Gang members, others, tip police in baby's death Wichita Falls, Texas -- Since a 6-week-old baby was killed in a drive-by shooting, Wichita Falls police have been hearing from some unexpected witnesses.

Many people, including gang members, have called with information about the slaying that police believe was gangrelated, Detective Bill Henning said.

"I'm amazed at how the gangs are coming together to give information to the police. Were not used to getting this kind of cooperation," Henning said. "I think it just goes to show that when its a child, it's everybody's business, even gang members."

Little Isabella Camacho was riding in a car Friday afternoon when the shooting started.

"It just appears to be your typical unplanned gang-related shooting," Henning said.

Sheriff opposed Waco cult child abuse probe Waco, Texas -- A welfare worker says a sheriff told her to back off a child abuse investigation at the Branch Davidian compound almost a year before the cult's bloody standoff with federal agents.

Joyce Sparks, former investigative supervisor of the cult case for Children's Protective Services in Waco, said the McClennan County sheriffs department may have "sabotaged" the outcome of the case, the Waco Tribune-Herald reported Sunday.

"I had one conversation with (Sheriff) Jack Harwell," Sparks said. "He said whatever those people are doing, if they're doing it inside the compound, it's none of your business, and you don't need to go out there."

Nigh addresses communication concerns President talks with faculty Nigh to hold meeting with about exchange of ideas UCO students Oct. 26

By Roy Howe

Staff Writer During a forthright discussion concerning a lack of communication between the teaching staff and the administration at the university, George Nigh, University of Central Oklahoma president, told the Faculty Senate last week that they do not allow him the opportunity to exchange ideas.

And faculty who do have questions or concerns do not take advantage of Nigh's "open door" policy he said.

Faculty Senate members expressed frustration with the lapse in what they hear Nigh say and what takes place.

"When I listen to you I hear an effort to communicate, but somewhere between you and the faculty it breaks down," said senate member Judith Lepuschitz, department of education.

See FACULTY SENATE, Page 8

George Nigh, University of Central Oklahoma president, will hold a meeting open to all students at 5:30 p.m. Oct. 26 in the

University Center Council Room.

"President Nigh is extremely sensitive to the needs and concerns of the students at UCO and would like to engage in a discussion with them," said Peter Regan, administrative aide.

Nigh said he just wants to update the students on the past year he has been in office and what is in the future.

"This is a part of our effort to make sure more people know about our master plan," said Nigh.

City council decision on ATO revealing This week's postponed confrontation between the Edmond city council and the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity is revealing.

At the heart of the matter, home and business owners near downtown Edmond signed a petition asking the Edmond city council to take action against the ATO fraternity, complaining of noise, drinking, and reckless behavior at and around their houses at 319 E. Main and 318 E. Hurd.

At first glance, the postponement appears to have been a stalemate--five years' worth of neighbors' complaints against the fraternity went unheeded, the city council and University of Central Oklahoma administration escaped having to deal with the issue, and ATO is free to continue its business and pleasure. Nothing significant happened.

Closer inspection, however, reveals an abundance of significant actions and comments surrounding the city council's decision to postpone.

That decision, in itself, is revealing. The 'ATO thing' is an embarrassment to the city and the university -- a reminder that college and community do not merge smoothly together with the precision both would like -- and the fraternity members must know it. This is apparent in that ATO declined to comment on the matter to The Vista, and in ATO sponsor Dr. James Bidlack blaming the problem on "miscommunication," saying that ATO has made an effort to make things better "over the years."

The most significant comment on the matter may well be that of Dr. Dudley Ryan, vice president and dean of student services at UCO. Acknowledging that the university was aware of every report made against the fraternity, Ryan said, "We don't want to condemn them (ATO) until all the facts are in.

Facts have been accumulating for about five years. If nothing is done about the problem right now, and complaints against the fraternity continue to go unheeded, then "all the facts" will never be in -- they'll just go on accumulating forever.

Fraternities have a reputation -- valid or not -- of rowdiness.

Anyone living in a college town had better expect that sort of thing now and again.

On the other hand, mothers have a reputation of caring about the safety and welfare of their children, and should not have to worry about reckless drivers plowing their yards up.

The only responsible action for the city council, the university, ATO, and the home and business owners of Edmond is to sort the facts out now, whatever they are, then do what is necessary to remedy the situation.

Baseball team earns respect

D

uring this past summer I had the opportunity to coach a summer league baseball team made up of college level players. Themajority of these players were from the UCO baseball team.

These guys were tremendously successful. They started out by winning the pre-season tournament, beating teams made up of players from Abilene Christian, Hardin Simmons, and a very good Midwest City team for the championship.

During league play these guys played more than 40 ball games, losing just seven, and then winning the post season tournament which qualified us for the National Baseball Congress (NBC) World Series in Wichita, Kan. This

tournament draws thousands of spectators, college coaches, and pro scouts as well as the 32 finest baseball teams in the country from Florida to Alaska.

Our first game we played in front of 8,000 people, only to lose a heartbreaker 7-6 in 11 innings.

However, we came back to win two games, beating a team from St. Louis and a team from Indiana before losing another heartbreaker to a team from Seattle 7-6 in 12 innings.

