Iowa Student Kills 5 IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — When Gang Lu's doctoral dissertation wasn't chosen by a University of Iowa committee for an academic honor, he filed a complaint and he bought a .38-caliber revolver. He took the gun to a weekly meeting of the physics and astronomy department Friday, where he killed five people and himself. Lu, 28, shot to death three professors and the student whose dissertation last spring was nominated for the award. He then went to another building, where he fatally shot an administrator and wounded her secretary.

Walter's son charged with drug possession NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — Prosecutors filed misdemeanor charges Tuesday against Shaun David Walters, the 19-year-old son of Gov. David Walters, and his girlfriend after police alleged they found drug paraphernalia at the younger Walters' residence. Norman police Sgt. Bill Johnson said police answered an alarm call at the home and found the front door open, or unsecured. Confiscated material included a marijuana seed, grow light, Styrofoam cups, potting soil and a homemade device apparently used for smoking marijuana.

Live from New York, it's Mark O'Donnell, a multi-talented writer whose credits include "Saturday Night Live," "Ha!," "Comedy Zone," and "MTV's Halfhour Comedy Hour." O'Donnell will be at the University of Central Oklahoma on Saturday morning to speak to the Creative Studies Writer's Institute about comedy writing. O'Donnell graduated from Harvard University where he wrote for the Lampoon. He mailed samples of his writing to SNL from college but never heard anything back. A year after graduation he moved to New York where he met the headwriter of SNL, who thought he was funny and hired him, O'Donnell said. "It seems you have to be there. If people knoW' you in flesh and blood, it helps reinforce their notion of you and your work as existing," O'Donnell said. He wrote for SNL in 1981 at the same time Eddie Murphy and Joe Piscopo were part of the cast. He wrote many of the Mr. Robinson's Neighborhood segments, a take-off of the popular childrens show, "Mr. Roger's Neighborhood," that featured Murphy. "I left 'Saturday Night Live' because as a playwright and story writer, I'm protective of my personal vision. Everything was done at the last minute in a dead heat, and sometimes I liked it and sometimes I didn't," O'Donnell said. O'Donnell said he considered working at SNL more of a sideline and he is prouder of the fact that he has published a book of short stories, "Elementary Education," and four plays.

"...Yeah. he done me wrong, but I got over it ....I had it bad. but I'm better now....

"It's a very satisfying feeling, seeing your work on stage, on screen, or on the page, the official typeset. When your work finds its way to the audience and there is communion between you and the audience's mind, that's what makes it worthwhile," O'Donnell said. He grew up in Cleveland and won a contest in the third grade with a song he wrote that was played on local radio. At 17 he won the Dramatics' National Student Playwrights' Competition, O'Donnell said. "I took a bus to Ball State in Muncie, Ind.

Astronaut's talk launches Flu shots National Chemistry Week available By Marcia Benedict

Hill chosen for '91 magazine honor NEW YORK (AP) — Anita Hill has picked up another honor in the wake of her testimony during Clarence Thomas' Supreme Court nomination hearings, this time from Glamour Magazine. The magazine, in picking "1991's bright spots," said it chose women who were "beacons of integrity, humor, guts and grace in an often graceless and cold-blooded world." Hill was named "for sacrificing her privacy to speak out for women." Hill will be featured in Glamour's December issue.

O'Donnell said he and his twin brother, who is head writer for "Late Night with David Letterman," have wanted to be writers as long as he can remember. "When we were five or six years old we would create picture books and share them with each other," O'Donnell said. O'Donnell will speak from 9:30 a.m. to noon Saturday in Old North, room 206.

Staff Writer An astronaut who has spent more than 500 hours in space will speak to students at the University of Central Oklahoma, at 7:30 tonight in the Liberal Arts Building at the Pegasus Theater. Dr. Shannon Lucid, a native of Bethany, will deliver a lecture entitled, "Chemistry and Space," to students as a part of National Chemistry Week, said Dr. Terrill Smith, UCO chemistry professor and coordinator of chemistry week. "Everything related to the physical world is related to outer space," he said. Lucid has been involved as a crew member on three space shuttle missions, and has worked at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration testing shuttles and serving as chief of mission support and chief of astronaut appearances. In addition to Lucid's lecture, students have an opportunity to attend a career day panel discussion and open house, Friday, Smith said.

