V V i;' Ranger photo by Jay Crapser New PSGA President Terry Tunks and Vice President Paul Johnson Enrollment drop lessens seg. fees by Je nnie Tunkieicz Editor If the estimated Fall 1984 enrollment of 5,626 and the estimated Summer 1984 enrollment of 1,873 do not change, the potential for a Segregated Fee Revenue shortfall is estimated at 4.9% or $34,657. Pat Hensiak, Segregated University Fees Allocations Committee (SUFAC) chairperson, explained briefly that when the economy goes up, "it stands to reason that more students will be able to afford to go away to school, so enrollment here (Parkside) is bound to drop." Hensiak explained in the Senate meeting Friday that SUFAC needs an opportunity to look over the figures and then there would have to be a meeting in regard to the situation. "What I meant by that comment was simply to say that no decisions have been made. As a committee we've not had an opportunity to look over the figures, and up to this point any speculation or estimation as to what will happen could probably be billed as premature," she said after the meeting. The potential shortfall could affect any groups who receive funding from SUFAC. "I don't think it's necessary for anyone who receives Seg Fees to start losing sleep. The committee will have to make some decisions on this, including finding a more exact figure as to how short we will be. Once we know more, we'll be happy to share any information with the students." When asked how she personally feels the situation should be handled, Hensiak stated, "As fairly as possible. Until I have more solid figures, I really think speculation would be out of line. I am quite sure, though, that the committee will work for the benefit of the campus. We'll do our best." Officers switch places by Pat Hensiak At the PSGA (Parkside Student Government Association) Senate meeting on Friday, Sept. 24, Pr esident Paul Johnson and newly-appointed Vice-President Terry Tunks switched executive positions. Johnson explained to the Senate that he would like their consent to install Terry Tunks as the Vice President, which the Senate unanimously approved. Johnson then resigned, stating that the job of PSGA President is a big one and while he is more than capable of doing the job, family and classroom obligations restricted him. Johnson felt that Tunks will do a better job for the students. Upon Johnson's resignation, Tunks became the new PSGA President and reappointed Johnson to the Vice-Presidency, which was also unanimously approved. Johnson's last act as President was to appoint Luis Valdujuli as Chief Ju stice. After the Senate meeting, Tunks was questioned as to why she reinstated Johnson as Vice-President, when it appeared he was opposed to taking on the full responsibility of t he Vice-President by not retaining the office of President after Peterson's resignation. "I believe that Paul and I can work well together. It would have been difficult for us to work the other way around. Personalities are such that this will be the best way for us to work for the organization." Tunks also explained in greater detail why a non-Senator was chosen over a Senator. "Paul and I have worked together for quite some time. We have worked well together. I was, at the time of my appointment, the secretary and treasurer of PSGA. I have been involved w ith this organization since 1981 when I was elected Senator. Of the Senators and officers involved, I have had the longest involvement. Paul felt that this was an important asset. Paul and Scott had both asked me in the past about the history of many issues. Paul thinirc there are qualified members of the Senate, but that we can work the best together under the present circumstances. Many of those who might be qualified are not prepared at this time to give the office the time it takes to do the job right." Tunks said she is most concerned about three primary issues: Parkside's decision to pull out of United Council (UC) l ast spring; the current segregted fee shortfall; and rebuilding the Senate. "I would like to help the student body make a more intelligently based decision on United Council. I Roundtable schedule set have scheduled an open forum for Oct. 1. There will be student leaders both for and against membership, as well as members from UC. This will allow the student body to ask their own questions and allow UC to present their case. In the last election, students were allowed to present their biases, but UC was not really given t he opportunity to talk to the student body," said Tunks. Tunks also feels that student organizations funded by Segregated Fees need to be concerned about their budgets. "With enrollment down to approximately 5,500, the re is less revenue than needed to fund every budget fully. This is one of the motivations for the Senate's budget cuts last week." Tunks added that some priorities need to be set about the services offered on campus. While she is not in favor of cutting services substantially, Tunks is hoping that the reserve funding will only be used as a last resort. Finally Tunks addressed the issue of rebuilding the Senate. She stated that recruitment of the new freshmen has already started. "In the coming weeks, I will be urging any and all students interested to stop in the office. It is unfortunate that at the beginning of every semester the Senate shrinks." Six Social Science Roundtables featuring discussions on faculty and academic staff compensation in the University of Wisconsin System, artificial intelligence, book-banning and President Reagan's "New Federalism," are scheduled at Parkside beginning Monday, Sept. 24. All Roundtables are free and open to the public and begin at noon on Mondays in Union Room 106. Participants are encouraged to bring their lunches. Programs begin with 20- to 25-minute talks by guest speakers followed by questions and comments. Labor groups boycott Coors by Bob Riesling Community News Editor An attempt by Coors to gain a larger share of the competitive Wisconsin beer market is being challenged by labor groups here, as part of a nationwide boycott of the company. Coors is the only major brewery in the country that uses nonunion workers. While Coors sales have fallen. they have not decreased more than other brands, said John Wavro, president of May Beverages, which distributes Coors in Kenosha. "There's no question that the boycott has hurt Coors," said Wavro, but added, "I'm pleased with the amount they're selling." He said the decrease was part of an industry-wide sales slump, because of changes in the beer market. Labor groups charge the brewery with mistreatment of employees, such as polygraph tests which question sexual preference, and political activism. There have also been charges of racial discrimination. Ron Stevens, editor of Kenosha Labor, said the paper was "trying to make the boycott as visible as possible since it (Coors) is being introduced in this area." While the re is no organization in the area specifically dedicated to organizing t he boycott, he said, the paper has been using press releases and other information supplied by the Colorado AFL-CIO. He said several bars in Kenosha have stopped carrying the beer, and that other bars report that it is not selling well. "It isn't selling what they expected," said Stevens. He stated that distributors believe the decline in Coors sales will be offset by sales of other brands. Program dates, topics and speakers are: -Sept. 24-"Catch-up and Keepup: The Status of the University of Wisconsin Compensation Plan," with Parkside economics professor Larry Duetsch and director of com munity student services Stuart Rubner, both of whom are members of the UW-System Biennial Budget Working Group on Faculty and Academic Staff Compensation.

