UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document Minority rally heightens campus awareness by Kelly McKissick News Editor "How many students have to pass through the system before we have something in place to address and deal with these problems? We felt the time to move was now," Jay Lewandowski, PSGA (Parkside Student Government Association) president said at a rally for Minority Issues on Wednesday, April 27. PSGA recently formed the Minority Action Council in response to the distribution of racis't literature on the UWMilwaukee and Marquette campuses, racists actions on other campuses in Wisconsin, the response of Parkside minority students to a recent survey and UW System President Kenneth Shaw's proposal, "Design for Diversity," according to a press release. The Council's purpose, as defined in the PSGA Senate Bill, is "to formulate, set and monitor the effectiveness of all policies pertaining to minority students attending the University of Wisconsin-Parkside." Over 100 students attended the rally to listen to Chancellor Sheila Kaplan, Assistant Chancellor of Student Affairs G. Gary Grace, United Council Minority Affairs Director Don Parker, PSGA President Jay Lewandowski and Special Programs Coordinator Jesse Hargrove speak about minority issues. Parker spoke first, opening "That I have black skin should not be my qualification for obtaiing an education that I deserve." -Don Parker with " I think the theme or topic we can address at this rally is that it's bringing awareness to the issue (of minority needs and discrimination) before an incident like what happened at UW-M.il- A strong, final reminder: be careful at The End. Don Blazavier, who donated signs, assists Hall Council President George Koenig in hanging the reminders at the housing exits. waukee, Marquette or UWMadison precipitates and grows and becomes ugly." He was referring to the distribution of racist materials at these campuses. He explained that racism is "a problem that is growing, is very serious in nature, and affects every one of us. I believe through education and working together we can stop segregating ourselves." Parker stressed the issue of minority education, saying that it has been an issue that has been addressed in the UWsystem over the past ten years through a variety of groups, reports, proposals and plans, "yet the number of minorities entering the UW system has remained the same over the past couple of years in relationship to the total student population." He feels that the real problem is in minority retention. "For instance, at the UW-Milwaukee campus, eight out of every ten students are not going to graduate in the fouryear undergraduate track. That seems to suggest that the problem of minority recruitment and retention is a very important issue." He mentioned a cartoon printed in the UW-Eau Claire student newspaper, in which two white students were covering themselves with a black substance and saying that they could now get free tuition because they were black. "I think that any normal- thinking person would know that it would be an economic waste to throw money at a person who is not going to be able to achieve or obtain an education that's going to benefit them and society as a whole," he said. "We need to take into account that there are certain social and economical barriers that keep the minority students in the subclass as they are classified. Those barriers are what keep the minorities away from the educational opportunities that the other students have," Parker commented. He feels that a mechanism needs to built up that will "bring all students up to the same level." Chancellor Kaplan stated that measures have been taken by Parkside "to do a substantially better job of serving minority students" during her past 16 months as Chancellor. She said that scholarships have been an issue as well, although, "there is never enough money." Kaplan explained that during the past year, Parkside has been or- Don Parker, United Council Minority Affairs the gathering at the rally for Minority Issues 27. ganizing to do some major private fundraising to aid scholarships. "We have established the raising of funds for minority student scholarships as one of the priorities of that fundraising campaign," she said. "Aside from saying that this is a cultural imperative and a political imperative, it is also an imperitive for this institution because we live or die with the cities of Kenosha and Racine," she said. April an investment in the students' futures. He does not believe in Utopia, where everything is perfect, but he does believe "that we can reach a point where we can at least start to look at people based on the merits of the individual character. That I have black skin shdlild not be my qualification for obtaining an education that I deserve if I work as hard as everyone else." Kaplan explained that these communities are undergoing major changes in their demographic makeup, and "this institution is going to have to learn how to relate to and how to educate the minorities, who are going to the majority in the population of Racine and Kenosha in the next fifteen to twenty years." Hargrove feels that minority education "is at a point where we need to identify key personnel who can advance the educational opportunity message. They fall into two categories: role models and champions." He explained that role models and champions are trying to relate a message of hope, shared commitment, the advancement of educational opportunity, and Grace addressed the crowd by comparing Parkside to the other institutions where he has worked. "This is the first place I've ever worked where the chief executive is committed to making some progress. These are people at the top who are willing to be counted and who will take some leadership to get things changed," he said. Hargrove complimented the audience at the rally and PSGA. "You sponsored this rally because you believed and cared to invest your energy in a problem concerning minorities. It is said that involved students make stronger alliances, stronger citizens and stronger government. You are making a difference here today."

Yes, it seems like forever, but it's been only six years. Contrary to heresay, the builders of this school did not see me and my brother standing in a field and build the school around us. But, sadly yes, the rumor concerning my impending graduation from this university is true. It's been 13 years since the last time I wore a cap and gown-when I got out of high school (yes, I'm that old)-and I have mixed feelings now that Pm leaving the hallowed halls of old PU in that same get-up. It's difficult to find a lot of good things to say about Parkside, but there's more than you think. In my remembrances, I'll try not to get sentimental, but if I do, hey, so it goes. First of all, I have to thank my brother (who's been here a semester longer than me) for introducing me to the Ranger lo those six years ago, and for getting me on the road to a degree by suggesting English as a major. Thanks to the late Ken Meyer, who gave me my first paid Ranger position, as Sports Editor (which I lost in three weeks). Also thanks to all the editors and sports editors since then who have put up with all my quirks (ahem). Thanks also to the Parkside athletic department and coaches for keeping the stories coming. Another thank you goes to the professors of the English department, who put up the various late papers, poems and assignments. I especially have to thank Prof. Kummings for keeping his sanity, because I had at least six classes with him, and I'm sure I drove him crazy some- .times. Outside of Ranger and writing, I have to acknowledge (grudgingly) Nick Thome for corrupting me in Dart Team. I was part of the Team in it's glory days, and I know I'm not the same person I was before that. And finally, I wish to thank the University itself for somehow keeping my interest piqued for the past six years. I'm going to miss the daily grind of classes, the 10 to 20 page papers, buying textbooks, the clog in Molinaro in the morning, Ranger deadlines, Union Square, the Rec Center, bad jukebox music and the daily walk down the concourse. I'm going to miss this place. They just say thanks and so long by Rick Luehr Forgive me if this thing gets a little sentimental. I figure, since this is the last thing I'll ever write for Ranger, I can get away with it just once. When I first came to the Ranger office six and a half years ago, I felt like I was entering a room full of strangers. By the time I left, it was a room full of friends. And it's been that way ever since. Being on the staff has made me really feel like I belong, and it also gave me a sense that I was doing something really important. I would really like to thank everyone who has made an impression on me over my years here. I'd like to mention them all by name, but that would take the whole issue. First of all, I want to thank the Ranger staffs of the "HOW TO BECOME AN ELDER S TATESMAN? OH, YOU TWO SHOULDN'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM." Letters to the Editor Emphasis on research questioned past, all the people who gave me my first chance and always encouraged me. Of course, I have to thank the staff this year. All of you have really been good friends, as well as one hell of a great staff. So Jenny, Jon, Terri, Pook and Mooch, Randy, Amy (still the hottest news babe in the business), and everyone else; I love you and I'm really going to miss all of you. I can't end this thing without acknowledging everyone else on campus who have meant a lot to me over the years. To all the members of Alpha Psi Omega, and to all the rest of the faculty, students and staff, past and present, who have made these the best six and half years of my life: Thank you all so much. I'm really going to miss this place. To the Editor: My experiences with two professors situated in two different academic divisions at Parkside require comment. I would like to know why the university is terminating the employment of someone in the science division who is perhaps the best lecturer in his department. People I have talked to agree with me that he is, over all, one of the best, if not the best, teachers of the subject Parkside could hope to find. He has, in addition, made major efforts to coordinate club activities and, in general, increased interest in the field, at a time when enrollment in the program has been declining. The reason given for denial of tenure is the old familiar one: not enough research. Second, I would like to know the university's reasons for tolerating another professor, located in a social science discipline. This professor, who is well known beyond this campus, fills his lecture time with one-sided polemics about political ideas he doesn't like, talks mainly about those few parts of his subject he has done research in, and, in fact, doesn't even teach. I am told he has fewer students in his survey classes than any other professor in the discipline. In addition, this semester he has missed class time equivalent to two full weeks in order to attend conferences and meetings, yet he demands standards from his students equal to those of graduate school. Why, I would like to know, does the university fire the first professor and keep the second? Apparently it's the old "publish or perish" syndrome again: do mostly research and forget about teaching or risk getting axed. People have complained about this situation. They have complained to department heads, to other professors, and to members of the administration. Predictably nothing has been done. Obviously, with regard to these and similiar situations, nothing will ever be done. No wonder Parkside is losiSf lit If this institution eally wants to educate peotll' W!U have t0 recognize the contributions of those here who have actually assisted it in the accomplishment of its mission, not those who spend their time writing books. At Parkside. in the battle between teaching and research, it is obvious which has won out. Sincerely, Dennis Wheeler To the Editor: The Parkside Student Government Association would like to thank the faculty, staff, and students for attending the minority awareness rally which took place on Wednesday, April 27. We feel that the attendance at the rally gave support to the need for the minority actions council. We would also like to thank all the guest speakers for their invaluable time and support for the rally. Their participation was greatly appreciated.

