North Central grants CSU full accreditation till 1992 By Shannon Blockcolski
Editor Continuing full accreditation was granted by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools to CSU, said Dr. Bill Lillard, CSU president. According to Lillard, CSU has always received accreditation, which means the programs offered by the university have been consistent with similar programs at other universities. Accreditation affects the students, he said, because if CSU wasn't accredited students would have problems transfering their cumulative credit hours to another university. Also, without accreditation, a student going on to graduate school may not be able to transfer work to other colleges and universities, Lillard added. The university's most recent compehensive evaluation by The North Central Association occurred in 1985-86. The next evaluation is scheduled for 1992-93. The North Central Association's continued accreditation report was effective Oct. 10, 1986, with no follow-up reports required. "This is the most positive accreditation CSU has received within past 39 years. We were granted accreditation with no stipulations, required reports or focused evaluations," Lillard said. "I am extremely pleased
with the report." In the 1985-86 report, the North Central evaluation team noted several aspects of the university which needed improvement. The report cited the faculty loads remained high, with some full-time faculty teaching 27 credit hours per year and 24 credit hours per year for graduate faculty. NCA's report also noted the need for more academic authority, saying "perception exists that the vice president (of academic affairs) has little geniune authority focused primarily on a lack of involvement in the budget building process, allocation of funds and general control over academic budgets." The report also said the university needs a more centralized strategic planning process, more additional classroom and laboratory space and more library research and graduate facilites. "As enrollment increases, additional financial support will be needed," the report stated. Lillard explained the no stipulation accreditation, "The concerns of the evaluation committee were not documented, so the review committee gave their decision to the executive committee, who said there is no need for follow-up reports until the next evaluation. "In the committee report received Feb. 3, the evaluation committee indicated that CSU meets the four evaluative criteria."
The evaluative criteria are that CSU has a clear and publicly stated purpose; that the University has effectively organized adequate human, financal and physical resources; that it is accomplishing its instructional purposes, and that the university can continue to accomplishe its purposes. "The report states that it was the assessment of the team that Central State University is providing quality educational experiences for its students," said Lillard. Central State University was first accredited by the North Central Association in 1921. A comprehensive evaluation occurred in 1979 with a focused visit in 1982. The most recent comprehensive evaluation occurred in 1985-86. "Obviously, it is good news for everyone associated with the university that accreditation has been granted for seven years, with no stipulations, no reports and no focused evaluations. It shows that we are doing our job," said Lillard. The North Central Association covers a 19 state region, which includes the Big 10 universities. "Their evaluation means the work of our students is acceptable by all of the colleges and universities in the nation," Lillard said. "It is really a compliment to our program and our faculty."
Student killed in accident By Shannon Blockcolski
Jay Leftwich
Jay Paul Leftwich, 23, CSU photo-journalism major, died at 4:13 a.m. Monday from injuries obtained in a motorcycle accident, according to Oklahoma City Police Officer Larry Hay. Leftwich was traveling northbound on East Lake Hefner Drive at a high rate of speed when he lost control of his motorcycle and fell into the street, Hay said. Leftwich was ejected from the vehicle at the southeast corner of Lake Hefner Drive and Britton Road, and traveled 240 feet before he hit the endpost of a guardrail. The motorcycle proceeded 330 feet north at the point of impact, Hay said. The estimated cause of death was massive trauma, Hay said,
but the OKCPD has not yet received the autopsy report. Leftwich was wearing a motorcycle helmet, he added. Born Dec. 4, 1962, Leftwich was a staff sergeant in the Air National Guard and a former member of the CSU ROTC. He also sang and played lead guitar in a local band. Funeral services were held 10 a.m. today at Hahn-Cook, Street and Draper Funeral Home chapel with Rita Matthews officiating. Internment followed in the Rose Hill Cemetery, Chickasha. Survivors include his mother, Nancy Leftwich, Oklahoma City; his father, Paul Leftwich, Tulsa; and his sister, Kay Beall, Salt Lake City, Utah.

