Shaw resigns UW-System post Series Number The series number of the original collection. UWPAC124 Ranger News Text Any textual data included in the document W University of Wisconsin-Parkside Ranger Shaw resigns UW-System post by Dan Chiappetta News Editor Kenneth A. Shaw,52, has resigned as UW-System President, and will be taking ova* as chancel- Kenneth Shaw lor and president of Syracuse University, a private school in New York. Shaw's resignation came a day after he encountered major questioning by the Legislature's Joint Finance Committee members concerning the UW-Systems use of $18 million that was granted to Shaw in 1987 after his plea thata n expansion of classes and courses was being sought by students. The legislature was angered after a state audit was recently conducted that showed class offerings did not increase to 990, which was promised by Shaw, for which 328 new positions were funded for in the UW-System in 1987. Only 302 new classes have been created on 15 UW campuses. Shaw was hired as UW-System president in September of 1985. He will Start his new position at Syracuse on August 20, replacing Melvin A. Egger, who will retire on August 19 after 20 years of service. Shaw has been frustrated of late because of lack of resources and authority to get things accomplished as UW-System president Shaw has also been involved in a budget struggle with the legislature and Governor Tommy Thompson. He has been asking for an additional $40 million which he believes is necessary to maintain quality in UW-System campuses. Shaw's resignation has also been referred to as "double the pay, and less the headaches." As UW-System president, Shaw earned an annual salary of $116,115, which is the maximum allowed under UW-System rules. A car and large home was also provided. As chancellor of S yracuse University, Shaw will receive a car, $200,000a year salary, and a large home. Replacing Shaw might be more difficult than one expects. Being president of one of the largest university systems in the country, with UW-Madison and many other UW schools being leaders in research, to find a replacement may may cost more than the annual salary of $116,115 allows. "The fact that the position of system president is vacant can put the UW-System in plenty of trouble. It will probably be at least a year before the position is filled," commented PSGA President Ken Schuh Kenneth A.Shaw earnsanannual salary of$J 16,115, the maximun allowed under UW-System rules. Shaw's salary is considerably less than other comparable University State System Presidents, as well as UW-Madison employees.

Newly elected Presilent George Yee, Vice-President irenda Wilson, and Secretary Steve Dberst were inducted into office ecently and are already making >lans for their upcoming terms. Yee joined SOC as a member >f P SE (Pi Sigma Epsilon) and ierved as SOC secretary this past rear. Wilson is returning as Vice- Yesident, a position she held durng the 1990-91 year. She repre- ;eiited the College Republicans on JOC. Oberst comes to SOC from VPO (Alpha Psi Omega). "There will be a lot of work to George Yee do this summer," said Wilson. 'We will need to review the SOC constitution, revise the Budget and Review Committee guidelines, and update the student activities club directory." President Yee stresses that SOC does not simply allocate money for club functions, but serves as a tool for inter-club communication and interaction. "Many c'ubs work together on major campus events such as Food For Families, Toys For Tots, and Save the Earth." These activities and others are represented as committees within SOC. The Parkside radio station, AIDS committee, "The END" picnic, and Bacchus Spring Break campaign are also represented.

First, the smoking policy. If the smoking policy was approved by Chancellor Kaplan today, it would allow smoking in the Union Square and Rec Center, Main Place, and half of the Coffee Shoppe. This is unrealistic. How well do you think this policy would flow? They should either ban smoking on campus or allow it because it would be impossible to enforce both. What are people going to do when others are smoking in the concourse, the bathrooms, and half the Coffee Shoppe? Do you really think that members of the academic staff and faculty are going to quit smoking in their offices? I doubt it! I can just see Campus Police catching an administrator puffing away on a smelly old stogie in his office and then wrestling him to the ground as they take him into custody. There will be plenty of controversy floating around as soon as non-smokers catch a whiff of second hand smoke. Perhaps this is a decision that the students themselves should make. They could make this decision next fall by having PSGA run a referendum on the ballot of fall elections. We should remember that the students comprise die vast majority of thec ampus population and thus should bea llowed a say in what directly affects them. Secondly, we need to address the problem of remodeling the Student Union. When the project was originally bid on, iti ncluded both the Union Square and cafeteria. But now,b ecause the bid came backh igher than expected, we will be lucky if Union Square is remodeled by fall. It's about time that someone in Madison stuck a crowbar in their wallet and shelled out a few schekels so that wcea n have an up-to-date campus, instead of settling for an outdated project that was designed for the sixties. Thirdly, all student organizations should be located in the Student Union instead of being scattered all over the 700-plus acres of God's green creation that this campus owns. After all, it is our Student Union, so we should be located there. If you go to any other campus you will find that this is where the student organizations are located. The bureaucratic B.S. with finances within the UW System is such a joke that UW System President Kenneth Shaw recently turned in his resignation to accept another position out East. He apparently figured that the UW bureaucrats woe too busy practicing rectal-cranial inversions to help System. Shaw quit so that someone else could deal with the headache. Perhaps if we gotrid of a few bureacratic chowderheads it would break up quite a few logjams and save some of their grossly inflated salaries to put tob etter use in the system. These dweebs are more interestedi n putting on "dog and pony shows'* for the media than doing their jobs helping students. Maybe it's timef or a little spring cleaning. We should start immediatelys o that we can save moreo f your hard earned tuition dollars. To the Editor: In the 25 April edition of Ranger, Linda Rawlings-Dregne offers herexperienceof being "Colorless at Parkside." I would like to commend Ms. Rawlings-Dregne for her courage and determination in pursuing a difficult chain of events. And I would like to take this opportunity to say "farewell'' to a fine editor of this publication, Craig Simpkins. Future editors are left with a great role model. The rest of this letter is to Ms. Rawlings- Dregne publicly. Continued on Page 4 The teacher who taught Once upona time, there wasa kingdom which believed that anything good happens to someone else.

Then, one day die kingdom awoke to find a computer that thinks, and more than that, a computer that feels, and more and better than that, a computer that works. The people questioned themselves.

