UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document Rock and Roll and Starboys page four Coalitions Form for C onventions (CPS) — Coalitions have been formed recently in Tampa, Fla., and San Diego, Calif., to organize demonstrations for the Democratic and Republican national conventions to be held in those states this summer. The Florida People's Coalition, held its founding conference in February. The 35- 50 delegates, composed primarily of young white students and former students were drawn from several of the state's youth-oriented newspapers, community organizations, the Vietnam Veterans Against the War (VVAW) and the Shirley Chisholm campaign committee, which attended but did not participate. The San Diego group, called the Convention Coalition, has 125 representatives, mostly from local groups and includes political views ranging from Marxists to liberals and anarchists. Both coalitions seek to coordinate activities with a number of other organizations to build a representative united front which will focus on the war, the economy, and civil rights. Each also seeks support from such national groups as the National Peace Action Coalition, the National.Welfare Rights Organization, UAW, and other anti-imperialist groups. The Florida group is drawing up a "People's Platform" which will be based on the Citizen's Action Pledge, created by members of the San Diego coalition. The "pledge" stresses specific actions that presidential candidates would promise to take to end the war immediately after assuming office, including the following: halt within 24 hours all U.S. military operations in Indochina, a withdrawal of all U.S. military forces from Indochina by April 31,1973 and the resignation of the Thieu regime in Saigon. The San Diego group is also demanding that the President accept the PRG seven-point peace plan. Both coalitions plan to organize medical care, legal aid and information services for large crowds of demonstrators which may attend. In San Diego, a Mayday-style preventive detention policy is anticipated by local attorneys, even though emphasis has been placed on non-violence by the local organizers. Environmental F ilm Festival Earth Week Activities Outlined In connection with Earth Week 1972, Citizens for the Environment is again offering an Ecology Film Festival designed to bring to interested citizens an appreciation of our Earth and its ecological problems and what we can do x about them. w i The general themes for the 2 three evenings of the Festival Z • ar e "Man vs. Nature," "The HI Price of Affluence," and * "Waters and Wildlife."

Anslinger, U.S. Commissioner of Narcotics from 1930 to 1962, has condemned the recommendations of a national commission to abolish penalties for private use of marijuana. Anslinger said the commission's recommendation could have "very serious national repercussions" and he ocalled the findings "terrifying." Anslinger, who almost singlehandedly accomplished national prohibition of marijuana in 1937, said any liberalization of his law would cause the number of heroin users in this country to "mushroom." "If these recommendations go through, allowing smoking in secret without any penalty, then I think in a couple of years we'll have about a million lunatics filling up the mental hospitals," he said. A few old-timers remember him saying very similar things in 1929. About the proposed legalization of another drug which Anslinger was charged with repressing — alcohol. University of Wisconsin - Parkside Volume W Number 13 April 10,1972 Vogue Theater Closes By ROSCOE HUMUS of the Newscope Staff Last Sunday the New Vogue Theatre fell victim to the forces of disinterest culminating six long months of o peration. Last September, Jim Smith and Eric Prentnicks, both Parkside graduates, borrowed $1,000 each and opened the Vogue with high hopes and success staked on the blind faith Eric had for the so-called counter culture. He went so far as to say that Ktown was in t he midst of a sort of social-cultural rennaisance. Now he doubts there is or vee r was a counter culture other than in dime stores and as for the rennaisance he says "it ain't happening here." "I really thought Kenosha could support a theatre like the Vogue but after last Friday when only 18 people showed up for Theater X I sa id there was no way that the Vogue could do anything for Kenosha, Kenosha doesn't deserve it, and it just don't want it." From the beginning the Vogue appeared doomed. Despite ambitious promotion the first films failed to turn a profit setting the pattern for what finally taxed Prentnicks resources and patience beyond hope. He expresses a bitter disillusionment with what he termed the "drinks, drugs and sex" preoccupation of many young people. He estimated the average size of a nightly audience at "seven or eight. Anyone else would have closed down. I've heard of theaters closing down because there wasn't an audience big e nought to profitably show a movie. I stuck around to show a film for two people, you know, for an , hour and a half a nd turn on two cats to a movie." Despite the financial problems plaguing the Vogue Prentnicks insisted that it was not the sole reason for closing the theater. Referring to the performance of Theater X he said "people busted their ass to put on a good show and no one cared enough to come see them. You know its one thing to work hard to do something that people respond to and its another thing to do it and nobody pays attention." In operating the theater Prentnicks and Smith tried to provide exposure for local talent through staging plays and sponsoring concerts at the theater in the dim hope that it would somehow help establish itself as a viable force in the community. For his efforts he said that local businessmen didn't take him seriously "They thought I was a hoppie who was trying to do something weird, they never saw us as serious with the Vogue or even as businessmen." "Before the Vogue started people would say to me hey man, this is what's happening. They'd go to Chicago or Milwaukee or Madison and talk about concerts, and un derground theaters and things. But when I tried to do what they were talking about they just ignored it like it wasn't there." As Prentnicks sees it other "rennaisance" projects such as Harbor West face the same dismal future that engulfed the Vogue. As for the future of the Shoreliners Hall which housed the Vogue Prentnicks said, "As far as I know as soon as Bingo becomes legal in Wisconsin the Vogue's going to be turned into a Bingo parlor."

