GREEK HOUSING
Construction pushes fraternity to hotel
RACHAEL MONTGOMERYCampus Reporter
An OU fraternity’s members have been living in a hotel for over a month as they await the completion of construction on their house this semester.
With the official completion date of construction on their house being pushed to October, members of the Alpha Tau
Omega fraternity were unable to move into their new house in August. Instead, they are temporarily living at the NCED Conference Center and Hotel off Highway 9.
Although the final completion date is set for sometime in October, members living in the hotel should be able to move in two to four weeks, said Jason Christian, Alpha Tau Omega member and mechanical engineering sophomore.
Members were told just two weeks before school started the move-in date would be pushed back for construction on various parts of housing, such as the parking lot, Christian said. The delayed construction was largely due to rain and
other unforeseen factors.As of today, students have not yet received a set comple-
tion date from the building company. They expected to be out of the hotel by Sept. 15, but due to unforeseen building constraints, their stay will be extended until further notice, hotel general manager Yves Badaroux said.
The hotel has no issue with extending their stay.“We are just playing it by ear,” Badaroux said.The members occupy 50 rooms, but there are more than
50 of them staying at the hotel because some share rooms

Temporary hospital to open in MooreFacilitiy to offer outpatient lab services while new hospital is being built
NORMAN, Okla. (AP) — A temporary hospital build-ing is slated to open this year in the Oklahoma City sub-urb of Moore after a deadly tornado struck the commu-nity’s hospital in May.
Health officials promised to rebuild a permanent hos-pital after demolition crews began tearing down the 45-bed facility and two adjacent medical office buildings in June.
In the meantime, Norman Regional Health System of-ficials said a temporary facility is expected to open in late November or early December, The Norman Transcript reported Saturday.
The emergency and urgent care treatment facility will have CT and X-ray capabilities and a lab. That means outpatient lab services can be performed in Moore while the new hospital is being built.
Joplin, Mo., also set up a temporary hospital after a deadly EF5 tornado hit the town in 2011. The same com-pany that did the work there will lease modular units to the Norman Regional Health System in Oklahoma for two years.
About 170 employees and 30 patients were inside the medical center on May 20 when the deadly twist-er moved from the nearby town of Newcastle toward Moore. Patients, employees and an estimated 300 peo-ple from the community took shelter in the building’s cafeteria on the ground floor of the main building as the tornado raked Moore.
The tornado killed two dozen people and injured

City works to reduce mosquito threatENVIRONMENT
BENNETT HALLCampus Reporter
The City of Norman has a plan to lessen the threat of West Nile Virus this mosquito season after four cases have been confirmed in nearby Oklahoma County.
These numbers are down signifi-cantly from September last year, when there were 40 confirmed cases and two deaths, according to the Oklahoma City-County Health Department.
The numbers are down due to heavy rains in July, that washed away many of the mosquito eggs that typically thrive in shallow standing pools of water, said Stephen Warren, a vector control expert for the City of Norman, leading mosqui-to prevention efforts.
Despite heavy rains washing away many eggs, of the four confirmed cases of West Nile Virus this year, there has been one fatality, proving that even with fewer mosquitoes, the virus is still a threat, Warren said.
Warren said the first step to control
the virus is for Norman residents to call the city with any questions or concerns after receiving bites in or around their homes. City workers will respond by going out and either fogging the area or setting small traps for the mosquitoes.
The chemicals use fog are harmful to humans and the environment, so the city uses this process only when there are 50 or more mosquitoes in an area because a breeding ground is probably nearby, he said.
The city uses less invasive, pesti-cide-filled mosquito traps on a day-to-day basis, Warren said. The traps are small, inexpensive and harmless to hu-mans, he said.
These traps are activated in the eve-ning and attract mosquitoes with a light bulb, after which the mosquitoes are blown into a jar filled with pesticide, Warren said.
Residents concerned with mosqui-toes in their area can call the city and request that a trap be set up and main-tained every few days by the pest pre-vention team, he said.
Citizens can get a trap set up on their property with or without reports of mosquito activity. This serves as a
pre-emptive system to keep the mos-quitoes away, he said.
The City of Norman has been using these mosquito prevention tactics for the past 30 years and is pleased with the results, Warren said.
Along with prevention measures like traps and aerosol fogging, there are the even more simple measures to abide by, he said.
Residents should always use normal precautions, like making full use of bug sprays containing the effective chemical DEET, wearing long sleeves and pants when working outside and minimiz-ing standing water in pots and low lying areas around their home, Warren said.

