Solar Power" conference agreed that the basic decision to use solar energy is political in nature. Solar energy is already economically competitive in many areas and is internationally used. The speakers, all recognized authorities in the field of solar energy, in order of appearance were: Dr. John Duffie, director of the Solar Energy Laboratory at the University of Wisconsin in Madison ; John Kopecky, project engineer of Solar Energy at Honeywell, Inc. of Minneapolis, Minn.; William Heronemus, wind engineering systems expert and professor of engineering at the University of Massachusetts in Boston; and Dr. George Lof, president of the International Solar Energy Society. A near capacity crowd of over 655 persons filled the Communication Arts theater for the Midwest's first conference dealing with the practical application of solar energy. The conference began about 20 minutes behind schedule with a welcome by Edith Sobel, chairperson of the Racine-Kenosha Citizens for the Environment; that group co-sponsored the conference with the University of Wisconsin Extension and Parkside. Duffie, the first speaker, gave an overview of solar energy: its history, applications and successes. Duffie explained that the sun is a "fusion reactor" whose use as an energy resource is intermittent and of low density. The sun is intermittent since sunshiny predictably occurs only during the day but is unpredictable in terms of weather. The density of the sun is known as the "sun constant" or 1- 1.4 kilowatts (kw.) per square meter. Duffie showed slides of solar energy being used all over the world. In "Australia, where Duffie himself has lived, solar energy is the standard way of heating water. It is a 1.5 - 2 million dollar industry. Israel uses 20 percent solar heat for their water. Japan has sold half a million solar water heaters in the past. The main parts of the solar heating system are flat-plate collectors which trap the sun's heat through glass onto black metal on the roof, a storage tank, piping, and an auxiliary source of power if needed. When water tanks are located oh the roof, pumps are not needed. Duffie showed famous examples of solar energy use in the world from the Pyrenees of France to MIT's slanted-roof experimental house that was built in 1958. MIT's house was used for three seasons but then was dismantled in 1962 because it did not appear economically viable at that time. At about the same time the MIT house was built, Lof built a solar house that is still providing heat| hot water and air conditioning today. Besides flat plate collectors located on buildings for heat energy, experiments world-wide are being made on focusing collector systems that generate electricity. Focusing collector systems use mirrors and require maintenance to keep the mirrors shiny. Economic problems have not been solved yet and the generation of electricity by solar energy has a long way to go. Solid state devices used in Sky Lab have not been perfected for terrestial use and are too expensive at the present time. The basic reason solar energy has not been used is that until now, other sources have been inexpensive, especially natural gas. Oil, however, has tripled in cost over three years in Madison (where Duffie lives). Solar energy can now cost less than some of the other systems. An optimal amount of solar energy with an auxiliary source of power, is considered the most practical and economical system. Aesthetically, there are few problems which cannot be incorporated into a design as they were in Lof's house. It was Duffie's opinion that where we stand now is that the technology for solar heat is available; it is proven workable (as in Lof's house for over 15 years), and can be economically feasible in some areas. But the basic decision is political. It will become politically unacceptable soon to pour money into other countries for energy resources, said Duffie. Paul Sobel, introducing Kopecky, said that the sun is starting to look "green" now: solar energy can be a billion dollar industry to the business community. Honeywell, Kopecky's employer, mainly works with solar energy for central electric power and is building climate control systems at the earliest commercial feasibility, two projects they are working on in conjunction wit^the National Science Foundation. Kopecky showed slides of the six programs they are working on now, including a transportable solar lab; heating a junior high in Minnesota with collectors located near the building but not on the roof; heating post offices by solar energy roof collectors; designing a cheaper flat plate collector; researching selective coatings to insure more heat gain and less heat loss from collectors, and testing solar heated houses. Two bills introduced by Senators Humphrey and McCormick, propose a billion dollars in research funding over the next five years so solar power can continued on page 6 2 THE PARKSIDE RANGER Wednesday, October 30, 1974 •Editorial/Opinion. Letters to the editor His contributions In RANGER'S association with Chancellor Wyllie, we found him to be both receptive to and interested in students. He played the role of a watchful, guiding image to students who attended the University of WisconsinParkside. He took great pride when students confided in him! He tried to instill in these students a model of working within the university rather than outside the university. Although at times RANGER has disagreed with the Chancellor on certain policies, at no time did we fail to note the sincerity and diplomacy he displayed. Chancellor Wyllie was a sensitive man. There were many times when he faced tough decisions which he knew could not possibly please everyone. However, the long-range welfare of the university always came first to him. As Arthur Gruhl says this week in a letter to the editor, "He was the kind of administrator who thought not only with his mind but with his heart." During a ceremonial address, on July 1, 1969, at the new Wood Road campus, Chancellor Wyllie said, "We at Parkside strive for excellence and, at the same time, we will try. to reach out to new constituencies and new opportunities for young people and adults living in this area." He contributed much toward this goal. Parkside is a planned university, not the end product of haphazard growth and development. Through Chancellor Wyllie's dynamic leadership, the university grew from nothing to a $40 million campus with 5,261 students and about 250 faculty. In terms of size, Parkside is big enough to offer a broad and varied program, and small enough to permit easy personal contact and stimulating encounter among students, faculty and staff. Parkside has fit its academic program to the students, rather than the other way around. The passing of Chancellor Wyllie will leave a void at Parkside that will not soon be filled. The intellect and responsiveness of the man will be sorely missed. One has to wonder at the accomplishments that would lay in store for him had he not been taken at such an early age. But this type of contemplation means little when one becomes aware of the goals he set for himself and attained in the brief time that was allotted him. For RANGER, it was an experience to have known this truly remarkable man who devoted so.much to the building of this university. The staff of RANGER extends their heartfelt sympathy to the family of Irvin Wyllie. HZ The ParksideRAIMGER The PARKSIDE RANGER is a wholly independeni publication of the students of the U.W.