Page 2 NEWSCOPE April 10,1972 This week NEWSCOPE is featuring an interview with_Dean Loumos, President of Student Government. The interview is important because it elicits the opinions of an elected student officer, and exposes behind the scene glimpses of campus politics. It is also important because it is honest. Undoubtedly, the phones will ring intensely at the Student Organizations Building with calls from people who will express their opinions to Dean or NEWSCOPE concerning the interview. Some will say that we are again 'tearing down the University', others will call to tell us they learned things from it, and will agree with us that no institution is above criticism. Loumos pointed out that a strong student government is the best means of rcpresnlation a student can have on campus. Newscope agrees and amends this to include a strong, independent student newspaper. Parkside has the beginnings of both: NEWSCOPE has never ignored the discrepancies and irregularities which surface in campus life, from unwarranted faculty non-retentions to discrepancies in the size of salads. Like Student Government, we too have been interested in the issues which affect the surrounding area of the campus, issues such as annexation which are pertinent to and directly affected by the University. In the interview Dean expressed the fear that next fall, the efforts of the present SGA may be tempered due to the lack of greater student involvement. NEWSCOPE faces the same plight. There are only six weeks re.aining in the semester, six weeks in which to either solidify SGA's and NEWSCOPE'S positions, or let them erode from under us. If you, the students want strong Student representation and an effective press, you must involve yourself with them. You must support them and volunteer your services in the areas in which you feel qualified. Next fall may be too late, the time for involvement is now, as Dean says "what you do is what you are": It is about time that students find out who they are, discover their power as a unified body and use it effectively to realize their goals. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR kcarc thank you to students TO THE EDITOR: On behalf of KCARC, I wish to thank the students of U.W.- Parkside, for the lovely Easter Party, which was so very enjoyable for the many mentally handicapped children that were invited. The party revealed that much time had been devoted to its organization. The games, music, dances, Easter baskets, and refreshments, were all in excellent taste — really, a big job, beautifully executed. Your interest and efforts to promote the welfare of the mentally handicapped citizens is greatly appreciated. Sincerely, Katherine T. Romaine (Mrs. Thomas) President, KCARC critical of newscope TO THE EDITOR: In your March 27th issue you looked with jaundiced eyes. . .and down your nose, too. . .at a new campus publication called PARKSIDE TODAY. Speaking only for myself, I say "Welcome" to the new arrival. I learned more about what was happening on Parkside's three campuses in that one issue of TODAY than I would find out in a semester of NEWSCOPES. You ask for student "input". Okay. . .I'll contribute some. My subject: What's the matter with NEWSCOPE?. . .Here goes. . . 1. At least 50 per cent of your copy has to do with sports. . .a very disproportionate coverage of campus affairs. 2. You're a bunch of petty fault-finders. I can't recall a single news item or editorial in which NEWSCOPE had anything good to say about Parkside. . .Always out with a axe to grind. I sometimes wonder why some of you stick around. 3. You waste space with book reviews which, I am sure, are very seldom read and with drivel like that found in the "On the Nod" column. What phony sophistication! The March 27th "Nod" column sounded like a diary of a bar fly. 4. You're biased when it comes to politics. . .and often very naive. 5. You almost totally ignore the interesting activities of faculty members and of the many clubs on the campus. If it wasn't for the bulletin boards we wouldn't even know that these clubs were around. 6. You often fail to differentiate between news and editorial comment. Don't you have an Advisor? The other story on page one of your March 27th issue (other than the article about PARKSIDE TODAY) was headlined "CCC Hearings Raise Questions". I know that NEWSCOPE was just reporting a meeting. I mention the story only because it shows your propensity to make a mountain out of a mole hill. Plus your usual inference that "Now we've found something else that that damned administration is doing which needs investigating." The hearing?. . .Fifteen present including several faculty members. Some turnout!. . .for an "open" meeting to which the entire student body had been invited. The story seemed to indicate that there was a lot of adolescent quibbling about grade point averages. (If each of us did our homework w^jwouldn't have to worry about point averages.) averages.) For me the most enlightening bit of information that came out of the story was that the President of Parkside's Student Government Association (usually considered as being The Big Man on the Campus) was carrying less than six credits. Well, I'll be darned! I wonder. . .Just how many does he carry? And the other subjects on the agenda, according to the NEWSCOPE story, had to do with who can be elected to what and when and what the requirements should be for a group to become a recognized campus organization. . .and their subsequent responsibilities. At this point the faculty members and CCC reps were trying to spell out some ground rules. . .which is good. The reporter sounded somewhat dejected as he ended his story. . ."The hearing concluded rather haphazardly when the participants trickled off, one by one.. ." The figures. Anyh ow, wel com e PARKSIDE TODAY! Come out often and let us know what's going on around here. Certainly there are more important things to report than that "Dick Gregory Speaks at Carthage." Tell us about them! Arthur M. Gruhl P.S. Oh yes. . .One more thing. It's not a question of something being "right" or "wrong" or "it depends on circumstances". In my opinion, those ads for abortion mills which NEWSCOPE prints cheapen the paper. — A.M.G. 'zpg' film attacked TO THE EDITOR: I am writing to you about the film "Z.P.G." that Paramount Pictures plans to release in early April. This film is set in a period thirty years from now. Overpopulation has become so rampant that the (world) government issues an edict on January 1, 2002, prohibiting childbirth for 30 years. The story is about a couple who, having delayed their first child, who find it impossible to live with this edict and steal off to their bomb shelter basement to have a child. While the film gives a grim picture of life as it may well be if man fails to control population by voluntary rational means, it is a gross misrepresention of what "zero population growth" stand for. ZPG does not mean no more babies. It means no population growth — that is, a birth rate equal to the death rate. As a result of Paramount's refusal to change the name of the film or to clearly indicate what "Z.P.G." means, ZPG is suing the company for misrepresenatation to block use of its name on the film. I hope that all readers of this column will boycott this movie. If it is shown by any theaters in the Kenosa-Racine area, members of Parkside ZPG will picket those theaters. Sincerely, Dr. Robert J.

