Answer: Computer Fair 9. Even though one vendor didn't show at the fair, there were plenty of other attractions. Colortron Computers from Racine showed off MacOffice, a local area network for the Macintosh. Several clean-cut IBM reps came down from Milwaukee with a PC-AT in a clear plastic case and a new flat panel display screen. And Hewlett- Packard was showing their Thinkjet printer, a $400, near-letter-quality printer about the size and weight of the Milwaukee Consumer Yellow Pages. There was also Parkside's segment of the International Computer Problem Solving Contest, which is held worldwide but coordinated by Professor Don Piele, who started it. The awards, given to elementary, junior and senior high school students from around the state, were presented by Piele and Thomas Smedinghoff, the keynote speaker, shortly before Smedinghoff spoke to a packed lecture hall. Smedinghoff, a Chicago attorney who specializes in software piracy, titled his address "Software Piracy and the Law," a subject he said is "a real hot topic." It is estimated that half the software in use is pirated. For the $50 billion software industry that translates into a substantial loss of revenue. And many people do not realize they are doing anything wrong. The lines have been drawn between programmers who wish to protect their revenues and users who don't want to pay high prices for software. A relatively small amount of software is pirated by people who want to resell either the software or the ideas in the software. "A lot of people view that as a challenging activity that is essentially harmless," he said. "A lot of other people get very upset about Vietnam survey Results not surprising by Kari Dixon "The statistics in the Vietnam survey did not really surprise me," said Mary-Etta Bublitz, a student in Oliver Hayward's Vietnam class, who circulated an opinion survey among the Vietnam veterans at Parkside. "What did surprise me was how seriously people took it. No matter where you are politically, the wounds are very deep." Bublitz will use the statistics that she gathered for a couple of research projects. She finds the Vietnam class very interesting, because during the 1960's she was an antiwar protester around the San Francisco Bay area in California. She was involved in several marches, had her skull fractured and was visited by the FBI. The class, she said, has changed the way she feels about the war. "This class has affected me more than any other class," she said. "I am just beginning to understand the depth and intensity of feeling that exists about the war." Bublitz said that during the war, she was a pacifist and blamed the soldiers for what was happening. "I have changed. I no longer believe that all war is wrong," she said. "And I have just begun to understand the plight of the vets." The anti-war movement was exciting, she continued, but she eventually became disillusioned with it. "The movement called attention to some of the changes that needed to be made, but when I really looked at the idea of revolution, it wasn't realistic." Bublitz said the type of movement that existed during the 60's can draw attention to serious problems, but that martyrs are not really necessary. "We need the far left and the far right — otherwise how can you tell where the middle is?" she said. The country needs to listen to the Vietnam veterans," she said. "The only way these guys are going to get well is if someone listens to them. The problem is that the only ones who really understand them are other vets, and only a handful of them are well enough to help. How can a handful help thousands? Bublitz said she is no longer a member of the radical left. "It was Continued on page 2 that." "It's perceived as something everybody's doing," he said and added that one of the best ways to protect software is through copyright laws. But the standard copyright laws are not well adapted to protecting software, he said, mostly because a program is not a physical entity; it is rather a group of electrical impulses. Most states, though, are moving to correct that situation. Also federal criminal laws for software piracy are being stiffened, he said. Piracy is a misdemeanor, but legislation to make it a felony is pending. Wisconsin has passed laws which provide stiffer penalties for pirates. Those laws make it illegal to disclose restricted access codes, modify or destroy computer programs or data and to take posession of programs or data without the owner's permission. Smedinghoff said Wisconsin's law is typical of the law in most states which have piracy statutes. Catch-up stagnates by Pat Hensiak Campus News Editor Governor Anthony Earl has endorsed the proposal to grant the faculty catch-up pay of 15 percent to Madison, 12 percent to Milwaukee and 10 percent to the cluster schools like Parkside. However, the issue of Academic staff catch-up is still up ir| the air. The plan proposed early last week by head of the Select Committee studying the UW-System, Tom Loftus, called for the putting the potential catch-up for academic staff aside and requesting further justification for the distribution of the catch-up. According to Stuart Rubner, Director of Community Student Services, "Loftus is saying we need to make more clear the need for catch-up. I believe he stated that the salary study report could bear no scrutiny, and that putting the money in escrow until a more defensible case can be built would be issue for staff one suggestion." Rubner then pointed out that a later development does not make the Loftus proposal seem like as much of a problem. Secretary of the Department of Employee Relations (DER) Howard Fuller, in a letter to Loftus, stated, "There is no justification for extending the catch-up principle beyond the three categories that were targeted in the Board of Regents proposal." The original three categories included librarians, lecturers and research people, or those involved in the academic function of instructing students. Fuller points out in his document that extending catch-up raises to all academic staff is of concern to the DER for several reasons. Fuller questions whether or not many of the academic staff do not perform similar or identical work to their counterparts, classified staff. If the entire academic staff were to receive catch-up raises, the Continued on page 9 Veterans' benefits hard to get by Pat Hensiak Community News Editor At Parkside and many other schools in the UW-system, veterans have been having trouble in getting their entitled benefits. According to Stuart Rubner, Director of Community Student Services, "The problem seems to be coming from a federal level and not within the schools themselves. We were audited just last week and there was 'no problem at all with our paper work." Parkside Student Government Association (PSGA) Senator Susan Walborn said, "At this point there are 12 veterans who are having trouble