Nation's worst roads in Penn., Okla. ranked 9th
By Roy Howe Staff Writer
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Pennsylvania is again the worst state to drive in, according to truckers responding to a survey criticized by state officials as unscientific. Truck drivers responding to a survey by Overdrive magazine rated the Keystone State's roads the worst, in the nation for the third straight year. "It beats you to death. It just beats you to death," trucker Charles Fagaly told T h e Philadelphia Inquirer about driving on Interstate 81 north of Harrisburg, cited as among the nation's worst roads. Only a fraction of Overdrive's 95,000 readers responded to the magazine's survey, but the results were telling. This year, 2,805 complaints were recorded about Pennsylvania roads, more than double the 1,273 for second-place New York. Rounding out the top 10 states to receive complaints, in order, were Illinois, California, Louisiana, Arkansas, Ne w Jersey, Ohio, Oklahoma and Io \Va.
Man's 'best friend' assists in robbery FLORENCE, S.C. (AP) — Police are looking for an armed robber and his accomplice. The robber is said to be medium height with shoulder-length brown hair. The accomplice — gray with black spots. Police said a man held up a shoe store while his dog guarded the door. "The dog sat at the front door, barking at people as they came to the door," Lt. Ray Cannady said. The clerk told investigators a man came into the store Friday and asked for size 13 cowboy boots. The employee went into the back room to look for the boots. When she returned, the man pointed a pistol at her and demanded the money frOm the cash register, Cannady said. The amount stolen was not disclosed. YSee WORLD WRAP, Page 8

Equity between the men's and women's sports programs at the University of Central Oklahoma is the focus of a federal civil rights investigation. A report from the Department of Education, scheduled for release Nov. 19, is to outline any violations between the distribution of funds, facilities, travel and support services among the men's and women's programs. The only institution being examined in the state, high school or higher learning, UCO was either randomly selected for the investigation or named because of cornplaints. Nationwide, 54 colleges and universities are being probed to see if they are in compliance with a 1972 act of Congress, Title IX. To comply with Title IX, public and private schools from the elementary to the post-graduate level were given until 1978 to make all programs—from admissions to housing to sports teams—equally available to men and women. For athletic departments to comply they must show a balance in participation and funding for male and female athletes. They must also show a history of increasing opportunities for female athletes along with an accommodation of the interests and abilities of their athletes. Reports indicate that an Office of Civil Rights team visited the UCO campus last April to interview administrators and faculty associated with the sports programs. During their October on-site visit to the campus, a North Central accreditation team found an unbalanced sports program at UCO. According to their report, "There appears to be a disproportionate funding between the men and women athletic programs in addition to the fewer opportunities available to the female student population." Sports exclusive to men at UCO include baseball, football, golf and wrestling. Sports offered exclusively for women include softball and volleyball. Both sexes are offered basketball, tennis and track.

Revealing names of accused dangerous before conviction
pia?
T
he issue of date rape is a topic that seems to personify the credibility of a woman's word and the accountability of a man's actions. It is making the complicated task of resolving the ultimate he- said, she-said crime more difficult than ever. The public back-lash against women who accuse men of rape is a symptom of a failing in the judicial system and in the way the media covers a crime, especially the crime of rape. In England this issue has come under public scrutiny causing Britain's senior judge, Lord Chief Justice Taylor, to come out in favor of not releasing, the names of men accused of rape unless and until they have been convicted. The case arose after a date rape incident where a 21-year-old university student was charged with raping a fellow undergraduate at King's College, London after a drunken Christmas party last year. The woman said she could not remember much about what happened, but insisted she had not given her consent. The woman wanted the matter settled by the college's disciplinary authorities, but the man insisted on notifying the police and proceeding with a trial where he was later acquitted. Newspaper editorials and public opinion in England were highly critical of the woman in the case because her name was not revealed in news stories about the case, but the man's name was. In current journalistic practice, revealing the name of a person accused of a crime is acceptable because police reports are considered open records. Restricting the freedom of the press is a dangerous affair. But revealing the name of the accused before a conviction an equally dangerous thing. When the name of the accused is plastered on every front page and is in every news broadcast, the likelihood of a completely fair trial is jeopardized because it costs nothing to falsely accuse someone of a crime. And if the accused is acquitted or the charges later dropped, that news usually nevermakes it to the front pages. It serves no pupose to damage someone's reputation by publicizing his or her name before any charges have been proven. The reason given by news organizations is usually that if your organization doesn' t reveal the name, another organization will. It is time for news organizations to take a stand and do what is right and not care what other news Organizations may do. In this area, it is time for a new tradition of fair minded reporting practices where the facts can be related without the extra emotional and political baggage of an unequal practice of revealing the identities of the accused and the accuser.

