Advising changes
recommended
by Jennie Tunkieicz
News Editor
The Coordinating Council on
General Education (CCGE) approved
the proposal to recommend to
the Administrative Council that an
Academic Assistance Center be established.
\
The entire proposal contains
three documents: a description and
a statement of the function of the
Academic Assistance Center, a description
of how such an advising
system would be implemented in
conjunction with the proposed new
admissions policy, and a proposed
policy for the UWP Faculty Senate.
The whole of the document must
be approved by the Academic Policies
Committee (APC), and the last
document must be approved by the
Administrative Council and
adopted by the Faculty Senate before
the Academic Assistance Center
can be implemented and become
operational.
The purpose of an Academic Assistance
Center is primarily to serve
as a centralized location where students
who have an undeclared
major or area of interest can go to
be advised by trained volunteer faculty
members. After the student
has declared a major or area of interest,
he/she would be assigned to
an advisor in the respective department,
which does not differ from
the current Parkside advising system.
The Center would also provide
support to those volunteer faculty
members, as well as provide continuous
orientations to keep them
aware of departmental changes and
university requirements.
Arthur Dudycha, Chariman of
the CCGE Advising Subcommittee,
said, "Although this isn't the ideal
plan, it is certainly a step in the
right direction." Dudycha said that
a "tremendous number of hours"
have gone nto developing the policy
which has been in the works since
September. Professors David Beach

Union 207 f rom 1-2 p'.m.
Corporate sponsorship
committee established
A committee has been established
to help determine the
status of individual events that
require corporate sponsorship.
The issue of corporate sponsorship
reached its pinnacle
when administrators said that
certain sponsorships — specifically
those by beer companies —
might be turned down in the future.
PSGA President Jeanne
Buenker-Phillips and Vice President
Mike Scoon met with Assistant
Chancellor Carla Stoffle
last week to discuss the issue
and set up the committee that
will formulate guidelines concerning
corporate sponsorship.
The three-member committee
will be comprised of Coordinator
of Student Activities Buddy
Couvion and Executive Committee
members of SOC (Student
Organization Council) and PAB
(Parkside Activities Board).
The committee will submit its
recommended guidelines within
a month to the PSGA Senate
and Chancellor Alan Guskin for
approval. The actions of the
standing committee, which will
have the same make-up as the
formulating committee, will be
forwarded to the Chancellor or
his designee, said Scoon.

Alcohol survey
The Union administration is considering changing policies concerning
alcoholic beverages on campus, because when the new drinking age
effect takes July 1, many students at Parkside will be under the age to
consume alcohol.
No definite plans have been agreed upon as yet, and the Union administration
is taking student input on what would be the best solution
to the upcoming problem. The Parkside Union Advisory Board will
also be discussing the issue next week.
The tentative plan is to discontinue the serving of pitchers of beer,
20 ounce beers and carafes of wine in an attempt to keep people from
"sharing" alcohol with underage drinkers. Other plans include limiting
each patron to only one alcoholic drink purchased each trip the bar,
and for the bartenders to ID patrons more regularly.
In order to measure student reaction to these proposed policies,
Ranger is conducting the following survey. The three questions deal
specifically with the discontinuation of the large-size alcoholic beverages.
There is also space available for any ideas, suggestions or comments
that you might have.
Now is the time that students can have some input. If you don't do it
now, don't complain later.
• •••••••'••
1. Do you agree that the large containers of alcohol should be discontinued
and only 12 ounce beers and single glasses of wine should be
sold?

Letters to the Editor
Psych, student agrees
To the Editor: .
I agree 100 pe rcent with "name
withheld" over the issue of the Psychology
260 class. I must also add
that he wasn't as angry as I!
Mr. Pavalko has no empathy
over this matter, whatsoever. I sat
through all of t hose weeks in a class
where attendance was mandatoryas
well as our tuition payment. I
bought the required books, I read
the required material. I met every
requirement of this class-I even
waited an hour to hear that there
was no final.
My gripe with you, Mr. Pavalko,
is that you c an't work out a basic
final for us students who study extensively
for our finals.
We need action.

Ranger appreciated
To the Editor
I would like to commend you on
your efforts to make the Ranger
the best paper in the UW System. I
think that John Kovalic is one of
the best feature editors. I think that
students should write more letter
to show everyone that other things
can help. I really enjoy the classisection.
Rick Luehr's "psychoible"
article is very funny and
entertaining! The whole staff does
a terrific job at what they do.
I am looking for ward to writing
more letters in the future to tell
you what I like and dislike. I'm also
going to continue to write more
classifieds during the remainder of
this semester.
Ken Meyer, I think that you're
one of the best editors that the
Ranger has ever had! I just wish
that there would be a lot more
music and movie reviews. So keep
up the good wo rk! U. W. Pa rkside

CORRECTION
Julian Brown was incorrectly
identified as a member of the
Gospel Truth Crusaders in last
week's front page picture.
Brown, a drama major at Parkside,
spoke at the Martin Luther
King, Jr. Commemorative prorgram
on January 16.
Times sure are changing
Times-they are a'changing, even at ol' Parkside.
When I first attended this prairie university in the
fall of 1979, the apathy ran rampant but so did the fun
for those few students who got involved. Now, the
apathy runs rampant but the few involved students
don't have nearly as much fun. Let me explain...
Then, as now, there are not 50 eve nts happening at
the same time to choose from in order to find some
fun. But in those days students who wanted to could
easily find something to have fun with.
Take for example the men's basketball games. In
those days the team had its infamous "Chicago connection"
that made the program look as respectable as a
streetwalker standing under a red light. But we didn't
care. Our team kicked ass as well as the best of them.
That's why the home games had a pep band, a group
known as the Rambunctious Ranger Rowdies (mostly
Ranger staff members) and a regular following from
the major student organization members.
While these glory days of fan participation are long
gone, one reminder is still with us-the Geritol Dixieland
band that plays in Union Square after the games.
It's a good band...the first time, the fifth time, the
eighth time and the thirteenth time.
Speaking of Union Square, let's bring up the Winter
Carnival and the administrative policies concerning alcohol
on campus. If 1979 r epresented day, 1984 is far
worse than night. A t otal eclipse is more like it.
The first full-fledged Winter Carnival was in February
1980. (Ranger won that competition along with the
following year's, but has since fallen away, showing
that apathy hits everywhere.) In those days the Union
ran a special that wouldn't even be considered now —
a 32 ounce mug of beer. Pay $1.75 or so for the full
mug and get refills all Winter Carnival week for only
around a buck.
Now administrators want to get rid of pitchers and
20 ounce beers because of the impending doom caused
by Ken Meyer
by the 19 year old drinking age. Is nothing sacred anymore?
Winter Carnival has always been fun, especially
when Ranger was winning. The only major change now
is that the opening parade is running in the opposite direction-
leading away from the Union instead of ending
up there to drink 32 ounce mugs of beer.
The Winter Carnival parade also now disallows the
use of motorized vehicles. That seems to make sense,
however, remembering how the Ranger filled the Concourse
with exhaust fumes add noise pollution on our
way to victory ...and the Union for our 32 ounce mugs
of beer.
But everything must change sooner or later. Even
Ranger followed this depressing scenario. The days of
competition with other student organizations (be it
football, basketball or volleyball) are long gone. So are
the days of weekly migrating to the Union to socialize
and espouse life's meaningless moments. Back then we
tried to do it every day that ended with the letter "y."

