The increase is due to a proposal made by the Board of Regents in its 1983-85biennial budget to raise the resident academic fees and nonresident tuition to an average of the instructional and educational cost; the remaining 70% is state appropriated. The actual cost to students in undergraduate universities, such as Parkside, is 27% of the costs. Ph.D. institutions, such as r-~aukee and Madison, require ~ Its to pay 30% of costs. Nonrl.-Jt students are changed as close to 100% of costs as possible. One factor that varies at each university is the segregated fee charge. ores were implemented at Parkside, Segregated fees are the monies used he said.

We simply had to draw down on the Athletic Department," he said. Goetz feeIs that the UW system is in great need of a better faculty salary increase program. "On the one hand there are increases in the budget for the library and instructional program, on the other hand there are no salary increases. Now the feeling is that we funded those improvements out of low salary," he said. The Faculty Star Fund, legislative-approved money used to keep outstanding professors in the UW system, is inadequate, feels Goetz. flit will never compensate for an adequate faculty salary program. The dollars provided were not enough to amply reward the breadth of quality on this campus. Itjust scratched the surface," he added.

As many of you have probably noticed, there is a remarkably different look to Ranger's page size and make-up. This is largely due to a change in printers. This change will help us in achieving our goal of becoming more technologically advanced in the way the newspaper's production is operated. Computerization has replaced the old image of newspaper reporters banging out their stories on old scuffed up typewriters. Ranger has a long way to go in the tolal transition, but the initial step has now been laken. Although the actual page size is now slightly smaller lban before, there will actually be more Ranger every week because financially, we will be able to sizeably increase the number of pages. It is, and always has been, Ranger's purpose to publish the best newspaper possible with a small (but dedicated) slaff 01 students - yes, we are 100 percent student-run. We feel that these newest changes will expand our potential enormously But that potential will only be realized if you, the readers help us in whatever way you can - by joining us, communi. cating with us, or just by supporting us. Ken Meyer, Editor 3 Thursday. September 8. 1983 Il'\, Til Ratner The appointment of Lorman A. to .head UW Center System Ratner, Vice Chancellor and Dean 01 Faculty at UW-Parkside, as Executive Dean of the University of Wisconsin Center System was approved July 15 by the UW System Board 01 Regents. Ratner, 50, who has been the number two administrator at UWParkside since 19n, was selected . lrom nearly 100 applicants to replace Robert Polk, who had been acting head 01 the Center System until his retirement last month. Ratner will begin his new duties this montb. In recommending the appointment, UW System President Robert M. O'Neil said, "Folh.wmg J national search we have tocnd within the UW System a person who seems ideally suited to be the Executive Dean of the UW Center System." O'Neil said Ratner's combination of "scholar and administrator provides an ideal qualfication for the leadership of the UW Centers in this difficult and demanding time." The Center System consists of 13 two-year campuses throughout the state which provide basic freshmansophomore- curriculum and associate degree programs for the approximately 9,600 students currently enrolled. The Centers also coordinate community outreach programs for their committee in conjunction with UW-Extension and provide a wide variety of continuing education and enrichment programs. Ratner will head the Center System administrative group headquartered in Madison. "While I am obviously sad to leave UW-Parkside, a truly fine university, 1 am pleased and excited to have the opportunity to work with those many people who have made the UW Centers excellent higher education institutions. Their commitment to providing the finest possible education to commuter students is one that 1 have shared for my entire career in higher education, " Ratner said. LeRMAN RATNER "1 also am grateful to have the opportunity to continue to work in the UW System. 1 look lorward to Visiting each of the UW Centers and meeting with faculty, administrators, students and residents of the communities whose support of their Centers has been so important to the success of those institutions. "While 1 look forward," Ratner continued, "I also reflect on where 1 have been and cannot help but feel regret at leaving "this excellent university. UW-Parkside faculty excel as teachers and scholars, my administrative colleagues are first rate, and all of us-faculty, administrators, students and community residents-are fortunate in having an outstanding educational leader in Chancellor Alan Guskin. 1 leave Parkside indebted to many people, but especially AI Guskin." Guskin said that Ratner's departure "will be a loss for the campus, the community and me personally because Larry Ratner was absolutely committed to providing the highest quality education possible for our students. "At Parkslde we believe that quality programs depends on quality laculty, that good teaching and active scholarship go hand in hand. No one believed that more than Larry, and as chief academic officer he Greenbaum acting Associate Dean Ben Greenbaum will be acting Vice Chancellor until a replacement is named, announced Chancellor Alan E. Guskin. Guskin also announced the selection of a search and screen committee to recommend a successor to Lorman A. Ratner, who left the position to head the UW Center System. Ronald M. Pavalko, professor of sociology and chair of the Behavioral Science Division, will chair the 12 member search and screen committee of faculty, staff and students. Guskin said the committee would submit a list of five finalists to him and that he hoped to name the new number two administrator at UW-Parkside by Dee. 15 and to have that person on staff no later than July L Guskin said a national search will be conducted and that candidates will be from outside UW-Parkside. Greenbaum, a professor of vice-chancellor physics, has been at UW-Parkside since 1970 and has served as an Associate Dean since 1978. He also serves as coordinator of the Office of Graduate Programs. An active researcher, Greenbaum and several colleagues in the Parkside Science Division have received about $500,000 in research project grants since 1971. In addition to Pavalko, the search and screen committee members are: Michael S. Dassis, associate dean and professor of sociology; Robert H. Canary, professor of English and chair of the Humanities Division; Arthur V. Corr, professor of business management; Timotby V. Fossum, associate professor of applied computer science and chair of the Engineering Science Division; Eugene M. Goodman, professor of life science; Kenneth R. Hoover, associate professor of political science; Lionel A. Maldonado. associate professor of sociology; Esrold A. Nurse, asBEN GREENBAUM sistant director of Student Development; Rhoda-Gale Pollack, associate professor of dramatic arts and chair of the Fine Arts Division; Carla J, Stoffle. assist. ant chancellor for Educational Services; and Phil Pogreba. President of PSGA played the key role in working with faculty to make that commitment to quality a reality. "OUf faculty, our programs and thus the education we provide our students are much better today than when Larry joined us, and he deserves a great deal of the credit for that. "His wise counsel and leadership will be much missed, especially by me, but at least it will remain in the UW System and the Center System will profit directly from N," Guskin said. Guskin said plans lor Iilling Ratner's position will be announced soon. At UW-Parkside, Ratner has been responsible for all academic activities and for review and approval of all faculty appointments, promolions and tenure recommendations. Since 1977, the university has recruited about one-third of its professorial rank faculty, has planned and implemented 10 new undergraduate programs. received graduate work accreditation, established two graduate programs and generally raised UW-Parkside's academic standards. Ratner has played key roles in UW System-wide affairs including chairing, at the request of the System president. the task force to study the future development of UW-Superior. The study was the first of its kind and most of the recommendations were adopted. Ratner currently chairs the UW System's Council on College Skills. Ratner came to UW-Parkside from Lehmann College m the City University of New York System where he chaired the History 0('- parlment and served as Dean of Academic Plannmg and Dean of Social Science Before that he taught at Hunler College (\961-721 and Ithaca College Cl95HlIl. He earned his PhD. and MA. degrees at Cornell University and his A,a cum laude from Harvard College. He is the author of the textbook. Dialogue in American History (Holt. Rinehart & Wmston 19721, co-edmor of The Development of an American Culture (Prentice-Hall 1970, St. Martin's Press 1982) and author of a number of other published articles and essays, He is a regular reviewer for history journals and IS an eduorial consultant to several major publishers.