BE THERE April 10,1972 NEWSCOPE Page 3 Dean Loumos on the roles of students and administrators Interview with th e President of Student Government By Jim Koloen, Editor "I believe in you are what you do and answering the question on how the present student government compares to the last, I'd say that we are the only student government that Parkside has ever had." That statement was made by Dean Loumos, President of the Student Government at UWP during an interview with NEWSCOPE which took place in the student government offices located in the Student Organization Building. Besides the dark haired Loumos, Dan Trotter, a senator, also sat in on the interview to add to his President's statements. "Like we're the only ones who have really been known by the students," Trotter emphasized. "Before, if you ask'ed students what their student government was doing, they'd say: 'what student government'?" Trotter continued, "now they either say 'those sons of bitches' or 'yeah, those guys are doing some good things'." Loumos expanding on his previous statement said, "we haven't messed around. Students either love us or hate us. Anyone who doesn't have an opinion is pretty much worthless to any form of government. If you have no opinion, there's nothing we can do. Perhaps, we can do something to force you to make an opinion, and I think we've done a lot of that and that's basically good. So you are what you do, and if you look back at the past three or four years, I think you can safely say we're the only student government that has been at Parkside." When asked about the problems of the present student government, Loumos replied that "internally there's a lack of experience among the people in it as to what their functions are, what they're supposed to do." Trotter added 'that "externally, our problem has been misinformation from administrators." Dean broke in, "it's basically a problem of the definition of our role. We consider ourselves a vital part of the University", he continued, "and therefore we want the official say, we want official votes, we want to be included in the whole decision making process." Loumos explained that "up until now, where we are now, we have votes where they (the administration) let us, and that's only superficially. No student anywhere can yet get in on what's really going on in the University." Trotter explained that many of the present student government problems began "with a little misinformation here and a little there until it eventually became a personal battle. It came to the point where the administration called us militants and radicals and began accusing us of being subversives. At the height of one conflict with the administration we were told to shut up or they'd use things from the files they told us they'd gathered on us. At that point we cut off communication with them, they'd threatened us to either shut up or they'd use their files against us, and then it became a personal battle, at least for me" Trotter explained. Dean added that it didn't make any difference to him because don't really think they can do anything to me. Throwing me out of school isn't a punishment as far as I'm concerned. I mean, wow, it's totally absurd. It comes down to mistrust built on mistrust, and that mistrust is founded on a complete paranoia on the part of the people in Tallent Hall." Loumos continued that "we do everything in the open, everything we do is above board, we never tried to hide anything, and we never will." Continuing on the subject of the administration, Loumos said "I've never seen so many paranoid people as there are in the administration at Parkside. They don't have too much guts, they're balless, they simply follow orders real well. It's especially difficult on our part because they're the people who have to help us, they have to ok everything we do. Like when we had the open meeting in the union a -while ago, those people thought it was one of the worst things to happen on campus. I think they're afraid of a really strong student government, one that won't always reflect their attitudes. They want people who look neat and don't worry about controversial issues, they would ideally like to see another Student Activities Board out here, something whose purpose is to present entertainment or some non-political things". Loumos explained that he thought the administration "just doesn't like our attitude. My attitude is that maybe half of the people in Tallent Hall could be done away with, and their jobs could easily be taken over by us, the students and faculty." He explained that the administration doesn't want to allow students to work in Tallent Hall "for purposes of control. *1 m ean this isn't their fault alone, it's the regents' fault, it's the fault of universities all over the country; there's this attitude to keep these damn students down, of not allowing them to do things for themselves." Trotter added that "three years ago they brought us all kinds of folk singing groups and they died miserably because people just weren't into folk singing. The whole thing, like bringing the First Edition was ridiculous, they're living in a past culture, they think everybody's like they were when they went to school, and they expect us to relate to it. But everything's changed." Dean said "that's typified by Student Activities. They've got a guy over there who's a booking agent, and that's what he does, he books entertainment for us. He has almost no contact with students at all, he sits in his office in Tallent Hall and personally handpicks the Activities Board. At least until now, presently the people already on the board pick members. But he originally picked all the people on the Activities Board. Now what the hell, they won't even let us bring in our own bands, bring in our own entertainment, bring in our own movies." Trotter added that "they tell us to hold referendums, and then they say referemdums are meaningless." Loumos explained that "they claim that we're not representative of the student body because we were elected by only 17 per cent of the student body. That's really a significant point, especially the