Conflict flares over floor repair By Larry Smith
Student Writer Central State University officials and a local contractor are having a conflict over repairing the floor of the Broncho Fieldhouse. Water that leaked through the roof of the Fieldhouse Aug. 19 and 20 has done some damage to the floor, said Skip Wagnon, athletic director. John Keely, assistant athletic director, said parts of the floor have warped and will need to be sanded, painted, and resealed to be completely repaired. Nick Widener, comptroller, said the roofing job was public construction given to a local contractor, and if they won't pay for the damage, it will have to go to the company's bonding company. The bonding company is MidContinent Casualty Company of Tulsa. "I don't think we'll ever get to the insurance company," said Widener.
Ron Mattingly, director of purchasing, said there is damage to the Fieldhouse and the contractor, T.J. Boismier Mechanical Contractor, has been asked to repair the floor at no charge or pay to have someone else do the work. Tom J. Boismier, owner and president of T.J. Boismier, said there is no question his company is ultimately responsible for the repair work. However, he said, "You (CSU) owe me $70,000 and I intend to be paid before we do any more work, and if we need to we'll see you at the courthouse. "We have tried to contact Nick Widener by phone and have written to Dr. Bill Lillard to explain our situation and to request payment, but have recieved no response," said Boismier. "The only estimate that we have seen for repairing to the floor has been $5,000 from an insurance adjuster that CSU had look at it," he said. Please see Conflict on page 8.
CSU Library acquires new articles catalog By Dee Reisman
Student Writer The Central State University Library has a new on-line computer system called WilsonDisc, said Deborah Willis, computer assisted reference services librarian. The system was installed Sept. 29, and is available to students during regular library hours, she said. "The library has an on-line catalog which only lets the student find what collection of books CSU has. The WilsonDisc allows the student to pull up every article written on his subject in the past five years," Willis said. The WilsonDisc contains a Business Periodical, a Reader's
Guide to Periodical Literature and a Social Science Index on compact disc-read only memory, Willis said. "CSU had a system like WilsonDisc on a trial basis and received positive feedback from the students, but we were not pleased with it financially, so we looked around until we found WilsonDisc," Willis said. The computer, printer and the CD-ROM will cost CSU about $7,000. The software for the computer is on a subscription basis which will cost around $3,000 a year, Willis said. WilsonDisc is located directly east of the information desk in the library, Willis said.
Concert Chorale to sing cantata By Michelle Dooner
Student Writer The Central State University Concert Chorale and Chamber Players will hold a concert 8 p.m. tonight in Mitchell Hall. The main work performed by the Concert Chorale will be Johann Sebastion Bach's, "Cantata Four," said Dr. Lon Dehnert, assistant professor of music. A 16th century motet, an acapella composition based on a religious text and a 20th century jazz and folk song will also be performed by the Chorale.
In addition, the Chorale will sing a spiritual piece which is a 20th century adaptation based on a 19th century work. The Chorale will be accompanied by a string quartet and harpsichord. The Chamber Players will perform French and Italian madrigals. Admission to the concert is free to CSU staff and students with identification. General admission charge is $3, and is $2 for both senior citizens and nonCSU students.

