East Hall official says:
Vandalism on rise in dorms By Matthew Driskill Associate Editor
Vista photo by Mary Gay Franklin
Arson resulted a fire in this stairwell on the south side of East Hall Monday night. East Hall officials say the potential for damage was great, but no injuries were reported.
Vandalism always increases in the dormitories toward the end of the semester, according to Don Jaeger, assistant head resident at East Hall. Jaeger says pent-up frustrations during finals are the main cause. Vandals leave their calling cards in the different forms, ranging from broken bottles in the halls to firecrackers wrapped in toilet paper that acts like a fuse allowing the vandal to escape before the tiny bomb goes off. Another and more serious form of vandalism is arson. A small fire was set Monday night in an East Hall stairwell, causing little damage, but a great deal of smoke that could have injured someone, Jaeger said. "There's a difference between the fires and the vandalism," Jaeger said. "The vandalism gets done by a guy who gets mad because he had a fight with his girlfriend, got drunk, or something like that. That's when they take a sink out of the wall and stuff like that. That's the kind of stuff that you don't want to be seen doing." Jaeger said. "But a fire—what good does a fire do if someone doesn't see it? That's the kind of thing that someone does to impress somebody. Either that or you crazy." Jaeger said the main danger from the fire was not the flames, but the smoke. He said the design of the building will cut the flame danger, but the risk of someone dying from smoke inhalation is increased. "When that fire alarm goes off, guys don't where the fire is. If it's in the stairwell and you're trying to get away and you open the door, there it is." "We just absorb the damage as a loss for the housing department." Jaeger said another problem centered aiound the fact that some of the dorm residents wouldn't leave when the fire alarms went off. "We had a problem with the fire the other night
because some of the residents wouldn't leave, I think it was mainly some of the football players. In fact Chief (Jim) Dunn called in the Edmond police to roust some of them out." Dunn head CSU Campus Security. Jaeger said that most of the fires and vandalism didn't physically injure many people, but the cost to the student body over the long run could have serious consequences. "It's not like all this is going to kill a lot of people, but at a time when we're facing budget cuts and we're trying to finish building the building and we're busy putting stuff back together these fools are tearing up," Jaeger said. Jaeger said the main perpetrators are students that will not be returning to the campus and ones that have been removed from the dorm for different violations of the rules. "We had a group of four that were removed and the next night we had several fires in the trash cans. Now you can't prove they did it, but it doesn't take much to figure it out, does it?" Jaeger said. "The thing that's wild about all this, is that the residents don't care. They don't pay a security deposit or anything like that. And on nights when there's a big party somewhere, a bunch of guys go out and get drunk and get in a fight or something. Then they come back in the dorm and that's when we lose a sink or two," Jaeger said. "Basically, the rest of the year we just get a firecracker or two by an resident assistant's door and things like that. But when you light a bundle of papers, that's something that's just not going to go out by itself." "Other than the fact that all this gets expensive, it's kind of demoralizing when you're walking down the stairways and you see that big, burned spot and the trash all around it. We have to be on guard 24 hours a day and that gets frustrating," Jaeger said. Jaeger said,"I think the thing that bothers me most is that fact that the guys just don't care."
Student input sought
Lillard to mull ceremony chan es By MaryGaye Franklin Staff Reporter CSU President Bill Lillard said he is open to consideration of any changes concerning procedures in the commencement exercises held here. However, Lillard said, in an interview Tuesday, that he has no views pro or con about proposed changes made by Student Senate President Joe McCourry. "I'm open-minded to any changes proposed by the students and faculty concerning commencement," Lillard said. "Whether or not the proposals would be accepted would depend
on imput from the students and faculty. It is important to get their reaction to such changes." McCourry presented a proposal concerning the graduation ceremony to Lillard on Nov. 28. In his proposal McCourry outlined a plan whereby baccalaureate candidates would be recognized individually during the ceremony. The way the ceremony is conducted now only the masters degree candidates are recognized individually. Baccalaureate candidates within each school have their degrees conferred upon them as a group. McCourry said he