getting their benefits at the federal level. The concern here is that the vets will be forced out of school because they have no money to take care of expenses. We don't want to lose continuing students with that kind of potential, but the money they're losing is money they live on. We would like to see any vets who are having a problem getting their money stop down to Community Student Services and let them know. We can't help in any way if we don't know there's a problem." Rubner pointed out that Parkside sends in a lot of certification. "We rely a lot on the vets to come here themselves and tell us they're vets, and to come and tell us if they're having a problem. When they do come in with a problem, we ask them to come back in a couple of days and we'll try to have some answers for them by then. "Part of the problem," continued Rubner, "is that the V.A. (Veterans Administration) in Milwaukee has to handle all the requests, survivor benefits, social security, disability, education... It goes through that office and they have been cut a lot in terms of staffing." Nick Rott, the official liason from the V.A. office for Parkside said, "I wasn't aware that there was a problem. The last thing we want to do is to stop a vets from getting their benefits. There can be circumstances when some vets aren't getting checks, but if that's the case then they should see the person who handles that on their campus." Rubner said, "It's frustrating all the way around. Some vets opt for early payment, but then it's just that much longer until they get their next check. If the V.A. would just retain better records and cut the processing time down. Sometimes when a vet comes in, we'll call to find that a file has been lost, so we'll start to process a new one, but by the next day we get a call saying the file has been found. Then it still takes another 7 to 10 days before the vet starts to get benefits. "The Bursar here has been great. If she knows the student is a vet waiting on benefits, then she understands the late tuition, but the vet is still living on virtually nothing. Maybe there's a way to set up some kind of veterans loan fund through the financial aid office, something that's there just for the vets. That could create more paper work, but if that will help them to stay in school and let the V.A. run through their process, then it seems like an issue worth exploring." John Ziolkowski, the Veterans worker in CSS commented that, "It may be even more effective to start up the Veteran's Club again, then maybe we can be seen as a group dealing with the problems and hassles of benefits instead of a lot of different individuals working at different levels. We need to gain our own support." 2 Thursday, May 2,1985 RANGER Opinion War lingers for vets by Kari Dixon Tuesday marked the tenth anniversary of the Communist takeover of the city of Saigon in South Vietnam. The war of which this event is the culmination is to me a series of ambiguous images... Cambodian children on NBC news... soldiers walking off the plane after they came home... guerilla warefare and grass huts... and the Nixon/ McGovern election. I was 11 years old when Saigon fell, and I remember feeling a naive sense of relief because "the war was over." Now, ten years later, I realize that the end of the war, like its unconstitutional beginning, is still ambiguous. For many, the war rages on. It is imperative that my generation understand and remember the decade of the 60's and especially the war itself. Unfortunately, the recent polls being taken in high schools and colleges indicate this is not happening. It may be easier to' pretend the 60's never happened, but that does not erase the pain, turmoil, death and destruction that occurred. The Vietnam War, to me, is something that never should have happened. Everybody lost, and nobody won. For the first time I have come to understand how much the government of thi s country can dictate the content and direction of people's lives. A report earlier this week said that the publicity about the fall of Saigon has prompted large numbers of vets to seek help. That is because they are the walking wounded. The Vietnam veterans are a new breed of American soldiers. They were forced to fight a war for a country that did not want a war. They were forced to choose between possible death or unyielding patriotism. And, they were brought home too quickly to a country that did not welcome them and did not want them. Their battles did not end ten years ago. There is no way that what has happened can be undone. The war was an unnecessary disaster, and the senseless destruction and death, like at Watts and Kent State, did happen. What must be done now is simple. We have to examine the past, and avoid these situations in the future. We need to be damned sure what we are doing when we involve ourselves in the affairs of other countries. And, social movements need to choose leaders and strategies very, very carefully. The only way to honor) those who died during that time is to continue to fight for the kind of country they wanted. Whether they died in Vietnam or at Kent State, they died for what they wanted this country to be. It is up to us, the next generation, to attempt to attain their goals, and at the same time try to help those who came back from the war, alive but not whole. And buttons saying "El Salvador is Spanish for Vietnam" are not making those ideals any easier or more feasible to achieve. Letter to the Editor Faith healing false To the Editor: I would like to respond to the letter from Tom Hathoot. Many people have died as a result of their faith in God. As a former student of religions, I can testify to the false nature of faith healing. I will not go into the arguments as I would not convince you anyway, and educated people aren't likely to believe you. But to study Zoroaster is to realize that Christ was not the first son of God and to study Mythology is to realize that the Polytheistic Religions had the same purpose as Christianity. When you shut your mind to facts and rely on faith, altering the facts to suit your reality, it's best to be on the receiving end of the passed hat. I lived by claiming Bible promises for three years. Other people supported my work of obtaining Bibles in foreign languages for people who didn't read English. But this type of panhandling works with or without leaning on the Bible, as I lived for five years by working scams from Seattle to St. Thomas V.I. that had nothing to do with God. The faith ones are better because the marks won't testify against you in court, at least they aren't apt to. There is usually less money in the faith ones unless you see your message bounced off a satellite. But then again we can't all be a "Yellow Kid" ( the "Yellow Kid" was the nickname given to the man voted King of Con, who on his 100th birthday was able to say "I've never worked a day in my life.")

