By Rhonda Shalaby Associate Editor Imagine waking up one morning and finding out that voting rights had been taken away. Apparently about one-half of eligible voters would not care, since around 50 percent of Americans don't bother to go to the polls, allowing others to make the decisions for them. Voting in the presidential elections seems to be viewed by many Americans as a duty rather than a priviledge. Many seem to take their right to vote for granted, and are not willing to take a few hours out of their time every four years to participate in the most important election of the nation. Citizens of other countries are giving their lives for the right to elect a president, but many Americans do not seem to even appreciate the fact that they live in a free, democratic country. Yakov Smirnoff, a Soviet-born comedian who recently became a U.S. citizen, said in a recentParade column that he was told that 'in America his voice can be heard. "I was confused," he wrote. "America is such a big country, and I have such a little voice. How will anyone hear me? Then I learned there is one place where everybody's voice can speak volumes, It's the voting booth — a wonderful invention." He went on to say that in the Soviet Union, citizens had nothing to say about who will represent them in government or what the country stands for. "Here in the voting booth,,I control all that. So do you, as long as we do it together," he wrote. Plenty of people root for and favor one candidate over another throughout the campaign, but on election day they suffer from voter apathy, and decide not to go to the polls. If they believe in what one of the candidates stands for, then they should do their part in getting him elected by casting their vote, not just for their own personal sake, but for America's sake. Will the next president of the United States be able to lower the rising $155 billion deficit? And if so, how? What does he plan to do about the spreading drug problem? How much does he plan to spend on defense? How much will he budget for social programs, such as social security? These are among many issues of this campaign that affect every Ameican as well as the future of the U.S. From abortion to gun control, Vice President George Bush and Massachusetts Governor Michael Dukakis have clearly opposing views, making it more so crucial to participate in this election. This generation of college students has been accused of being a "Me" generation, self-centered and selfish. Election '88 is a chance for young people to show they are not worthless citizens, by becoming involved in the election. In addition, the media has been covering the candidates for months now, so being uninformed is inexcusable. There is no excuse for not voting. If eligible voters will not worry about the future of the United States, then who will? ■111■1•1111111110•1=INW

ge, grain affect vote By Linda Jones Special to The Vista What do age and wheat prices have to do with presidential elections in Oklahoma? Plenty, say political science students at Central State University. Oklahomans tend to vote for the incumbent party's candidate if the candidate is older and wheat prices are high, compared to the previous months. "The reverse is also true," said Dr. Randall Jones, professor of political science, who teaches a senior level election forecasting class. "If the incumbent party candidate is younger and the economy is slow, voters choose the other party's candidate." "That's what happened to Jimmy Carter in 1980. There was quite a 13 year age difference between Carter and Nixon, and the vote in Oklahoma went against the incumbent," said Jones.
The class has used a statistical technique called "regression" to predict the presidential vote in Oklahoma using both local and national factors. For instance, using data from the last 10 to 12 presidential elections, Noble county in Oklahoma most often tracks the nation as a whole in percentage of votes. Murray county voting most often mirrors state voting. Another model devised by a student compares Oklahoma voting with other states. "We can, by putting in the numbers for the state of Florida, predict the Oklahoma vote," said Jones. Still another model compares the Gallup Poll and the second quarter economic growth rate. "On a national level, you can predict that the incumbent party candidate will win if he is leading in the Gallup Poll nearest October
1 and when the economy is doing well," said Jones. "We can also compare the big electoral vote states in the West with states in the Eastern time zone to predict those results. For instance, New Hampsire compares to California," said Jones. Class members will test their models election night, tonight. "It has really been a fascinating study, and the students have worked very hard to find the data," said Jones. "On election night it will be a matter of plugging the data into an equation and coming up with the numbers. We hope to be able to predict early in the evening how the state and nation will vote." Students will set up an Election Night Central watch party in the Office of Publications, Cornmunications Building room 104, where they will test their theories.
Regents to discuss tuition By William Philpott Student Writer The Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education will hold a public hearing tomorrow at the State Capital Complex to discuss changes in college and university tuition and fees. The regents unanimously approved an almost 45 percent tuition increase July 19. The raise, effective fall semester, was the highest tuition hike in Oklahoma
history. Central State University President Bill Lillard does not feel a tuition increase is needed. "CSU students pay 37.8 percent of the cost of education, as opposed to students from other universities and colleges, who pay around 20 to 22 percent of the cost, Lillard said. If there is an increase, he would like to see it be 10 percent, with equal appropriation funds provid-
ed by the state. The increase is basically a tax, when we don't see similar action from the state, Lillard said. The Student Advisory Board to the Oklahoma State Regents for Higher Education is in favor of a tuition increase, but it must be matched with state appropriation funds, said Jeff Shilling, chairman of the board. If we get the approvel of an inPlease see Regents on page 3.