Scott Peterson, who was elected PSGA president last spring was found academically ineligible for his position. Vice Pr esident Paul Johnson automatically became president. It is the duty of the vice president to fufill the duties of the presidency when the president is incapacitated. President Johnson appointed Terry Tunks to the vice prudent position. Tunks was serving as secretary and treasurer of PSGA a paid, nonelected position. At Friday's Senate meeting President Johnson resigned from his acquired presidency; therefore Tunks automatically became president. Her first act as president was to reappoint Johnson as vice president Sound confusing? It should sound familiar. The same type of switch occured last fall under a different administration. Former PSGA Presid ent Phil Pogreba was injured in a car accident which incapacitated him. Vice P resident Mike Scoon became President and appointed Jeanne Phillips as vice president. Scoon then resigned and President Phillips reappointed him to the vice presidency. The ol' switcheroo seems to have become just that. But this situation brings about some concerns about PSGA's operation and its fu- Has the situation really been hand led democratically? The switch was legal a nd constitutional but reflects "smoked-filled room" politics. It seems that many of the Senators were in the dark about the appointment of Tunks and the switch that followed. All of the Senators should have consulted. The Senate members are, on the average inexperienced, but this situation was presented to them as fait ac-' compli and then they were asked to give their seal of approval. More of an effort should have been made to consult with and to help the Senators understand the situation and the other options that were available. Some student leaders were also unsure about what was place. PSGA should have held an emergency informational meeting with student leaders, which could have lessened the confusion. Most disturbing is the apparent dereliction of duties by vice presidents. One of t he essential duties of a vice president is to take over the presidency when it is necessary, as it has been for the last two years By passing on the position of president like a hot potato, PSGA is failing in its responsiblity to the students. It should be noted that both Johnson and Scoon h ave families, which they felt prevented them from devoting t he time necessay to fufill the presidential duties. It is surprising that both Scoon and Johnson were reinstated in positions that they did not want to completely fufill. If for some reason Tunks is unable to fufill her duties as president, will there be another switch? One option that was not considered was having an emergency election to name a new president. Since Johnson and the Senators did not want to take the position, then an election would have been a very fair way to handle the situation. An in terim president could have been appointed until the election. It is very important that action be taken to prevent executive pitching in the future. PSGA should not set a precedent such as this. The Senate should be reeducated about the duties of the vice president so that this situation can be avoided in the future. Students need to take an interest in what is going on in their Senate. Take note of how student decisions are being made. Senate elections are coming up and students are urged to take out petitions and get involved in t he Senate. The only way things can change is if there are people concerned enough to help make those changes. • •••••• Jack Dudley, director of Physical Plant, notified the Ranger of an error which appeared in last week's editorial. The editorial said the former PSGA/SOC office in WLLC is now being used as a second shift custodial break area. Dudley said that the office is actually a Custodial Manager's office.

Feature Editor t When it comes to accessibility for people confined to wheelchairs, Parkside is one of the best schools in the UW System. The layout of the buildings and classrooms makes it relatively easy for disabled people, lik** me, to get around. However, in my two-and-a-half years here, I have noticed a few things tha t need improvement. One of the first problems that disabled students run into when they come to Parkside is the lack of an orientation program. As it now stands, the disabled student must locate the various accessibility features, such as elevators, in each of the buildings, by himself or herself. If the student needs help, he or she must actively seek it out. On the application forms, as I remember, there is a box for indicating whether the student is disabled. Why can't this information be used by th e administration to send information to disabled students that would explain the various accessibility features of the campus? Another major problem lies in the fact that both the Letter to the editor bursar's office and the financial aids office are located on the second floor of T allent Hall, and as Tallent has no elevator, it is impossible for wheelchair-bound students to get to either of these offices. This makes the disabled st udent totally reliant on someone else to do something as simple as getting an I.D. validated. I don't have an easy answer for this problem, but I'm sure something could b e done. The final problem I wish to address is the congestion in the Molinaro Concourse. Every morning the entire concourse area of Molinaro is filled with people standing in groups talking and creating an annoying traffic problem. It's almost impossible for people to walk through Molinaro, so you can imagine how difficult it is for those of us in wheelchairs. I understand that people like to talk to their friends; we all do. But could you (and you know who y ou are) show a little consideration toward others by not blocking off t he whole concourse? At least leave some room for people to get through. Parkside has made great strides in making itself accessible for disabled students. But there is still a long way to go. President's fiance discloses finances (Editor's note: Richard Oberbruner is engaged to the new PSGA (Parkside Student Government Assocation) President, Terry Tunks.) Dear Parkside en masse: Lest controversy arise, I wish to publicly disclose my full financial records in an effort to keep my personal background from hampering my darling fiance's administration. For the past t hree to four years, I have been employed as a Groundskeeper here at Parkside University. At thi s moment, I hold Limited Term Employee (LTE) status, which allows me to work onethousand- and-some-odd hours. I forget the exact amount. I receive a minimum wage that includes several raises (tacked on) over my seemingly tenured term. Whatever wages I have managed to save have paid for my tuition. I have n o college loans to pay back and no borrowing to regret except for my sister who gave me 4500 to pay for the Spring 1983 semest er. She's a fine gal and deserves immediate payment.