Bush emphasizes oil issues By Valli Covert
Associate Editor GOP presidential nominee George Bush made a stop in Oklahoma City last week, where about 2,000 people waited in unseasonably cool weather to see him Wednesday at a rally on the Oklahoma County Courthouse steps. Bush hit on many campaign issues, but concentrated on oil and natural gas production. He said he would not rest until the Southwest shares in the economic growth of America. "We are not doing enough drilling at home. That is not acceptable and must change. "I want total deregulation of natural gas. Price controls should go," Bush said. "I know from...personal experience that a strong industry is vital to the defense of America," he said. "I know it has been a tough few years in the oil business. I spent 18 years in that business, and I keep an eye on the prices." Bush said the windfall profit tax has been eliminated, and "it is about time. "This week's dip (in crude prices) has been a tough one, but let me just say I know from con-
viction and I know from personal experience that a strong domestic oil industry is vital to the national security of the United States of America." Bush proposed providing stability with tax incentives, especially to the independent producers. He also spoke on the issue of gun control and said "I do not believe we need more federal gun control in this country." Bush said he would not raise
taxes. The taxpayers are not paying too little, congress spends too much, he said. Bush criticized Democratic presidential hopeful Michael Dukakis for the way he has allowed convicted felons out of prison on weekend passes in Massachussett's furlough program. "Some crimes are so brutal...we do need the death penalty," he said. Please see Bush on page 8. •
Kappa Sigmas win overall competition By William Philpott
Student Writer The big winner of Central State University Homecoming week activities was Kappa Sigma fraternity which took home $500 with a total of 921 points in the overall competition. The $300 prize for the best banner was taken by Alpha Gamma Delta. Despite the rain on Saturday, University FEST was deemed a success by organizers. "Two-thirds of all campus organizations turned out," said
Rex Humphrey, director of student activities. "We learned how to make it bigger and better for next year," he said. CSU President Bill Lillard told Humphrey that it was the best homecomming he had seen at CSU. Humphrey said that he tried to keep with tradition and personal memories of when he attended CSU. "We plan to make it fine in '89," he said.

"I don't think it was worth it for that short of a mission. Since they're trying to build the space station, they should have started it sooner and made the mission longer."
"Yes, very much. It was more intriguing because the commander said we weren't alone out there. I think the space station is awesome. I think it's really good that we are exploring, since space is one of the last frontiers. There is so much to be learned out in space, and we have the capability to learn."
"Yes, I really do. I think it's time we jump back into being the leader in space technology. It's a shame that we are so far behind schedule on the space station. I would like to see a United States and Soviet mission to Mars."
"Yes, so we can explore and find out information about space. I think there are a lot of reasons for exploring space, for example, advancement."
"Yes I do. I believe the technology we obtain for our efforts, makes it well worth the cost. The time for the mission was a wise choice."

Senate represents all students By Mark Mitchell Student Writer In recent weeks, there has been a flurry of activity on The Vista's editorial page over the Student Association Student Senate.
Commentary Perhaps some clarification or definitions are in order. Whether we know it or not, EVERY student attending Central State University is a member of the Student Association.
The Student Senate is the representative body of the students, for the students, by the students. The fact that this page of the paper has been, and is being used in its capacity as a public forum addressing the questions and circumstances of the senate is an encouraging sign; a sign saying, in effect, that what has been labeled "apathy" may really be a cry for more information. The issue at hand, should one want to consider it as that, is that exchange of information. Who is
Greek issues need Increased coverage To the Editor: Over the past few years at CSU, I have enjoyed reading The Vista. The Vista has a great ability to inform the campus on top news stories, but lately the front page of The Vista has had stories such as increasing sewer rates and a lawsuit from a punch in the nose.
Letter I am aware that these are important stories to a few people, but I would like to see more stories relating to the Greeks. I am a Kappa Sigma, and I was really
looking forward to the Homecoming issue of your paper announcing the winners of the Homecoming events and Banner Contest. It was not announced at all. I have spoken with several people who would like to see the Greek Sheet come back to The Vista, possibly doing a feature story on each house. This campus could see a greater involvement of students if the awareness and acceptance of the Greek system occurred. I hope you will increase your coverage of the fraternities and sororities in the upcoming issues of The Vista. Brett Rostochil
responsible for that exchange? And what kind of information should be contained therein? In this respect a certain amount of responsibility lies with the senate. There is an obvious need for an on-going, self perpetuating public relations program that in part uses the press, to achieve this very real need.
Others would place total responsibility in the hands of the press. In my opinion the responsibility of the press is to its readers, to report the news quickly and accurately, without bias so that the reader is given the opportunity to make decisions from the information provided.
Commuter comments on student elections To the editor:
In response to "Campus Quotes" on Oct. 4, I would like to give the viewpoint of a typical commuter to the problem of low voter turnout. First of all, I'm on campus five days a week and I never saw a voter booth for the student senate elections or any notice for the elections, or advertisements of the election. I for one would like to know a little more about who is on the senate and what it does.
Letter I think that Sean Smith is very wrong in assuming that not very many poeple care. Many people do care. As for his remark, "They have jobs and other things to do," he's right. Most commuter students have jobs (they need
money to go to school and to support themselves and their families,) and other things to do (such as be with their families, study, and if they do happen to have a little spare time, participate in extracurricular activities.) As a full-time member of Alpha Lambda Delta (the freshmansophomore honor society,) I know how hard it is to find time to do anything else. For a starting suggestion, more people might vote if voting booths were placed in all of the college buildings so all students will have the opportunity to vote without having to take time to hunt down the location of one booth. A second suggestion would be to advertise what the student senate could do for commuter students, for example, the parking issue and daycare for students with young children. Melissa Martin

