Alum awards $50,000 starts scholarship fund

By Coni Overturf The CSU Foundation has received a $50,000 donation from the Tracy Family Memorial Trust Fund.

The cash gift will be used to establish a scholarship fund program for elementary education majors, said John "Skip" Wagnon, executive director of the Alumni Association.

The donation was awarded to the university during Homecoming Week by Stuart B. Tracy of Las Cruces, Mew Mexico. Tracy established the fund in memory of his wife Edna Murphy.

According to Wagnon, the scholarships will be available for the fall semester of 1983. Applications will be made avaliable beginning in March.

"Scholarships will be limited to people in elementary education only," he said, "and will be administered through the school of education."

At the present time only two scholarships are avaliable specifically for elementary education majors; the Margret Corr Scholarship Fund and the Pauline Evans Frazier Memorial Scholarship Fund.

Edna Tracy was a 1939 graduate of Central State College. She retired after 39 years in elementary education. Mrs. Tracy was born in Fairfax in 1909 and graduated from Fairfax High School in 1927.

Mrs Tracy was an active member in her church and held numerous leadership rolls in the Order of the Eastern Star. Edna also helped organize the New Mexico chapter of Kappa Kappa Iota. She died on January 19,1982.

"New blood" seeks Student Senate

By Mike Sherman Assistant Editor The Student Senate will hold elections for president, vice president and secretary-treasurer Wednesday Nov. 17 with none of the current office holders seeking re-election.

"It takes a lot of time to be on the Student Senate," said Senate President Tim Reese. "I would just like to leave it open for some new blood."

Vice President Susan Witt and Mary Kelley, secretary-treasurer, are graduating in December.

As of 12:30 p.m. Monday, Derek Haney, John Roper and Joe McCourry had submitted petitions to run for the office of president vacated by Reese.

The race for vice president includes Tami Fischer and Jimmy Adsit with Mike Cook and Sherri Andrews are running for secretary-treasurer. Reese said that no other candidates would be considered for the offices, however those who had applied had to be "checked out."

In order to be considered, a

candidate must maintain a 2.5 grade point average and have completed at least 15 hours at CSU or have served a full semester on the senate. He or she must also be currently enrolled in 9 hours and passing in these classes, said Reese.

The elections will be held 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. and from 5-9

p.m. in the Activities Corner of the first floor of the University Center.

If elected, the candidates will begin their terms when classes resume following the winter break.

Prior to the election, the "new blood" will have their chance to go before the student body Mon-

day, Nov 15 at 9:40 a.m. in the Liberal Arts Auditorium. They will participate in an open forum sponsored by the political science department.

The candidates will each be given a chance to speak on the issues they feel are important to CSU, said Reese, and it will be the only oppurtunity for the students

to ask questions before the elections.

In other Student Senate developments, three senate seats have been filled. Paul Collins,

Kathy Bray and Don Heany were appointed to the seats. Reese there are still two seats to be filled and anyone interested should contact him.

Student evaluations serve purpose

By Mike Sherman Assistant Editor Student evaluations, although they are currently available for viewing by the individual instructors, have served their purpose, according to Tim Reese, out going president of the Student Senate.

"The professor can look back and evaluate his own performance," said Reese. "If he is not performing well and he receives a lot of negative feedback in the evaluations. he can go back and

take a second look at his methods.

This is the most valuable part of these things."

The nature of these evaluations may change though, Reese stated.

"I would ultimately like to see them put in the library," he said, "so other students could see how other students have fared in certain classes. I have wasted my money in some classes and have got more than my money's worth in others."

Making the evaluations available in the library has not been tabled in either the Student Senate or the Faculty Senate and Reese said he expects that such a proposal would be resisted by most of the faculty but discussion on the issue may be initiated in the spring.

Reese, who has served as president for two years, has decided to step down in order to allow more time for his studies. During his term as president he has pushed for changes on campus such as instituting a fall break, and

beautification program for the campus and a increased budget

for student activities and the student evaluations.

The evaluations, however, may have been the toughest obstacle, admits Reese.

"It was a definite uphill battle," said Reese of the opposition the proposal received from some of the faculty members. "A lot of professors thought that their tenure would be based only on the observations.

