UCOSA recognizes organization despite senator's objections

Senior Kristina Buzzard of Alpha Xi Delta transfers donation money for the Swing-A-Thon, held near Broncho Lake. It started Oct. 23 and continued through the night until 10 a.m. today.

A UCOSA senator opposes making a campus ministry an official organization due to the historical connotations of a word included in its title.

Despite the objection, the Senate overwhelmingly passed the resolution that recognizes Campus Crusade for Christ as an official student organization, which will allow it to receive UCOSA funds, said J.P. Jordan, UCOSA President.

During the meeting, a senator said he personally objected to the use of the word "crusade" in the title. Sen Tyler Tully said Campus Crusade for Christ is a Christian ministry that shares the Gospel message with students on college campuses.

The objecting senator said he generally wasn't opposed to giving recognition to religious organizations. The word "crusade" could offend international and Muslim students and UCO has many of them, he said.

He made reference to the Crusades, which began in the eleventh century. They were a series of military campaigns initiated by European Christians wanting to take the Holy Land from Muslims. The Crusaders sought to gain control of Jerusalem, the birthplace of Jesus.

Tully, the author of the resolution, acknowledged his comments and said it was healthy for student government to openly debate the issue.

Tully said the UCOSA Senate should no discriminate against legitimate controversial groups. He said he would support the Gay Alliance for Tolerance and Equity with the same fervor as he supports Campus Crusade for Christ.

Tully said recognizing Campus Crusade for Christ as an official student organization would be a vote for fairness. At UCO, the organization has been using the less offensive name "Crew," Tully said.

The Senate unanimously approved official recognition for the University Center Activities Board. The legislation awaited the signature of UCOSA President J.P. Jordan, who would then deliver it to Dr. Kathryn Gage's office.

UCAB seeks monetary support Inhofe and Walters debate at town meeting

activity fee to thrive.

"Basically, to obtain money from the student activity fee, UCAB has sent in requests and members of the [student activity fee] board vote on whether or not it is an event that will benefit campus and how much money should be given," said Jordan.

"UCAB is given money event to event," he said.

Member at large Frauna Ridenour said, "I think that acquiring funds through UCOSA instead of Auxiliary Enterprises will help the organization to become more student led instead of Auxiliary led."

UCAB was responsible for events on campus such as The Hanging of the Greens banquet, the Laff Olympics games, the Central Follies talent show, the Mr. UCO pageant, and movie night in the Nigh University.

UCAB has been on campus for at least 30 years, and President Rachel Clarkson said she is deter-

Members of the University Center Activities Board (UCAB) have submitted their constitution and request for funding to UCOSA. UCAB's petition to be a campus recognized organization recently passed senate and was signed by UCOSA President J.P. Jordan.

In order to become official, the bill must be signed by Vice President of Student Affairs Dr. Kathryn Gage.

UCOSA will not be able to allot a budget to UCAB until fall 2003 and there is a chance it may not happen even then.

UCAB previously received funding from Auxiliary Enterprises, which was cut from budget last summer, forcing members of UCAB to reestablish their status on campus and seek temporary means of funding.

Currently, UCAB is depend ing on money from the student

Make a Difference Day impacts campus

by Summer Pratt sp@thevistaonline.com The UCO Volunteer Center will reach , out to the community during "Make a Difference Day" on October 26 from 9 a.m. to noon.

Veronica Pena, coordinator for the Volunteer Center, said so far about 45 UCO students have volunteered to participate, including members from Circle K International, Golden Key Club, Sigma Lambda Gamma and Alpha Tau. Omega.

Pena said volunteers will go to Grace Rescue Mission in Oklahoma City, Golden Age Nursing Home in Guthrie and Saint Ann's Home in Oklahoma City.

At Grace Rescue Mission volunteers will help clean their kitchen, prepare a meal and work in the clothing room, Pena said.

Gerald Lunsford, director of Baptist Mission Center and

Grace Rescue Mission, said the student volunteers are contributing a valuable service to the community.

"They'll probably never know the difference they make in a person's life, but I guarantee they will make a difference," he said.

Pena said the volunteers will give the Golden Age Nursing Home residents a "day of beauty" through painting nails and styling hair. They will also help run a bingo tournament.

Tracy Thornton, activities director at Golden Age Nursing Home, said the residents look forward to seeing new faces during activities like "Make a Difference Day." "We don't have visitors in big groups come real often," she said.

Thornton said the residents love being visited by young people.

Pena said the volunteers will host a bingo tournament at Saint Ann's Home.

