Resident diagnosed with TB
Captors may release another U.S. hostage

Student Writer
DAMASCUS, Syria (AP) — Freed U.S. hostage Thomas Sutherland pleaded for the release of Terry Anderson, the longest-held hostage in Lebanon. Sutherland said Anderson, a journalist who covered Lebanon since the early 1980s, was in good health and good spirits. Terry Waite, who was also freed Monday, said one of his captors said he expected Anderson to be freed "by the end of the month." Anderson, 44, was kidnapped in west Beirut on March 16, 1985.
Duke to consider presidential post WASHINGTON (AP) — Former Louisiana gubernatorial candidate, David Duke, is considering a Republican challenge to President Bush next year. Duke said Monday he had authorized supporters to explore the possibility of him entering some GOP presidential primaries. The former Ku Klux Klansman said if he runs, his goal will be to force Bush "to adhere to the principles of the party and stop the drifting to the left that we've had so long."
Ex-convict takes assault rifle to movie TULSA, Okla. (AP)---Police credit an alert theater manager with blocking an ex-convict's plans to watch "Suburban Commando" with a semiautomatic assault rifle, handguns and 302 rounds of ammunition at his side. Carl Pinel Parker, 33, attempted to take arms into the Sunday afternoon movie, starring professional wrestler Hulk Hogan. Parker, convicted in 1980 of assault with intent to kill, remained in the Tulsa jail Monday night on complaints of carrying a concealed weapon and carrying a firearm after a felony conviction.

A Thatcher Hall resident has been diagnosed as having active pulmonary tuberculosis, said Susan LaForge, director of the Student Health Center. "The student, whose name has not been released, has already been treated with medication and is no longer considered contagious," said LaForge. The State Health Department is concerned about the residents in Thatcher Hall and would like to screen them for the disease, LaForge said. TB is an infectious disease which can affect the lungs and is spread from person to person through the air droplets. It is difficult to contract unless the infection is spread to other people who share the same breathing space such as family members, friends, coworkers; and roommates. Oklahoma County Health Department TB Coordinator Mary Spinner met with LaForge to discuss a location for the State Health Department to test the residents. A TB skin test will be administered to Thatcher Hall residents 8 a.m. to 11 a.m., Dec. 2, in Thatcher Hall lobby, said LaForge. The students will have to return 8 a.m. to 11 a.m., Dec. 5, to the same location to have their test results 'read' to them. If any tests show that a student has active TB, the mobile unit from the health department will be on campus to administer a chest xray and diagnostic tests as well, she said. Some common symptoms of TB of the lungs may include long term cough, chest pain and coughing up blood, she said. Some other symptoms of TB may include weakness, feeling sick, weight loss, fever and night sweats, said Spinner. The students will want to know more about the subject, and will want to ask questions about TB, said Carroll Van Duyn, resident housing manager. "Everything is under control, I don't think there will be a big problem," said Van Duyn. "We are going to continue to be honest and precautious about it." V

No opponents but a tough race
W
hile George Bush circles the globe and plans one politically-inspired spectacle after another, the crowd at home is lining up along the route of the 1992 presidential race. So far there are few well-qualified candidates—and that includes Bush. If he plans to win the race a year from now, he ought to look at what the real competition is and to start training. While the Democrats are still searching their ranks for an entry, Bush could begin to tackle some of the issues that plagued him in the 1988 election unemployment, interest rates, a weak banking industry, homelessness, gangs and drugs, and general loss of confidence in the American economy. Those issues are still unresolved and have festered like a sore for the past three years. The pollsters show the economy at the top of the list of threats to Bush's reelection. The denial approach, which Bush tried at last month's new conference, is a lie and no one believes him. There is, indeed a recession and these are hard times. Unemployment is still high and getting worse. The layoffs that previously were limited to blue-collar types are now affecting white-collar, middle managers. The Fed has lowered its interest rate to 4.5 percent, but it can't convince member banks to pass the savings on to its biggest borrowers. Business is at a standstill at best. Voters are concerned that America will not be competitive in the expanding world markets because of the high price of money and, therefore, jobs of all collars will go overseas. And the fears go on and on. More people will join the ranks of the unemployed and the homeless ... and their children will fall behind in school and join gangs .... And that frame of mind is not panic-button thinking; it is well grounded in what is happening in neighborhoods nationwide. One possible reaction by the voters may be a pocketbook backlash and they will vote to give someone else a try. In addition, they have grown increasingly antiincumbent and have enacted term-limit restrictions on some federal and state offices. Bush could pay a lofty price for such sentiment. Bush sounded edgy—almost defensive—recently about his preoccupation with peace in the Middle East. No one questions the merit of a solution to the turmoil in the Arab world, but Bush needs to take care of business in his own back yard. He needs to start running for office. V

