Woman shops with credit cards, traveler's checks of Amtrak dead KENNER, La. (AP) — A woman went on a $2,100 shopping spree with stolen credit cards and traveler's checks that had belonged to two women who died in the Amtrak crash last month, police said.

Dawn Taylor, 31, of Kenner was booked Tuesday night with two counts of unauthorized use of a credit card and 32 counts of forgery, said Sgt. Steve Caraway of the Kenner Police Department. She was released Wednesday after posting bond.

"Amtrak is shocked by these charges and will urge full prosecution of the suspect," the railroad said in a statement.

Caraway said Taylor rang up $1,600 worth of merchandise on the cards and used 10 traveler's checks worth $500 to buy clothes, toys and home furnishings from several stores in Kenner early this month.

Newborn spends day in tavern, parents jailed HILLSBORO, Ill. (AP) — A couple was jailed on cruelty charges after authorities accused them of spending 14 hours in a tavern with their baby the day after he was born.

Harold Jackson, 57 and Linda Ryon, 40, of Litchfield were charged with one count each of cruelty to children. They were arrested Tuesday and remained in the Montgomery County jail today. Bond was set at $10,000 each.

The child, Sammy Jackson, died of natural causes a month after he was born Feb. 11.

Assistant State's Attorney Tom Nevins said the cruelty charges do not stem from the death but from what happened at the bar Feb. 12.

After mother and son were released from the hospital that day, they went with Jackson to the barroom at the Veterans of Foreign Wars club in Litchfield, Nevins said. They stayed from 9:30 a.m. to 11:30 p.m., he said. lir See WORLD WRAP, Page 13

Regents approve fifth college, pay raises, disagree on VPs

By Roy Howe Staff Writer Although their approvals included the go-ahead to begin planning for a College of Fine Arts and a proposal for more pay to the university's faculty and staff, the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges could not agree on a proposal calling for the addition of two vice presidents at the University of Central Oklahoma.

Discussion among the regents about the proposed vice presidential positions during its regular meeting Oct. 15 at UCO was lively and "long, long, long.

"Way too long," said regent Joe Paul Hemphill who was against the proposal.

Regent Paul Barby said that he is "very much for" the addition of two vice presidents and that "there is a lot of concern where I don't think there is a basis."

Prior to a vote by the regents, George Nigh, University of Central Oklahoma president, stepped forward and withdrew the proposal.

Regents had cited that state regulations were not followed by UCO who had predetermined who would assume these positions.

Legislators need to take steps to toughen campaign laws

S

ometimes an apology is just not good enough. During a press conference held Friday by Gov. David Walters, he apologized to the state for his actions and took responsibility for mistakes in his campaign.

Walters pleaded guilty Thursday night to a single misdemeanor count of violating state campaign law in his 1990 campaign. Under an agreement with Oklahoma County District Attorney Bob Macy and Attorney General Susan Loving, eight felony counts were dismissed— two for conspiracy and six for Peri urY. Under the agreement, Walters was fined $1,000 and received a one-year deferred prison sentence. He also agreed to contribute $135,000 from current campaign funds to the state Ethics Cornmission.

Walters pleaded guilty to encouraging Norman attorney Richard Bell to break state law limiting contributions to $5,000.

Bell pleaded guilty in February to two campaign law violation charges. He was given a two-year deferred sentence and was fined $4,000.

Walters' punishment will now probably place a limit on what the jury can do to everyone else.

The perjury charges resulted from Waiters' signature on campaign reports that prosecutors said contained inaccurate information.

Macy and Loving could not force Walters out of office. Only a felony conviction could have forced him out of office.

His punishment has been a slap on the wrist. In one year, this will all be stricken from Walters' record.

If the law doesn't change, candidates will go on thinking that it is all right to violate the campaign expenditures act and be punished by a measly fine.

Legislators need to come together to improve the campaign laws. All candidates should be forced to keep more detailed records of their campaign. The legislators should make stricter enforcement when a candidate violates the campaign laws.