Two recent surveys have ranked Oklahoma City as one of the most stressful cities in the nation to live in. What is your reaction to that?
Kelly Grace, sophomore, accounting major.
Joyce Boyd, freshman, sociology major.
Timothy Hugo, junior, elementary education major.
_Regina Birchall, post-graduate student, music education major.
Rhys W. Roark, junior, graphic design major.
"I've lived in Houston and New Orleans, and they are definitely more stressful than Oklahoma City. Even Tulsa is more stressful. I think any big city is stressful, but I doubt Oklahoma City is one of the most stressful in the nation."
"I would say that the reason it's stressful is that people are losing jobs because of the economy. People tend to exaggerate the crime. I don't think there's as much crime in Oklahoma as in New York or other places."
"I would agree that Oklahoma City is stressful due to the high divorce rate, and due to the bottom falling out of the oil business."
"I think it's stressful culturally and educationally. Oklahoma prides itself in being a football town and a cowboy center, and it's not interested in educational and cultural excellence, in my opinion."
"Well, I lived in Dallas was almost a year, and Dallaswas a much rougher town. I never felt the city here was particularly stressful."

CSU football team needs spirit To the Editor: Everyone has experienced "That Empty Feeling." Maybe it was the night in your youth when you were stood up on a very important date, a divorce after several years of marriage and you were the only one left still in love, or a big win you were wanting very badly and did not achieve. I have attended this university as a part-time student for several years, and I have overheard students discussing the Central State University football team. "What a shame we always lose," they say, as they blame players and coaches while never giving a thought to what part they may be playing in the circumstances. Parts such a s spirit and enthusiasm.
Letter The quote from Lou Holtz about the Nortre Dame win over Miami was, "It was the spirit of Notre Dame that won the game." How can a team have spirit when playing to an empty house? This element necessary for winning must be provided by the attendance of the students and the faculty. Most importantly, the total faculty. Even though we are not children, you are our peers and must set examples for us to follow. Whether you are an English, chemistry or business

Would you be too nights before games, with band, busy to attend one of OU's or bon-fire and all. If OU can do it, OSU's major football games if why not CSU?
Why should the football team, pompon squad, cheerleaders, band, band director and coaches put their heart and hard work and practice, practice, practice into a program to perform to an empty stadium? Empty stands result in empty feelings. Remember your time of empty feelings, remember Lou Holtz' words. This could be a start to a better next year.

Activities scheduled for smokeout day By Jett Dempsey Student Writer
Dr. Carol Parker, associate Health, Physical Education and
Central State University Cornunnity Health Majors along with thousands of other organizations across the country are teaming up with the American Cancer Society to sponsor the 1988 Great American Smokeout, Nov. 17. This is a day desinated as a non smoking day for those who want to participate.
Recreation Professor, is on the board of directors for the American Cancer Society. Dr. Parker feels that the smokeout day should go beyond just quitting for the intended 24 hours. "We're hypenning the awareness of smoking and along with the other things we are
presenting, hopefully people will kick the habit for good," said Parker. According to a press release from the American Cancer Society the campaign is not againts smokers; it is against the health risk of smoking. The main event planned at CSU for this day is a clinic held by Dr. Virginia Peters, professor of Health and Physical Education.
Sid and Nancy
The clinic is from 11:40 to 12:30 p.m. in the Senate Room of the University Center. It is free to the public. Peters has held "smoking sensation" seminars before at Oklahoma City's Presbyterian Hospital. The main theme of this clinic is the presentation of aids to help stop the habit of smoking. Several other activities are planned starting with a booth set up on the first floor of the University Center. At the booth students par-