The purpose of the proposal is to identify certain major all-campus events which are of such importance that it should be the responsibility of the campus to sponsor them each year and to suggest a mechanism to insure that this occurs. Two of the events included on the committee plan are Homecoming and Winter Carnival, which in the past have been campus-wide events sponsored each year by segregated fees and event-generated revenue. Homecoming, a relatively new event on campus, was previously budgeted for $3200. Winter Carnival has been held traditionally in February and has been budgeted for $3225. New Events included in the ap- Message boards out Brunner Broadcasting Co., Inc., of Texas, the firm that provides the electronic message boards in the WLLC Coffee Shop and Union Square, has notified the campus that it will interrupt normal broadcasting via the boards for the next two to three weeks. A letter from the firm stated that "A technical problem related to the breakup of AT&T has magnified an internal communication problem.;; The "Campus Source" message and poster boards in the cafeteria, bookstore and Physical Education Building will continue to operate. proved allocation of $5000 from resaves are: National Hispanic Week ($1000), Martin Luther King Jr. Commemorative ($300), Black History Month ($2000), Women's History Week ($1000) and Cinco de Mayo ($700). With the approval of the proposal, a Steering Committee will be set up consisting of two faculty members, three students (appointed by PSGA) and one staff member. The Steering Committee will be responsible for developing the program budget to be presented to SUFAC each year and provide continuity and guidance for designated all-campus programs presented on an annual basis. They will also evaluate programs, recommend innovations in all-campus programming and cooperate with other programming units on campus to continue to develop and produce programs that would be of interest to the campus community. Peer Support Group continues searching "Revenge of the Nerds" didn't get rave reviews on the campus where it was filmed -Mthe University of Arizona. Among those unhappy with the finished product were fraternity and sorority leaders who met with producers during the filming, to discuss ways of more accurately representing fraternity and sorority life. Few changes resulted, say those students. Some UA officials were unhappy enough to wish they had stuck with their original decision not to allow filming on campus. On the positive side, UA di d receive $10,000 in improvements of handicapped services, courtesy of the film crew. Thousands killed last year Over 9,000 peo ple were killed by handguns last year,(about 1,000 fewer than the year before), despite a drop in the national crime rate, said the National Coalition to Ban Handguns. United Press International reported that Michael Beard, the group's president, said the drop was a result of a drop in handgun sales, shifting demographics, and a general awareness of the problems associated with handguns. Using FBI statistics, the group said Detroit had the highest homicide rate -M49.3 per 100,000 last year, almost eight times the national average. Texas, with a murder rate of 14.2 per 100,00, led states in murders. Both have virtually no handgun control, said Beard. Business means competition (NOCR) The boom in business students at UW-Madison will mean tough competition for grades - and less fun for students, warn two business department members. A rec ord 19 percent of this fall's freshman class plan to major in business. Most of the students will have to get 3.0 averages just to get into the business school, and many will need to make their college career choices early to plot specific course sequences. Editorialby Je nnie Tunlrieicz Editor The PSGA (Parkside Student Government Association) Senate again remained uncommitted in regard to taking a stand on behalf of Peer Support, the newest major organization on campus, now seeking office space to conduct business. The group was asked to leave its old office in Community Student Services shortly before the semester started. The office is now being used for its original intent, for the Associate Director of Community Student Services. At a previous meeting the Senate failed to take any stand in regard to the issue. They felt it was difficult to get the whole story from those present in the meeting, because of turbulent feelings on the issue. The issue was brought up to the Senate again this past week. New PSGA President Terry Tunks addressed the Senate, saying they should be willing to support a group like Peer Support once the group has more clearly defined what they need. "The question really isn't whether or not Peer Support deserves an office - we all know they do. The question really is how can PSGA as a group do something to really help Peer Support grow?" Pat Hensiak, Segregated University Fees Allocations Committee (SUFAC) chairperson, added, "I agree. We a s a group need to be prepared to give Peer Support some added direction, and more than that, we really have to start to put a little bit of what we've gotten out of the school back into it. There are a lot of students who have fought a long, hard time to secure the rights we currently work under, and we should be working to make the organizations we run strong enough to stand strong without us. When a group takes hard hits, like Peer Support has, or like any of our groups could, we should be prepared to bounce back. After all, tough situations never last, tough people do." The Senate took no formal action at its last meeting, but agreed that prepared t o help Peer Support. Sex Continued from page I ce, and he has made suggestions to them already, although those suggestions were unacceptable to the group. We feel that the Custodial Management office is a "prime" area, and would perfectly meet Peer Support's needs. We hope that the option to relocate the Custodial Management office will be one that will be kept open. Revolutionary dust is settling Student leader workshop weekend coming up The Student Leadership Workshop "Smooth Sailing HI" will be presented on Sept. 22 and 23 at Camp Juniper Knolls near East Troy, Wis. The third annual workshop, sponsored by the Student Activities Office, is designed to increase communication and awareness among student organizations and the administrative staff. •Those attending the workshop will participate in such topics as "Working With Committees," "Developing Good Communication Skills," "Recruitment and Retention of Volunteers," and "Goal Setting." The topics presented should assist participants by providing helpful information for the organization as well as the person. The cost is $5 per person and includes meals, materials, lodging, transportation and a T-shirt. Student organization officers and members who are interested can sign up in the Student Activities Office, Union 209. (NOCR) Aside from being generally in favor of it, what do college students think about sex? Two studies, at Rugters University and the University of Maryland, indicate the dust has settled from the sexual revolution. While students have become more liberal in many areas, such as homosexuality and abortion, other attitudes, like those toward monogamy and contraception, remain moderate and conservative. Sexual behavior among college students, the studies say, doesn't seem much different from that in the general population. The Rutgers study, conducted by psychotherapist Pat Murphy and sociologist Aim Pare lius, found that less than half the male population was sexually active, and only 70 percent reported having intercourse within the last year. Fewer Rutgers women, 67 percent, reported occasional intercourse, but more, 50 percent, described themselves as sexually active than did the males. A large percentage of both groups - 83 percent of the males and 90 percent of the females - said they were sexually monogamous. Fear of herpes and AIDS (Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome) has made 27 percent of the males and 29 percent of the females change their sexual practices. Still, medically diagnosed venereal disease appeared in 13 percent of the female population and 14 percent of the males. The Maryland study, which compared student attitudes from 1973 to 1983, found that awareness of where to go on campus for information about V.D., contraception and abortion