"I don't think these evaluations should ever be taken into consideration for tenure and promotions. Some instructors are diffice and some students would

Reese emphasized that the "grades" given by the students must remain anonymous in order to protect the students.

"I don't think the students take advantage of them. But I do think that they need to remain anonymous in order to protect a student from retribution by a instructor," said Reese. "This is also why they are done at the end of the semester."

give c a lower evaluation bec:ae of this."

Reese said a problem occurs because some students tend to give instructors who grade easier a higher mark and those who are strict in their policies a poor one.

Currently, the evaluations remain under a experimental format. Anne Lynch, president of the Faculty Senate had earlier stated that a vote on whether the future of the evaluations may come up this semester. As of yet, there ilas ,een no futher decision.

TIRE "STIIISICAL

(USPS 661-700)

After having a discussion with the chief of campus security, it was brought to my attention that there has not been an investigation on the actual number of parking spaces available and the number of students that drive during the peak attendance times.

Chief Dunn estimated that there are 6,600 parking spaces available and approximately 6,000 students in attendance during the peak hours.

If this is true, where are these elusive 600 parking spaces? As stated before, illegally parked cars can be found everywhere. The administration and

student cars that are parked offcampus on side streets must also be accounted for.

Issuing parking tickets to illegally parked cars is not a complete solution to this problem. A comprehensive study should be done to establish just how many parking spaces are on campus and available for commuter students.

The issuing of parking tickets should stop until the study is finished so that students can get to class on time without worrying about getting tickets.

Criticisms of satellite dish proves author's ignorance Letter to the editor:

I often wondered why so many uninformed people voice there opinion on something they know nothing about.

Last week there was an article on the appearance of the new satellite dish.

Because of the sarcastic remarks, the writer obviously has no knowledge on why this satellite is so important.

Back in the 19th Century a revolution in communications began with the invention of the electric telegraph. I'm sure there were plenty of ignorant people who criticized the appearance of this odd looking device. Today the broadcasting field is one of the fastest growing technological industries we have.

It's up to the university to provide the students with the most advanced equipment. This will further our education, so that we, as students, may survive the demands placed upon us when we finally reach the real world of broadcasting.

The "communications via earth satellite" here at CSU offers so much potential and goes far beyond any other previous methods of telecommunications.

It's very unfortunate that some people have such limited interests and don't allow room for others to expand.

keep the family afloat ecomomically.

Divorced, rebuilding self-esteem and very likely trying to learn how to compete in a job market, we may not be sure how to spell! Since some of us were watered, fed and pruned for years of vegetation (If you card call devotion to family, complete with PTA attendance, car-pooling and general house cleaning "vegetation") we bought "hook-line-and sinker" a kind of pseudo-security that was being promoted at the time we said "I do", little knowing how social patterns would change the significance of that ceremonial affirmation.

Now, this category is a spunky group of females, but psychologically they may be easily intimidated by your youth and quick grasp of issues in a classroom setting. Commuting back and forth, they sometimes assuage their shaky egos with, "Yeah, but can they (fellow classmates) deal effectively with plumbers, carpenters and household budgeting? Could they handle the heartbreak of soriasis, varicose veins or the demands of being a "single parent?"

Or widowed, those whose primary long-term love relationship irreparably ended with their dreams and plans for a secure future. And in some ways this alienation from the loved object resembles the loss of divorce. The widow must pick up and start over with all her memories carried into the classroom, but kept dormant.

So, here we are; the "invaders," a large and growing group of middle-age women, or thereabout, with so much to learn and you, the younger generation, with a thing or two to teach us simply by being exposed to you and your ideas.

Local, State and World News Escapees return to jail Two escapees from McAlester State Prison are back in jail after trying to rob an Oklahoma City man.

Phil Carson of northwest Okllahoma City came home Monday to find that several of his rifles had been stolen. The man returned to his pickup, only to be fired upon by one of the convicts.

Carson said that he then pulled a gun out of his vehicle and told the man to give up. The convict and a second man nearby fled on foot, but not before Carson was able to drive to their vehicle, stolen in McAlester, and shoot out a tire.