Students' plays 'heard' , in 'Voices' production By Pam Thurman
Student Writer
"Oklahoma Voices," a production of excerpts from plays and screenplays written by University of Central Oklahoma students, will be presented at 8 p.m., Friday and Saturday in Pegasus Theater. The collection of scenes will be directed by Jonathan Bolt, UCO artist-in-residence, from the Circle Repertory Theater in New York City. This will be Bolt's third time to direct "Oklahoma Voices," said Dr. Christopher Givan, chairperson of the creative studies department. "This is a chance for the writers to hear their work read by professional actors and to have it shaped and directed by Jonathan Bolt who is a director as well as playwright," Givan said. Bolt said he is pleased to direct the students' works-in-progress. "It's the only chance I get to direct here. It's a lot of work, but it's fun. I have to choose and edit the pieces, sort them, and put them in

some kind of order," Bolt said. "This year there are 25 pieces. Since it's a reading there is minimal staging, but we try to give a flavor of what is happening. I guide the actors along the character's journeys and try to show the writer's work to the best advantage," he said. The actors are all from various local theaters including the Pollard, Bolt said, and some are students from his playwriting and screenwriting classes who also happen to be actors. Givan said in a short two hours the audience will hear views from 25 people with a variety of backgrounds and ages. The student ages range from early 20's to late 70's so there are a wide range of generational perspectives. "The students' works are often extremely original, I'm always surprised how far they are from the cliche," Givan said. "Oklahoma Voices" is open to the public. Admission is free.

Scorcese directs De Niro, Nolte in recently released Cape Fear By Kathy Karr
Staff Writer
Legendary filmmaker Martin Scorcese conjures up a frightening and brutal picture of psychosis and the criminal mind in his latest offering "Cape Fear." Oscar-winner and longtime Scorcese collaborator Robert De Niro (The Godfather II, Taxi Driver) is chilling, seductive and absurdly humorous in his role of Max Cady, an ex-convict who stalks his former attorney after being released from prison. Nick Nolte (48 Hours), portrays Cady's lawyer, Sam Bowden. Bowden, in his defense of Cady 14 years earlier, had suppressed vital evidence that would have kept Cady out of jail. Now the maniacal Cady has returned, casting himself in the role of avenging angel, believing that his stalking and torture of the Bowden family is a method of saving them. De Niro shines with typical manic sensibility, almost making Cady the hero of the film despite his vicious and brutal actions against the Bowdens. The character of Cady is a long, long way from the simple and gentle invalid De Niro portrayed in "Awakenings." When one considers De Niro's character in "Awakenings," and the character of Cady,