It was my pleasure to get to know Dr. Wyllie while I was attending Parkside. We weren't close friends, but good friends who enjoyed short visits together. Those occasions are now cherished membories. I was always impressed by his calmness and dedication to his job and the University. Since Parskde was, and still is, in its formative years, he faced problems which I am sure took their toll.

I hope that one of the facilities which will be built on the Parkside Campus in the years ahead will bear his name.

To retain government financing, Parkside is required to have the Union under construction by November l, 1974. To satisfy this requirement Parkside's Office of Planning and Construction, under the direction of J ames Galbraith, has closed a $7800 contract with Camosy Construction for site preparation. Site preparation involves no actual construction of the Union itself, but rather a fence erected around the construction site, installation of a sidewalk at the bus stop and the removal of all gravel now covering the site. Although Galbraith says he has "high hopes" that the Union will be ready for occupancy by the fall of 1976, his office is still frustrated by delays. The exterior sketch of the Union, drawn by architect Kenton Peters, was released Friday, October 25, four week overdue. Galbraith said that this delay was due to "refinement changes." The final architectural drawings were due October 15. Galbraith now hopes to have them to release to the bidders by mid-November. Barring any more delays, Galbraith expects to have the bids from contractors by midJanuary. Five separate contracts will be bid on. They are: general; heating, cooling and ventilating; electrical; plumbing; and equipemtn. Galbraith said that after bids are awarded, contractors will immediately begin to order construction supplies and "we'll probably see a bulldozer out there in March" of 1975. After that, speed of construction will depend heavily on weather-related problems. The crucial point will come in the late fall of 1975. If the summer has not seen heavy rainfall and if the building can be enclosed before cold weather sets in, interior construction will continue through the winter, making a fall '76 occupancy possible. Artists conception of the planned Student Union as seen from the South. Bazaar: hub of Union life View of the Student Union from the North parking lot. by Terrie Caffery The new St 1.dent Union may hold many answers to campus social needs after the four story building is completed in two years. Parkside students, as well as alumni, will be able to spend their spare time here, indulging in anything and eveything from bowling and good food to live entertainment and dancing. According to Bill Niebuhr, Director of Student Life, the building will be layed out as follows: The first floor, located one level underground, is the recreation area. It will include 8 bowling lanes with enough expansion room for 12, 8 billiard tables, 3 ping pong tables, plus various mechanical games such as foosball, airhockey, and pinball. Also on this floor will be a lounge area with a television set. The second multi-leveled floor is the main floor and will houge the 'Bazaar.' "The Bazaar can be compared to the present'Main Place' located in the Library Learning Center, and will be the center of activity," said Niebuhr. Directly off of the Bazaar will be an information desk, the box office, a number of lockers for student use, a sundry counter where such things as newspapers, magazines, cigars, and candy will be sold, and an Outing Area where students can rent various sports equipment. Skies, bikes, canoes, and camping and hiking necessities will be among the inventory of the Outing Center. A 400 seat cinema theater will also be located on the main floor. The theater will primarily be used for cinematic productions, however it will also be equipped with a small 12 foot stage for speakers or small groups. Lastly, a place called the "Rathskeller" will be found on this floor. "It will be a lounge with 'atmosphere'; a place where students can hang out," said Niebuhr. The Rathskeller will house a beerserving bar and a quick-order restaurant that will serve pizza, fish n' chips, and burger baskets. The restaurant will provide a stand-up counter as well as a number of booths situated on a multi-level base so that patrons can enjoy the comfort and privacy of a booth while eating, yet also be able to view any entertainment that may be performing on the stage in this area. The stage will be large enough to. accomodate singing roups, comedians, and one-act performances, and can also serve as an eating area when not in use as a stage. The Rathskeller will also be the action grounds for all dances. The third floor, at a concourse