entertainment thing which the Activities Board controls, because if they do that in just these little, insignificant areas like entertainment, I mean if they do that in everything else, we should be concerned with where we should have our say. But they're not gonna let us do it, they're gonna hire somebody to do it for us." Dean noted that "like all the policies of academics, of w hy should there be grading instead of pass-fail, they say we can hand in suggestions and be on committees, but that's not any real say. They'll listen to us but if they don't agree, they won't do what we say." "I think their attitude to ward students goes back to the whole misconception that students are in college to go to school and be taught and that is all," Loumos explained. He continued, "they think that since faculty and administrators were once students, that they know all our problems and can handle them. Well, that's just not true. I for one want my life in my own hands, I don't want it dictated to me, I want to make my own decisions, and I t hink we can do that. Student Government is what it's supposed to do, that's the body which is supposed to decide student matters, and we can, we can do those things, we can find competent people to stick into committees, put them in the very real positions where you can place your hand on it and say 'we do this." Loumos concluded that "now we can only say we think we do this, we can write suggestions and that's really about all." Smiling Trotter added, "if we try to pull off too much, we get threatened with files." i Continued on Page 8) tfuurmiik B E E R Join The Brotherhood of Hamm's ALRIKAS Body and Paint Shop 6310 - 20 th Ave. Phone - 657-3911 Kenosha, Wisconsin Sports Cars Specialists Save for the Future WEST FEDERAL SAVINGS Phone 658-2573 58th St. at 6th Ave. MAIN OFFICE: CAPITOL COURT, MILWAUKEE BUDDY RICH and his big band Sat.

By Marc Eisen of the Newscope staff "So you want to be a rock n'roll star listen now to what I say just get an electric guitar and take some time and learn how to play..." —from a song by the Byrds Cy answers slowly, intently, "It's like 'What do you plan on doing?' Make a living, right? It's something you want to do." He looks up now, his eyes meeting your's, as if o t make sure the point is made. Cy is the drummer for the Starboys, a band of no small legend in their hometown of Kenosha. Since June they've lived in a house on North Oakland Street in Milwaukee. They made the move to find more gigs, to get more exposure. But ten months later, they've made barely a dent into the Milwaukee scene. Gigs in the city, itself, are few and far between, and the band is no closer than before in finding an agent who is interested in them. The illusions are gone for the most part. This is reality. For a band that has been together for more than three year a, existence is a survival trip. "We're not at the point that if we don't get famous in a week, we're going to kill ourselves," Frank says. "We just want to make a living playing our music." The band members are: John Sieger, guitar, Frank Niccolai, electric piano and organ, Kenny Vanderpoel, bass guitar, Cy Costabili, drums, and Phil Clarke, saxophones, flute, harmonica and percussion. ROCK They've been together for years now, but the move to Milwaukee was the Big Decision. The committment to their music. No more part time jobs. No more separate apartments. They would live together in a co-operative. They They would live off their music. This would be it. "We got fired from a job once in Racine," Kenny says. "We played some Chuck Berry, and the owner says, 'I don't want any of that hillbilly music'." Cy nods in sympathy. "It's really nice when you play and you think you're doing well, and you see you're not making it no matter what you do. Because out in the audience the people are either leaving, or the manager is walking back and forth shaking his head, and looking at you every once in a while and shaking his head some more." "It's good for your ego," Frank adds. "They either want Top 40, or heavy underground music that's really shit," Cy says. "We're trying to make a living playing music that doesn't help you make a living — unless you've already made it." Frank explains. "Most of the young groups are emulating the people they are closest to — the young white rock groups," John says. He is the most analytical of the five, the most articulate about their music. "The second generation bands are copying things* off of them, instead of listening to what they listened to. They're missing something." "We're doing the same material that the Stones, the Beatles, the Kinks listened to at one time, rather than doing their material," Cy offers. He talks slowly, picking his words with care. Frank adds, "It's like working from the same base to different conclusions." "We're trying to get back to 1965," John says "1965 was when we had our minds blown by music — the Beatles, the Who, the Kinks, Dylan. What these people were selling was honesty." The music of the Starboys is difficult to categorize. Different strains run through it from Dylan ("Corrina, Corrina," "Down Along the Cove' , "All Along to the Watchtower") to Chuck Berry ("Johnny B' Goode", "Sweet Little 16" Living in the USA") to Zappa ("King Kong",' teaches en Regalia") to Eddie Harris ("Listen Here ) to Mississippi Fred MacDowell, to Otis R, ed? n ^' t0 Alice Co °Per, to Hank WHIiams ( Honky Tonkin' ") to Jimmie Rodgers, to the Carole King golden oldie, "Locomotion". Then about 40 per cent of their material is original. Their taste is eclectic, but unified in conception. The band has contempt for what they call "riffrock , the mindless jamming that characterizes many bands. They see it as the enemy. Once for aH°flnrt+h mon^ hs ' fh *V didn't s„,0 extensively at all. and through an evening's performance not one song would be over three minutes long _ it's not the type Of thing that most audiences apprec ate Then there is disregard for most overt showmanship on stage. ita». us . w» nt t0 ctano (a/l_ , wam to gr 9rimimacace e on on ?? f 66 a hree piece heavV group that looks like they re being