Regents Continued from page 1 crease early enough, we can use it as a tool for lobbying for more state funds in the state legislature, he said. A reasonable increase would be in the 20 percent range. This would mean a $7 increase in lower division hour cost, and a $7.50 jump in upper division, Shilling said. "The increase is an investment in your education allowing the university to acquire better facilities in the library, research and faculty. This strengthens the degree from CSU," he said. Both Lillard and Shilling agree that there should be student participation in the budget once the funds have been acquired.
Lillard would like to have students on the university budget committees so the students can see how difficult it is to balance the budget. "You can't do it on wishful thinking," he said. Shilling would also like to form a partnership between the university and the students, so they can have genuine input into the decisions that affect their academic lives. "The university is not using the students to their fulL potential. It could be a valuable resource. ... It is a good time to do it with the new money to create new programs. The university has nothing to lose," Shilling said.

Former student starts on new career as author By Salina Nik Idris
Student Writer A former Central State University ROTC student last week presented a copy of his newly released book,' " Night of the Ranger," to Lt. Col. Larry May, department chairman for military science, who accepted it on behalf of the ROTC department. Mark Harrell, 29, was a music major at CSU from 1977 to 1979. He transfered to the University of Oklahoma and graduated in December 1981 with a degree in English education. He was a platoon leader in the Oklahoma National Guard while at OU, and entered the Army infantry officers basic course after graduation. Harrell went on to ranger school in Fort Benning, Ga. "That was the setting for the book," Harrell said. After ranger school, Harrell served as a captain in the U.S. Special Forces and completed tours of duty in Korea and West Germany. After Harrell was discharged from the Army in July, he started concentrating more on his writing. "I stayed in Germany for a few months as a civilian then felt homesick and decided to return to the United States," Harrell said. Harrell's next book, entitled "Infiltrators," will be released in October 1989, and another book entitled "Penetrators" will be out in October 1990. "'The Night of the Ranger'is a fictional story, but the setting is absolutely true. It is what I experienced when I was there," Harrell said. Harrell's book is available at CSU's University Center Bookstore.

Art Dept. awards costume prizes By Mark Mitchell
Student Writer The Central State University Art Department played host to a variety of images Oct. 28 at their annual Halloween Party. Activities included dancing, costume contests, and Win, Lose or Draw. Win, Lose, or Draw, an artistic form of Charades, found faculty members pitted against students, each team's talent challenging the other. Jo Fleharty, art department secretary and California Grape, said winning didn't matter after a
while because everybody got into the act and team lines disappeared. Marty Corf, dressed as Medusa, complete with green complexion snake hair-do and toga, said she would never wear a sheet as a costume again. "I had to readjust it (the toga/sheet) every time I got up to play (Win, Lose or Draw)." A $25 first prize and two free dinners for two consolation prizes were awarded for best costume. Ross Sherman and Jan Remy, dressed as an old man and an old woman, took home the gold; and
Elizebeth Thomas, a platypus and Oklahoma City. Tina Mansfield, a giant Hershey Fleharty's final word on the Kiss, won gift certificates from La event was "A good time was had Villa, a Mexican restaurant in by all."

Honors classes begin By Tina Davis Student Writer The first honors program for the College of Liberal Arts went into effect Nov. 2, said Dr. Clif' Warren, dean of liberal arts. "There have been classes designated as honors courses but never a program as such," said Warren. The program was modeled after the Florida University system with some revisions and a contract between the student and teacher, according to a memo from Warren explaining the program. The Honors Program is available to students with proven academic achievement. which is defined as "an A.C.T. test score
of 22 or higher, or a score of 18-21 with a letter of recommendation that has been submitted for evaluation and approval by the Honors Program Faculty Cornmittee," according to the contract. The student has to enter the program with a 3.0 grade point average and maintain that average throughout the course of studies, according to the contract. The studies must include nine hours of honors courses within the major and three thesis hours. The thesis is supervised by a departmental Mentor and reviewed by the Honors Program Faculty Committee. "It's going to be more intense-
not necessarily more work," said Warren. Students take course work from the regular curriculum but more detailed in subject material. He said that students are entering the program with a B average and will be expected to do good work. Warren said there are added benefits to the classes in the program. One of those is that guest speakers who cannot visit many of the classes because of a limited amount of time would visit the honors classes. "Major with Honors" will appear on the student's transcript and diploma after completion of these requirements.
Choral festival scheduled By Michelle Dooner Student Writer The Central State University music department will hold its annual Choral Festival Nov. 10 in the University Center Ballroom.