level, will be connected to the present Classroom Building by an enclosed bridge running above the loop road. This floor will house the main dining room. Niebuhr defines this particular facility as a cafeteria with a "scatter system" food service. The scatter system assures quick service by eliminating the long lines of a buffet system. Another lounge will be found off of the dining room area, and over Poking the Bazaar on the next lower floor. The rest of the space in the building has been reserved for business-connected activities associated with student affairs. Two meeting rooms for luncheons and student organizational meetings, assigned module desks where student organizations can permanently be situated, and unassigned cubicles that can be reserved upon request for other organizations are designed to be located here. The fourth and last level has been allocated for two more meeting rooms, a poster print shop, and offices of staff members that are associated with student affairs. These members will include the Director of Student Life Bill Niebuhr, two programmers, the Coordinator of Student Planning and his assistant, the Campus Advisor, bookkeeper, accountant, Coordinator of Auxiliary Services, the on-campus food service manager, and whoever will be in charge of receiving and custodial services at that time. Niebuhr gave the impression that the new Student Union and all of its facilities are definitely worth waiting for. JON BLON APPEARING WED.. FRI. SAT. & SUN.

What I then knew, and what anyone in Wisconsin then knew about new campus development was next to nothing. Son of an electrician, Wyllie was born and raised in Pittsburgh-like Kenosha, a heavy-industrial town. Much of his academic work centered on thinking of business leaders. Clearly the time squeeze is on. California takes the position that five years are needed to open any kind of higher education institution. We've got two-and-a-half. The first and most important lesson is that the most distinctive thing about new universities is that they are new, and that their newness requires them to address themselves to problems that are not of major concern on long-established campuses (crash building programs, overnight development of comprehensive academic plans, and the quick recruiting of entire new faculties, for example). The second and more dismal lesson is that the traditional system mechanisms available for the accomplishment of these tasks are hopelessly archaic. He graduated from Allegheny High School, Pittsburgh, with highest honors in 1937. Westminster College (Pa.) where Wyllie ranked first in his 1941 graduating class, honored the historian with its Alumni Achievement Award in 1965. Wyllie received his master's degree from Oberlin College, Ohio, in 1942 and his Ph.D. from Wisconsin in 1949. He served on the history faculty at the University of Maryland, 1947-48 and University of Missouri, 1948-57. No doubt about it, the development of new campuses has been infinitely more difficult here than in mainly other states. But that, together with the tighter time schedule with which we have had to work, gives us all the more pride in what we have been able to achieve in Wisconsin. Ideally, we were told, the mission should reflect the dominant activities of the region in which the University was located, and should meet the special educational needs of the people that it was created to serve. Thus did UW-Parkside make an early choice of its "industrial society" mission, a mission that seemed especially appropriate for southeastern Wisconsin. Along with that choice went a determination to meet the cultural and social as well and the business and technical needs of young people and adults who would live and work and try to fulfill their life's ambitions in this part of the state. A widely recognized scholar, teacher, and author, Wyllie has specialized in American social and intellectual history, and more recently in the history of American philanthropy. His book on "The Self-Made Man in America: the Myth of Rags and Riches" was selected for inclusion in the permanent White House Library, He is author of numerous articles in scholarly journals. Among American university campuses UW-Parkside is well on its way to becoming an architectural jewel. That will be increasinglv apparent when the Campus Union and the Modern Industry buildings are completed, when the new roadways are established, and when our natural landscaping plan has been fully implemented. It's inconceivable to me that we could be an effective missionoriented institution without the Modern Industry building and without provide 63 ® outreach caPa*»iHties such a building would 4 T HE PARKSIDE RANGER Wednesday, October 30, 19 74 | "He was a compassionate man.