HOW TIME FLIES WHEN YOU'RE , Vietnam survey discussed Continued from page 1 exciting, and I was a rabble-rouser, and we seemed to need a way to express our discontent directly," she continued. "There really wasn't much of a choice between Nixon and Humphrey, and there was the frustration at the death of the Black Panthers in California, Bobby Kennedy, Malcolm X and Martin Luther King. We felt like we had to do something." Despite her change in attitude toward the war and the anti-war movement, Bublitz still believes that history can teach us things. "If you don't think and learn, and remember the past, it's going to happen all over again," she said. "I decided now maybe it was time for me to learn about Vietnam."

About a week after students were maced while protesting CIA recruiting on campus, the capitol hosted two back-to-back protests last Wednesday. Both demonstrations were party of an anti-apartheid protest in which about 800 students boycotted classes and protested the state's investment in companies that do business in South Africa. During the afternoon, about 100 students occupied the governor's conference room for 4 ¥2 hou rs, but left after the Gov. Anthony Earl made a statement condemning apartheid in South Africa. The 200 protesters occupied the capitol rotunda Wednesday evening. The protesters were in a festive mood. Some played cards, while others danced, chatted or relaxed. Capitol Police Chief Robert Hemele said he had hoped the afternoon group could limit themselves to 50 people, both to minimize the possibility of damage and "getting the building back so we can function." Aspin wants defense shift Les Aspin, who has been walking a tightrope on defense issues since he became chairman of the House Armed Services Committee last January, last week challenged fellow Democrats to "stop playing the 'Doctor No' of the defense debate," Time magazine reported. In a speech that attracted considerable attention, Aspin told the Coalition for a Democratic Majority, "If Democrats want to spend the rest of their careers writing op-ed pieces and giving lectures at universities, then we can continue to stroke our antidefense image. But if we want to make defense policy in the White House and the Pentagon, then we had better stand for something." Aspin said the party should point to some areas that need increased military spending, and should construct a positive defense policy around issues like Pentagon reform. Capitol target of protests UW-Milwaukee could become the first university in the country to ban ROTC activities on campus, in an attempt to resolve the school's non-discrimination policy toward homosexuals with the Army's admitted anti-gay policies, the UW-M Post reported. The UW-M faculty senate voted 32-7 several weeks ago to stop ROTC activities on the campus. The decision must be approved by Chancellor Frank Horton. There are currently 150 students in the program. They will be allowed to finish, but the ban calls for a halt to all ROTC activities by 1988. Lt. Col Cliff MacDonald, head of UW-M's military science department, said the decision would remove many opportunities for UW-M students. "I'm not convinced what the faculty senate did was in the best interest of the university,""he said. 3 inursaay, May 2, iy»5 Celebration Cinco de Mayo important "Cinco de Mayo is an important event for all students because it helps them become enriched in different cultures," said Carmen Acosta, member of the Cinco de Mayo Committee. The Cinco de Mayo celebration dates back to the 19th Century Mexican-French War when, on May 5, 1862, a famous Mexican general and his heavily outnumbered troops repulsed the French for several days at Pueblo. The Mexican army lost that battle, but eventually led Mexico to its independence from France. The Cinco de Mayo Committee planned many events this week to celebrate Mexico's independence. The celebration culminates tomorrow night, Friday, May 3. The Folkloric Latino, a dance troupe from Milwaukee will perform from 7-8p.m. in Union Square. Children will have the opportunity to take a swing at a pinata filled with Spanish candies in the Union Bazaar at 8 p.m. A da nce will be held in Union Square until 1 a.m. featuring the music of Villa Fuerta. This is the second year that Parkside has hosted this celebration. "Hispanic students have been very passive but we want them to' start voicing their opinions and become more active on campus," said Jose Anaya, chairman of the committee. "It helps to celebrate these holidays, including National Hispanic Week, which is the third week in September. Hopefully there is a lot more to come, "said Jesus Alvarado, committee member. "Personally, I want the public to see the positive aspects of Mexico - a beautiful culture with a beautiful history," said Juana Cortez, committee member. The event is open to the public and has been well received by the community. "I believe everyone we've contacted has been very enthusiastic about the event. People from Milwaukee, Waukegan, Racine and Kenosha are involved. The community is glad to see Hispanic students participating in this celebration," said Anaya. The committe encourages all to attend tomorrow night's event and TODOS ESTAN BIEN VENIDOS!

The proposal was strongly supported by t he United Council of the University of Wisconsin Student Governments, the state student lobbying organization representing students on 23 of the 26 UW-System campuses. "It looks like students may finally have the input they deserve as major financial contributors to higher education," said United Council president Scott Dacey. "We commend the members of the assembly for recognizing the value of direct student involvement in educational policy decisions," he said. The bill, AB 53, introduced by Rep. David Clarenbach (D-Madison), directed the governor to appoint a full-time UW-System student to a two-year term on the Board of Regents. Senate consideration began yesterday with a hearing before the Education and Government Operations Committee. If t he senate passes the measure, Gov. Anthony Earl has said he will sign the legislation into law. Parkside Union Kemper recalls the changes Library book sale held The Library/Learning Center will hold a book sale on May 7, 8 and 9 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. outside the entrance of the Library on Level 1. Approximately 1,000 books covering a variety of subjects will be included. Most hardcover books will sell for $1 and paperbacks for 25 cents. There will also be a silent auction for several special sets of books. These books have accumulated over a period of time and consist of duplicates, discards and gift items not needed for the library collection, according to Hannelore B. Rader, Director of the Library/ Learning Center. Neubauer speaks here Jeff Neubauer (D-Racine) will discuss his recent trip to Nicaragua, his impressions and his ideas for alternate solutions to regional problems. His speech will be held on May 7 in Moln D137, f rom 3:30 to 5:30. by Julie Pendleton "Parkside has the potential of becoming a much better place," said Jack Kemper, a senior Geology major. Kemper will be completing his fifth and final year at Parkside in May. "I've had a good experience here," said Kemper, "but things have changed." According to Kemper, five years ago students were more willing to get involved. In the last few years, that involvement has slackened noticeably. Kemper admits that it is difficult for students to see Parkside as a "real" college, because it plays such a minor role in the majority of students' lives. Students here have homes to go to, jobs, friends and family. However, as a bartender at the Union, Kemper hears first hand the many complaints students have about Parkside. He feels that if s tudents are going to complain, they should be willing to do something about it. If they're not willing to do something, then they shouldn't complain. "What people don't seem to realize is that there is a lot of opportunity to get involved," said Kemper. "The inDut of one student can make a big difference."

BUSINESS MANAGER • DISTRIBUTION MANAGER Requirements: UW-Parkside student in good standing carrying at least 6 credits per semester. Qualifications: Previous newspaper experience preferred. All positions are paid Applications available in the Ranger office D139C Jack Kemper at the Union Square bar ment does not necessarily require a major time commitment. Kemper feels that if students would spend just one hour a week getting involved, either officially or just sticking around to have fun, the atmosphere on campus would change considerably. Since Kemper has worked as a bartender since the first week of his freshman year, he is especially attached to the Union. "It's just not a fun place anymore," admitted Kemper. "What students don't seem to realize is that they pay for the majority of the Union's upkeep through segregated student fees. It's their Union. They should take advantage of it." Kemper believes the Union is more than just a place to get together and drink. "The Union is a gathering point at the University. A lot of things happen here. It's a place to meet with your friends, make new friends, get to know your professors, and, most of a ll, a place to have fun." Another concern of Kemper's is The End. It used to be that The End was the biggest event of the year. Now attendance is down considerably compared with a few years ago. Kemper feels that it's important to be part of this yearend bash. "It's the perfect opportunity for students to be a part of Parkside," said Kemper. "I've heard enough complaints about how boring Parkside is. If that's the way students feel, they should do something about it. You only get what you're willing to give." When asked why it matters to him what happens at Parkside when he leaves, Kemper replied, 'I care. You can't spend as much time here as I have and not become attached to the place. It would be nice if the upcoming students were able to come to a place that is close to realizing its potential." Kemper will be continuing his education at graduate school in South Dakota at the School of Mines and Technology.