has dropped from 91 percent ten years ago to 75 percent today. At Rutgers only 35 percent of the sexually active students said they had an adequate contraceptive method they always used. While most students said that using contraception eased their minds, 35 percent of the males said they would be "disappointed" if their partner used a diaphragm, and 25 percent said they would be "turned off." Twenty-seven percent of the women showed a similar attitude, saying they would be turned off if their partner used a condom. Interestingly, unwanted pregnancies were reported by both sexes in roughly the same percentages as venereal disease. The major findings of the Maryland study won that more students engage in premarital sex now than in 1973. Attitudes toward abortion have become more liberal, and fewer students believe homosexuals need psychological treatment More students in 1983 sa id they would keep their homosexuality a secret than in 1973, however. The study also turned up an increasingly conservative attitude toward what is acceptable sexual behavior for women. The belief that women should only have sex with partners with whom they are involved emotionally has increased from 42 percent to 52 percent in ten years. Also, significantly more females than males believed the availability of contraceptives on campus increased promiscuity. A recent Johns Hopkins study of high school students showed the inconsistency of some of these attitudes is not a product of college life; high school students also have contradictory feelings about sex. For example, 60 percent of the females and 80 percent of the males said they had already lost their virginity. But 83 percent said that 18 would be the best age at which to begin having sexual relations. That, says Hopkins researchers, means many of the young people who have started having sex wish they had not. One fourth of the high school students said that premarital sex is, simply, wrong. Most high school students agreed that having sex without contraceptives is foolish, but (me fourth admitted doing so in their most recent sexual contact. 4 Thursday, Sept. 20,1984 HANGER Homecoming OWJiitlhk THIo mecomii ng soon upon us, '84 starts it's time once again to begin thinking about Homecoming King and Queen elections.

Gipson's act is a combination of music, comedy and caricatures, which he draws on an overhead projector. Among his targets were such celebrities as Mr. T, Tom Selleck and the Ewoks. Gipson, however, proved that he didn't need his drawings in order to be fanny as he talked about everything from hunters to a young boy's experience buying his first jockstrap. At one point in his show, Gipson handed out an "audience survey," which consisted of she ets of power which the audience members could wad up and throw at him.

"When you got into trouble in our study hall, they made you either clean up the parking lot, mop the floors, or do things like work on the annual staff or the student newspaper. So that's when I started drawing cartoons, to get out of having to do maintenance work. I had no idea I could do it I just knew I didn't want to pick up beer cans." Gipson discovered that he could link comedy and cartooning when he worked on shopping malls, where he was billed as "The World's Fastest Cartoonist." "It's a silly title, but it gets press.

Four months ago, he opened for the group "Firefall," and in October, he will open for Andy Willi ams in LaCrosse. Gipson said there is really no way tha t a person can learn to be funny. "You're either born sick o r you fall on your head, or while your mother's pregnant s he takes some kind of drug tha t alto's your mind.

Student given refund Salina, Kan-A college that promised to refund the tuition of any student who failed to get a job offer within 120 days of graduation will be making its first refund, a school official said Saturday. United Press International reported that Myrna Baxter, a computer programming student who graduated in May, will get a 96,210 refund from Brown Mackie College because she failed to get a serious, full-time job offer within the time limit, said college president Gary Talley. The school will also reimburse the government $540 for an education grant Baxter received from the Department of Education, he said. Baxter is the first student to ask for the refund under the tuitionback guarantee announced in December, Talley said. She has since found a job as a computer programmer for a Kansas City truck-leasing company. But Talley said a committee decided she is entitled to the refund because she did not get a legitimate offer within the time limit. by Jim Neibaur Feature Editor Dr. Keith Ward, one of the best and most respected chemists on campus, is leaving Parkside for a position in Washington, D.C. "My decision to move was a complex decision with many factors," he said. "I was offered a prestigious position and was flattered to be offered this position. It will give me an opportunity to wort: in a laboratory that is better equipped and better funded than any other lab that I've worked in, and the salary is a lot better than what I'm making here.I'm pessimistic about University salaries, particularly the last few years in the University of Wisconsin System in general. "Because of my particular age and the point in my scientific career, I'm still able to move, I'm still employable, while I might not be in five or ten years." The position the 41-year-old Ward is taking is that of s enior research bio-physicist at the Naval Research Laboratories in Washington, D.C., a federally-supported basic research laboratory. "I will be working in the laboratory for the structure of matter, and the work I will be doing there is very similar to the types of things I have been doing at Parkside for the last eight years; that is, studying the structure of proteins in an attempt to determine how they work based on what your atomic structure is." Ward did not apply for this position, but was soujght out by the Naval Laboratories. "There is a large community that do this type of work and I think we all know of each other.

Feature Editor This week's PAB film presentation is the runaway hit of last spring, "Romancing the Stone." The plot is relatively simple. Romance novelist Joan Wilder receives a phone call from her sister in Colombia. The sister, Elaine, has been kidnapped, and Joan is to deliver a map to the kidnappers as ransom. In Colombia, Joan gets involved not only with the kidnappers, but also with drug runners, the secret police, and last but not least, an American named Jack Colton. "Romancing the Stone" is action packed, fast moving, and a whole lot of f un. The characters are likeable, and the story, though at times improbable and contrived, is well plotted and exciting. The character of Jack Colton, played by Michael Douglas (who also produced the film) is another California and a young son. He states that his wife, a master of fine arts, is excited about the move to California. Mary Ann Terozzo, a recent Parkside chemistry gradute, who has been working in Dr. Ward's research lab for the past four years, will also be going to the Naval Research Labs, probably in January, to be employed by the science division. This ws not only by Ward's recommendation, it was one of the conditions upon which he took the job. While happy with his promotion, both in prestige and financially, Ward is sorry to leave Parkside but he states that he has enjoyed working with college students very much and will miss this experience. the Stone • • in a series of imperfect heroes. I like this type of character; it lends a sense of reality to the film. By being imperfect and prone to mistakes, this kind of character is easy for the audience to identify with. As Joan, Kathleen Turner gives a wonderful portrayal of a city girl who is totally out of h er element in the jungles of Colombia. With this role, Miss Turner proves herself to be one of the most versatile actresses in film today. The only real flaws in "Romancing the Stone" are the several quite brutal scenes near the end of the film. These scenes seem very out of place in a movie which, for the most part, is a light, breezy comedy- adventure. Still, these scenes won't detract much from your enjoyment of the film. "Romancing the Stone" is an enjoyable, exciting adventure tale. It will have you on the edge of your seat and it will make you laugh, often both at the same time.