The University of Central Oklahoma is very fortunate to have young men like Cam Carrier, Ford Deaver, Rodney Foster, Greg Hall, Eddie Jeffcoat, Rod and Ryan Melton, Kaleb Schroeder, Shane Smith, Chad Tredway, and Harper Wilson representing it. These

young men are very dedicated to their sport. They play their hearts out and leave their guts on the playing field. They re also model citizens and some of the finest young men I have ever been around.

Coach Simmons has been a baseball man forever and very successful. He is very dedicated to winning and making this program one of the top programs in the country. He also demands that his players be model citizens as well as role models.

This spring I urge every student, as well as faculty and staff, to attend a Broncho baseball game.

You will be impressed with these young men. —Mike Jarman UCO senior

Professors should work for pay raise

T

his letter is concerning the Page 1 story in the Oct. 12 issue of The Vista. I have one question about these proposed pay raises: is performance ever considered in handing out these raises?

There are many good professors at the University of Central Oklahoma, and they should be rewarded.

There are also many inefficient

professors at the university and they shouldn't be rewarded.

Why should a professor who does research, holds good office hours, and bends over backwards to help his students get the same raise as a professor that does none of these things?

Where is the incentive for bad professors to start doing well if they're already getting a raise?

Performance evaluations are

already done by the students at the end of each semester, and since students are paying customers at this "business," shouldn't they have some say in who gets these raises?

A pay raise is good incentive for hard word, so why not use it that way?

Classes will be dismissed Oct. 18, 19 for Fall Break

Wesley Foundation plans to build new facility

By Terri King

Staff Writer The Wesley Foundation, a Methodist outreach ministry to the University of Central Oklahoma currently located at 311 E. Hurd, has purchased land and is making plans to build anew facility on the southwest corner of University Drive and Ayers.

Rev. Cooper Ames, Wesley Foundation director, said the twostory, 12,000 square-foot build-

ing will take approximately two years to complete. In the meantime, plans are being made to build a sand volleyball court and a gazebo for outdoor activities, and to perhaps rent the space for the use of other church and campus groups.

The new building will house several meeting rooms, a multipurpose room with seating for 300 and a library.

"Eventually, we hope to house offices for a metro campus ministry and branch out into a larger

Learning Resource Center offers help for UCO students

ministry than justEdmond," Ames said.

The cost of the new building is estimated to be $750,000, Ames said, with 50 percent of that amount collected before actual building begins and the remainder raised in the form of pledges.

"We want to be as close to debtfree as possible," said Ames.

When the project is completed, Ames said he would like to discuss the possibility of some university classes being held at the new facility; such as religion and

philosophy classes, comparative religions, values and bioethics, ethics and business and funeral science courses.

"We would like to support and encourage religion-basedphilosophy classes. We will prioritize ways in which we and other groups can cooperate. We are hoping the facility will meet our needs in the coming century and will be used by other groups, both Methodist and university,” Ames said.

The Wesley Foundation was formerly called the Methodist Stu-

dent Movement. The name was changed to the Wesley Foundation in the 1950s, after the founder of the Methodist church, John Wesley. Ames said the Methodist church did not start out as a denomination, but began instead as a campus ministry by John Wesley at Oxford University.

Ames said the first classes at the new Territorial Normal School, which is now UCO, was held in 1891 in the Methodist church building on its original site on the corner of Hurd and Broadway.

University of Central Oklahoma students who wish to reduce test anxiety before they take graduate entrance tests can receive help from the Learning Resource Center.

For the Graduate Record Exam (GRE,) the center has software measuring verbal, quantitative and analytical abilities. In each area, students choose a practice mode, review mode or timed test mode.

Students may work as long as they wish with the exception of the timed test.

The Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT) contains math review, tutorials and sample test questions in problem solving, data efficiency, reading comprehension, critical reasoning and sentence correction.

GMAT software also contains an authentic test. The math review requires two hours, the tutorials and sample sections require 30 minutes each and the authentic test requires three hours.

For students reviewing for the Pre-Professional Skills Test (PPST,) software covers grammar, math, reading and vocabulary.

Time required for PPST software varies with the student choosing the number of problems to answer.

Appointments arenot necessary, and there is no fee for use of the center by UCO students, staff and faculty.

The Learning Resource Center is located south of the Administration building in the President's House Annex. For more information, call 341-2980, Ext. 2520.

IRONICALLY, THE TIME TO START SAVING FOR RETIREMENT IS WHEN IT LOOKS LIKE YOU CAN LEAST AFFORD IT.

C

an't afford to save for retirement?

The truth is, you can't afford not to.

Not when you realize that your retirement can last 20 to 30 years or more. You'll want to live at least as comfortably then as you do now. And that takes planning.

By starting to save now, you can take advantage of tax-deferral and give your money time to compound and grow.

Consider this: set aside just $loo each month beginning at age 30 and you can accumulate over $172,109* by the time you reach age 65. But wait ten years and you'll have to budget $219 each month to reach the same goal.

Even if you're not counting the years to retirement, you can count on TIAA-CREF to help you build the future you deserve— with flexible retirement and tax-deferred annuity plans, a diverse portfolio of investment choices, and a record of personal service that spans 75 years.

Over a million people in education and research put TIAA-CREF at the top of their list for retirement planning. Why not join them?