YMCA
Study atmosphere promoted
by John Kovalic
Ranger Hall, the Racine YMCA
that doubles as Parkside's only dormitory
accommodation, has implemented
new policies geared toward
a new academic emphasis for students.
"We're trying to get more of a
study-type of atmosphere," said
Jose Yamat, a Ranger Hall Residence
Assistant. "Last semester
there were many low GPA's. It was
decided that it was a function of
the school to serve students' educational
needs foremost, and that's
what we're trying to do now."
One of the guidelines concerns
the "quiet hours" on the student
floors. Since the YMCA began operating
Ranger Hall, these hours
were designated to begin at 11
p.m., and earlier during finals.
"The new hours start at 9 every
night," said Yamat, "and we'll be
stricter on the enforcement of the
hours this semester as well. We
shouldn't hear any noise in the
halls after this time."
Students will be able to take advantage
of a study hall that has
been established from 9 p.m. to 1
a.m. An RA will be on duty there
for most of that time to "keep
things quiet," Yamat said.
Along with stricter enforcement
of these policies, the YMCA will
also be providing incentives to the
residents.
"The person with the most improved
GPA will get a reward, like
a sort of candy, really. Only the incentive
will either be $100 off your
next semester's rent or a gift certificate
for the same amount if the
person is leaving," said Yamat.
"It's a sort of goal for the students,"
he added.
A th ird policy change is to make
the RAs themselves more noticeable.
The RA on duty will spend
two hours every night at the front
desk when many of the residents
will be returning from Parkside.
"We want people to see the RAs as
soon as they get in," said Yamat.
Also the RAs want people to
come to them more often, without
going to the YMCA a dministration
right away.
"I suppose it's just a need of the
RAs to feel more independent,"
commented Yamat, "and to take
on more of the responsibility themselves."
The RAs will not hold mandatory
meetings once a week to discuss
problems and ideas.
"Overall, we want to improve
communications and relationships,"
said Yamat, "and make living
here more comfortable for
everyone."
Union gate closing changed
by Jill Whitney Nielsen
There will soon be a new policy
in effect at UW-P concerning the
gate between Molinaro and the
Union concourse. Although most of
the buildings stay open until midnight,
the Union building closes at
11 p.m. The change was made two
years ago due to a slack in business
after 11 p.m. in the Union Square
and Rec Center, causing some students
to be either locked in or out
of the rest of the building at
strange times.
Bill Niebuhr, Director of the
Union, explained that the gates are
locked at 11 pm. for security reasons.
There have been vandalism
and some break-ins in the past, including
a major one at the Union
Information desk.
As part of their nightly duties,
the Student Union supervisors lock
the gates, usually after the Union
Square has closed, although some
students have found the gate locked
much earlier. Niebuhr was apprised
of this problem and stated, "That's
one thing we can do something
about." He further added that after
the Square and the Rec Center
close, the students have no real reason
to be in the building.
, "If we wanted to keep the gates
open past 11 (for the convenience
of those students who don't want to
wait outside,) it would cost between
$750 and $1200 to keep an
employee over," said Niebuhr.
That money would come from
segretated fees.
would come from segretated fees.
After much discussion between
Niebuhr and Mike Menzhuber, Rec
Center manager, a compromise was
reached. It was decided that Union
supervisors will wait until all students
leave the Union Square and
Rec Center before locking the
gates. It was also suggested that the
duty of locking the gate be made
the last on the supervisor's list.
This compromise should rectify
most of the problems students have
encountered. The only other problem
would be with student organizations
in either building who
choose to work late. This will be
rectified by sending memos out to
the individual organizations informing
them of the new policy.
International Studies
major developed
How do foreign countries view
America's increasingly tough military
posture?
Are the world's nations moving
toward a single, international economy?
Why is it important for persons
of various countries to be aware of
fundamental cultural differences
that might influence, and seriously
impede, cross-cultural communication?
Those are the kinds of questions
being probed in the newly organized
International Studies major at
Parkside. -
Authorized three years ago by
the UW System Board of Regents,
the program has been expanded,
both academically and in terms of
efforts to bring the examination of
internationally important topics to
residents of Kenosha and Racine.
The international studies major
is being offered at UW-Parkside
with four areas of specialization:
European civilization, developing
nations, international relations and
world cultures.
Although only a small number of
students have officially declared international
studies as their major,
the program is the source of increasing
interest by business majors
and other interested in fortifying
their studies with a solid knowledge
of world affairs.
John Harbeson, program coordinator
and Parkside political science
professor, said efforts are
underway in cooperation with local
school systems to promote the
study of international topics in local
primary and secondary schools.
Overseas study programs for
Parkside students currently are
being explored, and additional
"outreach" projects including community
presentations by faculty and
workshops on matters of international
concern are being planned.
"It's a multi-disciplinary effort,"
Harbeson said. "And that's how it
should be. We've got 45 faculty
members representing the humanities,
business, science, the social
and behavioral sciences and the
arts participating in the program.
There's a wealth of expertise on
this campus that can be applied to
international studies and we're
harvesting in it."
A survey currently is being conducted
among Parkside faculty and
staff-many of whom have lived and
worked abroad-to determine professional
and personal backgrounds
that could contribute to the study
of world affairs.
Harbeson said the increasing
inter-dependence of nations make
an international studies program
more important than ever.
"Also, however, from a career
standpoint, a grasp of international
issues is extremely important," he
said. "It's hard to think of a career
today that doesn't have some kind
of an international connection."
For more information on the
program call Harbeson at 553-2612.