Karrale Draper, one of the escapees, was able to steal Carson's pickup and crashed it into the homeowner's garage before turning back onto the road. Cars o.n garage before turning back onto the road. Carson pumped bullets into the pickup and tires, causing Draper to crash into a fence down the road.

Draper and his prisonmate, Ronald Koonce, then tried to flee in the McAlester vehicle, but were caught by the Bethany police.

Draper and Koonce were booked on charges of assault with a deadly weapon. Both men were sentenced to death prior to the 1977 U.S. Supreme Court declaration that capital punishment was unconstitutional. Both had prior records of escape.

Department faces cuts The Oklahoma Department of Human Services put a freeze on all hirings, promotions and new programs Monday in an effort to balance its budget.

Their finance division has already predicted a $80 billion shortfall for this fiscal year, with the possibility of losing $20 million more in federal matching funds.

The department receives partial funding from the state's 2 percent sales tax. Revenues have declined 9 percent from last October's totals, a loss of $3.1 million.

The department had already restricted out-of-state travel and had left vacant positions unfilled. A pileup of unprocessed food stamp claims has been reported from offices throughout the state.

Council needs Edmond youth

By Judy James

The Edmond Youth Council (EYC) will begin their Friends Program at 7 p.m. Thursday in an attempt to provide a positive adult role model for Edmond area preteens and early teens.

The EYC is beginning the program because of the need of such a program that they have seen in Edmond, according to Joey Shaw, program director.

"Probably half of the families we work with at EYC are in a broken home situation and there are even more that have been in this situation at one time or another," said Shaw.

"A separation or divorce can leave a child lonely and alienated because of a lack of involvement with the family. Having a 'Big Friend' will help this by providing a positive role model and developing a meaningful relationship with the 'Little Friend."'

Shaw also emphasized that not all the youth involved in the program will be from broken homes.

"There are those parents who are not able, for one reason or another, to spend adequate time with their children."

To ensure that they have positive qualities they can pass on the child, Shaw said potential Big Friends will be screened. They will be asked to spend a minimum of

four hours a week with their Little Friend. There will also be a monthly meeting for the Big Friends to ask questions and discuss any problems they might be having.

The program, which is modeled after Big BrothersBig Sisters, is in need of male and female volunteers, age 18 and over, who

have good, quality characteristics in their own lives and who can commit themselves to their Little Friend.

Anyone interested in being a Big Friend or who has a child who could benefit from this program is encouraged by Shaw to contact him at 341-3554.

Grants finance option in business journalism

By Patricia Uselton

Two foundations, a private company and the Alumni Association have donated $5,500 to start a proposed degree option in business and economic journalism.

"The degree came about with the realization that most students coming out of journalism schools have so little knowledge of economics that they couldn't write about it," said Dr. Ray Tassin, chairman of the journalism department.

The Phillips Petroleum Foundation, Inc. and the Gridiron Foundation each donated $2,000 to the project, which was submitted to the Board of Regents for Higher Education last spring. The

Oklahoma Natural Gas Co. has given $1,000 and the association has given $500.

The sequence was designed by a committee of journalism, economic and business professors to train writers to understand economic theory, business terminology, corporate and government financing and legal restraints.

Campus has space for future improvements

By Wendy Johnson In taking a good look at Cal's campus, it seems to be expanding in all directions. The next question may be, is CSU running out of room?". The answer, according to Alvii Alcorn, vice president of administration, is no.

In 1890, Anton Classen donated 40 acres of land and Oklahoma County donated 55,000 in bonds for the building of the Central Oklahoma Territorial Normal School. Only ten of Classen's acres were to be used for the campus.

The first building of the Normal School, the Old North Tow er, was completed in 1893. making CSU the first school of higher education to be erected in the territory of Oklahoma.

From the first class of 23 people which was held in November 1891, CSU has had at one time over 13,000 students enrolled. The campus has grown from the first

ten acres to 200 acres and the campus now houses o\ er 27 different buildings including. a driving range and the football stadium.

From a graduating class of two men and three w omen in 1897, the enrollment for the all semester, 1982, is 12,309. And, from a territorial normal school, the campus w as designated as Central State College in 1939. and in 1971 became Central State UM\ ersity.