Shannon Lucid

The department will present a panel discussion from 1 to 2:30 p.m., Friday, in Howell Hall, Room 320. From 3 to 5 p.m. students can tour the chemistry department. "When students are in chemistry classes it can be a little hard to make connections between their studies and the everyday world. So, we want to emphasize to the students in particular, that what they are studying is an important part of their lives," Smith said. V

Flu shots are available at the Health Center, and supply is limited, said Susan LaForge, RN and director of the center. "We do not have much of the vaccine left, so its first come first serve," said LaForge. There are three different types of flu virus; A/Beijing, A/Taiwan, and B/Panama, T 2Forge said. "And a person can get protection from one shot, and it will cover the three types of the flu virus," said LaForge. Persons with adverse reactions to such testing should not be vaccinated, she said. And the flu shot should not be administered to individuals with a history of hypersensitive (allergy) to the chicken egg. "A person may experience swelling and soreness in the arm, after receiving a shot," said LaForge. "But it should not make a person sick, because there is nothing in the shot."

STOP is ready to go again he STOP (Stop Taxing Our People) group didn't retreat with the defeat of the initiative petition to repeal House Bill 1017. They are back with State Question 640, a proposal which would require that all future tax increases be submitted to a vote of the people unless approved by a 75 percent majority in each legislative branch. The Supreme Court has cleared the way for their latest effort to be placed on the ballot and, if approved, could spell DISASTER. STOP has taken the simplistic approach that selfgovernment is the true democratic way. But Oklahoma is neither a direct or pure democracy—nor is any other state. It is a republic with a representative form of democratic government. Accordingly, Oklahomans go to the polls to elect officials to represent them and make decisions and enact legislation which governs them. These officials are elected to office because of voter confidence in their ability and approval of their political platform. The legislators assume responsibility for spending countless hours studying the problems and solutions available to state government. The wheels turn slowly in the political machinery and laws often see-saw between houses for weeks until all details are correct. In the 1980s Oklahoma legislators were faced with the difficult task of raising taxes while simultaneously cutting services. As a result of tough decisions made by them, Oklahoma is one of the few states surviving the recession and financial crisis in state governments. Few people have the time, patience, inclination or access to information to learn all aspects of governmental problems sufficiently to make an intelligent, informed decision. It is unrealistic to expect Joe Citizen to understand the complexity of state government based on sketchy information provided by catchy billboard sloganeering, take-it-orleave-it advertising messages, and the evening news. Can we expect him to vote to tax himself to build new prisons or mental hospitals? Unless there is something in it for • him, probably not; yet those are examples of two pressing problems which will need attention in the near future. If the STOP members think Oklahomans don't need more taxes, then they should spend their energy supporting candidates who will Stop Taxing Our People. State Question 640 will handcuff the ones elected and will Simply Terminate Oklahoma's Progress. V

Vista needs to treat races fairly uring the month of October every week it seemed as though I was reading something about one of our black male students that was in trouble with the law. One of the articles was on the front page with a write up and a picture beside it. In a following week two more of our black male students were in The Vista because they had also gotten in trouble with the law. Even though this wasn't on the front page it had an article and pictures of the individuals. Now when one of our white male sutdents gets charge(sic) with assult(sic) it made back page news with no pic-

ture of the individual. And please let me remind you back page not front or second page news. Now during the past couple of weeks there have been some positive things in the The Vista about our black students and it upsets me to say that it did not get the same treatment. First of all when you wrote about the ceremony to be held for the Ebony King and Queen it was on the back page with a small write-up and no pictures of the candidates. Now in the last Vista I read, Oct. 29, 1991 there was a picture of the crowned candidates and no article beside it. Instead you put some article be-

side it that talked about renovation instead of the ceremony and the crowned King and Queen. Oh, I must give you credit it did make the front page (the picture that is). After all how many articles did we have about our Homecoming Queen candidates and our crowned Queen. Is the Ebony King and Queen not as important? That's why Oct. 29 issue was my last Vista I read until there is fair treatment for every race of students. After all The Vista is suppose(sic) to be "The Student Voice." —Stephanie Johnson