Dr. Al McCormick, former psychology professor at CSU, participated in a symposium on "Changing Sexual Mores in the 1980's," at 9: 10 a.m. Tuesday in the Liberal Arts Auditorium. The symposium is the first in a series of forums sponsored by the New Plains Review literary magazine.
Regents name new academic vice president From Staff Reports The Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges has named Dr. Clyde T. Jacob Jr. as acting vice president for academic affairs at CSU. Jacob previously served as assistant vice president for academic affairs at CSU. He replaces Dr. James Perry, who resigned Sept. 1. "I am very pleased to have an opportunity to serve the university in this capacity," said Jacob. "I am pleased to have the president's confidence in my ability to provide the academic leadership of the university through the transition period. Dr. Bill Lillard, CSU president, said, "Dr. Jacob was named acting vice president in order to insure the smooth operation of the office of academic affairs. "With the present economic conditions of the state, we did not think it proper at this time to make a nationwide search for a new vice president," Lillard added. The office of academic affairs
has been reduced from a staff of three administrators to two, Lillard said. "There will be a search process at the appropriate time for a permanent replacement," he said. Jacob said he will work toward strengthening the communication linkages with other areas of the university. "We need to bring about a sense of positive mental attitude among each of us and all our activities at the university," said Jacob. "I have a personal cornmitment to becoming more in tune with the grass roots faculty of the university." In the area of academics, Jacob said he hoped to maintain a broad array of course offerings at various levels and protect general education offerings. "With the current economic conditions and the possibility of even further budget reductions, we may be faced with prioritizing program offerings. We may be forced to make decisions between which programs to enhance, stabilize or reduce," said Jacob.

Independent views backed
Opinion Page
By Susan Green Associate Editor The time is rapidly approaching for the public to make the decision on whom they wish to represent our government. One of the positions to be voted on is the candidate for governor. Up until Monday, the only two candidates I knew, or paid attention to, were David Walters and Henry Bellmon. I attended a Campus Conservative meeting, where I heard the opinions of Independent candidate Jerry Brown. Commentary I was quite impressed with the 51-year-old Edmond businessman who has owned the Truckers Village 2 on 1-35 for 19 years. Also an ordained Baptist minister, Brown hopes for an across the board tax cut to attract industry and attract more jobs, is opposed to school consolidation and feels government support of producing commodities in third world countries should be stopped in order to help our farmers. He also thinks state funded abortions should be stopped immediately and all opportunities pornographers have to influence children's lives should be removed. Brown feels there is a tremendous need for honest, straightforward leadership in Oklahoma, which is why he decided to run for governor. He feels he can relate to the problems due to his years in business operation. He seems to really care about people and knows what it takes to get Oklahoma back on its feet. Brown mentioned all of the bickering between Bellmon and Walters may be to his advantage. I think he's right, not only for this reason, but for his optimism, attitude and concern for our state.

