Academic policy changes come under fire from student groups Series Number The series number of the original collection. UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document HP University of Wisconsin - Parkside Academic policy changes come under fire from student groups by Bob Kiesling News Editor Two changes in Parkside's academic policies, the addition of a "W" designation on transcripts and a change in the drop deadline, are to come before the Faculty Senate for a vote this week. Student groups and some administrators are protesting the changes because of the possible adverse effect on Parkside's quality of education, saying it discourages students from taking classes they are not sure of passing. The changes will move the drop deadline from the twelfth week to the eighth week of the semester, and a "W", showing that the student dropped the class, will be entered on a student's transcript if the class is dropped after a two week "grace period." "Everybody in the UW System seems to have a policy but us," said Donald Kummings, head of the Faculty Senate's Academic Policies Committee, speaking of the addition of the "W" designation. He said the change was designed to discourage students from "shopping around" for classes, and taking seats away from students who need the class for a major requirement. Kummings had favored a four week grace period, similar to Madisons, but said the two week deadline "found no opposition from the committee." He said the change would "identify and discourage" the students who took extra classes regularly. Stuart Rubner, Director of Community Student Services, disagreed, saying, "It's going to stop people from trying." Community Student Services is responsible for counseling non - traditional students who plan to attend Parkside. Rubner said that the change would discourage students from taking a class if there was a possibility of a change in outside factors, such as home or work. Many students get a transcript full of " W's," without taking into account the factors that caused the drop. "I think in a sense you penalize people who want to take an extra class or two," he added. "The change is supposed to force people to think about what they're taking." But, Rubner said, it is sometimes difficult to determine beforehand whether a class fulfills a specific need. "You try to make an intelligent guess of what a class is about by looking at a three or four line description," he said. Rubner did agree with the eight week drop deadline, saying, "You should know whether you're going to make it in a class after eight weeks." David Schroeder, PSGA's representative on the Academic Policies Committee, said that PSGA "is totally against both propositions." Schroeder was the only member of the Committee who voted against an eight week drop deadline because in many classes, a student doesn't know Progreba - Scoon win PSGA elections by Bob Kiesling News Editor Phil Pogreba, after a recount call by second place candidate John Monks, was elected president of Parkside Student Government Association. Pogreba got 171 votes in the election, held on Mar. 10 and 11, over 100 votes less than he got last Pogreba said that he and Scoon won because they had more combined experience in student government than any of the other candidates. "Both Mike and I out - experienced the other opponents," he said. He added that Monks had worked hard during the campaign, and that it had been reflected in the vote totals. Pogreba said that he didn't put as much effort into the campaign this year, compared to last year's election, when he got 295 votes in his campaign for president, but still lost to President Jim Kreuser. Total voting in the PSGA elections was 705, or about 12 percent of t he student population. Last year's total voting was slightly higher, with 830 ballots cast. PHIL POGREBA year, but still enough to beat Monks by a margin of 17 v otes. Pogreba's running mate, Mike Scoon, defeated his closest challenger, Marty Rheaume, 257 to 221, to become Vice President of PSGA. Pogreba and Scoon will assume office at tomorrow's PSGA Senate meeting. how they're doing until after the midterm, and by then the class cannot be dropped. 'Two weeks is not enough to decide whether you want to drop a class," he said, speaking of the grace period. Many classes meet only once a week and a student could not judge in that time whether the class was worth taking. Schroeder said that the lack of penalty for dropping a class encouraged students to take courses that might not otherwise be interested in, and that such classes could ultimately be beneficial for the student. "You're penalizing students for something that's not necessarily bad," he said.

