Drug abuse focus of forum By Shannon Blockcolski Editor More than 1,000 people are arrested in Oklahoma each month for drug related crimes, according
to Weldon Davis, officer of the Oklahoma State Narcotics Bureau. Davis was one of three speakers featured in "Cocaine Today," a
Bellmon, Nickles defeat democrats From Staff Reports Democrats gained control of the United States Senate for the first time since 1980 Tuesday, with a ten seat majority, 55-45. In the House of Representatives, Democrats kept their locked-up control, and even added a few seats. The Republicans made several breakthroughs in the Democrats 34-16 edge among the governors. In the Oklahoma gubernatorial race, Gov. Henry Bellmon, the state's first Republican governor in 1962 and former U.S. Senator, defeated businessman Democrat David Walters, 51 percent to 49 percent. Republican incumbent Don Nickles surpassed challenger District Democrat Congressman James R. Jones, 54 percent to 46 percent. In a close secondary race, Democrat Robert S. Kerr III defeated Republican state Sen. Tim Leonard for the lieutenant governor title. Democrat Robert Henry will fill the attorney general seat left open by Mike Turpen, who lost the Democrat gubernatorial nomination to David Walters. Henry defeated Republican Brian Griffin. In the race for treasurer, Ellis Edwards reigned victorious over Republican candidate Joe Manning for the seat held for two decades by Democrat Leo Winters, who lost in the primary. Other winners Tuesday include: Corporation commissioner — Democrat Robert Hopkins defeated Republican Phyllis Gault. Insurance commissioner — Democrat Gerald Grimes defeated Republican J.M. "Tiny" Blankenship. State auditor and inspector — Democrat incumbent Clifton Scott defeated Republican Dale E. Wallis. Superintendent of public instruction — Democrat incumbent John M. Folkes defeated Republican David Evans. District 96 representative —
Democrat Jim Zimmerman defeated Republican Carl Thompson and Independent Herbert Monks. District 81 representative — Republican Gaylan Stacy defeated Democrat Joe Park. District 83 representative — Republican Joe Heaton defeated Democrat John Williams. District 5 congressional seat — Republican Mickey Edwards defeated Democrat Donna Compton. District 2 congressional seat — Democrat Mike Synar defeated Republican Gary K. Rice. District 3 congressional seat — Democrat Wes Watkins defeated Republican Patrick K. Miller. District 4 congressional seat — Democrat Dave McCurdy defeated Republican Larry Humphreys. District 6 congressional seat — Democrat incumbent Glenn English ran unopposed. Voters also approved six state questions: SQ 593 — barring paroles of inmates sentenced to death or life without parole. SQ 589 — remove obsolete language prohibiting women from working in underground mines and raise the age limit from 16 to 18 for a person to be employed in underground mines. SQ 590 — repeal a $2 poll tax for voters under 60 years old, which is prohibited by the 24th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution. SQ 591 — allow winemakers in Oklahoma to sell their products to customers at their wineries instead of just to wholesalers. SQ 592 — remove a law limiting fares charged to train passengers; rail passenger service is no longer available in Oklahoma. SQ 597 — allow collection of state taxes on federal property obtained by foreclosure or bankruptcy, unless prohibited by federal law. At press time, some votes were still being counted in Oklahoma County due to problems with the computer counting machines.
forum focusing on cocaine and crack, 11:30 a.m. Wednesday in the Liberal Arts Auditorium. "We recognize that law enforcement alone is not the answer, but only part of the solution, to the drug abuse problem," Davis said. "Perhaps education will be the overall answer." Davis said only four percent of OSNB's arrests come from cocaine, but 75 percent involve marijuana. "We are experiencing more and more problems with ecstacy, especially in Nichols Hills, Edmond and some areas of Tulsa," Davis said. More than $100 billion a year are spent on illegal drugs in the United States, Davis said. "60 percent of the world's illegal drugs are marketed in the United States, and we have some 500,000 heroin addicts," Davis said. Larry Carnes, from the Life Improvement Center and the Cocaine Connection, spoke on the history and effects of cocaine. Cocaine originated in the West Indies, Carnes said, and was discovered when the Indians saw that after their llamas chewed the leaves off of the coca plant, the animals could carry more for a further distance. The Indians then began to chew
the leaves, which consisted of only one-half of one percent of pure alkaloid cocaine, Carnes said. "The typical routes of cocaine admission now are nasal, intravenous and only recently by smoking," Carnes said. "It is not injested through the stomach anymore because it takes so long for the "high," a lot of people don't think it's worth it." Crack received its name from the popping sound of the alkaloid after it has been dissolved in amonia and baking soda and is smoked, Carnes said. Cocaine and crack are central nervous system stimulants, Carnes said, and can cause one's heart rate and blood pressure to increase, as well as a heart attack. "In laboratory research, cocaine is the only drug a rat will self-administer until it dies. The physical effects and addiction are trememdous," Carnes said. Cocaine Connection offers outpatient drug treatment and a new program called "continguency contracting," according to Carnes. The patient writes a letter to their employer, admitting their cocaine addiction. The patient then gives the letter to the workers at Cocaine Connection, who mails it to the employee only if the patient begins using the drug again.
"A lot of people don't like this program, or think it's a good idea," Carnes said. Perry Carlton from Drug Recovery Inc. said, "It's getting to the point now that if someone is smoking pot or doing coke recreationally, you don't know what else they are doing." Drug Recovery Inc. offers a long term residential program for addicts and alcoholics to help each other recover, Carlton said. The adolescent center is located in Arcadia, and the adult center in Oklahoma City, he added. "One-third of the population in the adult program were once incarcerated and imprisoned for drugs," Carlton said. Drug Recovery Inc.'s philosophies are; abstinence is the only answer for all drugs, and that individuals need to learn how to live life on life's terms, Carlton said. "Most addicts don't know the damage drugs can do to them, they just know it feels good and that they want more," Carlton said. "Drug addiction is a disease, but it is a disease that hides itself well from the victim. "Our goal is for a person to become congruent. We help the person admit to themselves that they need help."

