Ceremony to honor war dead

Mislaid plaque found

By Mark Mitchell

Student Writer A plaque honoring Central State University students who died in Vietnam will be presented to the CSU museum on Nov. 11 by the CSU Student Association.

The original presentation of the plaque had been planned for 1968. The presentation was delayed and eventually forgotten, but the Student Association maintained the plaque until the end of the war.

The plaque itself was put in a drawer where it remained undisturbed until 1987, when it again came to light.

Senate Speaker Tim Kalman found the plaque, and his first reaction was, "You gotta be kiddin'."

Kalman said he felt that the men whose names were inscribed on it were not receiving the respect they deserved. "I really wanted it

to be displayed," he said.

Kalman suggested hanging the plaque in the office, he said, but "others were more interested in hanging other things on the walls."

Kalman said he worked all summer verifying names against the official list of Oklahoma's war dead, which he got from the Department of Veteran's Affairs.

"I believe that the list is correct and complete. The surprising thing was the number of enlisted men on the list," he said.

Kalman said this became "a personal project, and that with all the renewed interest in Vietnam over the last two or three years, this would be a good time to do this."

Kalman also said that he hoped it would be part of the "healing process" for the Vietnam Veterans.

"The people who protested the war are okay now, and the guys who were in the (National) Guard but supported the war are okay now, but what about that guy who went? He's just now getting recognized for a job he did 20 years ago."

The presentation ceremony is scheduled to take place at 1 p.m.

Nov. 11 in the University Center Ballroom.

Scheduled speakers include Oklahoma State Sen. Mark Snyder, Edmond Mayor Carl Reherman, CSU Reserve Officer Training Corps Cmdr. LTC Terry May, and Larry Spears, SA President 1968-69.

Any interested persons may attend the ceremony, and there will be a reception afterward. For more information, contact Tim Kalman or Monty Townsend, at ext. 3337.

Diploma resolution passed

By Mark Mitchell

Student Writer Fall graduates of Central State University will receive their

Scholarships offered in L.A. The Central State University English department is accepting applications for fee-waiver scholarships from full-time students who are English majors or minors. Students must be Oklahoma residents.

Five scholarships, two based on merit alone, are available for the current fall semester. In addition, five will be awarded for the spring 1989 term.

Students interested in applying for either or both semester scholarships should pick up application packets in the English department office, Liberal Arts 101B. Deadline for application is Nov. 22.

diplomas in December, should CSU's administration approve a resolution passed by the Student Association Student Senate Monday.

The legislation, authored by Senate Speaker Tim Kalman, addresses an issue brought to his attention by several fall graduatesto-be, he said.

Kalman said a number of people have expressed concern over having to wait until May to receive their diplomas.

The present school policy is to mail diplomas to fall graduates after the spring graduation ceremony, said Kalman.

"All I'm asking is that they (the CSU administration) mail the fall graduates their diplomas in the same timely manner as they do the spring graduates," Kalman said Wednesday.

The legislation points to the diverse nature of CSU's student population, which does not fit the standardized four-year mold where a student enters in the fall of one year and graduates in the spring four years later.

One part of the resolution states that fall graduates suffer economically and professionally from not having a diploma in that period of time between fall graduation and the spring mailing.

Solutions to the problem include the university issuing diplomas to graduates both in the fall and spring, and mailing them to recipients within the same number of days following each semester.

Implementation of the new policy would be effective for students graduating in Dec. 1988.

Also, should the school deny this request, a public explanation would be made and alternative methods announced.

This last portion was debated in the chamber as a possible out for the administration in its consideration of the resolution as an amendment, but the amendment failed.

CSU President Bill Lillard will consider the resolution after SA president Lisa Coen reviews it and makes her recommendation.

Viewpoints Pre-born infants more than tissue

By Martha Giglio Editor

"It's nothing. It's just tissue."

Those are frequent comments pro-abortion advocates make when defending the termination of the life of an infant prior to birth.

The controversy over abortion has raged since the Roe vs. Wade decision 15 years ago. One fundamental disagreement is whether a human baby is a person with rights at the time of conception or after a "wanted" birth.

Surgeon General C. Everett Koop makes the argument that prior to conception, a female's egg cell is one of thousands in her body. The same holds true for sperm cells in a male. Once fertilization takes place, though, an entirely new entity has been created. It is neither simply female nor male, one of thousands. It has become uniquely different and separate. If left alone, it will develop into a human being. That is the only definitive point at which it can be stated a life has begun.

