If you were eligible for the Pell Grant Semester I, 1982 -83, your grant may qualify for a small increase. The Financial Aid Office will process these affected changes Semester II of the 1982 -83 academic year and they will be reflected in your Semester II checks available at final registration in January, 1983. Also, due to the recently signed Student Financial Assistance Technical Amendments Act of 1982, the treatment of Veteran's educational benefits will be af­fected. Under this law only one -third of these benefits will be considered in determining the Pell Grant award. Previously, 100% of Veteran's benefits were con­sidered. Thus, most veterans enrolled Semester I, 1982-83, will now be eligible for Pell awards. Veterans who do not plan to attend second semester, 1982 - 83, should inform our office in writing. Committee formed to help by Bob Kiesling News Editor A tuition increase of about $50 was recommended by the UW System Board of Regents in their 1983-85 biennial budget recom­mendation. Board of Regents President Robert O'Neal said this would hold students' contributions to about 27 percent of their educational costs. O'Neal said that the current condition of the State's General Fund, and the quality of the University's programs, were "too precarious" to set a definite target for academic fee levels in the next two years. Right now most resident UW students are contributing about 27 percent of the cost of their education in academic fees. The Board of Regents is using the current figure as a guide for future policy decisions. This increase amounts to a 4.4 percent in tuition costs, a figure that roughly corresponds to the Regent's overall request for a 4.8 percent increase in System fun­ding. Noting that other Big Ten in­stitutions have not suffered in academic funding when their states reduced their contributions to the school's budgets were cut, O'Neal said that this academic levels at other universities were maintained only with substantial increases in tuition costs. Currently, the UW System has the second lowest tuition costs of any Big Ten university. Only the University of Illinois charges less for undergraduate resident tuition. The Regents estimated that the UW System would require at least $61.9 million in additional funding to restore funds to a 1973-74 level, the last year the board of R egents considered UW funding adequate. O'Neal called such a request desirable, but "neither reasonable nor realistic." Instead, the Board of Regents, in preparing their budget request, chose to set several priorities as a first step in restoring System funding to the 1973-74 l evel. The Regent's first priority was that of determining how the University could best aid the state's economic recovery. Steps to be taken, the Regents said, include: Restoring adequate funding levels for the upgrading of out­dated or worn laboratory equipment. Without this step, the university is facing a possibility of falling behind private industry in several highly technological areas. O'Neal said that replacement costs for equipment run into "the tens of millions of dollars." Also complicating the shortage of adequate lab equipment is the fact that student demand for degrees in science, engineering, and business has increased greatly. O'Neal also listed better compensation to retain a high quality faculty in those areas most in demand. Access to the UW System's library system has suffered greatly in budget areas since 1974. At this time, new acquisitions are at a level of between 1 and 2 per student per year. This is about one third of what the Regents consider an acceptable level. by Pat Hensiak Editor The Alcohol and Drug Awareness Committee has recently been developed on this campus. The purpose of the committee is to study campus needs related to the use, abuse, and regulation of alcohol and drugs at UW-Parkside, make recommendations for campus policies and procedures, and make information available on a campus wide basis. According to Dave Pedersen, Dean of S tudent Life at Parkside, the committee began from an outgrowth of interest within a lot of people. Pedersen also pointed out that this committee was not set up to tell people whether they can drink or not, but to make sure that this campus runs in com­pliance with the laws. "Everyone has the right to free choice within the law. Everytrne has the right to make an intelligent decision, and our campus needed to create some program relating to sensible use or abuse. People need to have a place on this campus where they can get the information and help if they so choose. It's important that if h elp is needed, it is here, on this campus." Pedersen also pointed out that Second City scheduled to perform here Chicago's perennially popular Second City comedy troupe will appear at the Comm Arts Theater on Tuesday, Nov. 16 at 8 p.m. under sponsorship of the Parkside Activities Board. Reserved seat tickets are available at the Parkside Union Information Center (Phone 553-2345) and are $3 for UW-P students; $5 for general public. The special brand of satiric approach that characterizes The Second City is translated by six or seven actors who enliven an empty stage with topical — sometimes irreverent — comedy sketches. Using few props and costumes, punctuating scenes with original music, the ensemble creates slice - of - life environments, developing all of its material in the per­formance situation, improvising on ideas suggested by the audience and their fellow cast members. Since its beginnings in 1951, The Second City has spawned such major talents as Mike Nichols, Elaine May, Ed Asner, Shelly Berman, Jerry Stiller, Anne Meara and Alan Arkin. In addition The Second City has groomed Dan Aykroyd, John Belushi, Brian Doyle - Murray, Bill Murray, Gilda Radner, Tim Kazurinsky, Mary Gross, Robin Duke and Tony Rosato, all of "Saturday Night Live" fame. In 1961, Second City ventured out of the Heartland to make its Broadway debut in the Big Apple, followed by several off - Broad­way stints. In 1965, a 10 - week Theater Guild tour exposed much of th e rest of the country to Second City zaniness and, since 1967, the troupe has maintained touring companies to cope with demand for its appearances. The next logical steps were into television and film. TV projects have included "SCTV," a satirical look at a day in the life of a "typical" television station, originally syndicated to 55 cities and later picked up by NBC. A new TV show, "The Yesterday Show," a Second City look at news of th e past, now is in development. In 1980, The Second City moved into film development and its screen adaptation of David Mamet's "Sexual Perversity in Chicago" was scheduled for production by Paramount Pic­tures. Other film projects include "The Pinkerton Lady" and "Weekend Warriors," both for Paramount, and "The Intimate Sex Lives of Famous People" for 20th Century - Fox. After more than 20 years, in­cluding several previous ap­pearances at Parkside, The Second City continues its brash, youthful approach to life's ad­versity and maintains its tradition as a breeding ground for new Smokeout here again when the committee checks into being in compliance with the law, they check into the training programs here on campus for the people who dispense alcohol down in the Union. If someone has had too much to drink, according to the law, they must be cut off from drinking any more. Bartenders will go through programs making them aware of their respon­sibility. The philosophy behind the committee is not to tell people what is and is not appropriate behavior. They have to make those choices on their own. The committee's philosophy is to make clear that this University is an educational institution. Procedure and policies related to drugs and alcohol should reflect an educational approach to the concept of freedom of choice, within a framework consistant with state and local regulations. The establishment of information and referral systems will be tailored to the needs of this campus community. "It really isn't a matter of telling anything.