Cartoon insults men, women, reader says
I
am writing to you concern ing a recent cartoon published in The Vista. I found it very insulting both to men and women. You have no right to even publish such a crude cartoon. It's people like you and their sick jokes that make victims afraid to come forward, thus allowing criminals to run free and commit the crime again. This subject should never be placed in the context that you have put it. There is nothing funny about being raped. Being raped is as serious as incest, spousal/child abuse, and chronic verbal abuse. You should never find these subjects in a cartoon. The damage caused by such a barbaric action is irreversible. I cannot believe how insensitive you
are about this subject. Did you not think about the reaction you would get from this? Look at any woman in your life, whether she be a relative or a friend. Now consider both date rape and rape. Do you think your sister, girlfriend, or even mother would find your cartoon funny if they were victimized by a friend, an acquaintance, or a total stranger? I feel you had no consideration for anyone when you created this cartoon. It's not fair the way you depicted the male or female in the cartoon—the male as "innocent," and the female as "hysterical." Statistics show that nine out of 10 women never report this type of crime. Those nine live with the
guilt of what happened, blaming themselves for someone else's actions. Most of these women will need counseling and there is even a chance that such guilt can ruin a person's chance for a monogamous relationship. When a woman says "No," or "S top," she means it. Being violated is an experience one never forgets. A victim lives with and is haunted by the memories forever. They may never trust a person again after such a violation. I hope you are man enough to apologize and retract the cartoon. If not, I feel sorry for the people (women) in your life because you have no compassion.. —Jennifer Yeargain

Cartoonist defends work, forces people to think about issues
I
n response to The Vista readers: The cartoon published in the Nov. 4 issue of The Vista has received several letters, most of which other readers will not see because they had no names on them. It is in response to these letters that I write. These letters state that date rape is no laughing matter, and with them I readily agree. Rape, whether it be in the dating situation or any place, is never humorous. My comment; however, was not aimed at date rape, it was aimed at the emergence of a new "Sexual Correctness." It is this new "policy" of sexuality that makes both men and women victims. Sexual situations have never
been concrete. In a moment of passion few things rarely are. Now different administrative agencies have tried to place regulations on men and women's relations, sexual or otherwise. These regulations communicate that women arc weak and must be protected from men. Women cannot take care of themselves so we must make regulations to protect them. In reality these new regulations are only excuses for one simple fact: Human beings have problems with self control. "Against her will is against the law," state posters all over campus. It is this broad and general statement my cartoon was aimed. If against her will is against the
law, then if a guy asks a girl to go out with him and she does not want to, does she get to yell, "Date Rape?" Of course not. That is ridiculous. The point of any political cartoon is to get the reader to think. I want you to take a look at the future and see where some of these laws are taking us. It could be just as ridiculous as my cartoon. If you are offended by my cartoons, good. When you take offense you are forced to deal with the topic. I want you to think about what is going on around you instead of accepting everything fed to you. —C.S. Jennings

