Sports Writer
- One might say that it was an
irony of sorts that the Stevens
Point hockey ~am gained the
1989-90 NCAA III National
Championship by defeating
Plattsburgh (N.Y.) State.
That is, if you consider the fact
that just four short seasons ago
most of the Stevens Point hockey ~am was sitting in front of
the television watching highlights from Plattsburgh State's
frrst National Championship
and second c:Onsecutiye title
game in a row. ,
Regardless of the paradox involved, the ending couldn't be
sweeter for the UW-SP hockey
team or the Stevens Point community as they witnessed the
Pointers grab a 1-0 nailbiter on
Saturday night to capture their
second consecutive national
title.
Stevens Point, to the surprise of
· many, including the Pointer
players, made easy work ofPlattsburgh in the opening game of
the best-of-two championship
series by pounding the Cardinals 10-1 ~· Friday evening.
"I think it really shocked us as
a team when we won 10-1," said
senior winger Shawn Wheeler.
"We played a really solid game
on Friday and I'm sure _they
played about as bad as they
could have played."
"After Friday night's game I
told the team that this is a six
period series and all we had really accomplished by a 10-1 victory was winning the first three
periods," stated head coach
Mark Mazzoleni. "I think the
guys realized that they still had
to play good hockey to win be-cause Plattsburgh had to be a
very strong team to get this far."
The Pointers vaulted to a 3-0
lead on goals b~ Paul Caufield,

In an attempt to stop the bleeding, the Cardinals replaced Les
Sirota in the net with Dave Kocsis. Stevens Point just added insult to injury though, as senior
defenseman Craig Porazinski
scored a power-play goal less
than one minute later.

Take Back Th·e Night
by Molly Bernas
News Editor
"Breaking the silence," is the
theme for this year's Take Back
the Night rally and march
scheduled for Wednesday, April
4.
Take Back the Night is an international event which began
·in England in 1977. This will~
· the first such rally and march
held at UWSP in 10 years. It is
being co-sponsored by the
Women's Mfairs committee,
. the Women's Resource Center
and Mfmnative Action as part
of the week-long National Campus Sexual Assault Awareness
Week.
The purpose of Take Back the
'Night, according the Deb Gustufson of the Women's
Resource Center, "is to raise
awareness and educate people
about the problem and the
prevalence of violence toward
women. It is a protest because
it still exists yet. It's a celebra-
tion because we have the
capabilities to make women and
men aware of the epidemic
proportions which have been
kept quiet too long."
The rally will run from 5:307 p.m. in the Sundial, behind the
Learning Resource Center. The
march will wind through the
campus.from 7-7:45 p.m.
Shekere, a reggae band, will
perform in the Program Banquet
Room of the University Center
following the march until 11
p.m. The band will be free to
those participating in the rally
and march, and $2 for the
general public. ntere will be

and march at the Campus
Childcare Center.
Speakers at the rally will include:
Chancellor
Keith
Sanders, Mayor Scott Schultz,
Senate Majority Leader Joseph
Strohl, Nancy Bausch and Mary·
Martin of the United Council.
In prelude to the rally and
march, assistant district attOrney