LETTERS

Dissection plays vital role, biologist says

B

efore I begin this letter, I would like to list the wild life and environmental organizations which I support, but I won't since they number beyond 15. This, so my opinion is not construed as that of a callused, hardened scientist— which I most certainly am not.

Now to respond to the editorial of 10-12-93: Yes, dissection is very important in the field of biology and those related professions, but it will never become outdated.

Every organ in every body of every animal is different. Your neart is not the same size as mine, nor is it in exactly the same place. /es, there are wonderful computer programs and books on the market today, but these are reference books. They are able to be used only in a single plane — in one dimension. Your heart is threedi rnensional. Can you take a drawing in a plane and relate that directly to a section of tissue under an electron microscope? A light microscope? A dissecting scope?

Dissection is not uncivilized.

People not spaying or neutering their cats and dogs, allowing offspring to be born expecting that someone else will want them, are uncivilized.

Unwanted animals are better off dead than left by the side of a road — how would you like to starve to death or be attacked and killed by a wild animal because you couldn't defend yourself?

These animals are certainly more helpful to society through biological research. Did you know the

number one reason for declining songbird populations all over the country is feral cats (cats who have been abandoned and become wild)?

People like you and groups such as PETA, thinking only of yourselves and how you feel about particular issues, rallying people around tragically misguided and misinformed opinions, are uncivilized.

You do not believe in dissections — that's fine — I'm glad you have your opinion. I certainly would not make you, or anyone, perform a dissection.

I would, however, make you sign an agreement saying that, no matter how sick you were, you would never use medications tested on animals (good luck finding those, by the way), you would not have surgery of any kind because surgeons are consummate dissectionists, you would never go to a hospital for treatment because all nurses, pathologists, neurologists, anesthesiologists, etc., have studied on animal and human cadavers.

Also, please agree that you will not eat meat— especially not pork, because fetal pigs come to biological research by way of the slaughterhouse (and don' t tell the rancher raising that pig that you're denying him the extra money for those fetal pigs, either).

Additionally, you must not own a pet, because if it becomes sick, you can not take it to a vet — who has dissected every possible animal including cows, and you can't allow that animal to stay sick, be-

cause that is uncivilized! Then there is the subject of animal slavery — which is really what it means to own a pet.

Please do not misconstrue.

None of us want an animal to suffer, but we should better delineate "suffering". Spraying hair spray into the eyes of a rabbit is archaic, uncivilized and outdated, as well as sad (I do not buy personal hygiene products tested on animals). Taking fetal pigs from a sow at the packing plant about to become bacon for your table, or humanely "gassing" an animal that would starve to death otherwise, are not slightly analogous to what you seem to consider mistreatment.

Emotional arguments ("split their soft bellies. Their guts go on display.") will sway the uninformed only to a point. People will eventually become curious, and will find out for themselves that if they seek any form of medical treatment or use medications of any kind, they are being solely hypocritical in believing that dissection is an outdated, uncivilized, archaic practice.

—Jenni Shackelford Graduate assistant

Editor's Note: The Oct. 10 editorial was not aimed at nor did it mention the use of dissection in upperlevel biology courses or medical uses. The editorial was aimed at basic level biology courses which are required of all students.

University officials meet with contractors to discuss proposals

By Jojo Takyi-Micah Student Writer

The first meeting to discuss proposals for contracting the heating and refrigeration services on campus will take place today between the university and Johnson Controls of Oklahoma City.

Proposals have been in the pipeline for quite a while, and it might take several months to be finalized, said Joyce Mounce, vice president of administration.

"We are looking at contracting a bunch of services," Mounce said.

Contractors bring in specialization and already have their staff and equipment, she said.

"Nobody will be forced to move," Mounce said. The staff in the department will be given the opportunity of either going to Johnson Controls or staying on the UCO payroll.

Some services have already been given out to contractors.

Johnson Controls are responsible for the Energy Management System, which is supposed to help conserve energy on the campus.

Miller-Norris Services have been contracted to clean seven buildings on the campus: Old North, Industrial Arts, Music, Home Economics, Health Science, Math and Science and Art. They clean the buildings at night and have one daytime personnel to attend to emergencies.

