Call for special session 'first step' says Lillard

By Matthew Driskill and Mike Sherman CSU President Bill Lillard said Gov. George Nigh's call for a special session of the state legislature "looked like the first step toward solving the state's money problems." Nigh called for the special session attempt to solve the state's budget woes Monday at a press conference at the State Capitol. Lillard speculated that a sales tax and perhaps a gasoline tax will be implemented to battle the low state accounts. "I think they'll probably increase the sales tax and the gasoline tax," Lillard said. "Then I think they might look into a tax on loophole items, like beer and cigerattes." "Hopefully we can stop the decline in revenue with the passage of some of these measures," Lillard said. "Then we would hope that once the decline is stopped, the money raised by the new taxes would help to increase state funds " Lillard took the lead among educators in calling for help from the governor and the legislature. He led a group of presidents of the regional universities in asking
for a special session last week at a press conference at CSU. State officials had earlier estimated that the short-fall of revenues would mean a 16 percent loss of funds for state agencies and instituitions. Lillard said CSU would lose $5 million. This would threaten evening classes, summer school and as many as 75 full-time faculty members. Lillard has refuted the notion that universities should "tighten their belts." The president has said that CSU is budgeted for the same money in '83-'84 that was earmarked in '82-'83.
McCourry stresses communication
Candidates united on tax issue
By MaryGaye Franklin Staff Reporter Candidates for the student senate officer elections were unamimous in their support for a tax increase to preserve the programs and classes at CSU, but differed in their opinions of what should be done with the funds. With elections being held Wednesday, the candidates had a chance to air their views at a forum on Monday. They later spoke to the student senate giving their opinions on some of the major issues facing them if they are elected. On the issue of budget cuts presidential candidate, Simon Okonjo said if there is a cut in the university budget, he would favor other measures being taken to prevent programs from being cut. "The university says that there will have to be a tax increase in
order to fund education," Okonjo said. "I am in favor of that increase, but if they do not pass a tax increase I would not be opposed to paying more in fees and tuition to keep the current programs such as summer school and evening classes from being cut out." Incumbent president Joe McCourry said that he would like to see a tax increase if it was to be allocated specifically for education. "The legislature has done this in the past they say the money is for one thing and it ends up going for another," McCourry said. "It is very important that we keep that money going directly to public education." "I think cutting out night classes and summer school would be a disaster. They may eliminate programs down the line but I am against them cutting out one

whole part of the curriculum. I can see them possibly cutting out summer school but not summer school and night classes both." Vice presidential candidates Doug Heaney and John Buttry both echoed the views of the presidential candidates in saying that they would be in favor of a tax increase. "We are an educational institution and if we cut summer and night school we would be cutting our own throats, it would be detrimental all around." Buttry said. "I think if cuts have to be made we should look for some extraneous programs that are not really accomplishing a lot." "I think that one way we could save money would be to drop personal health as a requirement," Heaney said. "The last time I took a health course was in junior high. I don't think it is fitting that a university should tell people how to brush their teeth." Each of the candidates agrees that something needs to be done about the parking lots on campus. They were all opposed to a parking fee being charged students unless the money could be earmarked specifically for parking. "I think that if the university is not going to pave the parking lots then they should at least make an
effort to maintain them better," Heaney said. Okonjo proposes that the senate publish a newsletter in order to bridge the communication gap between the senate and the student body. The newsletter would explain what was happening in the senate and how it affected the students. McCourry said he would like to make an arrangement with The Vista to have a permanent senate section in the paper one day per week in an effort to increase communication between the senate and students. Heaney followed along with McCourry's views, "The only way we are going to be able to reach the students is through The Vista," Heaney said. "I would like to see The Vista run spotlight stories about the senators so that the students would know who the senators are," Buttry said. "I would also be in favor of setting up a senate booth in the University Center with a member of the senate there throughout the day. We would make ourselves visible so that people could come up to us and discuss things with us and find out what we are doing. We could establish a rapport along those lines with the students.

Student elections Wednesday By MaryGaye Franklin Staff Reporter Student Senate elections will be held Wednesday in the University Center and the Liberal Arts building for the offices of president, vice president and secretary-treasurer. Joe McCourry and Simon Okonjo are running for the office of president. McCourry is the current student senate president. Doug Heaney and John Buttry are the candiates for vice-president. Helen McNulty is running uncontested for the office of secretary-treasurer. Polling booths will be located in the foyer of the liberal arts auditorium and on the first floor of the university center in the activities corner. The hours will be 8:30 a.m.2:30 p.m. and 5 p.m.-8 p.m.. This will mark the first year that there has been more than one polling place. "In the past the voter turnout has been about 600 but with the addition of a voting place in the LA building we hope to have a turn-out of over 1,000," McCourry said.

