Seasons , reeting Lillard foresees no budget cuts at CSU next semester By Shannon Blockcolski

Lditor Despite the estimated $363 million decrease in state revenue for the next fiscal year, beginning July 1, 1987, CSU should not suffer any major budget cuts next semester, according to Dr. Bill Lillard, CSU president. "Gov. Henry Bellmon said during his campaign, and has repeated often since then, that there will be no further cuts in education," Lillard said. "Unless there is a recent decrease in state revenue, we have enough money to finish out the school year and work towards providing the maximum number of sections." The State Equilization Board met in December to project the state of Oklahoma's revenue for the next fiscal year, Lillard said. The $363 million decrease was

based on a crude oil price of $15, he added. The board will meet again in February to give the final word on the revenue for fiscal year 1987-88. "Nothing at this time says what our budget will be next year," Lillard said. "I don't forsee any major problems for next semester, though." According to Lillard, Bellmon predicts the worst case scenerio would be that at the end of June, the state would end up with no extra money in the bank for July. If hit by budget cuts, Lillard said CSU's revenue from the oil and gas exploration would not offset the decrease in funds. "Every little bit helps, but you are talking about a $30 million budget with only a $135,000 pro-

OG

fit, which will not make too much of a difference. "Yet the profit will help when you are trying to cut back during the year in educational supplies and equipment," he said. During a recent meeting of the college of Liberal Arts, Dean Clif' Warren said he was expecting an 18.7 percent cut instead of a 15 or 8 percent, as Bellmon mentioned in his request for university budget cut recommendations. Lillard said he had no idea where Warren heard that figure, "the only cuts ever mentioned were the 8 and 15 percent cuts." Also during the meeting, Warren mentioned that CSU has only one support person for each faculty member, while Oklahoma University has five to one and Oklahoma State University four to one.

Health department expects epidemic of Tiawan Flu virus By Kim Voynar

Associate Editor Although there is no widespread epidemic of the Taiwan Flu virus at the present time, Phyllis McKee, director of the Immunization Division of the State Department of Health, said she anticipates seeing it within the next month. However, some Edmond schools are already reporting higher than normal absentee rates. Sequoyah Middle School

had 240 students absent Tuesday out of a total enrollment of 1,300, according to the attendance secretary. The attendance secretary at John Ross Elementary said 50 students out of a total enrollment of 641 were absent Tuesday. At Edmond North Mid-High, 106 out of 940 students were absent Wednesday, which the attendance secretary there said is "about twice as much as normal."

The attendance secretary at Cimarron Middle School also said absences there were about twice as high as normal, with 71 out of 1,007 students absent Wednesday. Clegern Middle School had 22 out of 218 students absent Wednesday, but the attendance secretary there said most of these absences were due to an outbreak of chicken pox.

Opinion Page Staff Commentaries

Editor answers pertinent questions By Shannon Blockcolski For my final commentary of this semester, I have decided to answer some of the many questions I have been asked throughout my reign as editor about my job and The Vista. Why do you run John Buttry's guest commentary? A popular question. I feel it is my job to represent the voice and opinion of every student, faculty and staff member on campus. Most daily newspapers (like the Disappointment) present only the opinion of the publisher in their editorial page. I encourage any person on this campus to write a guest commentary and submit it to me at The Vista office, CB107. I do

request that the commentary writer be literate and have some grasp of grammar and punctuation usage.

coverage in the newspaper, I need to be notified at least a week in advance, not the day before or after.

Why do you run "Artist and Artisia"? Okay, so I don't understand it either. But I try to stimulate the intellectual capabilities of the students on this campus, and I am sure there is someone besides Deborah True that understands the deep philosophical meanings of this cartoon. How come you didn't know that my club was having a meeting, and why wasn't it in the paper? I am not psychic, I cannot know what is happening everywhere on campus all of the time. If any campus group, club or organization wants

Why can't I run an ad on the front page? According to the policy of every newspaper in the United States, no advertisements can be placed on the front page or the editorial page. This would show a conflict of interest and seem that the advertiser is supporting the editorial opinion, or influencing the news content, of the newspaper. Where is the yearbook office? The Bronze Book office is located on the south side of the Communications Building facing the University Center, and the door is marked "Publications Office." It seems strange that even

though there is a sign on our door saying it is "The Vista" office, people still ask this question.

