UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document Phasing down by Paul Anderson of RANGER Staff MADISON — The University of Wisconsin Board of Regents, Friday, unanimously approved a set of "guideline recommendations" drafted by central administration to meet Gov. Patrick J. Lucey's request for special plans that might be utilized in reducing the scope of the UW System over the next decade. The guidelines were included in a 100 page report which UW System President John C. Weaver presented to the board at a special meeting held here. The report includes proposed criteria for phasing out and phasing down two-year centers and four-year universities if the state decides to reduce the scope of the UW system. The "phase down" would be carried out over a six-year period and three campuses, UW Richland Center, UW Baraboo, and UW Medford would face closure under the criteria. The criteria specify full-time equivalent enrollment of 250 and campus operating cost within 20 percent of the system average costs. However, the report stresses that no substantial savings will be realized by closing down campuses or centers unless those students and faculty affected are not reabsorbed by some other UW campus. The report, representing a synthesis of studies and analysis conducted by Weaver, UW Central Administration and a System Advisory Planning Task Force, has been submitted to the Governor and State Legislation for consideration in the 1975-77 state budget. The special task force was formed following Gov. Lucey's directorate on January 8 which requested the UW System "to bring to him and the Legislature" by April 18 "a plan for phasing out, phasing down, or consolidating institutions and programs, including a statement of laneuaee to be inserted into the 1975-77 biennial budget which would authorize implementation of the plan." Weaver addressed specific problems dealt with in the report during a half-hour introductory speech. He said that an attempt to educate the forecasted influx of 6,000 new students in the coming biennium without increased state support would be "an inescapable proscription for irreversible mediocraty." He added that if t he Governor's prediction holds true that the UW's "fiscal future" includes no increases in state support beyond present levels, except for salary adjustments and inflation price increases, then the University "cannot provide educational opportunity for all the Wisconsin citizens who would, if permitted, seek such services." If the Legislature does not supply the resources necessary to educate additional students, he said, "then it is clear that the size of the system must be reduced, and an unequivocal Legislative directive must be given to the system to take some action." , Weaver added that such a directorate "would represent a most fateful public policy choice for the State of Wisconsin." The report outlines a dilemma faced by Wisconsin: "On the one hand," said Weaver, "we have a commitment to serve Wisconsin citizens and can profit from high educational opportunity," Yet, he continued, "We cannot serve effectively a constantly growing demand for our services on tbe basis of static real dollar resources." Weaver said that just to replace the $19-million eroded from UW supply budgets by inflation in the 1973-75 would mean the "complete elimination of two of our smaller four-year universities or the entire fourteen campus center system." And this would only hold true if "the student and faculty of those campuses would no longer be a responsibility of the system," he added. The report is also critical of o ne of the assumptions underlying continued on page 4 Mark Lukas, five-and-a-half son of Barbara Lukas at the jurying of the student art show. Pictures on page 6 The Parkside RANGER Wedne sday , April 23, 1975 Vol. Ill No. OAntCfS 'WHY, YES, SENATOR—THERE IS ONE WAY YOU COULD USE YOUR I NFLUENCE TO HELP GET US INTERESTED IN SOLA R ENERGY../ Two part series Nuclear survey by Geoff Blaesing Despite plans for a "Nuclear America" by the turn of the century, most of those questioned in a recent survey here at Parkside knew little about nuclear. The average score among the total of 202 students, faculty and staff surveyed was 40.2 percent. Students averaged 38.87 while faculty members scored an average of 45.73. The survey, conducted during January by members of Prof. Henry Cole's Environmental Communications class, was based on a similar, but lengthier study conducted by the University of Wisconsin in Kewaunee and Manitowoc Counties last year. When a power company , d ecides to build a nuclear power plant on site, many groups of government officials and local residents usually have much to say-pro or con-about the chosen site. The decision whether or not to build the plant at the site chosen is usually a complex and involved process involving many different groups competing for the same limited resources. The power company may have chosen a site along the shore of an inland lake, but environmentalists may want to preserve this same land against such development. Other groups of citizens may want to use the land for residential use or farming. The use or non-use of the land for any of these pruposes continued on page 7 33- Kenosha jail Critical need by Susan Shemanske of RANGER Staff On October 4, .1973 t he Kenosha Labor ran a story on the overcrowded conditions at the Kenosha County jail. In that same month the County Board hired the Arthur Young Association of Milwaukee to conduct a feasibility study of the Sheriff's administration-jail facility. The study's conclusion was that the "present building is very inadequate for present day use as a law enforcement and detention facility." Eighteen months later (since the Labor story) the County Board is finally taking the first steps toward a new jail facility, although Supervisor Angelo Capriotti says it will be at least two years before any groundbreaking is done. What is holding up the construction of a new Sheriff's administration-jail facility? It is most likely due to bureaucratic red tape and a reluctance to increase local property taxes. Supervisor Capriotti, chairman of the 15-member Jail Study Committee (a subcommittee of the County Board) said, "You're just not going to run out and spend the taxpayers' money." The Board is counting on revenues from the Pleasant Prairie electricity generating plant (to be started next year by Wisconsin Electric) to pay for the jail without having to increase taxes. The County Board authorized the Jail Committee to check into all aspects of the feasibility study and to examine the costs and requirements forbuilding a new jail. The Jail Committee's first step will be to visit a number of other jails in similar-size counties. Captain Roger Schoenfeld, head of Research and Planning in the Sheriff's Department, presented a list of jails to the committee to choose from. Recommendations were made in terms of n ewer facilities, joint city-county facilities and possible worthwhile correctional programs. Among