Approved on a 5-4 roll call vote was Bruce Weston who will receive $17,000 annually. Opposition was led by Regent F. J. Pelisek, Whitefish Bay, who questioned paying any publications man $17,000. Parkside Chancellor Irvin G. Wyllie said his campus was the only one in the system without a public information officer. It was noted that the new campus at Green Bay has staff in this area. "The question is, are there enough duties to keep him busy," said Regent President James Nellen. Defending Wyllie's recommended appointment was Mrs. Howard Sandin, Ashland. She said there was a need for good public relations for the Parkside campus, but Nellen asked what Weston would do. Mrs. Sandin explained that Weston would be expected to write articles for newspapers telling the good points about the new campus. Nellen was unmoved. UW President Fred H. Harrington said that a public information officer is more than an article writer. He must advise the chancellor on the possible public reaction to various activities. Harrington added that the Parkside Campus also needs national attention. Pelisek noted that there are a number of public information people in central adFree Burgers Free cheeseburgers will be awarded by McDonald's to students for each "A" on their reoort cards twice in 1970: at the conclusion of the first term in late January or early February; and also in Jufte. The cheeseburgers will be awarded for all final "A's" for each term and will apply to junior high, high school and college students. ministration. He suggested that Wyllie turn to them for assistance. Harrington explained that the central administration at Madison wasn't available on a day-today basis. He noted that in Madison that the chancellor has an information staff as well as several of the separate colleges on the campus. Pelisek, a Milwaukee lawyer, shook his head. Wyllie explained that Weston also would be active in the fund raising area as well as handling alumni relations. "He is going to be very busy," Wyllie said.

Williams, 26, a University of Wisconsin-Parkside sophomore, is one of ten students from UW campuses selected to participate in a North-South Exchange program in which they will attend second semester classes at predominantly Negro institutions in the South. Williams, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul M. Williams of 2808 Northwestern Ave., Racine, will attend North Carolina Central University at Durham. He plans to take courses in business and economics, his majors at Parkside, as well as Negro history at the Carolina school. Academic credits acquired during the exchange semester are transferable to the students' "home" campus. He was selected for the program on the basis of a written application and a personal interview with a selection committee including UWP faculty members, representatives of the Student Affairs Office and three students, Mary Johnson and James Croxford of Kenosha, who were selected for the program last year, and Pat Spring, who was one of four Racine students who participated in the 1968 exchange. Williams, an Air Force veteran, said he is looking forward to returning to North Carolina, where he worked with retarded children as a psychiatric aide before deciding to complete his education. Sponsors say the program is designed as both an inter-racial and inter-cultural experience intended to expand students' personal horizons, stimulate intellectual growth and afford individual students an opportunity to contribute in a personal way to solution of major contemporary problems. Miss Racine Pageant February 1 Is the next Miss Racine a student ai Parkside? Maybe. If you are between the ages of 18 and 28 and single, you might be the next Miss Racine. Sound interesting?

Library Threatens —Take N ote Students who have lost books or incurred library fines totaling $5 or more have until January 24 to improve their standing with the Library. Thereafter their case will be brought to the attention of the bursar and their grades or transcripts to other institutions will be held up until their affairs are regularized. A book is considered lost when it is more than two months overdue (i.e., from November 15). Other students whose shortcomings with respect to the Library are less drastic are earnestly requested to bring back overdue materials and pay their fines by January 24 in order that the records may be cleared up. When materials continue to be overdue and fines remain unpaid, borrowing privileges may be withdrawn. University Students Challenge Business World Five UW students recently appeared on a panel before a group of Madison industrial writers to give their views on the world of business they soon will join. This candid observation of society provides the cover story in the January issue of Wisconsin Alumnus magazine. The establishment took some knocks, but it also received praise. Their views concerning the free enterprise system; protest; reactionary legislation against the university; and their opinions of the student's image in the media provide an interesting examination of attitudes in the "now" generation. The panel included: Elizabeth Allen, a senior in journalism from Chippewa Falls; James Jorgensen, a senior business major from Racine; Pat Korten, a senior in political science from Thiensville, and editor of a campus newspaper, the Badger Herald; Steve Reiner, a senior history major from New York City and editor of the Daily Cardinal; and Jay Walters, a senior in nuclear engineering from Wausau. Here are some of their views. On Protest. Reiner, who jokingly described himself as an out-of-state agitator, said: "I don't agree that protest is negative. I think that many of the elements of student protest are really concerned with saving some of our basic liberties instead of trying to destroy facets of American life. But many of the government's activities and policies within the last several years, in many peoples' minds, run counter to the freedoms, enunciated when our country was being started." Walters confirmed: "When 15,000 people march on the capitol in Madison in a very cold rain to protest the war in Vietnam, they aren't saying that they get a big kick out of walking in the rain and being antiAmerican. They're saying that maybe this war is hurting us... It's a very bad thing, I think, when people high in the government equate protest with anti-Americanism, because it can be one of the most constructive things that this country is ever going to see." ..«»«• „ On Business. Jorgensen said: To turn me on I've got to have a company who s not going to be penny-pinching from the moment I start interviewing with them. Reiner said: "I've got to have a job of which I can be proud, in which I can see results- and one in which I can have responsibility." Kroten added: "Don't put so much concentration on wages that you exclude the qualities of the job you're offering us." ... On government and industry. Jorgensen: "It's ridiculous that every time business does something it's because they got pushed into it. You open the hood of your new car now, and oh! you've got instructions on how your new antipollution device works. But they didn't want to put it there; somebody forced them." Walters: "Technical progress is not a benefit in and of itself: it must serve as a means to a better life. A more efficient power source is not of good in itself if it is going to further pollute the atmosphere; nor is a new superhighway if it destroys a thousand acres of virgin forestland." On students' image in the press. Miss Allen: "In school, we're taught to be very idealistic. You write things the way you see them. During the welfare protestors take over of the legislature last fall, I saw faults on both sides. I wrote it as I s aw it for (a state newspaper) and it was edited out. It's one of those things that the younger generation will have to cope with . . . you can't condemn." Jorgensen: "The only time that the university gets on Walter Cronkite is when the tear gas bomb goes off behind Bascom hall. So what do you expect people to think of Wisconsin? I don't blame the news media, because how many papers are you going to sell with the headline, '35,000 students go to class today'?" Reiner: "The whipping boy (for the state) is the university, and the university's whipping