Professor practices what she teaches By Kim Whish Student Writer
Much like the lion, the tin-man and the scarecrow in the movie classic The Wizard of Oz, courage, heart and brains are the words that describe Jacqoline Johnson, new nursing instructor at the University of Central Oklahoma. "It takes a dedicated and goaloriented person to make a good nurse," she says as her eyebrows raise slightly. She is small in stature and her short stylish hair is tawny brown. She sits comfortably in her chair greeting fellow faculty members who pop in and out of the room. "Sometimes it's hard," she explains, her rich brown eyes beginnin g to turn glossy. "I had an elderly patient who was dying and had no family to support her. I wanted so much to go in and sit with her, but I was so busy. I feel that she died all alone. When I die, I want to be surrounded by my family." In 1992, Johnson began her career at UCO teaching classes in gerontology. Johnson received her Bachelor of Science and Nursing at Baylor University in 1981, where she maintained a 4.0 grade point average. She returned to her hometown of Edmond and received her masters in adult gerontology at UCO. "I really enjoy teaching, it's a lot of fun," she said as a smile broadened across her delicate face. "I hope I can give to the field of nursing by helping students
achieve their educational goals." Johnson shakes her head as her eyes gaze down upon her small feet. "Other students just don't realize what a nursing student goes through. They put in so much time. For every three hours of work, a student earns one credit hour and they are dealing with life and death situations. They are dealing with reality," she says. Although she first dreamed of becoming a doctor, she said she is happy in her field. "I've definitely found my niche. Gerontology is what I like best." When she is not busy teaching at UCO, Johnson works part-time at Deaconess Hospital where she takes care of many Alzheimer's patients. "Sometimes you'll see a little bit of light from this type of patient," she said. She took care of a man who was in the latter stages of Alzheimer's. "I was taking him down stairs for some lab tests. While waiting for the elevator, he turned to me and said, 'This is awful stuff. — "It is rare when patients are aware of what is really going on," Johnson said. Although Johnson's career is challenging, she has a lot of support at home. She explained that her husband, who is a geologist, serves as "Mr. Mom" by taking care of their two children while

she is away. As for the future of nursing, Johnson said she thinks the nurse will become more autonomous and nurses will be out in the community taking care of people. "We're going to see a lot more nurses with advanced degrees," she said. "We will go away from physicians and have more nurse practitioners. A nurse practitioner usually has better communication with the patient than a doctor. Many people feel that the nurse is the person they can really talk to," Johnson said. Although courage, heart, and brains describe JacqolineJohnson, it also describes her students. "Students must be dedicated and goal-oriented. The nursing program is though; you have to take it one day at a time," Johnson said.
The University of Central Oklahoma's Child Study Center is once again holding a reception to show gratitude to the family and parents of the children from 8:30 to 9:30 a.m. and 12:30 to 1:30, p.m. Nov. 11 in the Child Study Center in the Home Economics Building. The Child Study Center is "set up like a preschool" for three and four year-old children of full-time students, faculty, staff and community, said Sue McCauley, child study coordinator in the child development center. The three-year-olds are in the morning session and the four-yearolds are in the afternoon,

McCauley said. "We do this reception each semester to increase communication and involvement with parents and their children," said Dr. Kenneth Elsner, Dean of the College of Education. The reception is being held "to show our appreciation to the parents," said McCauley. This is a way for the family to become involved. The family will be able to come look around the school, she said. "We have a reception every semester...and it's always well attended," said McCauley. "We hope to make the parents feel welcome and very appreciated and to answer questions they might have," she said. For more information, contact Sue McCauley at 341-2980, Ext. 5788.

Eating disorders strike hard on college campuses (Part 1 of 11) By Jennifer Palmer Student Writer "One night I was trying to make a jelly sandwich and I was too weak to open the jelly jar. I just sat on the kitchen floor and cried. I've fainted and fallen down several times and it was my body's way of sending me signals. I was just too stubborn to listen," said Susan Mason, a University of Central Oklahoma freshman and recovering anorexic. She is just one example of the estimated 5 percent to 20 percent of college females and up to 5 percent of college males that suffer from an eating disorder, as reported from the USDA's Nutrition Information Center in 1991. The two most common disorders are anorexia nervosa and bulimia. National Anorexic Aid Society (NAAS) reports described anorexia as a "self-induced starvation syndrome." The word bulimia is translated from Greek meaning "ox hunger" and the disorder is characterized by binge-eating and purging. Both disorders are characterized by a fear, hatred and preoccupation of food, the NAAS also reported. Mason said that "Lots of things led to my hatred of food. I think that it was mainly the thought that if I could be perfect at everything and in every way, that I would not have any problems. "I also noticed that obesity runs in my family, and coming from a highly dysfunctional family, I didn't want any of the same things to re-occur later when I have my own family," she said.
Mason said she believed if she didn't look like her family, she would not behave the same as they did. She said her restricting her diet allowed her to "stop" the behavior that she didn't want within herself. The NAAS reports that basic traits for anorexia and bulimia stem from a "family message" to achieve and excel in the world, often setting up "rules for the road" that are unattainable. Often, however, if goals are obtained in this

