The Fulbright Program was established in 1946, said Dr. Siegfried E. Heit, UCO Fulbright Program advisor and professor of humanities and philosophy. Heit said Sen. J. William Fulbright, who was a Rhodes Scholar, envisioned the Fulbright program as an opportunity for students from different countries to study abroad. "That way we can create a better understanding among the future younger generations and prevent costly future wars," Heit said. More than 140 countries participate in the Fulbright program, and more than 225,000 people have been awarded Fulbright grants since 1946, Heit said.

LETTERS Reader upset about Bank of America deposit problem
I
have a complaint with Bank of America. I deposited my husband's and my tax return check in the ATM of our local Bank of America (Quail Spring Bank of America, Oklahoma City) on Wednesday, April 10, 2002. I forgot to have him endorse it, so they 'supposedly' sent the check back to us. The thing is, no one ever contacted us and let us know about the situation. It was a good thing that we had not written any checks yet expecting that money to be there. The only way that I found out that the check was taken out of our account for improper endorsement was because I looked at our online banking statement. The check was deposited on Wednesday, April 10, and was `supposedly' mailed back to us on Friday, April 12 from the Oklahoma City Bank of America
ATM department. Well, we live in Oklahoma City, it is Tuesday, April 23 and we have still not received the check. Everyone that we have contacted about this from Bank of America has just given us the run-around. They just keep passing us on to someone else and nothing has been accomplished yet. I even contacted the corporate office and am still waiting on them to call me back. We are upset because we are just waiting on that money, but what upsets us most is the fact that no one ever contacted us — we had to contact them. The fact that they 'supposedly' sent an endorsed check back to us through the mail, not certified, just seems stupid to us. This is very bad customer service and I hope this letter or this incident gets to the correct authorities to
let other people know about our situation with Bank of America. To a big corporation like Bank of America this might not seem like that big of a deal, but my husband and I just graduated from college and are starting out, so this money is a huge deal to us, as it would be to most people. I know that I was wrong for not having him endorse the check also, but they should have contacted us and told us about the situation. I would have taken an hour off of work if I had to go get the check o_ r my husband could have taken off an hour to go sign it. Then we wouldn't even be going through all of this. As soon as this situation gets resolved, if it does, we are switching banks. We are going to find a bank that actually cares about their customers and treats us with respect, preferably a
smaller bank. These big America just because of this companies just don't care about ordeal. Tiffany Cone individual customers because they UCO graduate student have so many. We are also going to tell anyone not to use Bank of

SAVAGE: Winner gives credit for Fulbright award to her mother, professors continued from page 1 Savage said her mother has supported her through school so Savage could work part-time instead of full-time. "I would never have the GPA that I do without her help," Savage said. Savage also credits Nollert and other UCO professors for being great mentors. Nollert encourages students to apply for the various great opportunities available. "It's important for students to take those chances and not already do the de-selecting process themselves," Nollert said. Savage's win puts her among the elite company that includes writers Maya Angelou, Joseph Heller, John Updike, Eudora Welty, and
many national presidents and prime ministers, Heit said. UCO has several faculty members that were past Fulbright winners, including Heit; Dr. David Bass, professor of biology; Dr. Stephen Garrison, chairman of the English department; Dr. Christopher Givan, professor of English; and Dr. Tom L. Trittipo, professor of marketing. The applications for next year's competition will be available in August in Heit's office, Room 205B of the Liberal Arts Building. •

SPORTS Bronchos charge in LSC Tourney BY BRIAN HOSTETLER
Sports Editor
U
CO, the Lone Star Conference North division title holders head into the LSC Championship this weekend poised for a showdown that could possibly pit the Bronchos against the reigning conference champs, Abilene Christian. The Bronchos, ranked No. 2 in Division II ball, gear up for the tournament currently riding an eight-game win streak while boasting an overall record of 42-6. They open against Tarleton State (29-21) in the first round of the double elimination tournament. If pre-season predictions hold up, UCO will face Abilene Christian not once, but twice in the tournament. Many baseball critics will agree that good pitching always beats good hitting. And those factors definitely take precedence when Abilene brings its league leading team batting average of .342
against UCO and their 3.36 ERA. Pitching has been the backbone this season for the Bronchos who are staffed with five quality starters and enough relief to cure any head coaches migraine. Led by LSC north pre-season MVP, Ricky Belk, the Bronchos have continually mowed down opponents. Belk, who is tied for the team lead in losses with a 9-1 record, has a 3.33 ERA. Following Belk is Joe Neal at 5-0 with a 3.61 ERA while leading the team with 69 strikeouts, Kirk Gore at 5-1 with 3.74 ERA, Kyle Honeycutt at 6-1 with a 3.81 ERA and Kyle Dover at 5-1 with a 4.63 ERA. The Bronchos also have an ace in the hole with closer Anthony Reed. Reed, who's been clocked in the mid-90s, has a 1.44 ERA with 9 saves. Maybe his most daunting statistic is that opponents are hitting a dismal .134 off him. The intangibles that just may be the deciding factors in the
UCO/ACU match-up are UCO's hitting and ACU's pitching. UCO carries the edge with a .337 team average and more power than ACU, while Wildcat pitchers have a so-so 4.38 ERA. Obviously, UCO isn't all pitching. Led by bash brothers, Justin Carroll and Bryan Coy who lead the team in almost every offense category, the Bronchos have made it a habit of scoring more runs than needed. Justin Carroll finished the season batting .458 with 12 homers and an .870 slugging. Coy led the team with 14 homers, had a .401 average and led the team with 5 triples and 30 stolen bases. UCO has yet to play Tarleton State or Abilene Christian this season, so to make predictions might seem like going out on a limb. But going out on a limb is this writer's extreme sport. I predict a LSC landslide by the Bronchos giving them momentum towards a possible Division II championship. •