Opinion Page SA develops new outlook By Jeff Shilling
Student Association President There is a new direction beginning to develop in the Student Association. More effective leadership and involvement by all campus groups is being encouraged by the SA, and this fact is evident by the Leadership Development Workshop that was sponsored by the SA to promote these key ingredients. Many organizations on campus attended, and by the positive response that was precipitated, there have been plans initiated for another leadership seminar for early in the spring semester.
Guest Commentary SA-sponsored entertainment has been an overwhelming success. The video dances were well received by the student body, with every dance averaging from 200 to 400 participants. The next SA-sponsored dance will be held Nov. 20, and we invite all students to attend for a good time. The need for more space to enable campus groups to meet is being looked into and meetings are already underway to confront this problem. Hopefully this problem will be resolved in the future. I encourage all organizations to contacts us for any needs by coming to our office on the fourth floor of the University Center, or by calling extension 2249.

Letters: Recent speech appeals to 'Brady Bunch' mentality To the editor: The President of the United States stood in front of thousands of screaming supporters and mentioned OU football and Brian Bosworth. The people screamed louder. The President said that Oklahoma's ecomony is on the way up. And the people cheered. Do those people know that during the first part of 1986 Oklahoma's 529 commercial banks lost $64 million? Do
they know that there probably won't be 529 banks in Oklahoma next week? At least two Oklahoma banks declare bankruptcy and close their doors every week. The President also criticized "those overspending liberals." And the people cheered. Do they know that President Reagan has spent more federal money while in office than any of the last five presidents?
So, what can you expect from a society who spends countless hours in front of a television set watching reruns of Gilligan's Island? Anticipation spread through the hushed crowd gathered around the set as someone muttered, "Will they get off the Island today?" Or how about those Brady Bunch diehards. "Will they ever grow up?" they ponder. Mary Butler Will we?
University causes disappointment To the editor: I would like to make a few comments to your newspaper and CSU. I graduated from high school six years ago, and for many different reasons decided to start college this year for the first time. I have been surprised at the disorganization and apathy that this school runs (thrives) on. Just getting information to enroll and requirements to get in was a joke. Most of my work was done on the phone and I found out that if I called three different times with the same question, I would get three different answers! But, alas, I was not discouraged, annoyed, but not discouraged. I proceeded to enrollment and was shocked to find out that there is a university in the 1980's that does
not offer any type of guitar courses. No big deal, that's not the reason I went to school anyway. After getting into the classes, I was struck with obstacles of all types, i.e.; the Broadcasting Building being locked up tight when a specific time was reserved for the use. No big deal, it won't kill me. Having to pay for a test answer sheet and syllabus was annoying; I would rather be charged at the beginning of the year and have free access to these necessities. Even your "newspaper" caused me disappointments. I thought what I had was a timely and important ad to run, of course it wasn't. When I went to find out why, I was met with the same apathy of the rest of the school employees I was paying with my tuition.
Maybe I've just been out of school too long and forgot how immature people really are. But I'm here to take my education seriously and am finding it extremely difficult. This has been my first and last semester at CSU. I will be continuing my education at another school that takes its customers more seriously. Thanks for letting me get this off my chest, but with my luck it just won't make the paper. If it does, I'll be anxious to see all the psychology majors write in and tell me what my problem is. My main point is this, the immaturity, disorganization and apathy of this school is not worth half the fee for one semester. Name Withheld by Request
Space game promotes acts of violence? To the editor: The recent article in The Vista concerning the game Dungeons and Dragons and the connection to thirteen deaths brings to light another game that I feel encourages people to be desensitized to killing and violence. Photon, which opened on Reno last month, is a game where participants act out murder with light guns and
uniforms and "win" if they get the maximum score of hits on their friends and co-workers. I just hope such a game will not produce another Patrick Sherrill, who, in a fit of rage, killed many friends and co-workers here in Edmond. Two young boys, USA Today reported, were seen shouting at a
reporter who obstructed their vision at the post office that day. They said, "Get out of our way; we were here first." When will we treat life with respect and not play games that clearly desinsitize us to life, whether in the womb or in the world? God forgive us! Stan Engle