Wyllie was much sought after for administrative posts In April and May of 1966 he was offered at least two college presidencies on the West Coast. While Chancellor at Parkside, he wis Ler consfderat on for the pres.denc.es of he Un.versity of Oklahoma (Norman, Okla ) and Northern Illinois University at DeKalb. They say it takes 10 years to measure a new campus. We have come to maturity much faster than anyone might reasonably have expected Highly visible achievements in the first three or four years are in the areas of student attraction, enrollment and academic offerings It is no accident that Parkside has been the fastest growing campus in the state since its opening in the fall of 1969. Not all of our students are heppy here, and not all of them find the specialized programs they need and want. But most do, and it is a fact that many more students transfer in than transfer out. What does our clouded crystal ball say of Parkside's future" Parkside will continue to grow, but at a slower rate than originally anticipated. This will occur at a time when other universities will be leveling off or falling back in their enrollments. In response to a slower rate of enrollment growth, the building program will probably slow down for a decade. I a m often asked, "When will the campus be complete, when will everything be finished?" The answer is, never. Harvard, America's first university, was founded in 1636. It is still a developing university, as Parkside will be through many years and many future generations! Wyllie's death on October 25, 1974 was due to an apparent heart attack. He is survived by his wife Harriet, son Gordon, daughters Kay and Laura, father Gordon, and the University of Wisconsin-Parkside, the institution he helped establish, build, and to which he gave so much.

Edith Sobel, chairperson of the Racine-Kenosha Citizens for the Environment, announced during the conference that the petitions were in the display room and outside the theater entrance. Besides letting national government know that the environment is important to the citizens of the U.S., Parkside students were given a chance to sign up for a new environmental group locally. Hank Cole, associate professor of Earth Science at Parkside, was handing out information addressed to "All sane people," concerning the subject: "Parkside Citizens for the Environment." The hand-out said that "a number of students and faculty at UW-P are forming an environmental action group...to increase the environmental awareness of the Parkside community and to work to protect and improve the environment of the Racine and Kenosha areas." An organizational meeting in the near future will be announced. New frat on campus Parkside will have its second nationally-affiliated fraternity on campus when a Lambda Chi Alpha colony is officially established with the initiation of the first 15 or so members on Saturday, November 9. Though the fraternity is just being organized, it is already planning some service projects, according to fraternity secretary Ron Bayer. "We will be giving Thanksgiving baskets to the needy, Christmas baskets and toys, and we are planning a campus clean-up in the spring."

Presently the officers are John Morris, President; James A. Foulke, Vice President; Ronald Bayer, Secretary; Robert Thomas, Treasurer ; and Richard Kenney, Chairman of the membership committee. One of the future plans of Lambda Chi is to have a fraternity house on campus, but most other plans will not be made until new members are initiated and the group is organized.