the range and scope of De Niro's ability is breathtaking. There are certain to be comparisons between De Niro's portrayal of a psychotic and the performance by Anthony Hopkins in last year's film, "The Silence of the Lambs." But Hopkins portrayal was razor sharp and coldly analytical. In "Cape Fear," De Niro has made behaving as you come from a long line of incestuous breeding, an art form.
Review Nolte also performs above and beyond his usual range. Seeing Nolte in a role he can really grab onto, as opposed to the usual loudmouth buffoon he portrays, is amazing. The man can actually act, and rather well, too. But Scorcese is the behind-thescenes star of this film. The movie is shot in the typical gray and grainy Scorcese-style, but on this outing, Scorcese has given up his
usual urban setting for the more rural region of a small town in North Carolina. Scorcese doesn't skimp on dialogue and delicious, tight scenes. The film isn't at all haphazard, and Scorcese gives us long, long scenes that we get to sink our teeth into. The length of the scenes is not at all boring, and gives every character plenty of time to develop. It appears that both Scorcese and De Niro will have Oscar nominations in their very near future. The film is long, and exhausting to watch, but every minute is fraught with spine-tingling and nail-biting tension. Violence and blood are in abundance, but with Scorcese, what else would you expect? Spend the money if you have a strong stomach, and for God's sake don't take the children. The thrill Scorcese provides is more than worth the average ticket price, and De Niro's cold eyes will haunt your dreams for a very long time. V •

Former stud ent presides over Sci-Fi convention By Pam Thurman
Student Writer Award-winning author and former University of Central Oklahoma artist-in-residence Mike McQuay will serve as toastmaster for SoonerCon 7, a local science fiction/fantasy convention, Nov. 22-24 at the Central Plaza Hotel. McQuay won the Philip K. Dick Award in 1987 for his science fiction book "Memories." His latest book, "Puppetmaster," a political thriller set in Washington, D.C., was released in October. Proceeds from the convention will be donated to The Winds, a non-profit residence for people with AIDS. SoonerCon is sponsored by STAR OKC, the state's largest science fiction fan club, which began in 1973 as a "Star Trek" Fan Club, said Larry Nemecek, a longtime member of the organization. Leonard Bishop, a SoonerCon 7 committee member, said every couple of years a committee is formed to review requests from local non-profit organizations for help. Passageways, the YWCA's shelter for battered women, and the Pediatric Cancer Society are two of the organizations that have profited from past conventions. "People who attend science fiction conventions do it just for the love of doing it. They aren't interested in money," McQuay said.
Dee Porter, director of the AIDS Support Program through which donations for the Winds are handled, said she is pleased to be involved with SoonerCon 7. "We couldn't do all that we do without donations. We offer the residents private rooms, meals and transportation to medical appointments; all the things they could not afford without assistance," Porter said. Events will include guest panel discussions, artist demonstrations, readings and critiques by authors, and "filksinging," the singing of folksong parodies with a science fiction theme, Nemecek said. He also said there will be three around-the-clock video rooms that deal with different genres; animation, films, and alternate television. There will also be 24-hour game rooms wher live role-play tournaments and and games will take place. The second annual World Peace Through Chocolate buffet will be Friday evening and Saturday night there will be a Grand Masquerade Dance. "SonnerCon has something for everyone. Science Fiction fans are a real eclectic group with overlapping interests," Nemecek said. The cost for the three-day convention is $20 at the door. Registration begins on noon, Friday at the Central Plaza Hotel, located at 1-40 and Eastern. For more information, call 769-4417 or 737-7051. V

Dr. Larry Mullins, a new psychology professor at the University of Central Oklahoma has a passion: to teach. His twelve-page resume boasts expertise in various areas of psychology. He has served as a staff member or as a consultant at several Oklahoma City metro hospitals and institutes, and he has received several academic and professional honors. "Regardless of such an impressive work history," Mullins said, with a twinkle in his pale blue eyes, "I would rather spend time with students than work anywhere else." "I want to stimulate students to think in creative ways and to think critically about human behavior. I want students to walk away from my classes appreciating the complexities of people and appreciating the complexities of the world they live in." Mullins virtually grew up on the UCO campus. His father, Dr. Dale Mullins, was dean of the College of Education from 1971 until 1987. The elder Mullins is now retired and his son is excited to be a part of the department his father headed for so many years. It was his father's teaching career that took Mullins and his family to East Africa in 1968. They lived in Tanzania and had the opportunity to travel through Tanzania, Uganda, Kenya and Ethiopia.