Scholarship deadline set By Tina Davis Student Writer
Sophomores interested in applying for the $28,000 Harry S. Truman Scholarship can contact Dr. Randall Jones, professor of political science and faculty representative for the Truman Scholarship Foundation, before November 11. Jones said that up to $7,000 is awarded annually for tuition, books, and room and board. Those eligible for the scholarship will be juniors in the 1989-90 school year and pursuing a bachelor's degree full time. Student must have a college grade point averge of at least a 3.0 and be in the upper fourth of their class. The student must be a United States citizen or a United States national, according to the Truman Scholarship Bulletin of Information. In addition, the student must have selected a field of study that
will permit admission to a graduate program leading to a career in public service. Public service is defined by the foundation as "participation in government and related public service, with emphasis on potential leadership ability." According to the bulletin, each institution can nominate up to three people. A committee reviews such credentials as the student's transcript, student activities, political campaignes, community service, jobs and career considerations to determine who CSU will nominate, Jones said. At least one person from each state is chosen, and if there is enough money left in the fund, additional scholarships are awarded. According to Jones, an additional 50 scholarships will be awarded this year. Alternates are also chosen to receive the scholarship if the winner from that state is unable to at-

Variety CSU Chamber Players perform across state By Salina Nik Idris
Student Writer Central State University's Chamber Players are the "elite group in the orchestra," said Dr. Roger Strong, associate professor in music. The CSU Chamber Players perform around the state for high school orchestras, civic groups and conventions. "When they visit the schools they try to get some of the musicians to come to CSU," said Strong. The Chamber Players-consist of six to eight instrumentalists from the University Community Symphony. They play light pop and semi-classical pieces, which have to be memorized. The chamber players are Larry Moore, bass; Jennifer Simmons, cello; Jim Shelley, cello; Marsha Lobsinger, viola; Jennifer Pauley, violin; Misti Atteberry, violin;
and Davin Haraway, violin. The chamber players are scheduled to perform in numerous schools and concert halls beginning Dec. 1. The chamber players also went for a three/day trip to Lake Tenkiller this summer. Strong said they took this time to rehearse so that they can memorize their pieces ahead of time. "It paid off; they're way ahead," Strong said. Moore said they had a great time at Lake Tenkiller. "We rehearsed the piece by Rossini, and a piece by Sibelius, "Romance in C major" plus other various lighter pieces," he said. Moore said that he specifically requested to play the Rossini because in this piece the bass player has a solo part.
New alum ni director sets goals for CSU Encouraging participation of Central State University alumni with their alma mater is one of the major goals of new CSU Alumni Association Director Dr. Donald J. Hall. Hall assumed the title of alumni director on August 22nd. As an assistant professor of professional teacher education, Hall will split his duties, working part-time as alumni director and part-time as an assistant professor in the College of Education. W. Kent Todd, assistant director of the alumni association, will be responsible for much of the dayto-day operations of the alumni association. While the alumni association is the strongest bond between CSU and its former students, Hall hopes to encourage CSU graduates to become more involved for the specific purpose of providing financial assistance for scholarships for current and future students. With recent tuition increases and probable increases in the future, the cost of a college education is becoming harder to achieve for many students, said Hall. Most alumni are aware of the difficulty of obtaining an education with limited financial resources. Hall believes these alumni recognize the value of higher education experience and will be responsive to the financial needs of present and future students. Public support for higher education is not an unlimited source of funds and therefore, the private sector, represented by alumni, must provide more financial support to students, Hall said. Hall believes CSU has a large number of alumni who are stong and loyal supporters of this institution and what it stands for. He believes these alumni are willing to provide financial support for student scholarships if asked to do so. "As CSU approaches its centennial year of 1990-91, it seems to be a most appropriate
time to expand and strengthen the involvement of the alumni in the university," Hall said. One of Hall's objectives for the Alumni Association is to increase membership to 10,000 for the centennial celebration. With more than 4,000 dedicated members at the present time, he said this seems to be a realistic goal.