Seplember 8. 1983 Parkside housing rapidly changing by Ken Meyer Editor The housing program has experienced a couple of changes in the last two years: last year, the Racine YMCA was contracted as "Ranger Hall," a pseudo-dormatory for Parkside students; and this year, the housing office has moved from Tallent Hall to Union 209. The one constant in the housing program is the coordinator, Shirley Schmerling, who has held that position for over 12 years. Schmerling is responsible for finding student housing and aids between 500 and 600 students a year. Although most of the apartment complexes close to Parkside and the YMCA are full, Schmerling hopes that her new office location will help students notice the housing office more and make it more accessible for those who need housing assistance. In only one year, the YMCA has been filled with so many students that further expansion at the Y is impossihle. Last year. "Ranger Hall" consisted of 85 rooms on three of the building's four residential floors -- two male and one female. This year, the fourth floor will become the second floor for female students unless a legal avenue is discovered to make it coed. The YMCA is now entirely Parkside housing except for a few steady Y residents on one of the male floors. Schmerling said the YMCA "is a great place to live for the students. (The rent) is $102 a month for a private room - where else can you get that deal with all the benefits?" The benefits include use of such facilities as the YMCA's two swimming pools, two gyms, Nautilus equipment, a running track, and racquethall, squash and handball courts. "Everybody has their own private room," said Schmerling. "They also have accessibility to all the students, and it is treated as a dorm." But, many people ask, Why aren't there any "legitimate" dorms at Parkside? "I think at the time that they built the university in the late 6Osearly 70s, there were so many dorms throughout the state standing empty ...that at that time there was a freeze on building dorms in the state," said Schmerling, giving her personal opinion. "I really fee that the university was just developing," she continued, "and when it carne time to build the building, they certainly needed the Phy Ed building more than they needed dorms, and they certainly needed Molinaro HalLand the new Union more than they needed dorms." "See, they always felt that (Parkside) was between two communities so there was always enough housing out there that kids could manage." The master plan for Parkside, drawn up at its inception, included dorms, but, said Schmerling, "They expected 25,000 students (by now) and when you're at the 5,000 level it's different." Is there any possibility of dorms in the future? "I hope so," said Schmerling, noting that a Housing Task Force last year made a full recommendation for having dorms on campus. "Maybe not conventionaltype dorms. but something." The task force also decided that there was a need for a full-time housing office on campus. . When Schmerling became housing coordinator, Parkside was the new-born infant in the UW system and her job required only 20 hours a week. With the growth of the university, her job grew as well. When a student contacts her about finding housing, Schmerling first finds out the student's needs. "Sometimes they have to quit school because they can't afford the cost of living today (so) Itry to lind them low-cost housing." she said. Finding low-cost housing comes easier to Schmerling than it might to others because she was on Kenosha's City Planning Committee for six years and she "knew every building that was being built in the city of Kenosha." In order to find housing for students, Schmerling consults news. papers and "is on the telephone constantly. I happen to know lots of people in the community, so I call Schmerling adds personal touch by Ken Meyer Editor ited southeastern Wisconsin.