May 2,1991 Opinion Ranger, Page 3 The Devil's Advocate # Nursing program is source of unlimited opportunity by Donald R. Andrewski The question seemed simple enough. "What are you going to school for?" As I rerun a mental checklist of why I was subjecting myself to seemingly endless nights of study, test anxieties and working for reduced wages, the reason is as clear tome now as it was when I decided to return to school "Job security, good pay, benefits and opportunities for advancement and personal growth," I replied. She continued, "But why nursing?" "Why not?", said I. "I can't think of anything more rewarding." For the majority of students of UW-Parkside, the consortial nursing program is perhaps the best kept secret on campus. For me and scores of others it is our ticket to the future. One would have to be a hermit not to have noticed the increasingly severe shortage of nurses in this country. A glance at the Sunday paper's classified section will show just how extensive is thed emand for nurses. I've also had people question my reasons for coming to UWParkside for the nursing program. These people are quick to recommend thatlgetadegree atGateway Technical College, even going so far as to claim that Gateway's program is superior to that of UWParkside. Of course, I consider these claims to be ridiculous. While I contend that people in Gateway's program hav e every right to feel that they have a good program, the proof, as they say, is in the pudding. Consider the facts. Gateway only offers a two-year associate degree; the UW-P consortial program offersafive-yearBachelorof Science/Nursing (BSN) degree. It should be immediately apparent that the additional three years of intensive education should account for something. Secondly, while an associate degree can get the student into the work force three years faster than a BSN, the pay isn't as good as a BSN graduate receives. Also, the graduate with the BSN degree will have more and better opportunities for advancement in administrative circles. BSN grads are often put in charge of associate degree nurses. Thirdly, opportunities abound for the BSN graduate, who can then go on to do graduate studies in Anesthesiology, Doctor of Nursing, Nurse Practitioner, and scores of other highly specialized fields. In my case, I will do graduate studies in anesthesiology courtesy of the U. S. Army, and the sky's the limit It is clear that there is no comparison between the two nursing programs. As far asl'm concerned, the Consortial Nursing Program here at UW-Parkside is the best place to begin laying the foundations of your future. All of you non-declared majors should seriously consider entering theUW-PNursing program. The virtual guarantees of a "write your own ticket" degree greatly surpass the prospects some people face as they graduate with a degree that they cannot use due to oversaturation of human resource pools or decline of said industry. I would especially encourage more men to enter the nursing program. Thenumbers are growing, but there is always a demand. Contact the Consortial Nursing Program at 553-2480 and talk to advisor Ann Boyle about an exciting and rewarding career in nursing. Also be sure to patronize bakesales and fundraisers by the Student Nurse Association- Parkside (S.N.A.P.). They are really super people and deserve our support Never forget that one day we will all be patients. So be kind to nurses. We literally cannot live without them. Parkside Student Government Association Students feel cheated over spending discrepancy by Craig Simpkins PSGA Senator The following is a news release from United Council, Madison, WI. If this issue or any other issues pertaining to this campus irritate you, stop by our office and voice your opinion. We are here for you, the students. If you don't express your concerns to us, we will think everything is running smoothly. Obviously, that will never happen. Madison—Students around the state are outraged today by a report released by the Wisconsin Legislative Audit Bureau. The report suggests that the $18.6 million dollars set aside toh ire newf aculty members to expand general course offerings were misused by some of the campuses in the University Wisconsin System. In the last biennial budget, students were forced to accept Enrollment Management when the UW adopted this access limiting-policy. This cutting of students, coupled with funding from the legislature to reduce class size and increase section offerings, was the UW's promise to increase quality within the University Wisconsin System. The report points out, however, that this promise was blatantly broken. The report shows that UW officials recently told the legislature that 328 recently hired instructors were teaching 990 sections. In reality, the UW System dropped 688 courses already in existence; this makes the total number of courses added 302—not 990 as promised by the UW System. This deception by University officials has left students feeling angry and cheated. United Council Legislative Director Lance Walter stated, "We have questioned the policies of enrollment management and were told earlier that class size has decreased by one student per class since the beginning of that policy. We questioned then whether we were getting what we were promised, and this audit suggests that we are not" The University's continual use of the word "quality" to describe their educational goals, combined with the threat that lack of funding will automatically affect "quality", is being considered too simplistic by students throughout the state. Elliott Madison, Shared Governance Director for United Council, said that "the UW lied about the number of classes being offered, cut students, and charged the state $18.6 million dollars to do it—all under the banner argument of "quality". Students feel that they have been used and cheated out of stateapportioned funds," Madison continued. This Legislative Audit has been released at a particularly critical point in the UW budget process. Students.ledby United Council, continue to fight to keep tuition low, but are being threatened with further enrollment cuts if the UW does not receive the funding it deems appropriate. This audit may be placing students in a no-win situation, all in the name of quality education. "The people involved in the process need to remember that students were the ones hurt by this mismanagement of funds, and we need not hurt students again in the process of solving this problem," stated Charles Chen, United Council's Academic Affairs Director. United Council's Legislative Affairs Director will be meeting with members of Representative Krug's staff to discuss the details of the audit United Council of U.W. Student Governments is the oldest and one of the largest state student associations in the nation, representing more than 140,000 students for over thirty years.

