Blood donations needed; AIDS blamed for woes By Debbie Martin The Oklahoma Blood Institute is sponsoring a blood drive on the CSU campus Wednesday and Thursday. Blood donations may be made in the Council Room, 4th floor, at the University Center. Donation hours will be from 9 a.m. to noon and from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. each day. "The Oklahoma Blood Drive at CSU is for the entire campus community," said Stephanie Hill, campus coordinator for the Oklahoma Blood Drive, and the representative for high school/college relations. Hill said that the Oklahoma blood banks have been at a critical low, which she believes is a direct

You're getting sleepy Dr. Roy Bellows proved Thursday evening at the University Center that the mind can do "strange" things when hypnotized. Some of the ways Bellows proved this was by making volunteers believe their shoes were telephones, telling some male volunteer they were go-go dancers, and telling one girl she was stiff as a board, after which Bellows proved by standing on her (below).

result from misinformation on AIDS that is circulating amongst the public. A person cannot contract AIDS from donating blood said Hill. "Three-hundred pints of blood are needed daily," said Karen Rhodes of the Oklahoma Blood institute when she spoke to the Student Senate Sept. 23. CSU has been averaging one hundred and fifty to two hundred pints of blood at past drives. To spark more interest there are many competitions. CSU and the Oklahoma Christian College will be competing against each other this year as they have in the past. CSU won the blood drive competition last spring for the first time.

Ryan: No policy yet to handle AIDS cases By Jennifer Kavanaugh There is no official policy for handling cases of acquired immune deficiency syndrome (AIDS) here on campus, according to Dr. Dudley Ryan, vice president of student services. No cases have been reported on campus as yet and Ryan said he feels confident the Board of Regents of Oklahoma Colleges will work with the Oklahoma State Health Department to for-

mulate a specific policy in the near future. "AIDS is a virus, no different than the flu," said Ryan. "Residents with the flu are made to stay in the Student Health Center until they are no longer contagious." Depending on the State Health Department's recommendations, the public may or may not be notified about AIDS on campus.

when turning in applications last April. "I made two trips to Tulsa to get my escort so we could take the pictures," Selders said, "because it meant so much to both of us to be in the calender. Now I wish it could be erased and redone for the other girls' sake." The problem, according to Dr. Ray Tassin, chairman of the journalism department, apparently involved a lack of time and organization. "The deadline for the

Calendar girl pictures cause flap

"Shock" was the general consensus from six of the twelve 1985-86 CSU calender girls when asked about their first reactions concerning this year's calender. "I thought it could have been a lot better," said Torree Selders, Miss July. "A calender girl is supposed to represent beauty, but the way it came out it didn't flatter the girls at all." Selders, along with 13 other o calender hopefuls, had high hopes

photographs was June 1, but the photographer didn't bring in the photographs until the middle of June." Tassin explained. "When she did bring them in, they were unusable because of technical deficiencies." At this time all the calender girls were called back for weekend retakes. This task fell on the shoulders of Dr. Woody Gaddis, photography instructor. "We were a month late so we asked Dr. Gaddis if he would reshoot the pictures in a few days," Tassin continued. "It was either reshoot or not have the calender and I felt that we should have a calender because not all the pictures were bad." Tassin said that he claims responsibility for the freedom he allowed the student photographer. "I should have monitored her a little closer and that's my fault," he said." The other side of the controversy concerns swimsuits worn by a few of the calender girls for their photographs. "It bothers me about the

photographs, but the dress code was entirely up to the girls," Tassin said. "We try to go by what the AAUW (American Association of University Women) says is proper women's attire for the campus." Miss August, Tohnia Singleton, said her reason for wearing the suit was to repeat the theme of the first picture taken of her. "The first picture was taken by a swimming pool and we were told by the (first) photographer to wear bathing suits," she explained. "So, when we were told that the photograph needed to be taken again, I just thought we were going to do the same thing." Singleton says she refuses to sell the calenders despite the requirement that each calender girl selected sell at least 100 calenders. "I refuse to sell them. They're so disgusting and vulger," she said. "I wish we could have seen the pictures beforehand," she continued. "I would have taken it again. It's not fair to tell someone it's an honor and then humiliate them for the whole year. It