the facilities recommended were the jails in Outagamie County (Appleton, Wis.), Kane County (Geneva, 111.), Winnebago County (Rockford, 111.), and Kalamazoo County (Michigan). The Jail Study Committee agreed-along with other city and county officials-that the present facilities are grossly inadequate. They feel that a new facility-rather than remodeling the present one-would be the solution. The building itself is over 50 years old. A M ilwaukee architectural firm, Brust-Zimmerman Inc., was brought in to analyze the existing facility from a structural standpoint. They found numerous violations of current requirements governing Places of Detention (Wisconsin State Standards); however, corrections are mandatory because continued on page 6 2 THE PARKSIDE RANGER Wednesday, April 23, 1975 Issue* To the Editor: When people run for political office they need issues in order to get the attention of the voters. One ca ndidate for the upcoming P.S.G.A. election has discovered an old issue. Unfortunately, Tom Olson sees fit to only comment on it now, when quite obviously he needs your attention and, not to mention your vote. Mr. Olson was no where to be seen during the open hearings dealing with the new student union at which time it was brought to the attention of the administration that the HUD contract called for an improved STUDENT Health Center in the new union. I was present at that hearing, the only student to speak on this issue at that meeting, and I contacted the STUDENT nurse and tried to work out an alternative site i.e. Student Union, Classroom building. I have discussed this matter with the DEAN of Students and Student Life Officials and one of the proposals that came out of this was the possible location in the soon to be vacated Buffet Room. Letters were sent to the Regents and State Officials. Work is still going on in trying to find an alternative location for the HEALTH CENTER. Tom Olson still has to contribute anything of substance as to the new location of the HEALTH CENTER. Furthermore, I wish that Mr. Olson would have contributed some valuable time to the P.S.G.A., Inc. in the studying of the HUD CONTRACT and the subsequent discussions with the STUDENT nurse, Open Hearing meeting, Campus Concerns Comm., Mr. Dearborn, and Student Life Official. Political Opportunism in any form does not belong in Student Government let alone to be used as a tool to fool the Students on this campus. Tom Olson where was your concern last semester? Dennis Milutinovich President, P.S.G.A. Inc A failure to communicate Togetherness To the Students: PSGA Inc. needs people willing to devote time and energy in solving the many problems that face this campus. PSGA Inc. needs people willing to work, representing the students and at the same time realizing that arguing over personal differences cannot solve problems. PSGA Inc. needs people willing to work together in bringing about an effective government, one that accomplishes, solves, and yet is efficient and cohesive. Parkside presently lacks a government that is responsive to the needs of the students. What Parkside presently has is a government which does not Implementation To the Students of Parkside: P.S.G.A. in the past has had difficulty in the implementation of its programs which we believe is a result of their lack of organization and their lack of cooperation With the administration. We propose the implementation of concrete, realistic, and practical programs that will benefit the commuting command the respect of either the students, the administration, the regents, or the local community. This campus needs a government that is more vocal in stating what it is attempting to do and more importantly, what it has already accomplished. Parkside needs a government that presides in a regular place, at an established time, so students will know where and when to go to voice their opinions, problems, and to find out what is being done about them. If elected I will endeavor to accomplish the goals that are established by the students. Cooperating with other Senators and branches of government will be a challenge. I will meet this challenge. Name calling and personal differences will not intimidate my pursuit of this challenge. In brief, if elected I will represent you, the student, in overcoming the problems that face this campus and particularly, this student government. PSGA Inc. can be a very viable organization. But only if it has members who participate with the realization that they represent the students. This, I will do. Thank you, Please vote April 23 & 24 Mainplace Ed Bielarczyk students and satisfy the administration. In our platform, our major contentions are to develop a more flexible add-drop policy and to allocate segregated fees to the interests of the majority on an objective basis. We realize that many students are at Parkside are not able to become involved in the organizations and events that are supported by their tuition dollars. We propose to stimulate involvement by supporting allocations that can be used by the most students. Finally, we suggest that all the students become involved by voting in the coming election-it doesn't cost a cent! William G. Ferko and Gerald E. Ferch Political promises To the Editor: As the current president of P.S.G.A. Inc. I feel I have an obligation to respond to some of the statements made by John Kontz in the RANGER issue of April 9, 1975. The direct cause of P.S.G.A. Inc.'s failure to get things accomplished is not due to a lack of power, as stated by John, rather it is due to the fact that the Protern of the Senate generates very little leadership within the Legislative Branch of P.S.G.A. Inc. How much power does an organization need in order to print a MONTHLY SENATE JOURNAL. How much power is needed to get the Senate Minutes to the EXECUTIVE Branch within 2 weeks, instead of anywhere from 3 weeks to a month and even a couple of months. Because of this inability several students (Ms. Scott, Mr. Kennedy, Mr. N. Jones) were never placed on very important Faculty Comm. I have still to receive those minutes. I have one set of Minutes dated SEP. 26, 1974, the next set is OCT. 24,1974. There are no Minutes dated inbetween. I can only draw 2 conclusions: 1) John did not call any meetings between the 26th of SEPT. and the 24th of Oct. If this is the case, John is then in violation of the STUDENT CONSTITUTION. 