Why did you run that rubbish on motorcycles and women? Another popular question. I am a feminist myself, and even though I personally do not agree with Mr. Hunter's commentary, The Vista is a forum for student opinions. Plus, it was funny; sick, but funny. How did you get chosen to be the editor? My experience in the journalism field and my masochistic enjoyment of being overworked and underpaid were taken into consideration when the staff selections were made last spring.

'Twos the week before finals at CSU By Kim Voynar Associate Editor 'Twas the week before finals at CSU, Half of the students were sick with the flu, Tossing and turning, they lay in their beds, As nightmares of finals danced in their heads. With textbooks and lecture notes, No Doz and Bayer, Those who were well enough tried to prepare They studied and studied, they

stayed up all night, They crammed for exams with all of their might. In the back of their minds was the great expectation Of three weeks rest — a much needed vacation. When all through the dorm rooms there arose quite a clatter, The students had figured out what was the matter. In all of the weeks they had been skipping class,

They'd missed information they needed to pass. So borrowing pages of missed notes from friends, They started the chore of cramming again. In reading assignments they were so far behind They had to read whole textbooks in a few days time. And throughout the finals they went to exams, Their heads filled with information

Student Poll

What do students want for Christmas? By Susie Goddard and Nancy Broyles What does the average student at CSU want for Christmas? Jennifer Schmidt said, "I would like a date with the guy in my philosophy class." "My own McDonald's franchise," said Jerry Zoeller. Blaine Lewis stated, "I want Mr. Walmart to adopt me." Drew Troyer wanted, "The movie

rights to the Indian Reservation's struggle for Bingo independence." "Two wet tunes radios so I'll have stereo in the shower with Cybill Shephard," stated Brent Parrett. Nicole Sawyer wanted, "A Snugglebunny." Scott Wheeler said, "A finished 4.0 transcript and a job." "Money, and a weekend with Jon Bon Jovi," said Kari Conrad.

Lisa Vandiver would like, "A trip to the Carribean, and a couch." "I want Matt, in the bell of a new bari saxophone," said Gina Machnicz. "I want to marry U2's drummer and live happily ever after," said Michele Fletcher. Paula Busby stated, "I just want to survive my social problems class." Mike Myers wanted, "A new car stereo."


Dimension News: World, state and local Priest said Santa's dead

In an attempt to emphasize the spiritual side of Christmas, a reverand in New Jersey told children that Santa Claus was dead and that Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer didn't exist, a church official said. The Rev. Romano Feraro of the St. John Vianney Roman Catholic Church also told children that parents who tell their children Santa exists are liars. During a question and answer session after the sermon, one child asked if this meant all parents were liars. Feraro answered yes and told the children if they pretended to be asleep, they would catch their parents putting gifts under the tree on Christmas Eve. Many of the parents are upset with Feraro for taking away a special meaning of Christmas away from their children. Feraro could not be reached for comment.

Governors to discuss oil Oklahoma Governor-elect Henry Bellmon said he will join other state governors to ask President Reagan to support an oil import fee. During a breakfast speech to an 150 person chamber meeting, Bellmon said he felt the president was inviting the governors to Washington to discuss Iran and peddling arms to Nicaragua. As far as Oklahoma's involvement in the oil import fee, Bellmon said it is needed both for the economic and national security of the state. Rep. Bell Brewster, DMarietta, said the fee would mean immediate gratifcation to Oklahoma's treasury. At the close of the meeting, incumbent Gov. George Nigh bid his farewell as Bellmon initiated the framework for his business agenda.

Teen-age pregnancy up In a two-year study of teen-age pregnancy by the National Academy Sciences, it was released that an Ameican teenager gives birth to a baby every two minutes, part of a pattern of unintended pregnancies and births that can best be countered with aggressiive use of sex education and contraceptives. The report concluded that more programs are needed to push diligent contraceptive use and education to decrease pregnancy and abortion among youths. Two major emphasis were on pregnancy prevention, including widespread availability of birth control pills and condoms and the invent of programs to encourage youths to delay sexual intitiation and assume more responsibility for their actions.

Boy killed by train A 16-year-old New Jersey boy was killed by a commuter train Monday evening, when it hit him from behind as he was walking along the tracks. Police said the boy was was wearing a cassette headset, which probably muffled the sound of the train's whistle.