boy is the student protestors." Korten: "The press can tell the whole stor y , but p e o p le w i l l o n ly rea d part of it. . . People's built-in prejudices, if they are strong enough, will override what's written." On reactionary legislation against the university. Reiner observed: "I think it's a very easy cop-out to say — 'If you're going to demonstrate, if you're going to be activists, you're going to cause this rightwing reaction and you deserve it.' Yes, these measures were caused to a great degree by student activism . . . I don't think that activism is a just cause of these measures, nor do I think that's a reason to forbit it — just because you're going to have people who are going to over react." Korten: "I think there are altogether too many students at the university who consider themselves experts on everything; who make decisions which never give consideration to some of the more serious consequences; which pay no attention to responsibility." Wisconsin Alumnus magazine is a monthly publication of the 30,000 members of the UW (Madison campus) alumni association. Humanities Division Announces New Courses The Humanities division will be offering several new eourses which are of an interdisciplinary or an innovalional nature. The Art faculty is currently considering adding a course in photography to its program and in the meantime will exIHTiment with a limited amount of photography work in section 2 of its 222 course, "Two Dimensional Visual Art". And Mr. Hol/.bog will again offer his "Modern Man and His Visual Knvironment" course. Communications has devised a new course entitled "American Rhetorical, Movements: Revolutions, Campaigns, Confrontations." Taught by Dr. Hemmcr, the course will look at the role public addresses have played in selected American controversies and will provide practice in analyzing rhetorical movements. In addition, two drama courses in the English listings will be offered from the perspective of Communications instructors. Dr. Rintz will be teaching Knglish 205: '^Restoration and 18th Century Drama", while Miss Baxter will offer Knglish 415, a course in 20th Century Drama, particularly Kuropean drama. In Knglish, attention has to be called to a three credit seminar, mistakenly numbered 499 in the timetable, for the fact that this course is required of all English majors was inadvertently omitted from the catalog. This semester the seminar will lx> con ducted by Mr. Dean and will" concern itself with the problems of research and methodology. Since the seminar will involve advanced work in literature students who enroll in it will normally be those who are in their last two or three semesters of work. Other English courses providing a new or an interdisciplinary approach are "History of the English Language", to be taught by Mr. Dilligan; "Children's Literature"; and "Darwin and His Cultural Influence", offered by Mr. Dean. The Darwin course might be of interest to students of other divisions as well as Humanities students for it will concern itself with biological and social thought of the 19th century as well as with topics such as racism and imperialism. The French program includes some new literature courses, while flexibility remains the keynote of the German offerings. In German independent study is promoted and students may also earn some credit by examination. Humanities 200, the first divisional course that is not attached to any one discipline, will be given this spring. The course will cover four periods of American cultural history and will look at representative paintings, poetry, fiction or prose, written history, and aesthetic theory in each of the periods, the aim being to show how all these arts and disciplines had similar concerns in each given period. The Music faculty will follow up this semester's opera course, which involved attending the Chicago Lyric Opera, with a symphony course this spring. The course number is 106 a nd Miss James is the instructor. . Philosophy adds several courses to its offerings, including one in contemporary religious thought, a course which makes use of the fact that Mr. Schrader's Harvard dissertation was on Paul Tillich. And Spanish follows up its course in the civilization and culture of Spain with one in the civilization and culture of Latin America. Mrs. Carrington is the instructor. Students may also want to know that the Humanities Division is compiling a booklet of course descriptions to be placed in the various Student Affairs offices, the main offices of the center buildings, and the various libraries. The booklet will list the required readings, where applicable, of each course. Infracurriculum Notes, Springe Information about courses All of the new courses of all departments are being facilitated this quarter through SS 222.

(Mr. Radishes) Pollution Stressed in Science Division Offerings The Parkside Science Division is planning to offer two courses to students this coming semester which will directly deal with environmental pollution. The courses. Earth Science 103 and Meterology 440. will be instructed by Professor Hank Cole and will focus on Environmental Problems. The courses have been broken down in order to deal with the following: Kiirlli Science 103; Experimental Semester. The entire course will center around environmental problems such as air and water pollution, ecological consequences of urban and industrial development, pesticides in the environment. etc. The course will deal with the importance and magnitude of environmental problems and seek to explore the scientif ic concepts necessary for a full appreciation of the problems. The course is a five credit lab course. Lab will include trips to sewage treatment and water treatment plants, power plants, and a weekend field trip to Chicago-Gary for a guided pollution tour. Each student will be required to do a lab project involving local environmental problems. Meterology 440; Meterology has nothing to do with meteorites. It is the study of the atmosphere and its motions, weather and climate. This semester the course will deal Prediction of weather and Air pollution. It is hoped the course will provide information that will enable the student to understand the forces that influence daily weather and the fundamental tools used by forecasters. Satellite movies and up to the "minute" weather maps will be used. Secondly, several aspects of air pollution will be discussed including sources, effects on public health and its relationship to atmospheric conditions. Lab projects will enable the student to focus on his own thing. • QUALITY K. • SATISFACTION • SAVINGS mtm ALWAYS For You and Your Car ROCK A BILL'S DEEP ROCK S ERVICE STATION 2305 Racine 634-9328 SS 222i, Landmarks of Western Degenerature IX: The Dynamic Age and Beyond.

The group will travel to the "TeachOut", scheduled for 7 p.m. to 6 a.m., by charter bus. The "Teach-Out" will begin with a series of talks on such topics as air and watei pollution, the population explosion, depreciation of natural resources and danger of pesticides by a number ol distinguished scientists and politicians. Among the speakersj Paul Ehrlich nationally-known expert on population and author of "The Population Bomb"; Barry Commoner, a noted ecologist and an official of the St. Louis-based Committee for Environmental Information; Illinois Attorney General William Scott, Jr., a crusader against industrial pollution; and Senatorial Candidate Adlai Stevenson, 111, who has made environmental factors an issue in his campaign. Folk singer Tom Paxton will lead an environmental sing-out at midnight and a series of "crash courses" in environmental problems will conclude the all-night session. According to Roy Bohn, 5137 Birch Creek Lane, Racine, Chairman of the newly organized Parkside Students for a Clean Environment, "We are faced with a crisis in which our very survival is at stake. The 70s must be a decade in which we dedicate ourselves to saving the environment which we have spent past decades destroying." Bohn urged community members, teachers and college and high school students to attend the Teach-Out. He said information on the bus trip, which will be supervised by Parkside and Dominican faculty members, is available from the Main Office at Parkside's Racine Campus. Prairie or Tundra?