crucified, I really want to go up there and give them first aid," John savs "It's synthetic," he asserts. "We don'^anUo do anything synthetic. If we have achifW o thing on stage, it's that I think when pe0D^ iea they think we have done something real J we' not feeling good, you're.going to see it n* I*'- + I .... " °n 5IOS It's not just a tape loop we run m °ur heads where every performance is identical "The authentic stage acts like the SWc t Who, Alice Cooper, the Doors when thPv'h Morrison, Hendrix, they were always doil something that was really intelligent theatre stage," he continues. "It just wasn't teena pain." "I guess we're not a saleable group" Frai ventures. He's the maniac of the group. Perpetu glee is in his eyes, and the cosmic gigqle k *iwa about to erupt from him. "A friend stopped over last night," he continue "and gave me that old line again — what's wroi with our band." His voice slips into vintaqe us< car salesman hardsell. "You gotta get up the and play funky music. You gotta jump around ar be insane — the chicks will like you, and i f tl chicks like, everybody likes you, 'cause everyboc likes the chicks." He tails off. "Look as freaky . you can," he starts again. This time dragging tl words out as if his throat was lined with grave "Do Santana. Grand Funk. Get it on." Disgust, t leers. He shakes his head. "They want 'Heavy Music' — whatever the he that is," Kenny says. "We never use the ter when we discuss our music." Starboy music is a mixed bag. The differe strains converge, as their own sound is dvelopir in the blend. The vocalists are examples of thi Kenny is the adenoidal rocker, his roots in WAS rock n' roll. John is the country fine singer — wi echoes of country blues and the lonely plaint i Hank Williams. There's a mournful quality to h voice,a touch of innocence and sadness. Frank the tenor, having, perhaps, the best voice of all, F handles the blues numbers, and his voice has tt right intensity for it. Musically, they're well meshed. They're tigh but not the tightness you associate with a go studio rhythm section. Rather, they play inside one another, and you hear not five separate struments but an integrated sound. There's no jerk-off riffs, but instead a c< centrated, coalesced music. John, on guitar, economical and precise in his solos. Phil, saxophone, at times is amazing. Disclaiming a overt jazz influence on his style, he can, on a so switch from the honking and squealing of Tex rhythn and blues to the droning of a Coltrane-li saxophone as he builds, bending notes as progresses, exploring a riff to its end. "We were going to hit Milwaukee by storm," ' says, remembering back to June. "I remember the first job we had Milwaukee," Frank nods. "It was at the Colle Fieldhouse. The place had the accoustics of manure pile." "We really bombed in that place," Cy says agreement. "The people really hated us." "We didn't bomb. We didn't bomb that bad Frank says defensively. "Yeah, we did," the rest of the group replies. Kenny adds suddenly, "When we played at t Stone Toad, there was a . . ." he stops, at loss f the proper word. "There was a school in the an that brough these kids who were. . ".. . deaf homosexuals," John says. "Honest God, there were 25 deaf homosexuals ther They're coming up to us and making these le v motions." Cy says earnestly, "There was this one gi there that kept coming up to Phil and he had th Santa Claus that you pulled this thing out and dick would pop out. . ." "What?!" Kenny asks incredulously. "Yeah," Cy claims. "Then he'd go.. •" Cy w; smacking his lips together now and everybody laughting." Humor is a strong point with tf Starboys. "I don't know if they were faking it or what John says. "Why would anybody who's deaf wai •to hear a band anyway?" "Because," Cy answers seriously/ "there wet people there who were explaining to these peop with sign language. . ." ". . .describing the music for them/ Joh finishes the thought. "And they didn't like us!" Cy adds, his eye glowing. "They weren't just listening," J°hn sa> laconically. He shakes his head. After a while, h becomes serious. "At the places we've played at i the last few months the audiences have beeni in their own things: sex, drugs, and booz* That what they're there for. Music is just the. • • . .the catalyst," Frank interjects. "Like ice in a drink," Cy says. "It's a pretense to be there," John con m ue; John "But no one wants to listen to the music and get into it in an honest way. They'd rather sit there and pinch each other's asses and drink beer." Commercialism is a possible way out. A way to make money to survive. To exist till the time when it's economically feasible to play the music you want. The Starboys have gone this route couple of times. The last time it was with a manager, who was the talent coordinator for a major Top 40 station in Chicago. The manager had a female singer, and she wanted the Starboys to back the singer. The Starboys agreed. The relationship ended with the two sides at each other's throat — "We.were mutually terrified by one another. We simply got paranoid," Frank says in retrospect. "We have been terrifically unlucky," Phil declares. He is the hiost quiet of the Starboys. He speaks in a tentative voice. "Most groups who have been together as long as us have had some sort of opportunity to make it." "Maybe we don't compromise enought," Frank offers. Beneath his maniacal exhuberance lies a clear vision of things. "We try to compromise for a while but it doesn't work. It becomes so unbearable we have to stop. "How can you play something you don't really like?" Frank asks. "Can you convince yourself you like it? — or do you think, 'I have to make money and this is what I have to do!' You may be happy you're making money, but you're going to be very unhappy because you can't stand what you're doing. "I go see other bands," he continues, "and it seems they have demeaned themselves. Like their musicians, and it's about time they realize it. A musician is an artist," he says emphatically. "We did try to change," Kenny acknowledges. "We had the opportunity to make some money. We changed as much as we could. The