Three bricks surrounding the missing brick were loose. Hamsing twisted her knee causing severe cartilage and tendon damage. Hamsing lay on the ground in the rain for 25 minutes unable to move. Though many passers-by said they would call for help, all failed to do so. "I had one guy ask me if I was part of a demonstration!" recalled Hamsing. "I told him that my umbrella had blown away, my books were God knows where, and my glasses had flown off of my face. I was sitting in a puddle and couldn't move, but other than that I was part of a demonstration. He said he would get help but never did." Approximately twenty minutes after her fall, two men approached her and told by Amy H. Ritter News Editor Without mentioning Parkside specifically, the new Kenosha mayor, Pat Moran, has expressed the intent to annex land surrounding Kenosha during his term in office. Moran made these comments during his inaugural address on Tuesday, April 20. "I totally believe in the good neighbor policy with the townships of Pleasant Prairie and Somers," he said. "I pledge to them that I will respect their concerns and also realize the need to work to-, gether for the economic growth and well-being of the Kenosha area. "However," he asserted, "the townships must realize that the city must be allowed to grow. I would expect the townships to honor the 1970's and 1980's sewer and water agreements that provide for economic growth and annexation opportunities for the city of Kenosha. The city cannot be landlocked." Moran said that one of his first objectives is to meet with leaders of the townships to formalize these agreements. In a previous interview with the Ranger, Moran said he would make no move toward annexing Parkside until a "win-win" situation was found, whereby the city, the university and the town of Somers would gain from the action. Moran's inaugural address focused on his plans to abide by the wishes of Kenosha citizens as expressed during the her they were athletic trainers and could help. "They tried to take me into the building out of the rain," explained Hamsing. "But as soon as they lifted me, I turned white and began to feel nauseous. They said I was going into shock." The two men left her there and called Campus Security for help. Upon arriving at the scene, Campus Security called the Somers Rescue Squad who took Hamsing to St. Catherine's Hospital for treatment. Hamsing was on crutches for a few weeks. Campus Security gave her a two week disabled parking permit which did not cover the full time she was on crutches. The hole in the walk, according to Hamsing, is still not repaired appropriately. She reports that a brick that does not fit was placed in the hole and packed with wet sand. The surrounding bricks remain loose and the replacements sticks up. In addition, Hamsing reports, one of her professors recently tripped on the replacement. Mayor Pat Moran Focus 2000 p roject. This project collected opinions on what needs to be changed in Kenosha, through neighborhood meetings, a telephone hotline, and other means. "Kenosha, over the next few years, will be faced with one of the greatest challenges in its history," Moran said. "This .imperative need has been outlined by our fellow citizens. "They have conveyed that we must ... diversify our economy, ... develop our lakefront, ... and enhance our image." To achieve economic diversification, Moran said he plans to target the city's efforts to attract new indusby Amy H. Ritter News Editor Chancellor Sheila Kaplan views her second year at Parkside as a positive experience, although not without blemish. During her first year, she explained, Kaplan focused on understanding and recognition of Parkside's needs. Through personnel she has appointed, this year she is beginning to see operations being built. "We meet all our goals here," she joked. However, in addition to reaching goals that were planned, Kaplan's responsibilities have included responding to unexpected situations. The Chrysler pull-out was an event that had not been expected nor planned for. Kaplan said this is a sad matter of course for the community, for those who will lose jobs, but she is pleased with Parkside's response to the crisis. While she realizes that Gateway Technical College carries the responsibility of re-training displaced workers, Parkside has played a role in the community's reactries. "I feel that the Focus 2000 effort initiated by this Council should be the city's blueprint for change," he said. "Last week at the Focus meeting, 50 percent of the respondents felt that there had not been any progress in addressing our three major objectives." To move forward to meet these goals, Moran stated his tion as well. Up to ten faculty members have become involved with Kenosha County committees to offer their expertise. "The University has done excellent work in providing intellectual support for the community," Kaplan said. Increasing enrollment and retention are goals that Kaplan set for this year. Although she will not see the results until September, the prospects look good. Applications are up 40 percent, and preliminary retention figures seem to be heading in the right direction, she said. Other successes are the completion of the search for a Dean of Business, improvement of the computer center, increased services for minorities (through the Center for Educational and Cultural Advancement), and several projects in academic areas. The UW System mandate for a new Mission Statement reinforced the plans Kaplan said she had already made to rewrite the statement. intention to set up a City Focus Commission. Aldermen and citizens will hold seats on the commission, which will evaluate the city's progress, establish goals, conduct public hearings, and report to the Council on the progress of the Focus 2000 effort. "Our time has come." the mayor concluded, "and I am proud to be a Kenoshan." Released earlier this year, the statement is the first revision since 1973. "It's been a very positive year in terms of fundraising," Kaplan added, citing an increase of 289 percent. Kaplan explained that the outcome of many projects will not be seen for several years, but the direction they are heading seems right. The tragic death of Dan Hall created another situation that required administration response. Kaplan said tht campus security will be given greater freedom to enforce stricter alcohol policies. "We will not tolerate alcohol abuse here," she said. Hall's death, although a great tragedy, has caused increased awareness of alcoholrelated problems. "From all tragedies, sometimes good things can come," Kaplan said. Total Service for U. W. Parkside Employees and Students Tallent Hall Room 286 553-2150 Mon.-Fri. 10-3 Serving four other locations Racine Waukesha Burlington Milwaukee New Kenosha mayor hints at annexation 4 Thursday, May 5, 1988 Ranger Polheber plans "something big" for SOC during presidency by Steven R. Picazo and Kelly McKisslck Kevin Polheber admits that he hasn't had much leadership experience with SOC (Student Organizations Council), but is more than ready to jump with both feet into his new title of SOC President. At the SOC meeting on April 18, Polheber was elected President, Wanda Leiting became Vice-President, and Lisa Donais retained her position as secretary. Polheber is a senior majoring in psychology, and represented the Psi Chi Psychology Club in SOC for the past year. He had passing fancies about becoming president, but his thoughts only turned serious after the nominations were announced. "I had my reservations at first," he said, but once he was nominated, "I realized that if'I was going to be in the race that I should try to win it and do what I could to help SOC. "It sounded appealing to me because I always wanted to become more active and involved in the things that are going on at the University. I also think that the clubs are an important part of campus life," he said. Polheber explained that he ha^ really not had a chance to get in contact with some of the administrators on campus to get their views on SOC, but said that he received some Kevin Polheber advice from SOC's advisor, Diane Welsh. "She told me that I could do a lot with SOC to make it into something big, or I could do just enough to get by. I want to make it into something big," Polheber commented. According to the SOC Constitution, Polheber is supposed to run Monday's meeting, but past SOC President Marie Bayer requested that she be allowed to run it to say her good-byes to the clubs. He said that Bayer expressed to him that she would like to see the SOC clubs become more "SUMMER SCHOOL" STUDENTS BEAT THE HEAT!