The only way solar energy is feasible, Kopecky contends, is through governmental participation. "We're not at cost yet," he said, but agreed with Duffie that "we are very close in some areas and maybe even closer than some say." When asked how governmental help can be obtained with the influence of major oil companies in the way, Kopecky answered, "A lot would say we can't but solar power looks better because others look a lot worse." State Senator Douglas LaFollette said it is "important to bridge the gap between science and politics...Duffie mentioned it: things work through politics." Each of us is responsible if we're going to move things into the political spectrum, said LaFollette. He discussed giving a tax break to users of solar heat or air conditioning because social, economic and political motivations are important. LaFollette, introducing Heronemus, a windpower expert, said his now-famous bill, Senate Bill 702, proposing the use of windmills, was laughed at by 32 of the 33 senators present. "I didn't laugh," he said. Jokes like "using the hot air of the legislature to propel those windmills" were made. Heronemus wrote a 50-page report for windmills in Wisconsin which LaFollette distributed in the state legislature. Heronemus bluntly asked the audience "Why are we here?" He proceeded by the use of charts to explain that the U.S. is "high on the hog," surpassing all other countries in increased energy consumption and correspondingly high Gross National Product. The first president who got around to establishing an energy policy was Nixon in 1971. But, Heronemus added, his treatment of the subject left much to be desired. Nixon's energy policy said that our way of life depended on exponential growth of energy in terms of gas, oil, coal and nuclear fuels. Solar energy was not mentioned. In essence, the report said that when our reserves ran out, we would continue to use gas and oil at the same rate by "putting the Almighty U.S. dollar on the table and getting some." After running out of uranium for our nuclear plants in 20 years, says Nixon's energy policy, we'd either trade on the international market or we'd convert to plutonium breeder reactors, which are considered dangerous. Heronemus called this idea of proliferating nuclear power plants the "most fallacious of all." Heronemus answered his original question, saying, "We are all here because this adds up to trouble. But is there a way out? Of course. Use the energy resource that is much jarger than all of this." Wind power must be able o t compete by providing electricity, not just when the wind blows, but it must be self-contained, reconverted, and available on demand. In some places, individual wind generators are cheaper to use than the flat plate collector. "If windmills are offensive to the sight that's too bad because they sure don't,belong underground," he said. Solar energy, however, can be harnassed under water, and this is where the largest potential for energy lies, said Heronemus. Questions were raised concerning possible effects on the oceans. Heronemus said that there were three opinions: that it would cool the ocean, it would heat the ocean, or it would have no effect. Heronemus doesn't believe that underwater solar energy collectors would harm the environment. He said it is almost impossible to make solar energy pollute, though "if we really worked at it, we might be able to screw it up." "Many of you will be living in solar-heated and maybe solar-cooled homes," Lof said. "I'm here to bring us back to earth by talking about the heating of buildings." The most important application of solar energy is water heating. Hot water runs Lof's cooling system, being the only solar-cooled system in a Northern Hemisphere building. Lof's house, which has been running for 17 years with no maintenance, has an air-heated system too. If the air in the furnace is not warm enough, an auxiliary heater turns on..There is also an auxiliary gas fired water tank. Some days, solar heating is used 100 percent and other days the auxiliary system is used 100 percent. He gave figures for two random days which showed both systems in use. By next summer a report should be out on how performance of the systems may have been affected by 17 years of use. Lof produced data showing that the cost of heating homes with electricity is more than with solar energy. This is not particularly true of gas, which is a bargain if it is available. Solar heating can compete with oil and propane, and may even be ahead, said Lof. "These figures are not for 10 years down the road or the 21st century, but for today." Solar heating can be incorporated into existing buildings which are reasonably close to new designs, said Lof. Either a flat roof is best or one that is sloping as nearly south as possible. The rest of the afternoon was spent in further analysis of solar energy in four different workshops. Each workshop was held twice and was attended by one of the four guest speakers and other guest panelists. Pure Brewed From God's Country.