situation, the family seems to be dissatisfied or does not accept the successes, like it "is not good enough." "I never even dreamed that this would be me. I never looked like I even had aproblem, " said Robyn, an OCU sophomore (who wished to withhold her last name for professional and personal reasons) and a recovering bulimic, "I've binged and purged off and on since I was a freshman in high school. That was six years ago. And I've never even been really overweight. But it's not about weight. It's about my ability to escape, my ability to cope and food turned into an addiction for me." There is increasing evidence that bulimia and anorexia are an inherited trait related to compulsive or obsessive behavior. During her process of learning to use food as an escape, Robyn said," I remember that eating experiences when I was growing up were often negative. Our most explosive family arguments oc-

curred when we were at the dinner table. They occurred at, or on the way to, family dinners, Or when we ate out. I mean it seems like it happened every time our family was together, which was always dinnertime, and I transferred my emotions from my family dysfunction to food." According to Lefever and Shafe, "Closing one outlet- for example, to stop drinking alcohol-may open another outlet- such as nicotine." For a bulimic, the "drugs" are sugar, white flour, and other refined sugars, they said. These substances create a reaction in the body similar to that of alcohol. Robyn found that when she went into counseling about two months ago and started to modify her diet to cut sugars and carbohydrate, other problems surfaced. "I began to crave alcohol. I realized I still needed to fill the `void,' or, my craving. I was drinking a whole lot, which was causing even more depression and fear. But then I asked myself, 'What is beer?' It's pure sugar and carbs. It was the same as bingeing on foods. "My family disposition, genetics and my brain chemistry give me a strong disposition to alcohol abuse. I've never had a problem with alcohol before, but now I have to fight with this, too," Robyn said.
With food disorders, also, it is sometimes very difficult for fwnily and friends to cope, even if they notice and encourage treatment. Dr. Estelle Goldstein, M.D., specialist in eating disorders and founder of the "Healthy Eating and Living Center" in Oklahoma City pressed her opinion that the "cornerstone" of treatment is to get in touch with the individual, and to do that by "finding equilibrium in the family, and adjusting appetite and happiness with the person." Robyn said that her hardest step was to try to reach out to her family, but she felt that it was ultimately her own illness to deal with. "My mother is what I would call `addiction-phobic,' and I have always felt anything enjoyable must
inherently be bad, including success. If there is a bad problem, she would always say 'deal with it, move on.' Well, in order to 'deal with it,' most everything ended up just getting buried and I realized that we had learned just to ignore problems," said Robyn. She said she knew nobody could "fix" her problems but herself, no matter who she wanted to blame for the disorder. She said she still feels alone sometimes, and she has learned to share her feelings more with her close friends. As almost all sources agree, what helps a person the most is first and foremost the use of treatment, and the establishment of a close support group to share similar problems between and establish self-esteem.