The computer graphics system, called the PS 300, is being introduced by Evans & Sutherland, a Utah - based computer firm that selected UW-Parkside on the basis of the school's strong biomedical research and applied computer science programs. "The PS 300 system allows scientists, product developers, virtually anyone with a problem - solving task to make color line - drawings of objects that can be instantly manipulated, rotated, modified and explored in intimate detail," said Associate Professor of Chemistry Keith Ward. Ward, along with Associate Professor of Applied Computer Science Timothy Fossum, applied for the graphics system through the firm's university grant program. Ward, whose research into the structure and function of protein molecules has inspired grants from national science organizations, said the PS 300 system uses optical illusions to achieve a three - dimensional effect. "Portions of the object closer to the viewer are more brightly displayed, while portions farther away are progressively dimmer, and this creates an illusion that the object on the screen really is three - dimensional," Ward said. He said the computer graphics system consists of tw o large video display terminals (one color and one black and white), a control panel used to manipulate objects on the screen and a graphics interpreter, which is a highly specialized computer that provides the brains and power for the manipulative function. Ward said the Evans & Sutherland grant also includes a device that allows the graphics system to be hooked up with the university's central IBM computer, which will provide even more power and versatility. He said the PS 300 system is unique to institutions and industries in Wisconsin and the greater Chicago area. "We've got researchers in education, government and industrial laboratories all over this area very excited about coming in and trying the system out for themselves," Ward said. Ward said Dr. T.J. O'Donnell, a chemist in computer systems development at Abbott Laboratories in North Chicago, 111., plans to tailor his original computer graphics program to the PS 300 system. The program, called GRAMPS, is used by research scientists around the nation and permits them to "converse with computers more easily," Ward said. "It almost allows for a conversation between the human operator and the computer." Ward said that, besides being used by students and researchers, local industries will be invited to get hands - on experience with the computer graphics system and use it as a tool to determine its potential usefulness to their operations. He said the PS 300 system at UW-Parkside could be used as a resource for industry to make decisions about purchases of similar equipment. Ward said he and his UWParkside colleagues plan an "open house" to introduce the computer graphics system to people in industry, research and education as soon as the system is fully installed. "For my own purposes," said Ward, "my students and I plan to use the system to examine the structure of sickle cell hemoglobin, bioluminescent proteins, and the toxic proteins in snake venom, three areas of basic research in which I'm involved. "The advantages afforded many research areas by an advanced computer graphics system like this are almost unbelievable. Whereas it once took us days to prepare new views of our molecular models, now we can do this with just the twist of a knob. The system allows us immediately to see and understand how various structural changes might affect the function of molecules, or for that matter, depending on what your research involves, the function of automobile bodies, computer circuits, or just about anything under the sun." Measles alert ! ! ! There have been large - scale outbreaks of measles on a number of Midwestern campuses. This is a cause of particular concern to public health officials right now because so many universities have just completed spring break and students from campuses which have been measles - free may have come in contact with students from campuses where a number of students are infected. This applies not only to students who traveled to Florida or other locations during break, but also those who remained in the area and may have come in contact with students from other campuses home for the holidays. As a precautionary measure to prevent spread of m easles on this campus, the Student Health Center is asking students who have either of two sets of symptoms to call the Health Center at 553-2366. Symptom set one: Students who have a rash in conjunction with a fever of 101 degrees or higher. Symptom set two: Students with a combination of fever, head cold, and either a dry, hacking cough or eye inflammation. If you have these symptoms, please call the Student Health Center. Your cooperation can prevent the spread of m easles on this campus and in the community as well as protect your own health. Inside ... * Guest editorial * Visiting scholar * Review: Frances Thursday, March 24, 1983 Guest Editorial Responses to letters on movie AS YOU KNOW, WE NEED SOMEONE TO REPLACE ANNE BURFORD AT E.R A. XOULD YOU SPELL "MANAGE" FOR US, PLEASE? G. Helgeson Oyer the course of the past few weeks, the planned showing of the PAB sponsored film "Emmanuelle" has created a near controversy on this campus. To find out what people think about the showing of pornographic movies on campus during time that classes are scheduled, I've talked informally with students and faculty and formally with administrative people. Yes, I have a bias — I don't think showing a film of this nature 1S a good idea. I agree wholeheartedly with the views of both Donna Sahakian and Carol Frank as reflected in their letters to the Ranger. I disagree with the opinions expressed by Michael Schwartz in his letter. I also disagree with PAB, and because PAB is an arm of Student Life here at Parkside, I disagree with Student Life and finally (dare I say it?) with UW - Parkside. A few years ago, I saw a couple of X through triple X rated movies. I did not feel comfortable with the way in which the films portrayed women and men. The people in these movies did not seem real in the sense that they did not seem to see one another as human. Which brings me to my first point of disagreement: many people I h£ve talked with about the film say that pornography harms no one because it is a matter of individual choice of entertainment. It is as if these people believe that entertainment is personal and therefore affects no one else. What they ignore is the simple fact that all of our choices affect others. If we choose to attend a certain school, to vote for a certain candidate, to work at a certain job, or to buy certain products, we are making choices that affect not only our own well - being but that of others. Because we choose to be a part of the UW - Parkside community in some way, we have chosen to support this