Opinion Page Lottery could save the day for state By Matthew Driskill Associate Editor Amid reports that the state could face a revenue shortage of $110 million by the end of the current fiscal year, many legislators are scurrying around trying to come up with different ways to either cut spending or raise taxes to combat the fall in tax collections. Editorial
The state's take in all this business is about 40 percent of the lottery gross with the rest going for prize money and administration. That's not bad considering that lotteries are a billion dollar business these days. Figures from the Public Gaming Research Institute show that lotteries took in about $3 billion in 1981. Many take a dim view of lotteries, citing rigged games and the like. Others are against the games because they are a form of gambling. Granted, one takes a chance when a ticket is bought, but many would rather spend a dollar on a ticket that will help raise state money—so the schools won't suffer, or the roads can be repaired.
One way to raise money without severly cutting into programs such as education and welfare, would be to initiate a lottery. Lotteries are not new to America. They are currently in operation in Washington, Colorado and around 15 other states, including the District of Columbia. And the worry about rigged games The game itself takes many shapes can be overcome, if the law enforcewith each state determining the kind of ment agencies put in charge of the game they want to run.

Birthday minus skydivers, plus wind fails to spoil day By Mike Sherman Editor There were no skydivers on campus Wednesday. Any attempt to make an aerial landing in the quadrangle north of the University Center on that blustery day would have left the brave soul who dared, dangling from the side of Old North or somewhere on Broadway Extension.

The kaliedoscope dancers didn't show either. In fact the cold conditions moved CSU's 92nd birthday gala indoors to the University Center.The Editorial organizers of the event must have acted quickly and decisively when they left their dwelling that morning and saw their breath turn to steam—sorry, skydivers but, the show must go on. And on it went. As usual there wasn't enough cake and hot chocolate to go around, but it didn't matter. The birthday party accomplished something all campus events here strive to do—get everyone involved. Of course not everyone was in the Oklahoma Rodm to hear the Tunesmiths' rendition of the Alma Mater, but commuters, residents, greeks and students from all walks of life attended—most enjoyed it. So what if it wasn't outdoors. The change of venue to a warmer climate made the crowd larger—a perfect public relations technique. The campus needs more events like the birthday party. It needs parties and celebrations which get everyone involved. Fastthinkers those party planners.

1 Bronchos shunned by local electronic media, but why? By Mark Spears Sports Editor Ever notice that the television stations in Oklahoma City only cover two colleges on their sportscasts, Oklahoma and Oklahoma State. You would think that they have never heard of the Central State Bronchos.
NAIA Div. I Poll and they still can't get time on a sportscast. Even after home games, do you ever see CSU highlights? No. You see 10 minutes of OU and OSU no matter if they win or lose. So come on Jerry, Bob and John, cover a winner, cover CSU football.
Editorial This week both OU and OSU lost, dropping their respective records to 6-3 and they each get five minutes of air time and CSU gets zero. Granted CSU had the week off, but this happens every week regardless of how CSU fares (they usually win). Tell me why a team with CSU's record doesn't rate some top-billing or even second billing.

State,local, world news Marcos vows crackdown President Ferdinand Marcos said Sunday he had files on businessmen involved in "economic sabotage" and vowed to take them to court. Marcos said the businessmen were involved in tax evasion, black-marketing of American dollars and smuggling. The warning came three days after Marcos met with Fillipino and foreign businessmen who called for free elections and major government reforms to solve the political and economic crisis that was sparked by the killing of Benigno Aquino, an opposition leader to Marcos. Marcos said the government was losing about $1 billion a year because of certain businesses that sent dollars abroad. Vista photo by Michael Schumacher