Sports Defense shines as CSU beats Aggies By Mark Finley
Sports Editor It's a good thing that statistics don't win football games, because if it did the Central State Bronchos would have lost to the Cameron Aggies in a big way Saturday. But, statistics don't win football games. It's the team that scores the most points. And that's what CSU did as they used a bending but not breaking defense while the offense provided enough points for the Bronchos to defeat the defending NAIA national champs from Lawton 12-10 at a windy Wantland Stadium. Looking at the stats, one would wonder how? Cameron had 22 first downs to CSU's five. Cameron had 347 yards total offense compared to only 120 for CSU. The Bronchos ran only 45 plays on offense, while the Aggies got off 85 plays. The time of possesion reflects the number of plays as Cameron held the ball 13 minutes longer. So, how did the Bronchos pull it off? The main reason is probably that the CSU defense kept coming through when it needed to as they stopped three Aggie drives inside their own 30-yard line. Included in that was a goal-line stand early in the fourth quarter with the Bronchos leading 12-10. Cameron started the ill-fated drive late in the third quarter on their own 42. Aggie quarterback Roosevelt Gamble guided his team down the field as he mixed up the pass and the run to set his troops up with a first down at the CSU 5-yard line to begin the fourth quarter. On first down, Gamble went right on a keeper play that gained two yards. Then Gamble kept again for another two yards to the one. On third down, Robert Whitman got the call but was denied the end zone as CSU nose guard Tony Bryan brought down the Aggie tailback just inches short of the goal. Following a Cameron time-out, he Aggies decided to go for the ouchdown rather than attempt a field goal into the teeth of a fierce north wind that gusted at times hroughout the game around 50 niles-per-hour. Broncho' defenive end Dean Shinault came up vith the big tackle as Aggie fullback Kerry Kyle got the call up the middle which was stuffed by linebacker Marty Irland and the nose guard Bryan. This allowed Shinault to come up with the play and the ball went over to CSU. "We just knew they were corning up the middle," said Irland about the fourth-and-goal call. "We were in a 74-down and I got up on the nose guard and we just held'em. We played today the way Broncho' football is supposed to
be played." The CSU defense, however, was not through as they had to make one more stand against the Aggies to preserve their victory. It came on Cameron's next possession after their failure at the Bronchos goal line. Cameron, following a CSU punt, had the ball on their own 48. From their they moved to a first down at the Bronchos' 18-yard line. After Whitman gained nothing on first down and an incomplete pass by Gamble, CSU's Bryan sacked Gamble on third down for a seven yard loss and Cameron faced a fourthand-17 at the Broncho' 25. Going into the wind, Cameron had to rule out the field goal and so they went for it. But trying to throw into the wind, Gamble's pass never had a chance as CSU's strong safety Trevor Fike knocked it away from Aggie tight end Bryan Weems at around the fiveyard line and the Bronchos took over with 5:30 left in the game. The Broncho' offense took it from their as they chewed up almost five minutes by keeping it on the ground before having to punt the ball back, but not before they had crossed midfield and had used up enough of the clock that Cameron had no chance. Following the punt, the Aggies were 80 yards away with no timeouts and the wind blowing in their face and only 50 seconds left. Three incomplete passes led to the final hurrah for Cameron, but defensive tackle Brent Lane put the capper on the CSU defensive day by sacking Gamble on fourth down and ruining the Aggie' hopes of gaining a NAIA play-off berth. The wind conditions played a major role as that was evident on the coin toss. CSU won the toss and elected to defend the north goal. The move immediately paid off as Cameron was forced to punt from their own 18-yard line following the opening kick-off. Aggie punter Daniel Henry was only able to get off a 12-yard punt into the stiff breeze, and CSU was in business at the Cameron 30. The Bronchos however could not move on the Aggie defense and were forced to try a field goal. CSU place-kicker Kelly Nasworthy came on a drilled a 44-yard field goal and the Bronchos led 3-0. After the kick-off, Cameron was at their own 30 when Whitman fumbled the hand-off from Gamble and CSU linebacker Mike Bennett came up with the recovery at the Aggie' 33-yard line. After picking up a first down, the CSU offense was stopped and again was forced to bring on the field goal unit. Nasworthy's attempt from 39 yards out was true and the Bronchos lead was ex-