Computer back on line
by Pat Zirkelbach
It was the "first problem for a
length of time." That was a brief
description of the situation last
week at the Computer Center by
the Center's Director, William Misamore.
The main computer, a Digital
Equipment Corporation PDP-
11/70, stopped working when a disc
drive made by the System Industries
failed late Sunday night. The
problem was discovered Monday
morning when the Computer Center
started for the semester.
A System Industry repair man
was called in from Madison who
worked on the problem to no avail.
Tuesday, more parts were ordered
from Chicago but those also didn't
help. Tuesday night, Tom Leih, Systems
Programmer at the Computer
Center, called a System Industry
manager in California for help.
Wednesday morning more SI repairmen
came in and started loading
a diagnostic program onto a
back-up tape drive, which also
broke down. Since the tape drive
was not made by System Industry,
another repairman had to be called
in from Chicago. After he assessed
the problem, more parts were ordered
from Milwaukee.
Again System Industry's program
was loaded and once again the tape
drive failed. The DEC repairman
ordered parts from California and
by Thursday the tape drive was
running, allowing the other repairmen
to begin on the original problem.
Friday morning the drive failed
again and System Industry was
called once more. Finally the drive
was repaired and as of Monday it
was running and available for normal
use.
"The PDP-11 is up 98 percent of
the time and is quite reliable," stated
Misamore. "The last time anything
of these proportions happened^
it only lasted for three days."
Advising
continued from page 1
and Michael Bassis played key roles
in developing this policy.
Dudycha feels that the Academic
Assistance Center, if approved,
could be in operation by the fall
semester. "The Center needs to be
in operation in the fall if the plan to
implement the new admissions
policy the following year is approved.
This way the wrinkles and kinks
can be smoothed out," said Dudycha.
If t he proposed admissions policy
is approved, those students who
would be placed under Conditional
Admissions would be advised by
Educational Services and not the
Academic Assistance Center until
they are moved to a Standard Admissions
category.
"The goal of the university is the
retention of students. Hopefully
this (the implementation of the
Academic Assistance Center) will
do a better job of directing students,
which will keep thefii from
feeling lost in the cracks," added
Dudycha.

Students unhappy with "final" options
by Bob Kiesling
Students in Dan Poulson's Psychology
of Personality class, after
waiting for more than an hour for
their professor to show up for the
final last semester, found out they
weren't going t o have a final.
Poulson, a psychology department
lecturer who was teaching the
class, had attempted to take his
own life, apparently the night before.
One of the students finally went
to the psychology department and
told the department that Poulson
was not there.
The class was visited by Ronald
Pavalko, chairman of the Behavioral
Sciences Division, and David
Beach, the psychology department's
program coordinator, who
said they spoke with the students to
discuss the options.
"We were even more confused
than the students," said Beach.
"We tried to reach Dr. Poulson. We
didn't know what was happening."
Finally, Beach and Pavalko decided
that the students would be offered
four options: to take the midterm
grade as the grade for the
course; to receive credit for the
course with no grade, to retake the
course without charge, or drop the
course.
Beach said the department's idea
"was to try to offer to the students
every viable alternative we could
think of within the constraints we
had."
Some of the students, however,
disagree. Several have said that the
options and said they had special
requirements that made all options
unacceptable.
"Granted, this is a unique situation,"
said John Allen, one of the
students.
"It looks like they just didn't
want to deal with it," he said. "Administratively,
it all looks neat and
fine."
He said that one of the possible
options mentioned by Beach, to retake
the exam at a different time,
"would have been fine." Beach and
Pavalko had mentioned that as a
possible option to the class.
However, Beach said, at that
time, to the best of the department's
knowledge, Poulson did not
prepare a final. It would have been
unfair to the student, he said, because
the department does not
know, specifically, which material
Poulson had covered.
Vet stress subject of study
The Veterans Administration has
announced plans to conduct a
major study of the extent of posttraumatic
stress disorder and other
readjustment problems among
Vietnam-era veterans. VA Administration
Harry N. Walters said the
mdepth study will be the first of its
kind to examine the post-war readjustment
problems of Vietnam-era
veterans-male and female-on a nation-
wide basis.
VA issued a request for proposal
for the study from private contractors
on January 20. Mandated by
Congress under Public Law 98-160,
the study will include both veterans
who served in the Vietnam theater
and those who did not, as well as a
comparison group of n on-veterans.
The survey will focus on veterans
who now have or have had readjustment
problems and those who
made the transition to civilian life
with little or no difficulty. It will be
designated to provide data on the
psychological and social aspects of
Vietnam veterans' lives, with particular
attention to female veterans
and service-connected veterans.
The VA als o intends the study to
develop data regarding post-war
psychological proble ms among veterans
from minority groups, veterans
with physical disabilities, veterans
with substance-abuse problems
and incarcerated veterans.
VA is required to submit to Congress
a report on the findings of the
study by October 1, 1986. Findings
should assist VA in planning fo r the
future needs of Vietnam-era veterans
in the area of readjustment
counseling. Data should also promote
an increased understanding of
the nature of post-traumatic stress
disorder.
Interested parties may obtain a
copy of the request for proposal by
submitting a written request to
Mark B. Franklin, Contracting Officer,
VA Procurement Service
(93A), Office of Procurement and
Supply, 810 Vermont Avenue N.W.,

solicitation must be received at the
above address no later than April
19. A pre-bid conference for prospective
bidders will be held at 9
a.m. on February 21 in VA Central
Office, Room 119. ' CHAMP cited exemplary
Parkside's CHAMP program , designed
to encourage and motivate
minority high school youth to prepare
for post-secondary education
has been cited as exemplary by the
National Commission on Excellence
in Education.
The citation is the result of a national
study of 3,30 0 post-secondary
institutions by the commission
which analyzed, among other areas,
cooperative programs between high
schools and universities that facilitate
the transition of s tudents from
secondary to post-secondary education.
An article about the study that
included a description of Par kside's
CHAMP program appeared in the
December issue of the American
Association for Higher Education
(AAHE) Bulletin magazine.
Parkside was one of 17 U.S. universities,
colleges, community colleges
and technical schools cited in
the AAHE re port.
About 600 stud ents currently are
enrolled in CHAMP (which stands
for Creating Higher Aspirations and
Motivations Program), which was
established in 1979. The four-year
program consists of stu dents in 9th
through 12th grades who attend sixweek
summer sessions at Parkside
which include educational workshops,
career and personal counseling,
and field trips. Close contact is
maintained with the CHAMP students,
their parents and counselors
during the regular school year.
Teachers and counselors in Racine
and Kenosha schools identify
participating students who have potential
for academic success. About
300 8th g raders from the two communities
have been attending twoday
CHAMP orientation sessions at
Parkside the last two weeks. About
half of these are expected to join
the program as 9th graders next
fall.
Pizza winner
Student John Enderle won himself
a pizza last week by b eing the
first person to notice an error in
the Housing Office poster distributed
throughout the campus.
The Housing office sponsored the
contest and Heritage Food Service
donated the pizza.
Enderle reported the misspelling
of the word "roommates" within
an hour of the distribution of the
Ranger announcing the contest.
"I really feel strongly that they
should try to be generous," said another
student who asked not to be
named because he/she is seeking
an appeal. The student said that
Pavalko "flat-out told me his hands
were tied."
"His statement to me was an untruth,"
the student said, "because
he and Beach sat down and decided
it. That's my main beef, how
they've offered the options to the
students."
Beach said, however, that the department
was trying to strike a balance
between solving the problems
as quickly as possible and keeping
the students' interests in mind.
Beach commented that the finals
week, coming as it does right before
Christmas, is one of the busiest
times of the year, and the department
was shorthanded, which is
why they hired Poulson as a lecturer.
"He had always been very dependable,"
said Beach of Poulson,
who has taught other classes for the
department. Because of a shortage
of psychology professors, he said,
Poulson had been rehired to teach
the course and had not been closely
monitored.
"There were a lot of opti ons that
could not stand up to reality,"
Beach said. "We felt it was absolutely
imperative that we got to
them within that time frame so
that we could do as much for them
as we could."
The two students interviewed
said they would take the midterm
grade as the grade for the course.
Allen said he was planning on attending
professional school and had
to ship transcripts out this semester.
The other said that Poulson
had told him he got a B-plus on the
midterm, but the grade the department
offered him was a B. The student
said that out of a class of 82
students, only eight students got
A's.
Beach said that Poulson had recorded
the midterm scores on a
computer printout and had marked
the letter grades on the same sheet.
He said that clerical errors may
have occurred, which may account
for the student's grade difference.
"I really don't fault Mr. Poulson,"
Allen said. "My general impression
is that he really didn't play
a part in this."
He said, however, that he was
bothered by the lack of consideration
for the student's time in class.
"You're not getting any credit
for those last eight weeks," he said.
"It's just out the window."