Applications for Miss Black UCO are now available.

But that could change if the war against al-Qaida continues indefinitely, or if other unexpected conflicts arise with nations such as North Korea, Walters said.

On the issue of past illegal campaign contributions neither candidate was able to claim moral superiority. In 1990, during the gubernatorial race, the Walters campaign received four illegal checks out of 4,629.

Walters said he accepted responsibility for the matter.

"It's very difficult, frankly, to serve in public office without having some sort of scandal or controversy that erupts because of the responsibilities that we cover."

Walters said Inhofe was charged with a violation in 1986 when he took an illegal $20,000 contribution. The candidates dueled over semantics, arriving at a stalemate.

Walters also compared Inhofe's handling of his family business to the practices of Enron executives.

Inhofe acknowledged the 1986 violation. He said the Federal Election Commission has not cited his campaign for any violations during the current election cycle.

Inhofe said that bipartisan gridlock in Washington orchestrated by Sen. Majority Leader Tom Daschle has delayed badly needed legislation. Inhofe said those wanting change should give Republicans control of the Senate.

"We're gonna change this gridlock," Inhofe said.

Hecklers periodically interrupted the candidates, gathered in the Metro Tech auditorium.

Letter to Editor: " The Vista should print an apology" In an October 10th article, about the UCO football coaching staff needing a good year to quite possibly keep their jobs, The Vista mentioned that Coach Jim Seward "Got the Boot" and was replaced by a younger coach. I'm sitting here wondering where The Vista got the information concerning Coach Seward getting the boot. I'm sure The Vista will fall back on the old fail safe phrase, "Reliable sources...", because it was not mentioned who gave this information.

Well, my source, Coach Seward himself, told me that he got a contract, but he had already made the decision not to return for another year as UCO's Men's Basketball coach. He received his contract at the same time the football coaches got their contracts. Even before the 2001-2002 season started Coach Seward told me that this would be his last year at UCO. Coach Seward came here and turned a good basketball program into a great basketball program.

My Turn Lawyer J. Henderson Political Science and Film Studies Sophomore

Today, my fellow colleagues, we face more injuries to our great depression. I just read about how educators urge the State Regent who got legislative consent to increase our tuition again. They agreed unanimously, since we are experiencing budgetary shortages and a drop of state revenue, that we should pay a third of our tuition costs.

I think their trying to insinuate that it is our fault that the federal government cut millions from their budget, or suggests indirectly, that since they almost went bankrupt, they should wipe out the pockets of the student body as well. With colleges around our state trying to cut classes because they can't pay their part time educators, it's likely that we will be paying more money to take classes with more people.

All of a sudden, every one is going broke, from college institutions to large corporations. It seems like we might as well stay home and teach ourselves since they continue to come up with harsh policies and impose high financial burdens up on us while we continue to live in a slump economy.

For the last 8 years, we as students listen to Oklahoma political leaders and state regents complain how they don't have money to fund programs, yet they still vote themselves pay raises along with Washington politicians, without concern for us getting deeper in debt.

Students, I call for a joint session to rally against all increases of college tuition everywhere in our state and efforts to keep our savings secure and being able to pay for college in general. They should be trying to make aid, finding new ways to prepare us to run our state and country when we go into the professional world, not pandering us like prostitutes.

Our pockets are already thin, enduring the fact we stay in a poor state that can't seem to close the income gap and barely meeting the high costs of living.

In my opinion, an Independent governor is really looking good for the simple fact that we shouldn't be paying too much for college tuition. Just because our state leaders can't balance their budget as they wastefully spend money to harshly sentenced non-criminals inside prison walls, simultaneously bankrupting education.

They continue to put money in their pockets and invest millions into a capital dome or some Indian sculptor up on the State Capitol building.

They can find money for these projects, but can't seem to find money to pay teachers and find ways to bring in revenue so we can see a reduction in tuition cost.

I can write a novel on how backwards Oklahoma is alone, and the reason why it remains industrially underdeveloped but, that may cake years to print inside somebody's factory.

I read about the OU President, David Boren saying, that when they experienced financial shortages before, the only way to make up those shortages was to place high tuition on college students; agreeing with the regents' plans to take money from

He turned out several great players and he accomplished this by his dedication in recruiting and teaching these players the finer fundamental skills of basketball.

In my opinion, The Vista should print an apology to Coach Seward, a coach that committed, not involved, himself to putting the UCO's Men's Basketball program on the Lone Star Conference and NCAA Division II maps.

our cash flow. But after he agreed to that, he helped me understand why OU is one of the best colleges in Oklahoma, with thousands of talented students, but it has a low graduation rate.