said the front desk super-visor Bailey Carter. Not all boys that will be living in the house are staying at the hotel, however.
The price of staying at the hotel is covered by the dues that members would have to pay to live in the ATO house. The group also gets a discounted weekly rate because of the number of rooms they have booked, Carter said.
Members staying at the hotel are welcome to use all the facilities and services offered, including a food court, fitness center, gym, pool and restaurant.
“ I t ’ s a n i c e h o t e l ,” Christian said.
Although it is not on be-half of the hotel, the mem-bers are offered transporta-tion and a stipend for food expenses from the fraterni-ty, Christian said.

ambitions of reaching a wider audience ever since, said one of the creators Arthur Dixon, a history and Spanish junior.
“Discussing writing informally benefits students,” Dixon said.
Thus, Honors Writing Groups will meet over a meal or hang out while casually talking about writing, he said. The other aspect of the groups will be electronic, using Google Documents to share writing and allow other members to provide comments.
The groups will be organized by purpose of writing, of-fering help with everything from expository essays to lab reports, he said. Members can reveal their areas of writ-ing proficiency and provide assistance to each other accordingly.
Though affiliated with the Honors College, any student can join the groups, Dixon said. The group had an infor-mational meeting on Thursday and will schedule formal meeting times as more students show interest.

The past few weeks have taught us all a valuable lesson: change is not always for the better. I am speaking, of course, of the new direction of the
Pride of Oklahoma under Pride director Justin Stolarik. It would be easy to take this letter in the usual direction. Yes, Stolarik is not qualified. Yes, he did use the Wisconsin W’s in our home opener against Louisiana Monroe. Yes, his drills and song selections are incredibly dull.
Unfortunately, there are no signs from the university that changes will be made. If we have to live with Stolarik, we might as well get the most out of him. A new band di-rector can bring lots of change, and it does not all have to be bad.
A few semesters ago, a woman in my Diversity in the Workplace class told her story of trying out for drum major in the Pride. I personally cannot confirm or deny her story, but the impression she was given was that re-gardless of her skill or merit, Oklahoma was simply not ready for a female drum major.
This is now my fourth football season at OU and my fourth season to watch a male run out on the field in the iconic strut that Sooners have come to know and love over the years. I am not writing this to attack any drum majors, past or present. I simply have not found any evidence of past female drum majors at OU. That is a problem. Maybe there is one on the books but not in recent history.
Surely one female would have been the drum major in my time here. Many would try to write it off as a co-incidence, not discrimination of any sort. That is sim-ply naïve, and it is time we changed the culture here in Oklahoma. It is time we encouraged more female leader-ship at this university. This should not be an issue in 2013.
I am not saying we should just select a woman as the next drum major. What I am saying is that when the right woman comes along, we should make sure that she gets the position on her own merit and that discrimination is not standing in her way.
So Dr. Stolarik, are you listening? You do have the abil-ity to make great changes, and if you are here for the long haul, why not make this one of them?
John Putnam is a public relations and human relations senior.
Our View: We join the others who want to see our marching band performances reflect tradition, but we don’t agree that being silent after band performances is the right way to influence that change.
Students and guests were welcomed to last week-end’s game by more than the ticket scanners; they were greeted with various chalked messages lining the sidewalks. Some were etched, “save the pride,” while others said, “bring tradition back.” No matter how each square of pavement’s words were strung, every message encouraged one common, specific thing — be silent.
In an effort to extend the message of disappoint-ment toward this year’s new Pride of Oklahoma di-rector and the marching band’s lack of enthusiastic presentations, anonymous people chalked these messages across the north part of campus to moti-vate the lively crowd to fall silent instead of to ap-plaud the Pride’s performances. We share the same desire to bring tradition back and to witness the Pride perform in a similar manner it used to, but we don’t agree with the concept of silence to create this change.
Sometimes, silence is appropriate, but not in this case. By smothering the atmosphere with a wave of quietness after their performance, it embarrass-es more than just the new director; it embarrasses every one of the Pride students who worked hard to perform for the crowd, for their team and for their school. Decisions and calls for change need to be orchestrated in a way that minimizes any negative aftermath on those who don’t de-serve it.
While many people across campus are advocating for the new director to resort back to the Pride’s traditional ways, we need to keep in mind how our actions as a student body affect everyone.
We don’t see how silence is a powerful stance — we want our opinions, and your opinions, to be heard. If you want to see the Pride director alter-nate how he leads and strategizes formations and songs for each game, instead of just complaining, create suggestions and write letters respectfully.
Think about it; you can go back in time and look