shouldn't be that way." Singleton is not the only calender girl refusing to sell the required 100 calenders. According to Singleton, the sorority Alpha Gamma Delta voted to nix the selling of calenders by their calender girl representative, Tiffany Thomas, Miss November, because they felt that the calenders were "immoral." Some of the calenders girls expressed an understanding for the problems encountered. "I'm dissapointed in the calenders, but I can understand them running out of time because of this girl," said Miss January, Debbie Rector. "It wasn't Gaddis' fault," said Miss March escort, Alan Childers, a photography major. "He (Gaddis) was doing the journalism department a favor. The original photographs were 10 times worse because of the angles they were shot at and the contrast," he continued." Plans next year may call for new sponsors to put out the calendar.

AIDS and 'quarantines' To the editor: People with AIDS need to be quarantined. What started out to be a minor problem has ballooned into a severe and rather bleak situation. Thanks to the gays, more people will die of AIDS this year in the, United States than ever before. People can't even go to the hospital without having fears of contracting AIDS. People in the theatre as well as screen actors are scared out of their wits because there is such a concentration of gays in their industry. Doctors ANIIIIMINE

are warning day-care centers not to accept any child having AIDS under their supervision. Parents in the New York City school system are holding their children out of school because some idiot wants an infected child to feel as if he has a right to have an education despite the health risk to others. All of this is a sign of the times and a sign of the lack of time we have to stop this disease. 'What's terrifying is that doctors aren't totally sure how AIDS is transmitted. In New York City, there have been reported cases that AIDS has been transmitted by mosquitoes. Are you next? Why are we allowing AIDS carriers to mingle with society? It's insane. If you're apathetic about this issue, it may end up killing you. As most people know, most of the AIDS carriers are gay. The gays are responsible for spreading AIDS in this country and I feel that they should pay more consequence than death for this. Far too long we have tolerated homosexuality in this country. We've made it more convenient for them to step out of the closet. This is a terrible mistake on our part. However, we can remedy this situation. We should make homosexuality a capital crime subject to the death penalty. This will not stop homosexual activities, but it will cause many to think very carefully before they pursue a homosexual relationship. Society needs to turn against homosexuals and put an end to so-called "gay rights." The philosophy that homosexuality is a casual sexual preference is no longer socially safe. All gay rights activists should be put behind bars for their contemptible desires. AIDS is a gay disease that they have turned into a social disease that threatens the lives of you and your family. Only action can save us from this disease. Quarantines will work! Craig Dawkins

To the editor: To anyone reading The Edmond Sun, a reader would have gotten the misimpression that the "Sun" was about to make an editorial point concerning the events leading to the cancellation of plans to build a mosque in Edmond. Perhaps the term at which the writers at the "Sun" were trying to clutch was "racism", although such a term may have been too strong a word for so rambling a statement as was made. Perhaps the whole episode is Edmond property owner's way of getting revenge on the Moslems of Beirut. They cannot feel the same hatred because at least they did not try to lob an artillery shell at a Moslem neighborhood; had they allowed one to be built in Edmond. Racism is not a disease, it is a frustration and an inability to deal with differences in other people. Its expressions are many but its impact is always negative. Is it anymore racist to use one's property rights to keep a strange, new religion out of Edmond than it is to leave toys that explode if children in Afghanistan pick them up? Or is it more racist to conduct a bombing campaign in El Salvador against civilians in an attempt to deny a revolution its support than to deny Russian Jews an exit visa to Israel? A hundred years ago the United States experienced an influx of refugees from the "old country" in Europe. They consisted mostly of nationalities and some differing cultures. Racism may not be a proper term for the suffering these people underwent in their transformation to American

society, but the struggle they faced was real. Now the United States faces an influx of refugees from the middle east and southeast Asia; people with cultures as different as their predecessors's were to America 100 years ago. Yet, at some point must these new cultures be assimilated into the diverse American culture; we have a Constitution that demands it and the ideological imperative of fairness that invites it. Assimilation has never meant that a language or a culture is lost. But sticking to old customs in new surroundings is certainly as racist as the problems these new Americans will encounter in an imperfect society as they make America their permenant home. Racial understanding has never been a one-way street and we do not make good deals when we use racism as a trump card.