"I mean, that's saying somethiug about the caliber of our students. I brag about that to everybody." Schmerling loves her work, but her relationships aren't just with students needing housing assistance. She helps "everybody. I think many students come up (here) on the pretense of using the housing office who have other kinds of problems. " Especially personal problems. "They want to taUt," explained Schmerling, "and Iwant tbem to be llbIe' to ·~·ib·lIere·ablI ClIk: l' have. beea active.illl/ae C • llllity, I have connections, so if people have problems, I know when! to steer them. II I can't help them myselI, I know who to call." Some of the Parkside sludents Schmerling has betped include the cheerleaders. She quit as their adviser after 10 years, but she feels nothing but pride about the group that sbe feels grew not only in size but in the work they do for the university - "more than just the kids who get out and cheer the night of the game." • One example of how Schmerling cares about the students she works with involves the many foreign students she helps find housing. Not only does she find the residence, but she also shows them where necessities such as food stores, banks and local transportation outlets are located. "I feel like, bey, you don'l jusl stick a kid (somewhere) and say, 'Go ahead, kid. Make it.' You can't do that. The way these kids start.oil\, ;0 thWI' u.e, eDd Ill> .. scbOOl.

But that viewpoint has changed over the years, as has the housing. office at Parkside. This year Schmerling wants to develop a social group at the YMCA involving "activities that will bring the students (to campus) together It's a matter of what the kids want to do. ThaI's where I'm putting my efforts litis year - I want to make dorm lire here something that all the kids want." Although Schmerting is very active finding housing for studenls, she also finds time to beneIit Ihe community. Kenosha Mayor John Bilotti has appointed her "Kenosha's Ambassador to the World."

September 8, 1983 student organizations by Jellllie Tuakieicz News Editor "There's nothing to do!" Not true, according to PAB (Parkside Activities Board). PAB is the organization responsible lor programming most 01 the student activities on campus. Some 01 these activities are dances, liIms, outdoor recreation, coffee houses, performing arts and the ski trips, There are currently 50 students participating in PAB, making the organization one 01 the largest on campus. These students are appointed to one 01 seven committees: coffeehouse, contemporary entertainment, films, outdoor recreation, performing arts and lectures, Video, and sight and sound (technical crew), Committees meet at least twice a month to plan programs. President of the organization is Chris Hammelev and Mark Schozen is Vice President. According to Hammelev, one of the biggest problems lor PAB is getting students back on campus for events. To combat this problem more activities are being planned lor the afternoons during activities period. Hammelev feels that a!ternooD activities will reach a greater variety 01 people. "If Parkside liad dorms we would be all set. But once people go home, they don't like comiQg back. They think it's a lot easier to go to a bar," sbe said. PAB is bringing in a variety of new and dillerent entertainment, porposely not booking 10cal acts, to give students an alternative to acts available in the community, added Hemmel ev, A new film series will be shown on campus, offering the classics, which will feature a dillerent theme each month, September's theme is comedy. The films will be shown every Tuesday, beginning Sept. 13, in the Union Cinema at 7 p.m. Admission is free. "Students should be aware of this organization because if they want to see something at Parkside we are the people to talk to," said Hammelev. The PAB office is located in Union 202 and the phone number is 553-2650. soc by Corby Anderson The Student Organization Council (SOC), a standing committee of the Parkside Student Government Organization (PSGA), was formed to promote communication among and faster support for the various student organizations on campus as well as to help create an opportunity to enhance the learning experience at Parkside. There are currently more than 50 clubs in SOC. Some of the more active groups belonging to SOC, according to SOC chairperson Valerie Olson, include: Parkside Associatlon of Wargamers, Accounting Club, Engineering Science Club, rntervarsity Christian Fellowship, Antbropology Club, Political Science Club, International Students' Organization, and the Black Student Organization. To maintain a liaison among, the groups and to coordinate club events, all club presidents or designated delegates meet at least four times each semester and once a month during the summer. SOC receives its operating funds from the Segregated University Fees Allocations Committee, (SUFAC), a subcommittee- of PSGA. For the 1983-84 academic year, SOC will receive $22,000, $18,000 of which will be distributed among the various student organizations through its Budget and Review Committee. Those who would like to meet with other students with' similar interests should contact the Student Activities Office (Union 209) or Valerie Olson, SOC president, at 554- 2594. Also, if you have an interest that is not already represented, forming a new club is easy to do, and the members of SOC can assist you in finding an advisor and getting started. Ranger, the student newspaper at Parkside, is an independent newspaper run completely by students both editorially and financially. Entering its 12th year, Ranger bas gone through many changes-4ncluding this year. "I'm sure quite a few students were surprised when they picked up this issue of Ranger," said Editor Ken Meyer. "This issue is the beginning of what I call 'the new Ranger.' I -'UII very confident that these latest changes are to Ranger's advantage." Ranger bas many things to offer students who join the staff, said Meyer.