Only S5,000 w as used to start the campus, but, by the estimates of Alcorn, die life sciences building should cost about SI million.

Since 1982 has not actually been a peak year in enrollment, the number of students seems to be leveling off. .Alcorn commented that CSU probabl\ has at least 40 acres to spare.

"Most of the students should have grandchildren long before CSU w ill be in any danger of running out of room," he said.

Student artist's window display to promote campus art program

By Carrie Simnacher The advanced advertising and design class has created three window displays which will not only promote the art department, but also bring the business and art world together.

"The project was started to bring people to the art department so that they can see that the fine arts and commercial art can offer service to the community," said Dr. Margaret Gaeddert, commercial art instructor.

She further commented that the students involved in the project not only 'polished up' their artistic talent but also learned a little about the roles of professional advertisers.

"I approached students as if each were a prospective client and after reviewing academic credentials, interest, creativity and general knowledge of the project, I assigned an art director and three staff artists to each window," said Gaeddert.

Don Whitcraft demonstrates safety requirements for the use of a skill saw during his trade and industrial art education class. The class is a new program started by Dr. Richard Sullivan.

The first window, "Tools of the Trade," was designed by Wayne Carlisle, art director; Amy Allison, Harly Darnell, and Doug Lacina, staff artists.

Paper mache sculptures of the tools which are

familiar to the artists are set against a collage of magazine ads and posters.

The second window, "Hooked on Art," is a representation of an acquarium, but the fish depict various art instructors. Gaeddert, who recently had a child, is shown as a larger fish followed by a baby fish.

The creators of this window are Shelley Moody, art director; and staff artists are Lavon Horne, Kathy Berg, and Regina Waters.

The third window, "It's a Jungle in There," is a peep show designed by Sheila Sells, art director; David Canavesio, Ilene Coventry and James Lambert, staff artists.

Art instruments which have been shaped into creatures can be seen by peering through the foilage of a construction paper jungle in this window.

"The project should bring in both businesses and browsers. Anyone interested can see the logo work and brochure designs of the students involved in the projects by contacting Hall Duncan, advertising and design instructor, or myself," said Gaeddert.

The windows will be displayed for the next two to three weeks in the foyer of the art department.

Pollen analysis helps determine Oklahoma's age

By Tonia Sykes Oklahoma's ferndale (peat) bogs, located in Atoka County at the southwestern edge of the Ouachita Mountains, are currently being studied by the Oklahoma Archaeological Survey (OAS), according to Dr. Lois Albert, archaeologist at OAS. Albert's lecture, "Methods of Dating", presented to CSU archaeology students on Oct. 28, revealed dating methods used in anthropological-archaeological studies not only in Oklahoma but also throughout North America.

Pollen analysis and core sampl-

ing are two methods being used at the ferndale bogs site.

"Core sampling is a process whereby a cylindrical instrument is forced deeply into the ground to retrieve soil and-or sediment samples. Analysis of the pollen content in these samples will reveal characteristics of the land during a particular time.

"We have dated samples from this area to 5,170 years - plus or minus 80 years (factor allowed for contamination of sample)."

These samples also reveal a

decrease in grass pollen and an increase in oak trees which is indicative of a Savannah-like terrain - grassy area with scattered trees at the end of a long, dry, warm period, she said.

"Dating techniques in archaeology are very important for two reasons. First to be certain the samples examined belong to the time period one is trying to define.

And secondly, to date the sequence of events to ascertain how the development occurred and the time span of development.

"It is mandatory to be extremely careful when sampling. People 1111111111111111411014

must be certain the material is what they think it is," emphasized Albert.

A sample found at an archaelogical site in Texas was classified as soft charcoal and dated to 35,000 years. Further examination revealed the sample was lignite (coal), she said.

"Probably the most important dating technique currently used in North America is radio carbon dating," stated Albert.

Radioactive isotopes of carbon (Carbon 14) exist in the earth's atmosphere and enter the life cycle of plants and animals after reacting with atmospheric oxygen to form carbon dioxide.

"When a plant dies, the Carbon 14 process ceases. Therefore, it is possible to determine the age of an organic sample by ascertaining its specific Carbon 14 activity," explained Albert.