Andropov recuperating
against Langston at Wantland Stadium.
Soviet leader Yuri Andropov is recuperating from a serious illness in a hospital outside Moscow, Soviet authorities told Newsweek magazine. The magazines reports in its Nov. 21 issue that Andropov is considered a "lame-duck" leader in Moscow leading many to think that he will not be strong enough to put forth his ideas and policies and see them carried out. Two British doctors that spoke with the Associated Press said they had strong indications the Soviet leader was suffering from a kidney ailment while others have said Andropov had his gallbladder removed. Andropov has not been seen in public since Aug. 18 with speculation about his health increasing after he missed the Revolution Day parade Nov. 7 which marks the anniversary of the Bolshevik Revolution and is the most important Soviet celebration.
Blankenship speaks to faculty
Regent backs tax increase By MaryGaye Franklin Staff Reporter Linda Blankenship, member of the Board of Regents for Oklahoma Colleges, urged CSU faculty senate members to contact their legislators and support a tax increase in Oklahoma in a speech
before the faculty senate Thursday. "I would like for faculty senate members to consider contacting their legislators and support the issue of tax increases any way they can," Blankenship said. Blankenship spoke to the senate at their monthly session. Her
Navy planes lost at sea The Pentagon reported Sunday that two F-14 fighter planes and and two crew members were lost at sea in the Mediterranean last week. Officials said the planes were not victims of combat or the target of hostile fire.
"However, when we are looking at trimming budgets at universities, we give the utmost priority to the programs being offered and to faculty. Because, without faculty and students, why have a university? There are other areas that can be trimmed without affecting the quality of education the state has had in the past," she said.
Heavy rains hit coast Heavy rains and high winds roared through California Sunday raising the death toll to 11 in traffic and boating accidents that have plagued western states and the coast the last four days. Searching continued Sunday off Monterey, Calif., for missing boaters. A capsized trimaran was found Thursday with one victim aboard. One woman was missing from the boat. In the San Francisco area, searchers continued to look for a 32-foot cabin cruiser with two aboard that failed to return to port Saturday. Meanwhile in Wyoming, high winds were being blamed for several trucking accidents on the highways. The Wyoming highway department closed Interstate-80 for several hours so the overturned rigs could be cleared away. In the east, New York got its first real taste of winter after a storm passed through the state dropping temperatures below 10 degrees in the northern part of the state.
Missle workers accused Workers at an Arizona missle plant have been accused of building black-market cable television receivers and jewelry from gold and silver designed for use on weapons while on government time. The accusations came in a story by the Arizona Daily Star in its Sunday edition. The newspaper quoted sources as saying the pilferage was costing taxpayers up to $10,000 a day and is under investigation by the police and the FBI. A spokesman for Hughs Aircraft, the company charged with manufacturing the missles, said he was not aware of any investigations, but added there was a minor incident two years ago that involved the cable receivers. Several employees told the newspaper that a missle assembly line was shut down twice for several hours so the TV receivers could be made.
main topic was the possible budget cuts that threaten the educational system in Oklahoma and how the Board of Regents will try to handle the cuts in funding for the universities. "One concern that I have been hearing students, faculty and citizens voicing, is about the trememdous cut in funds for education. That of course is everyone's concern," Blankenship said. "The cuts will effect some people more directly than others, but ultimately it will affect everybody if it affects the quality of education and affects jobs.

Blankenship went on to say the state needs to generate more revenue. She pointed out the even though enrollment in the universities is on the rise, generating more student fees, she said that student fees only cover about 20 percent of the costs to operate the university. Therefore, other sources of revenue are needed. "I feel it is reasonably certain that a special session of the legislature will be called, mostly because of the timing involved," Blankenship said. "The timing at this point is most important because once anything is signed by

"If we have a one percent sales tax increase this will give schools some relief for this fiscal year and next. But just enough to keep us afloat, it won't give us any additional income, but it will keep us from being cut quite so sharply," Blankenship said.

Promotion process to be discussed By MaryGaye Franklin Staff Reporter The academic affairs counsel is making an effort to decentralize the faculty evaluation process for promotion and merit pay and give the responsibility to the individual schools, according to James Perry, vice president of academic affairs. In the past, evaluation was done by a central committee made up of faculty and administration from all the schools. Dr. Albert Lynd, chairman of the academic affairs counsel, appointed a committee Thursday, to draw up university-wide guidelines for promotion and merit pay selections. "What we are trying to do is insure that there are some common elements across the university," Lynd said. "From this broad framework, the individual school faculties and department deans from within those schools can build specific evaluation criteria that would reflect the unique needs of the faculty and the school." Committee members are: Dr. J.D. Mullins, dean, school of education; Dr. Glenda Owens, professor of math and computer science; Dr. Lucille Patton, dean, school of special arts and sciences; and Dr. Donald Fleming, associate professor, finance. "For a number of years now it has been my impression that the deans and faculty have been somewhat frustrated by the system that we have used for evaluating and recommending people for promotion and merit pay," Perry said. Merit pay is awarded to faculty members who have done something particularly outstanding in their discipline.Their accomplishment is recognized by the university in the form of a $1,000 increase in salary for the period of one year. According to Perry, "Many deans and faculty have wanted to have responsibility and accountability for promoting people shifted to the
school level. The reason for this is when a vacancy exists within a school, who knows better than the faculty in that school who would be best for that position?" "You cannot judge faculty in one dicipline by exactly the same standards as another discipline. The standards for judging faculty in physics, for example, may be quite different from those in humanities," Dr. Lynd said. "What we are trying to work towards is a system where the academc affairs office would indicate that an opening at a given professorial level existed within a school," said Perry. "That school would then be charged with the responsibility to get the candidates they have for that position, review them and make the appropriate recommendation from their people to fill the vacancy. Recommendations first go to the academic affairs office and then to President Lillard for final approval. "Assuming that the schools conduct their selections in a fair and equitible manner they would have every right to expect that the recommendation they make would be approved by the academic affairs office and President Lillard," Perry said. "There is no ideal soluition to the problem of promotion to full professor," said Frank Finney, dean of the school of liberal arts. "The problem is that we have too many full professors at CSU. Therefore, there are not many vacancies for that position. I think the change to decentralized selection for promotion makes lot of sense and will be an improvement over the present system." "A decentralized approach will put more pressure on the people who are making the selection of candidates. In the past they have been able to hide behind the committee and half the time people didn't know who the committee was made up of. With the responsibility in the schools the people making the decisions will be right out in the open," said McBride.