Mary Braun, home economics department secretary, said the PUZZLE KEY UMM ACA T CR AT,E CONNOTE! ATTAN HOODWINK U NI T T WEED A NT I FIE TIEDY E GAT AR E AST E L ECT RUTTED M .

present service is not "comparable to when we had a janitor down here. We would rather have a janitor in residence."

She said if the department had problems she had to clean it herself because it was easier than calling in the day time person.

In the art building, Jo Bachi, department secretary said of the service, "It's terrible." She said they have complaints everyday from staff and faculty members about places that have not been properly cleaned.

"The art building is difficult to clean and even dangerous. It needs extra care to clean properly, but generally, the service is going down hill," Bachi said.

McCauley said the service "might get better since MillerNorris have only been here since September."

David Lashley, director of sales for Miller-Norris Services, said the problem is that people are going through a transition as they adjust to the changes. Hitherto, the cleaning of the buildings was

done during the day but now they clean at night. He said people in the buildings are not used to not seeing the custodians around in the daytime hence the complaints.

"We use a system called team cleaning, different people doing different things, which leads to specialization and efficiency," Lashley said.

Comparing our services to what the University had before is like comparing apples and oranges.

They mainly clean at night as against the former system where custodians, staff and students got in each others way cleaning during the day, he said.

Miller-Norris provides a daytime custodian for all large square footage accounts, who takes care of emergencies and helps maintain a tidy atmosphere.

"We are saving the University about 25 to 30 percent of their original costs," Lashley said.

UCO will only give out services to contractors if that would save the university some money, Mounce said.

A four-day performing tour of Oklahoma and Kansas high schools by the University of Central Oklahoma Jazz Bands and Symphony Orchestra will culminate in a concert Oct. 28 in Mitchell Hall.

"The tour is a great way to expose our program to lots of kids," said Dr. Roger Strong, UCO music professor and organizer of the tour.

The group will perform Oct. 25-28 for high schools in Tulsa, Ponca City, Bartlesville and Wichita, Kan. Guest artist will be Steve Story, jazz violinist from Oklahoma City.

An alumnus of UCO, Story went on to receive his master's degree from Wichita State University in music education. He became a member of the Wichita Symphony Orchestra and led

Currently touring with Louise Mandrell, Story has performed with Tom T. Hall, Ray Price, Barbara Mandrell and Becky Hobbs.

"We'll have something for just about everyone," said Strong. "Classics to jazz to modern jazz, it should be entertaining."

The program ranges from traditional symphony literature to Miles Davis and Bud Powell.

UCO Jazz Bands have won several national awards, appeared on the Today show and toured Europe last summer.

The final concert begins at 8 p.m. in Mitchell Hall.

A proposal between the University of Central Oklahoma chapter of the Alpha Tau Omega fraternity and neighbors in the area will be on the docket of the Edmond city council's Nov. 8 meeting.

Leaders of the fraternity submitted a compromise to the city council Oct. 11 and a spokesman for the residents asked for 30 days to review the compromise.

Ward 1 Councilwoman Kay Bickham said people living in the residential area near the fraternity house, located at 319 E. Main St., have complained for years about noise and late-night partying at the ATO house.

Nineteen people have signed a petition asking that the city council to take action against the ATO house.

"The neighbors have some longstanding, legitimate concerns, but there are 80 members and pledges in a four bedroom house. If you had 80 seminarians in a four bedroom house, there would be noise.

I am not trying to minimize concerns of the neighborhood, just put them into perspective. This is not really a fraternity issue, it's a neighborhood issue," Nash said.

Nash said the nature of the area has changed. Twenty years ago, the area where the ATO house is now had fraternity and sorority zoning and there were seven Greek houses in the area, and most of the other houses in the area were boarding houses for college students.

"Now individuals and young families are moving into the area and converting old boarding houses into single family homes," said Nash.

Nash said the ATO house is privately owned and does not occupy school property.