Resident wants peace and quiet

n response to "RAs take jobs to seriously" in the N ovember 5, 1991 edition of the Vista. I am not amazed by the attitude of the authors of the letter which you printed, and in fact, I agree with them on some points, especially the Right to PRIVACY! I live at East Hall, and I want to see our RAs do more in the way of enforcement. Why? Because of my right to PRIVACY. The young men here feel that they are adults, too. They are upset when they get fined for being noisy. TOUGH! I am here to study, and I have a room to sleep and live in. I do not need to be

awakened at 2 a.m. by young students yelling down the halls to their friends, nor do I need to be kept awake by the yells and laughter of my neighbors playing video games at 1:30 in the moming. I often work nights, and have scheduled my classes so I could sleep late on some mornings, except for the music from my next door neighbor, and the heavy base from the two students who live above me. The first sign of being an adult is caring about other people's feelings. Many times I have seen residents, warned about excessive noise, return to their room, (after cursing the RA or Head Resident)

and turn their music back up to obnoxious levels again. I am in favor of fines. Sometimes I wonder if $10 is enough! At East Hall, the hall council recently helped RAs and staff by voting into record a clarification. At East Hall, if your noise can be clearly heard 10 feet from the door to your room, you can be fined $10. Now if we can just stop people from yelling, singing and screaming in the halls after hours, maybe we can sleep and study, the main reason we have rented a room at the University. —

Election Outlook 1992 ed Kennedy is the best candidate for the Democratic nomination in 1992. Think about it ... • With a facelift, a diet, and a six-week, 12-step recovery program, he could emerge the prodigal son.

• A new American hero— he's a bootlegger's boy who rose above his environment. Americans identify with underdogs. • With a good public relations agent, he could become the newer, stronger, gentler but

tougher Theodore (trust buster, square dealer) Kennedy. • And he could hire a wordsmith like Peggy Noonan to write him his own "thousand points of light" speech. • Besides, he's the only candidate the party has.

Students visit Ford's Faulkner By Linda Borrell UCO Student Dr. Bob Ford, English professor at University of Central Oklahoma, took 15 members of his Faulkner class to Oxford, Mississippi over fall break to tour William Faulkner's home and his mythical Yoknapatapha County. The UCO vans full of students traveled the scenic highway through Arkansas, and Tennessee heading for University of Mississippi, the final destination. The fall season was in full bloom the farther the vans traveled into the south. From conversations at the court house with Motee Daniels, Faulkner's renowned bootlegger of the 30s, to touring of the many historical houses in Oxford the trip was packed with history. Eighty-seven-year-old Opal Worthy opened her famous antebellum home in Oxford to Dr. Ford, her former student, and to UCO students. Her home is registered with the historical society and is a picture of the past, in furnishings and architecture. In her attic was a collection of ballroom dresses and accessories from the 20s and 30s. One of Faulkner's books, The Bear, was made into a movie and it was filmed in Worthy's house. Dr. Howard Barr, professor at Ole Miss and curator at Rowan Oak, Faulkner's home, told students about the ghosts at Rowan Oak, (the house did have an eerie feeling).