As weekly telecasts, they have no choice but to continually With six you get eggroll by Natalie P. Habennao The idea of writing a restaurant review column began during the spring semester of la st year. It arose out of a twofold situation of allowing me to share frequent explorations of area restaurants and their attributes (both good and bad) with the Parkside community. This in turn provided the opportunity to take eight years of institutional food experience and mold it into an informative public service. Each week a different Racine or Kenosha restaurant, diner, snack shop or bar will be reviewed. Features such as location, parking availability, atmosphere, menu selection, drink specials, house specialities, service, cleaniness, appropriate atttire and a multide of other relevant tidbits will be included. While I cannot assure you that my observations and opinions will coincide with everyone else's experiences relating to a specific restaurant (after all, review columns are by nature subjective), there is one guarantee that will be made: absolutely no restaurant will be reviewed if i t cannot cater to the college student and our conscientious budgets. It would be unrealistic and cruel to describe in detail an eight-course, five-hour meal. Although many of us would find this total dining experience to be a worthwhile value, most students simply do not have the revenue nor the desire to indulge in such a lavish outing. On the other hand, a review of "fast food chains" would be equally cruel. The majority of t hese places are not as prompt and reasonably priced as they advertise to be. The food certainly does not taste as good as it looks on the big plastic signs above the registers. In fact, it often tastes more like the big plastic signs themselves! Our area i^ full of surp risingly good places to eat. We are surrounded by a variety of ethnic and specialty establishments, along with some of the most classic and traditional "hamburger and malt shop" places to be found anywhere. With this in mind, I hope you will be able to use the restaurant column not as a rating system, but as a helpful guide the next time someone says, "Where should we go to eat?" show non-talents fluffing lines, getting all flustered and ppgiinp AFTERMASH What a nifty idea!

THE DUKES OF HAZZARD There have been many shows as bad as this that the lobotomy crowd has been watching religiously and thus keeping on the air, lowering American tastes considerably as far as art is concerned. Good television is so much a thing of the past that reruns are grabbing higher ratings than network programming. "The Dukes of Hazzard" is the epitome of bad television: no acting, no writing, no direction, no general construction, just a lot of spills and thrills with two dipshits who take turns as "hunk of the month" in Tiger Beat magazine. Shows like this make "Andy Griffith" and "Bewitched" reruns look better every day...and that's bad!

Feature Editor "All of Me" is the new starring vehicle for Steve Martin. In it he stars as the vehicle for Lily Tomlin. Let me explain that. In "AH of Me" Martin plays Roger Cobb, an idealistic young lawyer. Roger's new case involves Edwina Cutwater (Tomlin), a rich, dying woman. Edwina has a plan whereby even though her body will die, her soul will live on in the body of Terry (Victoria Tennant), Tomlin's stableman's daughter. This exchange of souls is to be accomplished with the aid of a Tibetan mystic named Praka Lasa, wonderfully played by Richard Libertini. Through a mixup, Edwina's soul ends up in Roger's body. "All of Me," which was adapted from Ed Davis' novel "Me Two" by screenwriter Phil Alden Robinson, is another collaboration between Martin and director Carl Reiner. This combination is again successful, as "All of Me" is Martin's best film to date. The film opens strongly, with several of the funniest scenes I have seen in a long time. It sags a bit in the middle, becoming somewhat uneven, but it regains its footing in time for a very funny ending. One thing that puts "All of Me" above many other film comedies is its development of the characters of Roger and Edwina. The characters do not remain static, but grow and change as the film progresses. This character development is something that one doesn't see often in comedies and I find it quite refreshing. As Roger Cobb, Martin proves himself a superb physical comedian. When Roger and Edwina struggle for control of Roger's body, Martin very nearly turns the "silly walk" into an art form. Lily Tomlin does an adequate job as Edwina, considering that most of the time she is seen only in mirrors. But as good as Martin and Tomlin are, the film is very nearly stolen by the supporting cast, especially Richard Libertini as Praka Lasa, and Jason Bernard as Tyrone, a blind street musician. These two, along with Selma Diamond (one of my favorite character actresses), give "All of Me" one of the strongest supporting casts in recent years. "All of Me" is a treat for Steve Martin fans and should also create many new fans. It's a light, very funny film, which is perfect fare to take your mind off your problems, at least for a while. RANGER Ranger photo by Dave McEvoy Material by Dave Marsh Dave Marsh Writing on 'rock' by Jim Neibaur Feature Editor Dave Marsh has been writing on rock music for some years now. He has contributed articles to Creem, Rolling Stone, Record, TV Guide, and Village Voice, among others. Marsh has wr itten well-researched, definitive biographies on rock legends Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Presley and The Who, as well as editing " The Book of Rock L ists" and volumes one and two of "The Rolling Stone Record Guide." Marsh is now publishing a newsletter called " Rode and Roll Confidential." There are no photos, there is no advertising, no real gloss of any kind. "Rod e and Roll Confidential" strives to go straight to the heart of rock and roll: a serious perspective on one of ou r most important and outspoken forms of popular music. "The focus isn't on personalities," said Marsh during a recent interview, "b ut on issues and politics in music, none