Associate Editor Three Central State University students were arrested yesterday on suspicion of distribution of a control dangerous substance after twelve officers from the Edmond Police Department and campus police surrounded and stormed East Hall, said CSU Police Chief Bob Roberts. Kenneth E. Hall, 23, of Wichita, Kan.; James A. Clay, 18, of Jay, Okla.; and Donald S. Truitt, 26, of Bethany were arrested shortly after 2 p.m. Another suspect in the case, Kurt J. Wise, 19, was arrested at about 3:30 p.m., in his classroom in the Liberal Arts Building, Roberts said. The fifth suspect in the case,

whom police did not identify, was arrested at about 5:45 p.m. Four of the suspects were booked into Oklahoma County Jail last night, said County Deputy Charles Grubb. Charges are expected to be filed later, Roberts said. Campus police and Director of Auxiliary Services Bob Field's office received complaints from residents who said they smelled marijuana. "The dorm patrol officer, Elic Bostik, also smelled it," Roberts said. Edmond police undercover officers did the majority of the work. The undercover surveillance started shortly after the start of the fall semester, Roberts said. "It was a judgement call (to go in). We thought with the bad

weather and finals all of them would be in their rooms," Roberts said. "An undercover operation can be on-going or pop up as needed," he said. Police did not see any narcotics, but did confiscate some items from one of the rooms, CSU police Sgt. Ed Forbes said. Some knives, including what was identified as a double-edged fighting knife, were confiscated from one of the rooms along with drug paraphernalia, including roach clips and razors, and a jug of water that police said will be tested for cocaine residue, Forbes said. "As far as we know, all five worked independently of each other, but we believe two had the same supplier," Roberts said. "We're not going to put up with it (drugs). We'd like to think this would make them stop and not come up here," he said. "Administration is 100 percent 'behind a drug-free campus and will give us whatever help we need in accomplishing that," Roberts said. Last spring, CSU police arrested seven people involved with drugs. Five of those were convicted on drug related-charges.

Final exams are needed To the Editor: Final exams may not be fair in some cases, but a good deal of the time they are necessary and are not designed to test a person's will to live. That kind of pressure does not come from the educators, it comes from an individual's own situation, whatever that might be. The teaching faculty gives you a choice to participate and to learn, they make themselves available to students and are more than willing to help.

Occasionally exams test an educator's ability to teach. If I were a teacher and gave a final exam of some sort and 50 percent came back graded D or below, that would indicate to me that

Letter perhaps I needed to adjust my teaching methods. If a student decides to do a swan dive from the roof of the

library, that action can't be laid in the lap of a faculty member as his responsibility. And let's face it, some of us are lazy and some of are dummies, and some of us just don't know any better. An argument has been made that that dreaded final robbed us of an A. For some people that very same exam might boost a person's grade up the scale. Those folks might actually look foreward to Finals. Mark Mitchell

PR Club thanked for hel, To the Editor: Hope Center of Edmond is very grateful for the time, energy and creativity that members of the Central State University Public

Letter Relations Club gave to us this year. They coordinated and publicized a very successful food drive at the university to help supplement our Food Pantry. Members also wrote public ser-

vice announcements and distributed them to local radio stations on our behalf. The organization's professional

and enthusiastic manner is to be highly commended. Ann Hann, director Hope Center of Edmond

Singers appreciated To the Editor: A music group under the director of Dr. Lon Dehnert gave per-

Letter sonnel in the Administration Building a short concert just before lunchtime Dec. 5. The

music was just beautiful. There are many fine voices within the group, and the students seemed to enjoy singing for us as much as we enjoyed listening. Thanks so much for the carols. They were very much appreciated. Trudy Gillis Academic Affairs