Prizes offered in
census drive
A contest is being conducted
with $900 in prizes this week to
encourage University .of Wisconsin-Stevens Point students
to fill out their federal census
questionnaires.
Brenda Leahy, president of the
Student Government Association, said there is concern that
many students could be missed
in the census this spring, and if
that happens, the city and county lose a large chunk of fecieral
aid.
Each person listed in the census generates . about $3,400
during the ensuing decade for
local units of government.
The university has an important stake in a complete count,
too, because appropriations of
student financial aid money are
based, in part, on the data.
The contest will be held at the
of WisconsinUniversity
Stevens Point University Center
from 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Thursday
and Friday as a means of collecting data form off-campus students. Residents of dolmitories
on campus will be counted
without having to fill out forms
themselves.
prize money is from a state
grant that City Clerk Barbara
Kranig . helped the students
receive. She is coordinating the
census in Stevens Point.
People who do not return census forms that were mailed to
them Friday will eventually be
visited at their home by a
government-employed
enumerator. However, by the
time those visits are made, the
semester may be over and many
of the students may be gone.
"That's our big concern," according to Kranig.
Kranig applauded the contest
idea, observing that identifying
just one student who would
otherwise not be counted will
pay for the prizes nearly four
times over. ·
All students living in off-campus housing Portage County
are eligible to participate.
A booth will be set up on
Thursday and Friday in the Concourse at the Re&erve Street
entrance to the University
Center. After census forms are
brought there for . mailing,
names of the students submitting them will be placed in a box
and drawings for two winners
will be conducted each hour.
Winners may choose either
$25 in cash or $25 in gift certificates -to be used in payment
toward Wisconsin! Public Ser- .
vice bills or for 1groceries in
local stores.
At the close of the contest at 4
p.m. Friday, all of the previous
winners' names wi be returned

Wanted: New Pointer· Editor.

A
Welcome back to reality after
W a week off for R&R. To those
of you that jUst went home for
break and did nothing really exciting I can sympathize. For
those of you that were stuck here
in Point (where conditions at the
university resembled those of a
ghost town) I 'give you my pity.
It is my sincere hope, by, the
way, that those of you that went
anywhere south don't develop
skin cancer or have skin
wrinkles before you are 26.
In any event, counting this
issue, there are only seven

in the Pointer office in room 104
of the Communication . Building. They will be due back at the

other, has both good and not so
good features. One good point
is that the Editor-in-Chief has

newspaper, a paper with a circulation that includes ·both the
campus, and the surrounding
community.
major scandals, and, general
pu1>lic opinion of the Pointer is
more favorat?le and positive
than it has been in a while.
Once you become editor you
get to hire your own staff of section editors, business and advertising managers, graphics and
design editors, photo editors,
photographers, and typesetters.
You get valuable experience in
interviewing people from the
interviewer's standpoint instead
of the interviewee's standpoint,
where most college people are
stuck.
As editor you will have the
most powerful means on campus to make your opinion
known. Not even the President
of SGA has such power to reach
out and get their opinion known
to their fellow students.
The editor also controls a
budget in the tens of thousands
of dollars. This year marked, by
the way, a turning point in
Pointer funding in that we have
gotten rid of Student Government funding. The budget we
turned in for next year's operations is funded solely through
advertising and subscription
revenue so next year's editor
will not have to worry as much
about SGA trying to step in and
try some dumb power play.

We can't afford to not fill out the Census
Dear Editor:
The 1990 Census is upon us
and we as students need to fill it
out. The Census is particularly
important to students for many
reasons, one being financial aid.
The effect of not ftlling out the
Census could mean decreased
fmancial aid to all students. If
not properly counted, students
could also lose representation
locally due to reapportionment
in Congress. Reapportionment
· is the re-drawing of Congressional lines after each Census is
taken to make sure each persOn
. is represented equally in the
House of Representatives. Wisconsin is in danger of losing a
seat in the House to Florida if we
don't take 15 minutes to fill out
the Census. Wisconsin is considered a "Donor" state as it is
which means we pay more in~
the federal government than we
get back, and to lose any amount
of federal funds because we
didn't fill out the Census would
be hurting our own cause.
· The figures of not filling out
the Census are startling. For
each one percent of the population that does not take the time
to fill out the CellSus, it will cost
the taxpayers of the United States
$10 million to count them by
going door to ·door. It is estimated that it will cost the
average person $3,400 over a
10-year period to gather data on
the people who don't fill out the
Census._ If you figure that 100

Off-campus students are not
counted at home. thev are
counted in Stevens Point. So to
make it easier and more appealing to the students to fill out the
households don't ftll out the
Census, that number adds up to
$340,000 lost to the Census that
could have been used for
programs such as health or
education. We can't afford not

