Clinton wins student votes in election WASHINGTON (AP) — Democrat Bill Clinton defeated President George Bush in a mock election held among millions of American students and their parents, the sponsors said last week. In nationwide balloting, Clinton received 2,101,543, or 45 percent, to 1,413.916, or 30 percent for Bush and 1,116,125, or 24 percent, for Independent Ross Perot. Clinton carried 35 states wih 459 electoral votes in the National Student-Parent Mock election, sponsored by the Justice Department and a number of private companies, mainly in the communications industry. Bush carried Oklahoma and eight other states with 53 electoral votes and Perot five states with 26 electoral votes. In Oklahoma, Bush had 3,156, or 43 percent, to 2,113, or 29 percent, for Ross Perot and 2,019, or 28 percent for Clinton. Elementary and secondary school students in 70 schools in 38 Oklahoma towns voted in the mock election. More than 4.6 million students and a few of their parents voted in the mock election, which has been held since 1980. The students also registered these views on the issues: ✓ Using government education money to help give families a choice of schools was opposed by 42.6 percent, while 35 percent favored such a plan. ✓ On the economy, 37.1 percent favored raising the taxes of the wealthiest Americans to balance the budget, See World Wrap, page 5

Election '92 today Cast a vote
Record voter turnout expected from students
By Tami Watson
Staff Writer Oklahoma voters are expected to flock to the polls today following record-breaking voter registration numbers, said State Election Board Secretary Lance Ward. "Approximately 2,250,000 people have registered for this election," he said. "That's the highest number ever since 2,200,000 people registered before the 1988 election." Ward said this could likely result in a record-breaking voter turnout today. "We definitely have the potential for it," he said. "I'm guestimating that about 1,100,000 to 1,400,000 people will actually get out and vote." The previous record was set in 1984 when 1,290,000 voters showed up to vote, said Ward. Much of the registration success can be attributed to Ross
Perot's entrance into the presidential race, said Ward. "There's no question that the Ross Perot movement has stimulated people to get out and register," he said. "There has also been a big increase in the number of individuals registering independent." The large number of potential voters in the 18 to 21 age group could also be a factor, due to registration drives aimed at college-age students such as "Vote America" recently held at the University of Central Oklahoma campus and "Rock the Vote," sponsored by MTV. "Vote America was held to raise students awareness and encourage them to vote so their voice can be heard," said Barry Loftin, UCO multicultural student services director. "We were only out there for threeand-a-half hours and over 340 students registered to vote," he said.

Williams- Istook face off in fifth By Tami Watson
Staff Writer Election day has finally arrived, and among those vying for political positions are Democrat Laurie Williams and Republican Ernest Istook. The two are facing off to capture Oklahoma's 5th Congressional Seat. Williams faces an uphill battle in the Republican-saturated district. But following Rep. Mickey Edwards' defeat in September's primary election due to the check bouncing scandal, she has the best chance of any Democrat in years to win the seat. Williams' entrance into the races in this year's "Year of the
Woman," may also prove an advantage, although she doesn't believe in "women's issues." "Women bring a fresh perspective and a balance to government, but there are no 'women's issues, – she said. "There are only human issues." Both candidates are campaigning heavily in favor of "family values." Istook, a strong advocate for traditional family values said responsibility is important. "Family values is taking responsibility for one another," he said. "The most important work done is in the walls of your own home." Williams said family values is a very limiting, narrow issue. "The family is so many
different things to so many people," she said. Williams also believes the family unit can be improved by inducing self-esteem in children. "We need to instill self-esteem and integrity in children, homes, schools and parents," she said. "We don't have the family unit as we did in the '50s, we need to do everything we can to help improve the family unit." Education is also a big issue in the candidate's campaigns. Istook's parental choice of schools bill was praised as the best bill of 1991, and his "nopass, no-play" bill emphasized academics over sports. "I have a strong commitment to the public school system, and I disagree with federal
government take-over of education," he said. Williams believes education is the key to the future. "It's the key to jobs, hope and self-esteem," she said. Istook is also strongly in favor of the death penalty and his law letting Oklahoma courts keep dangerous persons in jail, without bail, while awaiting trial was labeled the most important state reform to reduce violent crime. "The law keeps drug dealers and violent offenders off our streets," Istook said. "I also proposed expanding the death penalty to high-level drug dealers."