2) The minutes are yet to be typed and given to the EXECUTIVE BRANCH. On DEC. 9,19741 appointed Mr. N. Jones to head my Minority Affairs Dept. John Kontz sent that nomination to a SENATE Comm. It has been there ever since. If you ever get a chance to see Student Govt's. Minutes, you will see that most motions are sent to comm. by John and there they promptly die. Much more could be stated but the best thing to do is to ask John Kontz for copies of YOUR STUDENT GOVT. MINUTES. As you read them you will see what could have been accomplished but never was, due to ineffective leadership within the P.S.G.A. Inc. Senate. It wasn't any sense of power that P.S.G.A. Inc. needed, just EFFECTIVE and RESPONSIBLE leadership. John's campaign issues fine but he has had almost an entire year to work on them. Look at the minutes and you can see t hat he hasn't. So I ask you, why should we the STUDENT BODY believe that he will accomplish these things as President of P.S.G.A. Inc. when he couldn't do it as President ProTern of the Senate. As for myself, I have no intentions of running for re-election for one very important reason: I, John Kontz and .several other senators have been involved in petty personal squabbles that accomplished one thing--not getting anything done for you the students. For this I apologize. Student Govt must be a unifying force on this campus, for then and only then will the students be truly represented. The time has come for new responsible leadership within all levels of P.S.G.A. Inc. Most important of all, we must have a STUDENT GOVT, president that hasn't been involved with the non-accomplishments and vindictiveness of this Govt. We must have a unifier as President, and in my opinion John Kontz is not that person. Hopefully, you will be able to question John and the other other candidates during the CANDIDATE FORUMS April 17 and 21, MAIN PLACE. Dennis Milutinovich President, P.S.G.A. Inc. Under most circumstances the choice to endorse or not to endorse a candidate for an office he is running for is a difficult decision. In last week's RANGER a decision to endorse Lee Wagner and Kai Nail was announced and the reasons were given for the endorsement. At that point in time the decision to endorse Lee and Kai was an easy one, as they offer the only viable slate of candidates for the positions of President and Vice-President of PSGA. At this point in time the actions of the RANGER in endorsing these two are even easier, not because of the actions of these two, but because of the actions of their opponents. On April 17, 1975 the RANGER Advisory Board met to choose an editor for next year's RANGER. It was during this meeting that John Kontz and Tom Olson presented a list of demands to the Board for their consideration. These demands were the result of a mistake that appeared in last week's RANGER. Due to a typographical error, the names of these two did not appear at the bottom of their platforms. This was explained to these two and we promised to run their platform again this week. The demands that were given to the Advisory Board were 1) reprint the platform on page one with a headline; 2) apologize publicly (on page one) for the error; 3) print and distri bute 2 0 0 0 c o pie s o f a public apoloqy a \ - RANGER expense. In the Kontz-Olson literature that is being distributed these two call for a responsible student government and for student representation on some faculty committees The Merger implementation Law (36.09(5) Wisconsin Statutes) delegates the responsibilities and powers of self-government to STUDENTS. Despite the insistence on the rights of the students on this campus, these two made their demands, not to this student newspaper but to a FACULTY DOMINATED COMMITTEE If t'hesl two are really serious about what they say, why do thev forget?their platforms even before the ejections have Most politicians at least have the decency to wait until the election is over before they forget the promises they have made to their voters. We of the RANGER erf tired of these tactics. We of the RANGER feel that a campaign issue is a promise between the renn;H-»+ i thecodont body. VOTE LE (^ WAGNER ANC)S KAI Delays THE PARKSIDE RANGER Wednesday, April 23, 1975 3 To the Editor: The P.S.G.A. Inc. elections were delayed for one week due to the fact that the original election rules would have forced the students to cast one vote for two people (the President and VicePresident would have run together and been placed on the ballot together.) The President of P.S.G.A. Inc. felt that this would have denied the students the right of voting for the most qualified person for the offices in question. The Senate recalled the bill and made the necessary changes that ensured a fair and open election. Because of the time element involved, P.S.G.A. Inc. was forced to delay the elections by one week. Also to be placed on the April 23 and 24 ballots were numerous amendments to the P.S.G.A. Inc. Constitution. Many dedicated people within Student Gov't and non-student Gov't people worked very hard during the second semester to get these amendments before you, the students. It seems now that you will not have that opportunity. John Kontz, President Pro-Tempore of the Senate, delayed calling a Senate meeting until April 11, 1975. At this meeting he stated that the terms of office had expired for all of the At-Large senators and the president of P.S.G.A. Inc. Therefore, according to John Kontz these people would not be able to act on any business. Because of his irresponsible actions he has quite possibly denied the students of this university the right to vote on the proposed amendments. These amendments were to have been brought up at this meeting. The Merger Law and our Constitution play a very important role on this campus. These two documents lay down the very foundation of STUDENT CONTROL OVER STUDENT AREAS OF CONCERN e.e. Segregated fees, Student Governance. These are all now in jeopardy of b eing lost due to Mr. Kontz's actions. Because John Kontz did not call a meeting earlier in the week, and instead called an unusual Friday meeting, we feel that he has played right into the hands of CENTRAL ADMINISTRATION. Central Administration has stated that they feel the Board of Regents should not ratify this Constitution or any other student constitution until Nov. 5, 1975 o r Their reasoning was because they felt that many of the campuses hadn't yet finalized their guidelines and Student Constitutions. P.S.G.A. Inc. was ready to finalize the Student Constitution during the week of April 6, 1975 and present it to the students for ratification or rejection on April 23 and 24. Because of Kontz's actions the STUDENT Body in all likelihood will not be able to vote on the amendments until Fall semester 1975, IF EVER. You would have thought that in a matter of such importance John Kontz would have called a meeting earlier in the week whereupon the Senate would have acted on the amendments and placed them on the ballots. Calling a meeting earlier in the week would have also allowed the senate to ask for legal advice concerning the question of when do the terms of office expire. After the April 11 meeting the President of P.S.G.A. Inc. and Senator Vlach contacted Attorney Siefert and were informed that the P.S.G.A. Inc. officials in question hold office until replaced by new officers. If the Constitutional Amendments do not appear before the student body on April 23 and 24, which does not seem probable at this moment, John Kontz must bear the responsibility. We condemn his actions as not befitting a person elected to represent the interests of the STUDENT BODY. Robert G.