UCO professor teaches seminar in Mexico

By Jennifer Palmer Student Writer

Oct. 20 VArrest—At 7:27 a.m. UCO student Michael Alvarado, 24, was stopped for speeding at Bauman and Hurd streets. He was ticketed for speeding and driving under suspension and arrested for possession of a controlled dangerous substance and possession of paraphernalia. He was taken to Oklahoma County jail.

Charges have not yet been filed.

said the fraternity has started holding its meetings on the UCO campus to cut down on the noise, and after 10 p.m., all non-residents will be required to leave the ATO house.

Nash said members at the ATO house had offered to erect an 8 ft. brick fence around the house.

"The fence was offered as a cooperative measure but the neighbors said that would not be necessary," Nash said. "Everyone has acknowledged that there is a problem and is working together on a solution."

Nash said ATO members are considering, and have been looking for, a new house for approximately six months.

"It's a complicated process for a fraternity house to relocate. You have to please all the undergraduate members and alumni. It's not like moving your family," said Nash.

Nash said such a move would take a substantial amoun t of money and the active chapter would be

University of Central Oklahoma professor Saba Bahouth spent the week of Oct. 11-16 in Guadalajara, Mexico, teaching a seminar course on strategic decision making.

Bahouth works in the department of decision sciences in the

College of Business Administration , and is part of the "globalization strategy" that provides opportunities for UCO professors to gain professional experience at worldwide universities.

The course was held at the University of Autonomy of Guadalajara and approached topics concerning simulation, management science and operational research.

"The program is set up to expand learning and research opportunities by opening up communication with other universities in the US., as well as other countries," Bahouth said.

Bahouth also said that his teaching experience in another country helps students because it broadens the base of communication and opinion for students that he teaches in his classrooms at UCO.

Local television station gives UCO students, faculty chance to ask governor questions

By Dayna Poarch Student Writer

The Oklahoma Educational Television Authority will record questions from University of Central Oklahoma students and faculty at noon Oct. 27 on the north side of the University Center. Gov .

Walters will respond to the questions during a segment of "S tate of

the State" which will air on OETA at 8 p.m. Oct. 29.

"Neither the governor nor his staff pre-screens the questions. His responses are spontaneous," said Bill Perry, producer of "State of the State."

The program was created to provide a forum for Oklahomans to ask the governor questions concerning state government pro-

grams, activities and other issues, said Robert Allen, OETA executive director.

"State of the State," which will air statewide, is a program that consists of questions from the public, a conversation with a major government administrator or cabinet secretary and discussions with a panel of three Oklahoma newspaper editors and publishers.

Residence halls to sponsor 'Safe Trick or Treat' Candy, refreshments, movie planned for parents, children In the past, West Hall has sponsored an annual Halloween party for battered women and their children from the Hope Center of Edmond.

R.H.A. has extended an invitation for them to attend as well, added Basham.

Basham said she needs volunteers to help and residents to take part, so the effort can succeed.

"Volunteer guides are encouraged to wear a costume, but dressing up is optional," Basham said.

"A Halloween symbol, like a ghost or jacko' -lantern, will be put on the room doors of residents who wish to be involved. We ask that the residents buy candy of their choice to give out, or they can ask their hall councils to donate candy," said R.H.A. President Scott Vanderpool.

R.H.A. will donate candy for the halls' offices to give out to the kids. There are plans for a movie and refreshments to be presented in West Hall lobby, Vanderpool said.

"We're hoping fora good turnout. We want this to be safe for the kids and helpful for the parents while giving the students a chance at community involvement," said Vanderpool.

For more information or for anyone interested in participating or volunteering, call Basham at Ext. 4029 and leave a message.

"Safe Trick or Treat," a free Halloween event for children of all ages, will be held from 6 - 8 p.m.

Thursday in the University of Central Oklahoma residence halls.

Student guides will lead groups of children from hall to hall in order to ask for candy from the residents, said Paisley Basham, Residence Halls Association vice-president.

West Hall lobby, which is across from UCO' s Max Chambers Library, is the starting point where parents and children need to arrive. Parents are asked to be sure not to forget containers or bags for their children to collect treats in, said Basham.