Koop further points out the trap abortion proponents make for themselves when they say abortion is alright prior to the time the infant is viable, or can live outside the womb. Many babies are aborted presumably before this point, only to be born alive. They have heartbeats. They breathe. Were it not for the coldhearted neglect they encounter, or outright abuse, they would continue to live.

Pro-abortion individuals don't like to consider the babies aborted at this point. They prefer to think of the antiseptic suction of babies in early pregnancy, when their forms are less recognizable, and they would be unable to survive.

But countless women wait until the second trimester or even later when infants can survive. The point Koop makes is, at what point should we abort infants? A minute before birth? A minute before that? Where is the cut-off point? At what point does he have the right to live? At what point is he human?

In addition, the age of viability varies as scientific break-throughs improve the survival rate of premature infants. An infant who was not viable even a few years ago now would be with medical aid.

Editorial The pro-abortion people would draw an entirely arbitrary line.

Based on nothing. They have no logical argument for their line.

And presumabley the line could be re-drawn by later individuals who interpreted it differently.

Can such a fundamental decision be made so arbitrarily and transiently?

Also of interest is the claim that abortion-on-demand will decrease the number of unwanted babies, and presumably the number of abused children. Hogwash. In the first place, unwanted may only be a temporary feeling on the mother's part. Secondly, studies done on the subject have shown that child abuse has risen dramatically over the years since abortion has been legalized.

Also, countless childless couples would give anything to adopt those unwanted babies.

Abortion is not the only alternative.

Further, these people argue that abortion will eliminate mentally or physically handicapped individuals who would not have meaningful lives. Who makes them the judge of what is or is not a meaningful life? They are playing God. And they are treading

dangerously close to the arena of selective breeding which was the condemned intent of Nazi experimenters. At what point would they decide an infant was perfect enough to be carried to full-term and allowed to live?

Another argument often heard from those favoring abortion rights is the claim that the majority of Americans favor abortion.

Aside from the fact that polls are not necessarily scientific and trustworthy, what difference does it make? If the majority of Americans favored the right to suicide, would that make it right?

And closely linked to this is the argument that it is an issue of privacy. Again, suicide is a private decision, but it is against the law in most communities. Just because the woman wishes to make a private decision does not give her the license to do whatever she wishes. And what about the father's rights? He helped create

the infant. Shouldn't he have some say?

Abortion proponents also rarely mention the physical and psychological ramifications of abortion to women. According to the surgeon general, women who have sustained abortions have difficulty in succeeding pregnancies, and are more likely to become sterile, develop pelvic disease or have an ectoptic pregnancy at a later date.

Women also suffer emotional after-effects such as remorse, guilt, depression and anger, said Koop. Some even become suicidal. Problems become especially aggravated when a women is unable to have other wanted babies as a result of damage sustained during an abortion.

What men and women need to consider is assuming responsibility for their actions once they reach sexual maturity. If they are

old enough for sexual relations, they must be responsible enough to take the proper measures to assure an unwanted pregnancy does not occur. They must learn to practice proper contraceptive measures and not rely on abortion as a method of birth control. And they must remember that hundreds of couples would give anything to adopt their baby should they not want it.

At this point in time, it is impossible to prove that human life begins at conception. Abortion advocates like to believe that it begins at birth. They have allowed the slaughter of millions of babies based on that belief. But the risk they run is chilling. What if they are proven wrong? What if a year from now a scientist is able to prove life begins at conception?

Should this nation be willing to take that risk? Does it want that on its conscience? How would this era be judges by future generations?

Vote Dukakis 4*

By Valli Covert

gip

Bush is best

By Martha Giglio

Associate Editor

Editor

Massachusetts Gov. Michael Dukakis has a number of things working for him in the upcoming presidential election.

Dukakis is for the sanctity of our constitutional rights.

He believes in the constitution, which is evident by his being a card carrying member of the American Civil Liberties Union.

This man is intelligent, he is bi-lingual, he has a certain charisma and stamina about him that his opponent, George Bush, does not have.

Bush has been trying to discredit Dukakis on a number of issues, but has not suceeded.

Vice president George Bush is the better qualified man to be elected as president, because of the years of experience and leadership he has acquired in Washington and abroad.

In one television commercial, Bush emphasises that under "Dukakis' furlough program" a convicted murderer was allowed out on a weekend pass and brutalized an innocent female. What Bush fails to say is, the furlough program was started by a Republican years before Dukakis became governor.

Bush is also more realistic in his defense strategies. It is imperative that the nation maintain a strong defense, and Bush shows superior wisdom in planning to use unfavored weapon systems as bargaining chips to induce the Soviets to reduce or eliminate their arms systems, rather than drop them outright, as Dukakis intends to do.