university, for example, and in a very concrete way we all ensure the continued existence of UW - Parkside and other universities similar in nature. This sense of personal responsibility is hard to stomach for some people. It involves the realization that personal liberty does not mean license to do as you will. The bottom line in this case is that by choosing to spend money and by appearing at a campus showing of "Emmanuelle" we are choosing to support not only the PAB showing of the movie on this campus, but the creation of pornography and the way pornography portrays people, mainly women, as less than fully human. Another recurring point brought up by those I talked with links this "soft porn" film with portrayals of women and men in various other media, notably television. "So what?" I've heard. "TV is just as bad." While I am glad that people can see the connection between pornography and much of television's presentation of people as sexual objects without hearts and minds, I fail to see the prevalence of our society's callousness as a reason to accept Finally, to reply to Schwartz' assertion that "to decide what is best for the majority without input from the majority is censorship," I assert in return that the number of minority interests that have been or are today disregarded as trivial or not in the interest of the majority create a majority. For example, there are many in our society who do not have access to the "good life" a few people enjoy. Yet it is the few who decide for the many. Similarly, a few people on this campus decided to show this film without consulting the larger body of students. "Censorship" is just plain misused in this context. Asserting that those who have no power are practicing censorship is ludicrous. Censorship is possible only when those in power, here some person within the Parkside administration, refuses to allow access beca use it is not in their interest to do so. A grass - roots level protest is not censorship. It is an appeal to individual conscience ; it is a demand for collective action in the true best interest of all. NO, NO, NO. "MANAGE " AS IN "PROPERLY MWAGF THE ENVIRONMENT." Think Piece Dirty Laundry by Bruce R. Preston When I left high school I left a lot of things behind me. I can even remember the day I packed my yearbooks and memorabilia into a large cardboard box and put it above the rafters in our garage (symbolic I suppose). Much to my dismay one of the things I thought I had left has come back (in full force) to destroy and disrupt. I guess it s something you never escape. What I'm referring to is dirty laundry, juicy's, hot gossip, rumors. Let me state right here and now (before I get any more accusatory letters from the east coast) that it has never been my purpose with this column to place myself above the topic under examination. One thing I hope I never stop being is human. Yet, by being human we all face certain consequences, th e ultimate being that no one is perfect; we all make mistakes. We all gossip (some more than others) and we all at one time or another fall prey to rumors (either the creation or manifestation thereof). I'm not trying to change the course of human existence with this column, I just want to share a few main points that many of us overlook when participating in gossip. We can never share the "raw" experience with someone else but we can talk (or recreate) with them about it. This is important to remember because whenever yoi talk about something you are noi merely presenting that thing tc another person you are recreating it for them. Therefore, when yoi gossip you are not talking aboul the person in question, but rather creating the person. Example time! If I tell a frienc that a girl we know spent the nighl at a guy's house and we use the words cheap or tramp to describe her, then we have created a person and a situation. Regardless of what may have happened Continued On Page Four Letter to the Fditnr Rebuttal to Schwartz Editor's Notes Activities of the busy break II/kn«inl« > 1 - by Pat Hensiak Editor The vacation was nice, but it did seem to be a bit of a bust for several people. I almost feel guilty for all of the poor students who saved for weeks and weeks to travel into Florida for 50 degre e weather, and rain, and what a good friend relayed to be some of the worst weather of Florida's season thus far. Living down there would give one a better hold on what it's been like, and this friend hasn't been pleased at all this year. Which of course means that fruit prices could be up a bit this year, but we'll see. It is interesting to realize how much a party mood does in deed depend on the weather, and the weather here wasn't exactly pleasant. It was rather rainy and wet, and a bit cold. Good things did happen though, and they even happened at Parkside. On Tuesday, Parkside sponsored the Very Special Arts Festival. For those of you who have never experienced this memorable occasion, it is a festival put on here at Parkside over every spring break, designed to help young children in the areas of fine arts. The children were a riot. Some are disabled, some are not, but they are all fun, and the experiences I had made me want to do all of it over again on Wednesday. I worked with children in clay. I was an artists assistant, and found it quite interesting that um ' ma ^ na ^ ons °f these young children are somewhat fresher than even my own. They sculpted everything from E.T. characters to Easter Baskets, from sets of dice to make - a - believe chocolate chip cookies. They were all artists for a day. One little boy even to make me a pencil face they clay) started holder. The fact that some of the children were disabled didn't make a difference at all when it came to communicating. When I walked across the hall to ' painting, (which is where went after working with ^ay, they all demanded that I sit down and get something painted on my face Of course I did. It was a rainbow with a cloud and they all clapped after the clown finished the painting. Some of the university students who saw me strolling down the hall with this design painted on my face looked at me like I was crazy, others knew that I had had just as much fun as the children. When I came home with this on ™y face ' my mother asked me if I had been drinking, my father asked who I was with, and my clever brother asked me, "What's that glob on the side of your face?? Then he asked where he could have it done. I told him, 'anywhere you like." Then on Wednesday came Capsule Horses. I mean Capsule College. One of the courses offered was all about horses, and I found it quite intriguing that there were so many different classes that could be taken. I should have attended the Horse Course, but instead I attended a capsule given by a counselor and a student leader. Connie Cummings, and Pat Mulligan were the instructors for Back to school, Is it For You 9?

