Military nurse offers advice to ROTC, nursing staff

By Italia Carson While on a tour of universities in the Third Region offering ROTC, Maj. Mary E. Gaskill, Chief Nurse from Region Headquarters located in Ft. Riley, Kan., spent Wednesday visiting the Nursing and Military Science Departments at CSU. The purpose of the annual tour, which takes Gaskill to 59 ROTChost universities in an eight-state region, is to provide ROTC cadre, cadets and nursing professors with advice and information about nursing.

"You might say I'm somewhat of a cross-cultural translater," Gaskill explained. "I advise ROTC departments on nursing and nursing departments on ROTC." Gaskill's dual-purpose was fulfilled as CSU ROTC cadets, as well as prospective cadets majoring in nursing, gained valuable advice and information concerning many subjects ranging from Nursing Advanced Camp to the eventual branching into the Army Nursing Corp.

While prospective cadets in-

quired information about ROTC in general, nursing students currently involved in ROTC at CSU asked Gaskill many questions concerning career moves before and after commissioning.

"I present senior students with the options they will have as a graduate as well as advise them on the things they need to know now," Gaskill said. "Nursing is a very strict sequence," she continued, "it takes a special person to do ROTC and nursing because the schedule is so tough. Fortunately, there is a lot of support from the cadre and nursing professors at CSU." ROTC nursing cadets were introduced to the many training schools and camps available to them during their undergraduate years. After a required six-week summer nursing camp, cadets have the chance to learn additional leadership and administrative skills by participating in a three-week program entitled Cadet Troop Leadership Training. CSU cadets were encouraged

by Gaskill to attend as many of these additional training schools as possible in order to further their "clinical expertise".

According to Gaskill, though nursing cadets completing ROTC training and successfully passing their nursing board are guaranteed an active duty commission in the Nursing Corp. branch, this does not guarantee an extended tour in the Army after their initial service obligation.

strongly encouraged to pursue graduate work without personal cost. In addition to an academic education, Army Nurse Corp nurses must be well versed in field nursing tasks as well.

Army nursing is "challenging, rewarding and a lot of work" Gaskill explained. But in the same light she added, "its pretty neat to work with professionals with such diverse backgrounds."

"Competition to stay active duty after the initial tour is tough," Gaskill stressed. "Most nurses eventually go into the civilian world or go into the Reserves because the Army only keeps the cream of the crop. ROTC cadets have the best chance because they are trained to be professionals; they can be an officer and a nurse."

Upholding the nursing motto to "Conserve the Fighting Strength", the Army Nurse Corp stresses continuing education after the initial undergraduate degree, thereby expanding one's medical knowledge. Nurses are

Student Senate officers needed Students wishing to file for Student Senate office may do so until 5 p.m., Sept. 13. Forms can be picked up in the Student Senate office, fourth floor of the University Center. The election of officers by the student body will be Sept. 18.

The Student Senate meets at 12:30 p.m. on Mondays. Any student enrolled in at least 6 hours is eligible to apply for office.

Opinio n Page Problemswith the pay raise To the editor: Recent reports in the media regarding the salary increases Central State University faculty were to receive this school year, after three years of no increases, have been misleading. Increases were reported to be an average of 10 percent — and the highest average salaries in this region. If one examines actual increases by rank and by discipline, however, many of our people are considerably below the national average.

A case in point can be made by comparing the raises received by full professors and associate professors with instructors and assistant professors, with higher ranks receiving 8 or 9 percent increases and lower ranks receiving in excess of 10 percent increases — thus the 10 percent average. Full professors at CSU received an 8 percent increase (or about 2.67 percent per year for three years) which fails to compensate for inflation and cost of living increases the last three years.

According to the 1984-85 "Faculty Salary Survey of Institutions belonging to the National Association of State Universities and Land-Grant Colleges" conducted by the Office of Institutional Research at Oklahoma State University (Feb. 1985 edition) the average salaries for full professors and new assistant professors were as follows: Discipline Full Professors New Asst. Profs.

Computer Science $48,000 $32,887 Business 47,424 33,104 Math 43,787 24,816 Science 42,827 24,226 Education 38,431 22,164 Fine Arts 37,818 21,028 Most full professors with doctorates at CSU earn between $36,000 ana $38,000. Many, as one can see, are $6,000 to $10,000 below this national average.

This disparity of salary figures would seem to communicate that the priorities of those who set salaries at CSU are reversed. Those teachers with the highest levels of education, the greatest amount of experience and the longest terms of service to the university are rewarded with the smallest raises.