SPECI AL B O OST ER BUS Leaves Tallent Hall at 9:30 A.M. Round Trip: Just $2.00 Game Adm: $1.00 a t the Door At the December meeting of the Campus Concerns Committee (CCC) some of the topics for discussion were replacing Bob Manley (student) on CCC because of his inactivity, recognition of clubs and organizations, careful examination of the Collegian's financial standing, attempts to set policy as to the activities of clubs and organizations, setting up "written" communications with all organizations and appointing a liaison to the faculty senate. The chairman, Philip Simpson (Political Science), called the meeting to order at 4:00 p.m. Reading and correction of the minutes followed. Dr. Esser's (Life Science) status as a faculty member was discussed and he was pardoned -for not attending any of the previous meetings for excuses presented. Bob Manley, one of the five sflidents representing the 3,000 students at Parkside, has not attended any of this year's CCC meetings. The possibilities of a replacement were talked over and a letter was to be sent to the Chancellor asking for a replacement. Subcommittee report from Dr. James Brokaw (Psychology) included the following organizations . . . the Vietnam Moratorium Committee, the only club fulfilling "satisfactory" requirements and recommended for immediate passage. The other clubs, including The Collegian, Black Student Union, Film Society, Young Dems, Jewish Student Union, and The Committee all lacked a "complete source of funds statement." The young Dems and Jewish Student Union also lacked a consituation or statement of parliamentary procedure. , Brokaw made a motion that . . . "We accept all clubs contingent upon fulfilling satisfactory, forms." The motion failed tyith the vote of 6 -3. This motion led into a discussion of the inadequate forms clubs have to file for recognition ^ mothing was decided. Gerald Musich (English) then proposed formal recognition of Vietnam Moratorium Committee which was passed unanimously. ; The Film Society's funds were discussed and found to be adequate and they also were passed unanimously. Next up for discussion was The Committee. Their source of funds were questioned because of their statement of "selling papers for a nickel." Chairman Simpson said "they are a casual organization" and have no need to have a complex bookkeeping system. They were passed for recognition unanimously. Musich then asked "Can The Committee Put out the Nickel Bag" since it was not stated in the purpose of the organization. Steve Stevens (Physical Education) answered, "Leave the ' guidelines loose." ... Stevens then proposed a statement of purpose stating that . . . "recognition of student organizations'gives them broad relative powers to conduct business unless an issue is raised with this committee (CCC)." Musich questioned the constitutionality and Bill Niebuhr (Student Affairs) said they should stick close to the organizations statement of purpose. The motion was defeated 7-2. Musich is to phrase a resolution in regard to the scope of structures for student organizations. The Collegian was entertained for recognition by Chairman Simpson. Stevens moved and Joseph Hemmer (Communications) seconded the motion. The question of The Collegian's funds and constitution were raised. A spokesman for the Collegian answered all' questions. Continued provisional recognition was given until the next meeting. E D I T O R I A L S Excuses, Excuses, Excuses In an age of modern transportation, speedy communications, and intradepartmental mail, one cannot help but wonder why Parkside is always late. First students had to put up with the absence of their catalogue, then it was the inconvenience of not having a telephone directory; Madison received theirs later and Milwaukee got theirs sooner. Congratulations are now to be given — or rather, should it be Laugh-In s "Flying Fickel Finger of Fate" award — to the group of people lor their superquick job of placing class schedule into the hands of the students. Before we go on, let's take a look at some of the problems encountered in the production of our newly arrived schedule. . First-, our faculty failed to turn in their parts of the information which concerned the offering of classes and who will be teaching them. Give out witn one finger. Second, Mr. Vogt who is our administrator in charge of facilities avocation, unfortunately is the only man with the knowledge concerning which class gets what space. Mr. Vogt took ill and the timetable was delayed another three days. Excused. Third, the timetable was not delivered to the print shop until the day before Christmas vacation, and, since the printer is known not to work on holidays, we the students come up with another week of delays. There are two fingers given out. Fourth, and hold on to your hats for this one, when it was finally finished we experienced another delay when the people in the mail room refused to work on stapling together the schedule because they didn't have an electric stapler to use. I think two fingers for each employee is in order here. Finally, congratulations to you the student for showing your patience in waiting for your timetable and good luck to you with your registration and the coming semester. The final score: four fingers, one congratulation and one excuse. Under the Plastic Dome —Fred Hampton "The successful revolutionary is a statesman, the unsuccessful one a criminal." (Erich Fromm, Escape From Freedom, p. 285) The present statesmen of the U. $. A. continue their genocide against the Black Panther Party and Black people in general. Our future statesmen are continually murdered in cold blood by those who will one day be known as our criminals. From the latter group, Mitchell, Daley and company seem to have borrowed a phrase from the oil companies (for which they stand) by extending the no-knock privilege to narcs and other gestapo members. I know all about the search warrant from Herr Judge, but, who appointed Herr Judge? or got him elected? Yes, they used high octane ammunition super chareed with blackmanhate for greater accuracy. The assassins were probably reprimanded later about the eight who stayed alive. Just one more chapter in the great American RMN-"lower our voices" dialogue. Perhaps they used silencers to adhere to the policy of quietness. This policy is nothing new to white America. A racist wants you to lower your voice so he doesn't have to hear about his victims. An imperialist says arm the government against the people to keep them quiet (so things don't get too Rocky?). War mongers tell us to whisper dissent against war and genocide. Malcolm always did talk about confusing the oppressor with the victim. The oppressor has announced to Black Panthers that if they continue to talk, then death, the ultimate repression, will be imposed. So, Pig Nation answered once again the cry of liberation and justice with the most frequent recourse — the rebuttal of Rat-tat-tat-tat. John Brown went down as a madman for being responsible for the deaths of six men. Lincoln was responsible for one-hundred thousand times that number and became a folk hero. People even like Muskie because he looks like Lincoln. The army might get Lt. Calley for the crimes they committed. It's even possible that the hertchmen who did the recent job in Chicago might have punishment exacted against them; in order to exculpate the greater guilty group. Most of the witnesses at the conspiracy trial were government infiltrators while our allies were being prosecuted. It's important to keep cognizant of who the real conspiracy was and is, when our turn as statesmen comes up. The assassination of Fred Hampton made me ever more aware of my white skin privilege; I felt more than ever that if I were black it very possibly could have been me. I got sick thinking about how apart we are when ft is so crucial now to be together to stop the slavery and murder called law and order. Bickering and factionalism provides nourishment for the reactionary mentality that wants us to turn against one another, who further isolate black people from white people by implementing different systems of punishment for black and white radicals. The vast right wing is kicking, killing, and incarcerating us while we're bickering with each other over various degrees of revolutionary purity.. Aren't we helping to lengthen the time that Bobby Seale Huey Newton and John Sinclair have to stay in jail, by wasting our time lighting among ourselves. Face it, we're too weak to be so divided The coalition forged (albeit imposed on them) by the Conspiracy 8 in Chicago should be a model for all of us. They know that an enemy of your enemv can easily be your ally, even potential comrade. Could anyone imagine'Tom Jay den standing up and telling Bobby Seale that his demands to defend himself vvere essentially reformist? If the Conspiracy could win by popular demand and Conspiracy-like coalitions could be made permanent, then racism and imperialism better start to run (or hide in an oil well). Reactionaries feed on our antagonisms as a minimum daily requirement nutrient. We have to make them suiter this peculiar malnutrition so they can no longer get awav with murdor.