The Chamber Players practiced at the lake for about six hours a day. When they were through for the day, they went water skiing. "Part of the reason for the trip was to get to know the new members like Lobsinger and Shelley. It's easier to play if you know the people you're playing with because you will get use to their style of playing," Moore said.
The trip had to be paid for by the students, including room and board and transportation. "However, we hope to have a budget for future trips," Strong said. The Chamber Players will also audition for the Coleman International Competition in Pasadena, Calif. A competition tape of the players will be sent to California Feb. 13, and if chosen they will be
competing in April with other chamber players from around the country at the Ramo Auditorium, California Institute of Technology, Strong said. "We are just happy to compete and not really winning. It is a tough competition and if selected, we are lucky to even enter the competition," said Strong. The winner will receive $3,000 in the competition, said Strong.

Conoco offers scholarship to CSU computer students By Gia Walker
Student Writer This semester Conoco Oil Company and the Data Processing Management Association are awarding scholarships to Central State University computer science majors. "This is the first time Conoco Oil Company will be giving a scholarship to CSU," said Dr. Paul Fitzer, chairperson of the college of computer science. Amoco Oil of Tulsa and Phillips Petroleum of Bartlesville now offer scholarships to CSU computer science majors. These students take a field trip to one of the hosting companies to look at
Alto's background includes custom-made creations. She has also done custom dressmaking for more than 15 years prior to joing Palmer/Pletsch, and was educational director of a major department store. "It is not often that we have nationally known people in this area," Kness said. Since 1976, Palmer/Pletsch has been a major influence to pattern companies, such as Vogue and McCall's, Kness said. The workshop is open to the public.
their faclities each semester, Fitzer said. Sophomores, juniors, and seniors are eligible for the scholarships. Only four applications were turned in for the D.P.M.A. scholarship this semester, and a number have been received for the Conoco Oil scholarship which are still being reviewed, Fitzer said. The computer science program has been involved in a scholarship program for 15 years and award at least six or seven scholarships each semester. "We've worked hard at it (getting companies involved with CSU)," Fitzer said.