No one is passing in class on the football team.

Now we sit here and talk about how good Bob Stoops is as a coach, but if he cannot emphasize to his team the importance of focusing on their grades and winning games together, then the idea of being a good athlete dies out being an under-achiever.

I'm not trying to judge how colleges and universities are run, or how political leaders come up with their senseless policies, But I will say I'm here to bring political correctness. To justify some of the problems we're having in our so-called land of opportunities.

I'm a substitute teacher for Oklahoma City public schools, and every time I hear students brag about how good they are in basketball and football, I tell them straight forward, everybody can't go to the pros. Their education should be their number one priority, because this older generation is making it very hard for our young generation to survive and to pay for higher education.

They're not preparing us for anything but war and high tax dollars, look at us. This is America, a place where we can be learners and educators at the same time, but if we don't have leaders to guide us in that direction, we are just another victim of political ineffectiveness.

I call on the student body to protest against these high fees, being ticketed because we park in the teachers parking lots, trying to find every way they can to rob us because they are experiencing budget cuts. First and foremost, they've got to remember, who the elected officials are the same public officers who impose high taxes up on its people.

Secondly, the same state with their poor ways of creating high paying jobs.

And third, the same lame ducks that pass legislative laws that placed restrictions on economic growth.

There is nothing wrong with our state agencies, institutions, and other important factors of public services they're just poorly managed.

I call for reinvention in government; I call for a special session with the student government of our campus to stand up and speak out on these crooked policies. I urge us to rally as students on this campus to stop the regents and government from burning our bank accounts.

No matter how many increases they impose, or legislation they pass to bring in revenue, if this not incentives to bring big businesses here, trying persistently to boost our economy, than this is just another threat to our chances of staying financially independent.

Too many times our educational goals have been targeted, and we must not let greedy politicians vote themselves high salaries while we go through tremendous crisis and stay economically depressed.

We must stand up and speak out on all governmental wrong doing where-ever we see it, in effort to save our parents and us money. This is Malfeasance, a common example of governmental ignorance, and to add more opinion this issue, this a crooked way ripping off students. They must look for other resources and alternatives, and think heavily on these financial obstacles inflicted on students, and remember, whatever depressed economical disadvantages they face, we as student's face them ten times worst.

Applications due Oct. 25 for Miss Black UCO

by Stephanie Nease sn@thevistaonline. corn

BRIEFS National

Page-Sen said even though equal rights allows women of color in America to enter mainstream pageants, black-only pageants — first organized during times of severe racial restrictions — are an important part of black heritage.

Miss Black UCO 2001 Kimberly Watley, nursing major, spoke to students at an informational meeting and called the pageant "a wonderful experience."

The competition varies year to year, Watley said. In 2001 when she competed, there were five entries, compared with 10 the year before.

Applications are available in Multicultural Student Services, Room 422 of Nigh University Center.

Call 974-5944 for more information.

The deadline for entering the Miss Black UCO 2003 Scholarship Pageant is 5 p.m.

Oct. 25, said multicultural student services coordinator LaKrista Page-Sen. Contestants must be fulltime students at UCO between the ages of 18 and 29, with an overall GPA of 2.5 or better.

Multicultural Student Services and the Black Student Association co-sponsor the pageant, scheduled for Feb. 8, 2003, which awards scholarships to the top three participants.

The first of 12 rehearsals with a choreographer is Nov. 5, with a final dress rehearsal on Feb. 8 before the pageant.

Attendance at all rehearsals is required.

PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) A 15-year-old South Kingstown boy has been charged with raping a 41-year-old woman at knifepoint.

The boy, whose name was not released because of his age, was due to appear Tuesday morning in Washington County Family Court for a hearing on whether he poses a danger to the cornmunity.

Capt. Stephen Baker of the Westerly Police told The Providence Journal that the woman called police early Saturday morning to say that she had been raped in her Westerly home.

The boy was arrested shortly afterward in the same vicinity.

"We feel he targeted this particular victim," Baker said. "We think he knew the victim. We don't believe the victim knew him."

Baker would not say whether the boy had a previous criminal record. He said the boy threatened the woman with the knife, but that she had nol been injured with it. She was treated at Westerly Hospital and released.

The boy has been charged with first-degree sexual assault and assault with a deadly weapon. He is being held at the Rhode Island Training School in Cranston.