Working College Students Still E xpected To Do Chores By Dr. Joyce Brothers Reprinted with permission from the Kenosha News. Dear Dr. Brothers: I am 19 and a sophomore at a local college. 1 have to live at home to save money and also have a part-time job. I am the oldest of four children so I have always helped a lot around the house. Buy my mother can't seem to understand that I must spend a lot of time studying now. She says I'm not helping enough and makes a fuss if I'm late getting back from school. I'm a nervous wreck with all this fighting and bickering. — A.M. Basic Difficulties Dear Miss M.: While being able to live at home may mean the difference between college or no college, the commuter college student has to cope \yith certain disadvantages. Making friends and becoming involved in college life requires deliberate effort Resident students have the advantages of time and proximity; they are simply together more in the dormitories, in the dining halls or in the study areas. Even if the commuting student is able to make friends and participate in college activities, she must return home to her family every night. She is still regarded as a family member and expected to participate in family activities and help with with the chores. Her parents are likely to continue to take an active interest in her health, her friends, the way she spends her money, where she goes, and her bedtime. The resident student is removed from this solicitousness. Although initially the parents may try to exert control and influence to the same extent that they did when she lived at home, eventually they become resigned to her new independence. Break for the better The commuter student passes from high school to college without any symbolic change in status. The child who goes awav to college is fortunate in that his or her departure is a definite, understandable break with the home. The commuter student must continue to struggle for independence and self identity within the confining bonds of the family life. Usually, she receives all or part of h is financial support from her parents, in frequent, small doles. The student away from her home may be equally financially dependent on parents, but distance makes the tie of wallet to outstretched hand less obvious. Parents who have never attended college may have trouble realizing the pressures that are on the commuting college student. They may be upset if the student seems to be developing attitudes different than their own. They may question the value of education. They may find it hard to believe that their child is "working" when he is reading a novel for a literature course. Mother May Feel Resentment More basically, there may be an unconscious resentment of the child. Even though the parents may admit the importance of a college education for the child's future, they may emotionally feel rejected and slighted by the child's willingness to pass them by as models for adulthood. Your mother may have ambivalent feelings about your opportunities. She may dislike the thought that you are going to be better than she. better in the sense of more educated. While she is stuck with the responsibilities of a house and family, you are preparing to leave her world. This envy may be partly the cause of the friction between you and her. It is natural for there to be some tension between a mother and her maturing daughter; your current situation has probably exaggerated this tension.

COLLEGIAN Room 109, Ex t. 2 4 , Konosh First Semester at Parkside As a final examination an instructor in the English faculty gave his freshman class a "self-examination". He asked them to write personal letters in which they evaluated their first semester at Parkside and discussed how the experience has affected them. Here are some excerpts from their letters: Dear Sir, First of all, I would say that Parkside exists mainly as a set of buildings and not as a coordinated institute of higher learning (if that's possible). Putting it simply, there's too much apathy. Most students seem to regard Parkside as a place where you go for five or six hours, three or four days a week, and that's it. The school itself conducts few, if any, social activities (i.e., dances, mixers, etc.). In fact, there isn't even a place where more than 150 to 250 students can gather at the same time unless they get a local gym. You've probably heard this before, but Parkside is just like a sophisticated high school. College life is non-existent. Most kids still live with their parents and do the same things they did in high school. Now I realize that some people are hard up for cash and can't go away to school. Here the administration should recognize the problem and try to deal with it. How about building a student union at the Parkside Campus? With room for eight to ten hundred students, at least the students would get together more. Another problem is that of student government. There just isn't any. Anything done about this would be beneficial. At least it would start the students thinking about this. Finally, Racii\e and Kenosha have historically been involved in a feud to see which is the better of the two. Racine points to its larger population. Kenosha claims it has less pollution. All this haggling can go on and on. But Parkside wasn't built for Racine or Kenosha. It was built for both together. Students from both cities should be able to get together at the Parkside Campus and share their experiences and feelings, but this can't be done because there isn't any room to meet. Supposedly, there is going to be a library and a fieldhouse built at the Campus, but this is still in the talking stage, and apparently it will stay that way for five or six more years. Apparently we're going to continue having a Racine Parkside as well as a Kenosha Parkside for a few more years. There is one positive thing that I can honestly say about Parkside. And as you can probably figure out. this positive thing is completely accidental. Most of the teachers here are new. and they haven't had a chance to build up t he prejudices and hang-ups that many veteran teachers have. That's just about it. Parkside has to increase student participation. Students have to become more involved. The only ones who'll be able to correct .the present situation are the students and administrators themselves. Sincerely, A.K. Dear Sir, During this first semester of college I have learned that one must open his mind to all the world around. This I found is not only true about thinking but also the natural things that surround us .... I can now see things differently. Instead of just looking at something, I now try to figure out just why and how it got there. To my amazement I found out from one teacher that it is bad to take a class where the teacher just talks and the students just sit there and take notes. I had one such class. The teacher said that he thinks there is a great advantage to the way he teaches. I must say, now, as the semester comes to a close, I found the first teacher to be right. I remember and have learned so much more in the classes where the students were able to participate . . . Yours truly, SC. Dear Sir, ... I would like to comment on the way that the high school system prepares you for college. I don't think that this system devotes enough time, or puts enough emphasis on college required courses. I think a person should be expected to take a language, maybe even find out in the sophomore year if he wishes to attend college, then make it a requirement. This would greatly ease the strain on college professors. They could use the time spent on introductory