Brothers 'climb' to success By Penny Owen
Staff Writer Two brothers emerged from the decade of greed; one with a bachelors degree in finance, the other with a bachelors in marketing. Their next move was not to Wall Street however, nor was it with Hunt-Wesson Foods. Instead it was to a refurbished racquetball court on the North end of Oklahoma City. Andrew and William Hunzicker got the idea of opening up the Summit Rock Gym after spending a few years hoisting themselves across slopes in both the United States and Europe for fun and competition. About a year ago they spotted a trend in indoor climbing and set out to carve out a chunk of what they consider to be a lucrative market. "They're popping up everywhere," said William Hunzicker. "It's just a fun way to work out. What we call it is sport climbing." Three years ago, only one indoor rock-climbing gym existed. Ast summer the number climbed to 50 and today that number has doubled. In August, after the brothers rented a racquetball court in the downstairs far corner of the Santa Fe Club at N.W. 63rd and Santa Fe, they spent the next month tex-
turing the 30-foot walls, installing metal protrusions for hand and foot holds, and printing brochures to lure in anybody seeking a thrill and a workout. Besides the fact that Andrew's wife is from Oklahoma City, the Hunzickers chose this site because there is no regional competitor for indoor rock-climbing. But this facility, which opened its doors in September, has 4,000 square feet of prime scaling territory, including angled sections and climbing levels that range from beginners to advanced. No experience is necessary because rock climbing instruction is available, for a price. The admission fee, however, includes a basic run-through on rock-climbing techniques and takes about a half an hour. Before scaling begins, a climber must know how to 'belay,' which is controlling the rope connected to the climber, and how to tie the right knots. "People have to pass a test before they climb," said William Hunzicker. "They don't just walk in and pay." Some do, however, if they're savvy enough with the ascent. Brian Jung said he has chosen the rock gym over a Friday night on the town many times. "I've done skateboarding, bicycling, but about three years ago a
friend of mine introduced me to rock climbing," said Jung. "I fell in love." Jung, clad in spandex and special rock-climbing shoes, tests himself out on a 5.10 climb, which means ascending on hand and foot holds about the size of a nail head. In the wake of his climb is a mist of sand that sprinkles any onlookers. Jung makes it look easy, but watching his counterpart, Kevin McCarthy, make several false starts at the same level, reveals the expertise required. Left behind is a bit of blood on the wall and some frustration, but McCarthy takes another stab at it and, this time, succeeds. On hand to belay is Jung, who hollers encouragement and instructions as McCarthy meticulously clambers upward. Hunzicker yells that he may have loosened some of the hand holds, so they may spin around when he steps on them. But, of course, he's kidding. Because all climbers are connected to the belay ropes, the risk of injury from a fall is minimal. As he speaks, two more people walk in and curiously scan the abstract surroundings within. "Any outdoor climbing is a minimum of 90 miles away," said Jung. "So when you can't go there, you can do this." V

pay sweat equity which constitutes labor done by the applicant totaling 500 hours,"! said Richison. "We helped in the beginning process of the house," Richison said. "Anyone who wishes to help may bring a starter package." The package should include: food items, such as canned goods, or household products and tools, Richison said. Mass fraternities from The University of Central Oklahoma helped provide their services to the community by helping Habitat complete their project, said Richison. "The Sigma Tau Gamma, Alpha Tau Omega, and Kappa Sigmas have taken time out of their busy schedules to help in the
completion of the project," said Richison. "We were involved in completing the yard work, painting the inside of the house, and building a ramp for a wheelchair," Richison said, "because one of children is physically disabled." Another UCO organization which volunteered their support was the Baptist Student Union, said BSU Associate Director Suzanne Lillard. "We have been volunteering our support for years," said Lillard. "My parents have been involved with Habitat for a long time, and we (the BSU) try to help any time that they need us." There will be refreshments for those attending the ceremony. V