In terms of values, Bush's desire to return to traditional values echoes the wishes of mainstream America. The liberal ideology of the past two decades has led to a break-down of families, and the splintered approach of appeasing small minority groups rather than the majority has had disasterous effects.

Of greatest import, though, is the possibility that the next president may have the opportunity to appoint several supreme court justices during his term in office. This will have wide ranging affects, and the nation needs the benefit of the wise, conservative judges Bush would be apt to appoint.

Bush also intends to go forward with current economic policies, rather than reach back for the failed policies of "The Great Society." He wisely recognizes the need for strong business incentives to keep the economy healthy.

Dukakis plans to throw money at problems at the expense of business, and history has proven that will not yield the desired results.

Bush has attacked Dukakis for his views on defense, just because Dukakis can see a better way to settle disagreements than destroying the world with nuclear weapons.

Dukakis also has a strong running mate in Texas Sen. Lloyd Bentsen, (who really is from Texas).

Bush had to pick someone who had Daddy's shirtsleeves to cling to during Vietnam. Someone whose father was a card carrying member of the John Birch Society.

It is time we put this country back on its feet again.

Activity fees, budget studied by senators To the editor: Being involved with student government is not easy. We work hard to help others in our voluntary capacity, often to find less accomplished than what we set out to do. We know that you are busy. You have goals and priorities. We do too. We attempt to represent your beliefs and wishes on pertinent issues. For the most part, we see things the same since we are all students.

Often, we present a number of proposals, only to find the smallest and least significant approved by the University, with those that would benefit the student body the most, kicked aside.

This is the case with Student Activity Fees — a budget of nearly $1 million funded by charging $3 for every credit hour of classes you enroll in. It's your money.

Letters For years, students have attempted to involve themselves in the allocation process of their money. We have been set on the back-burner, pushed aside with trivial excuses and delays, and asked to study the problem in greater detail. The findings only confirm our position.

We have worked very hard in attempting to secure funding for student organizations from this budget. Student organizations are

the basic fundamental aspect of student life, activity, and development. With an increase in enrollment and Student Activity Fee income, one would only assume that the effects would be felt by student organizations and student

government. However, our requests for student organization funding have been consistently denied, and our budget in effect received a drastic cut.

The intent of this letter is to inform the student body of an im-

portant issue. The CSU administration, the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges and the Chancellor are also being informed. This is a brief summary of the problem. In the future, we will share more information con-

cerning the CSU Student Activity Budget. We continue to press forward with this important issue that is being put off with trivial concessions.

New cafeteria furniture needed To the Editor: I feel that it's time that we students of this college fight for every right that we have coming.

With the increase of tuition coming again next year, we can say that this school has plenty of money to operate on.

Of course, the school administration doesn't worry about that, since the Redbud Room has the finest qualities of a restaurant.

That's fine, but let's see if campus students can get a meal ticket there. I don't think so.

It is unfortunate that students

And now, maybe the school can afford to take care of some much needed projects, like new tables and chairs in the various eateries on campus.

Now, I'm not a furniture major, but if you've spent time in the Oklahoma Room, you can understand the importance of more modern and updated equipment.

Signatures required too high

Have you ever tried setting your books on a table, buying a drink, setting it down, and hoping that you can drink it instead of wear it? It's one adventure to journey through this place, plus the fact that you have to balance everything on a teeter-totter table.

To the Editor: I am writing regarding the 250 student signatures required to petition the Student Association to even regard a student's request to review its actions, or to suggest a new one for the S.A. to undertake.

The college level political science courses I have taken stress the statistic that every voter who shares his views with his congressman actually represents the same views of 1,000 other voters from the congressman's home

have to balance tables and chairs just to eat or study. I wouldn't dream of seeing our college president wearing his coffee to his office.

Finally, I hope that the Student Senate reads this article, so maybe they can do something about this

state. Using this statistic, I would be interested to find out if a similar ratio exists at CSU to determine if gathering 250 student signatures is not excessive.

Allowing that the ratio will be smaller, even if it is as low as one person making a complaint/suggestion also representing the views of just one other person, this would make the actual number of students represented by 250 signatures, 500.

Therefore, if the S.A. requires

outbreak of "Cocaphobia" that thrives on fabrics. After all, who pays the bills around here anyway?

I thank you, my polyesters thank you, and my laundry bill thanks you.

Paul Brown

the concern of 250 students before addressing a petition, and the ratio is as low as one signature representing the views of two students, only 125 signatures would be required.

