The rally which was organ- Izedby ihe April 11 Coalition, siarted at Madison's Library Mall and attracted approxi- mately 1000 students. Adrian Serrano.

Some speakers at the mall were Joanna Richard, Presi·- dent of United Council of UW Student Governments; Tammy Baldwin. Dane Coun- ty supervisor and Heather Ritchie from All People Con- gress. Most speakers urged 1 .. students to contact their rep- 'resentatives and senators and they reminded students to •'help yourselves b.ecause no- body else will." and to ask fellow students to conta.ct congress. . . The April 11 CoalltlOn which organized the event IS made up of many groul?s. Wisconsin Student ASSOCIa- tion Progressive student Net- work, United Council and other Madison groups organ- .ized the coalition. A letter writing table, set up to help students write to Congress to vo~ce ?isse~t about the cuts, fmanCIal aid voter registration a~d other information was avaIlable at Library Mall.

Hauschdd Pizza was given to students who wrote letters to Con- gressmen telling them to op- pose the education cuts at Parkside's financial aid rally was held in Union Bazaar on Wednesday, April 9. Getting students to write letters to their. representa- tives and senators was the main purose for the PSGA- sponsored rally. Over 200 let- ters were written, offering a piece of pizza for each letter. PSG A members walked around to help people write letters while other members of PSGA addressed and en- veloped the letters. Speakers at the rally were Jan Ocker, Parkside g'Inan- ctat Aid Director; Jesse Har- grove, Director of Education- al Opportunity Center; and Acting Chancellor Betty Shut- ler. The speakers emphasized how important it is to write a letter and they also touched on what will happen should cuts go through. -PSGA President Adrian Serrano suggested that stu- dents writing to their con- gressman should tell them to vote for the Andrews Amend- ment. Hargrove said, "this amendment is going to put $1.2 billion back in the educa- tion fund. II - pbolO by Jack Bomhuetter PSGA president Adrian Serrano stamps some orthe 200 let- ters written to Congressmen by students voicing dissent on the impending financial aid cuts. At the letter writing rally PSGA gave advice for writing a letter. Things to do are keep it simple and personal, state you are a student, say you are a voter. and put in personal facts about yourself. Hargrove suggested being di- rect by telling the representa- tives and senators that you will not vote for them if the cuts go through. Some students who atten- ded the rally said they were not being affected, but knew others who wlU be or were worried about being arrected by the cuts In the future. Many students were worried that if they had to get a full- time job that they could not concentrate on school or even attend. Most feli the rally was a good Idea. PSGA senator J.J. Mathe- son said that the rally Is a good way for a student to pro- test because a violent protest may put one in jail, where one wlll not do any good: Photo by Hans .buscbUd Students marched down State Street in Madison to protest reductions in financial aid. . 2 Thursday, Aprll17, 1986 Nobody asked, but.•. Financial Oldis important issue Hans W. Hauschild South Africa needs our sup- port too, but I feel the people of the United States should help themselves first. It seems the U.S. wants to help others before we help our- selves. I have never heard of another nation helping the U,S. The rally in Madison was about cuts coming from the government, which are going to affect everybody, not just financial aid students. I think we should help South Africa. but help ourselves first, so we will have help and support to give others. It sure is strange that in Madison over 500 people marched in an apartheid demonstration, yet only about 150 people marched in a fi· nancial aid demonstration. It just doesn't seem right to me that there were more demonstrators for South Afri· ca, a place on the other side of the globe, than there was for a financial aid rally, which includes cuts that will affect everyone here in the United States. Don't get me wrong. I feel Letter to the editor Earl turned yellow To the Editor: Remember the old saying, "If you can't stand the heat,' get out of the kitchen" ? It takes a strong leader to uphold a measure that is cor- rect but unpopular. It is obvi- ous from what has transpired over this last week that Gov. Anthony Earl is NOT such a leader. Earl had for two years· stood solid on keepIng Wisconsin's drinking age at 19, only to back down at the eleventh hour. It doesn't mat- ter that the national 21 law will be economic suicide for an already-ailtng Wisconsin business climate, which will lose an estimated $9 million in state liquor and sales taxes and another $160 million in lost revenue annually. It doesn't matter that the law violates the 10th amend- ment of the U.S. Constitution, whIch states that "The pow- ers not delegated to the United States by the Constltu- tion ...are reserved to the states respectively, or to the people." It doesn't matter that the law was tabled in this session of the legislature fair and square. No, it doesn't matter. Just one week ago, Gov. Earl was strongly opposed to the 21 age. Now he states that raising the drinking age "may be inevitable." Earl has made an appalling imper- sonation of a spineless jelly fish by bending his political stance in order to sway votes. Earl says he doesn't want to make "a political issue" out of the 21 age, but by creating a "special session" of the leg- islature in order to run this bill through before his bid for _ .. re-election in November, making a political issue out of it is exactly what he is doing. With the date set at Sept. I, the Wisconsin 21 law conven- Iently goes into effect one month before the national compliance deadline. It's unfortunate that Gov. Earl has wimped out so late in the game. I believe a lot more people support the 19 drinking age than the polls show. Earl's weak-kneed polio tics will cost him many votes _ including mine - from' his true supporters. So, who loses? Every Wisconsin taxpayer and every U.S. citizen. From now on, Wisconsin will have to come up with $9 million more tax dollars every year, which can mean only one thing: higher taxes. The annual $160 million loss of state business is another nail in the coffin of Wisconsin's economy. In just five years, this state will be over $850 million in the hole. Beyond that, the rights of every U.S. citizen are com- promised. By allowing this unconstitutional bill to pass, we are breaking the chains of the bureaucratic monster, giving us even less control of our own government. God only knows which of our con- stituilonal rights is next to go. We have seen Gov. Earl's true colors, and they're all yellow. He is too weak to stand up for the politics that made him a good governor. For the rights of this state and its citizens. it's obvious that Earl cannot stand the heat, he should get out of the capitol. HOW NOT 10 SlOP TERROR\SM. Letter to the editor Time again to "Save the Library"- resulting from a large pro. jected budget deficit threaten library collection devetop. ment at Parkside. The 1986-87 budget doesoot start until July I, 1986, and no new book or periodical orders~ will be sent until that date un- less additional funding be- comes available. Althougb we, the faculty, staff and stu- dents at Parkslde,' cannot hope to raise the $30·$40,000 needed to keep up new book Letter see Page 8 creasing In numbers. This week there were fewer than 20 volumes added to our col- lections. In the very near fu- ture, the shelf will be empty. The last order for new books was sent more than two .months ago because the li- brary budget was totally committed. Last week I was told that books which had been order- ed will not be accepted by the library because there are no funds to pay for them.

An aware and very concerned student was disturbed by several events in the election. In ·an effort to prevent future discrepancies five allegations were brought against the election. Two of the charges dealt with posters supposedly within 50 feet of the polls; two charges were in response to alleged vote-solic- iting and the final charge was that pollsters did not check student IDs. The matter was sent for review to the Spring Election Committee and they in turn sent their advice back to the new Senate. The Senate decided to take no action on the first four charges because we felt that either the proper action had already been taken (posters removed) or the charges were not "solid" enough. On the fifth charge, however, we found that IDs were not checked and for that the sen. ate is publicly reprimanding the Spring Election Commit. tee. Besides the reprimand. thanks to this concerned stu, dent, we are now reviewing the entire election process, Perhaps changes should be made, mainly in the area of "checks and balances." It was not easy for the senateto .- decide on an issue directly re- lating to its being there. I hope that we handled this problem in the best formate and that we can avoid future problems.