News: World, state and local
Voters top expectations
Despite the rain, cold and accidents, state voting observers speculate that Tuesday's election could top the 1982 record turnout for a gubernatorial election. Reports from some voting areas indicated that the Oklahoma County Election Board was called to send additional voting booths. National pollsters made predictions that the tournout would be low due to negative campaigning and mud slinging between candidates. Spot checks made by election board precinct inspectors estimated the voting attendance as steady to heavy.
Disaster count growing According to Norris Price, state civil defense director, the Oklahoma Legislature will be asked at its next meeting to appropriate $1.5 million to the state's share of disaster assistance for flood-damaged property. Unofficial estimates from county commissioners, civil defense, agriculture and the Red Cross indicate the damage from last month's flooding could tip $300 million. The federal government will contribute 75 percent to the repairs with the state and local governments contributing the other 25 percent.
Funds appropriated Tuesday, the Oklahoma City Council appropriated $40,000 of federal revenue sharing funds for a six-month rehabilitation work program, which coordinators presented to the council. Ben Brown, state senator amd member of the Metro Alliance for Safer Cities, said the coordinators are looking for a house and hope to have the program started by Jan. 1. Brown said the program will be free to participants, but will require each to work at jobs such as cutting grass or splitting firewood, which will help support the program. He added the program will provide counseling, room and board, work and social activities. The program will begin for males only, due to the need for morefacility to expand to accomidate females, Brown said.

Readers' forum Reasons to attend asked to Buttry To the editor: I find myself compelled to write
to John Buttry in reference to his recent article that appeared in The Vista. I have compiled my own list, Mr. Buttry, as to why a person should attend CSU. 1) to achieve a state of
enlightenment from reading your letters. 2) to spend many hours, as I often do, chortling over your scintillating wit. 3) to experience and hopefully to emulate your humility. 4) to admire your mode of dress.
Trashcans serve no real purpose To the editor:
The sacred, noble colors of Central State applied to a trash can is enough to make any blue blooded Broncho see red. But aside from using the colors of CSU in vain, these trash cans serve no obvious purpose. No telling how many times I have been on the Broadway Ex-
tension and felt the intense need to clean out my car. I have tried and tried to get a coke bottle in one, but traveling at 60 m.p.h., it has proved to be a difficult task. What we really need is small animal crosswalks. Now that is important!
5) to ask the obvious question, Why don't you go to school somewhere else? Timothy Morales
Congrats Vista! To the editor: The Vista editors, as well as the
staff, should be congratulated for their outstanding performance this semester. Not only has The Vista been presented professionally and informatively, it has also been presented in a well balanced manner. It is refreshing to see so many different names published. It is also very enlightening to see so many vital issues being brought into focus. Future issues are greatly anticipated in light of such excellent work.