Silence isn’t always golden — Applaud for Pride
The beauty of the South Oval is con-sidered a keynote
location on OU’s campus. The lush colors of the flow-erbeds and the monumental statues you see as you walk by carry the distinguished sight of Bizzell Memorial Library in the distance.
Additionally, the South Oval remains one of the busiest locations on campus as students attend class, ride bikes and walk to and from the dorms. As a fundamental portion of the university’s layout, it is key that we continuously be on the lookout for ways to improve such areas.
But what can be considered a useful change?Earth Rebirth, an environmental student organization on
campus, asked this question at one of its recent meetings. Recommended changes included basic implementations such as more responsible and efficient sprinkler systems. There have been far too many incidenc-es of sprinklers spraying onto the side-walks, streets and parking lots.
Although areas like the National Weather Center keep detailed records of water consumption on the lawn, other areas of campus neglect to do the same — like the football practice facility. It is one thing to use excess amounts of water and cloud the transparency of that use throughout the full scope of cam-pus, but we should attempt to put that water on things that count — the cement paths not being one of them.
Other ideas that were proposed involved competitive green roof projects between the buildings of the South Oval. This could stimulate the popularity of an already experi-mental idea at the National Weather Center while giving more opportunity for students to head, maintain and en-hance those projects in an exciting, productive spirit. The energy use of the South Oval would be decreased signifi-cantly from the projects and could be a school-wide effort. Furthermore, OU can catch up to some of the incredible
sustainability efforts being conducted at OSU, like the student-run sustainable community.
While OU should be given credit for its attempts to im-prove the oval, the recent changes to the Van Vleet Oval roadway may not have been the best decision.
First, commuters have a much more difficult time get-ting to campus by shuttle. Shuttles once followed the Van Vleet Oval north around to the stadium before re-emerg-ing on the intersection of Asp Avenue and Lindsey Street.
Now, students riding apartment shuttles are being forced to get off at either the Lloyd Noble Center or the large parking lot near the duck pond. Those who get off at Lloyd Noble must take an additional shuttle to the main campus, while the parking lots now have more conges-tion than ever from shuttle traffic.
Public and commuter transportation should be a main priority on campus, the new turn-around design of the Van Vleet Oval and Asp Avenue by the stadium have not provided any relief to the transportation system.
As for foot traffic, the previous system was not a nui-sance to walk through, nor did it halt too much traffic.
Now, there is an unutilized Van Vleet Oval roadway and a mix of pedestri-ans and shuttles near the stadium. Bigger bike lanes would have been a better consideration, but hopefully the kinks of this new transportation route work itself out.
The students want to feel as if we are progressive — moving forward. From my discussions, the additions of more roadwork did not spark that notion. However the idea of solar
lighting in the oval, food on the roofs and student partici-pation in the transition as a whole did.
President Boren — give OU students a chance to con-tribute to the benefits we seek instead of letting us wait to bear the consequences of university decisions. I assure you, the university will not be disappointed. If you are looking for suggestions, the rest of the student body and I are happy to help!

at any leader who wanted to promote change; they attempted to do it peacefully and respectfully, and after some time, most succeeded.
We don’t like the Pride’s recent performances as much as we enjoyed the previous years’, but while we are on the lookout for our band’s progression back to tradition, keep in mind that change isn’t always a bad thing.
Sometimes, it’s a matter of perspective. For example — do you remember when Facebook first came out? It became more
and more popular during its first couple of years, and eventually, almost everyone created an ac-count. It was great. Then one year, Facebook had this idea to change the website layout, and people weren’t satisfied. They wanted to switch back to the old version, because it was something they were used to, something they knew and understood.
After people got used to the newer (and newest) Facebook layouts, they eventually preferred them to the older versions, and now most of us probably wouldn’t want to go back.
Facebook and the Pride of Oklahoma are two completely different things, but the same objective presents itself. Sometimes, when we are open to change and give it some time, we can develop an appreciation for it — food for thought.
In the end, taking any action that could poten-tially disrespect the hardworking Pride students is unacceptable and undeserved. Students shouldn’t support any act that directly or indirectly disparag-es other students. It’s not a behavior that proudly reflects our Sooner spirit. We’re proud of the Pride. Band members, we guarantee you’ll hear us cheer.

