n the midst of discussion of the terrorist attacks, unpopular opinions have been met with intolerance by those who fully support military action. Some members of the media with opposing views have been silenced. A group of firemen in Florida were suspended for refusing to display American flags on their trucks. Many people believe this is not a good time to speak against the government. When is a better time? Half of our country believes it is

UCO's Bronze Book revamped for 2001 By ANNE SCHLESSELMAN

Staff Writer hanges in the UCO Bronze Book are in the works due to low distribution over the past two years. "If this year doesn't go well, there may not be a Bronze Book anymore," said Sharra Hardy, Bronze Book editor. Since 1997, the yearbook was presented in a magazine style. This year the staff is bringing back the traditional hard cover, 'Hardy said. This year's theme is "Our Wild Style." It will include all this year's activities up until Spring Break of this school year because of the deadline date. The Bronze Book will include senior mug shots, candid pictures of school functions such as Stampede Week, Greek and dorm life. "We are trying to concentrate our efforts on UCO as a school," Hardy said. "We want to capture memories they will be able to treasure for a lifetime."

"There will be three times as many random, on campus pictures," said Jamie Bass, Bronze Book assistant editor. There will also be pictures of the Sept. 11 attack, Hardy said. The staffers of the Bronze Book are also writing feature stories for this year's yearbook. UCO sports and organizations are just a few other topics of the feature stories, Hardy said. The Bronze Book has been published every year since 1913. From 1910 to 1912, the annual issue of The Vista served as the school's yearbook. In 1909, UCO's yearbook, Bowser Towser was named after a cheer, according to UCO archives. This year's issue of the Bronze Book is $15. Since it is a school publication instead of a school organization, the administration subsidizes the remaining cost of the books, Hardy said.

Sports Writer

CO alumni and fans watched Saturday, as the Bronchos attempted to break a five game losing streak and celebrate homecoming with a win, but as luck would have it, the losing streak stayed alive as the Bronchos lost to Texas A&MKingsville 35-21. "We fought hard all day long and didn't make as many mistakes as we have been, but we just couldn't stop 'em when we needed to," UCO coach Gary Howard said. "They had a lot of success running the ball, especially in the second half, and we couldn't get their offense off the field enough." The Bronchos, startiing off well in front of 4,500 roaring Broncho fans, forced the Javelinas to punt on their first two possessions. The Bronchos then scored first, when wide receiver Jace Sherrill crossed the goal line carrying several Javelinas with him. A.J. Haglund kicked in the extra point to put UCO up 7-0. The lead wouldn't last long though as TAMUK came right back, and scored on their next possession.

Senior tailback Greg Briley charges ahead with the ball as the Bronchos fell short of beating Texas A&MKingsville, 35-21.

TAMUK running back Larry Williams bobbled the ball around and finally pulled it in for a threeyard touchdown that led to the 77 tie. After forcing the Bronchos to punt, TAMUK quarterback Abel

Gonzales hit wide receiver Brent Holmes for a 72-yard touchdown to put the Javelinas up 14-7. The Bronchos would have one more chance to score before halftime, when quarterback Brett Manning drove the Bronchos

down field to set up a field goal attempt. However, the attempt failed and the Bronchos trailed at halftime, 14-7. Texas wasted no time in the third-quarter scoring on their first possession to go up 21-7.

The scoring drive should have ended on a punt, but due to a UCO penalty the drive was kept alive allowing the Javelinas to score. UCO responded when Manning hit Brent Ingrain for a 65-yard touchdown. It was Ingram's second touchdown of the year and cut the lead to 21-14. After exchanging punts, TAMUK's quarterback Gonzales scrambled in the end zone from 20 yards out to put the Javelinas up 28-14. Once again UCO struck back, this time Manning found Dee Dee Carter for a 45-yard touch down to put the game within reach, 2821. That proved all for the Bronchos, as the Javelinas dominated the clock with a 66yard scoring drive, while closing the door on the Bronchos hopes of victory 35-21. UCO falls to 1-6 on the season and 0-5 in the Lone Star Conference. Next week the Bronchos travel to Ada to take on East Central University at 2p.m. The Bronchos next home game is scheduled for November 10th against Northeastern State. •

Sequoyah, U.S. students pause activities to pledge allegiance BY DANIEL HOLDGE

Staff Writer

ollowing President Bush's request in his Oct. 11 speech, students from schools across America joined together to cite the Pledge of Allegiance at 1 p.m. Oct. 12. The Sequoyah seventh-grade students stood silent in Gossett Park facing flags their teachers were holding, waiting for the time when they could cite the Pledge of Allegiance with many other students across America.

"We say the Pledge of Allegiance every morning just before first hour anyway, which is pretty neat since some schools don't do that anymore," Harry said. â&#x20AC;˘

"This gives me chills," said Kim Harry, seventh-grade reading and writing teacher just before the kids began. The 120 Sequoyah Middle School students walked from their classrooms to the park, which is just behind Broncho Field. "We were going to the park anyway for our annual team picnic, so the teachers got together and said we would come together and stop for this," Harry said.