Children's author hired as literature consultant Children's Author Dian Curtis Regan has been hired as the children's literature consultant at Central State University's creative studies department. Regan will conduct four workshops throughout the year. The topic will include different aspects of writing children's books and magazine articles and how to write for teenagers. Regan is the author of three published young adult novels. "I've Got Your Number," was a 1987 Children's Choice Award Book. "The Perfect Age" and "Game of Survival" will be released in 1989. Regan also wrote several fiction and nonfiction stories and poetry to children's magazines, such as "Humpty Dumpty," "The Young American," "Turtle," "Children's Digest," and "Look
and Listen." In addition, she has written assignments for Writer's Digest, the National Writer's Club and the National Association of Young Writers. "How to Write for Teenagers When You Aren't One Anymore," one of Regan's most recent articles, is scheduled to appear in the Jan. 1989 issue of Writer's Digest. Regan is the Regional Advisor for the Society of Children's Book Writers in Oklahoma and Arkansas and is a board member of NAYW. She has also been the children's market columnist for Byline for the past five years. Regan received her B.S. in education from the University of Colorado. She taught elementary school in Denver for two years before moving to Amarillo,

Texas, where she established the West Texas Chapter of SCEW and taught "Writing for the Children's Market" at Amarillo College. "Jilly's Ghost" is a novel Regan is currently working on. "This is the one I'm most excited about," she said. "At first, it was a subplot from another book. But then the ghost took over and I decided I was really writing two books." "The last six years there's been an incredible boom in the children's market," she said. "Baby boomers are having babies of their own. So the timing is right for writers to recognize this as a viable pat of the publishing world. Children's book publishers are looking for writers. The jobs are out there."
Guild named faculty senator By Tia McElvany
Student Writer Dr. Thomas Guild, assistant professor of political science, has been appointed as new faculty senator of the liberal arts college . "There was a resignation and at the end of the filing period, I was the only one who filed, so I was appointed," said Guild, who was also on the faculty senate three years ago. "The faculty senate entails a lot of work and meetings. It's a service to the faculty and university," said Guild. According to Guild, one of the goals he would like to accomplish during his two year term is to build a sense of community at
Central State University. Because of the large number of commuters and night students, CSU does not have a central focus. The homecoming activites are an attempt to build that sense of community, said Guild. "I'd really hope the student body takes that serious, especially on campus students, because they can draw alumni and commuters in to share in on the fun," he said. "We need to have a special task force of students and faculty and do a four-month study to check with other universities to see what activites we can do to draw people," said Guild. "There are too many activites now that are not attended, such as concerts and plays.

Murdaugh Hall sponsors contest By Salina Nik Idris
Student Writer Murdaugh Hall has put up a contest to design its sweatshirts and t-shirts for this year, according to Melissa Travers, president of Murdaugh hall. Entries for the contest must be summitted by Oct. 18. The contest is limited to residents of Murdaugh hall. The sweatshirt designs will be judged by the Hall Counsel members during the Hall Counsel meeting on Oct. 19. The winner of the contest will receive a sweatshirt with the winning entry printed on it, said Travers. The cost of the sweatshirts has not yet been confirmed. Last year's price was $7 for a t-shirt and $14 for a sweatshirt. "A couple of entries have already been submitted and I know a few more people who are interested to enter," Travers said.