CSA Director Nancy Schroeder said the new policy is part of a new record keeping procedure. When students bring their books to the buy-back counter, they will be given a voucher, not cash, which can then be redeemed for cash at the Bookstore on Level 1. Schroeder said this policy was adopted by CSA fo r all their bookstores. Schroeder and Campus Security also urge students to be especially alert for book bandits — people who steal books and then sell them. She said that this is the time of year when many book bandits strike.

Most major papers, including the New York Times, the Milwaukee Journal and the Chicago Tribune, as well as the three major television networks, have looked at the war in retrospect. In order to attempt to inform its readers, and possibly make the event and its ramifications more understandable, the Ranger has interviewed various individuals who played different parts in the drama known as the - Vietnam War. which we have now begun to see." Hayward has taught the course twice, and has had 40 members in each section. This, he says, is very good for an upper level political science course. The text that is used is "Vietnam: A History," on which the public television series was based. "It was difficult to find good texts, and I was reluctant to teach something too close in time to when it happened," he said. "But now there have been eight or ten years, and things are being sorted out." Hayward on 'Nam "The country is still making up its mind about the Vietnam war," said Oliver Hayward, history lecturer, who teaches a class on the subject. "It was necessary to let some time pass, cool down, and get some new and objective information, Hayward said that teaching the cla3s is interesting because it covers the entire spectrum of age and political ideology. During the semester he has had veterans in to talk with the class, and their experiences have been educational. "I have really learned a lot from the vets," Hayward said. "Their stories have been very powerful, and the support network groups for helping them work through their problems are getting better." The problems of the vets are many and complex, according to Hayward. The post-traumatic stress disorder (PST) seen in previous wars is the most pervasive and severe with the Vietnam veteran. "There are some guys who are just developing it now, ten years after," he said. "Can you imagine storing all that up for ten years?" The veterans have told Hayward that they never really feel comfortable unless they are with other veterans. The reason veterans are having problems never seen before is due in part to the fact that Vietnam was a new kind of war, Hayward said. "Combat soldiers were rotated in individually rather than in units, and this made the soldiers already over there suspicious and hostile to newcomers," he said. "For the most part the soldiers were isolated and any advantages from being in a military unit were lost." Another problem, Hayward continued, was that the soldiers would leave Saigon and be home in 24 hours. They had little or no time to START UP WITH LESS DOWN.

"They returned to a largely indifferent America, with no pats on the back, no ticker-tape parades, and this contributed to their difficulties in coping," he said. The anti-war movement, Hayward is convinced, did help to get the US out of the war. He said that the success of the movement was proportional to its necessity, and when it was no longer needed, it died down. "The movement could have been more effective," he said. "It could have used more restraint; there was some violence that was counter-productive. Its job was to convince the average American that the war was wrong. "The fact that we are a country where that kind of movement could occur made me believe that America really does work," he continued. Militarily, Vietnam taught us the importance of mobility, Hayward added, and indicated a need for more counter-insurgency or jungle combat training. "Militarily, this was was not the humiliation it has been described as. We learned the importance of firepower, and many units fought well," he said. "Militarily, we won the war." Hayward said that it is dangerous to draw oversimplifcations from history, and that one has to be careful how one uses it. "The current debate is healthy. If we use careful reasoning, what happened there might affect other involvements," he said, "but that is not a one-toone correlation. Each situation has to be looked at separately." Hayward said that those in his class who are too young to remember much about Vietnam have the interest, but not a lot of knowledge. "That's why I think this course is a good thing to teach," he said.

RANGER 7 Thursday, May z, 1985 rough it, trying to live beyond it War Memorial was too late by Kari Dixon The Vietnam Memorial in Washington D.C. and the recent publicity surrounding the tenth anniversary of th e fall of Saigon are attempts by the American people to "further understand what happened," according to George Werve, a Vietnam veteran in Oliver Hayward's class on Vietnam. "But, if the people who made war had to fight it, there would be no more war," he said. Werve had just graduated from Dominican College in Racine when he was drafted. He served in a division that was stationed in the northern part of South Vietnam at a military base at Chu Lai from 1969 to 1970. "The people over there were more concerned about their day-today survival — whether they had enough to eat — instead of whether or not they could vote," he said. "The GI's who were over there were concerned with what they had to do to survive their tours." The most serious misconceptions ihat Americans have about the war, according to Werve, are the ideas that the individual soldiers were to blame, and that they wanted to be over there. "The American public perceived the individual soldier as part of government policy and that is an unfair attitude," he said. "A lot of guys who were over there didn't want to be there; most of us were assigned there." Werve said that the change from military to civilian life was done very quickly. "I left Vietnam on Wednesday^ and at 1:30 Friday I. was watching a Cubs game," he said. "People didn't know how to react when you first came home; they were very cautious in what they said, but I had a very supportive family." The soldiers watched the efforts of th e anti-war movement on television, and read about it in the papers, while they were in Vietnam. "It certainly was very easy to condemn soldiers going off to war when you were sitting in the comfort of your own living room," he said. The fact that the soldiers were not greeted warmly when they returned did not surprise him either. "The war was so unpopular that there was no reason for them to welcome us home," he said. But the soldiers in Vietnam were no different than anyone else, he said. They had families, feelings, needs, just like everyone else. "Many vets couldn't or wouldn't talk about it because it often brought contempt," he said. Werve is taking Hayward's class, without credit, because he wants to understand the scope of the war that he fought in. "I took the course because I am trying to find the objective truth about Vietnam," he said. "The scope is so much broader than anyone could see at the time." Like Werve, Paul Johnson, former vice-president of PSGA and president of the Veterans Club, is a Vietnam combat veteran. He was already in the military when he was assigned as a field combat specialist cook and sent to serve outside Da- Nang. Cooking became second priority, because he was sent out on manuevers. "We lived from day to day," he said. "You worried about keeping your buddy alive because keeping him alive meant you stayed alive." This need forced the men to become close. "There was a natural bond between us," Johnson said. Johnson feels the United States lost the war. "We got run out with shame: the American soldiers' hands were tied," he said. "If we had been allowed to do our job, the war never would have lasted as long as it did." Remorse was something that Johnson did not feel then, but he feels it now. "Then the Vietnamese were the enemy," he said. "Now I have a lot of remorse for the things I did; we were destroying human life that was probably just as innocent as a child over here would be." The anti-war movement, according to Johnson, didn't really know what was going on in Vietnam because the press printed only one side — the bad side. "The deserters (those who left the United States to avoid the draft) should have been stood up against a wall and shot," he said. Like Werve and most other Vietnam combat veterans, Johnson feels that the transition between combat and civilian life occurred Johnson said that the hardest part of the whole experience was attempting to life as a civilian. "I never adjusted," he said. He is involved in three area groups for Vietnamese veterans, one of which he established in Kenosha. He has health problems due to exposure to areas sprayed with Agent Orange. Like many veterans, he has moved around a lot and will do so again when school ends next month. "Many of us were thankful because we thought we came back whole — we had no loss of limbs and we thought we were OK, but we're not. Anytime another veteran wants to talk, I have the time," Johnson said. The war, according to Johnson, proved that the U.S. was not the world power it thought it was. "We had the idea we were stopping communist oppression," he said. "But when we got back we realized it was to protect the interest of big business. "The War Memorial in Washington is really too little, too late," Johnson concluded. "The U.S. has finally realized that we are the victims." * * ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ END OP SEMESTER SPECIAL 2 For 1 BRATS (with this ad) Lunch Served Daily from 12 to 2 • ••••••••••••• Don't Forget To Try Gilly's Chili •••••••••••••••••• Gilly's On The Square 5200 Washington Ave. 637-4742 Racine ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ Parkside was quiet much too quickly.