Certainly, a university needs to pay competitive salaries at lower ranks to attract good, new people. CSU has always done this. From a budget perspective, it is economical to have a staff loaded with adjunct, instructor and assistant professors. But this managerial philosophy has cost CSU the loss of many capable and competent, more highly educated and experienced people who choose to find positions elsewhere because the top of our scale for full and associate professors is not competitive with state universities, and also because CSU does not respond to changes in market forces with flexibility.

The pay card system provides holding power at CSU only for those in disciplines and ranks where CSU's salaries are above average (e.g. education, liberal arts and special arts and sciences) but it eventually encourages the migration to other, better paying positions for certain other disciplines (e.g. computer science, business, accounting, math and science).

It should be evident, therefore, that reporting of averages is misleading. It would be much more enlightening to see percentages reported by rank and discipline.

From the editor Some people never change their habits. Several calls were placed to administrators during the past few days, but none of them bother to call back.

Everybody knows you're busy this time of year. Who isn't? But, since The Vista is the only medium that addresses this university specifically it makes communication difficult when lines are not open.

One of the phone calls was placed so that the letter to the editor that appears on this page could be rebutted or at least explained by the person responsible for drafting the contracts issued to faculty last week. As it stands now, The Vista has only one faculty member's version.

Maybe The Vista just isn't taken seriously. If that is the case, it's a shame.

So, one more time: Dr. Perry and Mr. Larry Williams would you please return your call.

Deadline imminent.

All together now

By Curtis Killman Editor Drop football!

During the summer a student expressed a desire to cover sports here for The Vista. His interest excited the sports editor for a moment. But the thrill was shortlived when the student said all he was interested in was OU football. Hard to blame him.

Editorial When football officials announced that there would be only three home games this year there were no outcries from fans because there are few fans of CSU football.

They could care less if the team went 9-0 or 0-9. This is a commuter school attended by students who want to escape large classes taught in auditoriums, classes taught by graduate assistants, or higher tuition costs.

Those who think that CSU needs to have a "powerhouse" football team to achieve notority in this worldis living in a dream world. Sandwiched between two other "powerhouse" schools, CSU can not and should not compete for the local sports enthusiast's attention.

Nobody cares. When you get outside the NCAA, all champions are simply legends in their own mind. Here is a test: Name last year's NAIA football champion.

In order to achieve their success, CSU must bypass rules that the rest of the area teams play by — namely an unlimited scholarship perk. Other area universities feel this is such an unfair advantage that they have chose to boycott scheduling any games with CSU. This forces CSU to play many NCAA division II universities. This may the ultimate plan — to move up into the higher bracket. But again, who cares?

Well some members of the Student Senate and Faculty Senate care. Student Senators have been trying for two years to divert money from sports to other interests, such as activities related to instruction, but thus far the attempts have been falling on deaf ears. This is too bad because if administrators refuse to listen to or respond to faculty and student's legitimately manufactored requests, what other choices does that leave the group?

There are other ways CSU could attain a higher prominence. It's called academic scholarship.

At current spending, a student completing the required 124 credit hours needed to graduate from here with a bachelors degree will have personally contributed $276 over the years to CSU sports. That is regardless of whether the student attends the games or not.

How much should be spent on football? Very little. Time to return to the university's mission — serving the students.

Titanic found after 73 years The Titanic, the oceanliner that sunk in 1912, taking over 1500 people to their death, was found Sunday, 500 off Newfoundland.

The 73-year-old wreck appeared to be in superb condition, Robert Ballard, chief scientist of the joint U.S.-French venture said. But Ballard has said any attempt to salvage the wreck would be "ridiculous" and has proposed making it a marine memorial.

The Titanic was supposedly carrying a fortune in passengers' jewels and other valuables in the purser's safe.

Anyone who salvages valuables from an underwater shipwreck can file a claim in admiralty court.

A joint news U.S.-French news conference on the find will be held in Paris and Washington Sept. 13, Shelley Lauzon, the Woods Hole director of public relations said.

OKC now 28th largest city Oklahoma City, once the 31st largest city in the nation in 1982, jumped to 28th largest last year, according to a report released by the city's Research and Economic Development division.

The report showed a drop in residents from 1983 to 1984, but this didn't mean much, Trish Harrington, associate economic analyst with the city said. The 1982 and 1984 figures are the U.S. Census Bureau's estimates and the 1983 figure is provided by the state Employment Security Commission, she said.

Teachers strike in Chicago Teachers in Chicago, as well as Seattle, went on strike Tuesday, one day before the start of scheduled classes.

The Chicago Teachers Union rejected the district's offer of a 3.5 percent salary increase. The union is holding out for a 9 percent raise.