Student Senate 'playing politics'? By Shannon Blockcolski
Editor In the Student Senate meeting held Monday, the senators voted not to donate $90 to the two organizations sponsoring the CSU 96th Birthday party, the Public Information Office and the Public Relations Student Society of America. Although the CSU 96th Birthday party may not be an important scholastic event, why can't a campus organization with an allocated budget of $18,710 part with $90 for a student activity? Especially since this organization calls itself the Student Association and all of its members were elected by the students. The requested money was only going to be used for t-shirts. Yet these shirts were to be given away to students as prizes during the event. The Student Association claims it is "concerned with the general welfare of
the student body," and "seeks to further the excellence of the university." Isn't a celebration of the the 96 years CSU has provided academic enlightenment a concern for both the students and the reputation of the university? Commentary
In addition, the Student Senate, with a 3-14 vote, voted down a resolution calling for all student senators to author at least one piece of legislation during the semester, or be removed from the senate. In the past, and present, the Student Senate has tried to recommend campus improvements to the administration. Yet the two incidents which happened Monday prove the senators may only be concerned with "playing politics," and not trying to improve the quality
of student representation or help other campus organizations. If resolutions like the above mentioned continue to be "shot down," maybe someone should look into the representative ability of the Student Senate. The students need a voice to speak for them to the administration, and the senate could concentrate more on the needs and demands of the students than "legislative procedures." Granted, serving on the Student Senate is a learning experience and people often make mistakes while attempting to obtain an education. These mistakes should be pointed out to the senators, or they will continue to make them throughout their career in politics. I hope the student senators aren't practicing to be just like the majority of national, state and local politicians; caring more about their pocketbooks than the people.
Letters:
Faculty member upset by administrator's comments To the editor
Monday, Dr. Clyde Jacobs, recently appointed Acting Vice President for Academic Affairs, spoke briefly to the College of Business faculty, then left without waiting for questions or comments. He opened by appealing to faculty to have a positive attitude, then proceeded to make negative and offensive comments regarding the office/position he now holds. Although the Academic Affairs Vice President has never lacked support from the faculty, he implied such was the case and ex-
plicitly stated that: "we've been wallowing in the mud for too many years" "... the office has suffered from lack of integrity." "... the office has suffered from lack of credibility." In my opinion, none of these statements is true. All Academic Vice Presidents during the "Decade of Decadence" (Russell, Cassins, Perry) have been given mountains of responsibility with virtually no support, power or authority from higher administrators and regents. This fact has
been cited by every North Central Accrediting team that has visited CSU in the last 10 years. The Faculty Senate has had a cooperative working relationship with Academic Vice Presidents for many years. The adversary of the Academic Affairs Vice President will not be the faculty ... we want that position, which has been our only advocate, to be strong and influential. Unfortunately, power will not come from below. Mary Jane Riley
Dimension News: World, state and local Drug suspects arrested Arrests of 24 people named by a grand jury as being involved in a drug ring headquartered in Oklahoma City, bagan Tuesday by federal agents and police. Each defendent named were charged with conspiracy to distribute narcotics or use of a telephone for drug transactions. Ronald Hoverson, special agent at the FBI's Oklahoma City field office, said the leaders of the organization alledgedly distributed illegal drugs through as many as 15 dope houses and several night clubs. He also said the latest defendents are believed to have receiced some of the drugs from Cuban dealers in Miami, Fla.
Nickles refuses debate U.S. Senator Don Nickles has announced he will not debate his opponent Congressman Jim Jones until Jones will tell the truth in the campaign. Nickles and Jones are arguing over congressional pay raises. Nickles said Jones has voted for pay raises at least seven times, whereas Jones said he never has. At an Ada airport Tuesday, Jones confronted Nickles asking for a debate, waving a handful of reports saying he had documented proof that he never voted for a congressional pay raise. Nickles then pulled a paper, what he said was a congressional record, and told him to look at the truth, which listed seven Jones' votes on the pay raise subject.
Bar raided for gambling After a raid at an Oklahoma City club, police are seeking felony gambling charges against 15 people who were arrested. Officers said they seized gambling paraphernalia and $5,000 in cash during the raid. Police raided the bar after they received an anonymous tip that one room of the bar was being used for gambling. The caller said the gamblers were shooting craps on a pool table and playing three card monte in another area. Police Chief Bob Wilder said the raid marked the first recent gambling arrest in the area.