Tulsa without lights The city of Tulsa is without lights this Christmas, due to a hailstorm which destroyed the lights last season, a city official said. The downtowm merchants don't have the money to replace the lights this year, and the city has no funds to help out, Tulsa Street Commissioner J.D. Metcalfe said. Although the city will be without lights this season, the merchants are working on a plan to have lights for Christmas 1987. Focus for this Christmas will be a Christmas night parade and other activities downtown.

City has room for trash Although several American cities are projected to fill their limit in landfills with garbage within the next five years, Edmond will not have a problem, assistant city manager Jim Couch said. Couch said the city does not have any landfill space to run out of because Edmond's trash is taken to Waste Management of Oklahoma City, a private landfill firm.

Readers' forum West Hall student disappointed in assistant, head resident's job To the editor: Who is "in charge" of the dorms? Well, it seems no one wants to take the credit when problems arise. There are still problems needing attention in West Hall. Apparently not one "college authority" wants to assist in helping residents resolve the conflicts. The problems and attitudes we have to face everyday are very unnecessary and we feel they need much attention. The head resident and assistant head resident seem to think "do as I say, not as I do," is the

golden rule. But first off, we the residents are not here for them to tell us what to do! Taking on a leadership position means having to be an adult and role model. Apparently maturity is not on the list of requirements for the position of head resident or assistant head resident! What mature mind would think of sitting in "hidden places" (the parking lot by the softball field), waiting to catch some "bad little girl" doing someting wrong? But whose business is it of ours (the residents)?

They take it upon themselves to know all of our business and then when confronted with something they are doing wrong, (such as bringing their boyfriends into the building after visiting hours), they have the audacity to say, "What I do is my business!" The fact here is, anything that goes on outside of the rooms (in the hall, for example) is everyone's business! A major objective of the residents in the dorm is to make it a better place to live, but discouragement is all that has been seen by the residents who have put forth the efforts to try to rectify the situations which no "college authority" wants to take charge of. The only possible solution the residents have agreed on is not only to install a new head resident and assistant head resident, but also to create much harsher requirements for the "hopefully soon open" positions.

From Staff Reports Members of the Edmond Noon Kiwanis Club are spearheading a drive to raise $3,000 for Laura Thompson, a CSU student who was seriously injured in an auto accident when she was a student at Edmond High School. The Noon Kiwanis Club has donated $500 as a part of its "Make a Miracle Happen" major emphasis program. "Laura, who was paralyzed from the neck down in her accident, needs a new lift on her van and several other items such as a page turner and a voice activated telephone," said Dr. Bill Fisher, chairman of the major emphasis program.

"We are hoping that the citizens of Edmond will help us in this worthy effort to raise at least the $3,000 for the lift," Fisher said. Thompson currently has a lift on the family van, but it is unreliable and is of a vintage that is hard to repair, Fisher explained. "She is a lovely, warm person and the Noon Kiwanis Club of Edmond is eager to help her reach her goal of earning a college degree and some measure of independence," said Fisher. Contributions to the fund may be sent to the Kiwanis Club at P.O. Box 251, Edmond, Okla. 73083.

Experts give tips for safe holiday Cancelled class notices Laura Thompson.

By Chris Sommer Safety is an important issue to consider during the holidays. During this holiday season everyone is sure to have a better time if a few simple safety precautions are taken. Law enforcement agencies discourage leaving Christmas packages in the back seat of unattended cars. They suggest locking the packages in the trunk. Do not leave Christmas trees plugged in when leaving the house. It takes less than a minute for a dry pine tree to burn. Kevin Hunter, former fire fighter for the U.S. Forest Department, said that a pine tree will literally explode into flames when exposed to enough

heat Many.cab companies offer free rides home from bars. KATT radio station also offers this service on New Year's Eve. Some other precautions to observe while celebrating the holidays are offered by Dr. Robert A. Hummel, ophthalmologist and cataract specialist. Hummel said a flying cork from a champagne bottle is a potentially blinding weapon. It is small enough, he said, to pass by the facial bones that usually protect the eyes from larger objects. Besides surface damage, said Hummel, the force of a flying cork is enough to cause interior damage to the eye.