UCO International Office announces Ambassador Scholarship winner By Jojo Takyi-Micah Student Writer The winners of the University of Central Oklahoma Ambassador Scholarships, which pays the general fee portion of the receiver's enrollment, was announced by the International Office Friday. Four students were chosen to receive the scholarships for the Fall 1993 semester. Adid Khawaja, a junior finance major from Pakistan was awarded $615.57. Fei Ling Yeh, a freshman pre-med. student from Taiwan won $605.85. Two graduate students Heng Hong Lee from
Singapore and Ru Jun Ruan from Chinawere awarded $486.36 each. The Ambassador Scholarship is a university scholarship and "is awarded to International students who show outstanding achievement in the area of academic and campus activity" said Jalal Daneshfar, campus communities activities coordinator in the International Office. The scholarship is available every semester to international students with current immigration visas. Twenty-two students applied this fall and the winners were chosen on the basis of their grade point average, letters of recom-
mendation, essays on their educational goals in the U.S. and campus and community activities, Daneshfar said. To qualify for the scholarship, an applicant must have a cumulative G.P.A. of 3.25 for undergraduates and 3.50 for graduates, be a full time student, and have active membership in at least two campus clubs. The aim of the award is to reward the student who maintains good academic work and encourage more involvement in campus activities. We seek a "student with a good balance of academic and campus activity" Daneshfar said.
Tokens of Taos' to show through Nov. 16 By Joy McNutt Staff Writer "Tokens of Taos," the first exhibition of the Donna Nigh Gallery located on the fourth floor of the University Center, is showing 9-5 p.m. Nov. 8-16. Also, a public reception with the 21 participating photographers will be held from 4-6 p.m. Nov. 12. The gallery exhibit consists of photos taken on last month's Photography Club trip to Santa Fe and Taos, N.M., organized by Dr. Haskell 0. "Woody" Gaddis, Jr., professor of journalism at the
University of Central Oklahoma. Gaddis, who has more than 38 years of experience in professional photography, has been teaching at UCO for 25 years. He said his goal is to finish his teachin g career helping students produce "footprints in the sands of time." Exhibit participant Mark Zimmerman said "I'm pleased with my work. Each image has its own story of the New Mexico trip, and I hope I can return very very soon." "New Mexico has a sense of calmness, purity and simplicity about it," said participant Jeff Glass.
"The designs and landscapes of New Mexico are inspiring to an artist of any style," said participant Denise Wynia. "I was captivated by the shape, form and aesthetic qualities of the Northern New Mexico landscape," said B ea Gaddis, wife of "Woody" Gaddis. "The light was incredible. I photographed these tranquil scenes with feelings of emotion. I want to share my experience with the viewer." Participant Clayton B. Rogers said "In these pieces I tried to show the beauty of nature in harmony with the beauty of man's inventions."
Nominations for AAUP award being accepted By Jojo Takyi-Micah Student Writer Nominations for the American Association of University Professors Distinguished Scholar award are now being accepted for 1994, a release from the Selection Committee said. The nomination will be presented on the basis of "contributions to the intellectual life of the University" the release said. "To be selected will be a real honor. It means your peers have selected you on the basis of you accomplishments in the area of your research," said Dr. Valerie Knotts, chairman of the Selection Committee. Any full time University of Central Oklahoma faculty member is eligible for consideration. All types of scholarly activity will be considered. The selected Distinguished Scholar will be expected to present a "Distinguished Scholar Lecture" in the Spring. Dr.B ahaeddin Jassemnej ad,
assistant professor of physics, won last year for his work in the field of laser technology focusing on medicine and fiber optics. "It is really an honor to be recognized by your peers and that is the best honor you can get. We love to teach that is why we become professors", Jassemnej ad said. "Two things turn me on, when you see your student become successful and go on to become something in society, and secondly, that your peers recognize you for your work." A letter of nomination, with the appropriate supporting documents must be submitted to the chairman of the Selection Committee by Wednesday, Dec. 6, 1993. Nominators should note that submitting a nomination without supporting documentation is likely to result in the candidate not receiving this prestigious award. All nominations should be submitted to Dr. Valerie Knotts, Chairman Selection Committee, Box 118, Campus.