thinks this is discrimination against the undergraduates. Lillard pointed out that the president's office is not the office that would be handling the actual approval of such a recommendation. Such a proposal would go through the office of academic affairs with the vice president of academic affairs in charge. Lillard said he gave a copy of McCourry's proposal to Dr. James Perry, vice president of academic affairs for consideration by that office. "McCourry's proposal has some very interesting points and it definitely warrants further study," Perry said "We would like to get feed-back from other members of the graduating class to see how they feel about such changes." According to Perry, his office plans to take a survey of the students that will be graduating this spring in order to get their views on the proposed changes. "Graduation day is an important day for both the students and their families. It is a day of great significance and is the apex of a students academic effort. I would
be willing to consider anything that would make the day more significant. Yet at the same time I think we should try to maintain some tradition and the solemnity of the occassion," Perry said. Lillard said in the past the baccalaureates themselves voted to discontinue individual recognition when the class size got over 1,000. They maintained that they would rather do without the recognition than extend the time required for the ceremony. "We are concerned with observing the students reaction to the proposal," Lillard said. "I am certain during consideration of this proposal there will be an organized effort by administration to do some formal research on the opinions of the students concerning the matter. "We want to evaluate the situation to see if any meaningful changes can be made in the way the ceremony is conducted. Commencement is a little more complex than most people realize and there is some history and tradition involved that we need to try and observe. We can not be changing the ceremony format every year," Lillard said.
Perry said that there are a number of options that could be considered in changing the ceremony. "I am enthused about sitting down with the student senate executive committee and getting a better explanation of their plans and working with them to come up with some other options," Perry said.

Opinion Page U.S. gradually sinking in Lebanon quagmire By Matthew Driskill Associate Editor Once again the United States has become more deeply involved in the quagmire of Lebanon. Two Navy fighter planes were shot down Sunday, with the result of at least one captured pilot and another whose status is undetermined at this time. Editorial The Marines stationed at Beirut airport came under heavy shelling from Druse militiamen with eight Marines killed in the fighting. Again, the mission in that war-torn country remains clouded behind terms of 'peace-keeping,' and others that hide the fact that the Reagan administration has not formed a clear U.S. policy for the Middle East. This country, if the administration is not careful, could become more deeply involved than it really wants to, if the people don't start speaking out against the U.S. role as it is now defined. This is not to say that American troops
should not be there, but the administration should give them a clear idea of what they are fighting for. Government officials resent the fact that the U.S. role in Lebanon is being compared to Vietnam, but in Vietnam, there was no clear reason to fight, no one knew what America was fighting for in that war either. Troops have been committed to a place where they are in danger 24 hours day, seven days a week. They cannot shoot first and can only return fire, sometimes a little too late to save their buddies. The Marines are forced to occupy a position that is constantly under attack and remains oh so vulnerable. Why can't the administration give them a reason to be there and the American public a reason to believe that they should be there? As stated earlier, the American public needs to speak out against the U.S. role in Lebanon as it is now stated by the administration. Let the message go out that no longer will the lives of the young men of this country be wasted on a war with no purpose.

Then they can do what is Dear Friends, I am with you all the way! I don't best for us without us bothering them. I also think they should lay off about want a tax increase because I never wanted to go to summer school 5,000 teachers because they probably anyway. Now that there won't be a need a vacation and wouldn't mind drawing unemployment for a while. A summer semester, I won't have to go. Also, since aid is getting smaller and lot of state employees need to be laid tuition higher, I may not have to go to off, too. Then they can experience life school at all.