Bronchos come up short, ose 24-23 By Mark Finley
Sports Editor If Maxwell Smart were to describe Saturday's aame between Central State and Abilene Christian University, he would probably say, "missed it by that much" while holding his thumb and index finger about an inch apart. For the Bronchos, that's probably how they feel about coming oh-so-close to their first victory of the year as junior place-kicker Kelly Nasworthy's field goal attempt from 32 yards out sailed wide left with 2:13 left in the game, and let ACU escape Edmond with a 24-23 victory on the rain-drenched field of Wantland Stadium. The loss dropped CSU to 0-4 on the year and 0-2 in the Lone Star Conference standings, while the Wildcats improved to 2-3 overall and 2-0 in the conference. "He just missed the ball," said CSU head coach Gary Howard about Nasworthy's missed attempt. "He didn't get a good hit on it. I'm sure the field conditions had some effect on it." Nasworthy did hit on a 36-yard field goal with 8:47 left in the game that extended a Broncho' lead to 23-17. ACU answered however with a 60-yard drive in seven plays as quarterback Jim Gash, who replaced starter Stan Stephens at the start of the fourth quarter, hit split end Sean Grady from 11 yards out with the tying touchdown. Dennis Brown's point-after was good and the Wildcats were in front 24-23 with 5:54 remaining in the game. The Bronchos, following the kick-off, marched from their own 30 to the ACU 15 rushing the ball seven straight times. Halfback Pinkey Hurley helped set up the field goal try when on the second play of the drive he took a last second pitch from quarterback Zane Burgess on the right side and took off for a gain of 26 yards to the Wildcat' 34. Burgess took over from their has he carried the ball four of the last five plays to the ACU 15-yard line when CSU set up for the last chance field goal. ACU took the opening kick-off and promptly marched down the field as running backs Freddie Powers and Gerald Todd both grounded out small chunks of real estate. But the Broncho defense stiffened and forced the Wildcats to try a 34-yard field goal. Brown's kick sailed left as he too had problems with footing on the muddied field. After that, neither team was able to move the ball until a CSU fumble by fullback Glen Braxton late in the opening quarter gave ACU the ball at the Broncho' 45. With the ball on their own 48 following a second down sack by CSU's Terrance Tyler, ACU quarterback Stephens hit split end Sid Bloomer for 20 yards and a first down at the CSU 32 to end the first quarter. But again, the Broncho defense tightened and the Wildcats were forced to try a 44-yard field goal. Brown's kick fell short and CSU took over. Following an exchange of punts, CSU had the ball at their
own seven, when on first down CSU fumbled and the Wildcats recoverd at the 11-yard line. It took ACU three plays to score as Stephens hit Scott Allen on a 13-yard touchdown pass. Brown's point-after was good and the Wildcats led 7-0 with 11:19 remaining in the first half. Neither team could muster any offense in the second quarter until CSU finally .9..0t on the scoreboard with 3:13 left in the half. The Bronchos, after an ACU punt, drove 59 yards in only three plays as Burgess hit a wide open Hurley in stride along the sideline for 46 yards and the touchdown. Nasworthy's point after tied the score at 7-7. ACU came back quickley as they drove 67 yards in nine plays with Stephenson getting his second touchdown pass, this time to Mark Stevens from eight yards with only 14 seconds left in the half. Brown's point-after made the it 14-7 going into the locker room. CSU pulled to within one midway through the third quarter when Burgess scored from a yard out. The touchdown culminated a 41-yard, eight play drive following an interception by Chris Braxton. Nasworthy's extra-point was wide left however, and the Bronchos still trailed, 14-13. Following an ACU field goal that upped their lead to 17-13, CSU drove 61 yards in nine plays to take their first lead with 12:57 left in the game. The big play was a 33-yard pass to the ACU oneyard line from Burgess to split end Jerry Johnson. Braxton scored on the next play, and after Nasworthy's extra-point the Bronchos led 20-17. CSU got their last points on Nasworthy's field goal after Tony Bryan recoverd a Wildcat' fumble

at the ACU 38-yard line. A few plays later, Braxton was stopped on a third and one at the ACU 19, and Nasworthy came on for the field goal. The Bronchos on offense had
for 126 yards and one touchdown, while rushing for an additional 15 yards including two runs for first downs.
another good game as they totalled 300 yards. They rushed for 175 yards on 46 attempts, while gaining 125 yards on seven of 16 passing. Hurley led all rushers with 91 yards on 15 carries, and had one pass reception for 46 yards and a touchdown. Burgess hit on six of 11 passing
"We played extremely well offensively in the second half," said Howard. "We executed better and overall it was a great effort."