Grid woes linger... wait 'til next year By Bill Kramer
Sports Editor
Central Oklahoma's football team extended its school-record string of losing seasons to six, but 17 starters and four medical hardship starters return next year, giving the Bronchos much potential. The entire backfield is back, including sophomore tailback sensation Tyrone Jones (901 yards rushing and seven TDs) and junior quarterback Mark Reiland (56-142 660 yards, 4 TDs). Junior place kicker Lee Stamper, who booted eight of 11 field goals this year, and a bone-crushing youthful defense will also contribute to what should be a successful 1992. The Broncho defense allowed just 270.5 yards in the final six games, after giving up 4-44.8 yards a game prior to that. Linebacker Jason Melkisetian (the team leader with 100 tackles) and nose guard Ira Richards (who led down linemen in tackles with 61 and had nine sacks) are back, along with Junior free safety Maurice Davenport (who paced the secondary with 75 tackles). Only two defensive starters graduate - defensive tackle Kenny Chamlee (51 tackles and seven sacks) and strong safety Jason Stubbs (69 tackles and seven broken-up passes). "We've got a lot of people coming back next year, and if we work hard in the off-season to improve ourselves, I think we've got a chance to become a pretty good football team next year," said coach Gary Howard, who finished his 15th year with an 83-65-5 career record, second best on the all-time charts behind C.W. Wantland's 104 victories. y

The Eagles have four starters back from last year's 13-17 squad, including 5-11 guard Marcus Hampton (15.0 ppg, 5.0 rpg) and 6-5 guard Anthony Porchia (15.4 ppg, 2.6 rpg). The Bronchos rolled to a 115-97 win against the NAIA school last season. UCO leads the series dating back to 1989, 2-1. We can help you fund

Central Oklahoma's women's basketball team is picked to finish seventh this year in the Lone Star Conference preseason poll, despite returning three starters. That won't happen if senior forward Lisa Lowden has anything to say about it. "We're going to have to prove them wrong," Lowden said of the preseason poll, conducted by league coaches, sports information directors and reporters. "Although we don't have much height this year, our quickness will help us. Experience will also be a plus since we have some good players back. "We were mad about being voted seventh, so we'll have to dig down deep, win some games and prove them wrong." Coach John Keely said he thinks a key to winning more games this year is moving Lowden to power forward. The lone senior has played small forward for most of her UCO career. Lowden said she doesn't mind the change. "I played post in high school," she said. "I think a bigger opponent on me will be a challenge and make me try to beat her, I'll work my hardest, try to go in to score. If not, I'll kick it out to one of the outside shooters." Lowden led Woodward to the state prep Class 3A playoffs three times, whining the championship as a junior. She was an All-Stater as a senior in 1988. Lowden was recrutied by several colleges, but she said her respect for Keely is one reason she became a Lady Broncho. "I was offered scholarships from several places, but coach Keely stayed in contact with me," Lowden said. "I heard the players here were really nice and he treats his players well. That's the main reason I came here. "Coach Keely emphasizes staying in school and making good grades. His door is always open to talk with him about anything. He cares about you as an individual more than as just a player." Lowden has been a model of consistency in her three years at UCO. She's averaged 43 percent from the field in her career, including 7.3 points a game. Lowden hit 46 percent from the field last last year and averaged 10.5 points a game. This year Lowden said she believes some of her teammates will take up the slack on the outside. "We have some excellent outside shooters," she said. "We also have a lot of young kids who can shoot really well, which should be a big help. We should have some depth this year." "Everyone has a good attidtude, but we need to talk more on the floor to keep each other pumped up. I get motivated by going to the gym early to shoot. "Teamwork also gets me motivated, because you can't win by yourself. The whole team wins and the whole team loses."
Six players scored in double figures as Central Oklahoma's women's basketball team cruised to an easy 106-48 exhibition victory against Fort Sill Monday night in the Broncho Field House. Rose State transfer Kara Kessler led all scorers with 20 points and 10 rebounds. Returning starter Ton'Nea Cox added 16 points and 13 rebounds for UCO. UCO shot 50 percent from the field, compared with only 23 percent for the Cannoneers and outrebounded Fort Sill 62-30. The Cannoneers were led by Tonya Rowell's 10 points and four rebounds. Evette Davis added nine points, six rebounds and six steals. Fort Sill trailed 61-19 at the half and was down by as many as 60 at one point. UCO's first real test comes Friday as the Lady Bronchos play the first of five-straight road games in the Pioneer Classic in Denton, Texas. UCO meets Southwest Baptist (Mo.) in the opener and Concordia Lutheran (Texas) on Saturday.