The festival, one of a number of similar festivals being held around the country, had the largestnumber of participants in the nation. The festival offered handicapped persons hands - on workshop experience, featuring performances and exhibits involving both the fine and performing arts. About 80 artists, performers and craftsmen from nosha ' R acine and Milwaukee areas were involved. A number of volunteers from student and community organizations assisted with the program. Festival participants came from the Racine and Kenosha Unified School Districts, Racine County Schools and adult centers in Racine and Kenosha Counties. They included mentally handicapped, hearing impaired, visually impaired, orthopedically handicapped, learning disabled, behavioral disabled and those with chronic diseases. The festival was organized by the Very Special Arts Festival Committee, an organization of area educators and other interested community residents. It is funded by businesses and service organizations in Racine and Kenosha, and by the National Committee on Arts for the Handicapped, an educational affiliate of the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. Co - directors of the festival were Eadie Koch of the Racine Unified School District, and Buddy Couvion of Parkside. The Festival ran on the concourse level of Parkside's academic complex. In conjunction with the festival, an art show of works by handicapped people was also on display in the Comm Arts Gallery the day of the festival. Letter Continued From Page Two Sbbw^tz included, feel degraded? Those in power are the beneficiaries of such imbalance. Pornography is made by men, for men. 5. Again, I feel the point was missed jn regard to the self - hatred women develop when they compare themselves unfavorably to women in pornographic films. Mr. Schwartz indicates that men too have these feelings of inadequacy in regard to their appearance. The difference lies, in the fact that women are socialized from birth to measure their worth in terms of physical beauty. Men do not have to "answer for" their physical "imperfections" on a day to day basis. Their identities are not dependant upon their appearance alone. Women on the other hand, are judged continuously for what they look like. After years of socialization, this is of primary concern to many women and becomes an internalized quest. I am in agreement with Mr. Schwartz that the movies shown in the Union Cinema should be representative of the majority. We differ however, in the definition of who the majority is. Mr. Schwartz seems to believe that P.A.B. is representing the majority in this case. In actuality, P.A.B. is the minority attempting to make decisions for the majority. I am not advocating censorship, nor is anyone else who opposes the movie "Emmanuel." We are challenging people to open their minds, and as Mr. Schwartz says in his letter, "look at all sides of an issue." Carol A.

Photos b y M asood s hatiq Alumni's Phonathon nets '13,000 Over $16,000 in pledges and matching contributions was collected during the UW - Parkside Alumni Association's first annual fund - raising campaign, which ended last week. The money will go for a new merit scholarship program at UW - P and books and periodicals for the university library. More than 70 volunteers, including UW - P arkside graduates and current students, conducted a phonathon to solicit contributions, held nightly last week Sunday t h r o u g h T h u r s d a y ( M a r . 6-10 ). The phonathon garnered a total of $13,817, including $11,982 in pledges and $1,835 in matching contributions from area firms including American Motors Corp. and S. C. Johnson & Son, Inc. Of 1,850 alumni contacted during the phonathon, 614, or 34%, pledged specific amounts and 206, or 15%, said they would consider contributing. Thomas Krimmel, Director of Development and Alumni Affaire at UW - P, said research shows that a 20 to 25% favorable response rate is considered good for phonathons in general. A mail campaign launched in January attracted $2,004 in contributions, and $400 in matching funds. Schon to be be Distinguished Visiting Scholar James Burke, television host and documentary writer for the British Broadcasting Corp. whose series on the history of technology, "Connections," drew widespread praise when aired in the U. S. in 1979, will be one of two Honors Program Distinguished Visiting Scholars at the University of Wisconsin - Parkside this semester. Burke will visit UW - P a r k s i d e A p r i l 4-5. That brought the total amount pledged, collected and expected in matching contributions to $16,221. Krimmel said the original goal was $8,000. "The enormously enthusiastic response by UW - Parkside alumni illustrates the high level of commitment our graduates have to their alma mater," he said. "Even in difficult economic times our graduates showed how deeply they care for UW - Parkside." Jan Oechler, a 1982 UW - Parkside graduate, attracted the most pledges during the phonathon, raising $1,010. Susan Wesley, a 1974 gr aduate, chaired the fund - raising campaign. DONALD SCHON Donald A. Schon, Ford Professor of Urban Affairs and Education at the Massachusetts Institute of Te chnology, who is an authority on creativity and technical innovation, will visit the c a m p u s M ay 2-4. The visits are being coordinated by students in UW - Parkside's Honors Program, which is directed by Professor of Communications Lee Thayer. Agendas of the visiting scholars, both of whom will meet with students as well as the general public, will be available soon. Burke, who holds bachelor's and master's degrees in English literature from Oxford University and believes each technological breakthrough is the result of a long series of seemingly unrelated discoveries, has written and hosted several TV documentaries, two of which have been broadcast nationally in the U. S., "Connections," by PBS and "The Inventing of America," by NBC in 1979. Schon is interested in the process of stimulating technical creativity and organizational learning. He holds a bachelor's degree from Yale University and master's and PhD degrees from Harvard. He has written more than 50 articles for professional and scholarly journals and is the author of fiv e books, two of which currently are available at UW - P's Campus Store.