"I concur with that, and will try to get it more recognized and involved on campus. It is major status organization. I know that here are some clubs that are starting to form, and I'll help them out with whatever they need to get started," he said. Polheber feels that a number of SOC clubs will be very helpful to him over the next year, including Pi Upsilon Beta, Sociology Club and Student Wisconsin Educators Association (SWEA). He explained that members of these clubs have already approached him with ideas for next year. "I'm really excited about this, and winning the election was a real rewarding experience in itself," he said. "I plan to do as much as I can to get SOC recognized and off to a roaring start next year." Dr. Curtis participates in arms control Dr. Willie Curtis, assistant professor of political science at Parkside, is one of 35 college instructors invited to participate in a two week seminar on Nuclear Weapons and Arms Control at Harvard University this summer. The seminar, sponsored jointly by Harvard and the Center for International Studies at MIT, will include discussions of such topics as arms control theories, ethical issues in the nuclear age, and nuclear weapons testing limits. Curtis, currently on leave at the University of Delaware, will be offering a summer course at Parkside on World Politics and a new course this fall, entitled "Force, Diplomacy, and World Order."

Shaw's proposal would set aside 500 scholarships each year for minority and low-income white students who meet UW admission standards. In the cartoon, a student is painting himself black, drawing paint from a bucket bearing the labels "Minority In A Minute" and "E-Z 2-ition." The student is saying.

Racial confrontation in Madison MADISON - Madison police broke up a confrontation between black and white students at the Acacia fraternity house, on Langdon Street, Thursday night (April 14)--a clash provoked by a disruption of three UW-Madison classrooms last week, reports the Wisconsin State Journal. As a result of last week's disruption, one Acacia member at the University of Illinois was expelled from the fraternity and 15 others were suspended. Members of the Madison chapter apparently were not involved in the incidents on the Madison campus. The altercation at the Madison Acacia house began shortly before 11 p.m. When officers arrived, they found black and white students engaged in an argument outside the fraternity house. The fraternity's president told police that Acacia members were having a party when about 20 blacks entered the house in three different groups. According to police reports, they disrupted the party and made a variety of demands. Among the demands was that the fraternity apologize to all blacks on campus and identify the Illinois student who last Friday disrupted a UW class called "The African Storyteller" and set off stink bombs in an African language and literature class. Voc. school system in trouble Wisconsin's vocational-school system, long regarded as one of the nation's best, is beset by problems as it faces an uncertain future, reports the Wisconsin State Journal. The system, which has served millions of full-time and part-time students over 75 years, is confronted by legislative proposals for dramatic reorganization and the prospect of decreasing property-tax financing. Moreover, directors have been ousted in two of its districts, and in a third, an administrator resigned so his salary could be used to save other jobs. Some 440,000 people, or the equivalent of 58,340 full-time students, are being served this year at the system's 43 main and satellite campuses. Housing Olympic Games a hit Next Ranger Sept. 8 - Have a good summer! Ranger repents for sins In the April 21 edition of the Ranger, the information concerning the changes in the financial aid laws incorrectly stated that women can have their tuition payments deferred for six or twelve months. The words "tuition payments" should have been educational loan repayments which can be deferred. Tuition payments cannot be deferred. The Ranger repents for this error and regrets any confusion it may have caused. by Laura Pestka The second annual Housing Olympic Games, otherwise known as the HOG Bowl, was held Wednesday, April 27 through Friday, April 29, and was, by all accounts, a huge success. The games were kicked off Wednesday afternoon with an obstacle course held in the Union Bazaar. The event included sucking lemons and then blowing up balloons, drinking baby bottles filled with kool-aid, and then contestants had to wrap their hands with toilet paper and push a brick across the floor using only their noses. The Music Mania event was held Wednesday evening. This was a lip-sync contest that was won by Derek Brown and Mike Ferreira of House Three and Seven. Preceeding the marvelous Music Mania was the first half of the Family Feud game. The Feud was hosted by Rocky Dawson (otherwise known as Rocky Donovan), and the hostess was Vanna Black, alias Michelle Herrem. The games continued on Thursday, starting with a graffitti contest on the housing complex patio where teams drew their chalk masterpieces. House Two won the event with picture of a dragon. A wiffle-ball tournament that had originally been scheduled for Wednesday but The Hog Bowl wiffle ball game heated up as Kevin Smith took a mighty 9wing at George Koenig's speedbaH. was postponed until Thursday because of the weather. When it was played, the winner was House Five. Thursday evening brought a conclusion to Family Feud and the event was won by House Six. The events wound down with a picnic on Friday afternoon. The scent of brats wafting through the air drew students out into the sunshine. The overall winner of HOG Bowl was House Four. House Three came in second. Houses Two, Five, Six and Seven tied for third with House One coming in last. The HOG Bowl was the brainchild of Resident Assistant Rocky Donovan who started the event last year. This year's games were a super success with good representation from all the houses. HOG Bowl t-shirts were a hot item sold during the games. The event, now a housing tradition, will be held again next year.

During the less crowded hours in the recreation center, the station will be playing more off beat music and talk shows. At present, the station is relying on donations of records from record companies. So far they have received 50 records. These records are promotional. The station will Campus Cinco de Mayo celebration set Cinco De Mayo, a celebration of the Mexican overthrow of Emperor Maxmillian and French control of Mexico, will be held May 4-6 at Parkside. Cinco De Mayo's celebration begins with a movie on the history of Mexico in the Union Cinema at noon. Following the movie is a musical performance by area high school bands. A jazz festival from 1-4 p.m. will also be held on the same day in the Union Cinema. A dinner celebration held in Union Square highlights the second day of the celebration, May 5. A Hispanic folk dance group led by Diane Garza and a keynote address by Joe Muniz, a member of the Board of Directors of the Spanish Centers of Racine, Kenosha and Walworth Inc., follows the dinner that includes chicken in mole sauce, rice and beans. The dinner begins at 6 p.m. with a $6 donation per person. Dancing to the music of El Destino from 8 p.m. to 1 a.m. in Union Square ends the celebration's activities on May 6. A $3 donation is requested for the dance. Tickets for the celebration are available at the Racine Spanish Center, Kenosha Spanish Center, and the Parkside Information Center, Union building.

They have also worked out deals with a number of record companies including Warner Brothers and Columbia Records. WLBR also gets sporadic student donations. The station is presently discussing a three-stage plan to reach the broadcast area. The first step will be to hook up a direct line to the Union and recreation center. The line to the recreation center is already in place and hopes are high that it wili go to the union as well. The next step involves the use of a carrier current system. This would allow reception at the dorms and hopefully on campus radios. The third step would be to strike a deal with Jones' Intercable or Racine Telecable allowing the station to broadcast off campus. The broadcast hours have not yet been set, but are likely to correspond with the hours of the recreation center.