Seattle teachers voted to strike immediately Tuesday, the first day they were due for work. The main issues were class size, extra pay and a personal stipend for materials and supplies.

Jim Hawkins of the city school system had said there would be no attempt to hold classes during the strike.

Discovery makes safe landing The space shuttle Discovery landed safely Tuesday, ending a weeklong, 2.9 million-mile repair mission in space.

The mission had included the "jump start" salvage of the $85 million Syncom 3 satellite and the successful launch of three other satellites.

Syncom 3 was launched from the shuttle last April but failed to activate itself. If the satellite works when it is fired toward a higher orbit next month, it will be the first commercial satellite salvaged in space.

The satellite is owned by Hughes Communications Inc. Jesse Moore, director of NASA's space shuttle program, praised the Discovery crew for performing "like clockwork" in their dramatic repair of the satellite.

Ramirez charged with murder Richard Ramirez was charged with murder and seven other felony counts including burglary, robbery and sexual assault Tuesday.

Ramirez, 25, was arrested in connection with the "Night Stalker" serial slayings that terrorized California. He was charged with the May 14 murder of William Doi, 66, who was shot in the face in his Monterey Park home, and the sexual assault of Doi's wife.

Ramirez waived his right to enter a plea and waived his right to a preliminary hearing in 10 days.

An investigation was continuing into 14 slayings linked to the attacker, said Los Angeles County District Attorney Ira Reiner.

Cabbage patch kid missing The adopted Cabbage Patch Doll of Shana Booth, 6, was reported missing Aug. 24.

The doll was last seen wearing a pink sweater, cabbage patch diaper and a striped receiving blanket.

Computers valued at $120,000 donated to journalism department State-of-the-art computer equipment totaling $120,000 has been donated to the Central State University journalism and advertising departments by the Lawton Constitution and Morning Press.

The equipment will place these departments among the most modern in the nation said advertising director Dr. Robert Hays.

"To my knowledge, Central State is the only school in Oklahoma and one of the few throughout the country with this

kind of computer system," Hays said.

The new Compugraphic AdVantage systems will enable students to create advertisements on a computer terminal rather than build them by hand. Each ad can then be printed with computer precision.

"What takes three hours to do now will take the computer only three minutes to do," Hays said.

"Students will graduate from here with a great advantage over other

students. This will teach them how advertising and newspapers really work."

The system also will have the capability to design an entire newspaper page and will be utilized by the Vista staff.

The new equipment was secured through the efforts of Hays while working in conjunction with the The Lawton Constituion and Morning Press and its editor/publisher Bill Bentley this summer.

Band needs 'opportunity' for success

By Cori Haynes Formula Four has been together five months and has been established in many night clubs throughout the city. The club has appeared at the Samurai, VZD's and Charlie's Chili, among others.

Formula Four has four members, and all have attended Central State University. Chris Hicks, the band's lead guitarist, performs vocals and plays the saxaphone, and has played for CSU's Jazz Ensemble and combo.

He is the son of Dr. Lee Hicks of the Oral Communication department.

Hicks has high hopes for the band, and he commented about his attitude toward his music.

"A musician must always play to his fullest ability. I play for my own self-satisfaction. Our band still has a lot of room to grow," he said.

J.D. Wiggins plays the keyboards and vocals and also does the band's bookings and organizes "gigs." He also played in CSU's Jazz Ensemble and Combo.

Wiggins stated that Formula Four plays much of their own compositions.

"The audience responds well to our originals and our reproductions," Wiggins said.

He remarked that he booked the band so heavily that they were working seven nights a week, but he was more pleased with working a schedule of five to six nights a week now.

Chuck Moore, bass guitar and vocals, and Tom McCain, electric drums, both have the same idea for the band's future. They shared the thought that they were not satisfied with where they were.

"There are doors opening, but the right prospect hasn't been seen," Moore said. McCain added that he could eventually see the band playing world wide.

Formula Four was first introduced to the city when they won first place in the "Battle of the Bands," hosted by The Bowery.

The band is overwhelmed by the public's and audience's response. According to band members, "the future for the band is there—all that's needed is the right opportunity."

KCSC to air mosque discussion

By Kent Anderson The recent discussion of the attempt to build a mosque in Edmond has been the topic of much controversy in central Oklahoma.

Public radio station KCSC-FM 90.1 will air a special half-hour public affairs program entitled "Making Connections" at 9 a.m.

Saturday.

There will be three segments to the program, with guest speakers Dr. Richard Chambers, Dr. Michael Suleiman and Mr. AlHariri.