Prosecutors will determine whether he can be tried as an adult.

"If he were above 18, he'd be looking at a very lengthy sentence," Baker said.

Free concert featuring original compositions by UCO professor

by Timber Massey tm@thevistaonline.com Dr. Samuel Magrill, music professor and composer-in-residence, will present a free concert at 3 p.m. on Oct. 27 in the UCO Jazz Lab. The .concert, "Music of the Twenty-First Century: Seven Compositions by Samuel Magrill," will showcase Magrill's compositions written in 2001.

"In the preceding four years I had written four operas. In 2001, instead of writing another opera, I wrote 12 opuses for a variety of instruments," Magrill said.

"I decided that if I wasn't going to write another opera then I wanted to write an equivalent mixture of interesting ideas, but take it in a new direction."

The compositions were premiered in Australia, Los Angeles, Tulsa, the National Flute Association Convention in Dallas and the National College Music Society Meeting in Santa Fe. "There has not been a whole lot of new music written yet this century. Most of the music being played is around two or three-hundred-years-old," Magrill said.

Members of the School of Music faculty will perform the compositions. Magrill said he is fortunate to have so many wonderful colleagues to perform the music he writes.

James Klages, music instructor, will direct the UCO trumpet choir in "Fanfare for Peace."

Assistant music professor Dr. Tess Remy-Schumacher and Magrill will perform "Remy 2002." Remy-Schumacher will play the violoncello and Magrill will play the piano.

Remy-Schumacher said, "Dr. Magrill was the first composer to write a piece of music especially for me and I was very excited to play it. It is wonderful to be able to work together with the composer so that you are able to get immediate feedback."

"Remy 2002" holds a personal meaning for Magrill. It was named for his close friend Remy-Schumacher and his dog Remy, who he named after her.

"The composition includes extended cello techniques to depict dog-like sounds," said Magrill.

Associate music professor Dr. Hong Zhu and Magrill will perform "Island of the Dew of God." Zhu will play the violin and Magrill will play the piano.

Music lecturer Pamela Richman and RemySchumacher will perform "Song of Shalom." Richman will sing soprano and Remy-Schmacher will play the violoncello.

"Dr. Magrill's music is very versatile because he is able to write for a number of different instruments and musicians," Remy-Schumacher said.

"It is not only educational, but entertaining as well. When the community gets to know a composer as a person they feel a much greater connection with the music."

Magrill said, "Shalom is the

Four arrested for offering drugs to voters OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) Four Haskell County residents were arrested for allegedly promising drugs to people who would vote for the incumbent candidate in the 2000 sheriff's race.

Eddie Copeman, 50, Charles Copeman Jr., 27, Sammy Dwight Copeman, 31, were arrested Monday for promising

methamphetamine to anyone who voted by absentee ballot for incumbent Sheriff Charles Carry, Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation spokeswoman Kym Koch said.

Carry lost the election.

Romonia Blunt, 28, was also arrested on complaints that she notarized voter affidavits for voters who did not sign the affi-

davits in her presence, as required by law. Blunt is Eddie Copeman's common law wife, authorities said.

The four are charged with one count of conspiracy to cornmit a felony and 15 counts of false notarization of an absentee ballot. The felonies carry a punishment of $1,000 in fines and up to two years in prison.

Independent Richardson reports biggest income OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) Independent candidate Gary Richardson leads Oklahoma's gubernatorial candidates in earnings with $3.8 million in income reported last year.

That's more than 15 times the adjusted gross income that was reported on tax returns by Republican Steve Largent and Democrat Brad Henry.

"I don't mind turning over my tax returns," Richardson said.

"The only problem is people may think I'm crazy running for governor being able to earn that kind of " money.

He said he wants to be governor because it's a way to give back to society.

"I've never been money-driven even though I've made a lot of money,"' Richardson said. "I've been purpose-driven."

Richardson paid $1.2 million: in federal taxes last year.

Richardson made most of his income from his Tulsa law practice and from his real estate holdings that include a theater.

Richardson's income can vary greatly from year to year. Two years ago he and his wife, Sandy, reported making $858,778.

Richardson said he has donated $2.3 million to his own cam-

paign. Sandy Richardson listed her occupation as housewife.

Largent and his wife reported $185,758. Largent reported making $132,355 in salary as a U.S. congressman. The former star receiver for the Seattle Seahawks also made $41,420 from signing cards sought by collectors of football memorabilia. Terry Largent listed her occupation as homemaker.

"I've been blessed beyond my wildest dreams," Largent said.