There was a phrase with in it that said, "As it is above, so it is below." I find that particular old saying pertinent in relatively all walks of our existance. The Cabal, for those of u s with lack of familiarity, shows itself riot to be the unrealistic mystical hog-wash that 'one may first acquaint with it's name. For with serious attention and analytic intensions one might find it to hold certain truths to be evaluated as enevitable and selfevident in our present day and time. Allow me to demonstrate my point. According to the Cabala we are now existing in the age when the sun equinoxes in Aquarious and is opposite of Leo. This is the time in which it has been said that men will equal the feats of the gods. The once mystifying would become crystal clear with knowledge and understanding. And man has equaled feats of legendary gods who flew in the air, threw their voices across the world, moved great lengths in the depths of the seas, caused great geographic catastrophies and walked on the moon! Yes, these are the feats of gods. But we have yet to mature in the pure knowledge and understanding of true necessity in virtues of democratic freedom, humanistic justice, opportunity equality and nuclear peace. Ironically these feats are the true feats of gods. These are the undodgable tasks of a surviving human race... if i t is to survive. There are those in strong and purposely well sanctioned positions of power that market ideas to masses of people inhibiting them from the capabilities of aggressively participating in the assurance program of their own survival. Thr oug h p o lit ica l, psychologically communicative warfare people are lead to believe they have no power. They are lead to concede they need no power. They are left to submission, admitting they deserve no power, regarding themselves as ignorant. Thus many anxiously choose to resign themselves from any knowledge or siege of authority constitutionally guaranteed to "the people." Of co urse if we are to survive, this idea must be abandoned. If we are going to live in a dem ocra tica lly supe rindustralized capitalist nation we must all involve ourselves to make it work. We must find a way to control the international super money crimes we pay over 10 billion of our tax dollars for annually. I speak here of the embezzlement, price fixing, exploitations of in finitely various forms, and of course wars. The list goes on... We must demand humanity be included in the interest of our medical and food services. Let us market ideas of pure dietary habits and not hypochondrea. We must fashionize education toward diplomatic awareness of the whole world around us; politically, monetarily, and socially. We must all mentally migrate to accomplish a reality of international peace, cooperation, and restraint. We must seek out these who will effectively represent us, and we must recognize them as our representatives. But firstly we must be aware. We must not be swade by some expensive and clever promotional propaganda. If the shoe hasn't given a comfortable fit in the last 5 years, it is unlikely to give one in this year or the next. The masses must learn the art o f e v a l u a tin g and balancing information into the production of beneficial truth. If we are to survive past the mere dawning of Aquarious. and truly perform the feats of gods. And know this: "As it is above, so it is below!" On all levels of business, and government, and society. Events happen in relative correlation of one another. As there is international chaos, so it is right here in the midst of this educational institution. Be aware and involve yourself in determining truth for the betterment and essential survival of fellow mankind and yourself! written by: Sandra A.