Do Not Resuscitate order provokes furor at school board LEWISTON, Maine (AP) — The School Board is engulfed in a furor for agreeing to honor a mother's request that her severely disabled daughter not he resuscitated if she goes into cardiac arrest. Some teachers say that the idea goes a.,zainst their :instincts and that other children could be traumatized if a younizster were allowed to die in front of them. Advocates for the disabled say society should not decide if a child lives or dies. At a School Board hearing NIonday night that dragged on until 3 a.m. today, the girl's mother, Linda Lafrance, said she believes in miracles, but "1 also believe in reality." Her 12-year-old daughter, Corey Brown, is retarded and suffers from spastic cerebral palsy and scoliosis. Doctors say that her condition is deteriorating, making it increasingly difficult for her to breathe, and that the blows and chest compressions of cardiopulmonary resuscitation might only cause her pain and injury. The School Board earlier this year first voted 6-2 to ignore the instructions from Dr. Richard Marsh, Corey's pediatrician. Then — in apparently the first vote of its kind in the nation — the board reversed itself, 6-3, its members saying they were swayed by Marsh's explanation. Medical ethicists in Maine and elsewhere have stressed that such do-not-resuscitate orders do not bar medical treatment, but rather require that unusual measures not be taken to revive patients. Such orders are routine in hospitals in cases involving elderly and severely ill patients. Lafrance consulted three specialists in addition to her daughter's pediatrician before making the request of the School Board. Lafrance said that her (hunter cat communicate With facial expressions and baby-like sounds but that she has not discussed the issue with the girl because she does not have the mental capacity to understand.
American Indian remains to be returned to burial site FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Remains of three American Indians who were unearthed for a dam may finally be returned to the place they were buried 2,000 years ago. Arrow points found with two of the Oklahoma remains indicate possible violence associated with the deaths. After 1978, bones of all three were at the University of North Texas in Denton and since spring with the Wichita tribe in Anadarko, Okla. A handshake agreement was made with the Wichita tribe five years ago to return the remains, University of North Texas archaeologist Reid FelTiI12 said, but "we let it dangle" until the . Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act was passed. That reparation law, approved by Congress in 1990, was passed in response to decades of protests from tribes about storage and display of human remains. The first deadline under the law looms Nov. 16. "It is a good law," Virgil Swift told the Fort Worth StarTelegram. Swift is treasurer of the Wichita tribe, which has overseen transfer of the human remai ns from TJNi archaeologist Reid Feri-ing. "Not just our people but people from all walks of life believe it is a isacred thing when you put someone away, in the ground," Swift Said. "They don't want those things disturbed."

Date rape seminar focuses on self-defense By Janet Runge
Student Writer Rows of chairs stood empty in the Broncho Corral Roam. The minutes on the clock ticked slowly past three-thirty as five people trickled into the date-acquaintance rape seminar. Rob Hall and Dr. Leslie Ribera scanned the room from the table set up at the front of the empty rows. "If there had been a rape on campus last week this room would have been packed wall-to-wall with people," said Hall. "This isn't a therapy session for people who have been raped, this is a prevention workshop. People always think, it's not going to happen to me." The seminar, sponsored by the math club, was presented by Rob Hall and Dr. Leslie Ribera, Monday and Tuesday afternoon. There is one reported rape every five minutes in the country and considering that rape is commonly unreported, it's hard to know the exact statistics on how
many rapes actually occur, Ribera said. "We believe in three tenets of self-defense," said Hall. "I do not have to be a victim, there is nothing I cannot accomplish, and I can defend myself." "Date rape is sometimes a double-victim-rape, "said Hall. "The man doesn't think he committed a rape, the woman does." The problem of a double-victim-rape can sometimes be attributed to the no-yes mentality. Men tend to think that when a woman says no, she really means yes, he said. "The man is put in the position of trying to decide what the woman really wants," said Hall. "Rape may occur because of rationalization on the part of the man, and guilt on the part of the woman," said Hall. "The woman needs to make clear statements, and take strong, unambiguous actions." There is no 100 percent correct answer on what to do if you're faced with a potential rape situation, said Ribera.
"Different strategies include physical and verbal resistance, trickery...the main idea is to get out of there," she said. The clothes that women wear should have nothing to do with whether or not she is raped, but they should be aware that in stiletto heels or a tight skirt they might not be able to run, or kick, Ribera said. The seminar concluded with an half-an-hour hands on demonstration of self-defense techniques. Although we won't demonstrate it, there' sl,vhat I call the GTCar hold. Grab it, Twist it, Crush and Rip, said Hall. One of the people attending the seminar was Paisley Basham, standards chairman for the Alpha Gamma Delta sorority. "I'm here because I wanted to do a program for the girls in the sorority who couldn't attend," she said. Rob Hall is a self-defense instructor and holds a third-degree black belt in tae kwon do. Dr. Ribera holds a first-degree black belt in tae kwon do.