It launches its "graduates" into the world with a traditional rite of passage: a farewell party with three kinds of pizza and cham­pagne at the bar of the troupe's home base at 1616 North Wells St. in Chicago. November 18,1982 is the date for the 6th Great American Smokeout. This annual ob­servance focuses public attention on cigarette smokers from coast to coast. The smokeout is an up -beat, good natured effort to en­courage smokers to give up cigaretttes for 24 h ours if only to prove to themselves that they can. Everyone enjoys watching and rooting while they try. It's their day! According to a survey conducted by the Gallup organization, in 1981, just over 16 million American smokers at­tempted to give up cigarettes on smokeout day. There will be two tables set up on smokeout day with pledge cards, information, and some surprises. One table will be in the Union Concourse, and one in Main Place. The Pre - Med Club and Student Nurses Organization will be there to get you off to a good start. Parkside smokeout activities are sponsored by the Student Health Center, Pre - Med Club, and the Student Nurses Organization. THE NATIONAL TOURING COMPANY; Second City. BRI fellowships by Bob Kiesling News Editor Parkside's Biomedical Research Institute believes it has come up with a way to help un­dergraduate science students get needed experience in actual laboratory experience, before they get out into the world of medical and graduate schools, or with research in private industry. The Summer Research Fellowship Program, begun only last summer, is designed to provide superior science un­dergraduates with experience in the area of independent research. The program consists of a one credit independent study, in the spring, to acquaint the student -researchers with research methods; the project, which is conducted over the summer, and a report of the student's findings, including a seminar, submitted during the fall. Program Director Eugene Goodman said science students for any science discipline may apply for a fellowship, which includes a $1500 stipend. "It's really open to just about any science student," he said. Goodman said that the program aids students most strongly in the area of handling an independent project.

Inside • • • * Award winning catalog cover * Creative story New Music Thursday, November 11,1982 Editorial Fooled Again Once again the voters have made fools of the experts. Those experts, who said the 1980 p residential election was "too close to call" have failed in their efforts to tell the American public how they are going to vote. These uncooperative voters have kicked up a cloud of electoral dust so dense it could be months before the experts get themselves pointing the right way again. The most obvious example is the fact that anybody who knew anything just knew that Big Jim Thompson was going to kick Adlai Stevenson all over the State of Illinois. What actually happened was that Stevenson came out early with a strong lead in the Chicago precincts, and that lead carried him as returns came in from the increasingly Republican suburbs and downstate areas. Amid charges ot ballot stuffing and explanations of why computer ballot counting takes longer than hand ballot counting, in the end — so far — Thompson has the lead by about 9,000 votes out of the 3-1/2 million cast. Stevenson refuses to concede defeat, and he could tie up the election in the courts for as long as six months, in a long and costly legal battle. But the big issue of the campaign was: Was this year's election results of a mandate for, against, or indifferent to, Reaganomics? While the White House achieved a major objective in retaining a Senate majority, the Democrats narrowed the lead, and many Republicans who did win did so only by a narrow margin. The Democrats also widened their lead in the House. For many Republican candidates, the onus of Reaganomics was too great to overcome. Reagan has, however, lost his mandate with the right - wing establish­ment. Most conservatives feel that "stay the course" was fine as a defensive move, but what course? A 1983 bu dget deficit in excess of $100 billion? Record unemployment? Leaders of the National Con­servative Political Action Committee (NCPAC) spent nearly $4 million to support key Republican candidates. NCPAC lost nearly all these races, and they are laying the blame squarely on Reagan's doorstep. Still and all, voter turnout in an off - year election was surprisingly high. The electorate seems to be saying: "We realize that this mess is going to take a while to get cleared up, but let's get started, please." And finally, Reagan, with impeccable post - election timing, named a close political associate, Paul Laxalt, to the chairmanship of the Republican National Committee. It is clear now that Reagan is planning on making a bid for re - election. No matter what the experts may conclude from the 1982 ele ctions, in 1984 th e voters mandate will be either for, against, or indifferent to Reagan himself. «cocc© sococosooecoooosoooococcosooooooooco&a Ranger editorials reflect the opinion of the majority of the editorial staff.