The purpose of "Making Connections" is to heighten the awareness of Oklahomans to the Arabic and Islamic cultures. The program is not intended to be an editorial on the Edmond mosque issue, but rather a program to educate and inform listeners

111111111.1 1

about the Arabic and Islamic cultures as a whole.

Original funding for the program was provided by the Arts and Humanities Council of Tulsa, the Oklahoma Foundation for the Humanities and the National Endowment for the Arts.

Lady Bronchos return 14

CSU signs softball recruits With the opening of the 1985-86 school year, Dr. Gerry Pinkston, Central State University softball coach, welcomed back 14 players and nearly 20 newcomers, including three prized recruits signed last month.

Vista Sports

Signing letters of intent with the Lady Bronchos were Jane Kajs, Cyndi Short and Misty Bussey. Kajs is transferring from Midwestern University in Wichita Falls, Texas, while Short is a freshman from Putnam City North in Oklahoma City. Bussey is a freshman from Sapulpa.

Kajs, a graduate of Wichita Falls High School, has pitched 10 years in Texas summer leagues, as well as playing some at shortstop and second base. She is a freshman in eligibility (sophomore academically) who throws and bats righthanded.

Short, a third baseman, has played two seasons with the Oklahoma City Dyn-o-mites, which recently finished seventh in the 18 and under national tournament, toured Japan and played in the ASA Junior Olympic National Tournament. She bats and throws righthanded.

Bussey was an All-State outfielder at Sapulpa where she was the centerfielder. She has played 11 years of fast pitch softball and was named to Who's Who Among High School Students in America.

The Lady Bronchos return 14 players from last year's team, including All-American pitcher Gladys Griffin and All-District selections Mary Martin, Dee Gerlach and Carla Hobbs. CSU finished the season with a 28-14 mark and at one time was ranked No. 2 in the country. The No. 2 ranking was the highest ever achieved by a CSU squad and the 28 wins were the most by a Lady Broncho squad in the school's history.

Pinkston is expecting 16 walkons this year in addition to the returnees and three recruits. Only two seniors graduated from last year's Lady Broncho squad, which was ousted from the District 9 playoffs by Northeastern 1-0, in the championship game. The softball season begins in the spring with scrimmages slated for the fall.

CSU faces crucial test

Vista photo by Tom Gilbert

Central State University head coach gives some on site -

instruction of the Broncho offensive unit during an inter-squad scrimmage last Thursday night. The Bronchos open the season this Saturday night against No. 1 ranked Carson-Newman, Tenn., in Morristown, Tenn. CSU is currently ranked No. 5 in the nation.

By Ed Godfrey Central State University kicks off the 1985 football season Saturday night, and it is without doubt the toughest opponent the Bronchos have had for an opener in recent years.

CSU travels to Morristown, Tenn., where the Bronchos will meet two-time defending national champion Carson-Newman Saturday at 7:30 p.m.. CarsonNewman is located in Jefferson City, Tenn., (15 miles southwest of Morristown) but the game is being played in Morristown as part of the Tennessee Sports Festival.

CSU was ranked No. 5 in the country in the pre-season NAIA poll while Carson-Newman Was ranked No. 1. The game is an important one for CSU, which didn't make the playoffs last season despite a 7-3 record.

With six NCAA Division II foes on the rest of the schedule, CSU coach Gary Howard and the rest of the Bronchos know a win over Carson-Newman could mean a lot when the playoff participants are selected at the end of the year.

The eight-highest ranked teams qualify for the NAIA playoffs.

"There is no question about it," said Howard. "There is no doubt that this game could have a lot of influence. I don't know that I like that, but it's there and the results of this game is probably going to tell some things about how either team fits in the NAIA picture."

CSU lost the bulk of its defen-

"We've got our work cut out for us in September. It's possible we would have a real good football team yet it not show up in the win column."

The CSU-Carson-Newman game will be broadcast by KCSCFM 90.1.

Central State University running back Alvin Ross will be on the sidelines for the Bronchos until the dispute over his alleged signing with a sports agent is resolved.

Ross was one of eight former University of Oklahoma athletes accused of signing a sports representation contract with Intersouth Sports Management Corp. of Tulsa. The allegations were made in a lawsuit filed in Tulsa County District Court by Triad Bank of Tulsa against Intersouth.

Ross has denied signing any agreement with Intersouth but CSU athletic director Charles Murdock said Wednesday afternoon Ross would not play Saturday night against Carson-Newman unless it could be positively determined he was eligible according to NAIA rules.

"It's a day to day thing," said Murdock. "We have to have more information. We can't play him until we can determine for sure he is an amateur."

CSU would have to forfeit any game that Ross plays in for the Bronchos if it was later determined that he was not an amateur.