Bronchos look to Zeno in the clutch By Mark Spears Sports Editor For those people who are familiar with today's music, one may have heard a new song by a group called "The Fixx". The name of that song is "Saved by Zero". Well, the CSU band should start composing a song and title it, "Saved by Zeno". Zeno would be none other than
Broncho wide receiver Daric Zeno. Why the song? Mainly because in the last two years when Zeno has been called upon to make a clutch catch, he generally comes through. Zeno, along with Willie Henderson, Tim Stone and Ray Griffin were the first to come to CSU from Dallas South Oak Cliff (SOC) High Scool. How heavily was Zeno

recruited? "Not very because of my size," said Zeno. "I was 5' 7" and 145 pounds. A lot of them (recruiters) wanted me to go to a junior college. I wanted to go to a four year school and that was Central State." With Zeno being one of the first to come to CSU from SOC one might imagine that he had some influence in bringing the other eight players to CSU.
"I had a lot to do with it," said Zeno. "All of us home boys had been together since the ninth grade. We all love and look out for each other. I guess thats why we are so close." When Zeno got to CSU he found the system to be much like it was in high school, run first and pass as a last resort. But, at the beginning of last year all that changed as CSU offensive coordinator John McGivern decided to go to the air more. "I knew it would actually change because, we had some quality receivers and quality backs," said Zeno. "Everybody began keying on the run and we were dying by the run, so we had to live by the pass." When the offense started going to Zeno and receiving-mate Henderson the ball began to roll for the Bronchos. They won nine of their last 10 games in route to the Bronchos first national championship in 20 years. Zeno led the way last year with 49 receptions for 1038 yards. Both of those statistics set school records and earned him NAIA first team All-America status. "I was just waiting for my chance to show him (Coach Howard) that me and Willie were two quality receivers. We were dying by the run so, we had to pass," said Zeno. After the electrifying stats of a year ago, most people would look at this year (18 receptions and 300 yards) and call it an off year for Zeno and maybe even a bit of a disapointment. But, with the addition of Joe Hayes and a healthy Bruce Vann, the Bronchos have run the ball considerably more than they have passed it. Also, Zeno suffered a twisted knee and had to sit out two games. "This year I got hurt in the second game, but I didn't lose my confidence," said Zeno. "You also have to mention Joe Hayes. He and Bruce have really balanced it out." "I wouldn't say I'm disappointed because I'm a team player. I'll have another good

game. My time will come," commented Zeno. Most football fans dream about meeting professional football players long enough to get autographs and be able to tell their freinds they met a real pro player. Zeno had the opportunity during the summer of 1981 to work with All-Pro, wide receiver John Jefferson of the Green Bay Packers. "I met him through a freind of mine that was real close to him and we all three worked out together," said Zeno. "He's a very unique guy. He showed me some tips on reading coverages and concentration, by catching passes with a patch over one eye." With the skills Zeno possesses, he should have a good chance to play pro football in either the United States Football League or the National Football League despite his size. "I think I can. Mainly I'm confident that I can, with God's will. It's not just the size of the player, it's the heart. You can't ever take the heart out of a player," said Zeno. Zeno plans to graduate in the spring. What if he doesn't make it as a pro? "I wouldn't be dissapointed because I would have something to fall back on. Every since I was a little boy it has been a dream. When you are doing something that you like, that's easy money," said Zeno. One of the things that makes Zeno stand out is his personality. He is a nice person who would help anybody out and one of the reasons for this is his faith and belief in God. "He's (God) a main source in my life. Without God, this year and last year, nothing would have been as prosperous," Zeno said. Everyone in athletics is always talking about a players ability and Zeno definitely has plenty of ability. He gets double teamed more often than not. "I see a lot of double coverages because they are mainly trying to stop the pass. I guess that's why we see some crazy defenses, eight man rush, nine man rush. We have seen every defense that I have ever seen in my life," Zeno said. "I like man-on-man coverage, because it seems like it's just me and him. I'm confident in a manon-man." When Zeno goes out onto the field each Saturday, that confidence shows through. He seems to know that he can beat every defender he faces and he usually does. So let's think about writing that song, "Saved by Zeno".