of which the rock magazines ar e about. They're all about personalities. For instance, I don't know where you could read about the rock music that's coming from Poland, which is what was in our last issue." In its eighteen months of existence, "Rock and Roll Confidential" has risen to three thousand subscribers, according to Marsh. This is quite impressive, since Marsh has done very little advertising to promote the newsletter. (hie problem that plagues "Rock and Roll Confidential" is that Marsh, the central writer of the newsletter, is mercilessly opinionated; if be doesn't like it, then it just can't be any good. This is quite evident with the "Record Guide" bodes. After the first volume was released in 1979, Marsh and his staff put together a second, updated volume in 1983. In the second edition, however, Marsh went through the bode and re-rated several albums t hat had been critiqued in the first edition by other reviewers. "If you don't change your reviews and your ideas are fixed," said Marsh, "then you just aren't doing your jo b." When re-rating records, Marsh caused a bit of furor among rock fans when docking The Doors' classic final LP "L.A. Woman" from five stars to a mere two. "I don't care what you're comparing it to, in any remotely objective sense, "L.A. Woman" is not a great record," said Marsh during our interview. Marsh didn't bother explaining why he felt this way, but it seems that no other rock critics or fans agree with him. Marsh, meanwhile, reserved his five star ratings for albums like Michael Jackson's overhyped and overplayed "Thriller" which some folks are already predicting will soon meet th e same oblivion as 1977's commercial smash "Saturday Night Fever." In answer to a statement written in a recent Chicago Tribune column stating that "Out of the thirty million people who bought Michael Jackson's "Thriller," probably twenty-six million are sorry," Marsh stated "I think that's one hundred percent wrong!" These arbitrary criticisms aren't all Marsh is about, however. While "Rock and Roll Confidential" is subject to Marsh's opinions, it still does serve its purpose as a newsletter giving it s readers information on rock that just isn't found elsewhere. The absence of banal photos, ads and glossy profiles on teen idols is also welcome. Marsh's books are well researched and intelligently written. His opinionated criticisms seem absent in his affectionate and accurate evaluation of Presley's undeniable impact and artistry in the book, "Elvis," doing similar service to The Who in the book "Before I Get Old" and Bruce Springsteen in "Born To Run." Dave Marsh is opinionated as hell, true, but he is also a good writer, and like few others, genuinely loves rock music (even to the point of calling " rap" exciting). It is these positive aspects tha t make "Rock and Roll Confidential" worth checking out.

On Sept. 9, the Rangers traveled to Stevens Point for the Pointer Invitational. Fifteen teams participated, and when it was all over, UWWhitewater, led by medalist Jim Wahl's 78, stood alone at the top of the standings with 385. Parkisde finished in a tie for sixth with St. Norbert at 413. The top finisher for the Rangers was Rick Elsen with a 79. Other scores were Ken Maegaard at 80, Jim Zuzinec at 84 and Scott Schellpfeffer and Bill Aiello at 85. "We played OK," said coach Steve Stephens, "but nobody got it going, which is typical of the first tournament of the year." Things improved at the next tournament on Sept. 10 at the Tuscumbia Invitational. Led by Zuzinec's 73, Parkside shot a team total of 385, just six shots behind UW-Oshkosh. Zuzinec's score put him in a three-way tie for second place in individual honors, one shot behind medalist Dale Seidl of UWGreen Bay. "Jim played extremely well, but he didn't putt well," commented Stephens. "However, he was consistent for the most part." The rest of the team had good roun ds, also, all breaking 80. Maegaard had 77, Mike Ritacco and Schelpfeffer each shot 79 and Kyle Corrigall had a 79. Stephens said he was happy with his team's play and he was "pleased with the overall consistency of the team." After these first two matches, the team is playing well, and Stephens believes they will be very competitive the rest of t he fall season. "If we can keep it coming now," said Stephens, "I think we can approach what we did at the beginning of the season. If we're able to do that, Parkside will have to be reckoned with." The men's fall baseball season is off to a good start. Last year's defending champions played two games with Marquette last Saturday, at Parkside, with a 1-1 result. The team lost the first game 12-8. According to captain Duane McLean, they lost because Parkside gave up 13 walks. Starting for the team as pitcher was Chris Rozell, a returning junior. Kyle Backes, a returning junior, relieved Rozell. Senior Duane McLean had two hits and two RBI's. One home run was hit by freshman John Nielsen. McLean said the team still did quite well. "We were down 11-0 and we came back in the fifth inning... we couldn't, however, overcome the walks," McLean corn- Last Saturday, Sept. 15, the men's cross country team took second out of 19 te ams in the SIU-Edwardsville Invitational. The men ran on an eight-kilometer course. George Kapheim placed fifth, with a time of 26.01. Tim Renzelmann placed eighth, with a time of 26.05. Dan Stublaski, with a time of 26.35, finished in eighteenth place. Rich Miller finished right behind Stublaski, with a time of 26.40. Andy Ferrano completed the race in 27.10 and took 29th place.

Tennis team loses again The women's tennis team lost again. In Milwaukee the team's overall score was 9-0. According to coach Wendy Miller, player Linda Masters had a good match considering the other player's scores. Masters lost, however, with match scores 64 and 6-3. Saturday's doubles tournament in Oshkosh e nded up in a loss for Parkside. Miller feels that the team didn't even place. Linda Masters and Amy Tropin teamed up, but lost to Eau Claire, 6-1, 3-6 and 6-3. Tropin a nd Master lost the consofcfion match against UW-Stout 3- 6, 6-1 and 6-1.