Dr. Beckett Holworth, registrar of the university, gave UCO students town and campus sights and insights. A tour through Phil Stone's former office (the oldest law firm in the state of Missippi) turned up more memories of Faulkner's many visits visits with Stone. Reverend Duncan Gray, III, Episcopal priest of St. Peter's, told stories about when his father served as priest to William Faulkner. Next, we lunched at Abbeville—at Jimmy and Ruth's (Resturant & Mercantile), a shotgun shack in bad need of paint, and dusting. Ruth, a grandmother type, rushed around filling plates and saying "wished you'da called first." Although we never saw Flem Snopes,(one of Faulkner's characters) probably one of those lethargic hounds on Ruth's porch was his. For the evening meal, we were offered hog jowl, red-eye gravy and grits at Smitty's, another local resturant, with Miss Lucille pouring the coffee. She talked to Bob

(Dr. Ford) in her thick southern drawl as though she had known him all her life. The climax of the trip was meeting Faulkner's white-haired nephew, (a published author) Jimmy Faulkner, at the country church in College Hill, complete with grave yard, where William Faulkner ("Brother Will" to this nephew) was married. The day was magic. When the 60ish Faulkner arrived, there were golden leaves falling as 15 students stood under a giant Birch tree in the church yard. We didn't know he was coming and were shocked to see someone who looked so much like the Faulkner it was like we were hallucinating. He told boyhood stories about growing up around Faulkner, and about taking him to the hospital the day before he died. When a student asked about the number of groups he spoke to every year, Faulkner shook his head negating too many, "but .I always do it for Bob," he said. Bob didn't hear Faulkner's comment as he walked around the civil war church to join us beneath the trees. V

Being a woman in a traditionally male-dominated profession has its disadvantages, Dunn said. "Sometimes it's difficult for a woman to be a police officer because you have to gain acceptance from your male colleagues," Dunn said. "Citizens have a hard time with it too. Sometimes they tend to argue with you or ignore you altogether." Bob Roberts, campus police chief said Dunn has implemented a number of programs and procedures. She has been in charge of the budget and payroll as well as serving as information officer. "It's going to be difficult to replace her," Roberts said. "I don't think we know yet how much we're going to miss her." V

University of Central Oklahoma Police Sgt. Doris Dunn is turning in her badge after 12 years on the force, but she won't be running far from the law. Dunn's last day was Halloween, and her plans now are to become a paralegal after she gets her associate's degree in May 1992 from Rose State College. "That's only because UCO doesn't offer a paralegal program," Dunn said. "In the meantime, I'm going to brush up on my secretarial skills by working for a temporary service." Since her arrival on campus in August of 1979, Dunn said she's made a lot of good friends. She even met her husband, former UCO police chief Jim Dunn, while working in the department. "We had developed a close friendship, and after Jim retired from the force in 1984 we started dating, and one thing just led to another," Dunn said. There were some comical times as well as some tense moments during her tenure at UCO. "I can remember students streaking in the dorms, and the protests during the fall of the shah of Iran," Dunn said. For those too young to remember, streaking was a 1970s fad in which participants ran naked through public places. Dunn has watched the campus

Seminar discusses 'Addictive Process' By Penny Owen

Student Writer

Addiction, like a black widow spider, lures its victims into a de-

ceptive web of thrills and false security that, if left untreated, envelops its target with poison that seeps into the now-mangled addict and pierces his fate with a final, deadly blow. In other words, addiction is fatal. Fatal enough, in fact, to be the third leading cause of death in the United States, said Dr. John Bourdette, University of Central Oklahoma assistant sociology professor, during a seminar on "The Addictive Process" held last week as part of Alcohol Awareness Week. Bourdette describes addiction as a love affair which initially meets the emotional needs of its victim. Succumbing to the euphoria, the victim soon turns away from other sources of fulfillment, such as spiritual avenues and community activities, and unwittingly builds a need for the drug. The victim assures himself that he is in control of the substance, be it alcohol or other drugs, food or gambling. Indeed, at the early stages, the mood changes are predictable, even controllable, Bourdette said. The potential addict knows how much of the drug it takes to achieve the desired effect. "I knew that when I had three scotches, I had peace of mind and contentment — at least initially," said Bourdette, himself a recovering alcoholic. "I had my emotional needs met." As progression sets in, the addict develops rituals around the drug, such as always showing up at a certain time for happy hour or spending time carving cocaine lines on a mirror. With aritual, the addict is relieved from making a decision about using the drug;

