What do these six women have in com­mon: Geania Bledsoe, Natalie Davis, Judy Hawthorne, Carla Horton, Robin Shaw and Shannon Shipp?

They are all striving for perfection as they compete for the title of Miss ' Southeastern 1985.

America pageants wins $1,500 just for enter­ing, not including her scholarship already won through her State Pageant.

The reigning Miss Oklahoma, Julie Sundby, has won $60,000 in scholarships over the last fou.r years.

The scholarship given to the Miss Southeastern of 1985 will include: one year of tuition, room, books, board, wardrobe, and the chance to compete in the Miss ·Oklahoma Pageant.

Along with the ·scholarships won by local, state, . and national pageants, many doors are opened for the ladies who win them. Commercials, television and record­ing contracts, magazine covers, and numerous other performances enable these women to get on the road of success.

But what does it take to be a Miss Southeast­ern Oklahoma State University, or a Miss Oklahoma, or even maybe a Miss Am . ? enca.

Here, one must be a full-time student with a GPA of 2.5 or above, must never have been married· or had a marriaQe-. ann&illed, must never have cohabited with a male,

e or

must never have had children or an abortion, and must be willing to compete in the Miss Oklahoma Pageant.

At this point one may be thinking, "Well then, I can qualify easUy!". This may be true; however, the most important question to ask is "Do I have talent?''

There was no brass ring this year, but plenty of recognition for Southeastern Okla­homa State University at the American Col­lege Theatre Festival Competition in Fort Worth.

The SOSU Theatre department brought back a Richard A. Weaver award for ex­cellence plaque, put two student actors .into the quarterfinals for Irene Ryan scholar­ships, and earned judges' praise for its production of ''Crimes of the Heart."

"We won't be going to the national ACtF in W ashinqton, D.C., and we're disappointed about that,,, ••id Di· rector of Theatre Molly Risso. "But survivill9'

state-level competition and getting to go to the reqionals in Fort Worth is quite an accom­plishment." Eight plays were selected from a five-state area for the Fort Worth festival.

Mrs. Risso was especially pleased about Southwest Theatre Conference auditions that took place the day following the week-long ACI'F series of contests, workshops and critiques.

These ofier college and community theatre actors a shot at profes­sional theatre parts,-. and high school stu­dents a chance to

~ audition for acholar­shipa.

Twenty-four of the '

high school qroup made app-l!arances befo..re Southeastern facult~ members.

"But even more en­couraging was the number of theatre people of all ages who -expressed interest in being part of this sum­mer' s · Oklahoma Shakespearean Festi­val," Mrs. Risso said. There were nearly 250.

''There were num­bers of people lining. up

I understand now why they call all newcomers pledg~s. they ~ledge_.. their loyalt , money, and most of all time to· the organizatio .

'2010' ong Yea•·'s .Best MoWes by 'Jay Paul Gumm

Stanley Kubrick's "200 1: A Spate Odys­sey'' is one of the classic films of the 1960's if not of all time. It combined brilliant special effects, a plausible story and masterful direction into a thought provoking ·and beautiful motion picture.

"2010" is all of that and more. Director Peter Hyams (Capri­corn One, Outland) has taken the legacy left by Kubrick and turned it into "samething won­derful." Alth~gh re­luctant at first to follow Kubrick, Hyams dove into "2010" with every­thing he had. He wrote the screenplay, pro­duced, directed, and photographed this modern masterpiece.

Many · critics have noted n8fJatively that "2010" is less cerebral than "2001". It was intended to be that. Both Hyams and author Arthur C. Clarke wanted more adven-ture. •

The year is 2009, and a race is on befween the United States and the Soviet Union to get ·to J upite,t..first to find out what happened to the ill-fated U .S.S. Dis­covery mission. As it ne.ared Jupiter in "2001", the HAL 9000 computer malfunctioned, JciJhng all on board except Commander David Bowman (Keir Dullea) who managed to disconnect HAL. Once Discovery reached Jupiter, Bowman in­vestigated a large monolith between Jupiter and Io exactly like the one found on the Moon, except this one is over two kilo­meters across. The last message from Bowman

was, "My God, it's full of stars!"

As it turns out, the Russians will reach Dis­covery a full year be­fore the Discovery II is ready for launch. The­Russians need our help in reactivating Dis­covery as it is U.S. tenitory. Heywood Floyd (Roy Scheider) seen breifly in "2001" as the chairman of the National Committee on Astronautics convinces the ·President to allow him, Walter / Curnow (John Lithgow) the de­signer of - Discovery, and Dr. Chandra (Bob Balaban) HAL's creator to- go along with the Russians. The final reason for the OK is that Discovery will crash into lo, one of Jupiter's moons, before an American expedition could possibly get there.