courses for more advanced work ... . . . T h e i d e a o f s e t t i n g d e g r e e requirements is one qf the best policies which the college systems instituted. It helps you to evaluate yourself, and to find fields other than your major which you can explore . . . In college, I found more freedom to express myself. The rules of college life are not as binding as (lie high school system. There is more freedom to learn. You can feel as though, when you answer, you won't be put down. Everyone has the right to his own opinion and can express it . Sineerelv. J. II. Dear Sir. This first semester has really made me think. College is so unlike high school that it scares a person at first, until they make up their mipds to settle down and work or flunk out. There is no one to push ou y along land tell you repeatedly you had better study. If a person never got anything out of college, he at least learns how to think . . . Yours D.K. Dear Sir, This, my first semester of college, was an enjoyable one. I came here with the idea that college was going to be new and different. It was new and different, but not new and different enough. I can give the same old reason why: Parkside is still a local college, a glorified high school, the same faces, nothing changes, \ believe things did change. I changed. I became aware. I observed. I learned. For the first time I enjoyed learning. I became interested in school. I believe this is due to the teachers. The difference between high school teachers and collegeteachers is tremendous. I suppose it's because college teachers know what they're talking about. __ One thing that bugged me about this school was the students' indifference. That again could be due to the fact that Parkside is a local college, and, given a few years, that feeling will change. Well, that's not good enough. Students have to start to change or it will never change. Some of us guys at school have started a fraternity (against the better judgement of some people). That might seem insignificant, but it's a start. Even if it's a failure, it has brought some of the students together . . . Yours, D.B. Dear Sir, . . . I think the pressures of being in college are high, and sometimes they can really get a person down. But I think that going to a commuter college such as Parkside, the pressures are bound to be high. Many of our friends are going away to school, and you're liv ing at home. Many times a part-time job adds a little more weight. 1 really think that college anywhere will offer a number of pressures due to the importance of hard study. But living at home adds a few more. .. Sineerelv vours. ' ('.It. Dear Sir. Since this is my first year of college. I guess I am supposed to feel an extreme and sharp contrast with high school. The classes are better in respect to content and approach. By this I mean, not as much time is spent on trivial issues, and the material is not pounded into your head. I do not feel the complete and final break with high school yet. Perhaps this is lxicause on my way home every day. I pass it. Parkside seems to be quite void of a campus "atmosphere", but 1 think that this will come with time. The thing I have enjoyed the most is the freedom. The idea of having part of the day free serves as an incentive (at least to me) during a long class . . . Yours, W.C. Dear Sir. Now that first semester is completed, I feel that college life, here at Parkside. is probably much different from college life out of town. A small commuter university, such as Parkside, is very limiting. It does not enable the students to receive a wide range of subjects. 1 don't mean to sound as if I think the university is poorly run; I understand the college is new and one can't expect every type of subject there is. There are also many other limitations to the student who g«x's to college in his own home town. Living at home can always cause difficulties because everyone at home doesn't realize that the student has a lot of studying to do. The parents are always hollering because the beds aren't made, the dishes aren't washed, the floor isn't vacuumed, etc. Also, it's kind ol hard if the student puts in eight to twelve hours a week at a part-t ime job... 1 feel that within a few years the university will have grown, and Kenosha will be booming as a college town.. . Sincerely vours, P.S. THE CA SSETTE REVOL UTION By BILL ROLBIECKI If you're in the market for a stereo system, take time to consider the up coming trend; the Stereo CassettQ. For those of you who aren't familiar with this tape format here's a brief rundown. Instead of the standard seven inch reel to reel tape recorder, the cassette uses a miniaturized version. Two tiny spools of tape are housed in a plastic case measuring %" by 2M>" by 4"; to visualize, two cassettes are equivalent to one cigarette pack. In operation you place the cassette in the machine, press a button and presto! — stereo music. There are some interesting facts concerning tape which will surprise many of you. Oxide magnetic tape is the highest form of stereo fidelity in use today. Also, records are originally cut from professional tape machines. Looking at the record, it has been in existence now for over half a century, and the way modern technology moves today a system fifty years old has just about run its course. Of course the buying of a stereo system is ultimately your choice.. Bqt to notice the real difference between records and tapes you have to conduct a serious comparison. I've constructed a little comparison to help you make your musical decision. Records are steeped in tradition and you've been brought up in a world revolving around records. When you were a bit younger you probably bought and traded 45's, then sat with your portable record player and grooved to bubble gum music. As you became older you purchased a few albums, got a little more earnest and have probably arrived where you are now. It was also fun to read and look at the colorful cover-jackets. So on e point for you, you have tradition. But from here on in it's all cassette. With a record one slip of a finger and you have just ruined a $398 record album. Or how about those good old records — sort of fuzzy? This seldom happens with a cassette. The 250th play of the cassette will sound just as good as the first time you played it, and as far as scratching and ruining the tape of the cassette is highly improbable, for the tape is inclosed in its plastic case, never to be touched by human hands; even in its production it was never touched. How about listening for an extended amount ol time? the limit for a record player is six record albums stacked on top of each other. And saying that each side of a record album is twenty minutes in length, it is possible to listen to two hours of uninterrupted music. But if you wish to play the other side of the record albums you would have to get up and turn over the record every twenty minutes . Now, with a cassette it is possible to play up to twelve hours of uninterrupted music, that's both sides of twenty albums without touching the machine. To some people this feature doesn't hold much weight. But for entertaining guests at a party or simply for hours of uninterrupted background music the cassette is ideal and cannot be overrated. Of course the price of all the units themselves are ranging in prices as record player units, but the cassettes themselves are much cheaper. The 90 minute cassette costs about $2.50, that s two albums worth of music. This works out to one-third the cost per record album. As far as sound quality, I challenge anyone to let me hear the difference.