Former U.S. President Bush to speak at Cowboy Hall of Fame

By Shelly Clark Student Writer

Former President George Bush will be the featured speaker at formal site dedication ceremonies for the National Cowboy Hall of Fame' s multi-million dollar capital expansion. The ceremonies will be held from 2:30 to 3:15 p.m Oct. 15 at the Oklahoma City museum.

Bush will also acknowledge his acceptance as an honorary member of the museum's board of directors during the ceremonies, said Dana Sullivant, director of public relations.

Bush was collectively elected as an honorary member to the board by the 45 member board of directors, representing 17 western states and chaired by Edward L. Gaylord of Okla.

David L. Boren, U.S. Senator from Okla., is also scheduled to

participate in the ceremonies.

Senator Boren is a longtime supporter of the Hall and was asked to be one of the principle speakers and he accepted, said Sullivant.

A headsman from the Bow String Society of the Cheyenne tribe will present the traditional "Blessing of the New Camp" ceremony, just as it was in 1965 at the initial site dedication.

The museum's 30 million dollar expansion began Aug. 2 and is expected to be completed by mid 1994. The construction will add an additional 140,000 square feet, tripling the size of the complex.

Additions to the new building will include a children's interactive gallery, five of the world's largest landscape paintings depicting the American West by acclaimed artist Wilson Hurley and galleries devoted Native American art and the myth and reality of the cowboy.

The "Joe Grandee Museum of the Frontier West" gallery will feature the largest collection of

19th century frontier artifacts.

"Joe Grandee is a Ft. Worth historian and collector who has a major collection of 19th century artifacts, one of the most significant collections in existence," said Sullivant. His collection ranges from cavalry firearms and uniforms to Native American material culture.

"The National Cowboy Hall of Fame is becoming the kind of institution that will allow visitors from around the world and future generations to touch the West, the most exciting place, time and experience in our nation's history," said Byron Price, the museum's executive director.

"This has tremendous national impact and is a landmark event," said Sullivant.

The ceremonies, which are by invitation only, are expected to draw approximately 800 people, including supporters of the Hall, government officials, key community leaders and others from across the West.

"UnsolvedMysteries,"an NBC program, is scheduled to air the plight of a University of Central Oklahoma employee who has mourned the disappearance of her daughter and granddaughter for almost 18 months.

Jackie Taylor has been searching for answers to the mystery surrounding the disappearance of her daughter, Wendy Loraine Camp, grand-daughter Cynthia Britto and relative Lisa Renee Kregear.

Camp's husband reported the three missing May 29, 1992 following an afternoon visit with Camp's 3 year-old son Johnathan Noe near Shamrock, Okla PUZZLE KEY PLAr0O(CR.

On the morning of May 29, Camp's ex-husband Chad Noe invited her for a visit. Due to limitations from multiple sclerosis, Camp accepted his offer, allowing Beverly Noe, Chad Noe's mother, to pick her up at her Oklahoma City home, Taylor said.

Accompanying Camp on her visit, were Cynthia, Camp's 6year-old daughter, and Renee Kregear, her sister-in-law.

Beverly Noe's testimony stated the three were let out the WalMart parking lot in Chandler, Ok. following an argument between Camp and Beverly Noe. The three have not been seen since. "'Unsolved' has a third success rate. We hope we will get the information we desperately need.

lies surrounding their disappearance and help make our case more concrete," said Taylor.

As a last resort, Taylor called on "Unsolved Mysteries" to help find answers concerning the disappearance of her loved ones.

After an initial interview and story run down, "Unsolved Mysteries" accepted the case. Following research of their own dates for filming were scheduled.

Filming for the show began the last week in May 1993, marking the one year anniversary of the disappearance.

Since Sept. 1992, Jackie and Ed Taylor have been to court eight times concerning visitation rights to their 5-year-old grandchild, Johnathan. In November, the Taylors will return to court to seek full custody.

The Economics of the Citibank

Classic Visa card. How Student Discounts and Price Protection contribute to upward growth.

A variety of factors have been

suggested as contributing to the economic growth of students, including (1) more lottery winners between the ages of 18 and 22, (2) a 37% increase on earnings from bottle and can returns, (3) more students doubling earnings in the lightning round of game shows, and (4) the Citibank Classic Visa® card. It's this last one, however, that affects most students. !I The Citibank Classic Visa card offers immediate savings to student cardmembers. You can save up to 26% on long distance calls versus AT&T with the free Citibank Calling Service from MCI! And you can capitalize on a $20 Airfare Discount for domestic flights! Savings on mail order purchases, sports equipment, magazines and music also abound. Maximize these savings with a low variable interest rate of 15.4% 3 and no annual fee, and you can significantly improve your personal bottom line (especially if one's net income tends No known picture of Hiishington smiling ex 'vs. Economists believe Washington was unhappy because he felt he could have received a better deal on war supplies.

City council postpones decision about complaints against UCO fraternity

By Terri King Staff Writer

The Edmond city council postponed for 30 days a decision concerning complaints from neighbors who live near the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity houses, located at 319 E. Main and 318 E. Hurd, to give the fraternity time to submit a proposal and take some action to resolve the problem.

Home and business owners in the Classen's edition near downtown Edmond signed a petition asking the Edmond City Council to take action against the fraternity. The council could order the fraternity houses to comply with certain guidelines or face removal from the neighborhood.