Joffrey H consists of the most
talented young dancers from the acclaimed
Joffrey Company, which
has come to define ballet excellence
and beauty in the U. S. The
12-member Joffrey II ensemble,
which the New York Times called
"the best small classic ballet company
in the country," is both an intense,
competitive training ground
and a showcase for Joffrey stars of
tomorrow.
Selections to be performed by
the dancers to taped music are:
"Pas Des Deeses,"
choreographed by Robert Joffrey
and performed to music by John
Field. The work was inspired by a
Romantic lithograph of 1846 by the
artist Bouvier, and at the ballet's
beginning, the dancers assume a
pose from that famous work of art.
Each subsequent variation demonstrates
qualities made famous by a
quartet of great 19th century dancers,
Lucile Grahn, Fanny Cerrito,
Marie Taglioni and Arthur St.
Leon.
"Beginnings,"" choreographed
by Choo San Goh and performed
to "Serenade for Strings, Op. 12,"
by composer Lennow Berkeley,
premiered by Joffrey II this summer.
"The 'Mary' Chapter...'"
choreographed by Catherine Hills
and performed to music by the late
singer-songwriter Jim Croce, including
the works "I'll Have to Say
I Love You In a Song," "Salon and
Saloon," "Dreaming Again" and
"These Dreams."
" I n Kazmidi t y , "
choreographed by Ann Marie De
Angelo and performed to selections
from "Sylvia," by Leo Delibes. The
fantasy work tells the story of a
feminist kingdom inhabited by the
souls of unfulfilled ballerinas who
capture mortal young men and
transport them to "Kazmidity,"
where "life is everlasting and the
freedom of d ance prevails."
The Joffrey II prepares its young
performers to be soloists for the
Joffrey Ballet as well as other professional
dance companies.
Founded in 1969, the Company also
serves as a showcase for emerging
choreographers, composers and
lighting and costume designers as
well as training-arts administrators
and production personnel.

PAB relocates by Walter Hermann
Parkside Activities Board (PAB)
has moved its office from Union
202 to a new location behind the
Union Information desk in the old
poster shop.
PAB made the move in order to
obtain more space for storage and
making signs. According to PAB
president Mark Scholzen and vicepresident
Keith Harmann, the old
office was like "a large closet." The
new office has three rooms: a
dressing room for visiting bands, an
office for Scholzen and Harmann
and a larger office for PAB committee
members.
Along with the move, Scholzen
and Harmann expect the number of
PAB members to grow from the
approximately 65 people now involved.
Scholzen an d Harmann feel
that the new office will encourage
people to feel less inhibited and
will allow for creativity to be stimulated.
PAB events for this semester include
the Joffrey H Dancers on
Monday, Jan. 30 a t 8 p.m. in the
Communication Arts Theater (tickets
are $3 for students and $5 fo r
general admission), and the continuing
film series, which will feature
such films as Hair, Trading
Places, Meatballs and many more.

primaries ard scheduled at
Parkside.
All Roundtables are free and
open to the public and begin at
noon on Mondays in Union Room

Alejandro Portes, internationally-
known sociolo gist, will speak at
Parkside on Friday, Jan. 27 at 1
p.m. in Molinaro 107. Professor
Portes, currently at the Johns Hopkins

"Latin American Class Structures."
His talk is free and open to the public.
Portes comes to Parkside under
the auspices of the Exxon Foundation
and Parkside's International
Studies Program. The Program,
continuing its series of s peakers on
international affairs, will also feature
talks on the destruction of the
population in Sri Lanka, on the arts
in the Soviet Union and two on
African politics and culture.
Portes, born in Cuba, received
his PhD from 1970 from UW-Madison.
He has taught at the University
of Illinois, the University of Texas
and Duke University and held numerous
fellowships including fellowships
from the Torquato di

to the company two weeks before
the information appears.
Four more systems from The
Campus Source, a company in East
Brunswick, New Jersey, will be
programmed on campus and will
present strictly campus information.
Two large panels will accompany
the revolving message: one
panel for a monthly events calendar
and one to display an ad for the advertiser
of the month. It hasn't
been determined where or when
the four new systems will be installed.
Both services are free to the
campus; therefore no student dollars
or tax dollars were involved in
obtaining the services, aside from
the cost of mounting the boards.
The companies providing the services
receive profits from the sale of
advertising segments that are
broadcast or displayed.
The advertising on the systems
will be low key and will exclude
such products as cigarettes or alcohol,
said Union Director Bill Niebuhr.
Eligibility to qualify for these
systems is based on the campus student
population. "These types of
systems have only recently been
made available to campuses of our
size...hundreds of other campuses
already have such systems," said
Niebuhr.
Niebuhr and Buddy Couvion,
Coordinator of Student Activities^,
initiated the request to obtain these
systems.
Niebuhr said that the decision to
get the message boards was largely
due to the positive responses that
the systems have generated on
other campuses.
"What we're trying to do with
these systems, in addition to the
Ranger, posters and fliers, is to increase
communication on campus
to let people know about things
that are happening," said Niebuhr.
The installation of these systems
was approved and authorized by
the UW-Parkside Outreach Committee,
chaired by Chancellor Alan
Guskin.