Jeu de paume, anyone? by Kimberlie Kranich What sport originated in France, can be played with either two or four players a nd is so strict on etiquette on the professional level that a player breaking the rules is readily fined? The answer: tennis. As early a s the 12th or 13th century, the game of tennis began, but was called "jeu de paume," meaning game of the palm. In "jeu de paume," the players batted a ball back and fo rth over a net with the palm of their hand. Major Walter Clopton Wingfield of England, generally considered the father of modern tennis, introduced in 1873 a version of the game closely resembling the sport as it is played today. Tennis is played on a court made either of grass, clay, concrete, wood or commercial surfaces (a combination of asphalt, cork and plastic fibe rs). The game we refer to today simply as "tennis" is actually "lawn tennis." When tennis was first brought to the U.S., it was played solely on grass. Most major tennis tournaments, Wimbledon for example, are played on grass courts. The ball bounces low on gr ass courts, thereby fostering a n aggressive match. Played on clay courts, the ball takes a slower bounce, thus fostering a game of long rallies. The concrete courts, like those at Parkside, elicit high an d deep rebound shots. The fastest of all court surfaces is the wood su rface. Because of t he speed with which the hall leaves the court, the player must use a very s hort backswing on the forehand an d backhand strokes. To play tennis, one needs a tennis racquet, tennis balls, tennis shoes and comfortable clothing. Tennis racquets vary in materials from wood to aluminum to graphite. For a beginner, a wooden racrecommended because it a player's control of the quet is aids in ball. When selecting a racquet, the most important factor to consider is the "grip" size, or circumference of the handle. If the grip is too small, the racquet will tend to slip in one's hand; if the grip is too large, the racquet cannot be held firmly and may slip. One way to determine one's proper grip size is to wrap the fin- Continned on pa ge 12 by Rob b Luehr Friday was a big day for me - I finally got to see a major golf tournament, thanks to the Ranger and the organizers of the Greater Milwaukee Open. I received a guest pass to do a story on what it's like to be at a major Professional Golfers Assocation event. As a golfer myself, I can tdl you it was a good feeling to be within mere feet of some of the best golfers in the world: men such as Tom Watson, Calvin Peete, Andy Bean, Tom Kite and ChiChi Rodriquez. The first incarnation of the GMO was held at the North Shore Country Club in 1968. I t was held there through 1970. In 1971 and 1972 th e event was moved to the Tripoli Country Club. In 1973 Tuckaway Country Club became the permanent home of the tournament. The only drawback to the tournament in the past was that it was played only one week before the British Open. All the big names wait to Britain to prepare for that, thus leaving t he GMO with second division play ers. Naturally, without a big name or two, not many people are going to come out to see the event. I mean, who's gonna follow Gavin Levinson or Rick Dalpos for 18 holes? It's not that they haven't had great players play in the GMO: Arnold Pa lmer, Gary Player and Sam Snead played there in the early days of the tournament, and Lee Trevino was there as recently as 1978. He came to Milwaukee and intended to leave right after the last round to catch a plane to the British Open. As luck would have it, Trevino ended up in a sudden death playoff that lasted for eight holes, the longest in PGA history. He just barely made his plane. This year, however, was differWATCH THE ^•(4r Si CHICAGO CUBS \ M ^ THIS WEEK AT THE CUBS WIN! UNION SQUARE y y , ATHLETE OF THE WEEK ••••••••••••••• Senior Cross Country Runner GEORGE KAPHE1M was at his best this week. He ran fifth at the Edwardsville Invitational, out of 172 starting entries. Last year George was named a NAIA All American for the first time and he is on his way to achieving that status again this year. Before the Edwardsville event, he ran second in the two previous cross country competitions. We wish George Good Luck throughout the coming year. ent. The people in charge of the GMO decided that if they wanted big names in Milwaukee, they would have to change the timing of the event. They decided to have it the second week of September so conflict with an important tournament would b e eliminated. The strategy worked. Tom Watson, this year's top money winner, and Tom Kite, number two in earnings, announced that they would come to Milwaukee. In fact, six of the top 20 money w inners entered. I figured that following a particular player for a round would be interesting. I forked out 50 cents for a pairing sheet and looked for a familiar name who might be teeing off when I got there. I quickly noticed Tom Kite was about ready to go on his second nine holes of the day. Upon further scanning, I noticed another very well-known name. ChiChi Rodriguez, Puerto Rico's answer to Jack Nicklaus, was to tee off a bout the time Kite was to finish his round. So I had time to follow Kite and got back in time to follow Rodriques. Kite and his playing partners Gary Hallberg and Mark McCumber went out on hole number one. For all three golfers, it was an uneventful round, except on hole four, where Kite's second shot decided to home in on a man sitting in a lawn chair. On one bounce, the ball ended up in the guy's lap. Fortunately for both men, Kite got a free drop and made a par on the hole. Kite went on to shoot a 71, as did McCumber. Hallberg shot a 75. Now it was time. Rodriguez got a big hand from the crowd as he stepped up to the first tee. He acknowledged the gallery more than once. In fact, during his whole round he talked to spectators constantly. He answered questions, told jokes and basically had a good time on the course. Rodriguez did his famous sword act when he made a birdie on the sixth hole. For those who have never seen the Rodriguez saber dance, he sticks his putter in his belt, pulls it out, does a mark of Zorro, wipes off the blade and puts it back in his belt. After that, on the seventh tee, he stated that golf was "the most fun you could have with your clothes on." He went on to post a 72. I have to say something about Rodriguez's putter. I spoke to his caddy, who said the putter Rodriguez was using was 48 ye ars old and that Rodriguez found it in a pawn shop 15 years ago. A true golfer would appreciate seeing that putter. I know for some of you, hitting a little white ball with a stick is not exactly enough to make goose bumps appear. But for those of you who have had the unequaled feeling of hitting a shot within two feet of the cup, this game grabs you and won't let go. Just ask the estimated 33,000 people who attended the last day of the GMO. They all saw a great tournament and look forward to next year to see who'll be here to challenge this course. I think that this year was just the beginning of a new era of golf in Milwaukee. Look for many more stars of the PGA to be there next year and for many years to come. MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL IN THE SQUARE T SCREEN MONDAY, SEPT. 24 SAN DIEGO AT LA RAIDERS > • BEER • SODA * WINE • POPCORN THE PARKSIDE UNION 12 Thursday, Sept. 20, 1984 Graduate continues