CAROLE JARR, of Kenosha, fashions a miniature dol I during a class on making items for doll houses. Think P iece Continued From Page Two (nothing or everything) between the two people, by using the words we have and by giving them whatever emphasis we do, we are creating an image and that's what we talk about. Here's where so many people run into trouble. They take that image as being the thing itself. Through this process an innocent evening between two friends can become a passionate romp between a sex kitten and a stud. Whenever the image is taken as being the thing itself, detrimental consequences can arise for those holding that belief. And unfortunately these people are usually among the majority. I suppose some solace might be found in a saying we in the communication department have: Whatever Natalie tells me about John tells me more about Natalie than it does about John. What this is proposing is that the way we describe something lends insight as to what type of person we are. Applying this to our theme, we might say that whenever someone is gossiping, the potential is there for us to learn more about that person than about the gossip. It's a hell of a concept knowing that we can create people, situations, and even worlds with words. It's important to remember that this is the process we are participating in when we gossip; that we are not discussing people or what they did but we are creating people and their situations.

Oscar opinions offered Cuzner and Dr. Who hit the airwaves by Tony Rogers Feature Editor I've got great news for Ron Cuzner and Dr. Who fans. Sound confusing? Let me explain. Ron Cuzner, after a fairly long absence on the Milwaukee airwaves, is back on the air with 'the dark side.' Cuzner was hired by WLUM radio in Milwaukee, which features a soul / funk format. However, Cuzner has his old midnight to six time slot back, and his jazz format as well. WLUM is located at 102 on the FM dial, so jazz lovers tune in and rejoice! More good news. Channel 10, WMVS in Milwaukee, has purchased the entire Tom Baker package of 'Dr. Who' episodes. The show will air Friday nights at 10:30, and then repeat Saturday afternoons at 2 p. m. ^he best news is that the show starts tomorrow night!

Enrollment is limited, and immediate response requested from those interested. by Dave Schroeder Soon the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences will announce their choices for the top honors of the film industry. Everyone has their opinion of which picture or performer was their favorite, and which picture or performer the Academy will pick. I will be giving you my opinion in three sections: The Top Acting Honors, The Top Overall Picture Honors (Picture, Director, Screenplay), and the Forgotten Awards (Costume, Set, Makeup, and Other Designs). The Acting Honors are very difficult to predict this year, especially in the men's categories. So I think I will start with the Supporting category first, and rate the actors in reverse order of the strength of their performance. Leslie Ann Warren (Victor, Victoria) turned in a very fine performance, but it is not up to par with the rest of the women in this category. Teri Garr (Tootsie). I'm glad that this actress is finally getting the recognition she deserves. She was hilarious as Hoffman's acting student, friend, and sometimes lover, but her part was not as substantial as the rest in this category, and I don't think she has the political clout to get the award this time around. Glenn Close (The World According to Garp) gave a very compelling performance as Garp's mother, and I was pleasantly surprised to see her nomination considering it was her first screen role. Jessica Lange (Tootsie). Boy, has this girl come a long way. In the short time since her acting debut in King Kong (or disaster, depending on how you look at it), she has developed that certain sense of presence that I always thought some actors were just born with. Wonderful in Tootsie, and the top contender for the award because of her double nomination. Kim Stanley (Frances) was superb as Frances' obsessed mother, turning out the finest performance of the ladies in this category. My Pick — Ki m Stanley. The Academy will probably pick — Je ssica Lange Best Supporting Actor This was the hardest category to pick from, but Charles Durning (The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas) is easy to weed out when others more deserving of the nomination were looked over. John Lithgow (The World According to Garp), as the SOPHIES CHOICE watch this wonderful show Friday nights on channel ten, Saturday mornings at 9 a. m. on channel 11, Saturday afternoons on ten, and then Sunday nights at 11 p. m. on channel 11.1 know what I'm going to be doing on the weekends. Philadelphia Eagle - turned - woman, was perfect and is well deserving of this nomination, but was not good enough to win it. Robert Preston (Victor, Victoria) was hilarious as Julie Andrews' homosexual friend. The funniest man in drag of the year. (Yes, even funnier than Dustin Hoffman.) Louis Gosset, Jr. (An Officer and a Gentleman). One of the two top seeds for this award. Superior as the tough Drill Sergeant shaping his rag - tag battalion, Gosset's fine characterization made it very difficult for me to make my final choice. James Mason (The Verdict).