Soap opera cancelled "Search for Tomorrow," listed as television's longest running soap opera, has been cancelled and will be replaced by a game show, "Word Play." The soap opera, which premiered in 1951, will air its last episode Dec. 26, a representative from NBC said.
Camera banned in India The Indian government has announced that cameras have been banned from the Taj Mahal, one of the world's largest monuments. The tourism ministry told officials the cameras are prohibited because they feared Sikh terrorists might conceal a bomb in a camera and damage the shrine. The 17th century Taj Mahal was built by Emperor Shah Jahan in memory of his favorite wife, Mumtaj Mahal.
Girls exposed to AIDS Due to several bar girls in the Phillipines being exposed to AIDS, the Health Ministry has asked for a U.S. guarantee that future troops sent to the Phillipines will be free of the disease. The Ministry also wants the United States to certify that all troops in the Phillipines have not been exposed.
Dyslexia form inherited Researchers announced Tuesday that a form of dyslexia has been linked to an inherited chromosome defect. Based on a study conducted with numerous families, scientists concluded that one in three inherited cases of the disorder is linked to a defect on chromosome 15. Herbert Lubs, one author of the study, said that in a few years, they will be able to predict at birth if a child will have dyslexia.

Families no longer fit traditional mold By Sue Starkey
no longer have to stay together for economic reasons. We don't have to live in a miserable situation. Marriage today is not as fragile as it looks on the surface." Another authority on marriage and divorce who has gained his knowledge through personal experience is Dr. Max Davis, retired professor and once chairman of the oral communications department. Davis said his optimism about marriage as the ideal lifestyle is undaunted by the fact that he has been married and divorced three times. According to Davis, who is conducting a four-week seminar at the Center for Single Adults in Oklahoma City on how to learn and benefit from divorce, first marriages have a survival rate of 50 percent with second and third marriage survival rates decreasing to 30 and 25 percent, respectively. "Some people can actually die of bad relationships," he said. His advice to both married and divorced persons is, "Whatever state you are in, learn to be content." McBride said he has been happily married for more than 30 years. "I'm not a proponent of divorce, but I'm not a proponent of two people living together in misery. There is one thing worse

The number of American families who do not fit into the "traditional family role" is 75 percent of the norm, according to a Wall Street Journal article. The story said nontraditional families include those with children headed by one parent or by unmarried women, families that are childless and households with one person living alone. Yet most Americans still tend to believe that the traditional family, consisting of a male breadwinner and a female homemaker/childraiser, is predominate. Sandra Scarr, a University of Virginia psychologist and author of "Mother Care/Other Care" said this is a widespread misconception. "The traditional family, which now makes up 11 percent of our families, is still a major myth," said Scarr. Despite these developments, Dr. Eugene McBride, founder and former chairman of the CSU sociology department for 16 years, said he doesn't see a dismal future for the American family. "Strong families today are just as strong as they have ever been," he said. "Marital dissolution is higher not because there is no commitment, but because people
In addition to completing a doctoral thesis on interfamilial interaction, McBride earned a master of religious education degree from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Ft. Worth, Texas and served as both full and part-time minister of music and education in Baptist churches for more than 10 years. But he has little difficulty reconciling divorce with Biblical teachings. "I know what the Bible teaches about divorce; I taught it many, many times. But I don't believe God wants us to be unhappy all our lives. I think we can be better persons — better Christians — if we are happy," he explained. McBride said he feels the drug situation is the single most crucial issue facing the family in contemporary society. But, he also said he doesn't believe that the current trend by conservative politicians N
to attempt to legislate morality through new drug laws is the answer. "I believe the family unit somewhere along the line is going to have to step in," he said. McBride said another issue with which parents are deeply concerned is their financial ability to provide children with some kind of education beyond high school. He said he thinks that young people are likewise more attentive to earning degrees than they have been in the past because of prevailing economic conditions. Whereas the subject of sex at one time largely predominated the thoughts of young adults, McBride said that "today sex has been put on the back burner in favor of issues of sheer economic survival." With more children in day care centers McBride said, "It has to be a weakness for the family that the parents have no control over the children. I think that the ideal family is still one with the husband and wife as role models for the kids," he concluded.