I have confidence that CSU has the available resources (professors and The Nigh Institute), and that our S.A. has the desire to determine the CSU ratio, make it known, and to employ it with the student's best interests in mind.

more and more, Osgood said, because of the increasing use of computers, robotics and lasers in the field, even at the high school level.

Osgood's involvement in industrial arts came about because of an accidental twist of fate.

"I had always been interested in things of that nature," he said.

"The strange thing was I wound up in industrial arts because I misread the course catalog (as a student at Central State). I thought I had to take a course in industrial arts, so I did, and I stuck with it because I liked it so much."

"Up until then, I was going to be a psychology major."

Spanish honor society to perform play

By Kamal Mazian

Student Writer Sigma Delta Pi, an international Spanish honor society, will present its 15th annual presentation of "Don Juan Tenorio" at 7 p.m. Thursday Nov. 3 in the Pegasus Theater of Liberal Arts building at Central State University.

Ann Phillips, chairperson of the foreign language department

at CSU, said the play, which portrays a strong religious and moral concept, is used to commemorate All Souls' and All Saints' Day, better known in the United States as Halloween.

In the final act of the play, the character Don Juan will be played

by Eddy Gert, a freshman, while Eloisa Taylor, a junior, will play Dona Ines, Don Juan's lover, and Jimmy Mangus, a senior, as El

Comendador, father of Dona Ines. Mistress of ceremony for the presentation is Vicki Cavender, president of Sigma Delta Pi. The evening's program will include a talk on career opportunities in Spanish, followed by Hispanic/American entertainment, said Phillips.

"Don Juan Tenorio" is a play written in verse by Jose Zorrila in Spain in 1842. The famous play is

still presented each year during the first few days of November in theaters in Spain, Mexico, Latin America and other Spanish/speaking countries.

This melodrama, said Phillips, is based on a 15th century legend about a swashbuckling, love/em/and/leave/them caballero, or women seducer, Don Juan. Set in the romantic city of Sevilla, Spain, Phillips said the

rubbing it in-I just wanted Eddie to know the score of last night's game,'

poetic lines in the play are some of "the most beautiful in the Spanish language."

Phillips said since this is a play about dead souls, whose spirits are walking on earth, Spanish/speaking people everywhere, especially Mexicans, love to see this play at this season of the year. In Mexico the Day of the Dead, All Souls' Day on Nov. 2 is a national holiday.

Admission to the program is free to anyone interested.

Richard Harvey, junior, has organized the Inter-Christian Organizations Council at Central State University after a year of anticipating its beginning, he said.

"Our purpose is to bring unity among Christian organizations at CSU through activities with one another," said Harvey.

"God's love is unconditional and we as Christians need to show that same unconditional love to each other on campus," said Harvey.

Harvey said he will be the president but the actions of the group will be the decisions of the council. Two representatives from each organization will make up the ICO council.

"We want to bring people together to break down the ethnocentricity, what one believes others are, and egocentricity, believing one is supreme, through the realization those people love God as much as you do," said Harvey.

"Doctrines will not be an issue in our organization. What we want to do is create a bond so we can be a witness to CSU," said Harvey.

"I believe other Christians will see what we've done and it will start a spark and maybe things like this will get started with churches and other organizations.

"I'm hoping ICO will grow and continue to exist at CSU," said Harvey.

The groups involved in ICO are: Baptist Student Union, Catholic Club, Chi Alpha, Ebony Gospel Choir, Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Greek Christian Fellowship, Malaysian Bible Study and Wesley Foundation.

Candidates debated

By Tim Earley Student Writer Dr. James Caster and Dr. John George, Central State University political science professors, gave their interpretations of the presidential candidates' stances on issues surrounding the upcoming Nov. 8 election, as well as some personal observations.

Since Bush favors less federal money spending on education, George asked how the state would fund it.

"Where is the money for education in Oklahoma going to come from? Most students would like more federal spending especially in Oklahoma, because they see Oklahoma doesn't have much.

Oklahoma has always been at the bottom of the list in education spending," George said.

"Dukakis will increase federal financing through grants and loans and then you would pay it back based on your ability to pay, not on the basis of how much you borrowed," Caster said.

George said in regards to energy, "Here's where we have a conflict with other states.

Oklahoma and Texas and other oil producing states would like to see a tax incentive. I'd be happy to pay an extra 70 cents or 80 cents a gallon at the gas station. It's us against the majority of the country."

"Neither one of them is going to come out with a big oil import fee or a big tax because it would be politically unpopular. The trouble with the oil and gas problem is that it's really only important to about five or six states. All the big population centers want on the east and west coast is cheap gasoline. Tax incentives will help Oklahoma," said Caster.