The film is, at times, agonizing to wateh, and in the end truly depressing. But Jessica Lange's shining performance as depression - era movie starlet Frances Farmer is well worth seeing. The film is one of the best I've seen for some time. This chronicle of Farmer's life begins with a demonstration of her intelligent and rebellious personality. In her staid home town, Farmer writes a high school essay of the death of God. Of course, this prompts a local uproar, but Frances "stands by her guns." Eventually she wins an acting competition and travels, against her mother's wishes, to the Soviet Union on an acting tour. Returning to the states, and to Hollywood', F armer is swallowed up on the repressive contract - player system so prevalent in the 1930's, where stars were "owned" by their studios and had no creative control over what roles they played, or how they would be played. Finding her parts stilted and flat, Farmer moves to New York, and Broadway. For a time she finds a satisfying life in the theater — sh e has a challenging role in a successful play, and is in love with the play's author. But when the entourage moves to London, Frances is dumped — by the troupe and her lover. Frances returns to Hollywood only to become involved in some sleazoid movie productions. She grows increasingly frustrated, and feels that she "can't escape." Her behavior becomes somewhat erratic and she begins drinking. Finally, she is arrested after assaulting a makeup assistant, and as an alternative to prison is placed in a home for the mentally ill. Eventually Frances is put in the custody of her mother, leaving her mother to decide whether she is sane or not. The problem is that Frances wants to give up her life of sta rdom and live quietly, while her mother wants to live vicariously in Frances' fame. This leads to the film's tragic end, one of the most difficult and painful film sequences I have ever watched. Jessica Lange is brilliant as. Frances Farmer. She injects the role with the same spirit and sensitivity that we sense Farmer actually had. To watch the slow destruction of this woman was heartbreaking, and more emotionally disturbing than even "Sophie's Choice." This could not have been accomplished without an extremely strong performance from Lange. Both Meryl Streep and Jessica Lange have been nominated for best actress, and although I think Streep will probably take the award, Lange is equally deserving with this fine performance. Technically, Streep's role may have been slightly more difficult (learning Polish, adopting an accent) but Lange very effectively conveys the terror of a free spirit imprisoned and crushed. This film is excellent and the kind of material that Jessica Lange deserves. Oscars Continued From Page Five Mason over Lou Gosset, Jr.? Their performances were very much at an equal level until one part of T he Verdict, where Mason revealed his genius. All at once in the final court scenes, he riveted the audience as he became rattled, which was something that the character which he portrayed does not do often. This stroke of genius is what earned him my choice over any of the others. My Pick — James Mason. The Academy's pick — Lou Gosset, Jr. Best Actress Julie Andrews (Victor, Victoria). Sorry Julie, you were very funny, but you didn't convince me you were a man as much as your Co - st ar convinced me he was a woman. Debra Winger (An Officer and a Gentleman). She surprised me as Richard Gere's love interest. A very sensitive and warm portrayal, but she won't get the award. Sissy Spacek (Missing). Riveting in her portrayal of the wife of a missing reporter in South America. A fine performance, but it was not as fine as the remaining two in this category. Besides, she just won hers a couple of years ago. Jessica Lange (Frances). A stunning performance as the tragic Frances Farmer. Through her this movie lived, and this performance is definite Oscar quality, but because of the last woman in this category's strong performance, Lange will not get it this time around. However, I do believe she will win Best Supporting Actress, not so much for her Tootsie role, but as second prize for her Frances portrayal. Meryl Streep (Sophie's Choice). WOW!! All I can say is that this is the Actress of the Eighties. As Sophie, Streep has turned in the finest screen performance in any movie of a ny actress that I have ever seen. Strong words, huh? And I mean them. This is the runaway winner for this award for this year. My Pick, AND the Academy's pick — Me ryl Streep. Best Actor Another very difficult category to assess. But, much harder to pick the Academy's choice than my own. Peter O'Toole (My Favorite Year). I know that I will get a lot of flack from certain friends of mine on this one. Peter, I think that your performance was wonderful, but not nearly as fine as the other four.