Pope 'feels the pain' of sex scandals involving church
C/9 g)elect /0
VATICAN CITY (AP) — Pope John Paul II on Monday said he felt the pain of sex scandals involving clergymen, and restated the Roman Catholic Church's commitment to celibacy. The pope told bishops from Canada's Atlantic provinces that the sexual scandal has been a source of great suffering for the church in Canada. "I wish you to know that I have personally shared this anguish with you," he said. A report three years ago described child sex abuse by priests, former priests and others connected with the church in Newfoundland. The scandal led to the resignation of Newfoundland's archbishop, Alphonsus Penney, and prompted a lawsuit against the church.

Nigh included in his short speech more praise for and educadon of the master plan. "We are in the middle of a $50 million capital improvement plan here at the university, "said Nigh. "In the next few months you will see so much activity it will make your head swell." Tawni Corwin, president of the President's Club, announced the winner of the organization contest. The organization that had the most people sign up for the tuition
waiver recieved $300. Lori Glass, president of Toastmasters, accepted the award on behalf of her organization.

Nigh closed the event by telling the students that in the next two weeks they would randomly be selecting students to be eligible for a $100 gift certificate. The students must be wearing UCO clothing, though, in order to win the certificate.

UCO runs non-conference streak to 10 Bronchos win again outside of the Lone Star
Central Oklahoma wraps up the 1993 volleyball season this weekend when the Lady Bronchos go to Denton, Tex. to participate in the Lone S tar Conference Tournament. UCO 23-13 overall, finished fifth in the regular-season league standings at 7-7 and will meet fourth-place finisherWest "l'exas A&M (21-11) in Friday's first round at 3 p.m. If UCO wins the match it will face the winner of the Eastern New Me xico-Te x as A& MKingsville on Saturday at 10 a.m. UCO went 0-3 last week, losing to Oral Roberts, East Texas State and Texas Woman's.
By Scott Moore Student Writer "Back to Basics" was the theme for the University of Central Oklahoma as they pounded out a 14-7 victory on the road Saturday over the Antelopes of NebraskaKearney. The Bronchos kept it simple by keeping it on the ground and simply put, the Antelopes couldn't stop the run. The rushing attack, led by Senior Tyrone Jones, amassed 289 yards. Jones, who entered the contest second in the Lone Star Conference in rushing averaging 102.9 yards per game, picked up 145 yards on 28 carries and scored both of UCO's touchdowns. It was his best day rushing since a 167 yard effort against East Texas State Oct. 2. "We didn' t have too many problems running the ball," said Jones. "We just ran our base plays and really didn't do anything else different." The Bronchos gained 347 yards total offense and piled up 21 first downs. The Broncho defense, led by defensive tackle MikeFilson who had 4 tackles for losses, held the UNK offensive attack that was previously averaging 328.6 yards per game to just 190. The Antelopes netted only 40 yards through the air. "I felt that we had dominated the whole game," said Jones. "It was mainly our own mistakes that stopped us and really not what they were doing defensively." The Bronchos took their first two drives of the game and drove inside the UNK five-yard line but both times the Bronchos turned the ball over on downs. Early in the second quarter UNK capitalized on the Broncho's second stalled drive and drove 98 yards to take a 7-0 lead on Mike Yulee's 11-yard run.

Senior quarterback Terry Payne brought the Broncho's right back by tossing a 26-yard scoring strike to Jones to tie the game 7-7 just before intermission. Jones broke the tie in the third quarter on a 6-yard touchdown run to give UCO the lead for good at 14-7. Jones is now just 42 yards shy of his second straight 1,000 yard season and with his performance against the Antelopes, Jones has moved past Eddie Goodlow for sole possession of fifth place on UCO's career rushing chart. Jones has 3,064 yards in his four years as a Broncho.
"That Type of thing reflects on the offense as a whole," said Jones of his rushing feat. "It reflects on the blocking on the offensive line and it reflects on our recievers in the passing game because you have to throw the ball well to be able to run the ball well. I think one compliments the other." The Bronchos up their record to 6-3 overall and are currently 1-3 in the conference. The win extends UCO's mastery over nonconference foes, pushing the streak to 10 games. For the Bronchos, playoff hopes are slim and conference title hopes are non-existant, but if the

Bronchos beat Eastern New Mexico at home Saturday at 1:30 in the season finale, they could finish 7-3 and give UCO it's best mark since 1985.