Bostetter 'sees positive things' by Terri DeRosier Feature Editor As her year as president of Parkside Activities Board (PAB) comes to an end, Sue Bostetter is proud of the accomplishments PAB has made to the campus this year. "I feel that our overall image has improved," Bostetter said, "and that really shows in the number of students that we had involved with the board this year. " "Students all over the campus realize who we are now," Bostetter explained, "and that's basically because of our new members all showing such positive attitudes." Bostetter said when she started out the year, the number one goal she set for herself and the board was to increase the membership. She feels that all the committees were able to fulfill their goals because the board had the people -- people who were Sue Bostetter committed to make it happen. "The one thing that didn't happen this year," Bostetter pointed out, "was better com-', munication between the student organizations and the student leaders. I don't think that has happened, and I'd like to see everyone work on that next year. It's a realistic goal, and I think it could happen." As far as the future of PAB, Bostetter feels that the executive council for next year has the experience to help the board continue it's forward movement. "All I see are positive things," Bostetter said. "I'd like to see the overnight training and team-building session continue next year. That was something we started last year, and it really helped us to come together as a working unit this year. "I would also like to see the board keep the high energy level and the high amount of involvement going. The new ideas and the creativity are what made things happen this year, and that's what will continue to make things happen next year." UC has new leader Current UC Legislative Affairs Director Jim Smith was elected President of United Council for the upcoming year on April 26. After a rather grueling three hour election process, Smith won the majority vote of those attending the Gener-, al Assembly meeting. Because only 77 members of the General Assembly were at the meeting and a majority vote of 68 is needed to win a presidential election, election rule 10.11 was suspended after the fifth ballot. This rule states that the president must be elected with the majority vote of the entire General Assembly, whether they are present or not. The other candidates running for president were Steve Cady, current UC vice president and president of Stevens Point student government; and David Woldseth, current Legislative Affairs Director of UW Madison student government. Both candidates dropped out of the election before the third ballot. However, internal haggling within the General Assembly precluded quick, concrete election results. After the sixth ballot was cast. Smith was officially declared new UC president. Although the outcome was a long time coming, Smith told the General Assembly he was ready to move forward with plans for the upcoming year. "In the same way in which we've gained credibility within the Legislature, we're going to gain credibility on the campuses next year," Smith said. Citing his record as Legislative Affairs Director, Smith said he has the experience and the dedication to make solid changes in UC. "I want to raise the profile of United Council as a whole." Smith begins his presidential term June 1, replacing current President Adrian Serrano. Bayer cites accomplishments by Rick Luehr and Terri DeRosier With the Student Organization Council (SOC) gaining major status at the beginning of the semester, and the resignation of former president Don Harmeyer in the middle of last semester, the task of keeping SOC on the right track fell to Marie Bayer, and she feels that she did just that. "I think my greatest accomplishment was keeping SOC together and functioning," Bayer stated. "We didn't make any great leaps forward, but we didn't move backwards either. We kept the meetings informal, and tried to make them fun." In discussing things she wanted to do with SOC, Bayer said she wished that she could have gotten the clubs more involved with SOC. "Most of the members just came to the meetings," Bayer explained. "They were all involved with their own clubs. There were a lot of re- Marie Bayer organizations in the clubs this year, so that took away from SOC functioning as one group. "I would like to see SOC take off on its own," Bayer continued, "and I'd like to see SOC become an actual organization and function as one group." Bayer said that she would like to encourage all the members to take SOC seriously. She said that there was a communication problem with the clubs this year. Bayer said that a lot of clubs lost money because they were unaware that they needed to attend meetings to keep their budgets from getting cut. Bayer also feels that one of the big problems that all the leaders of the clubs and organizations on campus will face next year in student apathy. "I'd really like to see the student get more involved in the clubs and their activities," Bayer said. "To get students to become involved in this campus is a hard job, and the leaders for next year will have their work cut out for them. I really feel that it's (getting rid of student apathy) not an impossible task, just a tough and challenging one." Orientation aims at more excitement New Student Orientation is in its fourth year at Parkside. Plans to make this year's events even more exciting are in the works, according to Steve McLaughlin, director of Student Life and chair of the planning committee. To make the day a more memorable event and to give new students the opportunity to meet and talk with continuing students, the committee is looking for a few current Parkside students to serve as Orientation leaders. The leaders will serve as tour guides, lead group discussions and perform as public relations specialists for the new students and their families. The leaders are paid by the university for their participation in the program. "Last year's program gave new students the opportunity to get to know the campus and its students a little bit before the start of the semester," said Maria Rintz, an Orientation Leader from the 1987-88 program. "I think this helped many of the new students feel at home quickly. I still see some of the students from my groups and I'm always glad to help with problems." The Orientation program will again be spread over a day and a half and the leaders will be able to commit to as many or as few of the scheduled programs as they can manage. Further information and applications for these positions are available in the Student Life office, Union 209. Good luck Graduates! Reach For The Stars!

And do you know what comes next? That's right, the madness of Exam Week '88. This special time of year is always fun for students, and why shouldn't it be? The hours of sleep sacrificed for the sake of a decent grade is reason enough to participate in this fun-filled event. Borderline students, like myself, will be camping out in that thing called the "library." I've heard this "library" place is a good place to study. O.K., that's enough sarcasm. You really didn't think I was serious, did you? I would hate to think that there's somebody out there that much in the dark-but I forget-this is Wisconsin. This has been a very difficult semester for me: first in trying to take 17 credits, and then in trying to graduate. I feel yery apologetic because I know I have a few readers out there who count on me to say this and that about what's going on. So to those, few, I apologize. Two weeks ago, when I picked up a Ranger, a fellow student approached me and said, "What's up, man?!" I tried to laugh it off and said that I didn't have anything to write. No dice. "Nothing to write. What about Jesse ("Democratic Presidential hopeful") Jackson?" It was then that I realized that I was letting my readers down. So in this, my last Ranger article., I will try to redeem myself by letting you know my true feelings concerning Jackson, and also other matters that I feel need to be said. "So what about Jesse Jackson, Doc?" I really have nothing much to say except that I do support Jackson. "Why? Because he's Black?" Yes, and also because he's down for the people. If I have learned anything from this election, it is that people are starting to open up their minds. There are still those who choose to stay locked in their simple-minded attitudes. It hurts me to think that there's someone out there saying, "hell, it's the White House! They didn't make it for no niggers to be in charge." I'll bet my degree that such a person exists. That's why it's encouraging ' to see Jackson win in a state like Vermont. I think most people would reply, "Word Up!" if I made the statement that Wisconsin is a bugged-out state. When the news went down that Chrysler was pulling out of Kenosha, it was Jackson who came to support these people. Brian 'Doc' Mallory Wasn't he-in fact-supporting keeping big business in Wisconsin? And still governor Dukakis won the Primary. Don't get me wrong. I'm going to support the Democratic Party no matter what...but it seems to me that America loves to get screwed. And maybe America's wish will come true by supporting such candidates as "Bush" and "Do-Cock-Us". But hey-that's just this writer's reality. As far as the music scene is concerned, I think I've preached too much on how much good music is out there. In those articles, I tried to connect not only Top 40 pop fans, but also Top 40 R&B fans to good music that somehow or another never gets the airplay it deserves. So I listened to the ballads, the mellow tempo, the fast tempo, and the hard core styles of music because these are the arenas of black music. It doesn't matter if it's A1 B. Sure harmonizing "Nite and Day," or the Fresh Prince and Jazzy Jeff reminding us that "Parents Just Don't Understand," because, like black students, black music is rich in its variations, and it is this richness that I wanted Parkside to (at best) try to appreciate. I feel it was successful every time I heard some brother in the hallway thinking about being a deejay for our new campus radio station- complete success doesn't come until this flavor of music is actually aired.-so do stay tuned. I note these things because they are strides of progress at Parkside. In five years, I have seen a few other positive steps. The first is the Minority Retention Grant. This grant has helped minority students battle the rising cost of college expenses. If this grant existed in the Spring of 1986, I would not have had to withdraw from that particular semester, so I do know what I'm talking about when I say that is does help. Another stride Parkside is currently making pertains to having students show competance in college level courses rather than the Competancy Exams. There are a number of students I know passing pre-calculus, which eliminates the math portions of these type of exams. I'm very glad for the new freshman who will not have to worry about the writing and reading claws of the dreaded Competancy Exam Monster. This monster has devoured many victims in the time I've been here, and believe me when I tell you that some of those victims were damn good students -who could have been graduating with me. For those students who still have to defeat this beast, kill it quick because the rest of the path is much safer. I would like to note some of the progress in campus awareness that I have seen. This ranges from the sit-ins to open the D-l level doors of the library for a free South Africa. I can't forget my involvement in the group, Students For Peace, and how one of our main objectives was to make students aware of the fact that hell on earth is just a computer-screw up away. Other groups that have tried to raise the awareness of this University are poets, prophets and performers and those in charge of the "Somewhere in the Room" publication. For a minute, let's talk about racial awareness. The present and future leaders of the Black Student Organization (BSO), as well as it's members, are aware of the trashy, scummy, literature that's being polluted on other college campuses across teh country. Instead of giving that type of trash the gratification of having me describe its contents, I'm gonna come correct and say that those writers and editors of such filth and sick, atavisticminded creatures (not at all human), and their only cure rests in the fires of Hell-so burn bastards! The other bit of me "speaking now or forever holding my "piece" (leave it alone Robb!) has to do with my views on my position in the Ranger Stud Calendar. There's only one way to play this situation-real chill. When I was asked to pose for the calendar, I couldn't imagine doing it, especially after seeing George Koenig's nude shot. Then there was Gary Schneeberger posing in the icy lake. It was here that I realized that this was just clean fun. When the calendar came out, I was surprised that I was December, it didn't break my heart though. When a person partakes in an activity such as modeling (not that I call myself a model or anything), he tries not to look at the negative. A negative way to look at my pose is to say that I was last because I was the least attractive of the twelve or because I am black. A positive way to look at my pose is to say that I was last because T was the most attractive of the twelve and I am black. But I want the reader to notice that something being positive or negative depends on those interpretations of those facts involved. Reread the sentences on the positive and the negative and notice the things I can change and the things I can't change. The things that can change are the words "positive" and "negative" and the words "least" to "most." These words can make a person a winner or a loser. When we look at the things I can't change we see the words "my pose" and also "was last;" but wait a minute -I see a few other words, namely "attractive" and "black"«with these words I can't seem to lose. So I can thank the Ranger for the chance to pose on the calendar and Amy H. Ritter, who I know isn't a racist. I must also commend Lorissa Jackson for being "aware to care". So that's it Parkside: five years, four and a half semesters, thousands of dollars spent, thousands of dollars in debt, hundreds of memories (good and bad), a lot of notes, plenty of professors, many friends, a few close friends, and one love all add up to a world of knowledge-not to mention a B.A. in Sociology. PEACE, LOVE AND UNITY! I'M OUTTA HERE! Choirs recruit by Peter Hansen Last month, Parkside's Chorale and Chamber Singers went on their second day-long tour of area high schools. The schools at which they appeared were: Whitefish Bay Dominican, Burlington, and Salem Central. The choir went on a similar high school tour last fall, covering Greendale, Greenfield, Cudahy, St. Francis, and South Milwaukee. During the 1987 tour, they celebrated the bicentennial signing of the Constitution with all American composers on the program. Performing four and five times in one day was "a little grueling," said director Robert Campbell, but "we received very positive feedback" from students, directors, and some administrators. "I applaud the students for their efforts." At some of the schools, members of the high school choirs knew the music and joined in the performance. But the objective of the tour extends beyond the spreading of beautiful music. Parkside hopes that this exposure will result in higher enrollment, not only for the music department, but for the whole campus as well. The schools covered by the tour were chosen from a Student Enrollment Services list of preferred schools, and literature promoting Parkside was distributed at each school. According to Campbell, the choir is "an effective recruiting tool" because it's easy for them to display the profits of their labor on the road. ON THE A VE 5701 22ND AVE.