InpUt on smoking sought by senator
Dear Editor:
This Thursday. SGA will
debate something that is sure to
raise tempers. SGA will .be
taking up the issue of smoking
in the U.C. Probably no other
issue, except drinking on campus, is able to raise the wrath of
students the way the issue of
smoking does.
This is not an easy issue to
debate. Nonsmokers usually
don't take the tiilte' to rriik.e .
themsc;lves heard. This is a rare
occasion where if you want to
speak out, you can be heard.
Whether you support or oppose
smoking, it would be . nice to
hear some student input.
As an SGA Senator, I find
myself constantly ;onfronted
with students asking me why
smoking is not allowed in the
LRC or academic buildings, but
is allowed in the U.C. It is because· orstudent requests that I
brought the issue to. SGA. As
the author of a resolution that
would severely limit smoking in
the U.C., I expect that this issue
will raise tempers on both sides
of the issue. I would hope, as all
legislators do, to hear from stu. dents who have something constructive to contribute. It would
be nice if some students who
read this were motivated
enough to want to come and
speak to SGA (Thursday, 7:15
PM, Wright Lounge UC). I'm
not naive enough to believe that
this will happen tcJ any great degree, but I want to at least try to
inform students, smokers and
nonsmokers alike1 that the opportunity exists for your input..
It would be a shame if students
felt that this issue isn't important enough to get involved.

March for peace
Dear Editor:
In the early 1980s, the U.S.
government began a policy
which was ostensibly to fight
communism and to bring
democracy to El Salvador. To
date, the government has spent
$4 billion in this tiny Central
American nation.
But what has really been
gained by this investment? Are
the people of El Salvador better
off! Here are some facts: in the
past 10 years, 70,000 ~al-
vadorans have been killed; three
out of four now live in poverty;
half of the children have no ac. cess to schools; nine out of 10
people have no access to clean
drinking water. These are the
resultsofU.S. interventioninEl
Salvador.
The Portage County Peace in .
..he Americas Committee is a
group of local people who
believe that U.S aid to the
government of El Salvador is
destructive and immoral. On
March 31~ this group has organized a march in rememberance of those who have died
and in support of those who are
suffering because of the U.S.
.government's policies.
By
marching, we will be calling
upon the government to end
military aid to the government
of El Salvador. This march is
one of many tha.. will take place
throughout the country.
The march begins at 12 noon

OUTDOORS~---CampUs enacting !
recycling program
The University of Wiscon- ·
sin-Stevens Pont compiles
1,100 tons of wastepaper each
year, and only one percent of it
is recycled. The rest is put into
landfills.
In an effort to lesson the
amount of waste it is discarding .
each year, UWSP is enacting a
campuswide
recycling
program.
Since September, the university has been continually integrating more buildings into
the program, and by~e end of
March, all campus buildings
should· be involved, according
to Geny Burling, chair of the
campus recycling committee.
The program still in its infancy stage, began at UWSP for
two reasons, said Burling. First,
a state legislative action says
state agtrncies must recycle 50
percent of all office paper; and
second because a recent Portage
County/Stevens · Point
ordinance spells out materials that
can no longer be put in landfills,