"I don't think there is any doubt we would be a lot better off if we could open up more foreign markets to buy our goods," Caster said about agriculture.

"If you subsidize the local farmer, you will keep him from going hungry, but you may have to continue to do that at federal expense. Over-production has been the problem," said Caster Concerning spending, Caster said of Bush, "He'll continue to put heat on the Democratic Congress to cut spending on their social programs. What the Bush crowd has always wanted is more discipline and reordering of expenditures."

"The Democrats want to raise taxes because it gives them more money to play with," said Caster.

Concerning defense, Caster said, "Bush believes in peace through strength. A strong defense is what brought the Russians to the bargaining table. Conventional weapons cost a lot more than nuclear weapons."

"I don't know anybody who isn't for a strong defense, but how are we going to do it? It's not just that Bush won't have the money for Star Wars or Dukakis for his conventional arms initiative.

There's not enough money for the weapons already in the Pentagon pipeline charged on the installPlease see page 7.

George Bush Bush favors less federal money and less federal control of education; return responsibility to the states; using special incentives to schools, he would "reward excellence" of teachers with merit pay and create a tax-free savings bond program for college tuition.

Bush would increase the depletion allowance for oil production; provide a 10 percent tax credit for oil and gas exploration; would decontrol natural gas and increase off-shore drilling; opposes oil import fee.

Bush wants to phase out all income and price support programs. He proposes to open up markets overseas and expand use of grain for alcohol-based fuels.

Bush says he will fight a tax increase every step of the way:. He has proposed a dozen new programs based on new tax breaks including reducing the capital gains tax.

Bush supports the MX and small ICBM's and the modernization of strategic weapons. He advocates SDI research and testing; favors START and INF treaties; supports the B-1 and Stealth bombers, the D-5 missile and new weapons to shoot down enemy satellites; favors more underground nuclear tests.

Supports a balanced budget amendment and the Gramm-Rudmann deficit-reduction law; supports a "flexible freeze" on government spending except social security and interest.

Bush supports a constitutional amendment opposing abortion, except in cases of rape, incest, or when the mother's life is in danger.

Bush favors the death penalty.

Dukakis advocates a cut-off of aid to governments that assist drug traffickers and financiers.

He opposes capital punishment for kingpins; favors aid to state and local government; would appoint an anti-drug czar to lead a national alliance against drugs.

Dukakis favors more federal money and more federal control of education; proposes $250 million program to promote teaching excellence and $25 million in grants for literacy programs.

Dukakis would provide tax assistance in depressed oil and gas areas, increase gas exploration and increase federally supported research on enhanced recovery. He opposes oil import fees and offshore drilling in environmentally sensitive areas.

Dukakis favors "supply management," a balance of set-asides of farm land and traditional price supports to keep farm prices at desirable levels.

Dukakis says stricter tax enforcement should be tried before a tax hike is considered. He would attempt to collect $110 billion in unpaid taxes. He has not ruled out a tax increase.

Dukakis seeks emphasis on conventional weapons. He opposes the MX and Midgetman missiles and the B-1 bomber. He would cut back SDI funding to only research; opposes a supplementary communications network and underground nuclear tests. Supports the D-5 submarine launched missile and the Stealth bomber.

Continued from page 6 ment plan as part of the $2 trillion Reagan buildup," said George.

The federal deficit is also a campaign issue.

"I don't think they've addressed the deficit. There are so many things already in the mill. How are they going to pay for defense spending? Reagan never submitted a balanced budget to Congress," said George.

"This thing didn't happen overnight, and it will take a gradual readjustment to fix it. The big deficit is caused by Congress' incompatible views. Each side is blaming the other, and they are both half-right. Everybody wants to cut spending, but nobody is willing to sacrifice their programs.

The only way politicians can keep everybody happy is to go into debt $150 billion a year," said Caster The Russians are also an election concern, said Caster.

"Bush will keep an eye on Russian expansionism," he said.

"The liberals feel we can't be the policeman of the world. They don't see anything wrong with socialism, so they may give in to the Soviets," said Caster.

Also, drugs is a debated issue.

"The war on drugs is totally ridiculous, spending more and more money where we're not even getting 10 percent of the marijuana and five percent of the cocaine," George said.

"Dukakis is against drugs, but he is not willing to go as far as Bush. He has a tendency to get caught up in individual liberties," said Caster.

Another issue where the candidates vary sharply is abortion.

"Most people would accept abortion in the case of rape or incest, or the danger of a mother losing her life," said Caster.