the habit is set up, so there is no reason to question it, Bourdette said. Soon, it takes more of the drug to achieve the same level of euphoria. "At this point, everything is being focused around the addiction," said Bourdette. "The addictive personality is completely in control." Finally, there is a complete breakdown in the addict's life, where nothing seems to work anymore. The drug is an obsession needed to take away the pain — pain which is now largely brought on by the addiction itself. Guilt and remorse set in and feelings of hopelessness become allconsuming. Bourdette suspects that most people who commit suicide have reached this stage of their addiction. This is the point where the addict will either ask for help or die. For those in the final stage, Bourdette insists that professional help is necessary for recovery. Addicts under the influence are incapable of successfully pulling themselves away from their vice. What makes a person abuse alcohol or other drugs to begin with? Before the addictive personality develops, there is some kind of pain the person is going through which makes him vulnerable to wanting a mood change, Bourdette said. When the drug removes the pain and instills the contentment they crave, that person is likely to continue using the drug, Bourdette said. As a result, an addictive personality develops to justify the excessive drug use. Thus, the addictive cycle begins. "Whatever the addiction, the process is the same. There is a mood produced and we get hooked into it," said Bourdette. "And all addictions are progressive. They get worse, not better." V

The Four Horsemen ride off with acclaim of debut album By Kathy Karr

Staff Writer

"Nobody Said It Was Easy" is the debut effort from kickin' band The Four Horsemen, and if you're in the mood for some whiskeyladen, guitar grindin' rock and roll, this album's for your. The Four Horsemen is a fiveman set-up. Dave Lizmi undertakes lead guitar duties, Ben Pape handles bass, Dimwit, formerly of punkers D.O.A. pounds the skins, Haggis, who had done bass duty with The Cult and Guns 'n' Roses, partakes of rhythm guitar and scream king front-man Frank Starr offers up closed throat vocals piercing enough to make Sebastian Bach ache with vocal envy. Produced by rap master Rick Rubin for Def American, The Four Horsemen's "let's rock, and screw anyone who gets in our way" attitude is old hat(remember the Rolling Stones?). But in today's world of icky

dance-pop, teased and made-up glam metal and pretentious alternative music, the Horsemen's down and dirty have-fun attitude is the best to come along since their label mates the Black

Crowes.

Review The- album opens with the title

track, Haggis hitting the same riff over and over in typical rock fashion. It sounds great! Starr sounds as if he's in a great deal of pain, which is how you're supposed to sound if you're singing bluesbased rock. Starr's vocal acrobatics reach some odd extremes, and you sometimes wonder if he went home from the studio with his throat raw and bleeding. Talk about a singer sacrificing for his art!. "Rockin' is Ma Business" is the next tune, another hot rocker with some bitter ad-lib commentary from Starr on the music business. Ignore the whining and what's left is one cool rock and roll anthem. The next tune, "Broken

Wings," was written by Haggis for friend Axl Rose. It maintains the theme of the album in defining The Four Horsemen as a rock and roll band, but the lyrics seem oddly wistful as Starr holds back

and sings almost at a whisper. Then comes "Wanted Man" on which Starr expounds on his sexual ability and names areas across the globe in which he's a "wanted man." And if the female reaction when The Four Horsemen played at the Samurai Said House in Oklahoma City is any indication, every bit of it is true. With "Nobody Said It Was Easy," The Four Horsemen are at the forefront of a rock revival in music today. Along with other

bands for whom the music is the only thing that matters, The Four Horsemen will rock on for a very long time, if they don't bum out first. V

