Committee looks&#13;
to&#13;
restructure UC&#13;
ual(s) who reserve and pay the fa-&#13;
cility&#13;
use fee. The proposal also&#13;
states  that  beverages  for large&#13;
events,  such as the END, should be&#13;
chosen by the sponsoring group in&#13;
conjunction&#13;
with&#13;
the Union Direc-&#13;
tor.&#13;
In the past, the Union has follow-&#13;
ed an unwritten  policy of saying the&#13;
top  selling  brand  at  large  events&#13;
such  as the  END.  At the  closed&#13;
events, such as a private party,&#13;
more than one is served and the&#13;
group may request  the brand to be&#13;
served. At open events, such as&#13;
PAB sponsored  dances, the Union&#13;
serves all the brands that are usu-&#13;
ally on tap, except super premium.&#13;
Harmann  feels  this  proposal&#13;
would aid PAB in securing a&#13;
beer&#13;
distributor for sponsorship for the&#13;
END.&#13;
Bill&#13;
Niebuhr,  Union  Director,&#13;
said he&#13;
feels&#13;
that&#13;
beer&#13;
selection&#13;
is&#13;
a&#13;
management  decision.  "We want&#13;
the right to sell lbe product  that&#13;
will&#13;
sell the&#13;
best,"&#13;
said&#13;
Niebuhr.&#13;
Niebuhr explained&#13;
that&#13;
this&#13;
proce-&#13;
dure has been followed&#13;
in&#13;
the&#13;
past&#13;
in&#13;
order to serve the greatest&#13;
num-&#13;
her of students, while keeping poli-&#13;
tics out of the selection process.&#13;
Bruce Preston,  Student-at-large-&#13;
representative,&#13;
said&#13;
he&#13;
feels&#13;
that&#13;
adopting Hannann's  recommenda-&#13;
tion. PUAB would&#13;
be&#13;
"protecting&#13;

not have been the same. To the&#13;
Winter  Carnival   Committee,&#13;
RANGER, PAC, PAB, and all the&#13;
other  clubs  that  competed  in&#13;
SNOWBUSTERS, thank you for a&#13;
SP!RlTED  and  successful  Winter&#13;
CarnivaL&#13;
To the Editor:&#13;
f would like to compliment  the&#13;
Winter  Carnival  Committee  on  a&#13;
very  successful  SNOWBUSTING&#13;
event.  In the  four years  that  I've&#13;
been privileged&#13;
to&#13;
observe and&#13;
par-&#13;
ticipate  in Winter  Carnival,  I've&#13;
never seen more spirit shown&#13;
by&#13;
in-&#13;
dividual clubs and the campus as a&#13;
whole. The competition  was fierce&#13;
yet friendly,  and  the  competition&#13;
for the 'best'  club and the SPIRIT&#13;
AWARD went down to the last few&#13;
minutes   of  a  very  successful&#13;
BEACH&#13;
PARTY.&#13;
My heartiest   CONGRATULA-&#13;
TIONS&#13;
to&#13;
the GEOLOGY CLUB for&#13;
their&#13;
FIRST&#13;
PLACE finish.&#13;
As&#13;
the&#13;
Geology Club's advisor, f am pleas-&#13;
ed&#13;
to see their victory in the over-&#13;
aU point standings.  What is more&#13;
important,   however,  is that  the&#13;
Geology  Club,  although  small  in&#13;
numbers,   showed  the  Parkside&#13;
There ought&#13;
to&#13;
be a law&#13;