Life and love explored in new Simon film by Randy LeCount Biloxi Blues i Directed by Mike Nichols , screenplay by Neil Simon Starring Matthew Broderick and Christopher Walken The familiar and stereotypical clash between the military discipline of the drill instructor and the youthful rebellion of the recruit vividly comes to life in Neil Simon's 'Biloxi Blues." Despite the familiarity of the plot, Eugene Jerome (Matthew Broderick), a city boy from New York who finds himself in Biloxi, Mississippi, for basic training for World War II, and Sergeant Toomey (Christopher Walken), the cliched disciplinarian drill instuctor, both serve to make the picture something more than the simplistic, overused plot it is in theory. Broderick and Walken, along with the rest of the excellent leading cast, take the viewer deeper into human conflict a nd emotion than the on-the-surface differences between the two main characters, Eugene and Sergeant Toomey. In fact, the conflict between Eugene and Sergeant Toomey, with the exception of the p icture's introduction and early scenes, and the climax, does not completely dominate the a ction as in films with a similar plot such as "Stripes." Don't be mistaken, though. Sergeant Toomey's presence is felt throughout, despite the emphasis in the middle scenes which pointedly shifts to t he recruits' travels down the road of innocence to maturity. This is shown as Eugene is initiated into the world of sex with the help of a hooker (Park Overall), and the security and confusion of falling Another ghost story Matthew Broderick in love with Daisy (Penelope Ann Miller). Director Mike Nichols seems to skillfully blend the vividness of Simon's dialogue and visible comedy, go beyond the possible simplicity of the plot, and make it the deeper depiction of World War II that it is. Simon provides all the comedy and human drama necessary to provoke contemplation which is aimed at the more mature viewer, as the recruits encounter the issues of friendship, love, honesty, discrimination, homosexuality, and more. This may account for the relatively subdued reception the movie received from younger viewers expecting to see Broderick in his familiar role of "teen" comedy. - But, it is Nichols' skill in orchestrating the middle scenes to show how the recruits learn about each other, and, at the same time, about the cruel realities of life in the 1940's, and 1980's, that make this movie more enriching than the plot originally lends it to be.

Michael Keaton stars (if you can call anyone who doesn't really do anything until the film is half over the star) as a really disgusting ghost called 'Betelgeuse,' who is enlisted to help a newly deceased young couple chase away a family that has moved into the stiffs' country home and is ruining the charm by redecorating it in a truly nauseating "post-modern" style. The dead couple, played rather charmingly by Alec Baldwin and Geena Davis, has failed in their solo attempts to scare off the family, and, against advice by their afterlife "caseworker," summon up the gross title character. The main problem with this film is that director Tim Burton often substitutes grossness for humor, especially in the scenes involving Keaton. Betelgeuse is forever eating bugs or picking something really nasty out of his nose. I thought the attitude of "sickening is funny" went out with "Animal House." Maybe I had my sights set a little too high, but somehow I expected a lot more from both Burton and Keaton. Another problem is a very troubling subplot regarding the daughter of the living couple. She walks around the entire film dressed in black, which is alright in itself. The troubling part comes when she begins contemplating suicide. The serious nature of the topic seems totally out of place in a supposed comedy. Call me old fashioned, but I don't like the idea of even one laugh being derived from this situation. All in all, the subject is so trivialized in the film that one wonders why it was ever included in the first place. On the positive side, both Baldwin and Davis are very likable as the recently deceased couple, and Sylvia Sidney turns in a good performance as their caseworker. The special effects are quite well done and give the film a cartoony quality similar to Burton's last film, the infamous "Pee-Wee's Big Adventure." In the final totals, the film's problems outweigh the positive aspects. Okay, it's better than "Transylvania 6-5000," but then again, what isn't? by Terri DeRosier Feature Editor Parkside Activities Board (PAB) will sponsor "Road Rally '88" on Saturday, May 14 starting at 11:30 a.m. in the Union Bazaar, in conjunction with its "The End" festivities. This year, contestants will be given a list of 30 items that they will need to "search" for in both Racine and Kenosha. "People will have to go to certain places in cities," JoAnn Kalinka, coordinator of the rally said. "We'll be asking for specific items from certain places." Kalinka said that PAB is setting a limit of 25 entries, so students are encouraged to sign up right away. The entry fee will be $5 per car with four people per car allowed. Students may sign up in Union 209 or at. the Union Information Desk beforehand. PAB will also accept registrations up to the start of the event, providing the limit of 25 hasn't been reached.

The rally is a timed event, and will begin and end on Inner Loop road. The cars will be sent off in five minute intervals, with individual contestants choosing their routes. "PAB would like to remind everyone that's interested in entering that this is a fun event," Kalinka said, "and 'we encourage all students to adhere to the no drinking and driving law."