Pam Brouwers, president of the organization, cited its functions as a referral, identification, liason and support group. "We are here to give support to people who come back to school," she said. A woman wbo wished to attend Parkside but was concerned about her two children contacted the Peer Support Office. Brouwers referred her to the Child Care Center and urged her to register. Brouwers was contacted by a 51 year old woman who was considerI PSGA have a hard time keeping a full membership in the Senate, which I find hard to believe ... because of the limited number of positions." said Pogreba. The Senate has four standing committees: SOC (Student Organization Council), which is comprised of students from every club and organization on campus; SUFAC (Segregated University Fee Allocations Committee). which IS responsible for allocating funds to organizations; Student Services. concerned with services that will benelit the students: and Legislative AHairs. dealing with laws and bills or any legislative action taking place at the local. state and federal level. Women's Affairs, a subcommittee of Legislative Affairs, discusses women's issues and provides var8 ing taking courses but was a little leery about the idea. Brouwers gave the woman the names and phone numbers of two current students also 51 year old. "I felt these women could iIlentify with each other because they're in the same age group," Brouwers said. "We can't label ourselves as counselors because we are not trained in that area, but we can identify with each others problems and give support. " Peer Support also tries to be a liason between nontradtional stu. dents and the university. Approximately 400 nontraditional students applied at Parkside and about half have registered for the fall semester. Peer Support tries to personally contact the students who apply. "It is reassuring for tbem to "That's the way it should be," said Meyer. "The best way to learn something is to do it-not read it in a book. It gives people a sense of sell-worth because not only do they accomplish something, tbey also learn from it. ..

I!/R:I :-u Parkside hosts 16th annual Gen Con by Bob Kiesling Every year during the third week in August, the normally staid halls of Parkside buzz with the activity of over 7000 fantasy game afficiandos who converge on the school to assume an alter-identiy at Ceo Con, a massive four-day role-playing game convention that is said to be the largest of its type in the world. Players this year came from as far away as England, Australia and Israel to assume characters in role playing games. games where players hack, slash and sometimes reason their way tbrougb a fantasy world. said Kerry Lloyd. president of Oamelords. Ltd .. a supplier of gaming supplies, "where you go on an adventure where princesses are' beautiful and frequent. a world where dragons are horrible and existen." Ceo Con itself began sixteen years ago as a small get-together for war-game enthusiasts to sharpen their skills and test ideas against other players in what was then a relatively obscure pastime. But with the advent of the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game about ten years ago. the convention outgrew its Lake Geneva headquarters (the name stands for GENeva CONvention) and moved to Parkside to accommodate the increasing number of game fans who turn out every year to battle the forces of evil lor good.) According to TSR Hobbies, the creator of Dungeons & Dragons and .. sponsor of the convention. the average player is male, between the ages of 10 and 24 and a student. although the female contingent is growing rapidly, a spokeswoman for TSR said. An in creasing number of professionals play the game each year as well. "doctors, lawyers. things like that." said TSR spokesman Deiter Sturm. The convention, hwover, is not limited to Dungeons & Dragons, although one of the main events is a 2,000 player sanctioned Advanced Dungeons and Dragons tournament which draws some of the best players from around the world. Many of the games are historical simulations of famous battles. Every year a tournament is held for "Dawn Patrol" players, a game that recreates the art of aerial combat during WWI. They bold the world's largest dawn patrol game at. of course the crack of dawn Saturday morning. There are many other types of role-playing games and tournaments held as well. and some of these have a distinctly local flavor. .. Death Race Tbrougb The Streets of Lake Geneva," based on the very popular "Car Wars" game, is everything the name implies. Others include "Operation Parkside", where two teams of agents. one CIA and tbe other KGB, try to out-spy each other in the nooks and shadows of tbe school. There is also "Gamma World," a Exhibitort sell their wares.t the Gen Con trade show in the Phy. Ed. bUilding game that was billed as a "battle in tbe mutants and the knights of genetic purity try to destroy the other in a battle among the ruins of a strange area known only as U of Parkside. " There are many variations on the theme encompassed in about 700 separate games tournaments and r lectures during the convention, plus countless casual games arranged by the participants. The players themselves choose to seek fame and fortune in make believe worlds for a variety of reasons. "It's something like acting. but there's no pressure." said Debbie Fulton, a college student from MI. Prospect, Ill. . She said that generally sbe will choose a character with non-human characteristics, such as her elf and dwarf characters who are "for the most part as different from my personality as possible." Another player. Tim Boylan 01 • North Canton. Ohio. who was playing an infonnal game of "Car Wars" when asked said "This is a pretty violent game," and gal a chorus of agreement from his competitors wben be added. "It's lun ". "I Ibink it would be Iun to go down the rood and test your knowledge against other drivers," he said. Boylan's vehicle for the game. which involves destroying other drivers before lbey destroy you. is a CadiBac eqUipped with a name thrower, a mine dropper, a heavy rocket. armor and a gunner. "You tbink like. wow. Ibis could really happen someday." he sa,d, Many of tbe plalyers also wear costumes that fit their roles at the convention. One player who was dressed in a long purple booded robe with no face viSible behind a seamless black mask said that he liked to use wraiths or specters in his games.