CSU cross country runner runs to compete By Kent Blessing Guest Writer Despite the fact that the United States is in the midst of a nationwide fitness craze, the sport of collegiate cross country is far from popular. In fact, Central State's cross country team is the perfect example of this "non-spectator" sport. And no one knows this better than CSU cross country standout Steve Heffernan. "It is frustrating at times, the team not getting any recognition," said Heffernan, a two-time All-District Nine performer. "But I'm not running for that reason and the rest of the team isn't either. It goes a lot deeper than that. I think that goes for any athlete who loves to compete, and I love to compete." There is something else besides competing that helps inspire Heffernan to run an average of 15
miles a day nearly every day of the year come rain, sun, sleet, snow or injury. "When I was a freshman in high school, there was a girl who was a friend of mine who ran track and cross country," said Heffernan. "Her inspiration for everything she did came from a verse in the Bible, Phillipians 4:30, which says, 'I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.'" "She was a very motivated person. She died in a car wreck her senior year. That really inspired me. Not the fact that she died in the wreck, but how she lived her life. It has inspired me ever since." A two-time NAIA Academic All-American with a grade point average of over 3.5, Heffernan has experienced great success during his CSU career. But according to the Biology/Pre-med major
from Jenks, there have been obstacles. "Last year I had a serious tendinitis problem, but I've completely gotten over that," Heffernan said. "My freshman year I had some knee problems and in 1985 I had a bad case of mononucleosis. Injuries are going to occur, but I love to compete." This year, Heffernan has nothing but good things planned. Sporting what he thinks is the best team that the Bronchos have had since his freshman year, Heffernan has his and the team's goals set high. "We really have a team concept this year," said Heffernan. "We have six runners every meet that contribute. Our goal is to get to nationals and finish in the top 10. That's a realistic goal." The Bronchos finished second and third in its first two meets of the season, with Heffernan placing in the top 10 both times and he
And fortunately for the young Central State cross country team, Heffernan is something they inherited.
feels everything is right on track. "We train to get better as the year goes on," Heffernan said. "The weather has a lot to do with it. You're talking about running in 95 degrees with 60 percent humidity at OCC (Oklahoma Christian College) in the early season to 40 degree weather and no humidity at nationals at the end of the season. I prefer to run in cooler weather anyway, and I always have my best times later on in the year. The same goes for the team." Being the only senior on the team, Heffernan has assumed the title of team leader. "Fyn a leader because I'm the only senior," Heffernan said. "I've been here four years and have been to nationals. I'm not a leader because I'm some phenomenal runner. It's something I've inherited."

Grad roughed up at rally By Valli Covert Associate Editor Some demonstrators were roughed up at an Oklahoma City rally Wednesday for Republican presidential candidate George Bush. One of the demonstrators, Central State University graduate Lee Allen, said he went to the rally to protest county employees being given part of the day off with pay. Upon entering the cordoned-off area, the Secret Service and an officer from the county sheriff's office asked him to remove a sign from a bamboo pole, Allen said. "As I was taking the sign off the pole, four College Republicans watched," he said.
Allen then said he went to the roped-off area just in front of where Bush would be speaking, and was stopped by the same four men. Allen said the four men attempted to physically remove him from the area by grabbing him by both arms, even though he had a ticket to get into the area. They told me they were in charge of crowd control, and no negative Bush campaign signs were allowed within sight of the courthouse, Allen said. The men wanted the sheriff's officers to remove him from the downtown area, but Allen said the officers refused, saying he had constitutional rights to be at the

Bush also said he would like to see the president given a line-item veto, and that he would not permit cuts in defense spending. "Bar chemical and biological weapons from the face of the earth, that is what I would like to do."
rally. Allen said he would have been upset about any partisan rally being held that would require county employees to be given any portion of a day off with pay. Allen said he was told the Secret Service said the courthouse had to be cleared, yet the prisoners on the top two floors were not removed, he said. Oklahoma County Commissioner Fred Snyder said Bush has a right to use a public building as the vice president. It cost the county about $9,600 to allow employees to leave work at 2:30 p.m., Snyder said.
"I believe America should be a kinder and gentler nation," he said. Throughout his 15-minute speech, Bush made no reference to his vice presidential running mate, Dan Quayle.