Professor once dean of boy's home By Audrey Burge
Student Writer Previous to teaching at CSU, Dr. Eugene McBride, professor of sociology, served as a dean for seven years at Buckner Children's Home in Dallas, Tx. The facility expands over 3,000 acres of land, all within the city limits of Dallas, and is one of the largest children's homes in the United States, McBride said.
When McBride worked at the home, he did not have a teaching certificate. Since it was a private school, one was not required. While teaching, McBride decided to attend Southern Methodist University and receive a teaching certificate, he said. "It's interesting," he said. "I did my student teaching in my own class." As the dean of 300 boys,
McBride was a "LOCO Prantis," or one of the children's parents. "We had a saying," McBride said. "First appeal to his manhood, second to his pride, third to his conscience and fourth to his hide." McBride pointed out that the homes of today operate on a "cottage plan," a mixture of all ages; for example, pre-school, middle school and high school, to give
Associate advocates change in present fraternity rivalry By Glenda Sides
Student Writer Incidents including a fraternity house being painted pink proves there is a problem between fraternities, Alan Madden, associate member of Tau Kappa Epsilon said. Rivalry is encouraged through
competition in intramural football, basketball, softball and soccer, Madden said, and he wonders why fraternities can't compete without disliking each other. "There must be a way to improve fraternity relations," Madden said. Madden, a freshman from

Purcell, said he is proud to be a TKE, but is concerned about finding a way to bring peace among the fraternity members. Madden's `big brother' has talked to the president of TKE, Ronnie Woods, about Madden's idea of having a pledge exchange. Woods has talked to other fraternity presidents and they have agreed to hold a social for the pledges of each fraternity. The date and time has not yet been set, Madden said. "The majority of frat members do not get along. In classrooms, we make faces at each other. I make happy faces. After this, the faces may get worse," Madden said. Madden said he hopes the pledge exchange will become a scheduled event each month. Reaction to this suggestion has been well received by the frat members and they want to promote the idea, Madden said. "We are all students with unity of campus pride. Hate between fraternities is a waste of much needed enthusiasm and time," Madden said.
Dorms open at $80 cost over holiday If you have 60 accredited semester hours, and can achieve a high score in a special aptitude test, you could be just 22 weeks from earning the gold bars of a second lieutenant in the Army Reserve. And ready to take on your first reserve leadership assignment. Qualify and you'll attend an 8-week basic training course, then go on to a 14-week officer candidate school (OCS) which will challenge you both mentally and physically. When you graduate you'll receive commission as an officer in the Army Reserve, and continue training in a branch officer basic course. Then you'll return home to serve in a nearby reserve unit—usually one weekend a month and two weeks annual training. It's a great opportunity to gain the skills and begin the practice of the kind of leadership and management prized so highly by civilian employers. You need not have completed your degree, just have 60 semester hours and a lot of ability and confidence to qualify. If you're interested in OCS, call:

Student Writer During the Thanksgiving break, Nov. 27-30, all resident halls will remain open to residents at no extra cost, but students living in Murdaugh or Thatcher halls need to make plans to stay elsewhere over the Christmas holidays, Dec. 22-Jan. 11. East and West halls will remain open to residents over Christmas, but students wishing to stay need to make reservations at the Housing Office. The cost of staying on campus for the interim is $80, Associate Dean of Students Deanna Land said. No visitors will be allowed in the dorms, she added. Land also said there will be no food services available on campus during these times, and the CSU library will be closed. Foreign students who wish to experience traditional holidays in America, or need a place to stay, can apply at the Administration Building, room 163, to contact a host family through the C.R.I.S.P. program (communities responding to international students program), Dr. Ronald Paddack, international student advisor, said.
more of a home atmosphere. McBride said when he was in the business, the homes were designed to take care of as many children as possible. The facility was a dormitory, and each age was housed separately. McBride said he felt they could be controlled better in this situation. Once the children finish high school, efforts are made to place
the children in college and find them a job. Each year the home has a reunion, McBride said. Some of the former students are engineers, architects, in sales and some even have their own business, he said. "Although I earned only $375 a month, it was a good time in my life. Everyone who worked there were committed, I enjoyed the experience," he added.