Kay Bickham, Edmond city councilwoman for Ward 1, said neighbors have been complaining about noise, drinking and disruptions at the ATO houses for five years to no avail. B ickham said the neighbors have asked the city council to level a nuisance designation against ATO if the problems are not resolved.

Lisa Winters, who has lived near the ATO house for seven years and who has three small children, said her main concern is with the drinking and reckless driving en-

gaged in by members and guests at the fraternity.

"We have had tire marks through our front yard. They engage in very irresponsible behavior and they're not taking into consideration families and small children in the neighborhood,"

said Winters.

Winters said she has complained to Bickham and spoken to the mayor and the city attorney about the problem.

Dr. James Bidlack, the ATO sponsor at the University of Central Oklahoma, said the situation between ATO and its neighbors is mostly a problem of miscommunication.

"Some things are being exaggerated and ATO has made an effort to make things better over the years. I am very pleased to see that ATO and the Edmond corn-

munity are working together to work out the problems," said Bidlack.

Dr. Dudley Ryan, vice president and dean of student services, said the university has been contacted and is aware of every report made against the fraternity. Ryan said the complaint is with the city and not the school. The university is concerned about every incident and may be considering revocation of the fraternity' s charter but, for now, it is premature for the school to take action, he said.

"We don't want to condemn them until all the facts are in.

UCO, Edmond police make agreement

By Joy McNutt Staff Writer

University of Central Oklahoma Police can now issue citations to be filed in the Edmond Municipal Court for violations of the city's laws due to a recent agreement between the City of Edmond and the UCO. The agreement means that UCO police will not have to write as many state traffic tickets and file so many reports at the Oklahoma County Courthouse. More campus police officers will be available at UCO, Chief Bob Roberts said.

Fines are also cheaper for Edmond citations than for state citations, said Lt. Ed Forbes, UCO Police.

One to 10 miles per hour over the speed limit is a $90 fine on a state citation, he said.

"The advantages this agreement gives Edmond is that it

brings more revenue, provides additional personnel, if needed, and the departments will be able to interact more with each other," Roberts said.

UCO' s primary jurisdiction includes the campus and all interior streets and University Drive from Second Street north and east to Chowning, and Bauman from Ayers south to Second Street, and Ayers from Bauman west to Chowning and Chowning north to University Drive.

All other areas and streets shall be the primary jurisdiction of the Edmond Police Department.

Each agency may call upon the other for assistance in their respective jurisdictions.

"We' v e arrested three people on Edmond warrants since Tuesday (Oct. 5)," said Sergeant Ted Jones, UCO Police.

"I think it's great. It gives us a chance to help them out and gives them a chance to help us out," said Forbes.

In addition to visiting with students that utilize his open door policy, President Nigh visits with classes, clubs and university organizations on a weekly basis," said Regan.

Student Activity fees will also be discussed at the meeting.

"Students at UCO pay three fees,

parking, library and activity fees.

I just want them to understand what they are going for. I'm just explaining the process of how we allocate them," said Nigh.

Nigh said that he gave the same speech last week to the faculty senate, the administrators and other staff and faculty.

"I would call it a town hall meeting," said Nigh. "That would be the best way to describe it."

Class Reunion You'll see lots of your friends... ... when you visit our friendly, modern center.

Plus you'll earn up to $150 for your plasma donation.

FACULTY SENATE Continued from front page

"So I would like suggestions on how we can improve this kind of transparency," she said.

"Let me respond and put it very bluntly," Nigh said. "Without any disrespect, every time I've come to talk with the Faculty Senate he (Fred Grosz, senate president) has told me ten minutes, no more. "...This is a very frustrating thing to me," Nigh said. "I can't say `I'm glad to be here and thank you for inviting me' in ten minutes if we are talking about a vision."

"I've said since the day I've been here, 'my door is open.' I've knocked a hole in the wall and put a door there and I leave it open and I've said, 'come see me. — Another senate member suggested that Nigh reiterate his objectives to his staff.

"I think maybe one way of looking at this is clarity of focus," said senate member Jennifer Endicott, department of education.

"Maybe you need to share your vision again with the higher administration and clarify that," Endicott said. "Because we hear what you say and I think one more time with them (administrators).

Nigh agreed and referred to a situation where a faculty member received information from an administrator which was contrary to what Nigh had said.

"I said, `did you call me and ask me if I had changed my mind,' and he said no.

"So what I'm saying is if I tell

you one thing and you hear it from someone else differently, you can either say, `that's not so because I know what he told me,' or you can call me and say, 'have you changed your mind,' and I'll be happy to answer it for you," Nigh said.

Endicott said she believes that the pattern of openness needs to be a continuous flow—from Nigh, to the administrators, to the faculty.

"I am more concerned about what is not shared below your office... I think that' s where the breakdown is," Endicott said.

Nigh responded saying that his openness is nothing new. "I want to work with you, I've said it for fifteen months."

Nigh' s open door policy where anyone can talk with him at any time he is available was questioned by senate member Stephen Law, college of Liberal Arts, who felt it could encumber Nigh.

"I think that the open door is a good idea and a useful metaphor, but at the same time, many of us cannot come to you with every concern that we have," Law said, "otherwise you would be really overburdened."

Law told Nigh he believes the openness belongs to members of the office of Academic Affairs "who we do most of our dealing with and there is not the clarity of the vision you have.