Ranger, Page 4 Opinion May 2; 1991 Letters to the Editor Continued from Page 2 I am sorry that you have had further insult from society in addition to what you might presently be experiencing as a differently abled student As a member of society, I offer you my sincere apology for what i s happeni n g t o you. lam a member of the group served by CECA, although you a nd others probably don't see me as a woman of color. My personal life is not readily apparent to most folks, and I get damn tired of constantly being the dissenting voice when it comes to issues of race and class. But dissent is what furthers knowledge, belief and learning, so dissent I will. Through an administrative error in data entry, and probably a reluctance to face up to embarrassment, you were given social status as a black person and then that status was taken from you, with no small amount of insult to your rightful achievements as a person who, it seems to me, wishes to be recognized as useful and capable despite obstacles which would likely overwhelm others. I think you are right in ask ing for that recognition—and I have said this before, CECA should be addressing issues of all oppressed people, regardless of racial and ethnic background. So, in that sense, I agree with you. In another sense, however, I would like to point out that you are not unlike most white people when they notice that people of color are standing together in solidarity and applauding one another for our hard work. You feel excluded because of your color, "a member of the out-group." What you describe is what most "different" folks feela t some time or other, this time it is because you are white. Also, because the data entry for your racial identity said "black," you got listed for recognition based on a perception of you. You seem to be saying that if the perception includes your physical ability, rather than your racial identity, then you accept the label and the applause. When the criteria of color is adjusted to reveal whatyou call "colorless," then the criteria is wrong and no one deserves to have any special recognition. I don't know how to remedy that, except to say that if I say congratulations to a fellow student of color, I don't automatically thumb my nose at white students. Society operates on an either-or model and it's hard tolo ok past that sometimes. You say that everyone at Parkside has an equal opportunity to achieve success. In theory, that seems true. In practice,something else often happens. I could point to your experience as an example of that As long as you color is invisible— white—you are operating in a frame of reference that d oesn't include color. • You are achieving and succeeding beyond s ocial "expectations." Perhaps it's those "expectations" we need to change. Individual achievement is used as a weapon that serves those who want to blame individuals for personal failure to live up to an expected norm. In thepast people of color have been "expected" to fail and some professors still believe that I have a very black friend who noften gets asked if she's actually doing her own work. The assumption, by some professors, is that she couldn't possibly be so intelligent and articulate. I look white; I often get to hear racist comments that are very unexpurgated because people assume it's OK tos ay racist things to another white person. We get judged as individuals who belong to a particular group and we are expected to conform to that group's stereotyped behavior. In your case, I'm guessing that you have expected that you would get recognition from another oppressed group based on some type of empathic understanding. That appears not to have happened. We leave behind our oppression very slowly, we often oppress others in the process. We often fail others as we ourselves succeed. I'm truly sorry that this has happened to you. Sincerely, Mary Dunnington Ritchie To the editor: It was funny to me that the woman who was denied recognition at the T.C.B. banquet was only upset at her personal loss (vanity) and not that the C.E.C.A. was distributing potentially (if true) racist material. I guess that is only Gen (human, mankind) nature. I wonder if the animals discuss in theirbanquetof spring how badly gen has treated them and what changes have to be made to stop this injustice and inequality? It's a good thing the animals can't understand our language and how we treat and think of them. While walking by the woods behind Comm. Arts Theatre I had a few other thoughts about nature. I wonder if the robin's song is one of woe? Singing to all who care to listen how bad the life of arobin is? Or if the goldfish think they are superior to the bluefish therefore deserving to be fed by them? If female dogs think their mating position is degrading? Or if sows tell male pigs, "if you lose a few pounds I'll consider a roll in the hay." Or if the female mallards think they are more attractive than the males. Or if crows "caw" cause they feel ignored? Did the dinosaurs become extinct because they quit making love with the opposite gender? Are fish so stupid that they bite a worm on a hook and get killed and eaten by gen or are the teachers the schools pay to educate them too busy reaearching how t o teach the fish not to bite the worm on gen's hook? If chipmunks in their mating ritual say,"make love? ButI hardly know you." If a gen is killed in the Ranger and nobody reads it will all the typewriter keys' taxes increase? Do park pidgeons die if gen ceases to feed them bread? I wonder if Gen ia a part of nature at all. Timothy Christoffel To the Editor: This letter is in response to Linda Rawlings-Dregne's letter regarding her experience with the Center for Educational and Cultural Advancement (CECA). Linda, you claim that CECA is a racist organization. First of all, since you misplaced your American Heritage Dictionary and your Webster is outdated, I suggest you buy a good dictionary. This could benefit you during your academic career. My New Lexicon Webster's Dictionary, which is current by the way, defines racism as " the assumption that the characteristics and the abilities of an individual are determined by race and that one race is biologically superior to another a political program or social system based on these assumptions". Based solely on this definition, you have made an inaccurate statement by calling CECA racist. You see Linda, CECA does not view students of color as being superior to whites, therefore, CECA is not a racist organization. In fact, while CECA focuses on students of color, it also provides services to all students. Yes Linda, there have been many white students that have used CECA's services. About now, I predict your thinking to yourself "why then does CECA exist?". Simply put, Linda, theansweris: it exists because there is a need. You see Linda, if we go back to the definition of racism, that one race perceives themselves as superior to another and we give this some deep thought, we can see that throughout history (well maybe we should focus on U.S. history, since I wouldn't want you too deep in thought) whites have thought of themselves as superior to people of color. Moreover, this attitude was reflected in U.S. laws. Today, welcome to the world Linda, there are still people that feel this way. Today, if we look at retention rates of college students nationally, we will see that overall whites have a fifty percent retention rate while minorities have only a twenty-four percent retention rate. Therefore Linda, while you may believe that "every student has just as much of a chance to succeed as the other...", the reality is that there is a need for services, such as CECA, that focus on helping minorities succeed. Are you getting this Linda? I'll explain it to you in a different manner. I work at the Women's Resource Center (WRQ in Racine. WRC provides services to women who are victims of domestic violence and sexual assault. Now Linda, because WRC only serves women, this does not make uss exist Why is there a program for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault for women and not for men? You see Linda, now pay attention THERE IS A NEED! By the way Linda, did you know that women also were oppressed throughout history? Perhaps, while your pursuing your academic, career at Parkside, you may want to take some history courses to expand your mind which appears to be limited in it's thinking capacity.