Vote Democrat •Support higher education and Democratic candidate Clinton
Today's the day. The day when voters across the state and nation will cast their votes for someone who will commit to lead the United States for the next four years. And who will you vote for? For students in the higher education system the choice should be clear. Democrat Bill Clinton is the only candidate with a future in mind for U.S. college and university students. At this time, colleges and universities are suffering from a drought of federal relief funds. In fact, higher education has not been so thirsty since the 1930s. Clinton has proved that he cares about college students and student aid. In his home state of Arkansas, Clinton has made giving 100 percent of high school students an opportunity to attend college his top priority. And his new loan program for students to repay a college debt through public service — as teachers, health care workers or peer counselors — has received the endorsement of the National Education Association. In his state, Clinton established a program that allowed parents to buy short and long term college bonds and set up the Academic Challenge Scholarship program which gives $1,000 to every middle-income and low-income Arkansas student who takes the core curriculum, earns at least a C average and scores at least a 19 on the ACT. While in office for the past four years, President George Bush has focused his attention only once on higher education — when he signed the Reauthorization of the Higher Education Amendments of 1992. And that reauthorization only promises larger Pell Grants and bigger and more expensive loans for college. Bush has not considered the cost of paying back all that money. Imagine middle-class parents not having to go into debt just to send their children to college. Imagine every American student given a chance to attend an American college or university. Imagine Bill Clinton as the next president — and cast your vote for him and higher education today.

middle class to which I belong. The Democrats, led by Gov. Bill Clinton and Sen. Al Gore, are still trying to decide what they believe in and specifically what they will do if they get to the White House. Talk is cheap and not that trustworthy. Perot can lead this country and get us out of the $4 trillion debt that the GOP helped to build. His leadership is outstanding. His management and business skills
will put America back on its feet again. It is time for a change. It is time to speak, America. Speak for what you believe in. Speak from your heart.

Clinton's plans fail 'common sense test' ecently, Gov. Clinton has vehemently denied Republican charges that he intends to raise taxes on middle class, and says that he will pay for his $220 billion in new government programs by taxing only rich people and foreign corporations doing business in the United States. He defines the 'rich' as anyone in the top two percent of the income tax brackets, or anyone making more than $200 thousand annually. If he had ever done his taxes himself –as I have– and read the tax tables, he would know that the top two percent income bracket for an individual starts at $64,800 and for a couple at
R
$108,000, not at $200,000 as he claims. As for the other half of his plan to collect big new tax money, the bipartisan Joint Congressional Committee on Taxation issued a report which said taxing foreign corporations in the U.S. would raise only about $1 billion in taxes over four years, not the gold mine of $45 billion that Clinton claims. But even if you put aside all the bickering over which side is issuing the correct numbers, Clinton's economic proposals fail the 'common sense' test. You don' t have to be a Republican to be suspicious of a promise that huge new government spend-
ing programs can be paid for simply by raising taxes on a tiny group of rich people and foreigners. Ross Perot's billions wouldn't pay to run a small federal government agency for one day, and the combined wealth of all the millionaires in the United States wouldn't make a dent in the federal budget or the national debt. My advice to voters as they go into the voting booth this November is to remember that old saying our parents used to tell us, if something is too good to be true, it probably is. –