"By the time it filters down to our level there is a lot of dissidence," Law said.

Nigh said he understood the gist of Law's concern, but did not agree

with him.

Concerning what one faculty member called "the rumor mill," Nigh explained that he would rather be overwhelmed by the number of faculty at his door than to have half-truths spread throughout the university.

He said that faculty hearsay is only damaging his position and UCO. "You haven't helped me a bit, nor have you helped the university. You have weakened my position as president," Nigh said.

Faculty Senators agreed that Nigh' s presence on campus is helpful for the communication process. "I know that there are demands on your time, but boy that sure helps, if you'd come by the Red Bud room or something like this, we would sure like to see you," a senate member said.

"I'd like very much to do that," Nigh said. "But this first year I just didn' t have the time to be the smiling guy walking around campus and I miss that.

"But when you don't see me," Nigh said, "I'm in some smoke filled room somewhere trying to get something from the Capital or something from a Presidential Partner (donators to the university).

"I don't play golf, so I'm not on the golf course," Nigh said.

Nigh also suggested for faculty to come to him at night as he said he is often in his office until midnight or later working on ideas and concepts. "I spend the hours, you just don't see me."

UCO senior nursing students host rehabilitation colloquium Monday

By Scott Curry Student Writer University of Central Oklahoma senior nursing students hosted a rehabilitation colloquium featuring booths of their own design that illustrated the recuperative processes involved after the onset of debilitating diseases Tuesday afternoon in Ballroom C of University Center.

The booths showed the steps involved in rehabilitation from cardiovascular, or circulatory disease, lung problems, renal, or kidney failure, spinal cord injuries and stroke.

"Each group of students is required to design these displays as part of their classwork. Some have had experience working with these kind of patients and others are still in the learning process," said Allen Nottingham, a UCO nursing instructor.

Three judges from metro area hospitals judged the displays, said Nottingham, and their evaluations

will contribute to the grades received for the project.

Nursing student Bobbie Smith's group worked on the Cardiovascular Accident display which dealt with stroke victims and their rehabilitation.

"Our booth deals with higher needs," said Smith. "These are needs like the rebuilding of selfesteem and returning as close as possible to a pre-stroke lifestyle."

Group members said they had learned a lot during the three weeks they spent preparing their display, even though some of them had worked with stroke patients in the past.

"Today we're going to demonstrate how difficult it can be to perform day to day tasks such as brushing ones teeth and moving around," said Paula Harak, also a member of the Cardiovascular Accident group.

Visitors to Smith and Harak's booth were required to perform two functions as if they were stroke victims. They were first placed in a wheelchair and asked to negoti-

RESERVE

ate an obstacle course using only one arm and leg on the same side of the body. They then had to simulate brushing their teeth with their weak hand bound into a fist inside a rubber glove.

"We hope this will give people a small indication of what stroke victims live with on a daily basis," said Smith.

Nursing student S ue DeVilliers' group illustrated various spinal chord injuries and demonstrated by performing spinal exams on one another.

"Our group is more concerned with what we call lower needs," said DeVilliers. "Where as higher needs deal more with the quality of life, lower needs are the basic needs our bodies have in order to survive, such as oxygen, water and exercise."

"Not only is this a great learning experience for our nursing students, but visitors can also get information on the available resources that communities offer patients and families," said Nottingham.

Foundation proposes idea to bring wolves back to Oklahoma

By Judie Tennell Student Writer

Timber wolves have been extinct in Oklahoma since the late 1920s, but the Oklahoma Chapter of the American Endangered Species Foundation is trying to change that.

"Timber wolves co-existed with the Indians. After a couple generations of settlers, the wolves became extinct," said Mary Alice Valentine, director of Oklahoma Chapter of the American Endangered Species Foundation.

At a meeting with the Olda-

r -

homa Tourism Department, the proposal to build a sanctuary for timber wolves was discussed. The group is hoping for eight acres.

The meeting was held at 7 p.m.

Oct. 5 at the Norman Public Library.

Tom Krider, assistant director of state parks, was one of the representatives from the Tourism and Recreation Department at the meeting. Krider said 50 people were in attendance.

The Bureau of Reclamation, a federal organization, and the Oklahoma Tourism and Recreation Department had received a proposal this past summer to locate the wolves on state-owned land.

The timber wolves would be lo-

cated at the Little River State Park at Lake Thunderbird near Norman.

The area would be used for the wolf sanctuary and nature center, said Valentine.

"We were pleased, and thought the meeting was productive," said Valentine.

"The only opposition came from lease holders. The Horse Back Riding Stables just didn't want the competition for the limited amount of tourism dollars," said Valentine.

Support from three private individuals was offered in land close to the requested area. Valentine said that might be something to look at.

"We are not endorsing or opposing the proposal. We need additional information. First, the ability to secure funding. Second, they must demonstrate financial stability to fund the project over a period of time," said Krider.

Valentine's organization is seeking corporate, and federal funding to further the project. The project Jeceives no money from

the state organization. A fund for the timber wolves has been set up at Boatman's Bank in Norman.

"The wolves are apart of every child' s pioneer heritage," said Valentine.

Valentine said the wolves were raised on a bottle and are very tame. They came from the Timber Wolf Preservation Society in Wisconsin.