"We're really hoping that we'll get a lot of participation. The 'Safe Trick or Treat' is something fun for both our residents and the kids," said Basham. "Everyone who lives in Family Housing with children and those who have children attending the Child Study Center on campus are welcome."

"You have to open these positions for anyone to apply for," said Hemphill.

"The proposal had names attached. Our attorney said that if you are going to open up a new position, you can't have names attached."

Nigh first announced his plans for the new vice presidents last June at a general faculty meeting.

His goal was to promote George Avelano, dean of the graduate college, to vice president of graduate studies/research, and to place Carl Reherman, director of the Nigh Institute of State Government to vice president for Outreach.

Both were to retain their current responsibilities while receiving no additional pay for the new titles.

"Had itjustbeen a change in job titles, we wouldn't have to advertise," Barby said. "But since it included additional responsibilities, it was interpreted as creating anew position. I think that's where the confusion came in."

Hemphill said that with all the current publicity about too much administration and the need for funding, "I just didn't think so," regarding more top-level management.

Barby contends that the additional vice presidents would not put UCO over the limits on administrative numbers set forth by Gov. Walters or the State Regents for Higher Education.

State Regents have established limits for administrative costs at 12 percent of the Educational and General Budget for regional universities which is the sole source for their pay. This budget is funded from state appropriations, student tuition and most student fees.

"Creating these positions would not affect administrative guidelines at all. The University of Central Oklahoma is well beneath those numbers," Barby said.

time both on and off the campus investigating the new positions and how they would benefit the university.

Barby said that when he associates with someone in his line of business, the title of vice president shows that a person has the power needed to make the necessary decisions.

"The title of vice president indicates authority and responsibility of the university and gives them more negotiation power."

Barber added that the authority associated with new positions were not to interfere with academic authorities.

Nigh said that he would reassess the proposal and possibly return it to the board at a later date.

College of Fine Arts

The regents approved a recommendation to begin the planning process for a potential reorganization of the UCO College of Liberal Arts.

The request is to explore the possibility of a College of Fine Arts. The proposal states that the current academic year will be the timeline for exploring a variety of organizational models.

Nigh has said that seven scenarios for the new college were presented to him by Clifton Warren, dean of the College of Liberal Arts.

The expectation is to have the review process completed by the end of the current school year and to have the new college in place by the 1994 fall semester.

According to the regent's agenda, broad based faculty participation will be utilized along with external consultants to assist with the planning and review process.

Regent Barby said that there is a lot of excitement about the new

college, "but it needs to be handled carefully and in a manner that doesn't jeopardize any of the current programs."

Pay Increases

Also approved by the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges was a five-part pay increase proposal that will affect 403 full-time faculty and 537 full-time staff members at UCO. Effective next month, full-time non-faculty salaries will be increased to a minimum of $13,000.

Beginning Jan. 1, this will rise to $13,400. Nigh told the Faculty Senate at their October meeting that he will increase this yearly.

Also to begin next month is an equity and classification pay adjustment for non-faculty members.

More than $300,000 is budgeted to bring employee's salaries to comparable levels of those who assume the same duties.

Jan. 1, 1994 a $400 increase in pay will go to both full-time faculty and full-time non-faculty at UCO. These increases will be excluded for the president and full vice presidents.

Also effective Jan. 1 will be a longevity bonus plan for all nonfaculty full-time employees.

This plan will provide a single, annual payment starting at $200 for those who have been with UCO for one to five years and increases by $50 each five years. After an employee's 15th year the annual payments will be $350. These are paid on an employee's anniversary month of employment.

Faculty summer compensation will also rise from the current 80 percent to 85 percent of their prorated annual contract. This is a promise Nigh said he made to the Faculty Senate more than one year ago and that he hopes to eventually rise to 100 percent.

SALUTE Continued from front page

The luncheon featured several guests from the Edmond and Oklahoma area including Mayor Randel Shadid, Hans Brisch, chancellor of the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education and the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges.

Robin Ropp, a senior oral communications/public relations major, provided the invocation for the event.

George Nigh, president of UCO, was master of ceremonies at the luncheon.