career at Parkside RANGER by Carol Kortendick Sports Editor What happens to past students and athletes? One former favorite, Dona Driscoll, is working part-time in the physical education building. She also assists Mike Dewitt in coaching the women's cross country team. To jog your memory, Driscoll ran for Parkside's track and cross-country teams. She was awarded All American twice in cross country, twice for the 600 yd. race and once in the 3000 M. She began her athletic career at Jeu de paume, anyone? Muskego High, not as a runner, however, but as a swimmer. Driscoll explained, "I was a swimmer before I was a runner. I never went out for cross country in high school. I was never a serious runner," Dona concluded. Driscoll was a sprinter, however, and in her senior year, former Parkside coach Barb Lawson recruited her. College wasn't in Driscoll's picture, but she couldn't refuse a scholarship to run for Parkside. As a freshman, Driscoll only ran indoor and outdoor track. Her Continued from page 11 gers around the handle in one direction and the thumb in the other direction. If the grip is proper, one's thumb should extend over the first knuckle of the middle finger. Tennis has what is perhaps the most unique scoring system of a ny popular sport today. There are four basic points in the game. The first point has a value of 15; the second poind 30; the third point 40; and the fourth point is simply "game." The term for a score of zero in tennis is "love." When calling off the score, the server's score is always declared first. When e ach player wins three points apiece, the score is "deuce." Once at deuce, a player must win the next two consecutive points in order to win the set. "Advantage" is the term that refers to the point following deuce. If it is the server's advantage, it is called "advantage in" and when it is the receiver's advantage, it is called "advantage out." There is a variation to the way in which one can score tennis. Instead of giving t he value of the first point at 15. it can be called 1; the second point 2; the third point 3; and the fourth point "game." The term for zero is still "love." The reason for this change is to make the game shorter. After one has the proper tennis equipment and knows how to keep score, one must learn the four basic strokes of tennis: the forehand drive, the backhand drive, the serve and the volley. To put the ball in play, one must utilize the serve. With the serve, one throws the ball into the air and hits it with the racquet in midair before it bounces, sending it over the net into the opponent's service box. The receiver of the serve can return the serve on one bounce with a backhand or forehand drive, depending on where the ball lands in the service box. After the ball has been in play a while, one may want to charge the net and hit a volley. During a volley one punches the ball with the racquet while it is still in midair, before it has bounced, forcing it into the opponent's court. There are variations of each of these shots and the mastering of each takes many hours of practice. If you want to improve your tennis game, just look under "tennis" in the subject catalog of the Parkside library, and you'll find some helpful books with illustrations on how to play. Tennis is for the young and old, amateurs and professionals. Although the game of tennis has not changed drastically since it was introduced to the U.S. by Sir Walter Wingfield, one's own tennis game can improve dramatically, depending upon the number of hours one devotes to practice. Sports Trivia In the 1956 World Series, Don Larsen pitched the only perfect game in Series history. What team did he beat, and what was the final score of the game? The answer to last week's question is Jim O'Brian. Puzzler Answer Ranger needs sportswriters roommates, on the other hand, were cross country runners. She watched their dedication, early morning runs and twice-a-day workouts and decided to follow their lead. Driscoll added, "My friends said, 'Just go out for cross country. It'll help your base for track.' " In her first year of cross country, Driscoll made All American. She placed 17th in a field of 25 ru nners in Salinas, Kansas. The following year, at Parkside, Driscoll took 14th out of 25. Again, she made All American honors. Suffering from an injury, Driscoll was unable to run the 1983 indoor track season. Her final semester was approaching, and her qualification as an athlete was running out. When the outdoor season arrived in March, she was still injured. Nationals were coming up in a month and a half. Wanting to leave Parkside in style, Driscoll began intense training. Nothing was going to stop her. "Everything centered around training back then," Driscoll recalled. "I was afraid to miss one day or my twice-a-day workouts. My season records weren't that great, but that didn't matter; everything came down to Nationals." When it came time for Nationals, Driscoll wasn't sure she was ready. "At the race I was afraid, but I guess I was as ready as I ever was going to be at that time." "Everything fell into place," she added. "It was a great race, probably the best race I've ever run." She remembered certain feelings at the race. "In the first couple of miles, I was about sixth or seventh. After a couple more laps, I started picking off the runners. All of a sudden, I realized I was right in front with the lead runner. No one else was around." Driscoll finished second, with a time of 947.6. Sh e was .3 seconds behind first. Now, she's not as serious. She runs with the team in the evenings and by herself in the morning. She runs every day except Saturdays and Sundays. Throughout the week, she varies her workouts from difficult to easy to medium days. She averages about 70-75 miles a week. This past summer, Driscoll participated in a European race. She went with an International Sports Exchange group out of California. This year's race was held in Cologne, West Germany. Driscoll had the opportunity to compete against some teams that participated in this summer's Olympic games. Driscoll completed first in the 3000 M rac e. At pr esent, Driscoll doesn't have any dreams of contending in the Olympics. "I don't think I'm Olympic caliber right now, nor think I ever will be. I just like to take one seaso at a time," asserted Driscoll. She added, "I know my times have come down a lot over the years just from a l i t t l e harder training...Maybe I'll join a national team." In January, 1985 Driscoll hopes to move to Arizona. The 24-year-old stated, "Hopefully I can start training more seriously, especially in the warmer climate." Ranger photo by Jay Crapser Dona Driscoll Driscoll is competing in races. She leaves weekends open for just that. Last weekend she ran at County Stadium in the Miller Brewery Race. With a time of 17.32, she took first in the 5000 M. race. Running with the present cross country team, Driscoll has the chance to watch the girls and offer advice. She stated, "I think this year's team is together and self motivated. They like training and like each other. They're everything a coach could ask for in a team," concluded Driscoll. She also offers advice to the team and to beginners. "It's hard in the beginning, but it gets easier. If you really want it, you have to work for it; and finally, things start falling into place." @® @®^7®D0(°1 COMPATIBILITY. . .