When winter weather hits Oklahoma, many students call CSU to find out if classes have been cancelled, said Linda Jones, director of communications and publications. "It is impossible for us to know very far in advance if classes will be cancelled due to foul weather," Jones said. "Our large number of commuters makes the decision even more difficult. "However, once the decision is made, whether for rain, snow or frigid wind chill, we make every effort to inform the students as soon as possible." When President Bill Lillard

makes the decision to cancel classes, all Oklahoma City radio and television stations are notified immediately, Jones explained. "We have a system in our office whereby we inform campus security, the alumni office, which is in charge of the campus electronic message signs and all area media," said Jones. "We ask that students stay tuned to radio or television and not tie up university phone lines when the weather turns bad," added Jones. "It puts an unnecessary burden on our operators and ties up the lines in case of an emergency."

Secretary retires after 20 years From Staff Reports Bobbie Groves, secretary in the office of academic affairs, retired Dec. 1 after working 20 years on campus. She began her career on July 11, 1966, as the first full-time receptionist for Dr. Bill Fisher in the registrar's office. Five years later, she moved to the office of academic affairs, where she has worked until the present. Groves said many things have changed at CSU since she first began working here. When she

e

first started, enrollment lasted only one week and the students had to go to each seperate building to see if a class was closed. "Every student came through our office. Seeing 8,000 students face to face each semester kept my mind off other things," said Groves. Then the university purchased a computer for use in continuous enrollment, which took place in the ballroom of the University Center. The university later began

its current system of continuous enrollment, which Groves said she finds much easier. "I will definitely miss my friends and associates. I really enjoyed my years at CSU, but I'm really glad to have time to play," Groves said. Groves and her husband, Marvin, are planning a trip to Canada to fish, and she said she is going to spend her new freedom "having fun, enjoying life."

Redskins saddle Bronchos By John Helsley

Sports Editor Southern Nazarene popped in 10-of-15 three-point field goals to outgun CSU 68-56 Tuesday night in Bethany. The three-pointers proved to be the deciding factor in the game, as the Redskins could only hit on 14-of-40 shots from closer range. "The big thing in the game was their ability to hit three-pointers," said CSU coach Buddy Armstrong. "They actually shot better from the three-point range than from inside. That's incredible." CSU, which dropped to 4-7, rallied from deficits throughout the contest, but could never overtake the Redskins, despite climbing within two on several

VISTA occasions. SNU broke open a tight second half as they completed a seven point run with 7:28 to play, which extended their lead to 54-45. The Bronchos could not get closer than seven the rest of the way. Senior forward Mark Martinovich paced the Bronchos with 27 points. Antonio Gibson contributed 10 points and was the game's leading rebounder with seven boards. Freshman guard Reggie Evans also added 10 points

in a reserve role. SNU benefited from balanced scoring as seven different players contributed at least eight points. Danny Johnson led the way with 12 points, Steve Kennedy tallied 11, Dick Balenseifen and Jay Niehues scored 10, Allyn Pepper added nine and Jay Price and David Lumpkins had eight. "They are a very balanced basketball team," Armstrong commented. "As a matter of fact, they had a couple of guys come

Lady Redskins convert free throws into 66-57 win over CSU women By Mary Butler

Student Writer Despite sinking one more field goal than their opponent Tuesday night, the CSU women's basketball squad ended up on the short end of 66-57 contest against the Southern Nazarene Lady Redskins. The difference came at the charity stripe. "We got beat at the free-throw line," said Head Coach John Keely. "We missed seven shots at the line, three of them came on the front end of one-on-ones. That hurts," he added. The Lady Redskins were deadly from the stripe, hitting 80 percent of their chances to outdo the Lady Bronchos 20-9. The SNU barrage of freebies included a sharp

13-out-of-14 performance in the first half. The evenly matched squads swapped buckets for the first 10 minutes of play before Southern Nazarene capitalized on a bundle of CSU fouls to ring up a nine point lead midway through the period. Led by senior forward Melanie Jones, the scrappy Lady Bronchos battled back. Jones rattled off three field goals in less than three minutes to cut the SNU margin to three. Thirty seconds later junior standout LaDonna James rolled in a layup to bring CSU within one, 27-26. The Lady Redskins quickly doused the Central State drive, outscoring them five to one in the final four minutes of the half.