people didn't like us," his voice tails off, "and, uh, we didn't like us!" "It's one thing not to have anyone like you," Cy joins in. "It's another thing not to like yourself." He rolls his eyes. In appearance Cy looks like a 3A size Cat Stevens. "We can't get into any of these side trips like ROLL playing temporary commercial music so we can be big in the future. That's what they tell you, but it's a bunch of bullshit," John says definitely. "We actually sold out," Cy admits. "We tried it, you know, and it just didn't work out," John says. "When we play Well, I enjoy it," Cy affirms. "When we play bad, I think I should be doing something else. "We're trying to bounce back," Kenny says. ".. fr. om a kick in the balls." Frank finishes the tought. What are you going to do in six months if you're in the same stiuation — still struggling to subsist? "I'm almost positive we will be in the same situation," Kenny answers quickly. "I can't see. . ." He stops, and at that moment the band seems to share an epiphany. "My God," John says softly, to no one in particular, and then suddenly they're laughing like madmen at the realization. What are you going to do? "I don't know," Frank answers. "But I know the band will be getting better." "We'll mature. We'll be a better band. That's all I'm thinking," Cy}adds positively. "We're too good to be ignored," Kenny asserts. "It's going to take three or four more years." "Meantime, we'll enjoy playing," John says. "We're not that optimistic, but we know we're going to keep at it. It's mainly a survival trip. We're not hardsell." He shrugs his shoulders. It s a borderline existence, at best," he says simply. "I mean if I quit I'll be buying Zest soap and raising kids," Kenny exclaims. There is a look of barely suppressed glee on his face. At times, he looks like he might have been the type of teenager who swiped hubcaps for the thrill of it. "There's not too many people that enjoy what they're doing like we do," Cy says. "I enjoy what I'm doing. I get up around noon every day. If there's food around, I eat, if not, I scrounge aroun til I get fed. Then I'll practice, and then I'll do something else. I'll practice some more, and then I'll get drunk. It sounds ridiculous - ridiculous, come to think of it!" Cy is in the mids of another epiphany. "But I'm enjoying my li e or the. . ." he stops to calculate, . -for the past couple, for the past two months!" He nods his head and they all begin laughing again. "We're on the road to beautyville," John says succinctly. April 10,1972 NEWSCOPE Page 5 v> r ^' CK Vlcis.l-' 0 Sun. l-b 12 02.

Visit t o Morrisons Grave By Sal Ferrera PARIS (CPS) — The young American student who walked up as I was about to leave was startled at his discovery. Like most visitors to the historic Pere-Lachaise cemetery, he had come to see Oscar Wilde, Honore do Balzac, or maybe Frederic Chopin. All he could say was, "I can't believe it!" You see, we were both standing in front of Jim Morrison's grave. We'll probably never know why Jim Morrison of the Doors was buried in an almost unmarked grave in Paris, just like we'll never know much about the cause of his death on that 26th of June last year. As a matter of fact, we weren't even told about his death until a week later, And then all the newspapersaid was that he had been buried "in private." But that was all last year. Almost one year later, my visit to Jim Morrison's grave revealed that people, and especially young Europeans, still visit the half-hidden site in "Division 6" of this most famous of cemeteries in Paris. They've left a lot of reminders, mostly scribbled notes under the 20 or so seashells which lie along the perimeter of the grave. For instance, there is the note which says simply, "Good-bye Jim," and is signed, "One friend French." Under another shell there's an unsigned note rolled up with a ring around it, and it says, "I don't know you Jim, but I like your music and want to be your friend." On another one from "Patricia and Nelly" which reads, "Now you are in heaven, in a world of peace like Brian, Jimmy and other, but we'll go to join you after." Other visitors, in misplaced zeal to express themselves, have taken to scratching messages on the backs of adjacent headstones, like: "Richard from Montreal, 17-11- 71" who said, "We think of you Jim"; or the annonymously etched words, "LA Women." The Doors were a product of Los Angeles, California. Forming in 1965, they took their name from a passage in a William Blake poem concerning doors. It wasn't long before the group gained national prominence, offering songs like "Light My Fire" and live performances which were to say the least, "different." Morrison's exposing himself to a Florida audience became part of what is probably the most notorious of all Door performances, at least the arresting police thought so. Jim Morrison doesn't have a headstone, or even a stone covering for that matter, It's a plot of exposed ground with a narrow frame of concrete. But there's a hand-written message on a kind of plaque poked in the ground. In addition to his name and dates 1943-1971, it tells us that Jim Morrison was a "PoetCompositeur." Below that it reads: "Yesterday a child died in wonder; here he lives, head in hand." ' A ' April 10,1972 NEWSCOPE Page 7 Netmen Prepare for Season With the snows of recent weeks barely melted off the courts and the players still accustomed to the warmth of the indoor arena, the University of Wisconsin-Parkside tennis teapi is bracing for its first week of play, which includes contests against four tough foes in a six-day period. Coach Dick Frecka's jacketmen will face UWMilwaukee in their opener Monday at Milwaukee and then return to their home courts at Racine's lakefront Pershing Courts to face Marquette on Wednesday, Dominican Thursday and UW-Green Bay Saturday. Frecka's squad finished last season with a 3-7 mark but Frecka has a young group and is looking for improvement this time around. Mike Safago, Kenosha sophomore, looks like the number one man heading into the first meet but Frecka emphasized that the lineup is likely to be shuffled frequently through