Its members sought-and received-recognition as s student organization, and seeked $3729 in student fee funding from the ur Student Senate, That money would fund a variety of "programmmg," including a newsletter, "News for Ewes," a rally, "Take Back the Bam," a support phone, "Beasttine," and a guest speaker, Marlin Perkins of television's Wild Kingdom. . If all this sounds a little unreal, it is. Bestiality at College members are actually trying to make a point about student fee allocations. A least one of its members also belongs to Students for Traditional . American Freedoms (STAF), a conservative student group that is appealing a Student Senate decision not to fund its newspaper. BAC'spresident has admitted not knowing a single bestialtst. And other members say they don't like the waythe Senate allocates student money. A Senate spokesman said BAC received recognition "because that isn't hard to get," but probahly won't get any funding, since it isn't offering any "viable programming" and hasn't identified a need for its services. Ranger followed up on the matter. "They didn't get a nickel," laughedone member of.the Senate.

The average weekly ridership ~or Iasl year's lour-day-a-week service was 75 users. meaning that 19 people per day used the evening buses. The $1 per ride charge accounted for roughly 20 percent of the total operating costs. During the spnng 1982 semester. 926 riders brought about a $4745 deficit out of the total cost of $5722; in the fall of 1983. 1280 riders cut the $6256 tolal cost into a $4976 loss. The deficits were assumed by the Parking Fund. which consists of revenue generated by parking permits and tickets. Unlike the cities' daily buses. the evening bus service was more like a charter service. so receiving slate or federal subsidies was impossible. The only way the evening service could have become cost efficient would have been to raise the ticket price to $5 or $6. which would have sizeable cut down on ridership. projects receive grants Two More lhan $40(000 in grants supporting two research projects at UW-Parkside was accepled by the UW System Board of Regents. An award of $19.764 has been given to Parkside to support continuing research into the potential health effects of overhead power transmission lines. The research is being conducted by a team of scientists headed by Prof. Ross Gundersen, a member of UW-Parkside's Biomedical Research Institute, and is funded through Health Research. Inc. of Albany, N.Y., which is managing research grants for tbe New York Slate Department of Public Heallh. Utibly companies in New York have proposed construction of overhead power transmission lines capable of carrying 765.000 volts. Gunderson, together with life science professor Eugene Goodman and physics professor Ben Greenebaum, is studying the possible impact that electromagnetic fields comparable to tbose released by the higb-voltage lines have on calcium movement in nerve cells, research which could be important in determining the potential effects of the power lines on humans and animals. The most powerful transmission lines in Wisconsin are capable of carrying 345.000 volts. The lotal grant for the lhree-year research project-currentty in its second year-is $159,757 which includes Friday's award. The Wisconsin Departme..nt of Public Instruction (DP!) awarded Parkside $22,188 for a research project being conducted by Judith Cuskin. an adjunct associate professor of anthropology. . Guskin is producing a 3Q-minute ~Ideo tape program on the education of Hrnong teenagers in public schools in Madison and Sheboygan. Tbe Hmong (pronounced Mungl are an ethmc minority hill trihe in Laos that has a distinctive language and cullure. Thousands of Hmone and Laotian people fled their home;- land during the Viet Nam war and related conflicts involving Laos, and thousands more remain in refugee camps in Thailand, Guskin said.