Tax increase foes support private schools over public Letter to the Editor: Many of those who fought a tax increase needed to prevent disaster to public schools and universities share on other viewpoint. Sen. John McCune, Rep. Gean Atkinson and Rep. Steve Sills, all with part of Edmond in their districts, and publishers Edward Gaylord and Ed Livermore Jr. sent or send their children to private schools. The publishers carry the additional burden of editorial campaigns criticizing the poor quality of public schools compared to the private institution they favor. While public schools struggle along on less than $1,000 a year per student, the favored private school operates on $3,000 a year per student.
This translates into 10-to-12 students in the private school classroom compared to 30-fo-40 students in the public school classroom. Abundant high-tech and other lequipment in one, and almost none in the other, is the result. With the economic crunch just ahead, the public schools will move backward from their already disadvantage position. How unfortunate these elitists refuse to see the correlation between budget and quality. Or, as seems more likely, perhaps they do see the correlation but are not all that interested in the schools for the children of others. Name witheld by request

Perry working with deans on cuts State,local, world news Lawmakers accused of extortion Oklahoma state Rep. Don Denman and two others were accused Tuesday of violating federal extortion laws in a case involving a Tulsa mental hospital and a Tulsa school for drop-out students. The other two indicted by a federal grand jury were E. Smith Denman, the father of Rep. Denman, and Glen K. Wallace, western program director of the state Mental Health Department. The indictment alleges a scheme involving the lease of a building in Tulsa that would have passed on the costs of maintaining the building to the taxpayers. Denman was accused of promising "vast increases" in state money to the agency that rented the building. His father is accused of trying -to recruit state-funded renters for the property. All three men involved in the scheme face a $30,000 fine and up to 60 years in prison.
House vacancy filled Larry Gish, former Stillwater city manager, defeated two challengers Tuesday, to replace former Speaker of the House Dan Draper. Gish, who runs a consulting firm for cities in Oklahoma and Kansas, defeated Independent Rex Boyd and Republican Tressia Ables. Gish replaces Draper who was convicted of vote fraud in federal court this past summer.
New combat helmets lauded
By MaryGaye Franklin Staff Reporter ; Dr. James Perry, vice president of academic affairs, said that he had hoped that the legislature ' would pass some sort of tax measure to prevent large budget !cuts. When the special session was ladjorned early without taking ac1tion the university was immediately faced with problem of putting ,everything on hold and dealing with the dilemma of cuts backs. "The kinds of reductions we
are looking at are significant and they will touch almost every area of the campus," Perry said." Perry requested that each of the deans come up with what they thought were viable options for adjustments within their schools at different levels of budget cuts. "We have a very large academic program at CSU and we have some significant adjustments to make on this campus due to funding situation," Perry said. "My goal in working with the deans is to try to figure how we

continued from page 1 "We do have some physical ' limitations here at CSU when thinking about changes to the ceremony," Perry said. "We have a sod field in the stadium and that could cause mud problems on a wet day. There is also the asphalt track, on hot days the chairs would puncture the surface and with only two fairly narrow stairways leading into the grandstand we have a problem with traffic flow." Perry said that he does not feel - that McCourry's charge of discrimination against the baccalaureate candidates is valid. "I think that it is hard to say that baccalaureate candidates are
being discriminated against during commencement," Perry said. "Commencement has always had a traditional format at CSU similar to other institutions across the nation. So I do not think that they have been intentionally discriminated against." There have been some suggestions made about the possibility of having a separate commencement for masters degree candidates before the baccalaureate ceremony. Lillard said he would not favor such a move. "I don't see any useful purpose in having separate commencements," Lillard said. "Some of the effectiveness and impressiveness of the ceremony is

Lillard said that a decision concerning changes in the commencement format would be made by a month before spring commencement. The question of adding a fall graduation ceremony to the spring ceremony. Lillard and Perry both said that the recent trend of universities and colleges nationally is to have only one ceremony per year. These ceremonies are usually held in the spring. Lillard said, "One of the problems with more than one graduation is that at the end of a semester students quickly scatter. This is especially true in the fall semester."
The Army has nothing but high praise for a new helmet they are using that has been credited with saving the lives of two American servicemen in Grenada. The new helmet features a fiberglass one-piece body that replaces the old steel-pot and liner helmet used since World War II. The helmet also features a design similar to the ones used by Germany in that war. The Army reports that while on Grenada, a soldier took a hit from a Soviet AK-47 assault rifle directly on the helmet resulting in a small dimple. Another was hit by a piece of shrapnel from a 20mm explosive round. Again the helmet saved the soldier's life Although many praise the new helmet, many others, mainly long-time veterans, complain about it. It's one piece design makes it impossible for the soldiers to cook or wash in it.