The crucial challenge now is to hold the high ground of confidence, courage, and faith that is rightly ours, and to avoid the quicksand of fear and doubt." President Richard M. Nixon, July 4,1971 "As wolves will appear in sheep's-cloathing, so superlative knaves and parricides will assume the vesture of virtue and patriotism." Josiah Quincy, 1774 The American Revolution is familiar to all of u s as a series of battles, dates, and founding fathers. But above all else, the American Revolution was a social movement-an uprising of people who launched a war for independence to secure for themselves the "inalienable rights" of "Life, liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness." It was common people-farmers, laborers, artisans-not well-known leaders, who died in the Boston Massacre. Common folks, in communities from New Hampshire to Georgia, enforced the economic boycotts against unfairly taxed British imports. And common men and women (one out of every three, by most accounts) read Tom Paine's "Common Sense" and called for independence months before Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence. As the 200th anniversary of the American Revolution nears, individuals and organizations in every community in the country are presented with the opportunity to participate in a new social movement aimed at reaffirming our revolutionary past; at reliving the ideals of the Spirit of '76. In the years leading up to 1976, e very American, in one way or another, will take part in the Bicentennial-Nixon and his corporate buddies, by pouring literally hundreds of millions of dollars into "Bicentennial" programs have made sure of that. (Indeed, one White House aide has spoken of the "Bicentennialization" of America.) The issue, clearly, is how will over 200,000,000 Americans participate. Through the Tory celebration of the White House and big business? Or through a program initiated by the people of America, for the people of America—in short, a Patriot's Observance. Community organizations that wish to think clearly about our 200th Anniversary should distinguish between the Bicentennial as a - Celebration and the Bicentennial as a set of challenges. The Bicentennial as a celebration means Tom Paine post cards, red-white-andblue street signs, radio and television programs extolling the virtues of America around the clock, Sara Lee Bicentennial Birthday Cake, and the rest of i t. The Bicentennial as a set of challenges, however, means using the occasion to raise serious questions about whether America today lives up to the principles for which the American Revolution was fought. Nor is the opportunity a frivolous one. Today we are besieged with commentators who tell us that we are a middle-class society that values property and security over everything else. Such questions as the gap between rich and poor, between corporate and social wealth, between the majority and ethnic minorities, they say, might interest a few fuzzy-headed reformers, but no one else. People are too busy holding onto what they have. Therefore, the argument concludes, activists should turn the business of politics over to pragmatists in both parties who know best how to hold society together Bud Drinkers, can you figure this out? Ralph bought a 6-pak of Rudweiser- and invited four friends over to share It. Since he bought, he expected to have two cans to himself, but unfortunately when he returned to the refrigerator for his second, he found it missing. So he asked who took it. A1 said,"Joe drank it." Joe said, "Dan drank it." Dan said, "Joe, that's a lie!" And Rill said, "I didn't drink it." If only one of these statements is true, who really drank it?

"America is the only nation in the world that is founded on a creed," G. K. Chesterton wrote many years ago. "That creed is set forth with dogmatic and even theological lucidity in the Declaration of Independence; perhaps the only piece of practical politics that is also theoretical politics and also great literature. It enunciates that all men are equal in their claim to justice, that governments exist to give them that justice, and that their authority is for that reason just." Yet there are those who, in the name of p atriotism, would undermine this creed and the documents that define it. These people surely do need a Bicentennial-or some comparable occasion-to refresh their memory about what the founding fathers and mothers said this country was supposed to represent. Here is where a community-based Peoples Bicentennial celebration can perform an enormous service. The Bicentennial, in turn, can perform a service to community organizations. There is truth to the notion, after all, that people fight only for the familiar, not the unfamiliar. Who will take risks for something that he or she doesn't even understand? If we wish to encourage citizensto fight for high values, then we must articulate them in terms that we all understand, in language we all share and respect. What do we want, if not a renewed realization that we must take the ancient principles of liberty and justice seriously in our everyday lives? Why not then borrow precedents from the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and the Bill of Rights-documents we were all brought up on-rather than from writers whom few people have even read? This is what the Bicentennial enables us to do, with devastating effect, if we choose to take the opportunity. Consider, for example, a Bicentennial celebration that merely attempted to adhere to five central principles of the American Revolution: "Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness"; "No Taxation Without Representation"; "Don't Tread On Me"; "Rebellion to Tyrants is Obedience to God"; and "Only Lay Down True Principles." It would be a far cry from the Bicentennial celebration that our government is presently planning. Let's examine the possibilities. Hie White House will try to use the Bicentennial to glamorize the role of in dividuals in pulling themselves up by their own bootstraps without assistance from unions, community organizations, and the federal government. It will ignore the cooperation and mutual aid that were standard in the colonies and on the frontier. Ordinary citizens whould use the Bicentennial to examine the quality of life within their communities-to determine whether it fulfills the principles for which the Revolution was fought. The Declaration of Independence does not say that "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" are privileges, to be attained by an individual's ability to exploit other people. These are rights; governments are created to secure them. The community is the instrument through which they are to be realized. Therefore, if a community establishes a Bicentennial Commission composed entirely of businessmen, reactionary leaders, and professional socialites, citizens must create a local Peoples Bicentennial Commission, composed of labor leaders, community-control advocates, and representatives of both working people and the poor. In this case, professional mavericks will not do, and even prominent citizens without tangible constituencies should play secondary roles. For once, a people's operation should actually represent the people. Kentucky Derby FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Who will win the 101st running of the Kentucky Derby?