Candidates face-off last time By Shae Naro David Walters and Henry Bellmon will face off for the final time Nov. 4, when the people of Oklahoma elect their next governor. Walters, the Democratic candidate and Bellmon, the Republican candidate, both feel a need for change in the higher education system. Walters and Bellmon both said, in their campaign platforms, that they feel colleges and universities play a cultural, political and social role in the community. Bellmon — "I, as governor, will carefully examine the work of higher education through a task force. I will work for the elimination of duplication in programs so funding can be targeted to produce truly fine educational opportunities and designated centers of higher education. "The integrity and financial management of the higher educa-
tion system has been questioned. These problems must be promptly resolved so efficiency and public support in the system can be restored." Bellmon said he felt the 27 institutions of higher education located throughout the state make access to higher education opportunities excellent. "The development of our higher education system,
however, was not undertaken with great care in defining the specific roles each institution would play in the overall system." Walters — "I will work to expand excellence to all areas of higher education. I strongly support the independent study of Oklahoma higher education system that is currently underway. "That study is expected to address the number and purpose of higher education institutions in the state, program duplication and funds administration. As
governor, I will carefully consider any recommendations made by these independent experts for improving the efficiency of the
system. "Those higher education institutions should not be penalized
for their research activities." Walters said he supports a partnership between business, government and the state's universities. According to Walters, "Working together they can be the force that leads our state to new levels of prosperity." Walters focused on the small business' and their role in higher education. Walters said he feels there is a need for courses to be directed at developing entrepreneurships and work skills relevant to small operations. Walters suggested increased utilization of telecommunications between universities would allow our limited educational resources to be effectively used statewide.
Prison emergency cited Tuesday, Gov. George Nigh declared a prison overcrowding emergency, allowing for the early release of 151 state inmates. The emergency also provides Larry Meachum, corrections director of the Oklahoma State Penitentiary, with the authority to order 60 days of emergency time credits for 3,115 inmates, which means each inmate is 60 days closer to his release dates. This emergency proclamation marks the second time since Aug. 31, 1985 that the controversial Emergency Powers Act has been invoked. By law, the corrections department must declare a state of emergency when the population exceeds 95 percent of its capacity for 30 consecutive days. The prison exceeded the mark Oct. 14.
Nigh's driver injured While attempting to make a U-turn in Seminole, Gov. George Nigh's chauffeur was injured when the governor's Lincoln was hit broadside. Nigh, who was in a police car in front of the Lincoln, rushed to his side, Oklahoma Highway Patrol Trooper Jim White said. The injured chauffeur was identified as Tom Fernick, a security officer, and has been released from Shawnee and Edmond hospitals in good condition. Nigh and his chauffeur were driving in a 25-vehicle caravan, a motorcade of Democratic candidates touring the state.

game is played on a two level, 10,000 square foot playing field, with tunnels, alleys, corridors and
cubbyholes. Photon was invented by the owner of Malibu Grand Prix, George Carter III. Carter created the game by using garage door openers in Dallas, Texas. There are currently twelve Photon centers in the United States and one in Canada. The object of the game is to score as many points as possible. Ten points are received when the opponent is zapped with the phaser. The opponent's phaser will then be inactive for five seconds. If the player is zapped by the opponent, the player receives negative ten points and his phaser is also inactive for five seconds. A player is only able to zap an opponent three times. After ward, the phaser must be cleared by zapping another opponent or their base. If a player shoots his own team members, he receives negative thirty points to his personal score. At the end of the game, the player's personal score is shown on a screen with the team score. The player's ultimate objective is to zap the opponent's base three
times in a row with out being zapped. A player will receive two hundred points upon hitting the base, and can only do this once a game. "What is nice about Photon is that you don't kill your opponent, you disrupt their electronics. You do not shoot the opponent, you zap them." said Alan Robinson, senior technition and manager of Photon. "Photon offers amusement for all ages. Most Photon warriors are college age," said Robinson. "I like the game because it's fun, it makes you feel like you are Buck Rogers, with the helmet and other gear you wear. It's a great game. You feel like a kid again, and you get plenty of exercise while playing the game," said a Photon player. Photon is free to observers. Players can pay a $10 year membership fee good for all Photon centers across the United States and Canada. The game costs $3 for a single six minute session. Photon is open seven days a week: Monday through Thursday 12 p.m. to 12 a.m., Friday and Saturday 12 p.m. to 2 a.m., Sunday 2 p.m. to 11 p.m. Photon is located at 4210 W. Reno.