Chicagoland/Northwestern Indiana Pontiac Dealers by Terri DeRosier Feature Editor Six Parkside students are taking a little bit of their homeland to a Racine elementary school. Students Herman Cheung, Saddaf Mehar, Rika Morishita, Chuck Kariampuzha, Ping Fong and Hung Tran are currently participating in the program that was arranged by Professor Gerry Greenfield. Cheung, who is originally from Hong Kong, is a freshman majoring in mechanical engineering. He lived in Hong Kong for seventeen years, and spent one year as a student at Milwaukee School of Engineering before coming to Parkside. Cheung shares his experiences with a group of second graders and is enthusiastic about the program. He especially enjoys the questions that the children ask him. "They want to know everything about my county," Sheung said, "and they seem really eager to learn." Mrs. Billingsley, the teacher of the second grade class, said that the teachers were first approached with the idea during a staff meeting. After deciding the program would be worth while for their children, the teachers got the opportunity to meet with the students. Billingsley said that when Cheung choose to work with her class, she asked him to share the customs and traditions of China, and to compare them to the same things here in America. Cheung will have four sessions with the class, and so far he has taught the children to write the words mouth, water, sun, and moon using Chinese symbols, and he has taught them how to write the numbers 1-10, 100, and 1000. The children also learned how to hold and use chopsticks. Cheung explained that children in China know how to use chopsticks by the time they are two years old. While answering questions about his country, Cheung took the time to help every child in the room hold the chopsticks. After using the sticks, the children took out pencils and practiced picking up erasers. Cheung closed out the session by asking the children if they had any questions. They wanted to know things about computers, whether or not the schools had clubs and basketball. One bespectacled child wanted to know if children in China wore glasses, and another wanted to know if it was true that China had "dancing dragons?" Cheung said he is participating in this project because he feels it is an important experience not only for himself, but for the children too. "I only hope that some of the things they learn from me today will bring our two worlds a little closer." Herman Cheung helps child hold chonstick* 'to by John Kehoe Jiiivfiiiiiii MAY 8 !

The Master's last great album. 'Wimpy' wants to rock to the top by Terri DeRosier Feature Editor Parkside student Robb Andrews is hoping to make it to the top. Not to the top of the building, but to the top of the music charts. Andrews, who is a music major, uses the stage name "Wimpy" and has recorded a 45 lp on Sonic Arts Records out of Lake Villa, 111. Last week, with the help of dramatic arts Professor Lee Van Dyke, Andrews made his first video using the Parkside campus for background. The song, "Hello, Can you Tell Me Your Name," is the song that Andrews is banking on to take him to places like MTV, VH1 and other highlyrated cable TV-video shows. Andrews said that he starting getting serious about music when he was in the fourth grade. He started playing string bass and moved up to electric bass. He then learned to play piano and the electronic keyboard and then the guitar. "I also do my own background and lead vocals," Andrews said, "and I do my own studio editing." Andrews has had a little air play on a small AM radio station out of Milwaukee, and hopes that after his video gets sent to record companies in Detroit, Los Angeles and New York, that he will not only get national coverage but local coverage as well. "I'm going to keep trying," Andrews said, "and some day I'll make it."

The incredible injustices done to classic albums m that article cannot be left to stand. Why such odd numbers, you may ask? We chose 23 years because every album listing covers the last 20 or 25 years. We chose 103 because we felt 100 was too limiting. In including and ranking albums, consideration was not given to popularity, but to influence on rock 'n roll as it has developed, and the general quality of the album in terms of listening pleasure. For the most part, this list is our personal opinion. Being veritable cornucopias of musical information, we believe this list is the most comprehensive, or at least the most PSGA has to offer (sorry, Jan). If you get Pettit and Peterson's picks you've got it all. F KS* OOOAAAHHHHHHH! 1. The Beatles (a.k.a. the "White Album") by The Beatles. Truly the best and most influential album in rock 'n roll history. The most stylistic contrast on one album ever. 2. Abbey Road by the Beatles. Broke ground for rock for the early 1970's. The swan song of all swan songs. 3. Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band by the Beatles. The best of the classic Beatles' concept albums of all time. What more can be said? 4.

Rubber Soul by the Beatles. Full of some of the most memorable Beatles singles. 10. The Velvet Underground and Nico by the Velvet Underground. The best album that no one ever heard or bought, but clearly one of the most influential. 11. Stand! by Sly and the Family Stone. Sly showed the Woodstock feelings of the 1960's. 12. Sticky Fingers by the Rolling Stones. The best 70's album by a 60's group. 13. Highway 61 Revisited by Bob Dylan Classic electric folk rock. Dylan in a nutshell. 14. What's Going On? by Marvin Gaye.

One of the most popular live albums ever made shows Frampton at his 75 Street Survivors by Lynvrd Skvnvrd SZ ™Ck'S £in6St ^ 5SS See Rock pg. 13 Metal band is a real ear burner BUND ILLUSION The Sane Asylum (Combat Records) At first look, the song titles on "The Sane Asylum," the debut album of Blind Illusion; titles such as "Blood Shower" and "Death Noise," could make you dismiss them as just a run-of-the-mill death metal band. This would be a mistake, because if you did, you would be missing out on some of the most innovative and original metal to come along in years. . The members of Blind Illusion eschew most of the cliches of standard speed metal. They rely instead on shifting tempos and interesting harmonic structures which seem at times to be almost classical in construction. Bassist Les Clay pool (formerly of the band Possessed) contributes some of the most incredible bass passages I've heard in a long time. It seems likely that Claypool has some amount of jazz training, as his bass riffs are constantly in motion. Often, the band reminds one of early Iron Maiden, both in sound and construction. The albums lyrics demonstrate that, while not totally Christian inspired, the band is definitely anti-Satanic. For example, in "Blood Blind Illusion records on the Combat label Shower," a song about Armageddon, with some concepts lifted directly out of the Biblical Book of Revelations, the lyrics state that when final judgement comes, "It's Satanist souls - not ours he'll take/ To rid forever/ From the universe/ Those who claim their fate/ With Lucifer." The only major drawback to the album lies with band leader Marc Biedermann. While his guitar work is great, his singing is very standard. Biedermann shouts and growls the lyrics just as most average death metal singers. This is quite disappointing when one considers the originality and talent which lies in virtually every other aspect of the album. Don't let all of this heavily analytical stuff I've been writing so far fool you. Far and above everything else, "The Sane Asylum" is a definite ear burner. The band put all of its musical talent and finesse together to create an album which, if played loud enough, will peel the paint off the walls and clean out your sinuses. —Rick Luehr Drum sounds dominate new release SISTERS OF MERCY Floodland (Electra Records) Following the release of The Sisters Of Mercy's first LP, "First and Last and Always," the band split. The Mission and The Sisterhood evolved as a result. Andrew Eldritch, the leader of the original Sisters, has joined up with Patricia Morrison, former bassist for The Bags and The Gun Club, and The Doktor drum machine to rekindle that exceptional sound found on "First and Last and Always," and on the rare Sisterhood LP, "The Gift." Eldritch, Morrison, and The Doktor created the "The Gift," a unique LP that is a must for all Sisters fans. The trio has recently released another masterpiece, reclaiming the original The End is near! The End is near!