Too many students now define their academic experiences as completing a checklist of procedures and accumulating credits." The chancellor also reminded faculty that "there must be recognition (by them) that advising is not just dispensing of information, but rather an extension of teaching to facilitate student growth and development." Guskin said Hall universities face the critical challenge of integrating new students into the intellectual community of the university and in separating them in a sense from their past relationships" of friends who are not attending, family who may not be able to relate to the university, and from their former high school or work environment. "There are strong centrifugal forces pulling students away from the university community and the university tries to intervene ... by creating a series of centripetal forces to draw students into the intellectual center of the institution," Guskin said. What is needed, Gusktn said, is more faculty-student interaction "in informal settings which uniquely facilitates student growth and development and which is uniquely the faculty's to give." Guskin said too many freshmen and sophomores are "invisible students" to faculty, because most are undecided on a major and therefore don't have the "special kind of faculty advisement availa.tlLe to upperclass students who have settled into a major and established personal reIatronsbtps with their professors" through research projects, internships or activity in academic clubs which "involve considerable numbers of our juniors and seniors in the intellectual life of the university. " Guskin cited models at other universities as well as certain Parkside programs which involve facuIty and students in activities in which "the faculty member is respected but is also very much an accessible human being." The key to all such successful programs, Guskin maintained, "is the relationship between the faculty member and the student which occurs ... outside the classroom through advising and intellectual interaction that continues the teaching process." Would Parkside students respond to such efforts? "The fact thaLsome would not is far less important than the fact that we know (from upperclass student examples) that a good number would be interested," Guskin said. III do know that if we are serious about (our) responsibility ...all of us together must try harder and be more creative in our efforts to integrate our students into the intellectual life of the university, into the life of the mind. . "And 1 do know that increased involvement of faculty with students 15 the key to creating such an environment at UW-Parkside" Guskin concluded. ' .

Archives receives local resources Several new resources for genealogists and local historians have been acquired by the Parkside Archives and Area Research Center (ARC). Nicholas C. Burckel, associate di· rector of the UW Parkside LibraryLearning Center which houses the archives. said the ARC, which has a significant collection of census rna· terial, now has microfilm copies of the complete federal census of Wisconsin from 1850 to 1880. Burckel said local residents now can get the census information from THE FOOD CO-OP presents: rcO~m=n=i=F~u~to~n~s - I Futons allow your body it's freedom!

The ARC currently is seeking volunteers to help index the 1880 census. Interested persons should call 553-2411 or visit the ARC, which is located in the basement of the Library-Learning Center and is open to the puhlic Irom 7 :45 a.m. to 4 :30 p.m. Monday through Friday. The ARC also has acquired the death records of Racine and Kenosha counties from 1852 to 1907 and a microfiche index to death records throughout the state for the 19th century. Burckel said, nowever, that re-- cord-keeping during that period was sometimes incomplete. He said birth and marriage records of the two counties for those years also might be obtaLled by the ARC from Mormon dl'.:rch representatives who are in Wisconsin filming records for the Genealogical Society 01 Ut3h. Burch! said many lccal residents can trac ....their ancestries in the area to a period prior to Wisconsin's 1848 slatehood. For those residents the ARC has acquired microfilm copies from the National Archives of the porlion of the 1820 and 1830 Michigan censuses that included what today is Wisconsin. The ARC also has acquired the 1910 fed~ral census of Wisconsin, but using that census is difficult because names are listed in accordance with political units-counties townships, cities and wards, Burck: el said. "While it is more time-consuming to conduct research using the 1910 census, it is possible with a little diligence to locate needed information by r~lying on other resources at the A.RC such as early ward maps, city directories and lax rolls." Burckel said. RANGER lem ..... 8 1M3 ,. uw-P War garners staff Gen Con b) Karen 'oNood 'rhej' are the toilers, the behindthe-scene workers. the back-bone of the enure Ceo Con convention. Without them. the entire show would eertamly come to a screechInR hall They are the Parks Ide Assoctaucn of \\argamers (PAW). Wh\' do thev vonlunteer to help H~'Jr alter year for Gen Con? The answers range from practical rworkers earn gift eeruhcates after work109 a rertam number of hours) to masochtsuc l"lt's Iun!"]. The facts. however reamm Year after year these people average up to 18 hours per day setung up and taking down tables and chairs, finding lost people and belongings. and actmg as tralhc cops and mtormauon booths, Who these people are, and why some of them subject themselves to four or more days of overwork. no sleep and excess caffeine is a rnystery to everyone. Everyone that is, except fellow workers. Rick Gorton, head 01 Parkstde's volunteer e!lort, seemed very pleased with uus 'fear's convention. "It \\'"35 very Quiet this year," remarked Gorton. Reasons for this year's smooth eonvenuon were varied. Acrorrhng to Gorton, possi ble reasons included that conventioners were better behaved or there were fewer people this year, or they're less irate because the judges have been showing up." (Some game judges in the past became too involved In their personal gaming and forgot about the games that they were supposed to be judging.) Gorton estimated that there were between 40-50 people (including members of PAW. their friends and relatives) who volunteered to help during the convention. Of these. there were a handful of diehard individuals who stayed on campus the entire stretch of the convention, snatching a few hours of sleep whenever they could. PAW has traditionally had a bad reputation with other student organizations on campus" To some students, visual i~es of crazed medieval idiots spring to mind when a "wargamer" is mentioned. The Wargamers are a little puzzled as to how this image got started. Some blame the bad publicity on a lew scattered people across the nation who claim that wargaming is a form of demon worship. The PAW members feel that they are. on the whole, normally adjusted fun-loving college students with at least two common traits. One, they enjoy their games, and two, they truly dislike the idea 01 war. Some feel that they've learned to dislike war even more now that they can conceptualize the horrors and death of war a little more realisticaly. The PAW is in lact trying to change their image, but that is a slow and somewhat painful process. _ Said one PAW member, "Hell, we're not weird ...The weirdest guy n the whole dud is him," gesturing to a bearded comrade, "and aU he does is prove mathematical proofs for fun!" Continued from page 11 graphics for garners. "I lind Gen Con the best lor us," she said, '" don't know why," In addition there were fantasy art contests, seminars in all aspects of game playing, miniatures contests, computer games and entertainment. Although there were some complaints about the convention getting too big, too commercial and the games too unrealistic, in general most people were satisfied with the convention.