SNU went to the locker room with

a 39-30 lead. The Lady Bronchos equalled the Southern Nazarene scoring effort in the second period, 27-27, but could never recover. SNU led the entire half on their way to the win. Senior Cheri Happe paced CSU totaling 12 points, while Jones turned in another all-around effort, tallying eight points, six rebounds and passing out four assists. James also had a fine outing in adding six points, five assists and managing three steals. The Lady Bronchos season slate slipped to 5-5, but Coach Keely is quick to point out that three of the team's losses came at the hands of top-ranked teams.

of f the bench to lead them in scor-

ing. That kind of balance is the mark of a good team." After shooting a hot 54 percent in the first half, the Bronchos slumped to 36 percent shooting in the final half. Other key statistics had the Bronchos committing 21

turnovers and 17 fouls. "Shooting percentage is a reflection of the other team's defense and our poor shooting in the second half was attributable to their tough defense," said Armstrong. Friday and Saturday, the Bronchos will participate in the Phillips Classic in Enid. CSU will open against Northwestern, a team the Bronchos beat earlier in the season for their first victory. In their second game, the Bronchos will take on Langston, another team they have previously beaten.

Wrestlers scheduled for busy break By John Helsley

Sports Editor Following an excellent performance at the Ft. Hays Open, the CSU wrestling team will try to carry some momentum into the Husker Duals Saturday in Lincoln, Neb. The Husker Duals will be set up in a team tournament format with eight teams forming the bracket. Teams will advance accordingly, whether they win or lose, and each team will wrestle three matches. CSU will open against Nebraska/Omaha at noon Saturday. The other two teams on their side of the bracket are Weber State and the University of Nebraska.

On the other side of the bracket, the NCAA's second ranked team, Iowa State, leads the way as the number one seeded team. Northern Iowa, Northwest Missouri and Athletes in Action make up the remainder of the field. "We've got a tough road this weekend," said Broncho coach David James. "Most of the teams in the tournament have solid programs, and it will be a real test. But we are optimistic and we plan to go wrestle hard." James indicated that 10 wrestlers will make the trip to Lincoln. Shane Foster will go at 118 pounds and surprising freshman Jimmy Filippo will be the 126

pounder. Ranking matches will possibly Curtis Riley at determine who will wrestle at 134, heavyweight.

WHEN IS THE RIGHT TIME TO CALL YOUR BOYFRIEND? a) When the president of Phi Gamma Delta asks you to Saturday night's Fiji Formal. b) After raquetball class, to tell him that the instructor with the Australian accent and those blue eyes did wonders for your serve. c) When you just feel like telling him you miss him after all. Maybe you shouldn't tell him everything that's going on. But if you still care about him, why not call and whisper some sweet things he'll never forget? Like why you call using AT&T Long Distance Service, and why you trust AT&T's high quality service and exceptional value. When you tell him that AT&T gives you immediate credit if you dial a wrong number, he won't be able to get you out of his mind. And telling him you can count on AT&T for clear, long distance connections will drive him crazy. All of which will probably inspire him to drive out for the weekend, giving you an excuse to blow off that silly frat party after all.

pa, Fla. for the Sunshine Open Dec. 28-30. They will follow that with the Sunshine Duals Jan. 2 before finishing the road trip with a double-dual in Tennessee against Tennessee-Chattanooga and Southern Illinois. "We will try to improve our won-loss percentage for some individuals and also get some topthree tournament placings during the trip," James said. James was referring to what his wrestlers needed to do to get qualified for the national tournament. To qualify, a wrestler must have a season winning percentage of at least 66 percent, or have placed in the top three of a qualifying tournament consisting of at least 12 major college teams. "We need to work on conditioning and get some experience for guys who have been injured thus far," James continued. "It's very important that we get our guys in good condition for the second semester stretch. "I've been pleased with some things we've done and with some individuals," the coach said. "We have had some injuries, but so have most teams."