The new LP, "Floodland," explores the development of different drum machine sounds, and creates a seemingly, doomy tone. The addition of Morrison's vocals ruins the hope for a replica of The Sisters' earlier sound. Overall, "Floodland" is purposely spiritual and generates exceptional sound quality. —George Koenig Jazz band offers more than music by Ken McCray Last Sunday at Milwaukee's City Club, I had the pleasure of being part of the well-attended Uncle Festive concert. The concert was sponsored by radio station WBZN 100.7. Uncle Festive took the stage after the band Oceans, at approximately 9 p.m. and played for about 90 minutes. During the night, Festive played many tunes from all three of their albums: '86's "Say Uncle" and their soon to be released "Young People With Faces." But the highlight of the concert was that each of the band members played at least two solos. The evening started out with the quick, crisp, and loud percussion sounds of Bud Harner. The audience was then transformed by the smooth, impressive virtuoso bass playing of Marc Levine (who happens to resemble Geddy Lee). John Pondel, the guitarist, added excitement throughout the night with his rock-oriented style of guitar playing. One interesting comment overheard from a woman in the crowd was "lie's so short." The response was, "good thing guitar-playing ability and height are not related." FinallyLbest for last? Ron Pedley, composer and ^ arranger, kept the women* screaming with his gyrating pelvis and non-stop voracious playing of the keyboards. Uncle Festive is a Los Angeles based band and con> trary to belief, are well established in the world of touring and recording. Pondel's guitar can be heard on a few TV soundtracks, such as Hard Copy, St. Elsewhere and Dallas. Harner has played on several of Barry Manilow's top hits as well as on his world concert tours, and has also been a featured artist in Modern Drummer Magazine (May '86). Levine's music speaks for itself -he is currently one of L.A.'s top session bass players. In addition, the band members have played with Freddie Hubbard, Stanley Clarke, Steve Bach, and Paul Anka. Some of the band members have also played back up to such artists as Manilow, Bette Midler, Melba Moore, Stevie Wonder, composer Pat Williams, and many others. So if you didn't see Uncle Festive on Manilow's TV special, and didn't see them at the City Club, don't worry. Uncle Festive will be appearing July 3 and 4 at Summerfest's brand new Jazz/New .Age stage.. Fuel up for Finals! THE END PartiskJe Activities Board Wrestlers rewarded for strong season The Parkside Union by Ted Price The Ranger Wrestling team held its annual wrestling awards banquet last Sunday. Awards were given and season highlights were replayed and rehashed. The Ranger wrestlers had a fairly successful 1987-88 season that could best be described as a transitional year. Three seniors closed out their careers, while four sophomores and five freshmen were still gaining experience for the years to come. The grapplers still had a fine season as they managed to post a 9-3 dual meet record, extend their win streak against Wisconsin opponents to 32 in a row, and also had two wrestlers, Jack Danner and Mark Hemauer, earn All- American honors. Here are some individual highlights of the 1987-88 wrestling season: Tim Whiting-Freshman, 142 lbs. Whiting had a few injury problems early and wrestled at one of the deeper weight classes on the team. He posted a 10-11-1 season record and placed third at the Stevens Point Open and sixth at the Midwest Classic. He also placed third at the NCAA II West Regional and qualified for the NCAA II national tournament, but did not place. Greg Stritchko-Freshman, 177 lbs. Stritchko was a hard-working freshman that needed to gain some college experience. His season record was 7-14. Doug Bremer-Freshman, 190 lbs. Bremer also had injury problems and a lack of experience. His season record was 4-13. Kevin Tremeiling-Freshman, Heavyweight Tremelling really improved toward the end of the year and fell just short of a national tournament berth. His season record was 16-17-1, and he played an intregal part in keeping the Rangers' Wisconsin win streak intact against Whitewater with a tie that preserved a 23-20 victory. Scott Stephenson-Freshman, 158 lbs. Stephenson was a red-shirt freshman who was also bitten by the injury bug but recorded an 11-6 record. He placed third at the Stevens Point Open a nd won three matches at the NAIA nationals while falling one match short of earning All-American honors. Stephenson was also an NAIA District 14 honorable mention. 190 lbs. against state rival UW-LaCrosse. John Karl-Sophomore, 142 lbs. Karl came out on top of a 142 pound dog fight to man the varsity spot, accumulated a season record of 21-15. He placed fourth at the Southwest Missouri St. Invitational, fourth at the Wheaton Invitational, and second at the Stevens Point Open. Karl qualified for the NAIA nationals and won one match, but did not place. He was also an District 14 honorable mention Dennis DuChene-Sophomore, 126 lbs. DuChene led the team with 37 wi ns on his way to a 37-10 record. DuChene racked up third place finishes at the Stevens Point Open, the Wisconsin Collegiate Open, and the Southwest Missouri St. Invitational. He was runner-up at the Warhawk Invitational, See Wrestling awards page 18 Doug Parker-Sophomore, 142 lbs Parker was a valuable wrestler who filled in wherever an injury created a vacancy.

One, order immediately after August 1st, and prepare yourself early for the fall semester. Two, wait until the semester begins, then rush, along with a host of other students, to the nearest telephone and order. If you live off campus, consider adopting the first philosophy.

I cant do it either.... Dusty! Can you make an 'O' with your lips?" Women stand atop field of 18 at Elmhurst relays by John Marter The women's track team captured a narrow victory at the Elmhurst Relays last Saturday from a field of 18 teams. In a cliffhanging finish, Parkside was tied with North Central with only the 1600 meter relay left. The race ended with three teams crossing the line with less than a second between them, with Wheaton first, Parkside second, and North Central third. The final score was 74 points for Parkside to North Central's 72. The 1600m relay consisted of Michelle Marter-Rohl, Nancy Marter, Tracy Karshna, and Yolanda Finley. Finley finished the final leg in 56.3 seconds to bring the total time to 3:47.4. The relay team of Jacqueline Cotton, Finley, Karshna, and Becca Scott was first in the sprint medley with a time 1:48.4, and in the 400m relay as well with a time of 48.4. Paula Stokman took the 5000m run in 18 minutes 14.7 seconds. Stacey Kisting and Anne Stokman also scored team points with fifth and sixth place finishes. Another winner was Becca Scott in the 100m dash with a Golfers strong despite winter layoff by Robb Luehr After waiting all winter for a chance to play, the Ranger men's golf team finally got out for the spring season. On April 19, the Rangers played in their first meet of the spring at the Oshkosh Collegiate, an eight team tournament. They didn't seem to show any signs of the winter layoff as they shot a team total 394, good for fourth place in the tournament. It was kind of a full house of scores as two men totaled 77 a nd three scored 80. Dave Wente and Steve Gerber shot the 77's, while Scott Brandt, Steve Jerrick and Steve Miller had the 80's. Four days later, a partial team of Rangers traveled to Lawsonia Links in Green Lake, WI, for a tournament. There was no team score kept for Parkside due to the lack of a full team. Wente led the small Ranger contingent with a (42-37)-79. Miller and Gerber shot identical (41-43)-84's and Brandt had (43-47)-90. This past weekend, the full Ranger team went to Stevens Point for the Pointer Invitational. The Parkside squad fared very well as they finished fourth out of 15 teams. Wente again played the best for the Rangers, shooting a (37-38)-75, tying him for medalist honors with Mickey Gilbert of Stevens Point and Charlie Brown of Stout. Other scores for Parkside were: Gerber, (39-40)-79; Jerrick, (40-43)-83; Brandt, (41- 44)-85; and Miller, (45-44)-89. Rangers gear for playoffs by Rex Jefferson With the school year rapidly coming to a close, postseason play for the Ranger baseball squad is just around the corner. Last weekend, Parkside learned that its opponent in the second round would be Lakeland College, if .the Hangers are able to get around UW-Milwaukee in round one. In order to move on to face Lakeland, Parkside must win one of two games tomorrow against the Panthers here at Parkside. The Rangers currently hold a 2-0 edge in the best of five series against them. If they do succeed, Lakeland will travel here to face the Rangers in a doubleheader starting around 1 p.m. on Wednesday. One game will be played Thursday to determine who hosts the districtfinals that Saturday, most likely against UW-Stout. * * * « * Coming into the week, Armand Bonofiglio continues his hot-hitting, going seven for 12 in the last three games to push his average to .508. A1 Albert leads the squad in runs scored with 30, and has pushed his average to .460, second on the club. Jack Klebesadel has hit in his last 11 at-bats, and has 12 RBI in the last three games. He is currently hitting .415 and is third in RBI with 20. Ken Neese and Brian Gauthier are also among the leaders in hitting. Gauthier's average is currently at .349, while Neese has pushed his to .397. Jeff Lemmermann is leading the pitching staff with a 2.10 ERA and a 5-0 record, while Darrin Pluskota is beginning to get hot with two complete game wins in his last three starts. Steve Leonard is 4-0, while Dennis Oakley is 2-1 to highlight the staff. As a whole, the team has scored 46 runs in its last 14 innings, and has raised its record to 15-5. time of 12.0 seconds. Michelle Marter-Rohl qualified for nationals in the 1500 by winning the race in 4:28.4. Nancy Marter also qualified for nationals with a close win in the 800 with a time of 2: 14.0. Parkside's Veronica Chamlee finished fourth in that race. In the men's meet, Dan Peterson had some impressive finishes. He was the first in the 3000m steeplechase with a time of 9:15.3, and second in the 1500m run with a time of 4:00.1. He also participated in the fourth place finish of the sprint medley. The relay consisting of Pe- 'terson, Dan Vogt, Todd Nommenson, and Todd Brawner finished in 3 minutes 38.8 seconds. Mike Nelson also scored points with a fourth place finish in the 5000.