Now that may seem obvioUs enough but it seems " lot of people think it stands for Popeba Student Government. Ican see how this would be an easy mistake to make. And you are forgiven if, indeed, you made it. For it seems an awful lot of PSGA officers are making the very same mistake. Again, for the sake of those who do not know, Phil Pogreba, (hereafter referred to as "Big Daddy" is the President of PSGA (hereafter referred to as the most useful invention since the electric spaghetti fork). Well, you ask, what has all this got to do with last swnmer? I'm glad you asked. You see, PSGA is suffering from what can be termed as identity crisis; if the situation doesn't change soon, it won't have one. Idenlity, that is. Since the end of the spring semester, and all through the summer, there has been a steady stream of PSGA senators resigning. When asked ahoutthe recent shortage of senators an inside source replied; "I'm not exactly sure how m'any (senators) are left, but it isn't a hell of a lot. "They just seem to be quitting faster than we can get people to replace them," he added. Speculation is rampant as the cause of these defections. One theory is that, like most good politicians, the senators simply jumped on the bandwagon started by Jeanne "Spunker" Phillips and Ingrid "Garanimal" Petrikat. A second theory is, however, gaining widespread sup· port It contends that the split in PSGA was caused by nothing more than a personality conflict between the president and the senate. On closer examination though, this theory fails as there can be no possible can: flict between the two parties as niether has any personality to begin with. ~ts on the remaining lifespan of PSGA are now bemg taken.

ThesWl of yet anoIber fun-ftlled semester'sworth of sIo& and &rind as once again PartsitIe gears up to try to solve the questions of the universe. But before Igel back to the real meal of the article, I'd jusllike to take the opportunity here to welcome all you freshmen types 10 the 01' campus. I assume you all had a reasonably decadenl summer. I know I did. For those of you who are (God lorbid) new here, this, \be object you now see before you, is the ~, Ihe newspaper that doesn't care about pine--tar or Chad, but goes after the real meal. Like, "Does God exist, and if so, will a 26-pack of Chicken McNuggets be enough for him?" And this is "So It Goes:' the hard hilling story of a Country boy's rise 10 lame and fortune in a world he never made. Sort of like Howard the Duck, really. In this column I attempt 10 satirize those I deem worthy of the honor. Just hang on as I go along. I think you'lI gel the idea. So much for introductions. *** It is indeed a fine feeling to be back at the good old UWP (pronounced. I believe, "Youwp"). On the olher hand, I'd rather pilot a South Korean 747 over Russia than go through Iasl summer again. I remember a time not too long ago when swnmers were fun. Bul not this year. Nope. I had to be a jerk and take summer (arghhhh) school. Dreadlul concept. Evil. Eigbt weeks worth of two--hour lessons is enough to drive any man insane. I suppose one brighl spol was this course in how-toscrew-up-your-mind, sorry, I mean Psychology. Taught by the bonorable Doc. Beach, I soon learned thai: I) The world is full 01 weirdos, and 2) I am one of Ibem. So if paran~ia is your "thing," General Psychology is a must. Take It at a theater near you, see it with somebody you love. *** And last, but hardly least, it's "urgenl plea from desperate editor" time. Yes, that time of the year when we seniors and juniors get down on our knees to beg all you freshmen who are even semi-literate to come on down to the Ranger office. Talk to us! We need writers, we need artists, we need photographers. Hell, we even need people to sell advertising (and best of all ... you get money for thaI') And we don't even bite. *** Quite a bit has been going on here this last summer. The RaDger bas taken on a new look as well as new staff. And, somewhere along the line, Ken Meyer (who 15 a good and decent man) made me Feature Editor. *** Another developmenl on campus took place within the sacred walls 01 PSGA.