By BOB BORCHARDT and RICH KIENITZ In light of our last review, or "Grand Funk Railroad," which no doubt shocked the musical world and sent the group's members into exile somewhere in the jungles of South America, it seems appropriate that we now repair the damage done to the recording industry and, through the massive circulation of this paper, shoot them straight Jo the top of the roekpile. So be it. Ten Wheel Drive is a study at both ends of a spectrum. It ranges from screaming sledgehammer choruses to verses phrased like a cat walking over broken glass. One minute they can be playing a "Turn-thatthing-down-you'll-be-deaf-before-you'retwenty," type arrangement, complete with five big horns moving everything along, and in the next cut switch to a beautifully articulate and sensitive neoclassical both done with equal artistry. Two elements of the group stand out on the album, the combination of the two allowing them their high degree of versatility. One is the horn section (bone, three trumpets and alto) which equals that of any rock group out, including BS&T and Chicago; the other is the voice of Genya Ravan, which very prophetically speaks for itself. Upon hearing Miss Ravan, the first thing that comes to mind is the obviously and seemingly invited comparison to Joplin; and while there is only one Janis, Miss Ravan is remarkably close to her in style. She whispers, builds, shouts, screams, soars and falls, and she pulls you right along with her, every inch. No tricks. Nothing superfancy. Just straightforward, honest emotion. Good. c 'ff n ra . Un'^ Listen to something like '' T,g ™? e 'than a she can sing like that for more than a minute borders on niasoch ' s .™\ t ever The horns are five of the best tnai i paid union dues. Individually ° ut some impressive improvisation - something that is sorely lacking in othe brass sections except f° r . of cOU^e e ' Lipsius & Co. But it is as a scction that they reach their peak. I suppose it is someth ng about the whole being greater than the sum of its parts, but whatever it is, there s a certain X factor that keeps hem together from 6-8 t o 5-4, n ever losing the smallest part'of a 64th notj Maybe that s what professionalism is. They re at home with anything from funky bump-and-gnnd to artistic chorales, and it's good to see these guys get some recognition for it. So if you've got four bucks lying around, and you already have found out that the new Beatle album is cancelled. Ten Wheel Drive is a pretty good investment. And it you have even more bread you can drive to Chicago and hear them at Lollies at the end of the month, which would also prove worthwhile. Publishes Book Professor Robert J. Dilligan, a member of the English faculty at The University of Wisconsin • P arkside. is senior author of a book, "A Concordance to the English Poetry of Gerard Manley Hopkins," just published by The University of W iscoasin Press. Associate author of the volume is Professor Todd K. Bender of the UWMadison English department. The book is a computer-aided concordance (an alphabetical list of all the important words of a book or author, with references to the passage in which they occur) of Hopkins, a Victorian poet and Jesuit priest. The British poet, who lived from 1844 to 1889. is often regarded as the first modern poet and is cited for his influence on such later poets as Eliot and Pound. Dilligan, whose special fields of interest arc Victorian and romantic literature, also used a computer in preparation of his UW doctoral dissertation, a computer-aided analysis of poetic meter. Dilligan joined the Parkside faculty last fall. Prior to his doctoral studies, he was on the faculty of Mary Washington College of the University of Virginia. Ed Borchardt Faculty Profile: Loren Hein Although Mr. Hein does not believe in astrology at all, he would be surprised at the similarities between himself and his sign, Aries. (Even I w as surprised I wa s sure he was a Gemini). The two main qualities of Aries, the Ram, are persistence and a violent temper. This temper has Ix'on forged into what Dostoevski once called, "the chill razor's edge of reason." Both the above qualities have played a great part in his career as a fencer and as a mathematician. Better known as a fencer, Mr. Hein is a highly qualified instructor of mathematics and attended such schools as Milton College, Knox College, and the University of Missouri. His introduction to fencing came while he was teaching at St. John's Military Academy, when lie agreed to be the faculty supervisor to a group of boys who wanted to start a fencing club. Of the 80 boys who started out, only a handful stayed with it through the year. Mr. Hein proved to be an able student. After fencing only two years he was able to place eighth out of 86 contestants in a Midwestern tournament. The shock of this good news may have proved too much for his instructor, who had a fatal heart attack that night. When I a sked Mr. Hein why people took up fencing, he told me that its long history and great difficulty give it snob appeal.