Elections Committee chairperson Debra Friedell, .assisted by Kai Nail and John Kontz, will be responsible for cordinating elections and enforcing the rules. Of the ten standards proposed, PSGA rejected only one, a rule that would have required voters to leave books, leaflets or similar materials outside the voting booths. However, Election Committee member Kai Nail will ask students to voluntarily leave materials they are carrying at a table that will be set up outside the booth. Poll workers will be instructed to watch the materials while the student is voting. Citing an incident during the PSGA Inc. constitutional referendum when a marked ballot was found in a voting booth, Nail said, "to prevent that type of thing from reoccuring, we'll ask students to adopt the rule voluntarily." Required procedures at the polls will include a rule demanding voters to first produce a student I.D. The card will be punched by the poll worker and the voter's name will be crossed off a computer printout sheet also containing social security numbers and academic majors of a ll Parkside students. liie printout will be considered confidential material until elections are terminated. According to Nail, there have been requests by potential candidates to obtain copies of the list for campaigh purposes. In fact, some members of PSGA Inc.

To prove that such a possibility exists, Nail said, "Senators Hahner and Eric Bingen openly told me that they wanted the printout to get the names and majors of students for campaign purposes." Both Hahner and Bingen are presidents of student organizations running senatorial candidates in this election. Other rules approved by PSGA grant the Elections Committee and PSGA Inc. the responsibility of handling and storing ballots. No candidates, electioneers or government official other than PSGA Inc. may review or handle ballots until elections are officially over. The date of expiration is yet to be determined. The rules also require that poll workers may not participate in any campaign and all volunteers for poll positions must be screened by the Elections Committee. An Election Committee member will be present at the polls at all times. According to Nail, poll workers are needed. Anyone wishing to volunteer may contact PSGA Inc. or any member of the Elections Committee.

An old route, new to many Parkside students this semester, is Yoga. Instructed by Carol (Chandra) Merrick, the class is an enlightening mental and physical experience. Chandra is Carol's chosen Indian name meaning "moon." Chandra claims that Yoga must be experienced to be completely understood. In the accompanying picture, Chandra is practicing the popular Yoga hand position. The thumb, representing the universe, is joined with the forefinger, representing the person. Representing the "tamasic," "rajacic" and "sattvic" states, the other three fingers point outward. The little finger in the "tamasic" state stands for questioning one's life and not wanting an answer. The fourth finger in the "rajacic" state stands for questioning one's being or anything and only wanting reaffirmation. The third finger in the "sattvic" state stands for questioning with a "pure" mind~to really want the answer. When a person (forefinger) goes through these three states, he or she becomes one with the universe (thumb), and the two fingers join to make a circle. This is Yoga. In Yoga the mind is calmed through meditation or "mantra." Meditative positions called "asanas" are used to increase total awareness of the internal as well as external forces acting upon the body. Dr. Richard Alpert describes the study of Asanas in Be Here Now in the following way: "In undertaking Asanas it is desirable to have a teacher who can demonstrate the correct positions and correct any bad habits that develop in your performance of the Asanas." Through proper breathing, one can remain motionless in these positions for long periods of time with little effort. To guarantee proper breathing, it is necessary to clear the mucus from one's nose, throat and chest area prior to meditation. This is done by placing the thumb on the right nostril and the fourth finger on the left. While pressing the thumb against the nostril, release the fourth finger and exhale with gusto. Reverse and repeat again and again until the passage is clear. To clear excess mucus from the throat and chest area, the "Bramidi" technique is used. Sitting up straight in the lotus position, take a deep breath, inhale and snore. These cleansing methods will improve breathing and posture, they will achieve calmness, and hopefully utilize the "prana" or energy created in order to proceed with the Asanas or meditation. At this point, one can arrive at a certain neutrality of the senses where consciousness is no longer troubled by the presence of the body. In Yoga, mental and natural powers are looking to you to give you something that you have never experienced before. These powers will enrich you with divine and everlasting energy. Before birth and after death, where no material things can go with you, natural forces will be serving you. Parkside will host various regional and national U.S. Track and Field (USTFF) cross country championships Saturday, Nov. 2, over the challenging Parkside running trails.