We have great examples of people who did not use racism and who ignored the racist and cultural barriers to contribute something good and permenant to America, not just as a nation but as a tolerant and fair society; and yet they have cultural backgrounds they can never deny. Martin Luther King died wanting to see racism destroyed in all its ugly forms and he knew that even with the progress he and his movement made, there remained much work to do in the area of civil rights; that the struggle against racism does not reach a certain stage and then just stop. So neither should any other American. Chris Covert

From the editor

Here is the spill on letters to the editor. If you attack a person by name, you better sign the letter and expect to have your name printed at the bottom of the criticism. None of this "name withheld by request" business.

To attack a person and then ask that the name be withheld is a little yellow. The author of the letter on gays on this same page signed the letter, was contacted at his home to verify author authenticity and was asked if he wanted to reconsider his opinion. He replied "no," and asked when he could expect the letter in the paper. I

Ah come on now ,

To the editor: Hey guys, the bickering has been fun to read but let's get off each others back. If I want to read negative trivial trash I'd buy a copy of the Daily Disappointment, opps, I mean Oklahoman. Let's stop cutting each other down and start building up. That way all facets of CSU will excel, not just one or two. Maybe then we'll be known on a wider scope than just the OKC area. Let's get together! Buddy Broncho

don't agree with the opinion, but it is just that — opinion. Another thing — keep letters to the editor short, 200 words is ideal for a letter. And type the thing if at all possible. Stick to the issue at hand. These letters will be printed first. Otherwise keep up the good work. Compared to this time last year, the mail is much more plentiful. Yes, CSU people do have an opinion on issues, and yes they can put it in words.

Letters Letters to the editor are not only welcomed, but encouraged. All letters must be signed, although names will be withheld upon request. Anonymous letters will not be published. Letters must also include the author's address and phone number for verification purposes. The editor -reserves the right to edit in order to fit space limitations and to comply with libel laws. Every effort will be made to preserve the integrity of the letter. Address letter to: Editor, The Vista, 100 N.

CSU student killed CSU freshman, Cindy Emrick, 19, was found shot to death, late Saturday night, in a northwest Oklahoma City apartment, investigators said Sunday. Sgt. Gary James said the bodies of Emrick and Andrew Lee Brusch, 21, were found in a bedroom of an apartment at the Hunters Ridge Apartments, 9211 N. Council Road. The apartment was rented by Brusch and a roommate. James said detectives are working on the theory that Brusch shot Emrick and then shot himself. Both were shot in the head with a small caliber handgun and were dead at the scene. James said the police have no clues to the motive for the killing. Emrick, a graduate of Putnam City North High School, is survived by her parents, Charles and Dorothy Emrick, and two brothers, Russ and Chris. Rosary was held Monday, 6:30 p.m. at the Bill Merritt Chapel, 6201 N.W. 39th. Mass was held, 2:00 p.m. today at Epiphany Servant of the Lord Catholic Church, 7336 W. Britton Rd.

Advanced classes encouraged Oklahoma high schools are being encouraged by state school Superintendent John Folkes to start advanced placement programs in an attempt to keep bright, collegebound students in the state. By offering courses of college-level caliber, more high school students might be inclined college in Oklahoma rather than out of state, Folkes says. Currently, 37 of the 613 Oklahoma school districts have advanced programs sponsored by the College Board in New York. Folkes feels that number should increase. By taking these special advanced programs, high achievement students have a chance to take special tests for which they will be given college credit. Folkes said about 10 percent of Oklahoma's high school seniors, about 2,200 students, take the Scholastic Aptitude Test. These students taking the SAT tend to be the collegebound students, and most attend a university outside of Oklahoma, he said. Under the advanced program, select teachers attend summer institutes at the University of Oklahoma, Oklahoma State University or the University of Tulsa.