Cancer seminar to present realities, myths By Jo Davenport
Student Writer "Cancer: Facts and Fiction," a seminar presenting the realities and myths of cancer, will be from 3 to 5 p.m. Nov. 13 in the University Center Creek Room. The seminar is sponsored jointly by the Oklahoma Cancer Institute and BEE WELL, sponsored by the College of Special Arts and Sciences. A boardcertified physician and a registered dietician will speak on cancer prevention and will be available to answer questions. The chance of getting cancer and dying from it is disproportionately higher among poor
Americans, regardless of their race according to a report from the American Cancer Society. The report showed a person's chance of survival after a diagnosis of cancer has more to do with his or her economic status than with racial or ethnic background. It also showed that poor whites and poor blacks overall fare less than middle class Americans of all origins. Dr. Richard Bottomly, an Oklahoma City oncologist, said that many poor Oklahomans lack educational awareness of the warning symptoms of cancer. Bottomly added that many poor Oklahomans don't have health in-
surance or means of transportation to get to health care facilities. Dr. Harold Freeman, chairman of the American Cancer Society Subcommittee on Cancer in the Economically Disadvantaged, explained, "The harsh realities of poverty create barriers to the health care system. "The poor focus on day-to-day survival. They tend to be fatalistic and powerless in their thinking. Poor people usually enter the health care system through emergency rooms with late stage cancer. "No matter how skilled the surgeon, no matter how advanced
Career Day speaker encourages students to pursue Oklahoma jobs By Jo Davenport "The greatest challenge facing Oklahoma college graduates will simply be finding jobs," said June Brooks, president of Brooks Oil Company in Ardmore. Brooks said that even though the job market is tough, she encourages young people to stay here and build Oklahoma. Brooks spoke to students and faculty Oct. 29 at the Career Day luncheon held in the University Center. Brooks, who has been in the oil and gas business for the last 43 years, discussed and presented an update on the energy business.
Brooks said Oklahoma will continue to be a boom-and-bust state until it becomes more diversified. She said because of the lack of diversification, Oklahoma has been hit harder than Texas. "Oklahoma has great possibilities for new entrepreneurs," Brooks said. "We need to bring new industries other than agriculture and energy into our state." Brooks said the number of petroleum land management majors in Oklahoma has dropped drastically because those graduates with PLM degrees are
having difficulty finding and keeping jobs. In her travels throughout the United States speaking to several organizations, Brooks has noticed a recent change in student's attitudes. She feels students today are more interested in, and concerned about, what's going on in the business world than they were in years past. "This attitude change could be the result of students realizing they must be well informed on current business affairs in order to find jobs in today's tough job market," Brooks added.
the technology, we cannot cure people with advanced, widely spread cancer," Freeman said. Robert Smith, 27, of Oklahoma City, who has been diagnosed as having late stage cancer, said he would have gone to the doctor sooner if he had been more familiar with the early symptoms of cancer. "Someone such as the Cancer Society should sponsor public service announcements on television and radio to familiarize people with the early symptoms of cancer," Smith said. The following are the seven basic symptoms of cancer as emphasized by the Oklahoma Division of the American Cancer
Society: unusual bleeding or discharge, a lump that does not go away, change in bowel or bladder habits, a sore does not heal within two weeks, persistent hoarseness or cough, indigestion or difficulty in swallowing and a change in a mole or wart. "It's a tragedy that poor Oklahomans don't realize that free cancer screenings and exams are available to them," Bottomly said. "If poor people die in America from cancer, because of what poverty means (that they aren't educated), then indeed poverty in itself is a cause of increased death from cancer," Bottomly concluded.

Bronchos try to spoil Aggie playoff hopes VISTA SPORTS
By John Helsley Sports Editor
With only two games remaining in a disappointing season, CSU's 3-4 football team will assume the spoiler role Saturday night when they host Cameron in a 7:30 p.m. kickoff at Wantland Stadium. The two teams are a marked example of what a difference a year can make. Last year, the Bronchos cruised to a 7-2-1 record while advancing to the quarterfinal round of the NAIA playoffs. Included in those seven wins was a 31-3 pasting of Cameron in Lawton. This season, injuries and a schedule loaded with NCAA teams (Cameron will be CSU's only NAIA opponent) and road games have left the Bronchos scrambling for a winning record. The Aggies, on the other hand, struggled through a 3-7 season in 1985. With 13 starters returning,
CU figured to be improved in '86, but few expected them to be as good as they have shown. After dropping their opener against Southeastern, the Aggies have rolled to seven straight wins and a No. 4 ranking in the NAIA polls. If they can get by the Bronchos, CU would almost be assured of a playoff spot as the top eight ranked teams qualify for postseason action. Defense has been the key for the Aggies this season. They are
allowing just 164.3 total yards a game and have given up an average of only eight points per game. The Aggies have been especially impressive in their last three outings as they have outscored Northeastern, Langston and Western New Mexico by a combined score of 140-0. Working from the Houston veer, the CU offense has produced a potent rushing attack. The Aggie backfield is averaging 309.9 yards a game on the ground with major contributors being Chuck Smith (543 yards and seven touchdowns) and Robert Whitman (530 yards and five TD's). Quarterback James Skinner directs the Aggie attack and is a third running threat in an already deadly backfield. Skinner has rushed for 376 yards and seven TD's and passed for three more scores and 422 yards.