"No one in my family ever made over $21,000 a year."

Largent lost money on his farm operations near Inola and like many investors last year did not do well with his stocks and investment funds. He made only $19,170 in dividends off his investments in 2001, compared with $60,277 in 2000.

Largent paid $25,562 in federal taxes.

Henry and his wife reported $116,288 in adjusted gross income. He paid $23,626 in taxes.

Henry of Shawnee lists his occupation as attorney rather than state senator. Most of his income, $65,241, came from his law prac-

tice. His wife, Kimberley, is listed as an educator. His Senate salary and her teacher pay totaled $57,029.

"I make a good living off my law practice, but I don't get rich in any respect," Henry said. "I get paid a base salary of $60,000. Not this year, though. I haven't made anything because I haven't been back in the law office during regular business hours since last December."

All three candidates took deductions for charitable gifts.

Richardson and his wife donated $124,624 to various charities including churches. Largent and his wife donated $40,334. Henry and his wife donated $1,167.

For your listening pleasure many different mood changes.

I highly recommend this album to anyone who enjoys unique, enlightening and slightly experimental music. It's worth listening to, which is more than I can say for most music that's been put out in the past few years.

Doves—The Last Broadcast

by Andy Bowman

ab@thevistaonline.com Wilco—Yankee Hotel Foxtrot (2002) Although this album is probably best known. for causing the much talked about battle between Wilco and Reprise Records, it's Yankee Foxtrot Hotel's musical content that deserves publicity.

Many have said this is one of the best albums in recent years, and I agree.

Wilco moved farther away from its alt-country roots to put our this unique, artistic collection of songs. Through the use of various noises that would sound chaotic and annoying when used by most bands, Jeff Tweedy and co. give Yankee Hotel Foxtrot a very "White Album" feel. Everything from strings to piano to electronics are beautifully orchestrated to mix equal parts method and madness. Tweedy's strained vocals keep the songs grounded and add a purely American version of "happy heartbreak" which the Brits seemed to have mastered (and in some cases, overdone) throughout the years. Stirring guitar sounds that go from painful to playful in a matter of seconds make it that much more apparant that the album's greatest strength lies in its ability to stay balanced and on target throughout the

(2002) This U.K. band is one of the heavily Radiohead-influenced acts that came about in the post-O.K. Computer days. Despite their darker, more serious influences, the Doves have found a sunnier side of life on its latest album.

The Doves are less whiny than their Brit-pop counterparts Coldplay and Starsailor. However, the Doves can whine with the best of them if needed, but it seldom is on this record. Their liquid guitar sounds and occasionally wailing synths bring a more triumphant sound to an album that could have easily been sad and mournful (and typical). The majority of this album is upbeat enough to hide a few darker points that more resemble the band's previous album, Lost Souls (which I also recommend). The downside of the Doves' new found happiness is the fact that The Last Broadcast can get a bit sappy at times, overall, it's a very solid album.

Modest Mouse—The Moon & Antarctica (1999)

Dan & Linda Harris Warwick Plaza • 122nd & N. MacArthur 12120 Warwick Dr, Unit 3 Oklahoma City, OK 73162

With this album, the Washington state indie trio Modest Mouse gives hope to all those in search of meaningful rock that goes deeper than pop stars with pretty faces. The Moon & Antarctica is a unique alternative rock album that blends just the right amount of raw emotion and intellectual messages.

Lead singer, Isaac Brock uses an array of vocal effects to give the songs a strangely cosmic yet down-to-earth feel. The entire album has an odd way of being different and "out there" without being too spacey. I'm most impressed with Modest Mouse's ability to sound comforting despite the deep, troubled overtones in their lyrics. They sing about subjects such as hipocrosy, death and the afterlife with subtlety, sincerity and sometimes sarcasm. I can't recall a single song on this album about love or lovers or any of that rubbish, so if you're looking for a feel good album that doesn't require thought...turn on your radio. If you want some music with substance, pick this album and start the revolution.

This is anything but an objective music review. These are simply three cds from my personal collection that I enjoy listening to, and I think you would too. So please, hold off on the hate mail if these happen to be your three least favorite albums of all time.

However, I am very much open to suggestions for future reviews, so if you want to let the rest of UCO know about an album that you like, email me at abowman1975@yahoo.com . Together, perhaps we can battle the forces of bad musical taste and give the kids something to dance to.

TAHLEQUAH , Okla. (AP) More than 9,000 Cherokee Indians have registered to vote in the last four months, a boost that could help Democrats.