Law officers training program
developed by campus profs
A tra ining program for Wisconsin
law enforcement officers developed
by University Extension professors

S. Earl by UW-Extension officials.
The program, funded by a $13,-
000 grant from the Wisconsin State
Council of the Knights of Columbus,
helps law enforcement officers
recognize and deal with the developmentally
disabled, which includes
persons who are mentally retarded,
or have epilepsy, cerebral
palsy or autism.
The program is a training manual
consisting of audio tapes and written
materials that were produced
under the direction and supervison
of Professors Kim Baugrud, coordinator
of University Extension activities
at Parkside, and Samuel
Stellman, UW-Extension Criminal
Justice Institute, UW-Milwaukee.

The Knights of Columbus grant
was the 13th to Baugrud in the past
10 yean, totaling more than $30,000
to fund training programs in the
area of law enforcement and mental
retardation.
Baugrud's interest in the developmentally
disabled intensified following
his serving on a special legislative
committee on criminal justice
for the physically and developmentally
handicapped.
"It is absolutely essential that all
Wisconsin law enforcement officers
are able to recognize the developmentally
disabled, and to understand
that these people have some
particular problems when reacting
with law enforcement personnel,"
Baugrud said. "They may. have difficulty
understanding what is said
to them. When questioned, they
may lack standard identification,
such as a driver's license. Also,
they may display inappropriate behavior
because they can't read signs
or distinguish symbols."
The Milwaukee Police Department
has recognized the importance
of this problem (how to deal
effectively with the developmentally
disabled), and all their officers
have now gone through the manual,"
said Baugrud.
Persons taking the program also
become aware of the resources of
the Developmental Disabilities
Boards (Chapter 51) in each

Away from the Numbers
Costello's'Clock': Elvis is King
The best of 1983
by John Kovalic
Feature Editor
I woke up Thursday morning to
the strains of "Say, say, say" with
the horrible realization that somebody
had shot the wrong Beatle.
Something was terribly wrong with
the universe and it wasn't just the
question of Michael Jackson's gender.
The year of 1983 is , mercifuly,
over. "Thriller," five singles and
sixteen barf bags since its release,
is finally beginning to wear a bit
thin. Not that it's a bad album..or it
wasn't the first time I heard it. But
by about the 1,124,654th time one
of its releases came through my
radio I began reaching for the
Pepto-Bismol.
The year marked the return of
"The Establishment." The men in
the boardrooms of Polydor and
Warner churning out profit after
profit. Forget about the musical
aspect. Let's try to milk another
single off of Mikey.
But there were bright spots.
Some of the handful of groups that
did the unheard of — i.e. used a little
bit of musical integrity in the
production of new and varied albums
— actually made a little bit of
money on the side.
Say... you don't think it might be
profitable to actually be original, do
you? What an astounding thought.
Anyway, here are the high p oints
of the year. In my humble and in-
Ask Dr. Bill
credibly biased opinion, I now give
you the best of 1983's alternate
music.
••••••••••
Elvis Costello.
Punch the Clock...
in which bespectacled one proves
once again that Elvis is king. Literally
assaulting the listener with
more innovations than a week's
worth of Q FM, "Punch the Clock"
is a masterpiece, Costello's best
work recently, by far.
"Clock" is biting in its sarcasm,
unrelenting in its targeting of society's
sacred cows and dead on target
when it finds its mark. The depression
of last year's "Imperial Bedroom"
gives way to a more constructive
view of l ife than Elvis has
been willing t o admit to believe in
in a long time.
The addition of the TKO horn
section, late of Dexy's Midnight
Runners, has replaced the precise
production of "Bedroom" with a
real kick where it was needed most.
"Clock" is Costello's return to
power rock tempered with the soul
of his earlier "Get Happy." Easily
the best of the year, this is a great
album.
Dexy's Midnight Runners
Too-rye-aye
One of the first albums released
in 1983, "Too-rye-aye" was a welcome
return of the 'young soul rebels'
after two years' relative silence,
leaving their first album in
the dust as Kevin R owland got his
act together in more ways than one.
The group's lineup was the
umpteenth since the original members
did the big split in 1980.
Sometimes overbearing, Rowland's
pretentious stoic self-denial
was masked for much of the album.
This allowed a more positive, powerful
sound to emanate from the
Celtic soulbrothers' respective instruments
as the album turns into a
Beatle-esque affirmation of youth.
Off it came the year's best single,
"Come on, Eileen."
More than a faddish flirtation
with a soul/Celtic fusion, "Too-ryeaye"
is a powerful album that will
stay fresh for a long t ime to come.
U2
War
Right, I know I've been harping
on about U2 for the last year, but
come on, guys, this is great stuff.
One of the most promising albums
in a long time, "War" overshadows
"Boy" and "October" to
give us a view of life on Northern
Ireland's frontline. U2 are calling
for peace as their countrymen divide
up to fight amongst themselves.
The sound is crisp as the group
shifts gears throughout and produce
changing, challenging portraits of
life, from the strong beat of "New
Year's Day" to softer "Surrender".
Week at the Park
The quartet has Come a long
way and are one of the most exciting
groups on the scene at the moment.
REM
Murmur
Hailing from Georgia, REM has
here what is easily the best American
album of the year.
As X stands pretty much still trying
to give punk the kiss of life,
REM has a sound that is new and
original, tying strings of folk, punk-
/pop and blues in a collage of
sound that makes most albumoriented
rock look si ck.
Lead singer Mike Stripe lends
the vocals a mysterious quality with
a haunting tone that stays with you
long after the record is over.
"Radio Free Europe" leads the
album off on a tour de force which,
when aided by the rest of the
tracks, make "Murmur" one of th e
most compelling albums of the
year.
Mr. Fix-it Kramer' comes to campus
by Bill St ougaard
Oh me, oh my, what a time it
was! Few people could boast about
the exciting kind of semester break
I had, mainly because all but a few
had to have had a more exciting
one than I did.
So, in an effort to make this article
sound more interesting, I'm
going to lie through my cuspids.
Once again I had to rise to a challenge.
This time it was that most
disgusting and vile of l abors — yes,
painting the basement floor.
(Enough to send you screaming
into the night, huh?)
Well, anyway, being me and
everything, I took the bull by the
horns, took a deep breath and
bravely hid underneath my bed. An
awe-inspiring sight, indeed.
Finally I met my enemy (kicking
and screaming all the way), the
words of my father ringing in my
ears: "What man has done, Stougaard
can do," and "Get your butt
down there, you lazy litt le punk."
Now I was as ready as I would
ever be. Mustering up the miniscule
amount of courage at my disposal,
I tried to escape through the
basement window. I would have
made it, too, if I hadn't eaten so
much grub over the holidays. After
my folks pried me free and
threatened to make me eat John
Kovalic's gerbil "Chuck" unless I
got to it, I started to prepare the
floor for painting.
Hour after hour I scrubbed, rinsed
and swept. I definitely had an
idea how Prometheus felt being
chained to the mountain and having
birds make kibbles and bits out of
his liver. God, how I suffered,
never faltering for a moment lest I
get hit.
At last I was ready to paint.
Grasping my magi c roller,
"Roller," I proceeded to paint the
floor. For four days and nights I
painted.
An endless sea of grey acrylic
flowed from "Roller." I took
breaks only to eat my daily morsel
of Krafts cheese and macaroni (I
agree with the little girl on the
tube) and to watch the seven hours
of soaps t hat I had recently become
addicted to.
After a momentous final effort, I
completed the last brush stroke.
Lifting my enchanted roller to the
heavens, I cried in a tremendous
voice filled with power, "PHEW!"
My par ents, being alerted by my
victory gasp, came tumbling down
the stairs and gazed upon my work
with tear-filled eyes. My father said
in a trembling voice, "You dumb
putz! You were supposed to paint
the walls!"