Nigh began his remarks with a list of things he would not do, all of which he did do afterward. Nigh also included in his speech the usual punch for the master plan which is currently underway at UCO. Dr. George Avellano, dean of the Graduate College, announced the winners of the Excellence in Teaching awards. These awards were given out to metro area teachers for grades kindergarten through 12.

Sharon Carney, an assistantprofessor in political science, introduced all the speakers who would speak throughout the course of the three day salute.

Paul Barby, president of the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges introduced Boorstin.

"It is a very humbling experience," said Barby upon introducing Boorstin.

Boorstin opened by thanking everyone for their "extensively generous remarks." He also added that it was nice to be on the outskirts of the "second greatest town in Oklahoma."

Boorstin grew up in Tulsa and graduated from Harvard College.

He earned his doctorate from Yale University and as a Rhodes Scholar he earned two law degrees.

He was Librarian of Congress from 1975 to 1987 and before that director of the National Museum of American History.

Boorstin gave a speech on what he called an "American Humanism."

He spoke on the danger of ethnicity, as seen in the Bosnian conflict.

"Anybody can destroy himself with ethnicity, it makes the whole outside world into a scapegoat," said Boorstin. He said Americans must not allow that to destroy us, "we must be able to resist it and inoculate ourselves against it."

He spoke of three distinctive features of American history: Americans have never had a religious war, unlike many of the other great countries of the world, the only civil war was fought for the liberation of a certain group of people and America has never suffered a hostile invasion.

"We area nation of immigrants, we have made the newcomers our builders," said Boorstin.

He said that two-thirds of the books in the Library of Congress are in other languages, 468 represented, "we are a nation of nations, our library must be multicultural."

He said that people can change and adapt because of a common language.

"The only authentic American language is a broken English ,"he said.

He also commented on the "much maligned American standard of living."

"No other country has set up a standard of living as a model for its society."

Boorstin ended his speech by quoting Frenchman Andre Miroux.

"The U.S. is today oustandingly the country that assures the destiny of man. This is the first time in history that a nation occupies such a place without having sought it."

"There has been an Assyrian empire, Byzantine empire, a Roman empire, there is no American empire, there is however a United States."

"For the first time a country has become a world leader without achieving it through conflict, and it is strange to think that for thousands of years one single country has found power while seeking only justice," he ended.

WORLD WRAP Continued from front page

Deaf advocates shun manufacturer's hearing device ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Ethics and science are clashing in an increasingly heated debate over a surgically implanted device that restores limited hearing to the deaf.

Cochlear Corp., the manufacturer of the device, says its product is simply a technological alternative to deafness that is not meant for every deaf person.

But deaf advocates say they are incensed by the perception among the hearing and medical communities that any amount of hearing, even if surgery is required to achieve it, is better than none.

Cochlear manufactures cochlear implants, electronic devices that convert sound waves into electrical impulses and transmit them to the inner ear to reproduce sound.

More than 7,000 people, including 2,500 children, have received the implants since they were approved for adults by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in 1985. The implants were approved in 1990 for children.

The cost of the two-hour implant surgery and follow-up medical care is $25,000 to $30,000.

"It's time for the public to respect us as deaf people, not as handicapped people," said Cliff Mores, president of the Colorado Association of the Deaf.

"The handicap is the public's perception. Deaf children need not be reminded they are different. With cochlear implants, they will always feel they are different. They are not handicapped or disabled. They are deaf and bright."

Doctors are perplexed by the controversy.

"I am befuddled at the reaction of the deaf community to cochlear implants," said Dr. Karen Jo Doyle, an otalaryngologist at the University of California-Irvine.

Cochlear defender Selesnick said he understands the deaf advocates' point, but he nonethless believes the implants are worthwhile.

UCO reactivates Spanish honor society

By Michelle Peller Student Writer

Sigma Delta Pi, a national Spanish honor society at the University of Central Oklahoma, has finally been reactivated as an organization at UCO. A student must have a 3.0 overall grade point average as well as in the Spanish courses, said Gayla Grovenburg, president of Sigma Delta Pi. One must be enrolled in Spanish and must have completed at least one upper division course of Spanish literature and have completed or enrolled in one other upper division course, Grovenburg said.