.ECO-BRIEFS
by Timothy Byers
Sta.f!Writer
I hope you enjoyed your
spring break. I know one group
'o f students that did. The Eagle
Walkers made the trek from
Point to Eagle Valley for the
ninth year last week. The nineday event will probably end up
netting the Wisconsin Nature
Conservancy more than $6,000.
The Walkers themselves will
collect nearly $3,000 and , the
Wisconsin
Match
Grant
Program will double ·· the
amount. ·
The weather was not bad for
the Walkers. It was sunny most
of the time, but it never got really warm staying for the most
part in the 30s and 40s. The
wind made for a lot· of ruddy
faces too, but this intrepid bunch
made it through all adversity
and are now back home with a
job well done!
~
While we were gone, Alaska
made some news with the Valdez oil spill. Captain Joe Hazelwood was found not guilty of
most charges and was convicted
of only one, a misdemeanor related to the spilled oil. These
rulings should point out that
there is no one scapegoat for the
Prince William Sound disaster.
· Exxon was at fault for building
tankers less soundly than they
could and also for running ships
with smaller crews than in the
past. The Coast Guard did not
warn the vessel it was out of the
channel. But maybe a lot of the
blame should go on us, the oil
consumer. If we didn't use so
much of it .the pressure on
developing oil reserves in
fragile areas wouldn't be so
great.
~
Sikors~ers offered
a $20,000 prize to the first team
to design a human-powered
helicopter some time ago. To
win you have to lift off and stay
off the ground for one full
minute above three meters. A
machine created at California
Polytechnic may claim the
money soon. The Da Vinci III,
a pedal-powered helicopter
lifted off for 6.8 seconds in
December. Bike racer Greg
McNeill provided the power
and is hopeful the Cal Poly staff
will soon have Da Vinci IV or V
ready for a try at the $20,000.
~
And from the ~eginnings of .
Human Powered Adventure
ftles.... It was 35 years ago that
two L.A. surfers wanted to see
the Grand Canyon. Since they
didn't have a bdat or much
money, they decided to swim
the canyon. They loaded rubber
bags with food, wore wool long
johns and swim flippers and set
off. They finally emerged 26
days and 280 miles later, somewhat bruised, battered, and cold
but nonetheless ready to do it
again.

·A prime example of a nasty
pesticide is DDT. DDT does a
good job of killing pesty insects.
DDT alSO' has a tendency to
bioaccumalate in upper level
predators. As a result, b(lld
eagle eggs became so thin that
they were unable to support the
weight of their incubating
parent. Eventually DDT was
banned in this country.
In the never ending quest for
profits, American firms have
chosen to export some pesticides banned from use in this
country to our friends in the
developing world. They may
live in different countries but they still live on the same globe.
These pesticides are still affecting us.

we have inflicted upon the earth,
we will ftrst need to change our-

negative impact on the environment.
This is strange because of all
the species on earth humans are
supposedly the most intelligent.
Is it intelligent for a species to
soil its own nest?
In the past concerned individuals voiced their displeasure in the manner of our
treatment of the world. The
majority of the population ignored. They were dismissed as
people who would rather live
with wolves than people.
Thankfully, we eventually
listened to the voices in the
wilderness and have decided
.collectively, as a society, to
clean up the environment.
Politicians now call themselves
environmentalists. Concern for
the environment has reached
mainstream America.
Now all that is needed for
our concern to be transformed ·
into positive, decisive action.
Action, not just a flurry of

was provided to citizens of
Stevens Point during the evening so that they too could
benefit from the presentation.
As part of the Project Survival event, a survey was sent
home with each 5th and 6th
grader in the Stevens Point
School District asking parents
their attitudes on certain environmental issues. The results
of that survey were publiShed in
the local newspaper. When
questioned about what the most
serious ~blem facing the
human race was, the majority
surveyed said pollution was the
number one problem. The
breakdown in moral standards,
overpopulation, and the threat
of nuclear war were ranked as
the second, third, and fourth
most serious problems.
So what were you doing 20
years ago? Just a glimmer in
, your parent's eye? Well, this
time it is your chance to take
part in a happening which will
have the same impact on society

Census 1990 -- finally the homeless count
'
byAly Ge Xiong
Contributor
The Census Bureau has finally
attempted to count the homeless.
One has to support the effort
and hope it at least comes close.
· It is necessary to fix some point
of reference in this issue, if only
to establish a common base for
the argument over whether the
point of reference is accurate.
The claims have been so wildly distant from one another that
it has been impossible to shout
across the chasm, much less
sot>erly discuss just what the nation ought to be doing. To hear
some advocates of the homeless
tell it, you would think there aJe
more homeless than homed.
The Reaganites insisted there
was only one homeless guy who
ran around from city to city
sleeping on grates and loving it.
The census, of course, will
fmd something in between and
even with most of the efforts,
defenders concede, the tally is
bound to be short. Only 15,000
headcounters were deployed
nationwide, and some of the
to their succor. They haunt
street comers, ragged and foul.
They sit, backs against the
building, with dead or demented
eyes. Some stand quietly with
hand-lettered signs, "I will work
for food."
Of all that is bad about those
scenes, perhaps the worst is that
they have calloused the rest of
us against their horror.
You learn to look the other
way, or simply; unblinking, do
not see. You step around the
homeless, drive by them
without thought. Many of us