May 2,1991 Spotlight Ranger, Page 5 Learning Assistance and Counseling Part IV: Overview by Tod McCarthy Copy Editor Learning Assistance and Counseling, the subject of this column for the past few weeks, is a complete service network under one roof. The arrangement and alignment of the office at UW-Parkside is unique to the University of Wisconsin system. All major personnel of the division perform prescriptive advising, in addition to the other various duties they are committed to complete. The sub-divisions of the office consist of Counseling and Testing, Learning Assistance, Student Support Services, and die Career Center. All of die aforementioned services have been examined in die recent series of features, with the exception of the Career Center, which was highlighted in an earlier edition. The Student Community Service Program, supervised by Carol Engberg, is also housed in the same area and offers valuable opportunities for students to serve in local communities. Learning Assistance and Counseling services are directed by Carol Cashen, who has aptly guided the complex of student services since its restructuring, which will be outlined shortly. The main priority of Learning Assistance and Counseling is as "a support unit for everybody," according to Cashen. The range of services are not designed to meet the needs of any specific class or category of student Nearly all students will seek assistance from the office during their collegiate careerss, and attempts to erase the image of it being a remedial service have been increasingly successful. Learning Assistance and Counseling, as we know it today, evolved during the era of Assistant Chancellor Michael Bassis, who was succeeded by Assistant Chancellor Gary Grace. During the middle of the last decade, Bassis restructured and realigned a total of thirteen services into eight new components. After the consolidation, Learning Assistance and Counseling consisted of the Career Center, Counseling and Testing, and Learning Assistance, to be joined by S tudent Support Services Director Carol Cashen Bassis also eliminated the adult student services component of the area, but to the credit erf the staff in the realigned departments, effective attempts to serve that population have been ongoing. The mix of programs is designed to provide a full range of services, and as Cashen states, "We are constantly looking at improving the quality of our service." Changes continually occur in the UW system and at Parkside, and Learning Assistance and Counseling is no exception to that requirement. Grants must constantly be rewritten to support provided programs, and sophomores may be subjected to a battery of tests in the near future. The possibility also after its birth in 1987. At that time, exists that placement tests may be replaced by ACT's or another standardized examination. Non-traditional student needs are also of increasing importance at this university. "We know that adult students have different needs," said Cashen. To accommodate those needs, all services she administers are provided during selected evening hours. Math problems are widespread, especially for women returning to the university. Adult students often haveextensive family responsibilities and are subject to different schedules. They often have different priorities that may affect their collegiate careers. After all, nontraditional students are the majority, comprising over 58% of the present student population. Our numbers are ever-increasing, we do have needs, and we will be heard. Another population whose presence is rapidly increasing is that of the disabled student Many have multiple disabilities, further complicating the matter. Middle and High Schools are now doing a credible job of mainstream ing, thereby creating additional opportunities denied the disabled student for too long. Learning Assistance and Counseling has been aided by increased faculty and administration support, and it has used experience gained over the years to develop a program using that knowledge of general student needs. In plain words, it works. According to a recent report containing pertinentstatistical data about Learning Assistance and Counseling, over 10,000 contacts are made with students each year. Only 8.4% of those contacts were the result of basics skills courses, 31.1% were in the performance of prescriptive advising, and the lion's share, a total of 60.3% of all contacts, were dedicated to other than remedial services. Only 14% of the hours expended by the office were devoted to remediation, with over 80% being non-remedial in nature. Programs such as Supplemental Instruction, ARC services, and services of the Career Center often serve high achievers and all elements of the student population. Talk about myth explosion... At least 8500 tests have been administered to approximately 5800 students during each of the past few years. GPA averages of prescriptive advisees have risen to 2.41, an increase of .36, over the past four semesters. The rate of retention into the sophomore year actually exceeds that of standard advisees. The Career Center has experienced a steadily increasing traffic flow, and usage of SIGI PLUS has dramatically grown. All of the facts and figures point to one conclusion—Learning Assistance and Counseling services have been exceedingly successful in achieving their goals. If you'd like competent, friendly service with a smile, need someone to talk to, or would like to begin planning your future or addressing other academic concerns, take advantage of the services offered by Learning Assistance and Counseling, located in the D-l level of WLLC. You have everything to gain. Period. Next Week's Spotlight: The Ranger in retrospect Ranger. Page 6 Opinion May 2,1991 New SOC officers Continued from Page 1 ganization,PaiksideAduItStudent Alliance.

Currently there are fifty clubs participating in SOC. b <r Continued from Page 4 another party, speak to that party directly first It is uncommonly harsh to resort to your strongest weapon first in this case the printed word. Often people are not aware that they have offended. We all have our faults, but I would not want mine brought to my attention by seeing them printed in the paper. I am nots aying thaty our experience is invalid or that how you feel is unwarranted. But I do ask that you offer these women the respect any person deserves and talk to them directly. If you really want change it is better to try to create a friend than an adversary. In my experience these women are kind and efficient, but overworked. In their place I am not certain I would be able to remain calm and patient hour after hour, day after day. If they had known how strongly you felt concerning their manner, I feel honestly that they would have made an attempt to work with you. But if common courtesy lacks on both sides, what is gained? Delaine Rogers To the Editor: So far, only one individual has expressed to me an overall negative reaction toward my feelings and acusations written in last weeks Ranger, the director of CECA. Here are some quotes: "It was inapropriate to make the acusations you did." "We have a special grant that gives us the right to operate CECA.." "The money doesn't come out ofy' our' pocket."'There are other campus groups that offer things like scholarships to 'other* students." "You should come in to read our policies." "This banquet is for Parkside's students of color..." "Why didn't you just go to the Chancellor?"... I may ask to speak with the Chancellor about this after finals. Of the campus groups that offer 'other' students scholarships, find me one that offers recognition to caucasion students only, and I will write abouttheir discriminatory acts as well. Linda Rawlings-Dregne To the Editor: It's incredible what people are capable of doing when they are willing to cooperate with others and contribute theirt alents to worthwhile causes. As I'm sure most people at UW-Parkside have realized by now, a university is only as exciting as its members are willing to make it, noot nly for themselves, but for the public as well. This past week I had the opportunity to attend two of several events taking place on the UWParkside campus. Both events reconfirmed my belief in people and their unique gift to share individual ideas and tal ents with others in both educational and entertaining efforts. I'd like to begin by thanking the Communication Faculty and all of the members of the Senior Seminar class who made last Thursday's conference a huge success. Who would have thought that learning could be so much fun? Let's do it again next year! Secondly, the Theatre Department deserves a standing ovation for their incredibly entertaining and thought provoking performance of Stud Terkel's "Working." Thanks go to all who contributed to the success of this musical both onstage and off. (Can I have your autographs?) Finally, I'd like to thank all of the individuals involved in organizations on campus for contributing to UWParkside's success this past year. The campus would not have been the same without you!