Bronchos playing for record, pride VISTA
By John Helsley
Sports Editor When the CSU football team plays its season finale against Lamar in Beaumont, Texas Saturday afternoon, more will be on the line than just another victory. A Broncho victory would improve their record to 4-4-1 and prevent the first losing season at CSU since 1976, the year before current head coach Gary Howard arrived on the scene. The Lamar game also brings to an end to the college careers of 17 Broncho seniors, and CSU's football affiliation with the NAIA.
SPORTS
Next season the Bronchos will be a member of the NCAA Div. II Lone Star Conference. "I don't think there's anything
great I can say to get our team ready for the last game of the season," Howard said. "I will say this though, our team is made up
of some competitors with a lot of character, or we wouldn't have played as well as we have all year. "We'll rally and do things like we've done all year, and that's play with a lot of intensity and a lot of heart. I'm satisfied we'll do that." Lamar could be just what the doctor ordered for a happy ending to a rather disappointing season for the Bronchos. The Cardinals, members of the Southland Conference, are 1-7 with their lone win coming in the sixth week of the season against Southwest Texas.
The Cardinals average only 71 yards per game rushing and 166.9 yards per game passing for a total of 237.9 yards of total offense. Defensively, Lamar is allowing 377.9 yards per game, which is not a good figure considering their offensive output. Running back Burton Murchison is the bright spot of the Cardinals attack as he leads the offense with 630 yards rushing and seven touchdowns. Lamar has been forced to go with freshman John Evans at quarterback since starter Shad Smith went down with an injury.
Evans set a school passing record in last week's 39-20 loss to Louisiana Tech by completing 18-of-33 passes for 289 yards and a TD. But, all was not good for the young signalcaller as he tossed four interceptions and was sacked 11 times for 86 yards in losses. This will be the first gridiron meeting between the two schools. The Cardinals are coached by Ray Alborn, who has been an assistant and head coach at Rice and an assistant for the Houston Gamblers of the USFL. Alborn was the Southwest Conference Coach of the Year in 1980.
Lady cagers shoot to improve over disappointing '85 season By Mary Butler
Student Writer The CSU lady hoopsters, boasting 10 talented veterans, a crop of new faces and a fresh competitive spirit, will tackle their first test Tuesday night, battling not only defending District IX champion OCC, but also a lingering memento of last years efforts — a 20-loss season. Head Coach John Keely, now in his seventh year at the helm of the Lady Bronchos, said he feels that the key to turning last year's record around rests in a little early success.
"We need to get off to a good start," Keely said. "A win next week would build up our confidence. We need a winning attitude to put last year aside." Keely is relying on a trio of returning seniors to lead his crew to some of that early success. Melanie Jones, a 5'7" forward out of Collinsville, leads the pack after topping the 1985 team in both scoring and rebounding. Cheri Happe, a 5'9" guard from Bishop Kelley, is a consistent scorer and rebounder who also led the squad in assists. Dee Dee Rutz rounds out the veteran

seniors. The 5'11" Okeene forward is a steady team player who consistently produces in all areas. A batch of junior returners are expected to produce inside power for the Bronchos. Carla Bell, a 5'8" former Clinton standout, averaged nine points a game and hauled in better than seven rebounds an outing a year ago. Kim Thomas, at 5'11", and Stacy Stout at 6'1", round out the post position. The powerful duo generates a steady flow of points and regularly bring in its share of rebounds for the Lady Bronchos. Juniors Kati Hoy and Lauren Beagle polish off the crew of returning upperclassmen. Hoy, a 5'8" forward out of Davis, and Beagle, a 5'4" guard from Pawnee, are both hustling team players who could push a few starters for positions this season. A pair of experienced sopohomore guards, Dia Snyder and Tina Smith, are back for their second seasons, completing coach Keely's company of veterans. Along with his crew of skilled letterwomen, Coach Keely is looking for a lot of help from a group of new faces appearing on this year's roster. Terry Wilson, a transfer from Northeastern, and Ladonna Jones, an El Reno Junior College product, highlight the list of newcomers. Wilson, Northeastern's top scorer last year, is a 6'1" senior who should have an immediate impact on the team. Jones, a 5'9" junior out of Midwest City, "shows alot of promise and should help out at guard," Keely said. The Lady Bronchos are scheduled to tip off their season Tuesday night against OCC at 5:30 in the Broncho Fieldhouse. Will last year's disappointing season be on their minds? "Good teams find a way to win games, last year we found a way to lose," said Keely. "This year should be different." Senior ace Melanie Jones agrees, "We're a better team this year, you can just feel it in practice. We'll be better this year, there's no doubt in my mind."