"Americans are overwhelmingly in favor of abortion. Only one in 12 are against abortion," said George.

The two contenders also differ on the death penalty.

"The main thing is to advocate the death penalty for a crime that

is so heinous that the criminal is a threat to society," said Caster.

"Dukakis is in an unpopular position. It's not a presidential issue, it's a state issue. It's not the severity of the punishment, it's the surety of punishment," said George.

The vice presidential candidates were also discussed. "(Indiana Sen. Dan) Quayle is a bright, young man. He has the qualifications to be president.

Many people didn't think Jack Kennedy was qualified. Qualified is in the eye of the beholder," said Caster.

"Quayle is the least competent person to be nominated for vice president in my lifetime. I can't think of anybody less qualified," said George. "(Texas Sen. Lloyd) Bentsen is very qualified. He's not as liberal as most Democrats. A lot of people think they (the Democrats) should switch the ticket," said Caster.

"Bush is the better qualified presidential candidate. Bentsen is the better qualified vice presidential candidate," said George.

Sports District meet Friday

Runners 2nd, 3rd in Lone Star meet

By Mark Finley

Sports Editor In their first ever Lone Star Conference meet held last Saturday in Abilene, Tex., the Central State men and women's cross country teams finshed second and third respectfully and now look

ready to compete for the District Nine title to be run this week on the campus of Oklahoma Christian College, according to 10th year head coach Paul Parent.

"This year, the conference meet doesn't really mean anything to us," said Parent, "because we're

CSU distance runner starting to hit peak

By Kent Blessing

Guest Writer It's approximately 900 miles from Edmond to Kenosha, Wis., and if Central State's Dwayne Antonio is going to make it for the NAIA Cross Country National Championships on Nov. 19 he's going to have to run pretty fast.

Actually, if Antonio qualifies for nationals he will probably travel by plane. But in order to qualify, he must place among the top five runners at the NAIA District Nine meet Friday at Oklahoma Christian College.

Antonio, a junior, has been coming on strong in the latter stages of the fall running season.

He's been the Bronchos' highest placer in the last four meets, including a fourth-place finish in last week's Lone Star Conference meet in Abilene, Tex. "I think the difference has been my dedication," said Antonio.

"I've worked harder in practice than I've ever worked before. The team spirit is also real good. We feel like we can make it to nationals this year and it's a legitimate goal."

For the Bronchos to qualify as a team they would have to win the district title Friday, and Antonio can be a sparkplug with a high individual finish.

"I really don't dwell on my times," Antonio said. "There are so many things involved. Weather is one of those things and the cooler it gets the faster my time and the rest of the team's times get."

"We've all been improving as the year has gone on and that is the key, peaking at the right time.

Hopefully we are on track to do that."

Antonio lettered three years in both track and cross country at Gallup (N.M.) High School. His prep team won the state championship in 1983-84.

The lanky distance runner was not highly recruited and decided to try junior college.

"I had some offers from smaller schools after I went to Haskell (Junior College in Lawrence, Kan.), but I got my friend Pete (fellow teammate

Peterson Chee) to come with me to Central State and it's worked out great," said Antonio. "I thought about going to Kansas or Oklahoma (Universities), but they were too big. I liked the atmosphere here. It was more my speed."

Antonio's days are busy ones.

He runs 12 to 14 miles a day and that, along with class, studying and traveling to meets, keeps him plenty busy.

"It was hard at first, between running, class and everything else," Antonio said. "I run about four miles at 7:30 in the morning and then run around eight miles at practice which begins at three in the afternoon. After studying and icing down my ankles every night, it's time to hit the hay."

No doubt Antonio is preparing well for his journey to Kenosho, Wis.

Burgess gains confidence in offense

By Kent Blessing

Guest Writer Following Central State's fifth consecutive loss this season, a lot of Broncho' football fans were losing their faith.

One Broncho, however, was still keeping his faith going. Zane Burgess, CSU's sophomore quarterback, wasn't about to give up.

The signal-caller's confidence has finally paid off the last two

weeks as—the Bronchos have reeled off two straight wins; 19-11 over Angelo State and 27-15 over West Texas State last Saturday at home.

"We knew going into the season we were young, but we didn't expect to be 0-5," said Burgess. "No one was giving up, though, and it's paying off now."

"We're awfully young. I think some people are starting to grow up, myself included. You look

down the roster and I think we're only losing three starters after this year. It's just now that we're starting to mature."

Burgess, in particular, seems to be the perfect example of maturity. Heading into the 1988 campaign, he was in a heated battle for the starting quarterback spot with redshirt freshman Ben Morrison, and the two split time the first five games.