UCO student, former foster child helps others

By Joy McNutt

Staff Writer

University of Central Oklahoma student, Allen Carson, assistant director of the independent living program for foster teens at Citizens Concerned for Children (CCC), was a foster child himself.

As a foster child, he said he lived in six different places in two years when he was 8 to 10 years old. His mother and father were divorced and his mother was in and out of mental hospitals, Carson said.

He said CCC helped him start his independent life. Now he helps other foster teens through the CCC independent living program designed to provide emotional and financial support to foster youths, ages 16-21, to help them prepare for adult independence.

"Once, my mom left (home) and said she would be gone a few days and we (he and his older sister) would have to hide or someone would come and split us up," Carson said.

His adult brothers and the police did come, and they hid at friends' houses in their attics, he said.

When his mother came back two weeks or a month later, he said "We loaded in the car and drove. We stayed in motels and in the car."

Then his mother decided they needed to go home and change clothes. Everything was fine when they went into the house, but when they came out, police were surrounding the house, he said.

First, he and his sister were taken to the Oklahoma County Juvenile Shelter. They were told that they were not going to be separated but they were. His sister went to live with a much older brother and his family. Allen Carson was placed

in a foster home for a month. He was then moved back to the shelter, then to another foster home in Chandler.

"Everyone hated me because of the town bully (to whom he said he mouthed off)," he said.

Then when he left that foster home he moved into another foster home in Chandler—the bully' s home. Finally, he and "the bully" made friends and he had more friends at school, but his older brother had moved to a bigger home and wanted him back. He was in fourth grade.

ter for the teens serviced through CCC. He said that of the high school graduates serviced by CCC 70% go to college, 10% go to Job Corps or military and 20% go to independent living.

"Hundreds of kids are now being helped by CCC," said Conley.

All services are offered free.

CCC depends on grants, contribudons, and volunteer assistance to support operation of existing programs.

Mentor programs through CCC help young people who are "aging

licenses, GED preparatory classes, tutoring for high school students and correspondence course for high school credit.

For college students, CCC can provide tuition, books and materials, dorm rooms, meals, miscellaneous school fees and help for special needs.

Sometimes out of country birth certificates are needed and the state has no means of reimbursement for these fees, Conley said.

The birth certificates can cost $25.

—Allen Carson

Assistant Director of independent living program for foster teens at Citizens for Children He stayed with his brother in Oklahoma City until he graduated.

His mother had remarried and visited him a couple of times with his curly-red haired new baby sister, Teresa.

During that time, his brother grounded him for six months so he talked to his mother about living with her, Teresa and her new husband.

He said he changed his mind but didn't know how to tell her so he had visits cut off in court. He was in eighth grade, 13 years old.

After that, he made straight A's in school and sold newspaper subscriptions door to door for The Daily Oklahoman.

He was in a youth meeting in church when he read in a newspaper article that a woman had

back together and found out about a seminar (CCC)," he said.

CCC holds workshops for 15year-olds that encourage teens to stay in school, said Kathy Conley, independent living liason at the Oklahoma State Department of Human Services (DHS). They hold workshops to inform older teens about college and dorm life, and help them fill out financial aid forms, she said.

Since then, Carson has worked while attending college and volunteering for CCC. When Carson was 19 years old, the founder of CCC, George Harper, offered him an internship for the summer.

Now he works full-time at CCC and majors in family and child development at UCO. He holds workshops and writes a newslet-

The article was about his mother and baby sister Teresa, he said.

His mother had remarried, so no one in school knew it was his mother, but he said he still had to hear people talking about it.

He began drinking and smoking dope to hide from his problems, Carson said.

"It was OK for a couple of hours," he said, but the problems always came back.

Volunteer mentors help with budgeting, maintenance, apartment and job searching and assertiveness.

"Any time a child goes into foster care, there has been abuse," said Russ Urquhart, director of CCC. "We're trying to break the cycle of abuse."

CCC can help in situations where there is no provision for government aid to these youths, said Conley. Money is available for first apartment and utilities security deposits and housekeeping supplies. Also CCC can help with summer school tuition and books, driver education and driver

the cost can be $95. Vo-Tech equipment and supplies can also provided by CCC, she said.

"Foster parents often get kids with nothing but the clothes on their back," Conley said.

CCC has a clothing room to provide free clothing. Placement papers or a health card is required for eligibility.

CCC also works with the Edmond Women's Club, the Edmond Hope Center and the Edmond Parent Teachers Association to collect and refurbish toys for foster children and purchase appropriate gifts for teens, Urquhart said. More than 15,000 toys are distributed annually for Christmas, birthdays, new foster placement and monthly birthday parties at the Oklahoma County Juvenile Shelter.

Student Government Association to hold tailgate party Oct. 23 before football game

By Jimmy Hyde

Student Writer The University of Central Oklahoma Student Government Association (SGA) will have a Tailgate Party from 5 to 7 p.m. in Oct. 23 in front of Hamilton Field House.

In keeping with the spirit of

college football, the Tailgate Party takes place prior to the game. The tradition was started by fans arriving to the game early and killing the time by having parties in the parking lots of the stadium.

A tent will be set up and the SGA will be selling hot dogs and cokes to students and those attending the football game that night, said Carole Crawley, SGA

speaker of the senate.

"We just want to get spirits up and people energetic about the game and acquainted with the campus," said Crawley.