Editor's notes Reactions to Snow by Pat Hensiak Editor Did you see it snowing last week?? I think almost everyone did. Have you ever thought about all of the uses for snow?? Snow; that amazing solid precipitation that falls in the form of a white or translucent ice crystal of various possible size and shape, originating somewhere in the upper atmosphere as frozen particles of water vapor, that fall down to earth in a great abun­dance in Wisconsin, especially in the winter of the year. The uses for snow are incredible. Snowballs, for throwing; snowstorms, for getting caught in; snow suits, for keeping warm; snowdrifts, for jumping into; snowmobiles for driving over the snow; snow shovels for digging through the snow; and snowjobs, the efforts made to overwhelm someone with snowy - type in­formation. One of the most interesting things that happens because of snow, are people's reactions. To snow, no two people react the same. There are those who absolutely nuts, those who D„ absolutely crazy, and those who go go go screaming into the night at the thought of snow. Those who go nuts are always the ones who say, "WOW." Nothing else, they just walk around all day going "WOW." They actually are quite excited. The thing is, they tend to become somewhat child like, and their vocabulary depletes to that one word. A truly incredible thing to witness. There are those who go crazy, the ones who hate snow. The first thing they hated in their life was snow. They still hate it. They look out the window and mutter some dirty word as they walk away. They are usually the people who begin talking about California if even one flake (of snow) is mentioned. They would move to Florida if they felt at all calm about leaving the comfort of their present life to go into the real wilderness of their discontent. Not many are calm. The one's who go screaming into the night are the ones to worry about. I'm sure you've seen these people. Most of them don't eat sugar, or salt, or go outside if there is a cloud a few hundred miles away. They're the ones your mother warned you against.

I don't know how many people you would get to admit to this screaming into the night business. I'm not sure I would, if I were one to scream into the night for any reason. People's reactions are funny. I have never seen a person react calmly to snow. They are either one extreme or the other. Maybe it just brings out a bit of the child in all of us. The people who have to watch out are runners. Yes, believe it or not, some people are crazy enough to run in the winter. Some are crazy and nuts, and they run in the winter, and in the snow too. As if running every day wasn't crazy enough. As they run through this white fluffy stuff, their feet are bound to get all wet. They could die of pneumonia, or other related diseases. Something I've really been wondering about lately, is what do all of these runners do, once thay have their new hot pink Nikes, and they wear them in the snow, and they get all wet, and the colors begin to run??? Do they just leave colored tracks in the snow? Perhaps they just run south for the winter. Thank You! Thank you to all who par­ticipated in the Fall, 1982 Blood Drive.

Nancy Myers, of Business Executives Move (BEM), a Chicago group concerned about the cost of the arms race to the economy, will speak on "The Economic Impact of the Arms Race." BEM's position is that building a strong economic base is more important to national security than building armaments and that the Midwest is especially hard hit by military spending programs, which go primarily Sunbelt contractors. Daniel Maguire, professor ethics at Marquette University and the author of several books, will speak on "The Moral and Psychological Implications of Preparing for a Nuclear War." The program is free and open to the public, but reservations are requested to insure adequate seating. Reservations can be made by calling 553-2345, toll free from Racine and Kenosha. In conjunction with the evening program, the film "The Last Epidemic" will be shown four times on campus on Wednesday, Nov. 17, at 9 a.m. and 3:30 p.m. in Greenquist Hall Room 103 a nd at 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. in Union Room 207. Those screenings are also free and open to the public. of "The Last Epidemic" is a film to on the medical consequences of nuclear weapons and nuclear war and was inspired by a symposium held by Physicians for Social Responsibility, an international group of physicians, dentists, medical students and other dedicated to professional and public education on medical hazards of nuclear weapons. Kenosha / Racine groups cooperating in presenting the program include Citizens for the Environment, Citizens for a Nuclear Freeze, Hoy Nature Club, Sierra Club and World Federalists.