Lucey assumed that enrollments will drop in t he next decade because of a forecasted drop in Wisconsin's 18-year-old population. The report points out, however that the projections relied upon by the Governor were those prepared, by the UW Sy stem to guide short-term budget decisions and longer term faculty construction decisions. Their projections (until now) were based on birthrates and 18-yearold age pools, and did not include the increasing number of older students enrolling in UW programs. "Our students indicate that the current methodologies for projecting future enrollment levels are not adequate for addressing scope reduction decisions extending beyond the next four years," said Weaver in - the prologue of the report. He added that "it not only remains true that we will face increasing enrollments through the end of the 1970's but it is altogether possible that we will face increases (rather than modest declines) in the 1980's as well." Four alternative approaches to the projection of student enrollments were outlined in the report. Under one of the approaches the Age Strata: Trend Approach-the projections include the proportion of the State population in the age group 23 years of age and older. Weaver said that if the proportion of older students (age 18 to 64) continues to increase as it now is, "The system will have 20,000 more students in 1990 than at present." He said that the UW System and Legislature should not assume an enrollment decline after 1983, as predicted by the Governor. Specifics on Parkside As a whole, the report went into little specific detail on each of the universities studied. However, Parkside is listed as the second smallest four-year university studied, with UW Superior being the smallest. A second phase of the task force studies will consider the economic and social effects of phasing out Parkside and five other four-year campuses in more detail. The Phase II studies will be completed by August 31, 1975. All of the Regents commended Weaver, the task force and central administration for meeting the Governor's requests within the difficult time constraints with a complete and consice report. UW Vice President Donald. Percy said the cost of t he report including simulation studies and analysis was about $50,000. Weaver offered a revision of tha t figure, claiming that with additional time given to completing the studies within the time limits, a more likely estimate would be a quarter-of-a-million dollars.

These pamphlets present attractive promises of job options, good training, training that will be useful in civilian life, free college education, travel, choice of duty stations, high pay, fast promotion, and security. To' many people faced with high tuition fees or an uncertainty of any kind of future these promises are quite alluring. In reality though, no recruiter can keep any promise he makes to a recruit.

The Gamma Beta chapter of Pi Sigma Epsilon of t he University of Wisconsin-Parkside was awarded the runner-up Special Events trophy at the 1975 na tional convention. Receiving the award were Cindy Gray, Bob Petrouske, Bob Unger, Pete Fitzgerald, David Brandt and advisor Richard Yanzito. The award was presented to Gamma Beta for their efforts in the American Cancer Society Promotion of the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Hockey Tournament. The drive raised $1,600.00. The convention was held this past weekend in St. Louis, Missouri, and its theme was "Strides in '75." Pi Sigma Epsilon is a professional marketing, sales and sales management fraternity and is affiliated with Sales and Marketing Executives of Racine and Kenosha. A UW-Parkside history professor, John D. Buenker, is among nine Wisconsin scholars named winners of Guggenheim Fellowship awards for 1975. Seven of the winners are from UW-Madison and the sixth from UW-Eau Claire. They are among 308 national Guggenheim winners. Prof. Buenker's award is for a 12-month period beginning next September. During that time he will be on leave from his teaching duties at Parkside and will be researching a forthcoming book on "The Dynamics of Reform in the Progressive Era." Buenker received his M.A. and Ph.D. degrees from Georgetown University. He taught at Georgetown, Eastern Illinois University, Indiana State College of Pennsylvania and Prince Georges College before coming to Parkside in 1970. rip-off instructing a company of m en in the fine art of riot control or an infantry man seated in a supply office meandering through a stack of clothing requisitions. Travel many times is the sum total of moving from one duty station to another, not necessarily the one guaranteed you. A NORC survey showed that only 33 p ercent recruits receive training that would be useful in civilian employment. In fact most MOS training courses last fewer than 25 we eks, many last under 20 weeks. For example, The "elite" of the Marine Corps supply system is supposedly the MOS 3042, mechanized supply, Their training last a whole four weeks including an intense typing class, three days. High pay incentives are false or misleading in some cases. In Boston Puerto Ricans were led to believe that they would be paid from $300-$400 pe r month. They were, for the first six months. After that the pay dropped to $40 per month for their remaining five-and-a-half years. The House Armed Service Committee admitted that the Navy made promises they could not keep. U.S. Representative John J. Rooney (D-NY) exposed an incident where young men were told that it was mandatory for them to visit a recruiter. In Plymouth, Michigan, recruiters informed graduates that this visit was part of their draft obligation. It would be wise of anyone planning on enlisting in the U.S. military to READ THE FINE PRINT, know your selective service obligations, and do not sign anything. Article 83 of the Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) states that all terms of the contract are binding on the enlistee but not on the service. This means that if you are guaranteed a specific MOS (Military Occupational Specialty) there is nothing to stop the service from changing it, or placing you in another position. It is not uncommon to find a Supply man And on 13 June 1973 the Pentagon admitted that, as a result of an investigation by its Criminal Investigation Division over 37 states, 107 recruiters were reassigned due to false recruitment practices. Where is our defense money going? In 1973 the advertising budget for bumper stickers, access to high school graduation lists, TV. ads, career days to show the glamor and security of military life was, in the millions of d ollars: Army $26.7 Navy $21.5 Air Force $12.8 Marine Corps $6.5 It seems quite obvious that the only parts of military life that are left unexploited are the UCMJ and the small print. *76e Stai' Stofi 194 4 90 1 PRESENTS* Coming Attractions BLOOD M ONEY April 25 DR.