January debut set for Wanderdog
Canine inspires new kids game By Tonia Sykes CSU student Connie Karczewski has created an innovative game, THE PACK, which is also a club for eight to 12 year-old children who like dogs, playing games, belonging, competing and receiving their own mail. "Studies reveal that modern technology will continue to create more and more leisure time in the American lifestyle. Making constructive use of that time is a skill of growing importance," Karczewski said. "Development of that skill is the purpose of THE PACK. Members track Wanderdog, a mischievous-looking, wide-eyed pup, by working with the names, shapes, locations and two-letter abbreviations of the states as well as state capitals. "Members are challenged to investigate many sources of references at home and in libraries and, with maybe a little help from Mom and Dad, they can learn about the states and become familiar with the map," Karczewski said. "THE PACK provides the extra incentive that is sometimes needed to encourage children to look to books for fun and entertainment." Although Wanderdog is a fantasy and probably would be classified by most people as a mutt, he resembles Blackberry, the Karczewski's dog who died this summer. "We used to put papers down in the garage for Blackberry and he always slept on the travel section. My daughter Amy and I noticed how he would sometimes twitch and jerk in his sleep so we decided he had to have been dreaming. We developed this theme in THE PACK," Karczewski said. The emphasis on geography stems from an "Elements in Human Geography" course Karczewski took at CSU. "When the instructor passed out a blank map of the United States and asked us to fill in the names of the states, I was surprised when not only I, but the other members of the class as well could not correctly place all 50 states," she said. Karczewski learned how to organize a business venture in another CSU class, "Start Your Own Business." Each student had to develop a prospectus as the final project. "Mr. Edwards, the instructor, liked my idea and encouraged me to pursue marketing the game. I incorporated the information from both classes with the observations of Blackberry and THE PACK is the result," she said. "My daughter, who is 12, contributed a lot of ideas." Each member of THE PACK's U.S.A. tour will receive by mail a PACK-Kit in January when Wanderdog embarks on his first tour. The kit includes an exclusively designed folder with a red, white and blue outline map of the continental United States, special tracking tools, paw-print playing pieces, a membership card and sticker, instructions, a newsletter and return envelope. In his first tour, Wanderdog dreams his way around the United States exploring new people, places and things. "Often he's puzzled, sometimes heroic, but almost always he's lost. That is where the PACKmember takes over and the
fun, the challenge and the learning begin," Karczewski said. Since THE PACKis an active membership, the member can look forward to two club newsletters which will arrive approximately six weeks apart in February and April. The newsletter will contain not only clues from Wanderdog about what he's been doing and seeing but also pet care articles, contests, riddles and activities to share with friends and family. Clues will be based on historical people, holidays and current events which are happening in a particular state. The answers must be mailed in by mid-May in the confidential reply envelope provided in order to fulfill the mission as a PACKmember. "Because the members are rewarded on a personalized basis for their achievement, they are motivated to do their best," Karczewski said. "Each member will earn one uniquely designed award
sticker for completion of the tour. If the member masters all the clues, he will also earn the highly coveted Ace Tracker Award Sticker." Awards will be mailed at the end of May. To encourage early reservations in the U.S.A. tour, THE PACKwill donate $100 in geographical teaching aids to he school with the largest membership by Dec. 15. The cost of regular membership is $7.50 per child which includes applicable tax and mailing cost. Orders for Wanderdog's first tour will be taken until Jan. 30. "Also, gift memberships are available for holiday giving," Karczewski said. "We will send a special greeting card in time for Christmas announcing the gift. Orders for Christmas giving are $8.00 and must be received by Dec. 15. All orders should be mailed to THE PACK, P. 0. Box 23112, Okla. City, OK 73123.