The Cherokee Nation held registration drives at tribal offices, health clinics, and hospitals in Claremore and Tahlequah. Tribal officials also are distributing voter guides to get members involved in the Nov. 5 election.

"We want to make sure people understand how many Native American voters there are," tribal spokesman Mike Miller said. "There's 150,000 Cherokees in Oklahoma, and we want to register as many of them as possible."

Most of the voters registered in the tribe's 14-county jurisdiction in northeast Oklahoma, Miller said. The highest concentration of new Cherokee voters is in Adair, Cherokee, Delaware, Mayes and Sequoyah counties, where 21 percent to 44 percent of people claim Cherokee heritage, census figures show.

Tribal leaders did not keep track of party affiliations for the new registered voters, but an examination of records by The Oklahoman shows Democrats could benefit.

New registrations from June through August showed 67 percent of new voters in those five counties registered as Democrats. New voter totals included 767 Democrats, 237 Republicans and 135 independents.

The numbers represent a fraction of the new voters registered by the tribe, however.

Two of the five counties were among the top 10 counties in the state in registering new voters.

Cherokee and Delaware counties were ranked sixth and

W I rld Pinsk

ninth statewide in new voters registered between June and August. Adair County was ranked 12th, even though it is 39th in population.

September and October registration figures were not yet available.

The Cherokee Nation isn't the only American Indian tribe in Oklahoma pushing for new voter registrations.

Chickasaw Nation spokeswoman Robyn Elliot estimated that tribe has registered 1,800 new voters this year. The Chickasaws keep voter registration material at offices in Ada, Ardmore, Duncan, Purcell, Sulphur and Tishomingo, Elliot said.

Neither tribe is endorsing candidates this year, officials said.

The voter guides distributed by the Cherokee Nation include questions posed to county, state and federal candidates on tribal sovereignty, cooperation with tribal governments and tribal economic issues.

Singing in the Rain weathers well through the ages

by Jera Stone js@thevistaoffline.com GRADE: A Must-Have Fifty years ago, Singin' in the Rain was considered the height of MGM musicals of the era. No other movie musicals have been able to achieve the same impact on the audience since.

Warner Brothers released a newly remastered two-disc special edition DVD on Sept. 24 that is as splendid as the movie itself.

The story rakes place in the 1920's Hollywood when the "talkies" are taking over the silent films.

Don Lockwood (the incomparable Gene Kelly, An American in Paris) is the stuntman-turned-matinee idol of silent films looking to achieve success in the talking pictures.

The problem is Don's silent film costar, Lina (Jean Hagen, The Shaggy Dog), a diva who has an annoying voice that grates on everyone's nerves when she talks.

Enters Kathy Selden (Debbie Reynolds, The Unsinkable Molly Brown), the aspiring actress/chorus dancer Don met while he was escaping from his adoring fans. To help Don, Kathy agrees to provide the voice for Lina's onscreen persona in Don's first talking picture — which eventually became a musical.

Singin' in the Rain is such a timeless movie for many reasons. The dance and song numbers are so memorable that even if you haven't seen the movie, you'd probably still be able to hum a few bars of the title song. Donald O'Connor's hilarious "Make `Erri Laugh" is the number that will leave children today stunned and envious.

Kelly and O'Connor's collaboration in "Moses Supposes" shows what great dancers could do with their feet that the rest of us mortals could only dream of doing.

The spectacular "Broadway Melody" number of the filmwithin-the-film will make you miss the good old days of hard work and sweats of the dancers and actors before the computergenerated filmmaking of today.

The direction by Stanley Donen (Charade) and Kelly is fluid and presents the lighthearted script by Bette Comden and

except for a few spots of slight color change on screen. There are no visible scratches and fading of the film as far as I could tell on my ten-year-old 27inch television.

But the real treat is in the extra features for all of you DVD-philes out there.

The first disc includes a feature-length audio commentary by Renolds, O'Connor, Charisse, Donen, Comden, Green, filmmaker Baz Luhrmann (Moulin Rouge) and film historian Rudy Behlmer.

Unlike most commentaries, this one isn't in the scene-specific format but a combination of several interviews spliced together, and it provides a lot of wonderful memories and information.

A feature not listed is the "Singin' Inspiration," which provides a combination of texts and film footages at various points of the film. It's sort of like a variation of the pop-up videos of MTV. The information is interesting but few and far between. Turn the feature on before you start the film and watch for the green movie reel symbols.

Two documentaries are on the second disc.