Despite scoring in only three of the fourteen offensive innings on the road, the UW-Parkside Rangers were within a batter of sweeping the Flames of Ul-Chicago Circle. It was in game one whereth at one batter made the difference. After falling behind by a 10-1 margin, the Rangers came up with seven runs in the seventh before the Flames could control die Ranger fire and hold on for victory. Circle built their lead on the heals of seven stolen bases and thirteen base hits, seven off of Ranger starter, Kelly Zielinski. Zielinski lasted only 3 1/3 innings on the day, yielding five runs to the Flames before giving way to Jeff Konczal. The Flames went to work on Konczal, scoring three times in the fifth on three base hits, a stolen base, and a sacrifice to buildu p an 8-1 lead. The Ranger hitters weren't doing much up to that point They scored a single run in the second, but had bases loaded with nobody out and couldn't cash in any more. In the fifth, Circle starter, Dennis Trollian fanned the side as it looked like he would cruise for the victory. Especially after the Flames tacked on two more runs in the bottom of the sixth off of the third Ranger pitcher, Jason Holt Ah, but what was said about' the safety of leads in baseball? UW-Paikside'slivingproofof that statement started in the seventh with five consecutive walks issued by Jim Cenzen, who relieved Trollian after the fifth. When Cenzen did get something across the plate, Marc Thompson was there to greet it, to the tune of a tworun double. Dominic Delrose was next with a two-run single, followed by Mike Caccioppo's run scoring single. Suddenly, it was 10-8. Greg Green, representing the tying run, followed with the Ranger's fourth straight hit, putsee Rangers, B3 Rangers stop skid during busy weekend By TED McINTYRE Asst. Sports Editor When the week began, the UW-Parkside Ranger Softball team was in need of a win. In serious need of a win. Coming into the week the 11-16 Rangers were carrying a seven game losing streak and before they got their much needed wins, they had increased the streak to nine games. The Rangers played a total of six games from Wednesday to Monday and split for a 3-3 record, typical by the team's performances this season. Friday the Rangers played a doubleheadder at National Lewis College IL and dropped two. Beth Hansen gave up eight hits while the Rangers gathered seven, two by Rachel Sielaff and Sue Palubicki for three runs in the 4-3 loss. Lewis got a run i n the second, third, fourth and fifth innings to spark their win. Game two sawUW-Parkside's Jeanie Esselman give up two first inning runs on a Lewis home run which boosted Lewis past theRangers in a 5-4 game. Down 3-2 in the fifth, UWParkside came back to take a 4-3 lead on a Tara Carlson homerun. The lead did not hold however as Lewis manufactured two in the seventh to get the win. Friday the UW-Parkside Rangers faced Northeastern IL, andfinally broke the nine game losing streak with two wins of 6-4 and 5-4. Laura Stock scored twice and got three hits for the Rangers. Hansen got the win for UWParkside scattering seven hits in giving up two in the fourth and sixth. Game two saw the Rangers score three in the fifth to boost Esselman to a 5-4 win. Northeastern scored all its runs in the sixth on a base hit, a hit batsman, a triple and a single. After Saturday's games atPets Park against Loyola college woe rained out the Rangers played Sunday against UW-Whitewater and split a twin bill 6-3 and 1-4. In game one, Esselman took to the hill once again and gave up scattered five hits for the win. The Rangers capitalized on a big seventh scoring four on two base hits by Tracy Pecs and Palubicki, a walk and a fielders choice. Game two had UW-Parkside's Hansen give up three runs in the second and one in the fifth for the 4-1 loss.T he Rangers, aren ow 14- 19 on the 1991 season.

Pjl'C B2 Tougher rules needed to awaken college recruits By DAVID Columnist In a meeting with the executives of the National College Athletic Association a number of Division I college basketball coaches recommended the NCAA adopt tougher penalties for athletes who are caught taking illegal payments for participating in athletics. They also recommended that athletes who are not eligible to compete under the NCAA's Proposition 48 rule be banned from taking paid recruiting visits to colleges. These are both good recommendations and should be adopted by the NCAA as soon as possible. Many athletes in high school today assume that they will participate in athletics in collegea nd eventually become a professional. Because of this they do not take their studies seriously and find themselves ineligible to compete in college athletics their freshman year under the NCAA's Proposition 48 rule. To be eligible an athlete must maintaina 2.0 grade point average. They must alsos core 700 or above on theS AT or 18 and above on the ACT. The rule is a good one because it will encourage the students to study in high school Banning those who do not meet the standard from taking paid recruiting visits will only do more to encourage them to do well in school. Most of these athletes will not become professionals and a good education will be important for them later in life. Some athletes think that they should be paid to participate in college athletics. This is illegal and when a school gets caught paying athletes it is severally punished, but thea thlete themselves are not. It is about time the athletes start assuming some of the risk when they accept illegal payments. Athletes who are caught taking illegal payments need to be banned for life from collegea thletics. College is a place to geta n education not a place to get paid to play sports. Tougher penalties are what is needed for athletes to understand they need to study before college and they are not going to get paid in college. The tougher penalties will benefit both the athletes and the schools. Jl TinaCWord... By: JEFF LEMMERMANN Sports Editor When baseball went bankrupt... "Daddy, I know whaIt wantt o be when I grow up." "What's that, Billy?" "A professional baseballp layer!" "Oh, Billy, why would you want to do thaf? You'd be poor your whole life." "No I wouldn't, dad. I read in a magazine from school about a baseball player who made seven million dollars, just for playing one season. Look, I've got it right here." "Let's see that 'Dave Justice, the seven-million dollar man.' I remember that That must have been ten, fifteen years ago. Sure this is from May, 1996. That was two years before baseball went bankrupt'' "Bankrupt? What's that?" "Bankrupt is what you are when you have no money." "And all the players ran out of money?" "No, the people who owned the teams ran out of money. You see, back when this article was written, a lot of the players were making over four million a year. In fact I think the average majorleague salary was almost two million a year." "So, what happened?" "Well, did you know there used to be baseball on regular T. V. and on ESPN?" "Really!? Every night? "Just about The people who put those games on T.V. paid lots of money to all the teams to do that" "Enough to pay all the players, right?" "More than enough, but that was the problem. The owners started to pay the players more and Guest ArticCe Ranger racewalkers among nation's elite By Karen Pitsoulakis Guest Writer Have you ever wondered what some of the University of Wisconsin- Parkside students were doing on Innerloop Road at four o'clock in the afternoon with the temperature 30 below zero wearing oily tights, a sweatshirt and racing flats? The answer... racewalking. Racewalking is an aerobic exercise in which contact with the ground must be maintained at all times. This differentiates racewalking from running. The lead foot must touch the ground before the rear foot leaves the ground. The supporting leg must be straight when it passes under the body. Within this framework, racewalkers efficiently pump their arms in coordination with each step, producing a smooth and fluid stride. Racewalking events have been part of the Olympic Games since 1900. The distances varied in the early years, but have been set at 20 km.(12.4 mi.) and 50 km.(31.1 mi.) for men. Elite men average 6:30 per mile over the 20 km. Olympic distance, and approach 7:00 per mile over 50 km. Women average 7:00 per mile for 10 km.(6.21 ml) more, and when one player received a lot of money for playing, some of the others wouldn't play until they got as much or more than that player." "But, the article I read said players signed contracts to play for lots of years." "Well, the players still wouldn't play until they wore paid more, and the owners woe dumb enough to let that happen. It got so bad that half of the regular players wouldn't show up until the season started. The owners kept spending and spending, thinking the T.V. contracts would keep getting bigger. "They didn't, did they?" sighed Johnny. "Nope, the T.V. stations were justbreaking even on the contracts, so they wouldn' t pay more and risk losing money. When that happened, the owners were in trouble." "What did they do?" "They tried a few things. They tried charging people for each game that was televised, but that made less than the old T.V. cbntracts. They tried putting advertising on the player's uniforms, but that caused problems. What really messed things up was when they started to raise ticket prices to foot the bill. Prices got so high that only rich people could afford to go, and see Final Word, B3 Parkside's racewalking team is composed of athletes from Wisconsin, Indiana, New Jersey and New York. The team is currently ranked the number one college in the United States for racewalking at the National level for male and female junior walkers (undo* age 20). They are also ranked number one in the country fort he Open, in which anyone who meets the qualifying standard time may enter. Last year at the National Athletic Inter Collegiate Association, Parkside's team swept the top six all American places out of 19 athletes participating in the race. This year Parkside's team has the ability and potential to take the top eightplaces, the most allowed from any one school. The two distances for which Parkside's team strives are the 10km. and the 20km. Robert Cole and Tim Seaman of UWParkside have walked a six minute mile. This time is faster than most people would hope to run. UW-Parkside has produced two Olympic caliber athletes, Jim Hiring of the 1980,1984, and 1988 Olympics and Andy Kestner of the 1988 Olympics. At the helm of all of thigs success stands the coach, Mike DeWitt. He is the reason why UWParkside is at this national level. DeWitt began the program in theearly 1980's and has progressed steadily since then. He himselfis a dedicated racewalker and walks with the team every day through all types of weather, while making sure that practices are completed correctly by his athletes. Ali Dewitt of Parkside's racewalking team says, "I feel that DeWitt is a good coach, because by practicing with the team, he stays young. Some people might see him a strict coach, but that's only becauge he's interested in his team and if'something is lacking from one's racewalking, he tries to help them out." "Part of the reason why we have such a good program at Parkside, is because coach (DeWitt) trains with us and that is something special that not many people have," said racewalker Tim Seaman. UW-Parkside racewalker Rob Cole summed up DeWitt's accomplishments,"Coach (DeWitt) is one of the greatest coaches in the country, simply because his athletes have a lot of confidence in him,". Outlook on playoffs simply Bullish By JIM IVEWUVB Columnist It has been 6 years since Chicago has won an important National Championship, and it looks like we won't have to wait that long for another one. The Bulls have shown that they have a knack for knocking-off the Knicks by dominating the first two play-off games as well as destroying them during the regular season. In fact, the Bulls are looking good enough to win the conference, relatively easily. The next team into the stadium will be the 76ers. The Bulls shouldb e able to take thiss eries in four games. The 76ers aren't healthy and the Bulls are, but aside from that, the fiesty 76ers will surely get themselves into foul trouble early. After that the Bulls should see Detroit, a very unhealthy team. Detroit has gone a long way to prove that they can't do it without a healthy Isiah Thomas. Edwards and Aguirre are also suffering from chronic back problems. Then the Bulls lose home court and go on to Portland. Portland is tough, but I still have faith in the East as a tougher conference than the west Bottom line: Bulls in five over Portland. \iii\ 2. iwi R; in»e r .