In their inspection Brust-Zimmerman found numerous water closets in cell blocks which had been broken and not yet replaced (Dec. 1974). They said that there is an inability to match plumbing connections with newer fixtures. Some of the core areas of the jail have insufficient air quantities. Summertime ventilation does not meet present-day standards because of the lack of individual controls in the air conditioning system. The fire alarm system is substandard relative to code compliance. Lighting is very poor. Brust-Zimmerman concluded that if the building continues as a jail, it will be difficult (almost impossible in some areas) to bring the building to complete code compliance. The greatest problem faced by the present facility is overcrowding. The present capacity of the jail is 66 in cluding Huber law inmates, according to Capt. Schoenfeld. On "busy" days there are 80 or more individuals held in cramped quarters. Many of those being held haven't been convicted of anything but are merely awaiting trial. Juveniles are housed at the jail since Kenosha County presently has no maximum security facilities for delinquent juveniles. Because Wisconsin state law requires that juveniles be kept separate from adults, occasionally entire cell blocks of adults must be cleared out to house the juveniles (adding to the already overcrowded conditions). Extreme overcrowding could lead to security problems for the inmates as well as the staff members. The Arthur Young Association outlined the inadequacies of the present facility in their final report to the Jail Committee in December 1974. Included in the report were the following: 1) Existing cells do not meet Wisconsin State Standards relative to size (length and width). 2) The existing Huber dorm has one shower, two lavatories and two toilets. If State standards were applied relative to the shower, six inmates could be housed; relative to the lavatories and toilets, twelve could be accommodated. In 1973 a daily average Huber population of 28 inmates were housed in the one dormitory. 3) A wash-laundry sink is located in each 6-cell block for use by the inmates. Prisoners are not issued washable standard jail clothing and the tub-laundry is inappropriate in terms of today's fabrics. 4) The existing kitchen area is not conducive to efficient food preparation, with food handling, cooking, and tray filling operatives too close together. 35) Food is prepared by matrons with no prior institutional cooking experience or training and is "informally prepared." No standards on nutritional content, portion control or food cost accounting presently exist. 6) There are no central dining areas. Food trays are passed to the prisoners through slots from the guard corridor. 7) There are no medical facilities in the jail; nor is a medical examination given at any time during incarceration unless specifically requested by an inmate. 8) There is a total lack of space for visiting purposes. The two parties must shout at each other through a solid steel door. 9) There is a total lack of s pace for recreation purposes, inside or butside. 10) There is a total lack of s pace for use in providing educational, counseling or vocational programs. There is a total lack of rehabilitative or counseling services. In addition, the study pointed out the inadequacies of the Sheriff's administrative area. They found that almost all administrative office space is extremely crowded with a minimum of privacy for each employee. The "management area" of the administrative portion is essentially inaccessible to the public. The public counter area itself has minimal waiting space with no chairs or benches (two benches are present in the main public hallway). The study reported that such problems contribute to personnel inefficiency, low employee morale, poor public relations, and generally ineffective departmental operation. Capt. Schoenfeld reiterated the problems faced by the existing facility, saying that the overcrowding creates inefficiency within the department, contributes to low morale and creates poor living conditions for the inmates, which leaves them dissatisfied and builds up tension and animosity. District Attorney Bruce Schroeder called the present jail facility "a hole." He said that it has no rehabilitative capacities; all it does is keep people locked up behind bars. Schroeder feels that the present jail's major shortcoming is in the area of juveniles, saying that there is no worse place to keep a juvenile being detained. Schroeder said that judges occasionally will be hesitant to place offenders in jail because of the poor conditions. There are cases, he feels, where persons should be jailed for punishment because of the danger of their crime (reckless use of w eapons, drunk driving, etc.) but the judges hesitate to send them to jail-especially if they are otherwise respectable citizens. The Arthur Young Study also investigated the possibility of ho using the Sheriff and Police Departments together and consolidating some of the Law Enforcement Support functions. The study pointed out that this plan would not result in great cost savings but would result in increased cooperation, efficiency and service between the two agencies as well as within the community. The two agencies would remain separate but would combine such functions as communications, records, criminalistics and photo development, training-assembly, library, polygraph room, property storage, firing range-armory, locker rooms, physical fitness, press room, conference rooms and public fingerprinting. The plan would require less space than if the agencies resided in two separate facilities. Fewer people would be required in some functions and, most importantly, the study felt higher levels of internal and public service could be realized. Supervisor Capriotti said the Jail Study Committee would look into the possibility of a combined facility but emphasized that the two agencies would retain their separate identities.