It is with a great deal of reluctance that I finish my last issue of The Vista. I had intended to complete the academic year as editor while I worked on my master's degree, but things didn't work out that way. I feel as if I've traveled this road before. In 1973, I had to drop out of school before I finished my bachelor's degree because my then 1-year-old son was ill. Now I must drop out for financial reasons, so I can help earn money to pay for his college education. Not that I don't anticipate new vistas as a professional journalist. I just had a lot of unfinished business and a few more changes and improvements I wanted to implement here. Working as editor has been one of the hardest, most frustrating, thrilling, exasperating, aggravating, satisfying things I've ever done. At first, it was absolute hell. Some of us were putting in 70 hours a week to get out those first few issues. Until administration thankfully put a stop to that lunacy. I couldn't have made it through the semester without my editors. They deserve a lot of credit, especially during the week I lost most of my sight. They went the extra mile and read things to me so we could still get the papers out. And the reporting students also came through, and many put in long hard hours. Mike was superb as ad manager, and Julie pasted up the paper and then trudged all over campus after it was printed to deliver it. I'm especially grateful to former editor Jack Money, who spent a number of hours advising and encouraging me. I also appreciate all the support from Lu Hollander and Dennie Hall. And I was fortunate to have an advisor who gave me the freedom to let my imagination go wild, and make suggestions and improvements gleaned from my experience at The Edmond Evening Sun. Mostly I'd like to thank Dr. Ray Tassin, who I suppose had the greatest influence on me, and is most responsibile for my aspirations and accomplishments as a journalist. In a world full of scoundrels and cheats, he insists on being ethical, and he is loyal to students. Many editors have gone before me, and many will follow. But I hope in some way what changes I've made will benefit my successors. I'll not be here to enjoy the laser printer and the extra staff I worked so hard to get. That is my greatest disappointment. But my fondest good wishes are extended to future editors, who I hope will make greater strides in improving The Vista, the oldest student publication in Oklahoma.


Art students to take study tour to N.Y. By Mark Mitchell Student Writer What do 20 Central State University students, Fifth Ave., Times Square, Madison Avenue, Sardi's, Greenwich Village and Spring break have in common? The answer is a study tour to New York City conducted by Dr. James Watson, assistant professor of art at CSU. The trip is comprised of 32 scheduled tours and seminars that include visits to advertising agencies, design schools and five major art museums. Admissions to the museums have already been bought. The trip will include attending two Broadway performances;

"Phantom of the Opera" and "Cats," tickets to which have already been bought, said Watson. "These (tickets) are hard to get," he said. The students participating have an initial meeting March i 5, 1989, and leave for New York March 18, returning March 23. The basic tour cost is $700. A deposit of $200 is due Jan. 16, 1989 and the $500 balance is due Feb. 10. An additional $150-$300 for spending money, meals, other admissions and souvenirs is suggested. One hour of art credit is available by registering for Art 4971. •

Tassin honored by writers Dr. Ray Tassin, chairman of the department of journalism at Central State University, has been awarded an Honorary Life Membership In Oklahoma City Writers Inc. Tassin, a member of Oklahoma City Writers since 1961, was presented the award for his literary achievement. A native of Holdenville, Okla., Tassin got started in the field of journalism at Holdenville High School, where he wrote for the school paper. Having enlisted in the U.S. Naval Reserve while a high school senior, he was called into active duty in World War II the day he was graduated from high school and assisted with a daily paper aboard a destroyer in the Pacific. Following the war, he worked in reporting and editing positions on Oklahoma newspapers while pursuing his college education. MB •

■ Mr

Tassin received his bachelor's and master's degrees from the University of Oklahoma and received his doctorate from the University of Missouri in 1964, becoming the first Oklahoman to earn a Ph.D in journalism. He was an assistant professor of journalism at Baylor University from 1957-60 and became a professor at Central State in 1961 before there was a journalism department. He has been the department's chairman since its inception. Tassin has authored six books and has had more than 600 articles published in magazines and newspaper magazine supplements. Tassin has been the Oklahoma City Writers' delegate to the Oklahoma Writers Federation for 10 years and is immediate past president of the Oklahoma Writers Federation, which is made up of 24 writers' clubs in the state.

For regional universities such as Central State University, there will be an increase of 19.15 percent for lower division courses, 18.03 percent for upper division and 24.93 percent for graduate courses. "If Oklahomans want to succeed, we must be nationally competitive," said Maletz. "The excellence in education that Oklahomans deserve requires

good faculty, good libraries and up-to-date equipment." "Even though there is an increase, it appears more reasonable than the 27 percent increase that was proposed earlier," said CSU President Bill Lillard.