Liquor prices rise A rise in liquor prices went into effect today as a result of new federal tax increases. Liquor retailers said these increases also are being cornbined in some instances with new hikes from the manufacturer. National estimates show taxes on liquor will total show about $2 billion over the next three years. The new federal tax varies according to the proof of the liquor, store owner Byron Gambulous said. It roughly equals a $6.34 hike on a case of 100-proof, liter-sized bottles, he said.

Hostages to be seen Some of the six Americans held hostage by Shiite Moslems will be shown to newsmen, their first public appearance since the kidnappings which began in March 1984, a telephone caller claiming to speak for the kidnappers said Sunday. But time is running out for the U.S. government to meet the kidnappers' demands, the caller said. The American hostages are Terry Anderson, The Associated Press' Chief Middle East correspondent; William Buckley, a U.S. Embassy political officer; Peter Kilburn, a librarian at the American University of Beirut; David Jacobsen, director of the university's hospital; Thomas Sutherland, acting dean of agriculture at the university; and the Rev. Lawrence Jenco, a Roman Catholic priest. A news conference would be held to produce the hostages, after which the U.S. government will assume full responsibility for the lives of the hostages, the anonymous caller said. Secretary of State George Shultz said Sunday that he welcomes any release, but he wants all of the hostages alive.

Journalism department receives donation By T.J. Boswell A $1,000 donation is being given to the Central State University journalism department to fund a sequence in business and economic reporting , said Dennie Hall, assistant professor at CSU. The donation, received from the Oklahoma Natural Gas Company, is the second one of this size from ONG to Central State. John Simmons, the manager of publications at ONG, presented the gift to the journalism department. "The journalism department is

very happy to receive an additional $1,000 from ONG for the sequence in business and economic reporting." said Hall, who is in charge of the sequence in business and economic reporting at CSU. "ONG recognizes that it is important to educate reporters who will write about business, labor and industry," Hall stated. "Without a number of similar donations, it would not have been possible for the journalism department to have this sequence."

CSU students receive more parking area

fund the sequence through private donations from various groups and corporations, according to Hall. Hall said he still hopes the University will pick up the sequence so the grant money could be used for other things, such as student scholarships.

Ouse

By Rhonda McMahon Due to an apparent need for more student parking at Central State University, campus security has been forced to make some changes in the designated parking areas, chief of campus security, Bob Roberts said. The Broncho Fieldhouse parking lot has been opened to all students with current parking stickers. This parking lot was formerly designated for C-2 parking. The opening of this lot will not eliminate the parking problem, but should alleviate it, Roberts said.

When the program was started three years ago, the University declined to support the sequence for lack of funds, so the journalism department was forced to

Faculty members attend leadership seminar By: Linda Jones Too many students, parents and educators are measuring the value of a college education by the job skills it can impart, Cornell University President, Dr. Frank Rhodes told faculty members from Oklahoma's public and independent colleges, Tuesday at Central State University. Rhodes addressed the Leadership Development conference for faculty members, one of 18 leadership development seminars to be held over the next three years. The seminars are being sponsored by the Oklahoma Network of Continuing Higher Education. In his remarks, Rhodes said the curriculum at many colleges is "excessively vocational, incoherent and undemanding." But before educators rush to require more liberal arts courses, Rhodes warned, "We must do nothing less than redefine our conception of liberal learning. The liberal arts have become increasingly disengaged from the concerns of humanity."

Second, the narrow departmentalization that has become an obstacle to learning at many colleges must be replaced with interdisciplinary cooperation and a sharing of ideas. Third, we should recognize that courses cannot achieve liberal learning. "Courses do not give coherence. Requirements do not lead to wisdom," he said. Leading discussion groups during the morning and afternoon sessions were Dr. Howard R. Bowen and Dr. Kenneth E. Eble. Bowen is currently a professor of economics and education of Claremont Graduate School, and

Rhodes offered three steps to make a liberal education more vital and relevant.

Eble is a professor of English at the University of Utah. From 1969-1971 he took leave to direct the "Project to Improve College Teaching," co-sponsored by the American Association of University Professors and the Association of American Colleges, and funded by the Carnegie Corporation. The Leadership Development Project of the Continuing Higher Education Program is funded by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, the Noble Foundation, Ardmore, and the Sarkeys Foundation, Norman.