Burgess was a respectable 26 of

57 passing for 417 yards in those first five games, but threw five interceptions with only one touchdown pass. He also had minus-66 yards rushing in 29 attempts. Inconsistency plagued the 6-3, 191-pound sophomore, and the verdict was still out at quarterback.

So the coaching staff decided to make some changes by putting some option plays into the CSU offense. And it's paid off.

Burgess, who ran the option at Plano (Texas) High School, has rushed 30 times for 70 yards and three touchdowns in the Bronchos' two wins, with seven sacks knocking down that yardage figure. He's also 14 of 33 passing for 183 yards and CSU has turned into a ball-control team.

"I feel very comfortable running the option," Burgess said. "I feel at home. I ran it from 8th grade through my senior year and I'm confident running it now."

"It's added a new dimension to our game. Our offense is starting to gain confidence. We know now we can drive the ball and we're starting to put the ball in the end zone."

"I like the role of a leader. I want to be the one they (the team) look to when we're in tight positions. That's my job."

Don't Leave School Without It

There is no doubt a new dimension has been added. Down 7-6 last Saturday, Burgess and his offense erupted for 21 fourth quarter points to subdue West Texas.

CSU totalled a season-high 354 yards as Burgess threw for 140 yards on nine of 18 passes, while rushing for an additional 24 yards and one touchdown.

"The attitude has completely turned around," said Burgess.

"We have a chance to be 4-3 in the conference and pick up some momentum going into next season."

If the Bronchos are going to win their final two games, Burgess will have to continue to play a big leadership role.

"I -like the role of a leader," Burgess said. "You have to be a leader at my position. I want to be the one they look to when we're in tight positions. That's my job."

And it's a job he's doing very well right now.

Martial artists place high at collegiate tournament Three students representing Central State University traveled to Kansas City, Mo. Oct. 29 to participate in the 13th National Collegiate Tae Kwon Do Championships at Penn Valley Community College.

Justin Poos, a freshman from Edmond, came away from the tournament finishing first in the fin weight sparring division and placing second in the style

competition.

J.T. McLaughlin, another Edmond freshman, took third in the flyweight sparring division.

Sophomore Jason Poos, Justin's brother, failed to win a meddle but did reach the quarterfinals.

Overall the three-member team finished third out of 55 colleges that make up the Tae Kwon Do National Organization.

Lone Star Football

"Some of the best tae kwon doists in the country were at this tournament," said Guy Poos, the coach of the team and owner of Poos Fitness Center in Edmond where the team trains.

"CSU has no official program for the sport of tae kwon do," said Poos, "so I paid the registration fee myself and used CSU's name because to compete in the tournament you have to be representing a college or university."

From left to right Justin Poos, Jason Poos and J.T. McLaughlin show off their third place trophy they won at the 13th National Collegiate Tae Kwon Do Championships in Kansas City last Saturday.

Ebony Gospel Choir rehearses

By Larry Smith

Student Writer The Central State University theatre department will present "Zalman or Madness of God" at 8 p.m., Nov. 10, 11 and 12 and at 3:30 p.m., Nov. 13 in the Pegasus Theatre in the Liberal Arts Auditorium.

"The play focuses around the rabbi of a synagogue in Russia who speaks out against government control of the Jewish religion," said Roberta Sloan, assistant professor of theatre.

"The first part of the title comes from the name Zalman, the beadle or caretaker of the synagogue who encourages the rabbi to fight the government.

"The second part of the title, "Madness of God", refers to the seclusion that the rabbi surrounds himself with following the episode of speaking out. The question is, was he mad or was he brave," said Sloan.

"This is not a light evening at the theater," said Sloan.

The play was written by Elie

Flu vaccine available

By Gia Walker

Student Writer Flu vaccines are now available to Central State University students, faculty and employees in the Student Health Center, said Ann Stewart, director of the center.

The Student Health Center is administering the vaccine during the hours of 8 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. to 8 p.m. until the serum runs out.

The best time to get the vaccine

is between now and January, said Stewart. It will take approximately two weeks before the vaccine takes effect and will be accompanied by minor flu symptoms.

CSU athletes and a handfull of students and faculty have been the only people to receive the vaccine so far. Enough serum has been ordered for 500 shots.

Shots cost $3.50, and a current validated CSU ID must be presented in order to receive the vaccine.

Wiesel, a Nobel laureate and a holocaust survivor.

Ebony Gospel Choir will rehearse 6:30 p.m. Wednesdays in the University Center Creek Room. For more information contact Dr. William Roberts, ext. 2438.