he Bronchos won a triple crown of their own on the diamond instead of the track as they took a three game sweep 3-2, 13-5, and 6-3 against the Southwestern Bulldogs April 21-22. These victories, displaying the stellar pitching and bruising bats commonplace in Bronchos
baseball, lifted UCO to No. 2 in the LSC Division II rankings. "We've had a great year to this point, but there's still a lot of work to be done and our players aren't satisfied yet," stated UCO head coach Wendall Simmons. UCO finished their regular season in fine fashion at 42-6 overall and are set up to enter the post season with both barrels blazing. •

STRANGE STORIES Gay marriage petitioners possibly horsed around with signatures FROM WIRE REPORTS
Associated Press BOSTON (AP) — A judge is being asked to decide if thousands of voters who signed a petition for
a ballot question outlawing gay marriage actually meant to sign an initiative barring the slaughter of horses for human consumption. Lawyers for Save Our Horses said the confusion is responsible

Company, which collected signatures for both petitions, encouraged workers to trick people who wanted to sign the horse question into signing the marriage question. Workers were paid more per signature for the marriage question, the lawyers said. Enough signatures were gathered on the marriage question to get it on the November ballot.

group would have to produce at least 2,574 people to testify that they meant to sign the petition but were tricked into signing the marriage question, Weitzel said. According to the lawsuit, the signature collectors were told to carry a clipboard with a horse logo on top, but with marriage signature sheets underneath. "They were instructed that when a voter indicated an intent to sign (the horse petition) they should partially lift the top pages and have the voter sign on the (marriage petition) instead," the lawsuit said. Celine Sullivan, 55, said that is what happened to her. She was told she was signing the horse question, but discovered later that her signature appeared on the marriage question, she said.

STRANGE: Sadomasochism workshop meets disapproval from legislators, religious groups continued from page 14 "What we have here is completely off the reservation," Republican state Sen. John Loudon told reporters Sunday across the street from a Howard Johnson hotel where "Beat Me in St. Louis" is to run Friday through Sunday. Loudon, 34, said he will introduce a Senate resolution Monday that calls for the state health department and attorney general to investigate the safety and legality of such events. Calling the seminar a "private sex bash," the Southern Baptist Convention said earlier this month that it would cancel reservations with the hotel for its June conference. The Web site of St. Louis Leather & Lace, the "Beat Me in St. Louis" promoter, said the group educates about "free expression of alternative lifestyles and forms of loving." Susan Wright, a National Coalition for Sexual Freedom Foundation spokeswoman, said such conferences are safe, legal expressions of free speech and assembly. She accused critics of "using scare tactics and lies to impose their beliefs on everyone else." "What we're doing is a service _ adults want safe-sex education," said Wright, whose group advises how to stage sex seminars safely and legally.

s springtime rears it's head, everything in Edmond is in bloom. Birds are singing, people are spending more time outdoors, yet another Earth Day has passed, and the fragrance of warm weather fills the air. That is, when it's not masked by that horrible odor outside. Yes, that's right. Edmond stinks. If you haven't noticed it, you are either not paying attention or you should seek medical attention from an ear, nose and throat specialist. For a city that refers to itself as affluent, it's surprising that the citizens here would allow their opulence to be marred by such a dreadful aroma. You may ask what that odor is. I may tell you it's your upper lip. Either way, something is rotten in the state of Oklahoma, and it's not just the sizzling pork smell coming from the capitol building in Oklahoma City. One of the most common scapegoats for that stench is Broncho Lake. Although I'll
readily admit that Broncho Lake gets pretty stagnant during the summer, it just smells like a lake. Lakes contain living organisms and organisms produce bad smells. If you don't believe me, just visit the zoo or a law firm. From the way I see it, Edmond's heavy traffic is probably to blame for the smell. Despite improved exhaust emissions ratings by auto manufacturers, when there's a lot of cars, there's going to be a lot of exhaust odor: This is especially true when a large number of SUVs - which are notorious for burning copious amounts of fuel - are being driven by soccer moms who can't see over the wheel. Don't ask me why, it just is. Which leads me to my next point. Why in the world do we have to have such an ineffective public transit system in Oklahoma? Urban sprawl is not a myth, and it's largely to blame for the impossibility of good public transit here. Sure, we have the Metro Transit bus system, but does it run late at night, or to remote areas? Unfortunately, the answer is no. Until the population of the Oklahoma City metro area decreases significantly, or we get some whiz-bang engineers who can figure out how to make one of those Star Trek transport systems, I fear the smell will linger. Guess I'll have to invest in a gas mask until then. •