Tarik Abdullah finished that important time-consuming drive with a 10-yard TD run.

The drive went 80 yards on 10 plays as Abdullah, Derrick Camacho and Jason Phenix ran the ball in the wet, muddy conditions.

The

Enchantment Tour

By Kristen Armstrong, Timber Massey, Fawn Porter and Summer Pratt

UCO writers and photographers spent Fall Break traveling through New Mexico. The trip was sponsored by Dr. Terry Clark, chairman of UCO's journalism department. Dr. Pam Washington, English professor and Dr. Tom Isbill, journalism professor, also accompanied the students.

Students have contributed excerpts from the travel journals they were required to keep as part of the curriculum.

I don't think the sky knows what it wants.

Golden streaks of sunlight do battle with dark lines of rain. The eastern horizon is alive with golden hue, but the western horizon broods with its dark clouds.

Eventually the light will succumb to the darkness and together they will dance and move in perfect rhythm. They will squeeze the life in and out of each other in the form of falling "female" rain.

The dark mountain invites the clouds into its kingdom. The clouds clothe it with a blanket of gray and blue.

Lightening splinters the darkening sky as through the finger of God is reach through the mass, daring anyone to deny his power.

—Fawn Porter

m he view here is breathtaking.

The ancient adobe buildings are a proud testament to the native people who dwelt in these awe-inspiring valleys.

The crisp, clean mountain air feels like pure oxygen into my lungs. The blazing New Mexico

sun on my back sharpens my senses and captivates my thoughts.

I close my eyes and see the people who inhabited these pueblos, hard at work with their daily chores. They are planting fields and tending to livestock, under the same glowing sun.

The sun casts dark shadows onto the rock, bringing it to life with deep form and texture. The landscape is a vivid emerald strewn with saffron cottonwoods and fuchsia wildflowers.

"The Land of Enchantment" now holds a more ardent meaning to me. The souls of the ancient people are alive amongst the ruins and the adobe buildings are one with the natural landscape.

Workshop utilizes mixed mediums

by Kristen Armstrong ka@thevistaonline.com Oklahoma artist Galen Berry will be conducting a workshop on the art of marbling on fabric and paper from 1 to 6 p.m. Oct. 26 and 27 in the weaving lab in the Max Chambers Library basement.

The workshop, sponsored by the Handweavers League of Oklahoma and the Oklahoma Arts Council, is being hosted by the College of Arts, Media and Design.

"This is a hands-on workshop. We will work with simple, traditional designs first and the gradually move' to more detailed work,"said Elia Woods, local artist and workshop coordinator.

Marbling has been around since the Middle Ages. There is some debate over whether it originated in Turkey or Persia, though the earliest pieces of marbled paper are of Turkish origin.

Women's studies develop on campus

by Michael Larson ml@thevistaonline.com

Woods said that marbling is a very easy process.

First, paint is dropped into a gel-like liquid. Then, the paint is spread throughout using a comb.

Finally, paper is cloth is dipped into the liquid.

"No two pieces are ever exactly alike," she said.

Berry is one of the few professional marbling artists in the nation, she said.

"He's one of the best in the country, though he keeps a low profile here in Oklahoma City," she said.

Berry has taught seminars on the art of marbling to thousands of people nationwide, she said.

Kelley Farrar, president of the UCO Art Club said, "This workshop will be a great opportunity for students interested in marbling, but may not know much about it."

The registration fee for this conference is $50, which includes supplies.

For more information, contact Woods at 5243977 or eliawoods@cox.net.

Association for Women's Studies (AWS) student organization will host a luncheon at 12:30 p.m. Oct. 24 in Nigh University Center's Robert S. Kerr Room.

Among guest speakers will be Anita Skeen, poet and professor of Women's Studies at Michigan State University.

The event, which is free for students, will be the AWS's first major event since its founding in 1999.

"The purpose of the event is to get Women Studies students and faculty together, and raise awareness of the program on campus," said Sandra Mayfield, English professor, director of UCO's Women Studies program and advisor to AWS. Anita Skeen has written numerous volumes of poetry and helped found a women's writing series at Wichita State University.

Contributions from the English Department, Information Technology Vice President Cynthia Rolfe and AWS's budget will pay for the event, Mayfield said. Faculty and staff must pay $12 to attend.

Mayfield said if time permits,

"There needs to be a plan before anyone shows up (for a special session)," he said.

The problem is, Hobson said, that the state has about a $200 million budget deficit and only about $36 million available in the rainy day" fund to fill it.