A lead-off single was erased when catcher, Ron Bills, tossed out continued from front page ting runners at the corners with nobody out. But, just as the safety of leads is uncertain, so is the life span of rallies. This one died on a come-backer to the mound off the bat of Kyle Knothe. The Flames turned a double-play on that ball, keeping Caccioppo at third while putting the clamps on the run away rally. One batter later, Circle had a 10-8 victory and their eyes on a double header sweep. UW-Parkside's five-run second inning said otherwise. Thompson had the big blow again, lacing a three-run double with two-out He was tossed out at heme, trying to score on a Delrose single, but the Rangers had built a 5-0 lead. Starter, Jeff Fenrick made that last until the fourth, when Circle produced three runs on just two hits, making it a 5-3 game. In the fifth, Circle challenged Jason Jarsombeck trying to steal, but the Flames still managed to get runners on first-and-third with two away. That chased Fenrick to the showers, but Ross Kalinowski came in and shut the door the rest of the way. He got Steve Hall to bounce back to the mound to end the fifth, worked a 1-2-3 sixth, and used a double-play and a fly out in the seventh after a lead-off single, to end the game. It was a good thing, because the Ranger offense, after its five run outburst, was silent the rest of the way with the last ten batters going down in order. The win evened Fenrick's record at3-3, with Kalinowski earning his first save of the year. Zielinski, the loser in game one, dropped to 4-3, and the Ranger record currently stands at 15-9. Final Word Baseball closes continued from page B2 those weren't the type who would normally go to baseball games." "So. nobody went anymore?" "Right, and empty ball parks meant empty pocket-books for the owners. Since they still had money to pay on the big contracts they were giving to the players, one-byone, teams began to fold. It started in the smaller cities, but soon, the entire league went under." "What did the players do?" "The good ones collected what money they could, then went to other countries to play. Some of the others stayed here and tried to start new leagues a couple of years later. Not a lot of people would come out to watch, though." "You mean leagues like theR yan league?" "Exactly. A few of those leagues are still around, but the players ride in busses all over, and they don't get very much money. Now, people go to soccer games and World Football League games. Everyone was fed up with greedy players and owners, so they let Major League Baseball die." "Dad, will baseball ever come back?" "Not for a while, son, not for a while."

My sympathy goes out to their families. War sucks, plain and simple. Currently, I am living in the desert in a tent 1 am doing a mission that involves guarding Iraqi POW's.