Currently, the Spanish honor society consists of 40 members,

she said.

One must have completed three semesters of the college work or the equivalent, said Dr. Marcia Hakala, chairperson of foreign language.

A student must rank in the upper 35 percent of the sophomore, junior or senior class and must have interest in the Hispanic culture, Hakala said.

Those who declare Spanish as a major and meet the requirements are screened(by Hakala) and those who qualify are sent invitations to join, said Hakala.

The National Spanish Honor Society has not been active since 1986, said Grovenburg.

Students were initiated this past summer and this fall. The next initiation will be in the spring, Hakala said.

"We're just trying to get it up

and running again," Grovenburg said. "I'm really glad to see we're getting it reactivated."

"Los Amigos," a Spanish club, is in the planning stages. The club will be sponsored by Sigma Delta Pi, Grovenburg said.

"The goal(of Sigma Delta Pi) is to further promote the knowledge, information and understanding of Spanish culture and literature," said Hakala. "I think it's a very valuable organization."

"I think it's a wonderful organization that affords students the opportunity to be more completely involved with the study of Spanish language and the culture," Grovenburg said.

The officers of the Spanish honor society are: Gayla Grovenburg, president; Jennifer Lamb, vice president; and Nuri Creager, secretary-treasurer.

CINCINNATI (AP) — In a new twist on one-stop shopping, two grocery chains are selling flu shots.

"It's been wild," Pat Nowak, director of public relations for SeaWay Food Town Inc. of Toledo, said Wednesday.

"We thought if we got 50 a day we would be ecstatic. We're averaging 338 a day."

It's also been educational. "People don't like to get their flu shots in the meat department," Ms. Nowak said.

In the program that began Sept. 13, SeaWay charges $8 a shot, alternating three days a week among its 45 supermarkets in northwestern Ohio and southeastern Michigan and its 20 discount drug stores.

The Kroger Co., the nation's largest grocery chain, started offering A-Beijing flu shots last week. It also charges $8 a shot and plans to offer vaccinations in 50 Cincinnati area stores, four stores a day, through Nov. 5.

Registered nurses administer the shots.

Its a great idea to come by the store before this select group runs out.

Developers of cream to shrink women's thighs beseeched by calls MILWAUKEE (AP) — Developers of a cream that appeared to shrink women's thighs say they have been besieged by callers wanting to know where they can buy it.

"It's been horrible," Dr. Frank Greenway, a clinical professor at Harbor-UCLA Medical Center in Torrance, Calif. said Thursday. "I figured I was presenting to a bunch of scientists. I can't deal with this. I'm back here trying to sort out patients."

Greenway presented the research on the cream this week in Milwaukee at the annual meeting of the North American Association for the Study of Obesity. He reported that a teaspoon of the cream a day for five weeks reduced women's thighs by one-half inch to 1-1-2 inches.

Obesity researchers continued to express doubts about whetter the cream was truly effective and whether its effects would persist, but many agreed that further testing was in order.

Bronchos play numbers game

By Justin Harper Vista Sports Editor After seven games the Central Oklahoma football team is following the same trail it blazed last year. The Bronchos started out with four wins a year ago, and again with four wins this year.

UCO suffered four-straight losses after the fast 1992 start, and after last Saturday's 38-7 loss to Texas A&M-Kingsville the Bronchos had dropped three in a row.

The numbers look the same in the win-loss column, however, UCO has put up several other numbers of importance this season.

Numbers that were not present during the '92 campaign.

The numbers game: >- Linebacker Jason Melkisetian is closing in on the school record for tackles in a career. The 6-foot-2, 234 pound seaior had recorded 378 tackles as of Oct. 16, which is good enough for third place on the career tackles chart. With just four more stops Melkisetian will overtake Ross Dodson, who played from 1976'79, and 42 more tackles would

give the Collinsville senior the record. Dale Alexander (1972-'75) is the current chart topper with 418 takedowns.