“Dracula” (airs Oct. 25 at 9 p.m. Central): Starring Jonathan Rhys Meyers, this drama reinvents the infa-mous blood-sucker while retaining the Victorian time period with the addition of a revenge-themed twist.
Why It Looks Promising: Anyone who has seen “The Tudors” knows Meyers can play misunderstood mon-sters in his sleep, and the trailer makes it seem like “Dracula” is no exception. Plus, it’ll be fun to see how the classic story of Dracula
plays out in a televised format.For Fans Of: “Hannibal,” “The Tudors,” “The Walking
Dead”
“Hostages” (airs Sept. 23 at 9 p.m. Central): Toni Colette and Dylan McDermott star in this drama about a family who is taken hostage by terror-ists who order the surgeon mother set to operate on the president to assassinate him in the process.
Why It Looks Promising: The premise is intriguing enough, but add to that the impeccable Toni Colette and McDermott as a rogue FBI agent out to kill the president, and this looks
like it could be one of the best new dramas of the fall.For Fans Of: “Homeland,” “The Americans,” “Person of
Interest”
“Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D” (airs Sept. 24 at 7 p.m. Central): A spinoff of “The Avengers,” “S.H.I.E.L.D.” sees the return of Agent Coulson (Clark Gregg) as-sembling a group of top-se-cret agents to help protect the earth from an array of dangers.
Why It Looks Promising: This one has the backing of “The Avengers” franchise and a huge push of credibility in the form of series creator — and “God of The Nerds” — Joss Whedon.
For Fans Of: Basically any Marvel superhero movie.
“The Originals” (airs Oct. 8 at 7 p.m. Central): This spin-off of “The Vampire Diaries” follows the original vampire family, mixing familiar faces (Joseph Morgan’s Klaus, Claire Holt’s Rebekah) and new ones (Phoebe Tonkin’s Hayley, Leah Pipe’s Camille).
Why It Looks Promising: “The Vampire Diaries” has been get-ting a little convoluted and re-petitive as of late, and a change of pace and some fresh faces could greatly help recharge the franchise. Plus, the New Orleans setting and a fresh dose of my-
thology could make for a fairly interesting watch.For Fans Of: “The Vampire Diaries,” “The Secret Circle,”
“Pretty Little Liars”
“Masters Of Sex” (airs Sept. 29 at 9 p.m. on Showtime): This explicit pe-riod piece revolves around the lives Dr. William Masters and Virginia Johnson, two pioneering researchers of human sexuality.
Why It Looks Promising: Besides starring the mag-nificent Michael Sheen and Lizzy Caplan, the drama deals with themes of betray-al, jealousy, relationships and more set against the sexual revolution. And isn’t it about time that a show
tackles the topic of sex with intelligence?For Fans Of: “Mad Men,” “Boardwalk Empire,” “The
Tudors”