Dustin Hoffman (Tootsie). Yes, Robert Preston may have been funnier, but Dustin Hoffman made Dorothy come to life as a totally different character from Michael. This is, I feel, his best performance to date. Ben Kingsley (Gandhi). I am certain that no one else other than this man could have possibly attempted to play this peaceful warrior. And if anyone had, I would not have enjoyed the movie at all. „ Jack Lemmon (Missing). Jack once again proves he can make us really mad at the establishment as he did in The China Syndrome. A v ery powerful performance. Paul Newman (The Verdict). He has really earned this year's award for his compelling and understated performance as a down and out, alcoholic lawyer. His creation was just one notch above the rest. My Pick — Pa ul Newman. The Academy's pick — either Paul Newman or Ben Kingsley. Here are some people that were overlooked for their performances in these categories: Best Supporting Actress — Charlotte Rampling (The Verdict), Drew Barrymore (E.T.). Best Supporting Actor — Robert McNaughton (E.T.), Jack Warden (The Verdict), Sydney Pollack (Tootsie), Kevin Kline (Sophie's Choice). Best Actor — Craig Wasson (Four Friends), Henry Thomas (E.T.), Richard Gere (An Officer and a Gentleman), Peter MacNichol (Sophie's Choice), and almost the entire cast of Diner.

He added, nace walking is great, it's fun, and the competition is at a high level. I do it to see how well I can do, I don't know, just to do well and have fun." by Patricia Cumbie Parkside is well - known for its racewalking, as it has produced many world class walkers such as Jim Heiring, Ray Sharp and Tommy Edwards. Senior Will Preischel seems to be following this tradition. At Nationals recently, Will placed 6th, although much of his indoor season has been hampered by a pulled hamstring. Preischel is majoring in Electrical Engineering Technology, and may graduate this semester. Will started his race walking career when he was a senior in high school in Buffalo, N.Y. "My high school coach got me interested and told me about Parkside and the coaches here. Parkside has the best race walkers in the country, so I came here. Coach DeWitt is an excellent coach," he commented. He races for the Chicago Track Club when he is not racing for Parkside, which is usually in the summer. However, this summer he may go to a training camp in Colorado. If he doesn't go he will stay here in Wisconsin and train with DeWitt. Last summer was rather ill - fated in that he injured his ankle last May. This January he pulled a hamstring in his left knee and he wasn't in peak form, even though, he came in 6th in the USA W alk Racing Nationals in New York on March 4.

This year's show will be March 24-27 from 9-9 Thursday - Saturday and 10-5 on Sunday. Over 50 manufacturers of fine fishing tackle and sporting goods, along with several area sportsmen's clubs and groups, will have displays set up for the public. Ten seminars on different topics relating to fishing and boating will be presented over the four day show. Nationally known pro fishermen and guides including Tony Portincaso and pro muskie guide Joe Bucher will be speaking on topics of interest to all anglers. Several demonstrations and "Mini - Clinics" will be conducted throughout the duration of the show. The show is free of charge and open to the public. Fencing Nationals Sam Waller, of Kenosha, will be Parkside's entry in the 39th NCAA National Fencing Championship to be held at UW - Parkside on March 24-26. Waller, fencing the sabre, qualified March 5 at the Great Lakes meet held at the University of Detroit. This will be Sam's second time at the Nationals. There will be 36 fencers in each of the three weapons — foil, sabre and epee — representing approximately 50 teams from throughout the nation. Fencing each day starts at 9:30 a.m. and spectators are welcome. This is Parkside's third time hosting the NCAA Na tional meet. Thursday's competition will eliminate 12 men in each event, setting up 24 - man round robin matches Friday and Saturday. Opening day competition could continue until approximately 5:30 p.m. Friday and Saturday matches should run until 2 or 3 p.m. Both team and individual championships will be contested, with the top six fencers in each weapon earning All - American honors. The entire fieldhouse floor will be the site of t he action which takes place on twelve 54 - foot strips. Epee, which includes the entire body as a target, and foil, which is confined to the torso, are "thrusting" weapons and touches (points) are recorded electronically. Sabre is a thrusting or cutting weapon whose target is the upper body and relies on judges to determine successful slashes or thrusts. Coach Loran Hein, who has turned out two national champions and a World University team member in his 17 years at Parkside and the two - year UW Center in Kenosha which preceded it, tabs Wayne State as the team to beat. I got hurt. Just think what I could have done if I wasn't," Will said. Like any athlete, his racing career has had a few highs and lows. Will said, "As for low points I guess was last summer when I got hurt in May. I hurt my left ankle, I just wrecked it. The high point was being ranked 11th in "Track and Field" magazine. You know you've made it when you're in that magazine; it's THE runners magazine." Parkside being a commuter school, most of the students are from the Racine - Kenosha area, and can't figure out why anyone in their right mind would come from Buffalo to Parkside. Will's reason makes very good sense, though. "The race walking program is the best in the country. Everyone else has heard of P arkside around the country, except those people around here." Getting ready for an athletic event is an important part of competing. When asked how he handled such large national meets he replied, "I used to get nervous at all those big meets. You have to have confidence, and I just concentrate of w hat I have to do. At this last meet in New York there were thousands of people. It doesn't bother me anymore."