To be meaningful, a liberal education needs to provide at least six skills that are useful in nearly any profession, Rhodes said. Those skills are the ability to communicate with precision and grace, the habit of disciplined inquiry, an understanding of other cultures, an appreciation of the arts, a sense of history and an appreciation of the strengths and limitations of specific disciplines, he said.

First, vocational training on specific tasks should be replaced with professional education that explores not only the "how to," but also the "why" by examining moral choices.

Alumn returns to offer knowledge By Shannon Blockcolski An alumnus of Central State University has returned to offer his knowledge of literature and linguistics as a new member of the English faculty. Mark Lencho received his BA and MA in the English department at CSU, where he also worked as a graduate assistant in 1979. He then spent five years at the University of Wisconsin working in the doctorate program and teaching composition classes. "It seems like the graduate students are older, and there seems to be, especially in the upper division classes, a lot of enthusiasm," Lencho said of his CSU classes. "When I was here, there were seven or eight people in a graduate class, but now there are as many as 25 to 30 students. There seems to be a renewed interest in English studies." Lencho teaches undergraduate courses in English composition and literature survey, as well as graduate courses in the history of English, and structural linguistics. "Linguistics is the scientific study of language concerned with the association of sound with meaning. Basically, that means

linguistics is trying to explain what it is we do when we talk instead of how we should talk," Lencho said. In the area of literature, Lencho's favorite books include the works of Thomas Hardy, William Faulkner and Kurt Vonnegut. Yet the author he respects most is Noam Chomsky, who wrote "Aspects of the Theory of Syntax." "All through my bachelors and master's studies, I worked in traditional literature as well as linguistics. I am trying to see ways linguistics can be used as a tool to illuminate literature," Lencho said. Lencho's hobbies include computer programming, it was his minor at the University of Wisconsin, running every day and playing golf competitively. One of his goals is to write articles for publication and establish himself as a scholar. His research work deals specifically in phonology, which is taking linguistic theories and implementing them. on a computer. He also is working on a manuscript in which he is developing a model for the way people who speak the

While a student at CSU, he studied voice with Dr. Clarence Garder, chairman of the vocal department, and performed in various lead tenor roles for several productions of the music department. "Mr. Williams is an exceptionally fine tenor," said Dr. Garder. "He sings beautifully." Williams, who now resides in Boulder, Colo., where he is a computer specialist, is a graduate of Douglass High School, and the son of Rep. Freddye H. Williams, Oklahoma City, and the late Mr. Williams. Williams studied privately with Mrs. Inez Silberg, Oklahoma City University, and performed in the Oklahoma City Symphony production of Madam Butterfly, Rogoletto, Tosca and Carmen. He has performed with the Boulder Civic Opera, the Rocky Mountain Opera Company, the University of Colorado, Denver Opera Repertory Company, and the Morrison Opera Company. For the past 11 years, he had been conductor of the Boulder Youth Choir. Williams will sing a varied program of operatic arias, popular Italian songs and Negro spirituals. His program will include "Questa o quella" from Verdi's Rigoletto; "Songs on the Death of Children" by Mahler; "Erl Konig" and "Night and Dreams" by Schubert; "the CommanderIn-Chief" from Songs and Dances of Death and "The Flea" both by Mussorgsky. Also, "A Vucchella" by Tosi; "La Danza," by Rossini; "La Fleur" from Bizet's Carmen; "Ah? fuyez, Duce image" from Manon by Massenet and "Torna ai Felici di" from LeVilli, Puccini.

"Kerryn played an almost perfect first set in singles, winning the first three games without losing a point," said CSU tennis coach Frances Baxter. "She only

was injured during the warm-up. "Kerry sprained her ankle during the warm-up and could not play," said Baxter. "We had to default the duel for a lack of players." The Broncho netters evened their season mark at 1-1 Friday with a victory over OBU. CSU split the four singles contests with the Bison, but won both doubles matches for a 4-2 triumph.