Bronchos waste Lions 48-7 By Mike Sherman Editor
Randy Page broke the school record for total offense. Bruce Vann dashed for 131 yards on only six carries. Joe Hayes broke the 1,000 yard barrier for the season and the Broncho offense rolled over the Langston defense for 337 yards in total offense. Then the second half started. That's right, the Bronchos did all this and more in the first half of their 48-7 trampling of Langston Saturday before a Wantland Stadium crowd of 2,000. But the second half wasn't so pretty. The Bronchos got carried away with penalties and just didn't execute well, turning the second-half
into a sleeper, but the defense held up their end of the bargain and stifled Langston allowing only 85 yards in rushing for the contest. In defeating the Lions, who finished the season at 4-6, CSU solidified its No. 1 NAIA ranking with only one contest remaining before the playoffs. It would appear only an act of God or a world war could keep the defending champions out of post-season play, which begins Dec. 3. Page had another stellar performance completing 13 of 25 passes for 220 yards and three touchdowns. The senior signalcaller's 221 yards in the game placed the all-time mark for total offense at 4,470 yards. Steve Tate, who played tailback between
1977-80, held the record with 4,360 yards. The win marked another record for the Bronchos, now 8-0. It was the 15th straight victory over seasons. The previous mark of 14 was set in 1914-15. Despite two fumbles, by the intermission the Bronchos had a 28-7 cushion, Randy Page had two TD passes and 144 yards through the air, Vann had an 85-yard touchdown run, but he sat out the second half with what was thought to be a broken hand. X-rays revealed it to be only a bruise and he will play next week against Eastern New Mexico in Portales. As if anyone doubted it, the Broncho offense looked like they were out to show someone that they were explosive. After taking the opening kick-off out to the CSU 29, Page and Co. went to work. An 18-yard run by Hayes and a pass interference call gave the Bronchos the ball at the Langston 39. Page, who had protection rivaled only by that of the president's secret service, then looped a TD strike to Daric Zeno who had beaten the Langston defender down the right sideline. Just to keep potential play-off foes leery of another weapon, the Bronchs decided they would take
the Lions by land on their second possesion. Vann did it and did it breaking two tackles and prancing the rest of the way to his 85-yard TD. Later in the quarter, Page called Vann's number again as the senior running back from Putnam City made an exceptional onehanded grab to complete a 15-yard scoring play. Kicker Dwain Banks' extra point made it 21-0. Vann scored again from five yards out to increase the CSU lead to 28-0. The Lions got their only score of the game with 3:36 left in the half on quarterback Juan Johnson's five-yard keeper. Johnson's score followed a seven play, 70 yard drive. When the `Chos answered the bell for the second half they looked like a different team. Offensive coordinator John McGivern's assesment that his troops' execution was "ragged" was perhaps a tad too polite. The Bronchos were penalized seven times for 94 yards and coughed up the pigskin for the third time of the game. The absence of Vann and Hayes, who watched from the sidelines with a swollen knee, cast reserves Michael Cowart and Ken Whetstone into the line-up. Cowart seemed unable to get untracked and the offense sputtered,
yet the Bronchos punched the ball in the end zone three more times. Whetstone scored on an 12-yard run and Zeno got his second TD of the contest on a 21-yard pass from Page late in the third. Banks, subbing for Page at quarterback, got the final score on a two-yard sneak. Even with the three second-half scores, it was perhaps the sloppiest half of the season for the Bronchos—which should give observers what kind of year they are having. While the offensive unit spent more than their share of the time walking backwards following penalties, the defense dominated Langston. The Lion offense had racked up some impressive stats against other opponents. Langston, some sportswriters proclaimed, would not be the district's dormat this year. Well, the may not be the district's dormat but the Broncho defense certainly left their tracks on the Lions. The locals held Langston to just 12 first downs and 85 yards rushing. Head coach Gary Howard said the defensive play was key to the game. "Langston had won three of their last four games coming into the game and they had been scoring a lot of points. But we contained them well," said Howard.