Once Ober Easy
Overlooked movies: Cannes it be true?
by Dick Oberbruner
In the film industry, the new
year begins talk about the Academy
Awards, which movies of 1983 h ad
the best so and so.
A typical year at the cinema
starts out busy with a barrage of
holiday showings. Spring is slow.
Summer picks up with teenage
stimulators and darkened mutilators.
Fall is slow. And the year's
end begins the great money making
rush: hit the public when they
spend the most cash!
Winter is the time of year when
films containing big stars are favored
for accolades when the summer
season suffered from shock.
Of course, there will be films ignored-
those pieces of art overlooked
by the Academy, but only appreciated
by a handful of avid movie
goers. Such are these presented
below.
Mind you, these are only a cross
section of the many films squashed
by favoritism. If you are in favor of
these fine cinema-graphic attempts:
bravo!
"Tootslieg" a musical film about
a transvestite seamstress striving to
reach the top of Manhattan's garment
district. While designing his
own radical creations, he falls in
love with the alcoholic kingpin of
the district and cajoles him to accept
his fashion. Boy George stars.
"Tootslieg" is Yiddish for "fruitcake."
"Return O' The Jesuit" Set in
modern day Dublin, Northern Ireland,
a London priest returns to his
birthplace to aid in the fighting
against the Irish Republican Army,
who torments his old neighborhood.
This swashbuckling adventure includes
Catholic-Protestant street
battles, Jabba the Pope, and Irish
guerillas soon to be sold in stores.
Miles O'Keefe stars.
"Never Say 'Make My Day*
Again" Clint Eastwood is James
Bond, Agent 007. His vigilante tactics
get him busted, women and
busted women. He carries the law
in his Magnum and blows away
punks, drunks, psychos and a daily
dish of spaghetti at the corner deli.
He is partnered with a rhesus
monkey (played by Sondra Locke)
that retrieves his bullets after firing
them.
"Terms of Endurance" Moe,
Larry and Curly, the Three Stooges,
star in a three-hour epic that highlights
the changes in their on-camera
relationships.
How Curly matured under Moe's
spiteful guidance. How Larry comforted
Moe when Curly was replaced
by Shemp. How the trio's slapstick
was a metaphor for their sexual
frustration.
Lengthy films were meant to be
blockbusters.
"Smurf's Of A Kind" The good
looking He-Smurf gets the gorgeous,
twinkly-eyed She-Smurf
without even acting at all. Animation
works wonders.
Plenty of songs for the younger
kiddies. Plenty of teeth and posturing
for the older kiddies. You know
who stars.
"Never Cry Scarface" A lazy
Cuban refugee hears his name bellowed
out more than once over the
intercom at the grocery store where
he works. Unwilling to shave his
beard off (it hides knife marks), he
is fired by his boss.
"Scarface" plans revenge in his
garage apartment. He gathers a
gang of eleven-one for each aisle.
Fidel Castro stars.
"Gorky Cab" Mr. T is traded to
Moscow in exchange for nuclear
disarmament in Europe. He starts
his own taxi service (Red Cab) because
what else can he do when left
to his imagination?
He is officially titled "American

A stroll through Ostrovsky's 'Forest'
by Patricia Cumbie
How would you like to take a
walk through an enchanted forest?
The Milwaukee Repertory Theater
is staging a production of Alexander
Ostrovsky's "The Forest," a
forest not unlike one of Shakespeare's
mystical glades.
On a rural estate, located in central
Russia in about 1870, there
lives a wealthy and stingy landowner,
Raisa Pavlova.
Raisa is getting on in years and
must decide who to will her money
to. She could will it to her nephew
whom she hasn't seen for 15 years;
or she could give it to a young man,
Aleksei, living with her, whom
Raisa is in love with.
Faced with this dilemma, along
comes Grennady Demyanich, her
Theater
auditions
Wisconsin, Illinois and Iowa theater
producers will audition actors,
singers, dancers, designers, technicians
and managers at the Eighth
Annual Statewide Summer Theater
Auditions, Feb. 4 and 5 in Madison
at the Wisconsin Cent er.
The weekend program is sponsored
by the UW Exte nsin Unit of
Arts Department in cooperation
with the Wisconsin Theater Association.
In addition to the auditions program,
on Friday, Feb. 3 workshops
will be conducted by Wisconsin theater
producers and educators who
specialize in training actors and
technicians for employment.
Those planning to audition might
view the day as an opportunity to
"warm up" with professionals who
understand the process. Some of
the topics include: "Strenghtening
Your Audition," "Resume/Portfolio
Enhancement" and "The
Musical Audition."
Participants who plan to audition
the following day will have an opportunity
to try out prepared material
and receive immediate feedback
in "An Open Critique" session.
All workshop participants will
receive passes to observe any audition
series Saturday or Sunday.
Among th e 21 producers are The
Fireside Playhouse (Fort Atkinson),
The New American Theater
(Rockford IL), Northern Lights
Summer Playhouse (Tomahawk),
Peninsula Players (Fish Creek),
Friends Mime (Milwaukee), Theater
On The Bay (Marinette), Old
Creamer Theater (Garrison IA), the
Wisconsin Shakespeare Festival
(Platteville) and various colleges
and university theaters. Each will
be looking fo r a talent to fill a variety
of p ositions within their companies.
Registration fees are $7 for the
Workshop Day and $10 for the
Statewide Auditions. WTA offers
special discounts for members.
Registration forms are available
by writing the Statewide Summer
Theater Auditions, 610 Langdom
St., 724 Lowell Hall, Madison WI,
53706. Inquiries can be made by
calling Richard Klemm, 608/263-
6736.
long-lost ne phew.
Rosemary Prinz, a well-seasoned
actress, plays Raisa; she is humorous
as the old woman who carries
her fortune around with her in a
wooden box. Aleksei, played by
Laurence Ballard, is not above a little
"gold digging" to get ahead.
Grennady Demyanich is a wandering
tragic actor called "Tragikov."
He is the bane of his aunt's
existence once she finds out he is
an actor. The role is played by Daniel
Mooney, who exuded the right
pomposity his role requires. His
last role was Scrooge in the 1983
production of "A Christmas Carol".
Opposite Mooney is Peter Silbert,
who plays Tragikov's traveling
companion "Komediansky." Silbert
played Jack Sumner, the shellshocked
soldier in the last Rep play
"Splintered Wood," a role he played
with much intensity. He is a gifted
actor and his performance in
"The Forest" is very funny.
Other excellent performances
were wrought by Rose Pickering,
Ulita; and James Pickering, Karp,
who play aged servants of Raisas'.
Ulita spies in the woods for Raisa;
and Karp, the hunched-over lackey,
does her bidding. Karp's performance
was so great he almost stole
the show.
One unique feature in the play
was the set design. Tall, life-like
pine trees are dispersed upon the
stage. In the center is the semblance
of a living room, a rug and a
few chairs. All action literally takes
place in the forest.
"The Forest" is an excellent and
very funny production. Casting is
made up of character roles, all of
them played well. "The Forest" is
an evening of e xcellent theater and
well worth seeing.
Performances are at 8 p.m., except
Mondays, Jan. 20-Feb. 26 at
the Todd Wehr Theater. Tickets are
$4-$12. For reservations, call (414)
273-7121.
Matinees are on selected Wednesdays
or Sundays. A $1 discount
is available for students, senior citizens
and the unemployed.