Both squads play at Oklahoma City University Wednesday at 1:30 p.m. CSU opened the season against OCU with the Lady Bronchos battling to a tie and the Bronchos falling, 6-3.

Bronchos stay unbeaten as defense shines in win

Central State University relied on a stingy defense as the Bronchos remain undefeated with a lack-luster 10-3 triumph Saturday night over Howard Payne University in Brownwood, Texas. The second-ranked Bronchos, which fell out of the top spot in the NAIA rankings with their 24-24 tie with Abilene Christian last week, may regain the No. 1 title this week when the polls are released late Wednesday. Topranked Central Arkansas was defeated by Northwest Missouri, 31-17, Saturday night. "We had opportunities to score that we didn't take advantage of, but I'm happy we were able to win the game," said CSU head coach Gary Howard. "I still feel the same about Howard Payne. They always play tough. They played us with a lot of emotion and intensity. I give them a lot of credit." Against Howard Payne, the Bronchos scored a touchdown on their very first possession of the game but was held only to a field goal the rest of the way.

The Bronchos opened the game by driving 87 yards in 12 plays with halfback John Sterling scoring on a 35-yard pass from quarterback Glynn Walker. Howard Payne got on the board late in the second period thanks to a CSU miscue. The Yellow Jackets recovered a CSU fumble on the CSU 7-yard line when Aaron Bruner misjudged a punt as the ball bounced off his shoulder pads. But the Broncho defense stiffened as Howard Payne couldn't score on two tries from the CSU 1-yard line. The Yellow Jackets settled for a field goal and it was 7-3 at halftime.

rushing in the game, but the Yellow Jackets were able to pass for 182. CSU rushed for 185 yards in the game, led by tailback Eddie Goodlow with 96 yards on 27 carries. "Our defense played extremely well," said Howard. "It was a total team effort. I think it's good we won a game and our defense was put in the situations they were. We're going to be in those same situations against some people that are a lot better than Howard Payne. "That's nothing against Howard Payne, but we're going to have to know how to play in those situations down the road." The Bronchos, 3-0-1 on the season, will play their first home game of the season Saturday afternoon when they host Angelo State of San Angelo, Texas in a homecoming contest. Angelo State is another NCAA Division II school and a member of the Lone Star Conference.

Mark Monroe booted a 32-yard field goal in the third period after cornerback Glen Townsend, who made his first collegiate start Saturday night, intercepted a Howard Payne pass at the CSU 15 and returned it to the Yellow Jacket 35. The Broncho defense held Howard Payne to just eight yards

Begay places third

CSU harriers nab fourth

Central State University's Nelson Begay was squeezed out by two Kansas State University runners at the finish as the Broncho harrier placed third among 122 entries in the Emporia State Invitational Saturday in Emporia, Kan. Begay, winner of last week's 5-mile run at Oklahoma Christian College, almost captured his second straight victory at Emporia. Begay's time of 26:20.5 over the 5-mile course was just one-half se-

cond behind the winning time. CSU's next highest finisher behind Begay was Steve Heffernan. Heffernan placed 26th in the event with a time of 27:49. CSU finished fourth place as a team in the meet with 134 points. Kansas State won the meet with 28 points, followed by Northwest Missouri with 42 points and Hastings Junior College with 76 points. CSU was the only Oklahoma team entered in the meet. There

were 11 full teams and four partial teams on hand Saturday. "It was good experience for our guys," said CSU cross country coach Paul Parent. "It will probably be the largest field we will run in until the national meet." Parent said the muddy course caused Saturday's times by CSU runners to be slower than in the previous meet. The course was in bad condition because of a high school race that was held before the university contest, he said. "The course was wet, muddy and sloppy," said Parent. "It is hard to evaluate how much time we lost. Other CSU runners that placed in the meet were Rodney Buss, 33rd, 27:59; Willie Curleychief, 36th, 28:07; Sean Smith, 41st, 28:25; Kevin Helton, 53rd, 28:35; Mike Driskill, 64th, 29:11 and Don Novey, 67th, 29:20. "Our overall performance was pretty good," said Parent. "Helton looks like he is beginning to run without any pain on his , Achilles tendon and Curleychief is running strong."