So, the Americans are off with the Rus­sians to-answer all the questions left in "200 1", and most of

The direetion is won­derful. Hyams far and away surpasses any of his .. earlier work. The screenplay , was beautifully adapted from Clarke's novel. Some elements were added, and some were removed, which added to the overall en­joyment of the movie.

The performances by Scheider, Wthgow and Balaban were qreat, but make no mistake, Sheider was the star. The Russian actors, with real accents for

The visual effects, supervised by Rich~rd Edlund, who super­vised the effects for the Star Wars movies, are the best I've ever seen. You get the feeling ­throughout the movie that this is happening.

With Strong, Balanc TeaDI Effort Savages · ock Off No. I Reda11en·

The Savages defeated the number one r-anked North­eastern Redmen last Wednesday 66-59. Dennis Rodman led all scoring with 30 points, and pulled down 19 rebounds.

The Savages came into the contest an underdog on their home floor, and the final scor-ed showed that the Savages can never be, considered an underdog in the "snake pit."

The victory over the Redman seemed to bring the entire campus a step closer together. Coming into the game, fans were hesitant to say they were for SOSU, but when leav­ing, few could refrai-q from gloating about it.

When the Savages led 28-20 at the half, one could feel the electricity in the air. You heard talk in the halls of ''can they actually win'' or "we've looked good so far, but can we keep playing well."

At the start of the second half things didn't look good. The Savages lost their lead in the early part of the final period, and with five minutes remaining the game was dead­locked at 50.

The Savages then took control of the game. Darnell Shanklin put the Sava.ges in the lead with a driving layup over the top of two Redmen defenders.

Moments later Shanklin found Myles

With two minutes remaining Northeast­ern called time out following two Rodman free throws in a futile attempt to _ catch the Savages. While a few of the fans were singing "turn out the ligh~' both teams traded buckets and the Sav­ages went on to win 66-59.

Then on Saturday

night, SOSU knocked off Northwestern on the road 62-56 . Again Rodman led all scores with 32 points and 19 rebounds, 11 of which came on the offensive end of the floor.

The victory North­eastern placed the Sav­ages atop the Sempert Ratings (the ratings that decide the place­ment for the .J:)istrict­Tournal!lent at the end of the season). The Savages are now 2-0 in the District and well on their way to the OIC championship. .

Savagettes W ortied ut lnconsistttncy

The Savoqettes lost a close qame to North­eastern 54-51 here Wednesday night. Then on Thursday evening blew past 1 arvis Chriatian 79-53.

Coach Keith noted that the loss to North­eastern was a tough loss for the team. Al­thouqh Keith said, "Northeastern has im­proved over what they have been in the past, our women just didn't play well. This was a game we should have

h " and could ave won .• The following even­

ing, SOSU blew out Jarvis Christian. This game gave the reserves an opportunity to play. Susan James came off the bench and pumped in 13 points and was the leading scorer for the Savagettes. "The Jarvis game showed that we are not consis­tent. This lack of con­sistency has hurl all

year, but that is a sign that we are still young.'' commented Coach Keith.

U the young players come around, the Sav­agettes still have a fine chance at the playoffs. The Lady Savages are currently ranked ninth in the District polls . Since only the top eight teams make the play­offs , the Savagettes must knock off one of the teams above them or hope for some other team to do the job fof them. The Lady Sav­ages have the talent, they just need ~o come of age.

Savagettes' junior varsity defeated Cooke County Junior College hertt last Monday night 73-12, in a game designed to g1v~ the reserves a chance to play .

Coach Marla Smith said, "All the ladies did a fine job, anti thi!!! gave

the women some needed game experi­ence.'' The Savagettes J . V: were led _in scoring by Robin Trueblood with 21 points, Teri Worsham fo llowed closely with 19, while Gina Williams got 12 to her credit.

The 1 .V. game served a valuable pux­pose in giving the reserves a chance to play. One neve• knows when a p layer will be needed to .come off~ the bench that has See:n

The Lady Savages met with the number one ranked South­we.stern Lady Bulldogs last Saturday evening . The 1981-83 NAIA Nationa l Champions defeated the Sav­agettes here last Satur­day evening.

The Bulldogs were led by three time All American and two time NAIA Player of the Year , Kelly Litsch . Southwester n s imply proved to be too much for the Savagetles.

Dennis had two friends from his home town that had his mind practically· made up, until the SOSU coach­ing staff contacted him and asked him to visit the school. of the school and the coaches were a great influence m my

decisions in becoming a Savage." '

When asked what kept him at SOSU this past season, Worm answered, "The school gave me a chance to pla'y, so I thought I owed it to the school to stay.''

To answer what is probably the biggest question in everyone' s mind Rodmaq stated, "I will definitely be returning to SOSU next fall."