Doughboy dies,
Snugglebear slain! Classified ads
PUBLIC
SHOCKED! by Nick Thome
In recent months a wave of fanatical
terrorism has been taking
place around the globe.
They have bombed sleeping Marines
in Beirut. They've bombed innocent
shoppers at Harrods.-
They've blown the windows out of
buildings in Washington. They've
kidnapped military personnel of
every age and rank. They've sent
out death squads. They've extorted
millions of dollars.
All th at is fine and well, but now
they've gone too far!
A new, diabolical form of terrorism
has emerged in the last week.
Yes, dear readers, I'm talking
about the trend towards corporate
character assassinations.
Those symbols we have all grown
to know and love are being killed.
The police have beefed up security
at the studios, but thus far, it's all
been for naught.
Remember the Pillsbury Doughboy?
A member of t he People's Organization
to Wipe Out Imperialistic
Rhetorical Symbols (POWIRS)
got him. While filming a future
commercial, Abdul Isurdosmellbad
ran his index finger through the
helpless doughboy. Abdul was
heard screaming, "Die you American
scumball. corporate puppet!
DIE!" as the* fatal finger did its
duty.
The Revolutional Order of Labor
to Lacerate Economic Representatives
(ROLLER) sent a man on a
clandestine mission last week. The
unknown assailant snuck onto the
sound stage during the filming of a
recent Banner commercial with a
bucket of water. That poor roll of
toilet paper was asking for another
take when the fatal flood came. His
last words were "Dry me quick,"
but it was too late. The soft touch
became the soft mush quicker than
you can say we will be right back.
The final victim in last week's
barrage of barbarianism was the
Snuggle bear.
The bear was abducted from his
New York penthouse apartment
and taken to the laundromat in the
Bronx.
N. Y. Police found the body of
Snuggle in the bottom of a Speed
Queen washer with a large economy-
size bottle of Downy and a
-note.
The note, from Stop Outrageous
Fascist Traitor Economic Entities
(SOFTEE), claimed responsibility.
The coroner reported the death was
caused by drowning. However, he
did not know that the corpse was

It will be managed by Duffy

Women lose Classic final

Snorts Shots
Sports in Wisconsin
by Robb Luehr
Welcome back to Sports Shots
everyone. I trust you had a fine
semester break, and hope you're
ready for another semester of
sports.
Many of you have been having
too much fun over break to notice
what has been happening in the
world of sports, So I'll get you
caught up.
First, you probably know about
Bart Starr losing his job (?) in
Green Bay. Well, guess what? Bart
has been hired by the Arizona Firebirds,
a would-be NFL expansion
team. He is director of operations,
head coach and general manager of
a (at present) non-existent team.
The NFL has said that it is not
ready for expansion, but the Firebirds
are in business anyway and
Bart's at the helm.
The Seattle Seahawks almost
pulled off the impossible in the
AFC playoffs. First, they got into
the playoffs as a wild card team.
They got by Denver and burned
Miami, but then they ran into a
mob known as the L. A. Raiders.
These men in black bullied their
way to a 30-14 win, using intimidation
(such as starting fights) and
Marcus Allen's 154 yards rushing.
While we're on the subject, have
some sympathy for the Rams and
the Steelers, who were subjected to
a couple of the worst drubbings in
recent playoff history (51-7 an d 38-
10, respectively). Have no sympathy
for the crybaby 49ers. They blamed
their loss on the officiating, particularly
on two calls made in the last
three minutes of the game that
helped the Redskins continue their
drive to their winning field goal,
spoiling a 49er comback.
The films were reviewed by NFL
officials, who said the calls were
justified. I saw the replays during
the game, and I thought they were
correct calls. So go ahead and cry,
Bill Walsh; it won't do you any
good.
••••••••••
Switching to basketball, our Milwaukee
Arena dwellers are not having
the seasons they were expected
to. Marquette has had a five-game
losing streak, the worst since 1966.
The Bucks lost four in a row a
week and a half ago. In the process
they lost their lead in the central
division to the Detroit Pistons.
They finally broke the streak by
beating the Knicks of New York.
This past Sunday, on national television,
they simply massacred the
Boston Celtics. Let's hope they're
back on track.
At least one Milwaukee team is
having a good year — the Admirals.
They have the best record in the International
Hockey League.
••••••*••*
The USFL scored their second
Heisman Trophy winner in the person
of Mike Rozier, who signed
with the Pittsburgh Maulers (great
name, huh?). In other USFL developments,
the Arizona Wranglers
(another great name) signed Steeler
quarterback Cliff Stoudt, and Walter
Payton was offered $2 million a
year for three years by the Chicago
Blitz.
Speaking of money, there is a
new millionaire in the baseball
world. Rich Gossage signed a fiveyear,
$5.5 million contract with the
San Diego Padres. It is truly a fowl
city now, with a Chicken and a
Goose in residence.