"Cameron is a much better football team than they were a year ago," said CSU head coach Gary Howard. "James Skinner is a good option quarterback and Cameron is always tough on defense. "Our players still realize we have a chance to have a winning season and considering the people
we've played this season, that would be quite an accomplishment. "We'll be home for the first time since September, so our players are going to be excited about playing in front of their families and friends. We'll be ready to go."
Ex-Ol ympian Mills inspires Broncho runner By Mary Butler Student writer
Twenty-two years ago, a littleknown distance runner electrified 75,000 spectators as he battled from behind to pull off a stunning upset at the 1964 Olympic Games in Tokyo. Billy Mills, a young man who began his running career on an American Indian Reservation in Pine Ridge, S.D., came away with the gold medal in the 10,000 meter run and set a new world record in the process. At just about the same time, another young man was learning how to walk on an American Indian Reservation in Chinle, Ariz. This Saturday, Nelson Begay, the top runner on CSU's cross country squad, will defend his District IX championship and while he's running — he'll be thinking about the man who has inspired him, his hero, Billy Mills. Begay joined the CSU crew last year after a highly successful career at Haskell Junior College. The immortal Mills, who also attended Haskell, inspired Begay to
All-American honors six times while competing in cross country, indoor and outdoor track. While competing for CSU, Begay has set school records in the indoor three-mile and 3,000-meter runs, and also anchored the distance medley relay team that set a new school mark last season. The two-time NAIA AllAmerican also equalled the best ever Broncho performance at the National Meet, placing seventh in the cross country championship. Unlike Mills, however, who raced to glory sporting red, white and blue in front of throngs of cheering spectators, Begay runs with the support and encouragement of a different crowd, his family. Twelve strong, the Begay family lives on a Navajo Indian Reservation in Chinle, Arizona. The
front of the pack. As they neared the finish line they spotted their father eagerly looking on and remembered that it was Father's Day. Each unable to bring himself to defeat the other, they finished dead even. After the race they greeted their father with a loving "Happy Father's Day" and presented him with the trophy they had both claimed. This Friday, Nelson hopes to bring home another trophy that will make his dad just as proud. The District IX Cross Country Championship will be held at
Oklahoma Christian College on a course that coach Paul Parent calls "one of the most difficult in the area." Begay is the obvious favorite going into the race, however, Parent feels there are at least six contenders for the title. "If anyone is going to beat Nelson, though," Parent commented, "They'll have to run themselves to death. "He's just a super, top notch, person. He's the kind of person that a young kid could look up to as a hero." Somebody probably said that about Billy Mills several years ago.

family quietly flaunts a deep sense of pride and commitment that Nelson feels has contributed greatly to his success. The youngest member of the family, John, also attended CSU and was an outstanding competitor on the cross country team, claiming both a District IX championship and All-American honors. John and Nelson have a very special relationship. They have trained together and pushed each other for longer than either can remember. Unlike many sibling rivals, however, they have never tried to beat each other. They have often competed in the same race, but run only to achieve their individual best. In one particular race, John and Nelson were running a very close first and second, well in

Parent predicts tight District IX race By John Helsley
Sports Editor For CSU cross country coach Paul Parent, Friday's District IX Championships at OCC will provide results from two months of training by the Broncho harriers. After finishing second the last two years, the Bronchos are looking to regain the district title they held from 1981-83. CSU has won
• Intramural action reaches playoffs From Staff Reports In intramural football action Sunday, the BSU team captured the women's league title and four men's teams advanced into playoff action. The Alpha Tau Omega team remained unbeaten in the fraternity league with a 21-8 win over the Alpha Phi Alpha squad. They, along with the second place team, Sigma Tau Gamma, will move on to face the top two teams of the independent league. In a crucial game, the BSU men won by forfeit over Bay West when it was learned that Bay West used an ineligible player. The BSU team finished first in the league and East Hall and Bay West tied for second. East Hall advances due to tiebreaker procedures. ATO will play East Hall and BSU will take on Sigma Tau at 2 p.m. Sunday. The two winners will meet at 3 p.m. for the championships and the losers will play in a consolation game.