COLLEGE BOOK MART 5811 - 6th Ave. Kenosha ir~nr tor the best in new and used textbooks UNIVERSITY BOOK STORES RACINE PARKSIDE KENOSHA WE CARRY Every book, for every course, for every campus POLLUTION By Doug La Follette In the name of progress, man has poisoned his planet. There's no question now that this is true. The only question is: can we stop before it's too late. All across the world, from the smokefilled air of cities like Milwaukee, dying lakes like Erie, ana once lovely streams like the Rock River, pollution is everywhere destroying our environment with smoke, sewage, smog, detergents and noise, together forming one of the greatest problems of our age — the pollution of our planet. With indifference we have been dumping waste into our rivers and lakes, fouling the air we breathe, damaging the soil, and disregarding the severely limited natural resources of man. There is a very faint ray of optimism in the entire problem. It appears that many Americans are beginning to wake up from their unconcerned attitudes toward pollution. A recent Gallup Poll indicated that almost 75 p er cent of the American people would be willing to pay higher taxes to fight the pollution battles. Most everyone talked to considered air and water pollution a major United States problem that must be combatted now. Pollution takes many forms and has many names. Some of the most important are air pollution, water pollution, solid waste disposal, thermal pollution, and noise pollution. There is no wav to escape the presence of air pollution. Each one of us breathes polluted air, thirty-five pounds per day, which causes serious damage to our respiratory system. Day after day the thin layer of air that surrounds our earth is mixed with smoke and soot from tens of thousands of industrial smokestacks and incinerators, and with the deadly fumes from millions of automobiles, busses and trucks, spewing exhaust and lead particles into the air. Sixty per cent of all air pollution comes from motor vehicles alone. At the present time there are 110 million exhaust pipes spewing 500,000 tons of contamination into the air each day. In 1965 the Public Health Service reported air pollution to be a major health hazard in 300 American cities where 43 m illion people live. There are, for example, twice as many deaths from lung cancer in metropolitan cities than in rural areas. Living in cities can be equated to smoking a certain number of cigarettes per day. For example, living in Detroit, Michigan, is equivalent to smoking 37 cigarettes a day, in Birmingham, Alabama, equivalent to 50 in one day. The breathing of all this polluted air in our environment can be directly related to the serious increase in lung cnacer and heart failure, another of our major medical problems. Solving our air pollution problems is going to be expensive. Estimates made recently indicate that three billion dollars per year will have to be invested in the next decade to put air pollution on a manageable basis. That's not an unrealistic figure, but we must do it — Now. However, in contrast, last year the United States government only spent 85 million dollars on appropriations to get rid of air pollution. At the same time we spent 350 million dollars to discover new* methods for chemical and biological warfare. This is a serious example of one of our misplaced priorities at the present time. People living close to Lake Erie, Lake Michigan, or any of the smaller lakes or streams of our nation do not need to be reminded of the serious state of water pollution. Just last summer the Cayuga River caught fire and burned and could not be extinguished. The Cayuga River runs into Lake Erie in Cleveland and it and some other rivers are now classified as fire hazards because of the pollution by oil and chemicals poured into them by industry. The Root River isn't burning yet, but its pollution must be stopped now if we plan to save it for future generations. The war against water pollution is mainly a battle to control and purify a flood of municipal sewage and industrial wastes. However, we face a growing number of other problems which must be fought in connection with water pollution, such as poorly designed and overburdened household septic tanks. Ships and pleasure craft are continually discharging raw sewage into the lakes and waters around our recreational areas, and pesticides and weed killers and other new chemicals are "fabrics for all occasions" being introduced into our lakes and streams, threatening our fish and wildlife and often even public health. Everyone has heard, and the experts all seem to agree, that Lake Erie may well be dead and beyond saving. Lake Michigan is close behind. If we fail to act soon, Lake Michigan may also die and will be much, much harder to bring back to life. The water in Lake Erie is replaced every three years, but that in Lake Michigan, which is. far deeper, requires 100 years, and yet thirty-five cities and forty industries on the southern part of Lake Michigan alone are dumping human sewage, acids, oil, dust, amonia, chemicals and detergents into the lake in a rapidly increasing quantity. • he problems of water pollution and other types of pollution are special in one certain way: we do know the solutions to them; we can solve the problems if we decide to spend the time and money to do so. Many of man's problems are not yet solvable, yet we know the scientific answers to most all of our pollution problems. However, to solve the water pollution problem in this nation will cost money, and in Washington the federal commitment is not being met. In 1968, 450 million dollars was authorized by Congress for water pollution control. However, on<y 200 million dollars was appropriated. In 1969, 700 million dollars was authorized but less than one-third of that was ever appropriated. Recent figures indicate that 2.2 billion dollars in federal aid has been requested for application by cities to build effective municipal waste treatment plants. These plants are needed to eliminate one of the most serious problems of water pollution, and our ever-increasing population makes the need for these systems immediate. However, for 1970 the administration in Washington originally proposed only spending 214 million dollars of the authorized one billion for sewage treatment plants. Here again, where'the answer always seems to be in dollars (and the need for dollars to fight the destruction and pollution of our environment is a must in the 1970's), I believe all Americans must ask one vitally important question. What are to be our priorities? Is going to Mars by 1975 or building a supersonic transport plane or pouring billions of dollars into useless defense weapons more important than attempting to save our own planet from its destruction by man as we pollute our way towards extinction? My answer to this question is No!, for I believe that a serious commitment backed up by the Federal government with a willingness to provide the funds to fight water and air pollution must be undertaken now if the young people of today are going to have a world in which to live. Another major area of pollution requiring immediate attention is that of getting rid of the solid waste that is produced by our affluent society. Each one of us throws out 5.3 pounds of solid waste per day. or 2,000 pounds per year. In total this is enough to make a mountain a city block wide and several miles high. And what's more, this amount of solid garbage will triple in the next ten years. What are we to do with all our garbage? Bury it, burn it, throw it in the oceans and lakes? Where can we sweep it under the rug or into our environment so it won't come back to haunt us in the years to come? Answers to this problem are not easy, but there are many things we could begin to do even now if we are willing to face the seriousness of this crisis. We must build efficient incinerators to burn our garbage without polluting the atmosphere, and we must properly prepare our garbege before it's buried in land fills so it will not catch fire and burn below ground, creating a serious air pollution problem. Lastly, and most importantly of all, we must as individuals and as a society commit ourselves to the finding of new and better solutions to these and other problems of pollution. At the moment, for example, non-returnable bottles and plastics are one of the biggest headaches of waste disposal. We must ask the question, do we, for example, really need non-returnable bottles? Is the job of taking the bottles back to the store too much to sacrifice in order to help save our environment? Sometimes, in the name of progress, we have moved so far so fast that our planet has suffered in many cases often beyond the LEADER bto>ie DOWNTOWN/KENOSHA ELMWOOD PLAZA/RACINE repair. Every year in the United States our technology produces 7 million scrap cars 20 million tons of waste paper, 48 b illion cans, 26 b illion bottles, 3 billion tons of waste rock and paper material and 50 trillion gallons of hot water. Whatever the solution to this problem is, it must be found soon and will no doubt mean a sacrifice by each and every one of us in time and convenience and dollars. ' ast point I think it important to make has to do with laws and law enforcement in the area off»ollution control. Too often, in fact I might even say in all cases, industries and individuals are far too slow to move in the cgntrol of pollution until they are forced by existing laws and the passage of new laws. I want to relate a story about one of the earliest laws I know of involving air pollution. In the year 1309 A.D. an Aztec Indian was found guilty of burning charcoal in what is now Mexico City. For this offense of air pollution, the emperor ordered the man hanged in the town square for fouling his neighbor's air. Six and a half centuries later we might well wish for a return of such strong enforcement laws on air pollution. Mexico City, Los Angeles, Chicago, London, not to mention dozens and dozens of smaller cities are facing air pollution problems that seem insolvable. I don't mean to say that man should be hanged for polluting his air. I do believe that we must begin now KContinued on Page 8) Open Saturdays 9 A.M. to Noon For Your Convenience American State Bank 3928 Sixtieth Street Kenosha VOGUE FABRICS 709 58th Street 458-8412 , y andantes one of Canada's best back by request admission $1.50 all others Saturday, february 7 dancing 9:00 to 12:00 petrifying springs clubhouse — highways a & 31 Registration Information Dr. S.