The electoral college: Should we abolish it or adhere to it? By Roy Howe Staff Writer Today Americans go to the polls to vote for their political party's slate of elector hopefuls -- they are not voting for a presidential candidate directly. "You would be surprised at the number of senior political science majors who do not know this," explained Sharon Carney, a University of Central Oklahoma political science instructor. "A lot of people don't even know they are voting for electors," she said. "They think they are voting for Bush, Clinton or Perot. That's the way it is popularized in the media. "In a technical sense, when we vote in November we are voting for our party's slate of electors. Whichever slate of elector hopefuls gets the most popular vote per state are the ones who go to the electoral college," Carney explained. Even though the media proclaims a victor Nov. 4, a winner is not technically declared until the winning elector's ballots are cast in December and opened in January.
"Each state's electors go to their respective state capitols during the middle of December and that is where they cast their electoral vote," Carney said. "Then, during the first week of January, officials send the ballots to Washington D.C. where they are opened before a joint session of Congress." The new Congress is sworn in on Jan. 3 and their first order of business will be the opening of the electoral ballots by the Senate president. "The vice president presides over this," Carney said. "So Dan Quayle will preside over the opening of the ballots and he will announce whether he has won or lost," she said. Electors are chosen by each political party, usually during the spring, and are entrusted by voters to favor their respective party if they should win the general election. Each elector places an individual vote for their candidate should their ticket win. The nation has 538 electors, which is based on each state's congressional delegation size, Carney said. "The Constitution requires for a winner that there be a simple majority which is one-half plus one. The 'magic number' is 270 electoral votes," she said. Oklahoma's congressional delegation equals eight because it has two U.S. Senators and four U.S. House of Representative
members. Thus, the number of electors Oklahoma is allowed per slate is also eight. "These people in the congressional delegation are not the electors," Carney explained. "If you're going to be an elector, it's an honor or a reward for many years of service and dedication," she said. A candidate could win by getting all of the electoral votes of 11 of the states with the largest number of electors, Carney said. Flow will Oklahoma's electoral votes contribute to the outcome of the general election? "The total is 538 electoral votes and Oklahoma has eight," Carney said. "Not very much." "The big prizes are California, Texas, Florida, New York, Pennsylvania and Illinois," she said. "They also include Michigan, Ohio, New Jersey, North Carolina and either Virginia or Georgia." These state's electoral votes equal 270, the "magic number" needed to win the presidency. Article 2 of the Constitution calls for the electoral college and, at the time, was probably based on a lack of timely communication and a distrust of the American people. Then, only about 5 percent of colonials were eligible to vote. "These people who wrote the Constitution were not average colonials," Carney explained. "They were wealthier, more
educated and more politically experienced. One author claimed that they were 'well bred, well fed, well wed and well read,"' she explained. "It seems they had a feeling that they couldn't trust the average voter in colonial America in the 1780s," Carney said. "In addition, communication was slow," Carney said. "Today we have instant communication." "When President Bush gives a speech we hear him live as he is doing it. Those colonials realized that they had to rely on the mail and the printed word to get information around the country. This may have been a factor of adding this middle man, the elector, in this whole process," she said. With today's instantaneous exchange of data, many people believe the electoral college has
become antiquated while others still believe it is vital to the election process. "Some people argue that since we have instant communication that we ought to eliminate the electoral college and have a direct election — that it would be more democratic," Carney said. Also, a six-week window exists from the time a slate of electors is chosen until they cast their vote for their party. "These electors can think through the process," Carney said, "and they can break party rank when they vote in December." "Quite frankly, a lot of people are angry about the electoral college because they say it is outdated, but once the election frenzy dies down we're not motivated enough to change it," Carney said.

Candidates differ on policy By Michele Soh
Staff Writer With free trade agreements, apartheid, relations with China, foreign aid and American troops overseas, this year's presidential candidates, George Bush, Bill Clinton and Ross Perot, all take a similar stand on United States foreign policies. But on some specific issues, there are slight differences, said Dr. Louis S. Furmanski, assistant professor of political science at the University of Central Oklahoma. In the first presidential debate, all three candidates replied with similar views to the question on American foreign policies. The clearest difference is each's stand on the North American Free Trade
Agreement, said Furmanski. The Bush Administration "supports as is;" Clinton, in theory, supports the proposed agreement but would like to see some modifications. On the other hand, Furmanski pointed out that Perot has said bluntly, he is not in support of it. Both Bush and Clinton agree on U.S. relations with China. Although Clinton has indicated he would like to put pressure on the government to improve their human rights practices, said Furmanski. To date, Perot has not made a statement about China. "All three presidential candidates are committed to the end of apartheid, and the beginning of a democratic state there," said Furmanski. He said on the issue of foreign aid, if Bush or Clinton
were to be elected in November, there will be no difference. If Perot wins, he probably would want a bit less support. Foreign aid to developing countries is not a popular topic of debate right now, added Furmanski. Bill Clinton is more inclined to having less American troops overseas. According to Furmanski, who teaches classes on foreign policies at UCO, the U.S. has yet to develop a "solid understanding" of its foreign policy in this post Cold War period. However, there is a general belief that America should be careful and cautious not to get involved in the affairs of other countries unless necessary and if American interests are directly in jeopardy, said Furmanski.