Finishes education at CSU

Former Cowboys cheerleader to graduate By Larry Floyd Student Writer In the spring of 1986, Kristy Clark, a junior dance major at the University of Oklahoma at the time, had to choose between a quick move to Dallas for a final, extended tryout with the Cowboys Cheerleaders or a week of classes and another week of final exams to finish the semester. Clark chose the tryout with the Cowboys Cheerleaders and was selected with 36 others for the 1986-1987 squad. Hello, Big D; good-bye college education. But Clark left the Cowboys Cheerleaders after a year and enrolled the summer of 1987 at Central State University to cornplete her education. Clark, now 24, will finish her degree in broadcast journalism this semester. "It was time for me to move on and finish school. I always knew I would come back," she said. Clark said few people on campus have known she was a Cowboys Cheerleader prior to

enrolling at CSU. "It never really came up in conversation, I guess," she said. "No one just casually asks: 'Have you been a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader lately?'" Although Clark mostly enjoyed the experience as a Dallas cheerleader, she said the many hours of practice and the pay of only $15 per game offset much of the fun and excitement. The cheerleaders were expected to make cheerleading their priority and not to use it as a springboard to something else. "If you expect it for fame or a trip to Hollywood, forget it," Clark said. Clark recalled the high point of her days with the cheerleaders as the trip to London, England, in 1986 for the pre-season game with the Chicago Bears. The Bears were then the defending National Football League champions, and William "Refrigerator" Perry was an international celebrity. "The audience was so rowdy

and crazy, and the crowd noise was so loud we could barely hear the stereo to dance by. It was a real high," Clark said. She remembered the low point of these days with the Dallas team as the bickering and pettiness among the cheerleaders. Clark said this behavior resulted largely from the insecurity among the cheerleaders brought about by the required annual re-auditions for their positions. "I didn't feel any group unity at all. It was dog eat dog," Clark

said. After leaving the cheerleaders and enrolling at CSU last year, Clark chose broadcast journalism as her new major instead of continuing her dance major at OU. She felt she had achieved some of her goals in dancing, and the field now seemed less glamourous. Clark is looking for a job in broadcast production that will allow her to use her creativity. And she said she is now more interested in being behind cameras than in front of them.

Clark named advertising production or promotional work as her top choices for employment after graduation this month, but she said she is open to other opportunities. In hindsight, is Clark happy with her choice to drop her classes at OU with two weeks remaining in the semester and moving to Dallas for the tryout? "Yes! I would have killed myself later if I had said, 'No, I've got to take my finals,"' she said.

Radio station KCSC raises $96,000 plus By Mark Mitchell Student Writer KCSC recently wrapped up its semi-annual fundraiser, which garnered $96,068.95. "In my opinion, it was an overwhelming success," said Donna Peters, station manager of the public radio station located in the communications building on Central State University's campus. The station conducts two on air fund drives each year to solicit programming funds from the private sector in conjunction with a direct mail campaign according to Tom Anderson, KCSC's development officer. This fall the station added a new approach to raising funds. The goal of dropping a day for every 250 new memberships from the regular nine day drive period through a spot campaign was started in August. The result was a seven day fundraising period. "Going into it we didn't know what to expect. Tom and I thought realistically we would get maybe a hundred calls, we got 230," Peters said. Anderson said that persons answering the direct mail campaign before the on-air drive began were counted with responses to the spot campaign; combined totals were 510. "We looked at it (the spot campaign) as the seed for the regular fund-drive, as a reminder that the fund drive was coming up," said Peters. "Since the on-air drive was two days shorter, the response was smaller than last year," said Anderson. The seven day drive yielded $42,481.20, he said. "Prior to the on-air drive, we were ahead of where we were last year," said Anderson. Anderson said the direct mail campaign has generated $36,574.75 thus far and people are still responding.

"By the time it's all said and done, we'll probably be where we were last year," he said. The radio station plans to continue using the spot campaign but with a different twist. Anderson said they will be targeting new people who have not contributed before and the spots will be live instead of pre-recorded. "Although we were successful in reaching our membership goal, only six and one half percent of the total listening audience contribute, which is about the national average for public radio," he said. He said John Arnold, a journalism instructor at CSU, and his students helped answer the telephones , the campus mail service worked hard to get all the mailings out on time and the print shop was especially helpful.