Baker sees arallels in Rea an's colic By Mike Sherman Editor
CSU history professor Dr. James Baker sees a clear parallel between the policies of Ronald Reagan and Woodrow Wilson in Central American. Baker also believes that while Wilson's led to turmoil in the regions, Reagan's policies could do worse. Baker demonstrated this parallel in an article published in the Nov. 21 issue of Newsweek in the "My Turn" column. The article, entitled "Invasion Flashback," compares Wilson's intervention in Mexico's revolution in 1914 to Reagan's current covert action against the Sandinistas in Nicaragua. This comparison fits the current situation better than Vietnam, he said. Baker submitted the article to Newsweek and waited several weeks, but received no response. But when the U.S. invasion of Grenada hit the front pages, Newsweek requested that Baker rewrite the lead to tie the article into the invasion. Baker said the comparison does not fit Grenada as well as it does Nicaragua. The islanders on Grenada welcomed American troops, while Nicaraguans rallied around the leftist Sandinistas, he said. "Woodrow Wilson's policy is very similar to Reagan's in that Wilson wanted to effect the outcome of that revolution and failed while Reagan wants to effect the turmoil going on in Central America now," Baker said. "Where Wilson was counter-productive, I'm afraid Reagan is headed in the same direction." The article outlines the events leading up to Wilson's commitment of troops in April of 1914. "Wilson's policies were based on false assumptions about the nature and causes of the revolution," according to the article. "He looked upon it as a Byronic struggle between good and evil, between the forces of democracy and the forces of tyranny. The problem, as the president saw it, was the man in power, a despot named Victoriano Huerta. He was Wilson's 'Sandinista' government, and Wilson concluded Mexico would be better off without him." As Wilson attempted to subvert the Huerta regime, domestic support for it grew, according to the article, because the church and wealthy resented the intervention. Wilson committed U.S. combat forces and was able to occupy
Veracruz and depose Huerta, but Baker's article maintains that the U.S. suffered still. "He wanted democracy for Mexico, but the man who succeeded Huerta, Carranza, soon established a dictatorship," Baker wrote. Also, Latin America reacted unfavorably and most of the region failed to enthusiastically support the U.S. in World War I. "Ronald Reagan is very much like Wilson in that he is judging governments by their ideological make-up and is trying to make those governments over in American's image," Baker said in an interview. "Then he goes on to say that the government in El Salvador is a democracy, but this is a government that refuses to do anthing about right-wing death squads. "I don't like the Sandinista's, but I assure you that Nicaraguans are no worse off then they were under Somoza," Baker said referring to the former ruler of that country who was supported by the U.S. As a result of Reagan's policies, Baker said, nations such as Venezuela, Colombia and Mexico have been alienated. Baker believes Reagan, like Wilson, has misjudged the reasons for the revolutions in the area, this time leaning too heavily on the notion that Cuban and the Soviet Union are responsible. The problems date back to Spanish rule of the region, Baker said. "The system the people have experienced there has been one of absolutism," Baker said. "A small elite group controlled the economy. They have had no experience in self-government and had an economic system that ignored the basic necessities of a vast majority of the people. How do you solve that kind of problem overnight? "Central America has been plagued with corrupt dictatorships since its independence from Spain." Baker admitted that he isn't a prophet, but he believes valuable lesson's can be learned from history. "I believe there are parallels which can be drawn from history, but it will not give us a clear blue-print to the future," he said. Baker concludes the article by asking the reader if Reagan is repeating Wilson's tactics in Central America. "One hopes not, but as one reviews the historical record, one gets the alarming feeling that American under Reagan is going through one of those awful example of deja vu," he concludes. ------------------------------