The Edmond Chamber of Commerce will sponsor the game and free tickets will be given out at local Edmond businesses.

The Bronchos will play Angelo State.

UCO student starts his own newspaper

By Rodney Gordon Student Writer A 23-year-old University of Central Oklahoma computer science student will begin a newspaper in November for the Oklahoma City area.

The Fitness Report will be tabloid size (same size as The Vista) and approximately 16 pages in length, containing "trends in biology, biomechanics, kinesiology, feature of the month articles and things like that," said Brady Redus.

"The paper has been copyrighted," Redus said.

As of right now, there is not much artwork or photography used, but if it can be afforded, the paper will eventually become more pleasing to the eye, he said.

The paper is expected to be available once every other month, and can be obtained, free of charge, at any of 23 Oklahoma City area fitness clubs, said Redus, also a fitness supervisor at the YMCA

Edmond Family Branch.

There is the possibility that the paper will be available more often if the first issue is successful.

"We've talked to several of the gyms and they all seem pretty interested," he said.

Working along side Redus is Imran Azhar, 34, a University of Oklahoma graduate who holds a masters degree in exercise physiology and a bachelors in marketing. Redus and Azhar are the only two working on the paper right now, Redus said.

"There is nothing at the local level concerning fitness," Redus said, "it's not just going to be for bodybuilders, it's for everybody, beginners, the general public, and there will be articles for those who want to get more technical."

Between 2,000 and 3,000 copies will be printed for the first issue, Redus said. More may be printed in the future, depending on how well the first issue does.

"Our costs are so low, I don't

think there is any reason we can't at least break even for the first issue."

Redus and Azhar plan to write for the paper and are looking for stories from doctors, nutritionists, fitness professionals, through research and from personal experience. They will eventually start doing features on locally prominent personalities, Redus said.

"As far as advertising goes, nothing is finalized yet. We've talked to a lot of hair saloons, some gyms, some physical therapy places, and then I have some personal friends that want the advertising space for things not really related to fitness," he said.

The paper will be printed by Bristow News Publishing in Bristow, Okla., the same company that prints Kids Today, a local Edmond publication, Redus said.

"Right now, we don't want to make much money, just enough to carry the paper; but hopefully I can make enough to support myself and my endeavors," he said.

UCO Presidents' Club to sponsor Christmas party for Edmond youths

By Michelle Peller

Student Writer The University of Central Oklahoma's Presidents' Club, a club for all presidents of student organizations, will hold its annual Christmas Party for Children from 3-5 p.m. Dec. 3 in the Ballroom of the University Center.

The Edmond elementary schools principals will choose seven to 12 underprivileged children and names of alternate children, in case more children are needed, said Susan Thompson, director of student activities.

The Christmas party will include games, singing of Christmas carols, decorating cookies and ornaments, refreshments, activities and Santa Claus' visit, who will once again be Bob Austin, advisor in the enrollment center, said Thompson.

"It's mainly to serve the needy children in the community," Thompson said.

Each child needs to be sponsored by two or more individuals from a UCO student organization or by a UCO department, said

Thompson.

In the past, it has only been student organizations that have sponsored the children, but this year the departments are asked to sponsor children as well, Thompson said.

Individuals who aren' t in organizations, UCO offices or departments can also sponsor children if they wish, as long as there's two or more sponsors per child, or can just come along to watch, said Thompson.

The sponsors are responsible for the children by providing the

We

gifts, accompanying the child while at the party and transportation to and from the party, Thompson said.

The sponsors are asked to only spend $20 for each child. The money is to include an article of clothing, a toy and a candy filled stocking which need to be wrapped and have the child' s name written on the presents, added Thompson.

The sponsors can spend more money if they wish, such as a basket of food for the family, but are asked not to at the party, only when they take the child home,

"Santa will pass out the presents," said Scott Weston, vice president of the Presidents' Club.

"As they're leaving, pictures will be taken with Santa, " Weston said.

The Presidents' Club has held the party in the past for the children and there has always been a good turn out, Thompson said.

The Student Council for Exceptional Children is providing the games for the children such as a bean bag toss and face painting, Weston said.

The Baptist Student Union is providing the music for the Christmas carols, added Weston.

"I think it's a great idea for the school to help part of the community," Weston said.

"I think it's an eye opener," said Thompson. "It makes you much more grateful for what you have."

The sponsorship forms that were sent to the UCO offices, departments and organizations need to be filled out and returned by Nov. 1 to the Student Activities Office in the Administration Building, Room 213, said Thompson.

'Dixie' written by black Yankees?

MONTGOMERY, Ala. (AP) — "Dixie," the anthem that was a fixture at political rallies "away down South' for 100 years, may have been written by a black family — and Yankees, no less.

A new book from Smithsonian Institution Press seeks to dispel the popular notion that the song was written by white minstrel performer Dan Emmett.

"Way Up North in Dixie: A Black Family's Claim to the Confederate Anthem" agrees with other history books that Emmett made "Dixie" a hit when he performed it on Broadway in 1859.

But authors Howard and Judith Sacks say Emmett learned the song from the Snowden family of black musicians in his hometown of Mount Vernon, Ohio.

If the research is correct, "it's a lesson in the irony of our history and the naivete of those who attach special meanings to a song," said William Ferris, co-editor of the "Encyclopedia of Southern Culture."