It's the new United States Football League (USFL). Optimism is running high among the league officials, and with good reason. They have some quality players (most of them will play for Chicago) and they have some experienced coaches. But most of all, they have financial backing, in the form of TV contracts with ABC and ESPN totaling $36 million. Not too bad, eh?? Well.... The season begins on March 6 with 5 games being played. Don't expect any one of t hese games to be very well played; after all, the teams have only been practicing for a month. In fact, the USFL has only been around officially for about 10 months. It may take a few weeks before we see some cohesive team play. Lets take a look at the teams in the new league. Head coaches' names in parenthesis: Atlantic Division — Boston Breakers (Dick Coury), New Jersey Generals (Chuck Fairbanks), Philadelphia Stars (Jim Mora), Washington Federals (Ray Jauch). Central Division — Birmingham Stallions (Rollie Dotsch), Chicago Blitz (George Allen), Michigan Panthers (Jim Stanley), Tampa Bay Bandits (Steve Spurrier). Pacific Division — Arizona Wranglers (Doug Shively); Denver Gold (Red Miller); Los Angeles Express (Hugh Campbell), Oakland Invaders (John Ralston). As you look at the list of coaches, there are a few familiar names, but what about the rest? A couple are former Canadian Football League head coaches, a couple are former college assistant coaches, and the rest are former NFL assistants. Now for the players. The people who run this league have pulled off something that they weren't expected to. They were able to get some name players to sign with them. Among the notables are Stan White, former linebacker with, most recently, the Detroit Lions; Virgil Livers, former corner back with the Bears; and Mike Rae, former back - up to Kenny Stabler at Oakland with the Raiders. The surprising turn was the ability to sign many quality college draft choices, such as Tim Wrightman and Tim Spencer from Ohio State, David Greenwood CLASSIFIEDS ARCHAEOLOGY/TRAVEL: Excavate a biblical site, 6 credits, 1983 Summer Session.

RANGER STAFF: Be prepared for one of the funnest issues of the years; April 1. A PARKSIDE PLAYER aims for two. from Wisconsin, and Herschel Walker. It is my belief that, despite the fact that practice time has been short, and despite the fact that most of the coaches are going to have rough going during the season, this league will survive this year and will be around for at least a few years to come. The league's big advantage is playing in the spring and early summer, so there is no competition from the NFL. Baseball shouldn't affect them much either, because USFL games are only on weekends and Monday nights. Besides, you have six months to see baseball. So, based on all factors, this thing called the USFL should survive (for a while). I mentioned Herschel Walker before. You would have to have jus come from a cave if you don't know what has happened in relation to Mr. Walker. Herschel Walker has become an instant millionaire. He has signed a three year, $5 million contract with the New Jersey Generals of the USFL. He will get $1 million a year for playing, and a $1.5 million signing bonus. All last week, Herschel denied that he was even talking to the Generals. The NCAA investigated reports that he had signed already and, according to his agent, he signed the contract on Feb. 17, six days before he admitted doing it. However, the first version of the contract had a 24 - hour escape clause, so he could turn down the offer. But in signing in the first place, the University of Georgia declared him ineligible to finish his college career. On Wednesday, he officially signed the pact that will probably seta new precedent for salaries in pro football. I was angered and disappointed that Herschel Walker became a professional. Because of this, he is now unable to compete in the Olympics. He probably will finish his education at Georgia, but he can't play football. I truly thought Herschel had more sense than to screw up his college football career. He was only about 850 yards short of Tony Dorsett's record for career rushing yards. Besides that, he was a certain first -round draft choice in the NFL. He would have only had to wait for one year to be rolling in the money. But as Walker said in a statement released by his agent, In denying I signed a contract (last week), I made a mistake. No one realizes more than I that I am a human being. I ask for your forgiveness." * * * Sports Shots Shots: Billy Martin is STILL with the Yankees . . .