What actually happened was that Steveru;on came out early with a strong lead m the Chicago precincts, and that lead carried him as returru; came m from the increasingly Republican suburbs and downstate areas. · Amid charges of ballot stuffing and explanallons of why computer ballot l'OUnting talccs longer than hand ballot counting, in the end -so far-Thompson has the lead by about 9,000 votes out of the 3·1/2 million cast, Stevenson refuses to concede defeat, and he could tie up the ell'Cllon in the courts for as long as six months, in a long and costly legal battle. But the big issue of the campaign was: Was this year's election results of a mandate for, against, or indifferent to, Reaganomics? While the White Hou e achieved a major objective in retaining a Senate majority, t~e Democrats narrowed the lead, and many Republicans who did win did so only by a narrow margin. The Democrats aL,;o widened their lead m the House fo'or many Republican candidates, the onus of He.1ganom1cs was too great to overcome. Reagan has, however, lost his mandate with the right -wing establish-ment. Most con ervattves feel that "stay the course" was fine as a defensive move, but what course? A 1983 budget deficit in excess of $100 billion? Record unemployment? Leaders of the National Con-servative Political Action Committee <~CPAC> spent nearly $4 million to support kev Republican candidates. NCPAC lost nearly all these ra~. and they are laying the blame squarely on Reagan's doorstep. Still and all, voter turnout in an off -year election was surprisingly high. The electorate seems to be saying: "We realize that this mess is going to talce a while to get cleared up, but let's get started, please." And finally, Reagan, with impeccable post• election timing, named a close political associate, Paul Laxalt, to the chairmanship of the Republican National Committee. It is clear now that Reagan is planning on making a bid for re • election. No matter what the experts may conclude from the 1982 elections, in 1984 the voters mandate will be either for, against, or indifferenl to Reagan himself. ~0000 00000~~..;::i-.:r..,.-.✓-,, Ranier editorial• reflect the opinion of tit. majority of the edltorfal •ta.ff.

I trunk ahnost everyone did. Have you ever thought about all ol the uses for snow?? Snow; that amazing solid precipitation that falls in the form d. a white or translucent ice crystal of various possible size and shape, originating somewhere in the upper atmosphere as frozen particles d. water vapor, that fall down to earth in a great abun-dance in Wiscoosin, especially in the winter or the year. The uses for snow are incredible. Snowballs, for throwing; snowstorms, for getting caught in; snow suits, for keeping warm; snowdrifts, for jumping into; snowmobiles for driving aver the snow; snow shovels for digging through the snow; and snowjobs, the efforts made to overwhelm someone with snowy -type in-formation. One of the most interesting things that happens because of snow, are people's reactions. To snow, no two people react the same. There are those who go absolutely nuts, those who go absolutely crazy, and those who go screaming into the night at the thought of snow. Those who go nuts are always the ones who say, "WOW." Nothing else, they just walk around all day going "WOW." They actually are quite excited. The thing is, they tend to become somewhat child like, and their vocabulary depletes to that ooe word. A truJy incredible thing to witness. There are tlt06e who go crazy, the ones who hate snow. The first thing they hated in their life was snow. They still hate it. They look out the window and mutter some dirty word as lhey walk away. They are usually the people who begin talking about California if even one flake Col snow) is mentioned. They would move to Florida if they felt at all calm about leaving the c«mfort of their present life to go into the real wilderness of their discontent. Not many are calm. The one's who go screaming into the night are the ones to worry about. I'm sure you've seen tltese people. Most or them don't eat sugar, or salt, Ol' go outside if there is a cloud a few hundred miles away. They're the ones your mother warned you against. They doo't wear underwear, because ******************** Ranger salutes Veterans! Thursday, November II they think they're allergic to elastic. There's at least one in every crowd. I don't know how many pe<iple you would get to admit to this screaming into the night business. I'm not sure I would, if I were one to scream into the night for any reason. People's reactions are funny. I have never seen a person react calmly to snow. They are either ooe extreme or the other. Maybe it just brings out a bit of the child In all of us. The people who have to watch out are runners. Yes, believe it or not, some pe<iple are crazy enough to run in the winter. Some are crazy and nuts, and they run in the winter, and in the snow too. As if running every day wasn't crazy enough. As they run through this white fluffy stuff, their feet are bound to get all wet. They could die ci pneumonia, or other related diseases. Something I've really been wondering about lately, is what do all of these runners do. once thay have their new hot pink Nikes, and they wear them in the snow, and they get all wet, and the colors begin to run??? Do they just leave colored tracks in the snow? Perhaps they just run south for the winter. :•:•:•:•:•:•:•;~:•:~:-:-:-:•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•:•:-:~:;:;:::,:::::::::::::.~::;:::::::::::::,: Thank You!