"An unusual item about this play is that Wiesel has to give personal permission for a production of it to be presented," said Sloan.

Chemistry Club to meet

I had to write to Wiesel and explain how the play would be performed and my interpretation of the different parts before I could continue my plans, said Sloan.

"A pleasant surprise in this play is the addition of Dr. Donald G. Bristow, associate professor of oral communication, in the part of the rabbi.

"It's a thrill for the cast and myself to have a man of his talent and experience in a major role," said Sloan.

On holding the play in the liberal arts auditorium rather than in Mitchell Hall, Sloan said, "I feel that the intimacy of the Pegasus Theatre is a plus considering the nature of this play."

"Facility Advisor David Ring of Emanuel Synogogue in Oklahoma City is acting as advisor for our production," said Sloan.

Admission is free to CSU students with a validated I.D. Tickets are $5.00 for adults and chidren and $2.00 for senior citizens. To reserve tickets, call the CSU box office at 341-2980 ext. 2513 between 1 and 5 p.m.

MSA to host seminar for foreign students

By Salina Nik Idris Student Writer The Malaysian Students Association has organized a seminar for foreign students who are interested in working in the United States and opening a business of their own.

The seminar will be at 7:30 p.m., Nov. 4 in room 201 of Howard Hall, said John Hung, president of MSA. The first speaker is Robert Lee Rainey, an attorney from the law firm of Elliott, Woodard, Rolston & Kelley of Oklahoma City.

Rainey has been General Attorney for the Small Business Administration and served as Special Assistant United States Attorney, said Hung.

Rainey received his law degree from the University of Oklahoma in 1986. He is also active in the

American Bar Association and the State and County Bar AssociationS. "The second speaker, Larry Davis of Oklahoma City, is an attorney who specializes in immigration law," said Hung.

Davis is active in the Young Lawyer's Division of the Oklahoma Bar Association, serving as Chairman of the Alien/Refugee Assistance Committee. He graduated from Loyola University, New Orleans, La. in 1979 with a B.S. in accounting. He earned his law degree in 1983 from Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas.

Davis is a certified public accountant in Oklahoma and also represents the Unauthorized Practice of Law Committee.

Everyone is invited to attend, said Hung.

Cronin predicts close presidential election

By Jerry Pierce Student Writer Speaking in Central State University's Liberal Arts Auditorium Monday night, Dr. Thomas E. Cronin, noted scholar on the presidency, predicted a close 1988 presidential election and said that Americans need to rely less on presidents for social change.

Cronin, the McHugh Distinguished Professor of American Institutions and Leadership at Colorado College, spoke at CSU as part of the Colloquium of Distinguished Scholars and Statesmen series sponsored jointly by Pres. Bill Lillard, the department of political science and the bureau of governmental services.

Cronin told the audience that the media has overshadowed the issues in this campaign by excessive coverage of polls and negative attacks.

"When Sen. (Lloyd) Bentsen, (Democratic vice presidential candidate) says 'you're no John Kennedy' to (Republican vice presidential candidate Dan) Quayle, that gets all the attention for two or three days, said Cronin. Whenever they start calling names, that gets on the evening news."

Cronin said this year's election will be closer than most people expect.

"I think it's going to be a closer election than the popular polls indicate. I don't predict a (Democratic presidential candidate Michael) Dukakis victory but I think it will be a closer race than expected."

The tone of the election has not been anymore negative that past elections. It has been in the range of acceptability, Cronan said.

He said if (Republican

presidential candidate) Bush wins the election, he will need "strong bi-partisan support to get the country moving again."

Describing the presidency as a "paradoxical institution," Cronin said Americans have unrealistic expectations of their presidents.

"We want a president to be gentle, decent, compassionate and caring on one hand as well as forceful and decisive if need be.

We expect them to be toughminded and even deceptive if that is needed to get the job done," said Cronin.

"Did the Eisenhowers and John Kennedy really lead in the civil rights battle or were they really recipients of protests and education? I would agree with the latter," said Cronin.

"Our system will work not by yearning for the Mt. Rushmore types to come and lead us to salvation. Our system works when people like you and me put pressure on those who are in office."

Cronin is the co-author of an American national government college textbook, Government By The People.

In addition, Cronin was the 1986 recipient of the American Political Science Association Charles E. Merriam Award for significant contributions to the art of government.

Correction In the Oct.13 edition of The Vista, in the article "Students tested outside," the reporter misquoted Jacquelynn Johnson as saying a seminar was forced outside because of lack of space.

Johnson said the group was forced to attend its seminar in the casket selection area of the Health Sciences Building.