Flying 101: The Great Escape.
Roundballers need big-man to emerge By John Helsley
Sports Editor Since Buddy Armstrong arrived at CSU in 1982 to take over a struggling men's basketball program, the Broncho cage teams have improved each season. In his four seasons as the Broncho coach, Armstrong's squads have produced records of 4-27, 10-19, 20-14 and 20-9. The latter two seasons had the CSU roundballers advancing to the District IX Playoff Quarterfinals in 1985 and the Semi-finals in 1986. According to Armstrong, the Bronchos will need one of their "big men" to step to the front if they are to continue to improve and contend for the 1986-87 district championship. To begin the season, Armstrong will go with a three-guard, twoforward offense with no player taller than 6'5". "If we are to have the type of team we've had the past two years, our inside game must improve," Armstrong commented. "We are rebuilding inside, trying to replace an NAIA All-American (Chuck Kersgieter) and a fouryear starter (Phil Giachino). "Our lineup, at this point, would be one of the smallest in District IX, but that's the way it has to be if we are to put our five best players on the floor. "One of our big guys has got to come through. The inside is the key for us. If we don't improve, it could be a tough year." The Bronhcos will be a veteran team as four seniors and a sophomore will make up the starting five, including three starters from last year's team. Mark Martinovich is back to claim a forward spot after leading the team in scoring (15.6 points per game) a year ago. The 6'5" senior from Bartlesville also averaged 7.5 rebounds per game and shot 76.6 percent from the free throw line.
Lexington, Kent. senior Paul Collier will trigger the offense from the point guard position where he scored 14.1 points a game and handed out 106 assists last season. The other two guard spots will be filled by returning starter Andy Parker (6.6 ppg) and Keith Newton, both seniors. Sophomore Scott Streller will flank Martinovich at forward. A rule change which could affect the Bronchos with their three guard offense is the adoption of the three-point field goal. Shots made beyond the painted line 19'9" from the basket will now be worth three points. "We have one of the best outside shooting teams in the district," Armstrong said. "If we use good judgement, it (threepoint shot) could help us." "District IX is always a tough league," Armstrong said. "OCU, OCC, Southern Nazarene (formally Bethany Nazarene) and Southeastern will be good as usual and OBU, Phillips, Panhandle State and USAO will be improved. There will be a lot of balance in the league. "The early part of our schedule is tough again. We open with OCC and they will probably be ranked nationally. Our next game is against Wayland Baptist at the Cameron Classic and they are ranked seventh in the NAIA." The OCC game will be the Bronchos' home opener. The crosstown rival Eagles will visit Broncho Fieldhouse for a 7:30 p.m. contest Tuesday. Following is a look at the players who Armstrong thinks will contribute during the upcoming season. Paul Collier 6'4" senior guard — "Paul proved himself last year as an excellent outside shooter and ballhandler. An experienced player who has a lot of starting experience."
Keith Newton 6'0" senior guard — "Keith has been one of our biggest surprises. He's shooting the ball well, rebounding well and playing good defense. Really improved over last year." Andy Parker 6'2" senior guard — "One of our better defensive players. He has improved offensively each year. An outstanding team player who has a lot of leadership." Mark Martinovich 6'5" senior forward — "We would like to play Mark outside, but we are forced to play him inside to get our best five players on the court. Good shooter." Scott Streller 6'5" sophomore forward — "Would also be better outside, but we'll play him inside." Bowie Gibson 6'7" sophomore center — "Should be a starter, but he's not yet playing up to his potential. If we are going to be as good as we can be, he needs to come through." Scott Moody 6'6" sophomore center — "Good outside shooter, but with as many good players as we have outside, it's hard for him to play. He needs to be more aggresive inside rebounding and on defense." Doug Burris 6'10" junior center — "He will see some playing time off the bench and will improve with experience. Doug plays hard and is very coachable. He has potential to help us inside." Reggie Evans 5-, freshman guard — "Probably the quickest player on the team. Reggie led the Class 5A high schools in field goal percentage and playoff scoring, which shows his athletic ability at 5 ' 7 ". An outstanding playmaker." DeAngelo Irvin 6'0" freshman guard — "Beginning to come around. Outstanding prospect along with Evans. He plays well at both ends of the floor."