Lady Bronchos fall to OCC
Bronchos squeak by Eagles 51-49 By Mark Spears Sports Editor
CSU men's and women's basketball teams took on the Oklahoma Christian College Eagles Monday night in Broncho Fieldhouse. The women dropped their second straight decision losing 60-57, while the men upped their record to 6-4 beating OCC for the second time in three days 51-49. The Lady Bronchos started the evening off meeting a Lady Eagle team that returned all but one player from last years squad. After being behind at the half 30-26 it looked as though CSU would pull it out with flurry of steals at the end of the game, but unfortunatly time ran out. "We lost to a good ballclub by three points," head coach John Keely said. "They've got as much talent as anybody in the nation and they have good depth." The Lady Bronchos got a balanced scoring attack with four players in double figures. One of the keys in the game was that the CSU bench was only able to manage six points and also had three crucial turnovers late in the game. "I've got to play the bench more. We got tired toward the end of the game," Keely commented. After hitting for over 55 percent in their first two victories the Lady Bronchos have shot 43.5 percent (against Bethany) and 41.8 percent (against OCC) in their last two losses.
"We've just got to hit a higher percentage of our shots," Keely said. The men's basketball team broke CSU's all-around losing streak of four games in a row by defeating the Eagles in what turned out to be a squeaker after CSU pulled ahead with 13 minutes remaining in the game 44-31. The Bronchos could only manage one point in the next nine minutes as they allowed the Eagles to pull within two, 45-43, with four minutes to go in the game. After Chuck Kersgieter put the Bronchos on top 49-47 the Eagles C.J. Johnson tied the game for
SPORTS
the first time at 49 after a steal with 15 seconds to go. The Bronchos Keith Russell was fouled in the act of shooting with nine seconds left. He canned both free throws to give the Bronchos their winning two point margin. Russell and Kersgieter led the way for the Bronchos scoring 21 and 20 points respectively while Phil Giachino led the team with eight rebounds. The Bronchos and Lady Bronchos will play again tonight as they host the Phillips Haymakers at Broncho Feildhouse. The Lady Bronchos will tip of at 5:30 p.m. with the Bronchos to follow at 7:30.

Bronchos must wonder where it all went bad
By Mike Sherman Editor It was not a happy scene in the Bronchos' lockeroom at around 4:30 Saturday afternoon, and no one expected it to be. After all, the defending champions had just been ousted from the NAIA playoffs that most people—including themselves—thought they would own. Sherm's sidelines Saginaw Valley of Michigan had just traveled to Edmond, upset the Bronchos 14-13 and rained all over everyone's parade. Fans scatched their heads and wonder how this team that was supposed to be big and slow could come down here and look so huge and fast? But, several players were bitter following the loss. "This has all been a waste of time," mumbled one player to himself. "You come out here all year and then lose. It's just a waste." Others echoed his thoughts and even others wondered out loud if they would return next year, even though they had eligibility remaining. This, friends, is called folding the tent and heading for the hills. It really isn't what you would expect from a team as experienced as CSU. After all, most of these guys had been there before. Most had experienced the spoils of a champion last year and at the same time witnessed how difficult it was to earn the title. Fortunately, the "fold the tent" attitude was not supported by a majority of the players. Senior quarterback Randy Page sat around with a blank look on his face, talking to reporters. But there was no regret on his mind. "No one can tell me we weren't the best team out there," Page said. "We just lost the ball game. They came up with the big plays all year and they did it again today." Most didn't have much at all to say.
Offensive lineman Buddy Link, another senior, was asked what had happened to CSU's high
powered offense. Link offered what may have been the most profound theory on how the finetuned machine began running like a '70 Chevelle with only five cylinders. "I tell you what hurt us was all those open dates at the end of the year," Link said. "That wasn't really the reason we lost today, but our offense really hasn't been the same since we were 6-0. After the East Central game, we have been a little off on timing." At a closer look, Link's thesis is very logical. From Oct. 15 on, the Bronchos played only four games. That's four games in eight weeks. Practices are fine and all that, but how many teams can stay sharp playing that kind of schedule. In three of those four games, the Bronchos had to come from behind. In the last one, they tried but failed. Sure, there were plenty of other reasons one could shake a finger at for the loss to Saginaw. The missed extra point, three interceptions, costly and foolish penalties resulting from perhaps a lack of discipline on the part of some players was costly; these are some that stick out. And searching for excuses isn't really the best practice. Someone once said excuses were for losers. The Bronchos, who finished 8-1-1, aren't losers. They just didn't win this time. And a loss like this one would leave anyone groping for answers. Besides, what else is there to do other than make excuses the week before finals anyway. I guess one could be folding up the tent.