BSA King all-around role model

Math Department celebrates century

By Pam Thurman

By Roger Groce Student Writer

Student Writer

Michael Williams, recently crowned Ebony King, carries on family tradition by attending the University of Central Oklahoma. Williams said his father, the Rev. Milton Williams attended UCO in the late 1960's and encouraged him to go here. "My father talked about what a good institution UCO is and I wanted to stay close to home and UCO seemed like a nice college to do that at," Williams said. Williams, a sophomore, has a band scholarship and is a member of both the marching and concert band. "I've been playing the saxaphone for nine-and-a-half years," Williams said, "I plan to venture in music a little more even though my career preference is to be a defense attorney." Williams, a criminal justice major, said he has always respected lawyers and their business-like attitude. Williams is active in the Black Student Association and was happy he was voted Ebony King. "I feel honored that I have the respect of my peers," Williams said. He attends the Baptist Student Union, and is a member of True Vine Independent Baptist Church where his father is the minister. When asked about his hobbies, Williams said, he enjoys singing, writing poetry, and "definitely socializing." He also models for C.R. Anthony. As Ebony royalty, Williams and his queen, Carla Mayes, will serve as representatives for BSA.

EBONY ROYALTY: Queen Carla Mayes and King Michael Williams

Queen is 'rare find' By Pam Thurman Student Writer

Diamonds can be found in rings, tiaras, bracelets and even in classrooms at the University of Central Oklahoma in the form of Carla Mayes, the recently crowned Ebony Queen. Mayes is a former student of civil rights activist, Clara Luper, who said she believed that all of the students she taught during her 19 years at John Marshall High School were diamonds. "The value of the diamond depends on how you treat it, you may have to dig it up, dig around it, or shine it up," Luper said. Mayes said she graduated from John Marshall in 1990 in the top 10 percent of her class. When Luper heard that Mayes had been voted Ebony Queen she said, "I'm so excited, Carla was a leader in my class. She performed extremely well and had dreams that by reading, and studying hard, she has been able to reach."

Mayes was also excited about the winning the title. "It was exciting, a great experience," Mayes said, "It built my confidence in myself because I really didn't think I was going to win. "All of us were winners, it wasn't just about the crown and the staff, just the effort and trying made us all winners," Mayes said.

Mathematics and Statistics will celebrate the 100th year anniversary of teaching mathematics at UCO Saturday. On November 9, 1891, the first day of classes were held in the Epworth League room of the unfinished First Methodist Church in Edmond. Old North was not completed until January, 1893. Dr. G. Kay Owens, Dean of the College of Mathematics and Science, will open the commemoration at 9 a.m. in the Epworth room of the First United Methodist Church, 305 E. Hurd, in Edmond, said Dr. Donald Boyce, chairman of the mathematics department. The public is invited to join guest speakers, UCO administration, faculty, and Math Club members, who will represent the original 23 students and one faculty member, Mr. Richard Thatcher, on the first day of UCO classes.

At 10:30 a.m., the group will reconvene at the UCO computer science building for refreshments. Dr. Leslie Ribera, honor graduate of UCO, will then be the guest speaker for the remainder of the commemoration, Boyce said. Ribera was elected outstanding senior during her final year at UCO and is the most recent alumni of the mathematics and statistics department to receive a doctorate. She completed her masters degree from Oklahoma State University and her doctorate at the University of Texas at Dallas. Dean Owens said she is looking forward to the commemoration. "I think it is always good to look to our past ... it helps us to build a better tomorrow," Owens said. For more information, contact Professor Boyce, at 341-2980, Ext. 5697.

last year as LSC co-champions with West Texas State, who is no longer a league affiliate. "I've been pleased with all the players," Seward said. "They've all played to the expectations we had and some cases above that." Only one starter returns, sophomore forward/center James Morris. But the Newark, New Jersey, native was the floor leader in 19 games last year before reporting for military duty in wake of the Desert Storm crisis. Morris averaged 22.2 points and 10.3 rebounds a game last year. He has been named as LSC preseason Player of the Year by the Texas A&I sports information office. UCO will play host to Fort Sill Nov. 20 in an exhibition prior to the official season opener at home Nov. 23 against the University of the Ozarks (Ark.). V