CSU eligible for LSC title From Staff Reports CSU will be eligible to compete for the Lone Star Conference football championship next season following Howard Payne University's withdrawl from the conference. The Bronchos will play in the NCAA Division II conference in 1987 after a long affiliation with the NAIA. CSU had been unable to complete a conference schedule for next season because LSC members East Texas State and Eastern New Mexico already had full schedules; thus, making CSU ineligible for the conference title. With Howard Payne's withdrawl, however, the Bronchos were able to fill their spot on the schedule and will now play all members of the conference. In conference action, the Bronchos will play road games at Abilene Christian, East Texas State and West Texas State and home games against Angelo State, Texas A&I and Eastern New Mexico. CSU also is scheduled to play non-conference road games at Southwest Missouri and Cameron. They are currently working on adding two nonconference opponents to the home schedule.

Christmas Connection works to furnish holiday for needy By Kathy Fletcher

Student Writer Financial difficulty, especially around the Christmas season, is a very real problem for many families in Oklahoma. Despite the bad economic conditions, most families have ample food and clothing. Of course, there are some families who do not. These are the people the Christmas Connection was set up to help. The Christmas

Connection will open their store for 1,500 prescreened needy families Dec. 16 - 20. The R.S. Bowers Estate and Jordan Partnership are allowing the store to be set up in their building at 601 S. Western. The store, which will be decorated for the holidays, will be stocked with merchandise gathered entirely by donations. The five shopping days will give the needy families and the elderly

a chance to shop for warm clothing, toys and food. Each family will receive a Christmas turkey. There will be no charge for any of the items. If you would like to help the needy have a merry Christmas, contact Barbara Fagin, the executive director of Christmas Connection, at 722-3267. Contributions or correspondence should be sent to P.O. Box 77355, Oklahoma City, Okla., 73177.

Flu epidemic expected Continued from page 1

mond area to check for the flu virus, McKee said. "Every time we have a large number of absences reported at schools, we run cultures to check for an outbreak of the virus," McKee said. "It will be a few days before we know for sure, though." McKee said the symptoms of Taiwan Flu are the same as all strains of influenza - "sudden fever, cough, muscle ache and generally not feeling well." "We expect this particular strain to affect only those people age 35 and under," McKee said. "Those over age 35 had exposure to a similar strain in previous years." McKee stressed that influenza

can be a very serious illness, and can lead to complications such as pneumonia or other respiratory infections. She said those at greatest risk are people with respiratory or other health problems, infants and small children. McKee also warned that parents of children under the age of 18 should not give their children products containing aspirin because of the association of aspirin and influenza to Reye's Syndrome, a serious and sometimes fatal disease. The CSU Health Department has the vaccination for the Taiwan Flu available, but McKee warned it takes two weeks before it is effective against the virus.

'Gradebusters' helps with library research By J. Money

Student Writer Help is now available for students who have problems writing term papers and other assignments requiring extensive library work. "Gradebusters" is a tutoring service geared toward helping students with library research for term papers and other related tasks. The service, founded by Gary and Debby Denham, both CSU graduates, does not attempt to do the work for the students. Rather, the student does all the work under the guidance of a tutor, who helps clients find and organize material in the library. The service isn't confined to helping just beginners in the library, however. Gary Denham graduated with a journalism degree, and Debby Denham graduated with degrees in interior design and elementary education. "In addition to the expertise that Gary and I have, we also have other tutors with similar backgrounds to us in other areas of education," said Debby

Denham. Tutoring is available either on campus or in the Denham's home, where Gary, who is currently ill, does his tutoring. The Denhams started the service so Gary would have something to do while laid up, and because Debby loved college and likes to remain involved. "The rates for the tutoring are reasonable, and we take into account that college students are on limited funds," said Debby. "I would be a professional student if we could afford it," she laughed. Debby stressed that the service was open to all students for the term paper aspect, but for tutoring on a specific subject an interview would be conducted for the student's benefit. "We don't want to tutor any subject that we don't feel qualified to tutor, this protects the students," said Debby. There are cards promoting the service posted on bulletin boards around campus, or the service can be reached by calling "Gradebusters" at 843-3359.

Vista spring staff selected The spring 1987 Vista staff was selected Monday by the journalism faculty. Returning as editor is Shannon Blockcolski, a junior newspaper journalism major from Enid.

major from Edmond. Both are new to The Vista staff. John Helsley will work his third semester as sports editor. He is a graduate general journalism major from Del City. Roberta Buchanan, a junior advertising major from Fort Collins, Colo., was selected as advertising manager. J.D. Bergner and Deborah True both will return as The Vista cartoonists.