"There were some activities — a small band of militant students and some teach-ins — b ut for the most part, the attitude was pretty complacent," said Hayward. Both Harbeson and Hayward went to see Eugene McCarthy (candidate for the Democratic nomination for president in 1968 and one of the anti-war movement's heroes) when he spoke at the two-year center in Racine. "We packed the place. I got to introduce him," said Harbeson. "It (McCarthy's speech) was picked up on national TV." The teach-ins were information sessions that allowed speakers with expertise to share information and answer questions about the war. "Some members of the administration were very nervous about the teach-ins, because they were concerned that what was happening in Madison could happen here," Harbeson said. "The faculty was almost universally opposed to the war," Harbeson continued. "Those who were in favor of it were not real vocal about it." But Hayward said, "There were some who felt that the war was not an issue that should be dealt with on campus." Hayward came to Parkside after attending graduate school in Madison, just prior to the anti-war activities there. Harbeson also attended school at Madison and participated in protest activities while there. But there were no sit-ins, marches or bombings at Parkside. "Even in my classes, students were not attempting to seize the agenda and make Vietnam the issue," Harbeson said. "There was more of a modest consciousness."

It marked the culmination of a long and successful year for the Dramatic Arts Discipline. The four productions of the season at Parkside have left a strong impression on theater in southeastern Wisconsin, while providing those involved with experiences and memories to last a long time. Eighty different characters emerged from the abilities of seventeen different actors. A professional actress accented one show, while another play was directed by a guest professional director. Two of the four shows were presented on the road, and a children's breakfast- /theater was added as an annual feature. Dr. Leon VanDyke, department head, led his students and staff through the year beginning last fall with auditions and ending Saturday night. Skelly Warren designed the sets that were student-built and maintained, while the costumes were created by Judith Tucker- Snider and her crew. The theater itself underwent major technical and Swing choir to perform The Parkside Swing Choir, directed by music professor Steven Powell and choreographed by dance instructor Royanne Cruthers, will perform a concert at 7:30 p.m. on Sunday, May 5 in the Communiction Arts Theater. Tickets, available in the Fine Arts Division Office (Communication Arts Room 221) or at the door, are $1 f or all students, senior citizens and Parkside staff and faculty, and $2 fo r others. The Swing Choir, in its first year, has already made a name for itself with several banquet and conference performances in southeast Wisconsin. This will be the group's first full-length concert at Parkside. The choir performs music from the Broadway stage, vocal jazz a nd various pop standards, all in a choreographed production that promises entertainment for young and old. Pieces include group production numbers such as the New York Medley including "42nd Street" and the theme from "New York, New York;" nostalgia dance numbers like "A Twenties Medley;" light group pieces including "A Salute to Disney" and contemporary pieces like "Dancin' in the Streets." The program also features solo performances by choir members of recent hits by Dan Fogelberg, Kenny Rogers and others. Choir members are Todd Becker, Paul Mitchell, Laura Potenziani, Jean Larsen, Sandi Saladis, Rayann Huth and Missy Weaver. The band features Scott Scheuber on drums, Mike Gudbaur on bass and Ronnie Schaff on keyboards. Powell has worked with and arranged music for swing groups in Michigan, Indiana and Louisiana. His Louisiana group, "The Electones," averaged 30 performances a year in a three-state region and was in constant demand. Cruthers is a frequent dance performer throughout southeast Wisconsin. She has a strong background in show and jazz dance and, Powell said, "has added an exciting dimension to the Parkside Swing Choir program."