Parkside threatened to break game two open in the first again, scoring four times on five hits to take the early lead. That stood up until the third when Warrior hitters awoke for three runs off Ranger reliever Steve Leonard. The big blow came on a three-run homer which cut Parkside's lead to one. Parkside responded quickly, though, hitting the paywindow four times, with Jack Klebesadel doing most of the damage on a bases-loaded triple to make it 8-3. Again, Marquette came back, scoring three more time in the fourth to make it 8-6. Parkside opened the flood gates, though. In the fifth.

Men's Tennis Netters finish up and down season at 6-9 by Don Cobb , The Ranger men's tennis > team took a somewhat disappointing 5-9 record into its final match of the season at Concordia College on Wednesday (May 4). The Rangers will more than likely finish at 6-9, adding a probable win against a weak Concordia team that Parkside defeated in its first meeting by a 9-0 score. One would have to go all the way back to April 19 to find the netters' last victory. In that match, the Rangers soundly beat Carthage by a 6- 3 score to raise their record tat the time to 4-5. The only losses for the Rangers in the match were Jeff Stanich's 5-7, 3-6 loss to Dave Antilla; Brian Chike's 2-6, 2-6 loss to Chuck Werve; and the doubles team of Stanich-/ Randy LeCount's loss to Antilla / Werve, 7-6, 1-6, 6-7 (4-7 tiebreaker). The Ranger netters did record another win without even stepping on the court as Carroll College failed to field a team for the scheduled April 20 matchup. The result Was a win by forfeit for the ^Rangers, which raised their record to 5-5 at the time. The men then traveled to Northeastern Illinois on April 25, looking to avenge an earlier 4-5 loss to the team from Chicago. The result was no different as the Rangers dropped a 3-6 decision, with four of the nine matches c , . _ 1980 Ranger Tennis Team From left toi right: Andy Callahan, Kirk Noha, Brian Chlke, Jeff Stanich, Joe Barrette, Randy LeCount. and Coach Dick Frecka, (Not pictured Mark Murray). y cvuum' going to three sets. The loss dropped the Rangers' record to 5-6 at the time. Those matches which went to three sets were number one singles man Joe Barrette's 7-5, 2-6, 1-6 loss to Paul Crane; number one doubles team Stanich/LeCount's 4-6, 7-6 (7-5 tiebreaker), 4-6 loss to Crane / Mike Pacini; number two doubles team Barrette/ Chike's 7-6 (7-4 tiebreaker), 6- 7 (4-7 tiebreaker), 6-4 win over Luke Zuetmulder/Chris Metke; and number three doubles team Kirk "Yannick" Noha / Andy Callahan's 3-6,6- 3, 4-6 loss to Jim DeJesus / Al Aquino. The Rangers then lost a pair of matches by 4-5 scores, the first being to UW-Green Bay on April 23, and the second to Beloit on April 28. The men were forced to play in the "Ranger Dome" (Phy Ed building) against Green Bay due to rain, and the result was a "soggy" performance by the Rangers. Winning for the Rangers were Stanich, Barrette, Callahan, and the number two doubles team of Barrette / Chike. The close loss lowered the netters' record to 5-7 at that time. The second straight 4-5 lo ss came to Beloit (also the second time the Rangers lost 4-5 to Beloit), which dropped the Rangers' record to 5-8 at the time. Winning for the Rangers were the numbers four through six singles players LeCount, Noha, Callahan, respectively. The number two doubles team Barrette / Chike also prevailed, to give the match its final 4-5 score. The men then took a break from dual match play by competing in the alwaystough eight-team Midwest Invitational at Whitewater. The netters managed a sixth place finish, which was a respectable showing, considering the teams' ineligibility and injury problems that have plagued them all season. The tournament featured some of the best teams in the Midwest, with host Whitewater proving to be the best of the lot as they took first. The team returned to Whitewater two days later to take on the Warhawks in a dual meet. The result was a 2-7 loss for the Rangers, which lowered their record to the 5-9 present mark (at Ranger press time - not counting the Concordia match). Pulling out victories for the Rangers were Callahan, in a 7-5, 3-6, 6-3 win over Mike Sauer, and the number three doubles team Noha-/ Mark Murray in a 6-2, 6-2 win over Massa / Foley. The Rangers' probable 6-9 finish (counting the Concordia match) on the season was disappointing, but not unexpected, due to the previously mentioned ineligibility and injury problems. Head coach Dick Frecka had stated at the beginning of the year that if his team finished at .500, they would have had a good year because of his team's problems and the tough schedule they would play. The 6-9 finish was not See Tennis page 16 16 Thursday, May 5, 1988 Ranger sassansffiffiSBassB^^ Lady Rangers primed for District 14 softball tourney by Robb Luehr With tournament time approaching, the Parkside women's softball team has been playing well-make that very well. Up until this past Sunday, the Rangers had been riding a 10-game winning streak. The streak began with the doubleheader against the National College of Education on April 20 and ended four days ago against UW-Green Bay. During the streak, the Parkside margin of victory was at least five runs per game. The NAIA District 14 tournament begins this weekend, and the Rangers tuned up for that last week. On April 26. they hammered the University of Illinois- Chicago, 8-0, for six innings when the rain came, washing out the end of that game and the entire second game. The Rangers were also rained out the next day, but returned to action last Friday and Saturday in the University of Chicago tournament, which actually turned out to be just two more games under their belts. One of the four teams in the tournament backed out just a few days before, so the "tournament" was reduced to three teams- Parkside, Trinity College and the host team. The Rangers played two games on Friday, one against each team. They demolished Trinity 24-0 in six innings, and pounded U-C 6-1. On Saturday, head coach Linda Draft didn't feel the caliber of competition was beneficial to her team so the squad didn't return for the second day of the "tournament." On Sunday, the 10-game winning streak came to an abrupt halt in Green Bay as the Lady Phoenix beat the Rangers not once, but twice, by scores of 3-1 and 2-1. The sudden lack of offensive punch surprised Draft. "I was just flabbergasted." Draft said. "I wondered where this team came from. It didn't look like mine." Later that day.

Women and minorities are encouraged to apply. and UW-Eau Claire will square off in the other semifinal. This year represents a return to form for the Rangers. Last year, the team had an off year, with its record hovering around the .500 mark. After six straight years of playing in the national tournament, which was every year since the tournament started in 1981, the Rangers won the District 14 title, but lost in the Bi-District final, denying them a seventh appearance. This year, they look poised to strike. Draft believes the key to thie turn-around is maturity. Last year, freshmen were called on to replace graduated seniors, and they played well, but lacked experience in the college game. But this season, those players have one more year of experience, and that has helped the team. "Instead of having eight freshmen, we have eight sophomores," she said. Another key, according to Draft, is the confidence the players have in their teammates. "They believe in each other to the point where it (one of them) doesn't get a hit, she knows the next one will. This team is very together. "Our pitching and hitting is better (than last year), and I feel we're the best team in the state," she said.