In his 33-game UCO career Melkisetian has recorded doubledigit tackles 24 times.

• Broncho QB Terry Payne is on the verge of becoming the first UCO passer since Glynn Walker to throw for over 1,000 yards in a season. After seven games Payne was 64-117 (.547 percent) for 966 yards. Walker, tossed for 1,646 yards in 1985.

• Tailback Tyrone Jones continues to travel up the career-rushing and career-total offense list.

The Wagoner senior ranks sixth in both categories. Jones, who's career rushing total is 2,825 yards on 673 carries for a 4.1 yard-percarry average, needs 140 yards to surpass Eddie Goodlow and move into fifth place. Jones would also move up to the fifth spot on the allpurpose chart with 228 more yards, he currently has 3,112.

• Receiver Chad McCoy has now caught a pass in 17-straight games. McCoy's 22 catches this season is the most since Willie Henderson grabbed 37 in 1983.

The Bronchos drove into Javelina territory six times but came away with only seven points.

UCO was penalized 12 times, often at key points in a drive.

Texas A&M outgained the Bronchos by only 73 yards (375302) but all but one of the Javelinas scoring drives contained at least one big play that covered 25 yards or more. Texas A&M also turned two UCO turnovers into touchdowns.

"We just didn't get any

breaks," said UCO senior quarterback Terry Payne. "We were moving the ball effectively it just seemed we couldn't get a break.

We'd drive 50 yards and then end up punting because of a stupid penalty."

Payne, averaging 127 yards a game throwing, passed for 200, completing 17 of 30 attempts for one touchdown and one interception. Payne needs just 34 more yards to become UCO' s first 1,000 yard passer since 1985.

The dynamic duo of senior tailbacks Tyrone Jones and Glenn Starks combined for just 95 yards on the ground. Starks led the Bronchos with 62 yards on 16 carries while Jones picked up 33 yards on the same number of attempts. Texas A&M' s Larry Young led all rushers with 115 yards on 7 carries.

Jones and Starks were 1-3 in the

Lone Star Conference in rushing coming into the game.

"They were tough against the run tonight," said Payne referring to the Javelinas defense. "They ran that three linebacker look which is hard to run against. They put us in a bind and made us throw a lot, and we like to throw, but we would rather be balanced."

UCO falls to 4-3 on the year and 0-3 in the conference. Texas A&M improves to 2-5 and 2-0 on the year. The Javelinas own an eight game winning streak against the Bronchos and were pre-season picks to win the conference.

The Bronchos drove to the Texas A&M 24 yard line early in the first after a 38-yard run by Starks. The drive stalled and Chris Pattersons'40-yard field goal attempt fell short after being partially blocked.

That set the tone of the game for

the Brochos.

The Javelinas then traveled 76 yards in eight plays to go up 7-0 with 1:33 left in the first on a drive set up by a 38-yard run and a 26yard pass.

In the second period, UCO, down 14-0, drove to the Javelina 38 on a 16-yard pass from Payne to senior fullback Keith Brown. A holding penalty on the next play moved the ball back to the Texas A&M 49 then Payne threw his only interception of the game to end the drive.

The Javelinas capitalized on the turnover when quarterback Joe Menchaca threw a 32-yard scoring strike with 5:55 left in the half to up the score 21-0.

UCO answered by going 74 yards in 11 plays with Payne hitting senior tight end Ryan Orton for an 8-yard scoring toss with 1:38 to go before half.

The Bronchos would get no closer.

The Javelinas went up 28-7 early in the third after UCO's Cleveland Phillips fumbled a punt.

A Payne touchdown pass to flanker Chris Gillispie off a fake reverse midway through the third was wiped out by a ineligable reciever penalty. UCO would turn the ball over on downs.

The Javelinas would score two more times to put the fmal numbers on the board. A 26-yard feild goal made it 31-7 with 13:33 left in the game and a 4-yard run

by Larry Young two minutes later made it 38-7. Two big plays of over 50-yards each set up both scores.

Late in the fourth, UCO drove inside the Texas A&M 40 but two consecutive personal foul penalties stalled the drive.