the season and that no one can be sure of a spot. Another Kenosha sophomore, Dan Mieczkowski, should go at No. 2 singles in the early meets while Villa Park, 111., freshman Skip Jones appears set at the No. 3 spot. Kenosha junior SPORTS SHORTS KENOSHA, Wis. — Dave Donaldson, gymnastics coach at the University of WisconsinParkside, has been elected secretary-treasurer of the NAIA Gymnastics Coaches Assn. KENOSHA, Wis. - Officers in the newly-formed National Varsity Club at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside include Dario Madrigrano, president; Bob Hartman, vice president; A1 Gelsone, secretary ; and Guy Trecroci, treasurer. KENOSHA, Wis. — Lucian Rosa, freshman distance runner at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside, will represent his native Ceylon in the summer Olympic Games at Munich. He'll run the 10,000 meters and the marathon. KENOSHA, Wis. — Mike De Witt, a senior trackman at the University of WisconsinParkside, recently won the mile walk at the 29th Annual Amateur Athletic Union Championships in Milwaukee in a record 7:07. Dennis Halverson is likely to go at No. 4 singles while Racine junior David Herchen should be at No. 5 and Todd Nelson, Racine junior, at No. 6. Top doubles team in the early going should be Safago and Jones with Mieczkowski and Halverson paired at No. 2 and Herchen likely as half the duo at No. 3. After this opening week, the tennismen have a schedule break until April 26, when they resume action here against Milton. They'll close out April with matches April 28 and 29 against Dominican and St. Norbert, respectively. The remainder of the schedule shows UW-Milwaukee at Parkside on May 5, the Rangers at UW-Green Bay on May 6 and at Milton on May 10. The NAIA playoffs are slated for UW-Whitewater May 19-20. Golfers t o Tee O ff Weather and grounds permitting, the University of Wisconsin-Parkside golf squad will open its 1972 season Monday at Lake Forest in matches against the Foresters and Rockford College. And the wet ground and cold winds of the North will offer a new challenge for Coach Steve Stephens's squad after a week of practice and intra-squad tournament play on the links in Tampa, Fla. But Stephens is confident that his Rangers, who tied the UWMadison linksters in a fall tournament, will be ready to play well in the Rangers' short four-week season. From Florida, Stephens noted that Racine sophomore Jim Vakos was emerging as the team's number one man for the scheduled opener but that Racine freshman Tom Feiner and Kenosha soph Tom Bothe were close behind and challenging. Other spots, Stephens said, remain up for grabs heading into the first match. The schedule: April 19 - UWWhitewater, Dominican and UW-Milwaukee at Pets- April 21 - Milton, Ripon at Janesville; April 22 - Northwestern, UWMadison at Evanston; April 24 - Northern Illinois, Bradley at DeKalb; April 26 - Loyold, Carthage, UW-Whitewater at Pets; April 28 - Roosevelt at Chicago; May 2 - Lake Forest, Dominican, UW-Green Bay at Pets; May 4-6 - NAIA District 14 Tournament at Green Lake.

"I see it as creating a consciousness among the students. I realized that in almost no way could we put student government in the position we wanted it in school, until students became aware of the fact that student government was for them. So we did things for the students like the book exchange, and helped on the day care center, and held open meetings. We had to get students involved in the process so they could see that it sucks, and that it should be changed. A lot of people think that now, but they just don.t want anything to do with it. So my thing was to show them things we could do together outside of school, by ourselves and then- throw them into the committees with the attitude that we are mature enough to handle our own lives. I wanted to see people come upagainst the bureaucracy and the hassles and to take it as far as they could go. The administration would allow for some change, but it only goes so far; now the thing to do is get all those changes within the structure as far as we can, because once we do that, people, I think, will come to the realization on their own that it isn't enought, and that,they'll have to take it one more step further until the administration says no. Then the committment has to be made whether they want to take it to the natural extension of their actions, and I think they will, because it'll be too important to them not to; then we can move." Trotter interjected that "we're trying to change fhe administration's view of the average student as being a mouse in a maze, that he's just there to get to the other end in four years, and never says anything, or thinks anything about the walls." "Really," Lou.os added, "our main goal has been to create a consciousness among the students that they are somebody, that they can do things, that they can control what happens to them while at the University." During a more pensive period of the interview, Loumos told Newscope that "I get the feeling that some students are intimidated by my office, that they're afraid of c oming up and talking to me, or to senators for that matter. I think a student should feel able to walk up to a senator and grab his arm and say, 'you asshole, what have you been doing with my life' if he doesn't agree with something, or just come up and tell me what he wants to see done. That's one of the reasons for our literature table, which we're setting up in the Activities Building. We'll have a phone there, and we'll sell Panther papers, the RYM's Midnite Special and the Wisconsin Alliance's paper. Ideally we want people to come up and debate things, argue viewpoints. And if anyone wants to pass out leaflets at the table, they can. In fact I've been thinking of moving my office ;nto the Activities Building so I can have closer contact with the students. Where I'm located now, I'm pretty effectively cut off from students." When asked about the proposed six credit requirement presently being considered by the CCC for student government officers, Loumos replied that "I guess everybody knows by now that I have only one credit.