The Aggies started their drive at midfield and drove to the CSU 11 before stalling. CSU took back the lead as they scored the game's last points on a 75-yard drive following the Cameron field goal. Tailback Pinkey Hurley, who missed last week's game with a shoulder injury, was the catalyst as he rushed for 64 of those yards. Included in that was a run of 34 yards on a third-and-three that took the ball to the Cameron 36-yard line. But the big play occurred when on fourth down-and-two at the Aggie' 23 Hurley, who led the Broncho' offense with 85 yards rushing on 11 carries, ripped off a 20-yard run around the left side to the Cameron three-yard line.

Dwayne Antonio placed third and fourth respectively to qualify for the national meet to be run on Nov. 19 in Kenosha, Wis. Smargiassi quickly jumped out to about a 25-yard lead on the rest of the women's field and was never challenged as she finished the 5,000 meter course in 20:28. Paula Sawyer finished in fifth place with a time of 21:56 to gain a spot at the national meet to be held at the same time and place as the men's. "I feel pretty good about going to nationals," said Smargiassi, a married mother of two. "I just wish the whole team could go because they really worked hard this year, but we gave it our best shot." "I can't wait to go to nationals and have some fun," said Sawyer. "I'm just sorry the team can't go. We're just like family." Both Smargiassi and Sawyer, along with Heffernan and Antonio will represent CSU as the top five runners from every district meet qualifies for nationals. OBU will send both of its teams since they both were district champs. In the men's race, Schouw broke open a close race at the halfway point and cruised to victory by 14 seconds over his teammate White. Heffernan, finishing third, qualified for his third national meet running the 8,000 meter course at Oklahoma Christian College in his fastest time ever on this course in 26:14. "It feels great going to nationals again," said Heffernan. "I just wish I could of caught the guy (White) for second. That would have tied us for the championship and both teams would have gone to the national meet." Antonio will also go to nationals as he ran the course in 26:23 in finishing fourth. "I thought I could have run better," said Antonio. "I really thought we had a good chance at winning it. "This is a tough course and we did the best we could," said CSU cross country coach Paul Parent. "When these three schools get together, it's bedlam."

'A Chorus Line' scheduled Job talks announced By Larry Smith Student Writer The Central State University music theatre department will present "A Chorus Line," at 8 p.m. Nov.18, 2:30 p.m. and 8 p.m. Nov. 19, and 2:30 p.m. Nov. 20 in the Mitchell Hall Theatre. "The musical is a slice of life showing what people who audition for stage roles go through to get a job, how it effects their lives and finances," said Tamara Long, assistant professor in the music department. "This is one of the most difficult plays for actors, singers, and especially dancers because of the choreography involved in the production," said Long. "A Chorus Line" opened on Broadway as part of the New
York Shakespeare Festival in 1975 and is still running. "The book written for this musical is by James Kirkwood and Nicholas Dante; the score is by Marvin Hamlish; the lyrics by Edward Klebin; and the director/choreographer is Michael Bennett," said Long. People involved in the campus production in addition to Long are, Mark York of York Productions in Oklahoma City as Long's assistant and music director; Mark Crostin, choreographer; Dr. Kent Kidwell, CSU professor of music, conductor; and Matt Astin, technical director. "We will be using the CSU orchestra only rather than outside musicians for this production to show the talent of the students
Cultural flavor tasted at International Night By Jerry Pierce Student Writer Food, literature, art and entertainment representing 14 countries were featured Thursday night at Central State University's annual International Night, sponsored by the International Education Committee in honor of CSU's international students. International Night started with a reception on the third floor of the University Center with tables featuring food and art from various countries, followed by a program in the University Center Ballroom which featured such things as a "mock" newscast, several fashion shows and a mar-
tial arts demonstration. Students from Peru, Indonesia . Bangladesh, Pakistan, Malaysia, India, Iran, Republic of Singapore, Peoples Republic of China, Ethiopia, Colombia, Japan, Korea and the Federated States of Micronesia participated in the program. Minhaz Choudhury, junior finance major from Bangladesh, said he would like to see more countries represented. "I would like to see a larger extent of the countries here," said Choudhury. Not all the countries who have students at CSU get involved in International Night, he said.