And that's why we're now the only brewer who continues to use Beechwood aging to aid the natural carbonation of our beer. No other brewer has such a tradition of quality to live up to.

Read all of the options to see if they relate to the stem. The middle choices are used more often than the first and last choices. Matching questions are very complicated. The questions and answers the test-taker knows, should be answered first. The work then should be checked very carefully to be sure the same letter has not been more than once. When answering completion questions one should, again, fill in the ones he knows first, and spell all names correctly. All answers should be written in a complete sentence. Essay questions need to be read very slowly and carefully. Time should be taken to outline the response to the question. Any details or concepts which would make the answer complete should not be omitted. Nothing can help a student who did not study though, the pamphlet noted.

The 3rd Annual Faculty Social will take place from 4 to 6 p.m., Dec. 14 at the Sheraton Hotel Courtyard. Dr. Kathy Black, professor of health and physical education, and Dr. Mary J.

Sports Six Bronchos named all-conference The All-Lone Star Conference Football Team has been announced and Central State is well represented with two players making the first team along with four others making honorable mention. Senior defensive end Dean Shinault was named to the first team defense along with free safe-

ty Robert Gordon. Shinault was a mainstay on the Broncho defensive line all year. Shinault ended the year with only 50 total tackles as most opponents ran the other direction away from the Ponca City native who did lead the team in quarterback sacks with seven.

Gordon was named to the first team as well as he led the CSU secondary in almost every statistical category including total tackles, unassisted tackles and interceptions. Gordon, a junior from Ardmore, had 71 total tackles with 29 of those unassisted and had four interceptions. Those named honorable men-

Despite her lack of height, CSU eager gives it her all By Kent Blessing Guest Writer

Dia Snyder had her doubts following a sparkling three-sport career as a prepster at Piedmont High School just outside Oklahoma City. And the 5-2 Snyder's main worries arose from her lack of height. "It was always a dream of mine to play basketball on the college level," said the Central State point-guard. "But everyone always told me I was short, so I had my doubts. "My boyfriend played for OBU (Oklahoma Baptist University) my senior year of high school and I was at one of his games and got a chance to see CSU and OBU's women play. I thought, hey, I can play with these girls." Snyder's father made a phone call to CSU head coach John Keely, and a couple of scouting trips later her dream became a reality. Now Snyder is in the midst of her fourth and final season at CSU. The scrappy senior saw extensive playing time her first two years, started all 24 games last year and is starting again this season. Through six games this season, Snyder is averaging 7.2 points per game, leads the team in steals with 18 and is second on the team in assists with 16. Although the Lady Bronchos have had a tough time in the early going, posting a 2-4 record, Snyder feels it's only a matter of time before the team busts loose. "It's frustrating at this point in the season," Snyder said. "But we have a lot of new players so it's going to take some time. I feel we have some of the best talent since I've been here. The Christmas break will give us some time to work and I think we will come out smoking the beginning of the year." The youngest of four children, Snyder also excelled in softball and tennis while at Piedmont. But basketball was her first love. "I started dribbling a basketball when I was old enough to walk, I guess because my brother played and all," Snyder said. "I've always felt, though, that I have to give 110 percent and work a little harder than everyone else or I'll get left behind because of my height disadvantage." Although her small stature was considered an obstacle in her career, talent wasn't. Her older

brother was a wrestler in high school and her father was a catcher on Oklahoma State's 1959 national championship baseball team. "My family means a lot to me," Snyder said. "I get a lot of support from my family. I think they support me more than anyone I know." Snyder finishes up her eligibility this season and will graduate next

tion were tailback Pinkey Hurley on offense and linebackers Mike Bennett and Marty Irland along with cornerback Curtis Hill on defense. Hurley, a sophomore from Fox, led the Bronchos in rushing with 633 yards on 118 carries for a 5.4 yard per carry average. Hurley also scored four touchdowns. Bennett led the CSU linebacking corp and the team in tackles this year. The Crescent sophomore made a total of 106 stops with 38 of those unassisted. He also broke up four passes. Irland, coming back this year

after missing last season with a serious non-football related injury to his arm, was second on the team in tackles as he had 94 with 37 of those unassisted. Irland is a senior from Grapevine, Tex. Rounding out the list of CSU members on the team is junior cornerback Curtis Hill from Wagoner. Hill ranked second, behind Gordon, in secondary statistics as he finished with 59 tackles and three pass interceptions. Hill ended the year by being named LSC Player of the Week for his play against Eastern New Mexico.