Album proceeds to help save Walden Woods project NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Don Henley's at it again, raising money to save Walden Woods.

A variety of country music stars got together to record "Common Thread," a collection of songs made famous by the Eagles.

"Everybody flipped out," said James Stroud, Nashville president of Giant Records. "They wanted to be a part of it."

Vince Gill sings "I Can't Tell You Why," Diamond Rio sings "Lyin' Eyes" and Clint Black does 'Desperado."

Travis Tritt, Little Texas, John Anderson, Alan Jackson, Suzy Bogguss, Trisha Yearwood, Billy Dean, Tanya Tucker, Brooks & Dunn and Lorrie Morgan also sang.

The Eagles, including Henley, Glenn Frey and Joe Walsh, broke up after releasing their last studio album, 1979's "The Long Run." A portion of the album's royalties will go to Henley's Walden Woods project.

She said she wants heterosexuals to know that gays and lesbians are normal people. And she joked about her decision to come out.

U.S. teacher in S. Africa stabbed CAPE TOWN, South Africa -- An American math teacher was in stable condition Saturday after being stabbed several times at the township school where she worked.

Police said robbery appeared to be the motive for Friday's attack on Danielle Marlin, 23, of Brattleboro, Vermont. She was being treated at Groote Schulz Hospital for stab wounds in the neck and left side.

Marlin, who lived on campus, was attacked as she made a phone call from a booth at the school late Friday. The injured teacher dragged herself to the home of the school caretaker, who took her to the hospital.

Police said Marlin's backpack was found in a garbage can, but could not immediately determine whether anything was missing.

By Scott Moore Student Writer

The University of Central Oklahoma football team traveled to Texas Saturday and ran into a wall; the Abilene Christian University defense.

The Wildcat defense, tops in the Lone Star Conference, smothered the UCO rushing attack and sacked Broncho senior quarterback Terry Payne seven times en route to a 28-10 victory over the Bronchos Saturday night in Abilene, Texas.

ACU quarterback Rex Lamberti led the Wildcat attack with a steller passing performance, completing 19 of 27 passes for 309 yards and four touchdowns. Abilene Christian picked up 437 yards total ofElise against the usually solid Broncho defense.

"They had a good veteran quarterback," said UCO senior cornerback Cleveland Phillips.

"He's probably the best quarterback we've faced so far this year."

Abilene Christian grabbed 19

the half.

UCO placekicker Chris Patterson booted a 27-yard field goal with 6:36 left in the third to pull within four at 14-10, but the Bronchos would get no closer.

Lamberti sealed the Bronchos fate with two more touchdown tosses, first to Sean Mains for a 48-yard scoring strike with 4:10 left in the third and then to Alvarez again on a 10-yard TD pass in the fourth quarter that capped a 92yard scoring drive.

first downs to UCO's 10. The Bronchos were held to just 135 yards total offense, their lowest total of the season. The usually potent rushing attack of senior tailbacks Tyrone Jones and Glenn Starks was nullified by a swarming Wildcat defense that held the Broncho ground game to just 27 total yards.

"They're the best defense we've faced so far this year without a doubt," said Starks. "They keyed in on our nishing game and stopped it."

"I don't think we knew exactly what type of defense they were going to run," Starks added. "The defense we worked on in practice wasn't the defense they showed

us."

UCO, now 4-2 overall and 0-2 in the conference, returns home Saturday to face Texas A&M Kingsville at 7p.m.

Abilene Christian improves to 5-1 on the season and owns a three-game winning streak over the Bronchos.

Volleyball team tackles LSC foes

By Justin Harper Vista Sports Editor

The meat of the Lone Star Conference schedule starts now for the Central Oklahoma volleyball team.

UCO will be on the road as they play three games in three days. The Lady Bronchos will start things off today with a 7 p.m. match at Lubbock Christian before moving on to a 7 p.m. match at Eastern New Mexico and a 2 p.m. contest versus West Texas A&M in Canyon, Texas.

UCO was 16-7 overall and 4-2 in LSC action prior to Tuesday's non-conference match against Southern Nazarene.

Last week the Lady Bronchos dumped LSC and infra-state rival Cameron in their first five-game match of the season 15-9, 8-15, 9-15, 15-7 and 15-12.

The Lady Bronchos also traveled to Hays, Kan. for

the NCAA II Regional Challenge over the weekend.

UCO split four matches at the meet, going 2-2 with wins over Western State and Fort Hays State.

Adams State and No. 15 Central Missouri handed UCO it's losses.

Senior Rachel Price barged into the UCO record book by becoming the schools all-time leader in career assists. The Edmond Memorial product has compiled 2,440.

Price leads the LSC in assists with 12.95 per game and notched 71 assists in UCO's four-game win over Fort Hays, for the second-best singlematch performance in school history.

The Lady Bronchos also kept up their penchant for kills in the tourney. UCO has five players who have over 150 kills -- Carrie Hare, Amy Hammond, Angie Schoof, Kristin Vincent and Brook Borden.

"We've lost two conference games but we can't let that get us down," said Phillips. "We may not be in contention to win the (conference) title now, but our attitude is to finish out the last four games and go out winning.

"We'll just have to put this loss behind us, try to improve and concentrate on Texas A&M (Kingsville)."