Gary Huck, juror, commented that he thought there were too many Survey THE PARKSIDE RANGER Wednesday, April 23, 1975 7 continued from page 1 will affect air and water quality and the local economy and obviously will affect the region's power availability. The results of the survey show, at least among members of the Parkside community, that decisions are based upon instinct or personal feelings, rather than knowledge. Similar results have been found in other parts of the state. The knowledge portion of the questioneer used by the environmental communications class consisted of 15 questions, some taken or modified from the University of Wisconsin survey, others were composed by the class. The survey also showed that most of those surveyed received most of their information about nuclear energy from schools (23 percent), while 19 percent learned from newspapers and the same amount from personal reading. Eighteen percent used a variety of sources other than those listed in the questioneer. Another 16 percent relied on teleivision and six percent got their information from radio. The most-missed question asked what was the current method of storing high-level radioactive wastes. Eleven percent answered correctly, that the wastes are stored in boiling form as a liquid in metal containers. Over 80,000,000 gallons of highlevel radioactive wastes are stored as a liquid in about 20 concrete encased, steel tanks buried at Atomic Energy Commission AEC) sites in Washington, South Carolina, Idaho and New York. The tanks are expected to last, at most, 20 years before requiring replacement. Since radioactive fission products are stored in strong nitric acid solutions, tanks tend to leak. At Ha nford, Washington, 15 of Jassifiedthe 15.1 tanks developed leaks mm 7 i(£ of 20 years and 200,000 of 74 million gallons seeped into the ground. The AEC (now the Nuclear Kegulatory Commission (NRC)) feels that tank storage is no onger a viable approach to radioactive waste disposal. The new plant is to convert liquid wastes into solids and store them above ground concrete structures. Even this is a temporary measure , since the deadly wastes must be isolated for thousands of years. The AEC has studied the Possibility of using salt mines as a permanent repository for solidified wastes. But oil and water well holes were found in the area and the possibility of water leaking into the mines became a real problem. The Club and the State of Kansas attempted to block the plan. The AEC announced in May, 1972, the temporary abandonment of the plan. Another frequently missed question was "to date, there has been no leakage of radioactive materials in the transport from fuel enrichment centers to nuclear power plants." Thirteen percent had the correct response-that no leaks have been discovered. There have been accidents involving trucks carrying fuel to nuclear plants but there has never been any release of radioactive material as a result. There has been release of radioactive material in transit, but most of the cases involved, sources other than radioactive fuel such as medical or industrial isotopes.

The major concern over transportation of radioactive materials involves the large increase in such shipments as the nuclear industry grows. Although shipments of pure fuel are much less radioactive than shipments of used fuel, there is some concern over the theft or hijacking of this fresh fuel for the construction of nuclear bombs, particularly if plutonium is used as a reactor fuel. The shipment of high level liquid wastes from nuclear plants to reprocessing plants poses the greatest problem. The possibility of a major accident or release of radioactive wastes will increase with the number of shipments. And the number of casks of spent fuel shipped annually is expected to rise from 30 in 1970 to 9,500 in the year 2000. About a third of those questioned knew that uranium tailings containing large quantities of radium or other radioactive materials have been piled near uranium mills where they are exposed to erosion by wind and rain. Uranium waste has been left in the area of mines or uranium ore mills in Colorado, Utah, New Mexico, Arizona and other western states. Over 5,000 ac res serve as a permanent storage place for the tailings and 12,000 acres from temporary storage sites for tailings from uranium mines. A study of one such site in Utah showed higher levels of background radioactivity than natural in areas downwind from the sites. Ground water samples in the area also showed higher radioactivity levels than normal. About 75 percent were right when they said thermal pollution may reduce the recreational value of water by heating it and increasing the growth of algae and at the same time recuce the waste assimilation capacity of the receiving body of water. Student debts (CPS)-A move to roadblock the growing number of recent graduates who have claimed bankruptcy on student loan debts is underway in Congress. Declaring bankruptcy-where financial liabilities exceed assets-is a small but growing part of the national student loan default picture, according to student loan specialists. Some of t hese specialists claim increasing use of bankruptcy procedures could eventually destroy the student loan programs. ."While it is true that, so far, only a small proportion of student loan defaults are attributable to bankruptcy procedures," warned United Student Aid Fund President Charles Meares, "this proportion is growing rapidly as more and more student loan borrowers become aware of the availability of the bankruptcy route." Meares, along with representatives from five national higher education groups, have supported a proposal before a Senate subcommittee to suspend for five years bankruptcy privileges for student loans. A bill permanently amending the Bankruptcy Act to provide for this change has already been introduced in the House. "Practically any student just emerging from college with a burden of student loan debts can demonstrate that his or her liabilities exceed his or her assets," said Meares. Meares argued that "a proper distinction ought to be made between student loans and other kinds of l oans" because student loans carry especially low interest rates, the lender is a non-profit institution, arid the money is loaned without collateral in the belief that the student will have high earnings in the future.

Baseball season at UW-P UW-Parkside's baseball team will try again to open its season, this time against the UWMadison junior varsity in a Saturday doubleheader at Horlick Field in Racine. Starting time is 12 noon. Coach Ken (Red) Oberbruner's Rangers haven't even been able to get outdoors yet because of t he weather and their first five twin bills have been cancelled. The veteran coach, however, thinks his club will rebound from last year's 6-16 record in Parkside's first year of varsity baseball. "Good pitching and sound defense will be the cornerstone of our team," Oberbruner said. "I've got only four pitchers but they should win their share of games and our strongest point is our infield. "We're anxious to get out and play," he added. "One-third of our season is over and we haven't played a game. An athlete can only perform on the field and ours are ready to go." Oberbruner lists his infield starters and back-up men as the team's strong suit, along with an experienced pitching staff that includes three letterwinners. The Rangers will also attempt to play at Waukesha Tech on Monday and at Carroll the following Friday (April 18) before returning home to meet St. Norbert at noon Saturday, April 19.