The Parkside women's basketball
tournament was last weekend and
the host team fared well. The lady
Rangers made it to the finals of the
eight-team tournament, but lost in
the final by three points to La-
Crosse.
On Friday, Parkside played its
first game of the tourney, against
Loras College. The game was a seesaw
affair, with the lead changing
hands frequently. Each team led by
as many as eight points, but the
score was tied in the last minute of
the game. With the score 49-49,
Debbie Hanson was fouled with 27
seconds left. She stepped to the line
and calmly made two free throws,
hitting nothing but the net on both
shots. She added another foul shot
in the last few seconds to make the
final score 52-49 for Parkside.
Robin Henschel led the Rangers
with 14 points, with Debbie Ambruso
and Hansen adding 10 points
each.
The Rangers advanced to the Saturday
semi-final, where their opponent
was Northern Michigan University.
Parkside got off to a fast
start and never trailed in the game.
The closest that Northern Michigan
could get was six points. The final
score was UW-P 70, NMU 60.
Coach Noreen Goggin commented
about the game: "We played
real well...it was a team effort."
Midge Schinderle led the way with
16 points, while Jean Jacobs added
13 and Deb Ambruso chipped in
with 10.
In the final on Sunday, Parkside
went up against a tough LaCrosse
team. Both teams played hard, and
the game was close all the way;
But in the end, the Indians prevailed
over the Rangers 71-68.
Goggin stated, "We played a
good game. The girls played their
hearts out, |)ut the other team
won."
The key to the game was the free
throw line, where LaCrosse had 29
attempts , but Parkside only had 5
attempts. Robin Henschel paced
Indoor track begins
The indoor track season has
begun. Two men on the track team
have qualified for the indoor nationals
that will be held in Kansas
City.
The two runners are: George
Kapheim, winner of the Turkey
Day Race in Kenosha, and cross
country All-Ameriean who qualified
for the three-mile with 14:16; and
Tim Renzelmann who ran the twomile
in 9:11.5 minutes.
Dan Stublaski just missed qualifying
by 1.6 seconds. His time was
4:20.6 in the mile.
Andy Serrano ran the 2000 meter
steeplechase. He set a school record
with 6:11.0.
"We will improve from here on

£ The wrestlers made a successful
trek to the 16th annual Southwest
Missouri State Invitational at
Springfield, Missouri. Twelve of the
best small college wrestling teams
competed.
Parkside placed fifth, which
pleased wrestling coach Jim Koch.
"I was real pleased with that. That
was th e best we've ever finished at
that meet," he said.
The other top scoring teams
were, respectively: Southern University
winning with 139; Central
State Oklahoma, ranked #1 by
NAIA; University of Omaha, ranked
4th; Eastern Illinois, ranked in
the NCAA I.
Koch added, "It was nice to finish
right behind East 111. who a re in
the NCAA Div. I. We wrestled
some caliber guys."
Mike Vania, whose record so fa r
this season is 30 wins and 5 losses,
came in second in the 126 w eight
class. He wrestled A1 Grammer of
Southern 111. Koch described Grammer
as the "outstanding wrestler of
Volleyball
the tournament."
The other second place finisher
was Mike Winter in the 142 weigh t
class. Deciding his match with 6-2
was Ronnie James from Oklahoma
who is a three-time NAIA Champion.
Two third place wrestlers were
Matt Kluge and Ted Keyes. Kluge
won five matches for third piace,
and Keyes won five and lost one.
"Ted is in an extremely tough
weight class; all of the tough competitors
are in that class. Most of
the guys he wrestles are NCAA Ail-
Americans. He does well against
this competition," commented
Koch.
Freshman wrestler Mark Duby is
making good. He placed fourth in
the 142 weight class. Koch commented,
"He performed exceptionally
well in this tournament. I'm
excited he placed fourth. I'm pleased
with the way he wrestled, especially
all year."
Todd Yde at 167 placed fifth. He
won four matches and lost two to
Gary Astel from Oklahoma, who
was fourth in the tournament last
year.
"We traveled a long way to wrestle
some good competition. These
are the guys to beat to become All-
Americans, and this is the kind of
competition you have to wrestle to
do it. All the guys did real well,"
said Koch.
Women tour Germany
by John Kovalic
f The Parkside women's volleyball
team returned this semester from a
three-week, six-match tour of West
Germany, with an excellent winning
percentage.
The team, 5-0-1 for the trip, played
teams of mixed quality, including
the Danish National team and
the Grodesberger Volleyball Club,
ranked eighth in Germany's top
league.
'The teams varied a lot in quality,"
said head Coach Terry Paulson.
"But the highlights of the trip
for us. as f ar as t he matches were
concerned, were the two against
i Grodesberger and the Danish national
team."
The team stayed outside of Wolfenbuttel,
Kenosha's sister city in
Germany, and spent fifteen days
traveling across the country. The
original tour schedule was changed
when its organizer scheduled too
many games in Denmark and Sweden.
"In mid-November we didn't
have a single contact in Germany,
but a friend of mine put me in
touch with a Frankfurt sportswriter
and we were very lucky after that,"
said Paulson.
"Some weekends we would only
get confirmation of a match the
night before the game was to take
place," he added. "It was very
much a sort of I-Spy' deal.
"But our stay was top-of-theline,"
Paulson said. "We were
treated very, very well."
Another high point occurred
when the Parkside team spent New
Year's Eve at a banquet attended
by the U. S. national team. Other
teams included those from China,
Holland, Germany, Cuba and Sweden.
"We watched the U. S. beat
China," said Paulson. "It was the
first time they had done so in eight
attempts. It was very thrilling for
myself and the players. We got to
see the team playing that will be in
the Olympics..it's like we really got
to know them.
"One of the most chilling experiences
we had was when we were
taken to see the East German border.
At one point Special Forces
from the West German military
boarded our bus to tell us how to
act.
"It was very sobering," Paulson
said. "The Special Forces came
aboard our bus and warned us not
to do anything silly. There were
trench posts, then 50 meters of
open field. Then there were the
trenches, machine gun posts and
watch towers."
Twelve people took the trip, including
Paulson and his wife. It
was privately financed by various
fund-raising events. Overall, with
the wins and the hospitality, Paulson
said the tour was "just fantastic.
"Our hosts told us to give them
more warning next time, though, so
they could treat us better/' said
Paulson. "They really appreciated
our coming. Maybe one day we'll
get the chance to go back."