Geology Club Advisor&#13;
but ...&#13;
me,&#13;
other  club members  and most  of&#13;
them would not have voted for him&#13;
in the first place.&#13;
Is&#13;
there not some&#13;
kind of campus bylaws that says the&#13;
president  has to be elected by the&#13;
club&#13;
or is&#13;
this&#13;
common practice to&#13;
have the club president  pick him-&#13;
self.&#13;
To the Editor:&#13;
Last year&#13;
I&#13;
was a member of the&#13;
UW-Parkside  Bowling  Club.  We&#13;
had an election of officers, but this&#13;
year&#13;
at&#13;
the first meeting  the&#13;
cur-&#13;
rent&#13;
president  introduced  himself&#13;
as  the  Bowling  Club  President.&#13;
There was no election of any kind.&#13;
Right then&#13;
I&#13;
was turned  off,&#13;
be-&#13;
cause we had no choice in the mat-&#13;
ter.&#13;
I&#13;
have&#13;
talked&#13;
to most of the&#13;
Yes there  are many critics&#13;
oul&#13;
there  who have never seen&#13;
"Intol·&#13;
erance,"   "Citizen  Kane,"&#13;
"City  \&#13;
Lights,"   "Grand&#13;
Illusion,"&#13;
"The&#13;
Seventh   S.al,"   or many olher\&#13;
cinema  classics,&#13;
thus&#13;
limiting&#13;
their&#13;
range  for  comparison (e.g.&#13;
being&#13;
able to only compare "Smokey&#13;
and&#13;
the Bandit&#13;
II"&#13;
to "Smokey&#13;
and&#13;
llie&#13;
Bandit"),   and  thus&#13;
many&#13;
main·&#13;
stream  films that are&#13;
forgolten&#13;
in&#13;
five years open to critical&#13;
acclaim&#13;
Some&#13;
examples:&#13;
Roger&#13;
Ebert&#13;
gave "Grease"  four&#13;
stars,&#13;
his&#13;
hi~·&#13;
est rating. Sounds sillynow.does'l&#13;
. it?  The  Marx  Brothers'&#13;
"Duck&#13;
Soup" received poor reviewsin&#13;
its&#13;
time, but is now considered&#13;
a clas-&#13;
sic political satire.&#13;
It's really hard to predictthesta·&#13;
tus of a film's worih downIherood&#13;
a few years without comparingilto&#13;
similar   products  and&#13;
boW  weU&#13;
THEY  did over a period of&#13;
lime.&#13;
And yet if the film doeshold~,&#13;
another   later&#13;
film&#13;
could&#13;
come&#13;
along a~d be so much bellerthalil&#13;
renders  the first&#13;
film&#13;
insigruficanl&#13;
It gets pretty crazy after a while&#13;
All in all, my reviewsof&#13;
films on&#13;
campus   or  in  the  theatres&#13;
are&#13;
meant as an example,&#13;
based&#13;
on&#13;
my&#13;
knowledge, Irom on' studentto&#13;
an&#13;

Illlli&#13;

don't expect them&#13;

this&#13;