Hey, Canada what did we ever do to you? By Justin Harper Sports Editor Oh Canada, how misled you are. Citizens of Toronto, you are experiencing delusions of grandeur. Yes, you have the nicest stadium in the Major Leagues. And you have the highest average attendance, year in and year out. You even went so far as to be the first non-American World Series champ in history. All impressive feats, to be sure. However, it was not, as you would lead everyone to believe, a victory in the "Great Canadian-American Border War." If it was anything, it was a win in the "Give us some recognition, eh," department. It seems as if the Blue Jays World Championship brought you more joy in the sense that you "one-upped" the good ol' U.S.A. instead of the fact that you are kings of the baseball world. I applaud the Blue Jays accomplishments, but I hardly see it as a slap in the face to America. Where you came up with the "us against the world," attitude is beyond me. It's not as if baseball has ignored you all these years. The 1991 Major League All-Star game was played in your beloved Skydome. Americans buy Toronto and Montreal fan paraphernalia. There are many Blue Jay and Expo fans in our wake. Besides; I can't recall a single instance when America snubbed it's collective nose at you when an American team won the series. It's almost ludicrous for you to believe you have put a burr in our jockey shorts anyway. Let's look at the facts...(1)-Baseball is an American sport, born and bred in the States. Just as hockey is your baby, baseball is ours. (2)-The Blue Jays and Expos are members of Major League Baseball, which began in, is governed in and 93.3 percent of the teams play in, the U.S. (3)-Not one single player on your World Series roster was a Canadian. So basically, it was American talent that brought you your championship. Okay, I admit we looked like major league dorks when we displayed your flag upside down during the pre-game ceremonies of game two in Atlanta. The blunder definitely makes the World Series All-Faux pas list. Admittedly, we made a mistake. With all your ranting and raving, though, one would have thought we left the leaf off. You must admit, it sent your U.S. bashing T-shirt sales through the retractable roof. The fact is, Blue Jay baseball is a part of American baseball. And we congratulate the Toronto organization as a whole (yes, Canada this means you too.) So lighten up neighbors o' the north, and just enjoy the fact that you are No.1, eh.

John Paul Jones, bassist for the legendary Led Zeppelin, contributed the string arrangements to four of the songs on "Automatic For The People." According to guitarist Peter Buck, the band wanted string arrangements that didn't descend into

The Student Government Association of the University of Central Oklahoma passed a resolution Oct. 26 to publish a monthly newsletter to inform the students of UCO the purpose and actions of the SGA. The newsletter will explain the resolutions and bills concerning the campus and whether the resolutions were approved by the SGA. "This is basically an informational newletter," said Elaine Paparonis, SGA speaker. The SGA newsletter will be published on the third Thursday of each month.
The history and geography departments have cash scholarships available beginning next semester titled "History Emeritus" for history/ geography majors, said Dr. James Baker, chairman of history and geography.

IRONICALLY, THE TIME TO START SAVING FOR RETIREMENT IS WHEN IT LOOKS LIKE YOU CAN LEAST AFFORD IT.
C
wa
an't afford to save for retirement? The truth is, you can't afford not to. Not when you realize that your retirement can last 20 to 3o years or more. You'll want to live at least as comfortably then as you do now. And that takes planning. By starting to save now, you can take advantage of tax-deferral and give your money time to compound and grow. Consider this: set aside just $ioo each month beginning at age 30 and you can accumulate over $192,539* by the time you reach age 65. But wait ten years and you'll have to budget $227 each month to reach the same goal.
Even if you're not counting the years to retirement, you can count on TIAA-CREF to help you build the future you deserve— with flexible retirement and tax-deferred annuity plans, a diverse portfolio of investment choices, and a record of personal service that spans 75 years. Over a million people in education and research put TIAA-CREF at the top of their list for retirement planning. Why not join them? Call today and learn how simple it is to build a secure tomorrow when you have time and TIAA-CREF working on your side.