three and lost four district meets under Parent and with the Bronchos move to NCAA Div. 11 next year, this will be the last District IX action for the harriers. "Since this will be our last district meet, we have an added incentive to win, even our record and get on with life in the Lone Star Conference," Parent said. "There is no clear cut favorite. OBU is probably the most improved team, but in the end, it should be a three team race and one of the closest meets ever. "We have as good a chance as anyone and if we run the way we are capable of running, we should win it." OCC, OBU and CSU are the only District IX teams who par-

"It's important for our fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh men to have a good meet," Parent said. If they run good and our first four run as usual, we'll be in good shape." Parent indicated that OBU and OCC had distinct team styles. "OBU will not have a front runner, but they will have six guys pretty tight. OCC will have three runners challenging the lead, but their other four will be back in the pack."

Begay went on to finish seventh at the National Meet to earn All-American status. The top seven runners of each team score points and according to Parent, the Bronchos' seven are healthy and ready to run. Begay, Danny Charley, Steve Heffernan, Sean Smith, Willie Curleychief, Jeff Kraft and Sean Slavin are the runners who will be counted on to score for CSU. Ernest Proo, Devon Brandes and Carl Reherman will also run for the Bronchos. Freshmen Leander Eckiwaudah and Kenneth Lemons won't participate due to injuries.

Candidates present political goals By Susan Green
Associate Editor Students who attended the Campus Conservatives meeting Monday had the opportunity to listen to candidates present their ideas one last time before making their decision at the Nov. 4th election. Nancy Leonard, wife of Tim Leonard, candidate for lieutenant governor, said she felt her husband is respected by both Democrats and Republicans for being a man of integrity. In sharing some of his viewpoints, she
said Leonard hopes to create a better climate for already existing businesses, pass the right to work law and improve the workman's composition bill. "Tim is also interested in education, because this state is only as solid as its education. He wants to work with colleges more in the area of research and development, in adjacent with businesses. He feels he can make this contribution," she said. U.S. Representative Mickey Edwards, candidate for 5th District Congressman, spoke on
his concern for the individual separation and balance of powers in the government. He told students the first thing he would do next year, if elected, was to get Congress to work together. "Everything we do affects everyone's life. Sometimes we make decisions at midnight or 3 a.m. Those long straight hours in legislature are almost as bad as the British parliament. I'm going to work on changing the system," Edwards said. Items on the agenda Edwards said he hopes to change include:

The third speaker, Jerry Brown, Independent candidate for governor, said he felt it was time for strong leadership, regardless of the cost. "This race is getting more interesting everyday. The battle between Bellmon and Walters has
helped me tremendously, and I think this is the first time an Independent candidate can win the race," Brown said. Brown, who is an ordained Baptist minister, told students he was victorious when he started his campaign and will be when it ends. If Brown is elected, he plans to propose a 10 percent tax cut across the board, will strongly advocate the law enforcement and work on enforcing the death penalty. "I believe we can get Oklahoma turned around. The government and free enterprise has built Americans. If we get things back on our feet, Oklahomans will have jobs," Brown said.

Soph places fifth at debate contest By Sue Starkey
Student Writer Hard work and determination paid off for CSU debate squad members the weekend of Oct. 17-19 when Drew Duke, sophomore from Edmond, received the fifth place speaker award in the Cross-Examination Debate Association division of the National Debate Tournament in Emporia, Kansas. Finishing the first eight rounds of competition with a 6-2 win/loss record, Duke and his colleague, Craig Tomlin, sophomore from Tulsa, advanced to secondary competition, but were defeated by Houston Baptist University. Another team comprised of Tammy Fleming, junior from Oklahoma City, and Bret McClendon, sophomore from Kansas, also finished the first eight rounds of competition with a 4-4 win/loss record, but did not advance to secondary competition. "The Tournament held at Emporia State University is a nationally-ranked and extremely difficult competition," said Doug Duke, coach of the CSU debate squad. "We were pleased with the results this weekend."