University O ffers Student Health S ervice By Edith Isenberg, RN A student's health has an important relationship to his success in his educational endeavor. II a student is ill or generally in poor health, he will find it difficult to attend class and learn effectively. Also, he will be unable to take advantage of the many college activities which offer a unique opportunity for personal growth, change, and discovery. The University of Wisconsin-Parkside recognizes its responsibility to provide for the physical and emotional health of its students and wishes to assist them in maintaining and obtaining optimum physical and mental health. Presently, plans are under way for a Student Health Service and the college Right t o Diss ent Is Sub ject of 'College Talk-In' Frequently being tested today in our courts, legislatures and on our college campuses, are the constitutional limits and-or guarantees of the rights of freedom of speech, assembly, dissent, protest, petition, and due process of law. The thin line distinguishing peaceful protest from unlawful disruption is often open to interpretation and is often a matter of intent. In recent months, a number of college campuses across the nation have been the focal point of demonstrations of both the violent and non-violent type, and Wisconsin was no exception. As a result, a joint committee of the Wisconsin Assembly and Senate was formed last year to study campus disruptions in Wisconsin and to make recommendations regarding its findings. Published last fall, those findings resulted in the proposal of several pieces of legislation from both houses. By the time the legislature had adjourned in midJanuary, most of these bills had either died in committee or on the Senate or Assembly floors. Two of them, however, did pass both houses, and are currently awaiting the governor's signature. In an effort to examine the nature, intent, and ramifications of these bills, "The Right to Dissent - in Light of Bills Pending in the Wisconsin Legislature" will be the subject of "College Talk-in" at 10:35 a.m.. Saturday, Jan. 31. Moderator of the panel on dissent (heard on WLIP, 95.1 fm) will be Eric Olson, Associate Professor of political science at Carthage College. Olson also serves on the Kenosha County Board of Supervisors, and is actively involved in the state and local Republican Party.

Friday evening, January 23, at 8 p.m., at the Golden Rondelle. corner of Fourteenth Street and Howe Street, Racine, LeRoy S. Wehrle of the Brookings Institution, Washington, D.C., will speak on the subject, "Is Foreign Aid a Dirty Word?" Wehrle received his doctorate degree in economics from Yale University.

POLLUTION (Continued from Page 7) to pass and enforce serious laws on pollution control for individuals and industry. I would, for example, be in favor of the air pollution laws that the state of New Jersey has recently instituted which fines industrial, polluters ten, fifteen or twenty thousand dollars per offense if they are found polluting our atmosphere. These fines are being used and the air pollution in New Jersey is beginning to level off or even drop in some areas. The same think. I think, should apply to industrial concerns that pollute our lakes and waters in this nation. These laws must be uniform in all states (or better yet have Federal laws) to remove the possibility of large industrial polluters from moving or threatening to move when forced to comply with anti-pollution laws. Only through this combination of proper laws law enforcement, and a commitment on the part ol the individual and government in terms ot energy and money can our pollution problems be brought under control. Each year a new species of animal is added to the list of those becoming extinct. Man, in his arrogance, appears to think we can escape joining that list. The evidence however, is overwhelming that it is much', much later than we realize.

Goodbye Dolly By JEAN PAUL "Hello Dolly!" is the movie musical at its height as proved by the twenty some million dollars poured into the production Everything has the sparkle of a Sunday smile put over a Monday morning. Everything is titanic, including Barbara Streisand's fingernails. No angle of "Hello Dolly" has been overlooked since Ernest Lehman wrote the screenplay. All the dialogue has been expanded and padded until what was a handsome simple styled musical on Broadway has become an emmense bulky, towering and voluminous experience on film. An example is Streisand s parade scene in which she is passed by as hundreds of extras trample on her face on her face while Tony Pastors ooked on Poor Mr. Lehman was busy inflating his script when Miss Streisand needed padding up front. II M iss Streisand seems miscast and you don t notice, you will notice Michael h1? ?u C° rne,iul He seems Perfectly adept for the role, except for his English accent making Cornelius a double character — one, the small town boy of \ onkers which the script calk for a 1 two, an English waif out of "Ha f a Six pence" which the script doesn't !L?i 7 Monday morning SUnday Smi ' C " n ^toUy" 6 is^a gr^at^ Broadway creatively when directed by Gower Champion. Now on film, everything is enlarged until the audience finds one joke in every fifteen minutes of dialogue. .Since vocal response is little, set designer John DeCuir keeps the eyeballs moving. Every scene is so expansive that it takes (ive minutes just to digest the exquisite sets, which means the audience missed the actors' lines. Mr. DeCuire's sets are so fantastic that he's assured a walk up to the "Oscar" this year. While the cameras were photographing Mr DeCuir's sets. Mr. Kelly the director and Mr. Kidd the choreographer must have been watching prints of "Half a Sixpence" in slow motion. In fact I think they stole the dance routines from "Sixpence" but forgot to put the steps together. When Mr. Kidd exposes the audience to a dance number, his dancers become tip toed jack-in-the-boxcs with mechanical limbs that fly into every inch of the movie screen. Mr. Kidd should try cohesion witt his next dance assignment; at least he will save a few broken necks, mainly his. Of course Irene Sharaff doesn't do a bac job covering Miss Streisand's neck. Hct costume designing for "Dolly" was a massive job which she accomplished witr ner rare skill. As Miss Sharaff knows fron the "Funny Girl" movie, it takes a lot 0 material to work with Miss Streisand. Though "Hello Dolly" has many bat qualities, one does feel that all the won gone into "Dolly" has not been wasted I here are some funny lines and situation: which smooth over the rough points. J us the spectacle leaves the audience with 1 good feeling. Truely I was entertained aru I had enjoyed most of the movie since tfo grandiose and spectacle can charm an, eye.