Technological emphasis gaining OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) — State education officials say a nearly fourfold increase in the number of college students graduating with degrees in computer science indicates the emphasis the world has put on technology. A new survey by the state regents indicates business and education degrees remain the most popular at Oklahoma's colleges and universities. Of the 11,348 bachelor's degrees awarded last year, 3,013 — or 26.6 percent — were in business and managementrelated areas. Education accounted for 2,204 — or 19.4 percent — of all bachelor's degrees. Following those two areas were engineering with 858 degrees; health professions, 835; social sciences, 636; communications, 556; public affairs and services, 420; and psychology, 397. The regents noted that the fastest-growing academic area is computer science, which grew from 68 bachelor's degrees in 1976 to 312 in 1990, an increase of 359 percent.
Oklahoma's ballerinas honored OKLAHOMA. CITY (AP) — The creator of a mural that honors Oklahoma's five world-class ballerinas says the artwork depicts more than just the beauty of ballet. "This painting is about our heritage," Mike Larsen, a Chickasaw Indian and prize-winning artist, said in a statement released at the ceremony held Sunday at the state Capitol. "It is a symbolic representation not only of the accomplishment of these ladies, but also of the essence of our lives conveyed through the arts." About 500 onlookers, many of them state officials, came to the Capitol ceremony for the mural and the now-retired ballerinas. All five, who gathered for the first time, are American Indian. "Dance is a prayerful life made visible," dancer Mocelyne Larkin told the crowd, passing on a belief she said came from her Shawnee background. Larsen spent about four months on the gigantic mural, a semicircle to fit in a natural arch of the Capitol's domed ceiling. The painting, which includes 25 people, measures 20 feet 4 inches across the bottom and is 10 feet 3 inches tall in the center. Five wild geese flying at the top of the work symbolize the grace and beauty of the ballerinas.
Elkhorn schools cancel dances ELKHORN, Wis. (AP)-- Elkhorn's schools have canceled dances until the state attorney general decides just how much slow dancing or kissing can occur before teachers must report it as sexual contact. State law requires educators to report to county authorities any sexual contact between students under 16. Walworth County has asked for a report every time two students dance too close or a boy has his hand in his girlfriend's back pocket. Teachers in the Elkhorn district said that was going too far, and the district on Friday suspended dances until it gets clarification from the state. Walworth County Judge Robert Kennedy said the activities are illegal sexual contact that could be called second assault and should be reported.
Americans becoming pessimistic WASHINGTON (AP) -- Americans are pessimistic about the economy and hungry for government action to strengthen it, said a poll released Sunday. No one in the 1,003 person poll rated the economy as excellent, and 63 percent described it as fair, not so good or poor. Asked their biggest personal economic problems, 27 percent named rising prices and 24 percent mentioned unemployment or job security. The poll found Americans trust Republicans more than Democrats to deal effectively with the nation's slipping competitive edge by a 39-27 margin.