"Crimes of the Heart" led the season. With professional actress Carolyn Blackinton and senior students Rebecca Julich and John Miskulin, the department set its pace for the year. The show went on to win a seat in the regional performance of the American College Theater Festival in Madison. At Christmas, Snider directed "Peppermint Bear and the Toy Elves." Fifteen hundred children and adults enjoyed breakfast in the Union cafeteria as they watched Santa, the elves and a huge white bear work their way through a dilemma. The show was trucked and bused to Barrington, 111. for additional performances. "Peppermint Bear" will become an annual show, working not only as a department production, but also as a production/ workshop course offered in the university curriculum. Jonathan Smoots, professional actor/director, came to Parkside in January to direct "The Dining Room." The studio production sold out all performances, including the dress rehearsal, to standing-roomonly audiences. Oliver Goldsmith's "She Stoops to Conquer" returned the department to the main stage of the Comm Arts Theater. Under VanDyke's direction, cast and crew presented classic theater on a proscenium stage. With sets created by sophomore Eric Englander, from designs by Warren, and costumes by Snider and her crew, the 18th-century comedy came to life and took audiences to a time gone by. As the end of the year arrives, the department will be seeing both of its senior students further careers in dramatic arts. Miskulin will be attending graduate school at Southern Methodist University in Dallas. The Actors Theater of Louisville (Ken.) has accepted Julich into its one-year New York showcase program. With the success of its four productions and 100 percent placement of its graduates, the dramatic arts department closes the 1984-85 se ason, looking ahead to next year and four new shows. Ladvhawke * * Costume actioner just fair by Jim Neibaur Feature Editor Costume acticners are a staple of American and British films, and "Ladyhawke" tries to make a dent , in this genre by appealing to a wide crossover of the masses. The problem with this film is that the plotline (a spell causing a man to become a wolf by night while his lover becomes a hawk by day) is a bit trite for seriousminded adults, while the violence in some scenes is a bit too intense for children. Rather than blend for the masses, these elements clash and cancel each other out. Matthew Broderick ("War Games") is the essence of youthful innocence combined with energetic eagerness, allowing him to play heroics along with humor quite effectively. Broderick is another of the many young actors and actresses who are moving into American films in a sort of takeover, rejuvenating old formulas and adding spicy new ones (exemplified in the productions of John Hughes or Rutger Hauer and Matthew Broderick Steven Spielberg). Rutger Hauer ("Blade Runner") is cast as the spell-plagued hero who vows vengeance. He acts with firm assurance, but recites dialogue PARKSIDE FOOD SERVICE Announces STUDY BREAK COFFEE SPECIAL Mon., May 13 Thru Final Exams WLLC Coffee Shoppe Buy a Cup of C offee Get a Coupon Good For A Second Cup of T he Same Size FREE! GOOD LUCK WITH EXAMS with a stiff, rigid feel that spoils his performance. Michelle Pfeiffer ("Scarface," "Into the Night") is the essence of beauty (the costume drama's niche as far as results to battle for are concerned), her acting wavering from breathy innocence to perky exuberance. The best performance comes from old hand Leo McKern, a character actor who's best known as the dour doctor in "The French Lieutenant's Woman." His success in British theater is among acting's most impressive accomplishments. Director/producer Richard Donner ("Superman the Movie," "The Omen") is successful in pacing the film's action, humor, romance and dramatic monologues so they compliment each other, but the abrupt switch from violence to kiddieoriented "Ali Baba"-type dialogue is the feature's ultimate downfall. "Ladyhawke" uses all the cliches, adds a lot of color, mixes it all up into a standard souffle of action and melodramatics spiced with humor and foists it upon the hapless moviegoer, who gets smacked with more marginality than he or she probably cares to see.

"I love it all," said Jackson during a recent interview, stating that he has no preference for any of the different aspects of show business he has worked in. Jackson saw the rise of show business from early childhood through the eyes of one of its first black stars. Joining the ranks of Stepin Fetchit, Mantan Moreland, Willie Best, Lorenz Tucker, Farina Hoskins, Sunshine Sammy Morrison, Butterfly McQueen, Hattie Mc- Daniel and Eddie "Rochester" Anderson as one of the entertainment world's most popular black performers, Jackson experienced the development of performing arts from silent movies to television. "I started out by doing the 'shimmy' in a dance contest," he said. "I would win first prize, which was a box of groceries. That would feed my family all week. Then I'd go back the next week and win first prize again. Those were hard times and that's how we ate." Jackson's prowess on stage attracted movie people, so his family moved to Culver city in hopes of getting Eugene in pictures. After a 'bit' in a Thomas Ince production in which Jackson dove into a pond of water during an action scene, he joined the Our Gang comedies at the Hal Roach studios, replacing Sunshine Sammy Morrison. "I played Farina's older brother," said Jackson. "He was only about four years old at the time. He and I were very close friends. We lost track of each other as time went on, but met up again during the war. "After I left the Our Gang comedies, I appeared in the movie 'Cimarron,' " said Jackson. "That won the Academy Award for best picture in 1931. Then I did a film called "Dixie," which featured an all-colored cast." These all-black films were produced by low budget distributors in Hollywood for theaters in black areas and smaller movie houses in cities that would not permit blacks in commercial theaters. They usually featured most of the well known black performers of the time. Another series Jackson appeared in was called The Harlem Tuff Kids, the black film equivalent of the Dead End Kids adventures. Despite the fact that he didn't always get the meaty roles that young white actors such as Jackie Cooper and Jackie Coogan would get, Jackson does not feel regrets about his career. He balks at his early film work being labeled a bad stereotype of the black race, stating that these roles are just roles, and are never meant to depict an entire group of people. "You remember 'Amos and Andy' years ago? Now that was a great show! There was nothing wrong with it! But the NAACP cut them down." Comedian Mantan Moreland (noted for his role as Birmingham Brown, the chauffeur in the Charlie Chan movies) once said upon being admonished for playing roles that many younger blacks found demeaning to their race, "I'm a comedian. If I'm not afraid of ghosts in my pictures, I wouldn't be very funny. Jimmy Cagney kills people in his pictures, but he doesn't do that in real life!" Jackson added, "It's just a part that you're playing. You're not trying to make fun of any race. Jackson also noted that times have gotten markedly better for black performers in show business since his years in silent movies and early talkies. "There were a lot of great black shows on ten or so years ago," he said. "Then it stopped, but now it's coming back again with Bill Cosby and such." During the forties Jackson was in the army and also appeared in several westerns with Gene Autry. The fifties saw him working with his brothers in a musical act called The Jackson Trio, which played all over the United States. "We played a lot in your area," said Jackson. "Milwaukee, Green Bay, all over Wisconsin." The sixties had Jackson playing Uncle Lou on the hit network series "Julia," which starred Diahann Carroll. "Julia" is considered a milestone in TV, casting a black in a non-stereotypical role. Among his most recent work, Jackson cited the Clint Eastwood feature "Escape from Alcatraz" as a favorite. "Boy that Alcatraz was a spooky place," recalled Jackson. "When they closed that big iron gate it made a noise that went right through my bones. I wouldn't kill a fly to stay in prison. It was terrible! It was nice when we could walk out of there." Jackson continued "There was a big kitchen, and during lunch I would play my saxophone to get everyone in the mood. Clint Eastwood was a real sweet guy, a real nice man to work with." Another notable film Jackson did recently was the TV production "The Day After." "I did my scene (the opening scene) without having read the whole script," he said. "I had no idea what it was about, so I was surprised myself when I saw it." Jackson recently did a spot in a Burger King commercial and states that he would like to work in another television series. He owns a dancing school where his two daughters teach, The New Stage Workshop, located in his hometown of Compton, California. His son, who had a major role in the Jimmy Catch-up pay still an issue Continued from Page 1 adjustment would mean a raise of up to 20 percent for some workers, something Fuller called unjustifiable in terms of classified staff. Finally, Fuller argues that the catch-up plan would "blow the lid off" bargaining, as it would be "extremely difficult to convince unions that money is not available for similar catch-up raises for represented classified employees." Rubner argued against Fuller's thinking, stating "Fuller doesn't realize that everyone in academic staff was put there because they didn't fit anywhere else. Now, when things were getting ready to wrap up, Fuller starts up. Why didn't he bring this up six months ago? This is very draining." NOTICE!