BELLTHROWER?
TIME OUTTAKING IT EASY
EARLY STURGGLES
SHARE THE LOVE
Junior quarterback Blake Bell got the starting nod Saturday and made the most of his opportu-nity. In the midst of his 413 yard outing, he broke the Oklahoma record for most yards by a quarter-back in his first start. The previous record holder? Sam Bradford. Not too bad for a guy most thought could only run the ball. The Belldozer became the Bellthrower. He looked calm and collected in the pocket and handled himself as if it wasn’t his first career start. It looks like all those third-down and goal-line conversions helped Bell in the long run. Bell did so well that coach Bob Stoops announced Bell would start in Oklahoma’s next game against Notre Dame.
Bell’s 413 passing yards came from a collection of receivers. Ten different receivers got their hands on the ball at one point or another. Leading the way was sophomore receiver Sterling Shepard. He had a career high of eight catches for 123 yards and two touchdowns. This was Shepard’s first multi-touchdown game. Also making an appearance was senior receiver Jaz Reynolds. He hauled in an 82-yard catch early in the first quarter. Not only did the catch give Reynolds 1,000 career-receiving yards, it also became Oklahoma’s longest non-scoring re-ception in school history.
In Oklahoma’s 51-20 victory over Tulsa, the Sooner offense looked more traditional than anything the team had used earlier this season. The de-fense, while holding the Golden Hurricane to two touchdowns and a pair of field goals, looked a little more lax. The Sooners are about to take a bye week before heading to Notre Dame, but there are still some major take-aways from Saturday’s game.
Sooners fall to 3-5, lose first home game this season
RYAN GERBOSI Soccer Beat Reporter
What started as a strong weekend for Oklahoma soc-cer quickly turned sour.
The Sooners dominated defensively Friday, beating Oral Roberts 1-0 on a strong showing from the back line. Sunday, however, the de-fense was outplayed and overmatched against North Texas. OU fell to the Mean Green at home 5-0.
The weekend began as well as it could for OU. After 75 minutes of defensively oriented soccer, junior for-ward Daisy Cardona was able to break through and score the only goal of the game. After Jamie Iurato di-rected an incoming cross at the goalkeeper, Cardona was able to push the deflec-tion into the net.
Cardona came into the game as a substitute and wanted to make a mark on the game immediately.
“ My w h o l e m e nt a l i t y going in the second half was that I was going to score,” Cardona said. “I told the other girls that were going in with me that we have to go in and make a difference, and it happened to be me.”
Cardona’s second goal of the season put OU in front
late, but the defensive effort from her teammates won the game for the Sooners. Oral Roberts was unable to put a shot on goal and had only two shots all game.
“We didn’t just drop back, especially when fatigue be-came a factor,” coach Matt Potter said. “We kept our discipline and kept our or-ganization ,and from that, it allowed us to maintain possession.”
While the Oral Roberts game followed Potter’s game plan, Sunday’s effort against North Texas fell far short of expectations.
The trouble started for the Sooners in the 10th minute. After barely missing over the bar on her first shot, UNT forward Amber Haggerty drilled a free kick from the right into the net, giving the Mean Green a lead they
wouldn’t relinquish.The OU defense had a dif-
ficult time handling North Texas star Rachel Holden. The freshman is UNT’s lead-ing scorer this season and added three more to her total against OU.
Potter’s pleasure after beating ORU was matched by his frustration after losing to North Texas.
“When you don’t execute [the game plan], good things don’t happen,” Potter said. “We didn’t play as well as we’ve come to expect.”
“It’s not our standard, and all I can do is apologize to the people who came out to watch.”
Freshman forward Caren Nelson echoed Potter ’s sentiment, saying that get-ting away from the game plan ultimately doomed the Sooners.
“We just didn’t do things well and didn’t put out our best effort,” Nelson said.
The S o oners are now 3-5 this season and 2-1 at home. With Big 12 play fast approaching, OU heads to Utah to take on No. 6 BYU and Utah next weekend. The trip starts against BYU in Provo Friday night.
Ryan [email protected]
After two games with over 300 rush yards, the run game took a backseat this week. In part, Tulsa forced a more pass-heavy game, but also, the coaching staff said they wanted to establish Bell as a passer. Senior running back Brennan Clay took the most carries out of the bunch but fin-ished with less than 50 yards for the day. Fellow senior Roy Finch led the group in yards with 68. He was helped by a 48-yard run in the fourth quarter. But the surprise of the game was fresh-man Keith Ford. Coaches raved about Ford all through the off-season, but he proved himself to be a tough, physical back Saturday. While Finch succeeds in space and Clay does best off-tackle, Ford might be the best between-the-tackles back on the Oklahoma roster.
The Sooner defense has been the surprise of the season so far, but they faced their share of struggles against Tulsa. The unit allowed more points Saturday than it had allowed all season. After the game, defensive coordinator Mike Stoops admitted his players did not prepare as strongly as they should have for the Tulsa
matchup. Oklahoma heads into a bye week be-fore heading to Notre Dame for their first away game of the season. The defense should have no difficulty finding motivation to work hard for that matchup.
Senior running back Damien Williams did not see the field Saturday. Bob Stoops said Williams was sus-pended for team issues but would return this week to prepare for Notre Dame. Senior defensive back Aaron Colvin also did not play this week after sustaining a broken tooth and possible concussion against West Virginia. True freshman Stanvon Taylor played in his
absence. Taylor, along with senior defensive back Gabe Lynn, also sustained injuries during the game, but Stoops said they would both return to practice in the next couple of days.