Most of these people hadn't been fed in weeks, and some had thrown down their weapons and walked south until they ran into Americans. One soldier said that he and his friends walked 60 miles through the desert, with no food or water, to surrender. It was a crazy war. Hopefully, we will not see the likes of this again in our lifetime, or our childrens lifetimes. The things I saw were mild in comparison to the front line soldiers. I have seen no dead, nor do I want to. You, at home, have seen more of the war than we have, as news is a mixture of rumor, Shortwave radio (BBC) and Armed Forces Network. TV's kind of hard to come by in the middle of nowhere. If you've ever thought that you woe in the middle of nowhere, and you were not in the desert, you were wrong. The weather here can best be described as dicey. One day it is hot - we've already had a 104 degree day, and the next day it is 65 degrees and cloudy. The desert's weather has no rhyme or reason to it. It is 100 degrees by noon, and 60 degrees by 7:00 pm., and sand storms kick up for no really good reason. A sand storm is an awful thing to be in. First of all, it is painful. Imagine a giant trying to sand you with a really coarse grit sand paper. S econd of al, dust gets everywhere. Unless you are hermetically sealed, you will be coughing up funny chunks of things for a few days. The worst thing about sand storms is that they usually last two days. They play tennis, and we are the net. They blow like hell from the north one day, and then blow like hell from the south the next I think this is to make sure we are completely saturated with sand. From the rumors, snake season is also right around the corner. Oh joy. We really haven't had a problem with critters, but someone did squash a scorpion by the showers. This has prompted the lot of us to start wearing combat boots out at night when nature calls. Flashlights that frantically scan the ground for anything crawling are a common sight at night Our motto is, if it crawls, slithers, or hisses, kill it, or leave it alone. Well, that's all for now, hopefully we will be back near the first of June, but that's just a rumor.

Thanks UW-Parkside for a great Year! Meachem Rd Racine Ranger, Page 12 News May 2,1991 Graduate business program revised Press Release Revisions in the University of Wisconsin-Parkside graduate business program designed to improve the preparation of graduates for broad-based business management were announced by Beverlee Anderson, dean of the School of Business, Tuesday. Coursework leading to the masterof business degree (MBA) will provide study in all functional areas of business, preparing graduates for general management responsibilities. Courses will be offered in the evening on a regular schedule, enabling working professionals to complete an MBA in a minimum of three years. "We have made significant changes in the master's of business administration program," Anderson said. "The changes will improve the accessibility, consistency and overall quality of the graduate business degree at UW-Parkside. All revisions are consistent with curriculum standards of the American Assembly of Collegiate Schools of Business." The revisions are the result of a two-year comprehensive study by the university's business faculty with input by the Community Business Advisory Board. "Incorporating advice from local business leaders, we are confident we have a graduate business program that will provide a greater service to the business community and our student constituents," Anderson said. Program revisions include a more concentrated array of business classes in the areas of accounting, management, economics, finance, marketing and organizational behavior. The revisions provide a standardized curriculum that is in line with the broad-based nature of MBA programs at most other institutions, according to Ronald Singer, chair of accounting, finance and information systems, and chair of the MBA Committee. "The core curriculum will offer students graduate coursework in all functional areas of business and provide a rotation of courses on a regular schedule allowing the working professional realistic graduation timelines," Singer said. "We've reduced the number of electives offered, providing greater focus on competencies reflective of a generalized MBA. Fmthennore, the revisions will help insure that all students of the program have common competencies going into the core curriculum." The broad-based program consists of a core of nine courses,; (27 hours). Core courses will be offered during each academic year—four in one semester, five in the other. Elective courses win also be offered during the summer session. Graduate students will choose; two elective courses, out of the ten offered on a rotating basis. All ten electives will be offered during a two year cycle. If two classes are taken each semester, and all prerequisites are met, the program can be completed in three years. Other revisions include additional refinements in course prerequisites through undergraduate : coursework and/or competency : tests in the six functional business areas. According to Anderson, students with an undergraduate degree in business will have satisfied most prerequisites. Students currently enrolled in the business administration program will not be required to take additional credit hours and will be able to complete their degrees without interruption.

Inventive presentations make math a memorable moment for many . . . « • a . • « « i 4 L ! - 1 * ^ a m » k A . . . . by Mona Shannon . I l l « L . . . J . ! * . 1 * L « . . feature writer Many people believe that anyone seriously interested in math must be a serious and therefore boring person. Math Professor Thomas Fournelle could change their minds about that. He takes math seriously, but often with a sense of humor. When he was asked to participate in a program at The Prairie School in Racine, he arrived on stage in the persona of Professor Bubble. Wearing a lab coat and rubber gloves, he carried a bottle of glycerine, which he uses for making bubbles. He told the audience it was the most volatile substance on earth —one slip and the whole building would be destroyed. He then tripped and fell, screaming into the wireless mike. After explaining that it was only a joke, he blew huge bubbles and explained that the bubbles try to close but can' t because of the air inside. That is why they form a sphere. To demonstrate, he made all the Prairie School math teachers line up on stage, then he put a rope around them and pulled it tight forcing them into a circle. To the delight of the students, he left the teachers tied up. Fournelle uses humor in his classes at Parkside, but only when it helps to make things clearer for the students. He says the most important thing about teaching mathematics is to explain so that the students can understand it This often requires repeating something several times, until the students grasp it Humor helps hold the student's attention. Fournelle is doing research in group theory. His research involves looking for very basic explanations for complex phenomena. He finds this carries over into the classroom, and he tries to find new and simple ways to explain math to his students. He starts each year fresh; he doesn't use the same notes from year to year. In fact, he usually doesn't use notes at all Fomelle's students like his classes. Initially, they will say that his classes are easier, but on second thought, they will realize that they work very hard in his classes. Then comes the recognition that his classes only seem easier because he explains things very clearly. It is important to Fournelle that students understand math so that they can make an informed decision about whether it will be a part of their lives. "These classes are keys thatopen doors for people. The idea is to make those keys accessible to the students. When they are done with the class, I say here is this key." It is the student's decision whether or not to use the key. "If they are not interested in math and they understand it, fine. If they're not interested in it just because they can't do it, then they are not really making a free choice. I want to give them an opportunity to make a free choice." Math is not Fournelle's only interest. He enjoys playing the blues and early rock-and-roll on his neon green electric guitar. As a graduate student, he wrote a song about the math department with one verse for each member of the department He says he hasn't done that at Parkside. Last year he participated in the silent auction held to raise money for science scholarships. He proffered his winning bid in a performance of 'The Cheesecake Blues." Of course, he was bidding on a cheesecake. May 2,1991 News Ranger, Page 13 PSGA "Outstanding Delegation of the Year" Latesha N. Jude egation who shows leadershipa nd News Writer The Parkside S tuden t Government Association was named the "Outstanding Delegation of the Year" during the monthly meeting of the United Council in April "The PSGA delegation went above and beyond the normal call of duty in participating in activities of the UC," Brenda Leahy, current president of UC, said.