Comedy is a good example&#13;
be-&#13;
cause virtually nothing,  other  than&#13;
Woody  Allen's  films,  has  come&#13;
along in this genre since the forties&#13;
that  even  smacks  of  innovation.&#13;
Every jest, trick or comic personal-&#13;
ity is a throwback  to some style al-&#13;
ready performed  better  by a past&#13;
comic.  Richard  Pryor  is a funny&#13;
man,  but in no way compares  to&#13;
Charles Chaplin as far as innovation&#13;
in  the  field  is  concerned.   Leon&#13;
Errol  was a funny  man  too,  but&#13;
now,  thirty  odd  years  afler  his&#13;
death, nobody but those who were&#13;
around when he was active remem-&#13;
ber  him.  His  popularity  matched&#13;
Pryor's  in his time,  but he added&#13;
nothing to the genre of screen&#13;
corn-&#13;
edy other than the fact that he was&#13;
lunny.&#13;
Well actually somebody  did ask&#13;
me. In fact a lot of people  have&#13;
been asking me how I go about rat-&#13;
ing&#13;
films&#13;
when doing movie reviews&#13;
in The Ranger.  Allow me  to ex-&#13;
plain, please.&#13;
First  of all, a film  review,  no&#13;
matter&#13;
how&#13;
informed the critic may&#13;
be,&#13;
is still just somebody's opinion.&#13;
In&#13;
order  to  give  impressions  or&#13;
opinions on any subject  the critic&#13;
must have an understanding  of the&#13;
subject  being analyzed.  As far as&#13;
I'm concerned,&#13;
I&#13;
have seen virtually&#13;
every major film made before&#13;
1970&#13;
and&#13;
a&#13;
good portion  of the  minor&#13;
works as well. After&#13;
1970&#13;
I have&#13;
seen roughly seventy percent of the&#13;
major releases.&#13;
When reviewing  a film,  I&#13;
will&#13;
look at how well it is scripted,  di-&#13;
rected, acted, its production values,&#13;
whether it seems to be the type of&#13;
picture  that  will live on or date&#13;
badly, and how it&#13;
fits&#13;
in comparison&#13;
to other&#13;
films&#13;
of its genre.&#13;
This is the  important  element,&#13;
the element  of comparison.  Some-&#13;
body who&#13;
calls&#13;
"Dirty  Harry"  a&#13;
good detective drama may not have&#13;
seen  "Angels  With Dirty  Faces,"&#13;
"Double Indemnity,"  or "G-Men."&#13;
How does  a film  like  "Grease"&#13;
look? To third graders it might look&#13;
wonderful,  but when compared  to&#13;
every musical  ever made,  if "Sin-&#13;
gin' in the Rain"  is a four or five&#13;
star product, "Grease"  emerges  as&#13;
Ex-Bowling Club Member&#13;
Ed J Walek&#13;
III&#13;
Sno' joking  matter&#13;
there I sat, not a house in sight, in&#13;
the middle of the road with my car&#13;
buried  in&#13;
a&#13;
snow bank because&#13;
I&#13;
needed to get to class. To make a&#13;
long story short,&#13;
I&#13;
did not make it&#13;
to my classes and ended up paying&#13;
$50&#13;
to get&#13;
my&#13;
car home.&#13;
It&#13;
is ridiculous  for the  admin-&#13;
istration  to  make  students  take&#13;
their lives in their hands to make&#13;
class because school is open.&#13;
I&#13;
don't&#13;
know il the Chancellor  is able to&#13;
walk. to school, but&#13;
I&#13;
am not. Like&#13;
many others, I live more than five&#13;
miles  from school and&#13;
I&#13;
have to&#13;
drive because&#13;
I&#13;
do not live near a&#13;
bus route.&#13;
It&#13;
is unfair to us who live&#13;
out in the county to deny us the&#13;
chance to come to class because the&#13;
roads are impassible. I am sure that&#13;
a lot of the city students  did not&#13;
make it to school either. When the&#13;
roads are as bad&#13;
as&#13;
they were last&#13;
Tuesday,  even  Parkside   should&#13;
have been closed. To me it shows&#13;
an  unfeeling  administration   who&#13;
believes that education  comes&#13;
be-&#13;
fore the student's  lives.&#13;
Barbara ADn Johnson&#13;
To the Editor:&#13;
It is hard to believe that Chancel-&#13;
lor Guskin could do this to us. On&#13;
Tuesday of last week I got up as&#13;
usual to come to school.&#13;
I&#13;
listened&#13;
to the weather  report  to check on&#13;
school  closings  because  of  the&#13;
snowing and drifting. When&#13;
I&#13;
heard&#13;
that&#13;
all&#13;
the area schools were&#13;
clos-&#13;
ed except for the Kenosha Unified&#13;
and Parkside I decided that I would&#13;
try to get to classes as usual.&#13;
I&#13;
re-&#13;
ceived a phone call very early in-&#13;
forming&#13;
me that one of my classes&#13;
had been  canceUed, but  that  did&#13;
not deter me.&#13;
I&#13;
felt that if&#13;
I&#13;
waited&#13;
until&#13;
9&#13;
a.m.  the  roads  would  be&#13;
plowed and&#13;
I&#13;
would have no prob-&#13;
lem getting&#13;
to&#13;
my other  classes.&#13;
What a joke. Just because Parkside&#13;
is&#13;
open doesn't mean the roads are&#13;
open.&#13;
f started out for school and I was&#13;
lucky -  I got three miles from my&#13;
house before&#13;
I&#13;
got stuck. in a mon-&#13;
ster of a snow drift.&#13;
I&#13;
found out&#13;
later that many others were not&#13;
SO&#13;
lucky,&#13;
they only made it a block or&#13;
two  before  getting  stuck!  Well,&#13;
A&#13;
critic's  purpose  is' to give&#13;
im-&#13;
pressions&#13;
'and&#13;
opinions based on his&#13;
or her  knowledge  of the  subject.&#13;
When&#13;
I&#13;
review movies&#13;
I&#13;
base it on&#13;
studies conducted  as a hobby since&#13;
childhood which include several ar- .&#13;
ticles&#13;
I&#13;
have  written  for  cinema&#13;