Sports shots Continued from page "24 run trot, Billy signaled to catcher Rick Cerone to retrieve the bat. Cerone had to grab the bat from the Kansas City batboy. Then, while the umpires were in conference, Royals' pitcher Gaylord Perry snuck out to the home plate area and tried -to get the bat, but he was spotted just in time by the Yankees. The completion of the game on Aug. 18 was an anti-climax to the greatest degree. After New York pitcher George Frazier perfonned the appeal plays, he struck out Royals batter Hal McRae for the third out of the top of the ninth. 'Then Dan Quisenberry retired the Yankees 1-2-3-fora save, and "that game" was history. Finally, one of the...funnier occurrences of the summer was the adventure of one Arthur Lee Trotter, who claimed that he was Marv Fleming and Bill Russell. He said his step-parents told him he was Fleming, and earlier had told him he was Russell. Why would he argue with the? When asked about his lack of height, (the real Russell is 6-11; Trotter is 6-4), he said he had 10 inches of bone removed from his legs .~o. ~eequid fit into his Mercedes.

The United States Football League ftnished its first season with an exciting cbampionship game (tbe Micblgan Panthers defeated the P!lJladelpbia Stars 24-22) and the promise of another year and four new learns. The Brewers sank 10 the depths 01 tJK, American League East on June 23, then began their rise back to the top They went 33-13 from June 23 until Aug 10. when they regamed the top spot. The hitting of Cecil Cooper and Ted Simmons was a major faclor "Coop" bad probably tJK, best month of his career, avengmg better than one RBI per game, and raising bis borne run lotaI to 24 He W1lS also player 01 the month for Jaly. Si-..s hasn'l heeD quite as spectacular, but is quietly baving his best season as a Brewer, balting around the .315 mark. Great pitching has also contributed to the Brewer cause. Moose Haas has been spectacular during the rise. He won eighl straight games during July and into August. Jim Slaton set a club record for victories by a reliever; Tim Candiotti is 3-0 since joining the Brewers from the minors; Chuck Porter bas gone 6-1 after an ()..4 start; and, of course, Peter 'Bigfoot' Ladd bas been tbe stopper out of the bullpen, witb 16 saves to his credit, most of them in the past few months. The Milwaukee Bucks were caught by surprise wben Dave Cowens asked to be released from bis contract That same day, reserve cenler Harvey Catchings signed an offer sheet wilb the Chicago Bulls. The Bucks later matched the otter, so Catchings will still be in Milwaukee. Now, I've come to the part of the column that I've been waiting for. As usual, the New York Yankess attract media attention like borse manure attracts flies. Most of the lime, attention is focused on the problems and negative aspects of the Yankee organization. This Summer bas been no dillerent Everybody knows about the Aug. 4 Dave Winfield/dead seagull incident. In early August, Billy Martin was snspended for two games be-- cause of an Incident in a July 31 game in Chicago, In tbat game, Marlin called. umpire Dale Ford a "stone liar." None of the above, however, can overshadow tbe July 24 game between the Yankees and the Kansas City Royals, the infamous (at least for tbe Yankees) 'pine tar' game. In tbat game, as you probably know, a borne run byGeorge Brett of the Royals was nullified when it was ruled tbat Brelt bad too mucb pine tar on the bat, erasing a 5-4 Royals lead and giving the Victory to the Yankees, 4-3. The decision of the umpires was later overruled by American League Presidenl Lee McPhail, .much to Ihe chagrin of Yankee owner George Sleinbrenner and the rest of the team. Tbe game was completed on August 18. Before tbe first pitch was thrown in the bottom. of the ninth inning, the Yankees appealed at both first and second bases, contending Brett missed the bases, to no avail. When Billy came out to speak to tbe umpires, tbe bead of lhe umpiring crew (which was a dif· Ierent crew than on July 24) presented Billy with a signed and notariZed affidavit stating that Brett had touched all tbe bases. The situation during the lime the umpires were ruling on July 24 was filled with intrigue worthy of a spy movie.