Most reliable sample for dating is wood charcoal because it is almost pure carbon. Utilization of wood samples combines radio carbon dating and dendrochronology, the science of

dating events and variations in environment in former periods by comparative study of growth rings in trees and aged wood.

"When using wood, we determine an average based on all the tree rings included in the sample," said Albert. "This average would depend on how large the sample is - outside rings which tend to date the site are usually lost in ashing (when burned)."

Other materials used are peat, hair, skin, leather, textiles, antlers and paper. Bones are not that reliable. They contain little protein, are broken down in the soil and are easily contaminated, she said.

Other methods used for dating include accelerators or highenergy mass spectrometers which measure the mass of ion (atom); potassium and argon dating, use of radioactive-volcanic samples which must be in crystalline form; fission track dating, again using radioactive—volcanic samples; and archeomagnetic dating, use of samples containing iron and results are based on changes in direction of earth's magnetic field through time.

Suspense and action makes "First Blood" outstanding movie

By Mark Spears Sylvester Stallone's new movie "First Blood" is packed with action and suspense.

Stallone plays a drifter who was an ex-Green Beret and a Vietnam war hero. He is arrested in a small town for no reason and is charged with vagrancy.

NA, bile in the process of being booked for his crime, Stallone's m.mory flashes back to his experiences as a prisoner of war.

He finally loses control and breaks out of the prison. He ends up in the mountains were he is hunted however because of his war experience he seems to be the hunter and not the hunted.

Industrial its helps prepare for careers

By Cindy Smith CSU's Department of Industrial Education, located in the center of campus, offers several different career opportunities for students interested in the field.

It is one of seven departments on this campus in the School of Special Arts and Sciences.

"Our staff consists of individuals that are experienced and competent in a variety of industrial fields," said Dr. Emmet Osgood, chairman of the department. "We work to train students in the latest trends of industry."

The construction practice class is presently in the process of building an additional room to the Industrial Arts Building.

The Department of Industrial Education offers five baccalaureate degree options including: Industrial Education (teaching), Trade and Industrial Education (teaching), Industrial Education (general), Industrial Technology and Construction Technology.

The teaching options lead to certification to teach in the State of Oklahoma. The non-teaching options prepare the student for employment in industry.

CSU offers a Master of Education Degree with specialization in Industrial Education and a Master of Education Degree for teaching in a junior college.

The university offers various Industrial Art workshops and seminars.

Included in these was a recent seminar entitled, "Earth Sheltered Homes-Design and Construction."

Health center aids students with common cold

By Tonia Sykes Sneezing? Coughing?

Headaches? Upset stomach?

Relief for these symptoms and other health-related problems can be found at the CSU Student Health Center located between Murdaugh Hall and West Hall.

Health center facilities are available at all times. Students who need to visit the center at night or on weekends should call the nurse in advance. at 341-2980 or Ext. 317. If this is not possible, the service bell at the front door will summon the nurse.

"We have many oral medications for early colds, sinusitis, bronchitis, hay fever, sore throats, nausea and gastro upsets," said Beth Camblin, director of the center. "All medications are prescribed by doctors who come to the center at 12:30 p.m. Mon.-Fri. for sick call."

Prescriptions from a student's family doctor may also be filled at the center if the medication is available. The center's regular cost is charged for this service.

"Influenza injections are offered and encouraged at $3 each," said Camblin. "These should start in the fall (Sept.-Dec.). Faculty and staff are eligible for these injections also."

"All students must present their ID cards prior to consultation.

Students are expected to pay for services when rendered. Credit is possible in extenuating circumstances, but we reserve the right to refuse credit at anytime," Camblin emphasized.

The center has a 10-bed capacity - five men and five women. A patient must have a fever of 99 degrees to be admitted to the center.

"Feverous patients are usually in the contagious stage and need to be isolated. Therefore, visitors are not allowed at any time," Camblin stated. "Messages, mail or personal articles for a patient can be left at the front desk."

Patient meals are served by Central Cafeteria. Students who do not have a meal ticket will be charged accordingly.

Charges for an in-center stay

Bronchos try 'Buddy' system

By Mike Sherman Assistant Editor They were calling Randy Page "the Snake," likening him to former Oakland Raiders quarterback Ken Stabler. Steve McKeaver, it was noted, should get a few votes for the Heisman Trophy. Broncho lineman David Rolle would be a hands down winner for the Outland Trophy, the honor bestowed upon the nation's best lineman.