Creatures to raise support at home games By Gia Walker Student Writer A new club called the Bleacher Creatures descended upon Central State University on Nov. 22 in order to promote spirit for the upcoming basketball season. The Bleacher Creatures will be

seen at every home game this season and for maybe many seasons to come. "The purpose of the group is to generate spirit and just have fun," said Coach John 'Skip' Wagnon, Athletic Director at CSU. The idea came from women's

head basketball coach John Keely, according to Wagnon. The group will make it's debut this weekend as the women host the CSU Classic on Friday and Saturday with tip-offs at 2 and 4 p.m. each day. Teams involved are Cameron, Missouri Western and Pittsburg State. Then Satur-

day night the men officially open the home season against Central Missouri with tip-off scheduled for 8 p.m. The group is sponsored by Dominoes Pizza who donated the first 100 t-shirts. Although the t-

shirts have all been taken the Bleacher Creatures are in the process of getting Dominoes to donate some more, people can still join in on this fun, spirited, non-formal group by contacting Keely at ext. 2141.

New spring staff announced for The Vista The Vista will be restructured and have a new student staff in the spring, said Mark Hanebutt, faculty advisor. Mark Finley, fall sports editor and a post-graduate, will take over the editorship from Martha Giglio who has recently accepted a job as general assignment reporter at The Edmond Evening Sun. Valli Covert, a sophomore and associate editor in the fall, will assume the duties of managing editor, and Mike Sullivan, a senior, will take over as sports editor. Larry Floyd, a postgraduate, will fill the position of copy editor. Returning as advertising manager is Mike Chin, a senior, and circulation and paste-up will be done by John Burruss, also a

senior. April Pedersen and John Kidwell, both juniors, will split the duties of graphic artists/cartoonists. Staff reporters for the spring will be; Jerry Pierce and Mei Pong, both seniors, and sophomore Kamal Mazlan. Hanebutt said, "I'm cautiously optimistic about the future. We have a quality spring staff lined up, and our long range needs are being considered. We seem to be moving in the right direction. "We had planned a complete redesign of The Vista, but a reduction in student hours forced us to postpone that until spring. Fortunately, we've been given some more money for muchneeded equipment an additional

Tuition Continued from page 3 registrar, said that he didn't think the increase would have any effect on enrollment. "If anything, when it comes to affecting CSU, it will influence a few students from comprehensive colleges to come to CSU," Gilliland said. "The total cost of education is shared by tuition and appropriated money," said Gilliland. "Over the past 10 to 15 years, students had not been paying a reasonable share, and ad-

justments over the past two years have been an attempt to get students to pay a more equitable share." Gilliland said that official notification from the regents is expected in 10 to 15 days, and that if reports are accurate, a three-hour lower division course will be increased by a cost of $16.95. According to Maletz, eight regents voted. The lone dissenting vote came from Avalon Reece. Maletz said this is the seventh increase since 1980.

was a real learning experience and I hope to learn even more this spring. I hope to improve the quality of The Vista now that our staff has been increased." Giglio said, "I had the advantage of an internship at The Edmond Sun before becoming editor of The Vista. I think it helped me and gave me a lot of insight into the workings of a newspaper and inspired me to make some changes here. "At first it was a nightmare with equipment breaking down all the time. But Dr. Tassin en-

couraged us to request a laser printer and other equipment needed to upgrade the paper. "Since the staff will be expanded, the editors will be freed up to make more changes and improvements. I'm excited about the direction the paper is taking, and I'm sure great things will happen this spring. "There won't be as much pressure on editors in the future because of the larger staff. I would encourage more people to consider working at The Vista," she said.