The trio of Heather Mazetis, Heather Devine and Amy Parten led a solid Central Oklahoma volleyball showing Tuesday night in a 3-0 sweep of rival Cameron before about 200 fans in Broncho Field House. UCO, 17-15 on the year and 3-3 in Lone Star Conference action struggled somewhat with a tough Lady Aggie squad, taking 15-11, 15-10 and 15-10 victories. Mazetis, a 5-10 senior middle blocker out of Leavenworth, Kan., recorded 10 kills and had an attack percentage of .350 in the final home match of her career. The Edmond-bred Devine, also a 5-10 senior, had 11 kills and a match-high 20 digs. Parten, a 5-8 junior outside hitter from Azle, Texas, had a match-best 17 kills and .277 attack percentage, along with 10 digs. The Lady Bronchos close out the regular season with matches Friday at Angelo State and Saturday at Abilene Christian. UCO returns to San Angelo Nov. 15-16 for the single-elimination LSC tournament.

Director Mike Kirk adding color commentary. ■ RANKINGS: Neither team is ranked in the NCAA II top 20. ■ SERIES: The Bronchos have In 11-6-3 edge in the series, including a forfeit win in 1981. The teams met first in 1970, with Cameron taking a 14-6 victory. The series has been close in the last five years. Each team has two wins, and a tie in the other game. The Aggies lead 5-4-1 in Lawton. ■ INJURIES: UCO Out: CB Mart Leming (knee), TE Tim Martin (knee), OL Kendall Kelton (shoulder), OL Mike Cizek (knee), DT Derek Dennis (concussion), DT Monet Bilton (ankle), SE John McGuire (collarbone), Byron Mooney (neck), OG Tommy Sauceda (knee).

Pugh's top targets are FL Joe Brown (26-370), FL Michael Ivory (16-385) and WR Derek Deshotel (17-241). Defensively, the Aggies are led by LB Che Harris (73 tackles) and SS Tommie Taylor (67 tackles). V

College improvements on hold TULSA, Okla. (AP) - Gov. David Walters' proposed S300 million bond issue for higher education apparently will have to wait until he and legislative leaders agree how to pay for it. Walters told legislative leaders Monday that he will not renew his request for the general obligation bond issue that would have paid for capital improvements at colleges and universities. Senate leader Bob Cullison and House Speaker Glen Johnson have opposed using general fund money to pay for the bond issue.

Supreme Court okays petition for next general election TULSA, Okla. (AP) - The Oklahoma Supreme Court has approved an initiative petition that would require a vote of the people on any tax increase that does not have threefourths approval in both houses of the Legislature. Officials with STOP New Taxes, which circulated the petition, have recommended State Question 640 be placed on next year's general election ballot. The governor could set the election for the regular state primary Aug. 25 or the regular primary runoff on Sept, 15. He could also call a special election, but that would cost taxpayers an additional $700,000.

Future grads need degree checks but don't wait for one to enroll Students who have accumulated 70 credit hours or more should have a degree check done by the enrollment center to determine what courses they lack -- but waiting on the degree check to help you enroll for spring semester won't help. It won't be ready by then.

TULSA, Okla. (AP) - Tulsa Junior College has joined two other Oklahoma colleges in a pilot program to electronically transfer students' transcripts. Michael Doherty, registrar at the school's Metro Campus, said preliminary tests should begin in the spring. The other two schools involved are the University of Oklahoma and Oklahoma City Community College. Doherty said if the experiment works, all 25 colleges in Oklahoma could form an electronic transfer network The transcript network would help eliminate the amount of time and some problems that students face when they transfer, he said.

OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) - Gov. David Walters recently came home from a trip to the Soviet Union encouraged about the Oklahoma petroleum industry's prospects there. Robert Strauss, U.S. ambassador to the Soviet Union, told the Oklahoma delegation that tremendous opportunities exist for U.S. oil and gas businesses in the Soviet Union, particularly in Russia.