These superlatives came from the mouths of Broncho fans during and after their last home game, a 38-6 landslide over Cameron. It was their way of telling the team thanks for a successful season.

The helmet-heads are still in the NAIA playoff picture, ranked 10th in last week's poll. They still, however, could be like the bride left waiting at the altar if some other top 10 squads don't get knocked off.

Many of the Broncho players say they are the hottest team in the country. Unfortunately, they aren't the ones who make the playoff pairings. Stay tuned.

Maybe, just maybe, some of the spirit which was evident at the home pigskin finale could carry over into the upcoming basketball and wrestling season. Last year, the Broncho home games were so poorly attended that one local sportswriter found the press table was the most crowded portion of Btoncho Field House.

HOOPS: Eddie Evans' undisciplined reign has ended at CSU, and the new coach in town, Buddy Armstrong (no relation to Buddy Broncho) has decided to enstill some discipline in the 1982-82 version of Broncho Ball.

Armstrong's practice sessions, which the players not so affectionately call the "Buddy System," are designed to get the players in shape, and the U.S. Marines might be wise to take a look at it for use on their recruits. It is not odd to see a cager trotting up and down the field house stairs as a result of a mental error in practice, something which would have been unheard of before.

Needless to say, there will be no locker room chair-throwing incidents like last year, or players dogging it in the games while Mr. Armstrong is around.

Armstrong, by the way, is a former Broncho hoopster, and played on the 1963-64 squad, the last to advance to the NAIA National Tournament. He also coached Del City High School to a state championship a count ,- vrqrs back.

Coc.:h John Keely is busy getting the Lady Bronchos ready for their ope._.?r, also. The ladies travel to Bethany Nazarene for their first contest. Only back-up center Donna Miller is missing from last year's squad that finished eighth in the disbanded AIAW. The Bronchettes must now compete in the NAIA set-up, which is supposed to be a tougher league.

INTRAMURALS: With football season winding down, the GDI's have captured the women's title. The men's title, however, will not finish as cut and dried.

The Stray Cats, a team which included Broncho varsity athletes present and past, finished undefeated in the mens' division. Due to the athletes' practice schedules, however, they were unable to compete in the playoffs. Too bad guys, but it seems like intermural sports were meant for is washed-up, former high school jocks anyway.

Parks leads harriers to District Nine crown The Broncho harriers completely outclassed their nearest cornpettion as they stormed to their second consecutive District Nine title at Oklahoma Christian College last week.

CSU, as has been the story all season, was led by Ronnie Parks, who capped off a brilliant year so far with a first place time of 25:01,

Paul Parent

Jim Brackeen ran a 25:48 for third place while Lamont Frazier came in fourth with a 25:57. It marked the first time in weeks that Frazier, who'd suffered with a knee injury, had competed.

Jeff Murr posted a time of 26:12 to take the fifth spot. Joe Scott took ninth with a 26:57 while Tim Moore rounded out the top ten with a time of 27:05.

Crais Hall was 11th with a 27:13, Rodney Buss was 13th with a time of 27:16 and Willie Curlevchief finished 15th with a 27:35.

CSU finished with 22 points, well ahead of runner-up OCC with 43. Oklahoma Baptist was third with 67 points.

Both CSU and OCC will advance to the national meet at Kenosha, Wis. on November 20.

OCC will be allowed to participate by virtue of the Bronchos' top ten finish in the meet last year.

Daric Zeno jumps for a reception against Langston, one of nine he pulled in for 213 yards.

Bronchos execute Lions 52-6 The last few weeks have been a trying time for Broncho football fans. It's becoming more difficult to endure through a Broncho game past the third quarter, but not in the custom Rice, Kansas or Oregon State fans are use to. CSU has outscored its last three opponents by a 139-24 margin, including Saturday's 52-6 laugher over the Langston Lions in the season finale.

The Bronchos failed miserably in trying to keep the kittens or Lions in the contest by scoring touchdowns on their first five possessions. The main offenders in this `cat-nap' were Randy Page, Daric Zeno and a very selfish and stingy Bronco defense.