This veteran of show business does not complain about having been oppressed because he is black, nor does he feel that blacks were poorly represented on the screen. He is a happy, talented individual who has been successful in show business for over sixty years. "The white kids might have gotten a few better breaks than me, but in the end I'm the one who survived. I have a beautiful family, my health and I'm looking good. Many of the others are dead." Jackson remains successful with his dance studio and work in movies and on television. His insights into the world of show business are unique in that he is one of the last surviving black entertainers whose career dates back to silent pictures, and one of the few of any race to maintain good health, a happy home life and a show biz career for so many years.

In its thirty-five year history, the industry has repeatedly promised blacks that their lot would be improved, and those promises have just as repeatedly been broken. Even today, when many people dismiss prejudice as a nightmare from a different age, TV maintains its time-worn caricatures in programs like "The Jeffersons" and "Gimme a Break." One man who understands the. innate detriment of this situation is J. Fred MacDonald, professor of1 history at Northeastern Illinois University in Chicago and past president of the Popular Culture Assocation.

"I think we're in a period where racial stereotypes have come back," he explained in a recent interview in his university office. "Sure, they've been stylized, updated and mellowed somewhat; but they're still the same ones America has always found 'lovable;' the Tom, the coon, the mammy and so on. "Just look at Ted Lange (who plays Isaac, the bartender, on 'The Love Boat'). He's a servant. Ultimately, the role he plays is to bring black viewers in and to be a liaison between the boat and any black guests who come aboard. But he's not a major force. Why didn't they make the captain black? Why doesn't Isaac have any responsibility? I mean, he mixes drinks." In addition to traditional servile roles like Lange's and Roger Mosley's on "Magnum P.I.," MacDonald points to the medium's fondness for cute, non-threatening black children — like Gary Coleman of "Diff'rent Strokes" and Emmanuel Lewis of "Webster." "He's the classic pickaninny," MacDonald said of Lewis' character, noting his similarity to Buckwheat and Farina of the "Our Gang" film series. "Why was he given a white family? Why couldn't it have been a black family that adopted him? Why is it somehow superior, if you're black, to live HE Did YLE SPECIAL EXPORT You can travel the world over and never find a better beer. 8 i 8 ON TAP AT UNION SQUARE 8 „ . S with whites? The message that would be delivered to me if I were a black child is that it's better to live in a white family than in a black family." Although he is quick to indict the industry for its failure to project positive, realistic black images, MacDonald doesn't believe that TV's powerbrokers are motivated by malevolence. Instead, he sees the problem as an unfortunate outgrowth of television's status as a business — a business whose chief goal is to make money. "What motivates these guys," he explained earnestly, in reference to network executives, "are bottomline business decisions. Most of them think like this: 'We're playing for one-third of the audience plus, and black viewers aren't that many. The distribution of black viewers is something we can live with — if they come with us or they don't. But we want the white viewer, and we aren't going to get him if we highlight a black person too prominently. We feel that there are still degrees of racism out there, and we don't want to risk all those millions of dollars on pumping up a black guy as a hero when the show's just going to go down the toilet.' "However," he continued with a hint of optimism, "as whites flee free television, because they've got cable or because they can afford video tapes, blacks — who are 12 percent of the population — are going to become a higher percentage of the viewing population, because they can't get cable and can't afford video tapes. When that happens, the smart programmers are going to be the ones who realize they need to have mature representations of blacks in programs because blacks gravitate to watch other blacks." " 'The Cosby Show' is definitely a major step forward," MacDonald said, "and I think its success is going to cause a lot of new thinking. TV is, after all, a copycat industry, and since 'Cosby's' made it,, • • we're going to see more black families and more blacks in prominent roles — and not just the Mr. T images of black animal rage." Yet no matter how swiftly change sets in, Fred MacDonald thinks it's much too long overdue. "White liberal society has always said, 'Just wait. Things are going to get better.' And they never really have. "We saw what it led to in the urban riots of the 1960's. After all, you can only take so many promises — an d all they're really promising is that you're going to get a fair break. And how long can people continue not getting a fair break when the white liberals — who have the power — a re giving them a bunch of rhetoric which hasn't meant anything for 30 y ears? "The bottom line is that we're a society with a deep racist past that has not really been able to shake it. We're still only in the infancy of trying to overcome racism." On TV, as well as in life. Karate Kid • • Final PAB film presentation by Jim Neibaur Feature Editor Noriyuki "Pat" Morita's Oscarwinning performance is the axis of John Avildsen's "The Karate Kid," the movies chosen to close the PAB Post Nasal Strip film presentations for this semester. This Rocky-esque story of inner strength motivated by love was a big box office hit in 1984, the depiction of emotional and physical power being among the film's most impressive elements. Many have reacted to the film more negatively, calling it corn.