House Speaker Larry Adair, D-Stillwell, agreed.

"No one has suggested a plan.

What they (special session advocates) are talking about it raising money,he said. "That's what this all about."

He pointed out a constitutional amendment adopted by the voters a decade ago requires a three-fourths vote in both houses of the Legislature to approve a tax increase, which most Capitol lawmakers believe is highly unlikely, if not im,possil?le.

—

students and faculty should call 974-5606 to RSVP. Skeen will also perform a poetry reading the evening of Oct. 24 at Full Circle Bookstore in 50 Penn Place, a mall near Northwest Expressway a Pennsylvania Ave, Mayfield said.

E v a Dadlez, professor of philosophy, serves as an advisor to AWS and teaches the capstone course for the Women Studies minor.

She said the organization has in the past invited speakers from National Abortion Rights Action and raised hundreds of dollars last year for Breast Cancer Awareness.

Lawmakers refuse idea of having a special session OKLAHOMA CITY (AP) Despite requests for a special legislative session to deal with budget cuts, top House and Senate leaders seemed to have ruled out that possibility.

The Oklahoma Education Association and other education groups have called attention to the schools' dilemma and raised the possibility of laying off teachers, eliminating bus service, increasing class sizes and eliminating sports, art and music programs.

The group has asked legislators to hold a special session to see how to ease the pinch of budget cuts.

The Oklahoma Public Employees Association, which represents many of the more than 14,000 /-; -;Department , of vkyloyees facing 2 uppaccl rloughs over the next eight months, also is demanding a special session. The group announced Friday that it may seek- a court injunction to stop the furloughs.

While the groups have requested a session to solve the crisis, legislative leaders say there is no plan to solve the crisis, no money to solve it with and no likelihood of raising the revenue needed.

"If the OEA has a plan, I'm open," said Sen. Cal Hobson, DLexington, who will become the Senate pro tern in January

take funds away from other agencies and give it to them.

But he said lawmakers spent a lot of time during the regular session making a decision about where to cut agency budgets in order to make up for a $350 million revenue shortfall. He said he doesn't think a better decision. can be made in special session.

Adair said lawmakers tried to spare education and veterans' programs from reductions as much as possible, although they too had to take some cuts of about 1.5 percent.

Other agencies and programs had their budgets reduced by an average of 5 percent, and some were cut more than 10 percent.

Other states are dealing with similar budget woes.

Dr. Sandra Mayfield Murray said, "College is a great environment for students to become aware of these issues affecting women. We want people to be more aware of the safety programs UCO has taken up, like the Safe Walk program."

The Women Studies Minor program was founded in 1999, and now offers 18 different classes, typically three to six per semester.

AWS holds meetings at 2 p.m. every Monday in Liberal Arts Room 234.

Even then there is no assurance a tax hike would be approved, he said.

The commission, in its study for the Legislature, said the report covers only about 120 deductions that could be traced through the state's tax code. The agency says about 220 other tax breaks are also having a significant, although not quantified, effect on Oklahoma's budget.

Just 10 percent of those revenues given up to tax breaks would have covered the $350 million that last year's budget fell short. State tax collections are also short almost 15 percent this year and all state agencies are looking at cutting services and furloughing employees to make • up the money.

"These didn't get created out of thin air," said state Sen. Cal Hobson said of the exemptions.

"Each one had a purpose. People would say, It's not much,' and in time it would go through. Often they were done for a good reason."

By the 1990s, breaks added up to $370 million. Some show up in the tax commission's report.

"By and large, those were appropriate," Hobson said. "We had some good years and we were in a position to return some of that money. That's done. We're not going to recoup those dollars."

Tax experts and state officials

say the $3.8 billion figure is misleading. Some of those tax breaks cover deductions on individual tax returns, not corporate perks.

While businesses and industry did save $1.3 billion last year in state exemptions, Tony Mastin of the tax commission said such a policy is standard across the nation.

"It's very common in all states," he said. "In fact, I don't know of any state that doesn't have an exemption like that. The idea is that rather than pay tax on everything that goes into making each widget, the tax is paid on the finished product."

Other exemptions apply in certain purchases such as aircraft over $5 million, motor vehicle registration and periodicals and advertising. Oklahomans seem to have no objections to those, Hobson said.

He was on a bipartisan task force that proposed eliminating some of those exemptions while lowering the state's overall tax rate. Hobson said nobody got behind the idea.

"As we identified these various (exemptions), their advocates would appear on the scene and explain why a change would be fatal to their particular enterprise," Hobson said.