There was never an official effort to get ourselves established in the University until recently, though even now our view isn't accepted. However, I do think that there was a conscious effort to keep student government out of the process of the University. Anyway," Loumos continued, "I was talking with Ed Hales, the new regent from Racine, and he told me he was in student government when he went to school. He felt that it was ridiculous to require a student government president to take any classes at all during the year he served. I agreed because, really, our role is very important, there's a lot of work to be done and there's no way I could have done my work and attended classes at the same time. I'd have just wasted my money and probably would have flunked." Concerning the proposed rules and regulations for the Student Handbook, Loumos said "they're going to put in rules for us' They're gonna place regulations on us?! Will they let us put rules and regulations on them?" When asked about the symposium which student government is planning for April 18 through May 20 Loumos explained that idea of the symposium is to "show the students opportunities for alternatives to the form of education they receive at Parkside. We're planning at least eight events from a seminar on Prison Reform to a Woman's Day, to 18 straight hours of non-Hollywood movies at the Vogue Theatre to a bon voyage party for the Racine campus." During the symposium Loumos explained "we want to show students they can do something with their education besides working for Johnson's Wax or American Motors. We want to show them how the educational process is part of prison reform, and that the University is not only here to grant degrees, but to help the people in the communities." When asked of the present state of the student government, Loumos replied that "it's probably the most representative body on campus, the only thing it lacks, perhaps, is enough women senators, but everything else, from political views to race to age is represented." He added that there was little, if any factionalism; "we all get along with each other real well, and unlike other SGA's we never have trouble attaining a quorum." Touching upon the open meeting that had been sponsored by student government at the Activities Building, Dan Trotter said that "after the meeting, the administration called us militants." In a sarcastic tone, Trotter stated that "they don't even know what a militant is." Loumos added that "(Dean( Dearborn told us that he's been through all this stuff of people calling him a pig and moving him out of his office .he hasn't been through shit. You know, he hasn't been kicked out, I mean kicked out of his office and thrown down the stairs, no one around here has had that happen to him." Trotter further explained that "it came close to that during the teacher firings, they panicked and locked up outside of the halls and closed their doors." Loumos added that "on other campuses we would be considered conservatives, but here they call us revolutionaries and subversives." He added, "that shows you where Parkside's at, it has an administration that is so afraid of a good, strong student government that they call us revolutionaries and subversives to justify themselves." When asked what student government's most important actions have been Dean said the "book exchange, the day care center, and our meetings have been the most significant things we've done. We've always got a quorum so we always function, the book exchange gave the students an alternative to buy books for less, from each other. i AN fin RW w* FTI WAWW A* ****** ft* ************** a* ft*** put wrwf SCHLITZ r *2" 12pack Mission Club Brandy — $3 35 5th Tuarsck Vodka— $2 98 5t)l Milshire Gin 52 98 5th Galliano — 57 98 5th Gallo Brandy $4 19 5th Would your club or organization like a • Wine Tasting Contact Fred Cook, 637-4101 Ask about assorted Case prices for parties Keg beer available with a few days notice F o l a n a r Italian Wi n es Soave Bardolino Valpolicella $*|98 5th P R I C E S GO O D T H R O U G H SU N D A Y A P R I L 1 6 T H IN RACINE AT WESTGATE ON HIGHWAY 20, WASHINGTON AVENUE AND OHIO STRE&T DAILY 9 A.NL TO 9*30 P.M.

"Another important result we've attained over the semester has been to force the people in Tallent Hall to be less sloppy. Now the same rules have to apply every day in the same way, they can no longer be inconsistent." What do you feel are the problems which student government will face in the future? "Number one is the sustainment of what we've done so far. I don't know if our efforts can be continued in the fall, though I hope so." Loumos continued "one of the reasons for this is the fact that students are not taught to apply what they learn from textbooks. Sociology students don't apply what they learn in Sociology to real life, and students don't apply what they learn in Sociology to real life, and students in general don't question the University processes around them, because they're orily taught to think in class. Let's face it, with an industrial mission, Parkside is turning out nuts and bolts for the corporate system, and the corporations don't measure things in human terms. The University bows to this mission every time they fire a professor who has been teaching his students to apply what he learns in class to real life situations." Trotter added that "no matter what you tell me I'll always believe they fired Art Williams and Doug LaFollette because they told their students to apply what they learned; they've always fired teachers like that and probably will continue to." Dean concluded the interview with the hope that more students will get involved because "you are what you do, and you do what you think. We can do a lot," he said, "but everyone has to realize it first." famous for CARL'S PIZZA In Four Sizes 9" - 12" - 14" - 16" ALSO • RIBS • SPAGHETTI • CHICKEN GNOCCHI • RAVIOLI • LA SAGNA • SEA FOOD • SANDWICHES CARRY-OUTS - DELIVERY "YOU RING . . .