RANGEK i i . i nur sua y , may c, l aoo ^ College Media Night. by Raymond G. Novak The Milwaukee Brewers played host on Thursday, April 25 to 120 reporters from 32 c olleges and universities in Wisconsin as part of the Brewers' annual State College Media Night. Media Night gave the students an opportunity to discuss the future of journalism with several members of the team's front office and the chance to take part in a press conference featuring manager George Bamberger and catcher Bill Schroeder. The group was welcomed to Milwaukee by Brewer vice-president of marketing Dick Hackett, who pointed out that the media was very important to the Brewers, because "Fifty percent of our home Students see how the pros do it attendance comes from outside the Milwaukee metro area." After telling the group he hoped they would learn something about the business during the day, Hackett turned the floor over to Tom Skibosh, director of publicity for the Brewers. Also on hand to lend some professional observations and advice on media work were Jim Paschke of WOT-TV6 and Tom Flaherty of the Milwaukee Journal. Both men spent a good deal of time talking about the integrity expected of professional journalists. Paschke agreed journalists should be aggressive, but pointed out, "Be well informed before you're aggressive." The press conference paired Bamberger, a 40-year baseball man, with Schroeder, a young catcher in his first starting season. Bamberger is in his second stint as manager of the Brewers. He left the team after the 1980 season to recover from bypass surgery, but returned to baseball in 1982 as manager of the New York Mets. He resigned after 43 games in 1983, and in September of last year rejoined the Brewers. "What I like best about Milwaukee is it's more down to earth," Bamberger said. "New York is go, go, go. You're in traffic jams all the time. You're fighting people all the time. Everybody seems to be mad at each other. Milwaukee is more relaxed...I kind of like the style here. Go out and have a beer or two and have some fun." Schroeder compared college baseball with the brand played in the minor leagues. "I played three years at Clemson," Schroeder related, "and we won the ACC ( Atlantic Coast Conference) title three years. We had a very good team and good competition. I never was much of a power hitter in college, but I hit for an average of .300. "When I went to Butte (Montana, in the rookie league), I hit for power and I hit .300, so it was kind of a step down to go from Clemson to rookie ball. But then when I went to "A" ball (low professional minor leagues), it was pretty much on a par with my college years." Schroeder also said, "You'll see a lot more guys play in college. I know I learned a lot of baseball under Bill Wilhelm at Clemson." After the press conference, it was up to the field to watch the* Brewers take on the World Champion Detroit Tigers. Detroit built a 7-1 lead, but the Brewers staged a furious comeback and tied the score with two out in the bottom of the ninth. Paul Molitor homered into the left-centerfield seats. After the next three hitters reached base, Ted Simmons hit the first pitch thrown to him over the left field wall for a grand slam* home run and an exciting 11-7 Brewer victory. At some point during the day, Flaherty had said, "People want to read what players say." That might be true, but State College Media Night closed with Simmons' bat doing all the talking for him.

Required MILLER HIGH LIFE ATHLETE OF THE WEEK Chris won his 11th straight singles match this past Saturday at Concordia. His 1985 record is a very impressive 13-1. He has been very consistent all season, and we wish him much good luck in the future. • "" y" : r" " • - ' V RANGER Men's track team 12 Thursday, May 2,1985 Women's trnrk Team takes sixth in meet "It was a chilly day, but the track was good," said women's track coach Mike DeWitt, referring to Saturday's meet at Elmhurst College. Parkside finished sixth out of 11 teams, with a score of 39. The Rangers qualified their 3200- meter relay team for Nationals by winning in 9:19. Runners were Michelle Marter, Karen Jacobsen, Sarah Hiett and Jill Fobair. In the 1600-meter relay, the women broke the school record with a time of 4:03.6. Fobair, Jacobsen, Merri Valukas and Hiett ran. Parkside took third in the 400- meter and sprint medley relays. Karen Savage, Jacqueline Cotton, Valukas and Fobair represented Parkside in the 400-meter and finished in 5:1. Valukas, Marter, Cotton and Savage ran the medley and finished in 1:5. Carol Romano finished sixth in the 1500-meter run with 5:14.4. Laurie Jacusz took third in the javelin with a throw of 85-6. "In the next few weeks we should break some records," said DeWitt. With only Hiett, Marter and Cotton qualified for individual events at Nationals, breaking school records may not be enough. Next week the team will travel to West Lafayette to compete in the Purdue meet. "It was a real good meet," said men's track coach Lucian Rosa, referring to the Drake Relays in Des Moines, Iowa. "They (the team) know they can run well." And the Rangers did run well in the two relays in which they participated. Parkside broke the school record in the distance medley, shearing 16.06 from the old record. Dan Stublaski ran the 1200-meter heat in 3: 6.4, Fred Knoch ran the 400-meter in 5:1.6, Rich Miller ran the 800- meter heat in 1:54.5 and Tim Renzelmann ran his 1600-meter heat in 4:15.7. Those times earned "personal bests" for Stublaski and Miller and a seventh place (out of 16 teams) finish for the team. The next relay was the 4 b y 1600 meter, in which the Rangers were only 1:5 off the school record. Stublaski had his best mile in 4:14.75. Miller ran in 4:30.3, Dan Peterson in 4:23.4 and Renzelmann in 4:17.5. Renzelmann, Ted Miller, Andy Kaestner and Mike Rohl are qualified for Nationals. Rosa is optimistic about Stublaski, Rich Miller, John Anderson, Andy Serrano and Peterson also becoming qualified. Judy McKinney trying to pass Green Bay's player in last Monday's game. Rangers defeat Green Bay "I think we'll go all the way to Nationals," said softball coach Linda Draft, "with the way we're playing now: clean defense, strong , batting and we're executing the bunts." If winning the sub-district against Green Bay last Monday, April 29 is any indication, the Rangers will go all the way. Parkside won the double- header against the Phoenix 8-0 and 2-1. Parkside's Michele Martino pitched the first game. Martino gave up three hits and struck out two batters. She was relieved by freshman Julie Gaestel in the seventh inning. Gaestel gave up one hit, one walk and struck out one batter. Lea Hammen was two for three, driving in two runs. Patti Mueller and Martino were two for four. "Green Bay committed a lot of fielding errors," said Draft. "Ever since the Whitewater Tournament, we've been playing clean defense. The umpire took two runs away from us at the plate," she added. Green Bay's only run in the second game came in the first inning. Parkside earned its two runs in the Triathlon set The third annual Racine on the Lake Triathlon will be held on Sunday, August 18, 1985 and will encompass both the north and south ends of the Lake Michigan shoreline in Racine. Applications are now being accepted for the full distance triathlon and the "Try-A-Tri," which is new this year. The full distance triathlon will consist of a half-mile swim, a 25- mile bike race and a 6.2 mile run. The "Try-A-Tri," designed for those who have limited training time or first-time triathletes, will consist of a quarter-mile swim, an 11-mile bike race and a 3 mile run. Entry is $30 for the full triathlon and $20 for the "Try-A-Tri." Late entry (after August 9) is $35 and $25 respectively. The first 500 applicants will be guaranteed a spot. May 10, 11 and 12 will be the bidistrict playoffs. If the Rangers defeat Superior on Wednesday, they will travel to Minnesota State to participate in these playoffs. If Parkside wins, the team will travel to Indianapolis for the National Tournament. second inning.