Jude and Thad Jensen for President's Committee, Senators Jill Jensen and ChairR ika Morishita for Women's Affairs Committee. The honor recognizes the delextraordinary contributions for work with UC. These are some members of the delegation who had nearly perfect attendance throughout the year. The group was also commended for their participation i n the United States Student Association Conference held in Washington D.C. in March. UW-Parkside students attending were Eric Bovee, Daniel, Jude, Linbolm, and Morishita. At this conference, students from throughout the country discussed the Reauthorization Act, which affects p roper loan-grant balance, special services, adequate policy and information dissemination on student aid, needs of middleincome students, elimination of student aid fees, and elimination of linkage of extraneous requirements to student aid. Simplification of the application processes, college work-study improvements, elimination of delayed disbursement of student loans, penalities for the working students, and others.

In addition, Daniel was named as the "Outstanding Committee Member in the Director's Committee." He was cited for his extensive work «i UC issues. UC is the voice of the students within the University of Wisconsin System. Each month, schools send delegations to discuss activities of their campus and issues regarding the UW System before the State Legislature. Meetings rotate to a different campus each month. UW System schools are also encouraged to send a minimum of seven delegates to each meeting. Delegates are usually chaipersons of such committees as Academic Affairs, Directors, Legislative Affairs, Minority Actions, Presidents, Shared Governance, and Women's Affairs. Workshop set for renters The Office ofResidence Life wiD be sponsoring a Fair Housing Workshop on May 10th at 12noon in Rm.207of the Uni ver-; sity Union. The workshop will feature Ema Bosemonte of the Racine Fair Housing Program. Issues to be discussed include how to protect yourself from housing discrimination, what to do if you think you have been discriminated against, and legal obligations of the tenant and landlord, i The workshop will be of par- | ticular benefit to the first-time renter, many who experience discrimination and/or landlord-tenant conflicts.

Walter named president of United Council Latesha N. Jude News Writer Lance Walter, former Legislative Affairs director for United Council (UC), was named president of UC during the organization's April meeting held at the University of Wisconsin- Marathon in Wausau. Walter, of St. Paul, Minnesota, defeated David Jacobs of UW-Green Bay and Tim Roelling from Superior. Walter's appointment is effective May 1 and runs through the 1991-1992 academic year. He intends to make his term productive by working closely with students and state government bodies.'! plan to unify students and direct our energies toward a more directed lobby effort at the Legislature and the Board ofRegents," Walter said. "The reason people elect a president for UC is because they need a person with the experience to get things done. They want a person who must work for results." UC, formed in 1960, is the state association for students in the UW System and is one oft he largest student research and lobbying groups in the nation. Walter, a 1989 Marketing graduate of UW-Eau Claire has been involved with UC since 1990, when he was named legislative affairs director. In 1988, he was elected vice president of the organization. During his involvement with UC, Walter has been involved with several legislative bills. He worked on the passage of Act 98, a bill allowing 20 year-olds to rent motel rooms. He also was involved with the passing of Wisconsin ACT 177, formerly called AB 431. This bill mandates that the UW System provide information and statistics on the number of sexual assaults and harassments thattookplaceon campus, as well as information about what to do if you are assaulted and harrassed, such as where to go. Most importantly, the bill provides a definition of sexual assault The bill has to be distributed in written and oral form during all Freshmen Orientations and it has to be given out to all students and faculty every year. "Lance should do a wondeful job," Brenda Leahy, out-going UC president said. "He has experience working with UC and will be able to get things done since he is famflar with the systems. He also has a good reputation for working with students and that will be a great asset for the work UC needs to do in the upcoming year." HEALTHY BENEFITS FOR HEALTH CAREMBAS.

I started in the middle of the year at a new school I was from the city and I had a lot to learn about the country. I was in a place where the hip things in life were pick-up trucks, horses, rodeos, guns, and of course, cowboy hats. I was not used to this style of life. But little did I know that I was going to learn quickly. First days at new schools are always freaky. You never know what will happen and th e strange things always seem to take control And if you've moved around you know what I'm talking about, and believe me, you never get used to going to a new school for the first day. But, (compared to other first days of my past) my first day went relatively fine. I decided who I wanted to hang out with and who I wanted to find out more about. I found out who was the tough guy to stay away from and I found out what teachers were pushovers. (The tough kid, by the way, was a bully who really belonged in 4th grade. He was said to be tough because he broke the teacher'se raser in half. I told everybody that it didn't take any strength whatsoever to break an eraser. Well, the word spread around that the new kid thought that he was the toughest guy in school so the big hulking flunky greeted me the next morning with h is fist, landing a solid punch in my face. So I beat the crap out of him and neither he, nor anybody else, ever gave me a hard time at that school (So the second day didn't go over so well with the administration, but let's back up again to the first day.) I was feeling confident that I had made a good first impression as I stepped onto the bus slotted to take me home. (Little did I know that the next day's fight was already being plannedatthatmoment. And I soon learned how f ast information can be passed around In the most twisted and warped ways possible.) I felt good and somewhat comfortable around my n ew surroundings. I was quickly adjusting to the new accent that I heard twang from everyone's mouth. My new residence was a mere five miles from school and my ride was almost over. The school bus was quickly approaching my house, but the driver did not slow down. I began to sweat a little. The driver had forgotten about me. "This is my stop!" I stated. The bus kept hauling down the road. "Stop! I live here!" I began wondering if the driver was going to kidnap all the kids on the bus and bury them alive in the coal mine down the road. Whoosh! The bus whizzed past my house. My life was fleeting before my eyes, and I was too young tod ie. Butnoother kids were panicking and they seemed to ignore my distress. "Stop! Please! Stop! I live back there!" I shouted. There was no response. I wonderedi f I was to ever see my dirt bike again (my only prized possession). My thoughts raced. What was I to do? Should I sneak forward and clobber the driver with my books to stop the bus? Should I just ride the thing out? No way. I was getting off, there were no two ways about it I remembered where I was, in the country, in the mountains. I was no longer in the city. Things were different here and something clicked in my brain. A door opened to a little room in my brain. I remembered what life was all about here, like pick-up trucks, horses, rodeos, guns, and of course, cowboy hats. "Whoa!" I commanded and fell forward in my seat as the bus screeched to a halt Everyone's eyes were upon me. I hads uddenly broken through the barrier. I hopped off die bus and walked the half mile the driver had overshot Anytime life is going too fast or that things are out of control and someone is pushing you over the edge; do what I do. Pull the reins and shout ina deep voice", Whoa!" Community Service Announcements HELP PREVENT HEART ATTACKS AND STROKES.