Page shattered the CSU single season passing record with 311 yards and Zeno did the same to the receiving record as he latched on to nine passes for 213 yards and two touchdowns. For his efforts, Zeno was named the Offensive player of the Week for District Nine. Zeno finished the season with 38 receptionsfor 824 yards and seven touchdowns.

Page has 1,777 yards passing and 2,033 yards in total offense, just 38 short of the school record held by Scott Burger. For the game he completed 13 of 21 passes.

The two battery mates hooked up on the longest play of the night, a pass play covering 60 yards for a touchdown, on CSU's opening possession. Craig Dawkins first missed extra point since the first game of the season, left a little tension in the atmosphere.

But hopes of a close game were quickly put to rest, along with the Lions, on CSU's next possession.

The Bronchos rambled 50 yards in seven plays to go up 12-0 on a 17 yard scamper by Steve McKeaver, the first of three touchdowns for CSU's rushing leader. However,

he came up just short on a two point conversion run.

For all intensive purposes the game was over with that touchdown, although there was still the matter between Page* Zeno and the record books. All three came together with just over a minute left in the first quarter and CSU driving for a fourth touchdown.

After a defensive pass interference call on first down moved the ball to the LU 16, Page found Zeno for a 11 yard gain, and two new names were added to the Broncho Media Guide.

McKeaver got the touchdown on a one yard run, the same means by which he picked up CSU's third touchdown. About the only thing the Bronchos failed to do right in the quarter was convert on extra point efforts.

While the offense was building a 24 point lead, the defense was getting a few lessons in jogging; mainly jogging on to the field, playing four downs and jogging back off. Using this new technique, CSU pitched a shutout, as far as first downs, in the opening quarter and gave up just 14 yards in offense.

Page's only mistake of the night, an interception at the CSU 35, set up LU's lone score. Stating at the 27, Langston covered the distance in four plays, the touchdown came on an 18 yard run from Ricky Williams. The ensuing extra point attempt, a 52 yarder following unsportsmanlike conduct, offsides and delay of game penalties against LU, was wide.

The Bronchos retaliated with an eight play, 77 yard drive, scoring on a Page to Zeno to McKeaver pass play, that looked like it might have been diagramed in the dirt during a huddle. Actually, Page hit Zeno for a 17 yard gain and Zeno then lateraled to McKeaver, .

via the flea-flicker, for 52 yards and the score.

Willie Henderson's 66 yard punt at the start of the second half set up CSU's sixth touchdown. The punt pinned the Lions at their own four and Williams fumbled at his sixth on second down and Dannye Webb recovered for CSU. On first down, Page went to his favorite target, Zeno, in the endzone but Langston had read the play . Apparently the Lions found the easiest way to cover the elusive Zeno was to knock him down, which they did, twice. The resulting interference penalty moved the ball to the one where Gerry Flannel ran it over for the touchdown.

Zeno gained a little revenge for his rough treatment by hauling in a 23 yard touchdown pass from Page to cap CSU's next possession. The drive covered 85 yards in nine plays and included a 57 yard pass play that was called back because of a holding penalty.

Randy Preston, following in older brother John's footsteps, turned in a 27 yard interception return for CSU's final touchdown. Between them, the Preston brothers have accounted for five interceptions and three touchdowns.

For the game, the Bronchos rolled up 416 yards in offense compared to 212 for Langston and only 66 in the opening half.

The Lions were dropped for 38 yards in losses. CSU's defense was led by John Preston with nine tackles, although almost everyone saw some duty in the execution style attack.

McKeaver led all Broncho rushers with 53 yards on 14 carries followed by sophomore Marvel Rogers who had a career high 38 yards n four carries. Page carried seven times for 22 yards.

Finishing the season at 7-2, the Bronchos appear in an excellent position to make the playoffs and face some real competition. The Bronchos were ranked tenth in the nation but with three teams ahead of CSU suffering losses, the Bronchos can expect to be ranked at least eighth, and possibly seventh.

But if the competition isn't as tough, drastic measures might be taken. Perhaps Page could take a class in over throwing receivers, or Zeno could practice dropping passes.