that by such private effort, even
by heroic private effort, we cannot solve the problem. At most,
we can only soothe a few hurts
- worthy work but no answer.
The homeless are the result of
conscious national policies.
The nation essentially stopped
building public housing when
Ronald Reagan went to the
reclusive homeless were left unrousted.
It is easy to sympathize with

Pointer baseball incomplete
by Kevin-crary
Sports Editor
If head coach Mike Ruechel
was to grade the performance of
his 1990 men's baseball team on
their performance in Tennessee
last week, he would probably
give them an incomplete.
The Pointers returned with a 27-1 record (the tie "was due to a
game called because of darkness), but Ruechel admits that it
. wasn't a true indication of how
his team played.
"Except for the late innings, we
played very well," he said. "Our
goal was to come back at least
.500 and to realize that we can
compete- at this level. We fell
short but we could have .won
more, we just lost too many ·
games in the later innings."
Four of the Pointers' seven losses were due to late inning
come-from-behind scores by
their opponents.
·Tennessee Weslyan swept
Point with a six-run seventh inning in the fJrst game (8-7 fmal
score), and a game-winning
homerun in the seventh inning
of the second contest (2-1 ).

Baseball strikes back
-by Tim Wentworth
Sports Columnist
The bOys of summer are getting set to return. Or maybe
they should be called the million
dollar men. Whatever the case,
. bats are swinging, balls are
flying, and muscles are tearing
as cries of the disabled list are
being
heard
everywhere.
Baseball is back.
All the deliberations that
began on November 28 are history. After 34 bargaining sessions, the second longest work
stoppage in baseball history·has
ended at 32 days. Players and
owners fmally got close enough
to lock hands and end the often
bitter debate which had
threatened the 1990 campaign.
And so on April 9 the first pitch
· will be thrown, and a season of
- ' different rules, different rosters,
and an unclear schedule will
swing into action.
. With "American Pastime"
back, the smell of spring has
been put back in the air. This is
the only time all year when
baseball is a g~e. In April,
even Atlanta might be in first
place for awhile: The ballparks
are full, the crowds are cheerr ing--all is well in the dugout. In
time though as spring turns into
summer, the cheers tum into
boos as ERA's rise higher than
smoke from ,grilling brats and
batting averages dip lower than
three digits. The smell of spring
is now an unpleasant aroma.
With all that the game can
offer, one can hardly forget
what the lockout has done. Do
athletes who now will make a
nurumum salary of lQO
thousand dollars and as much as
four million annually deserve
all this attention? Do we, as
fans, forget about the greed and
money that caused all this? Do
we head to the ballpark to see
our high priced heroes without
ill feelings?
The game of money is only
going to get bigger and fought
over. This is the seventh labor
dispute, and more will be on the
way. How long will it be before
we have the return of the six million dollar man in the fonn of
pinstripes? How long before
another player-owner dispute?
The game of baseball is an

present salary structure, the sky
is the limit. The recent agreement is only a putting down of
arms until later conflict.
In light of all this jumble, it's
time t6 play ball. For the real
fan out there, it's about time.
The smell of spring 'is back in
the air. The brats are ready to

Saturday
And against Lincoln
Memorial, two six-run rallies in
the fifth and sixth innings in the
first meeting (19-14) and a tworun eighth in the second game
( 10-9), again left Point just·short
of another win.
The tie game was the result of
two Bristol Univ~rsity t'uns in
the fmal inning.
"We are j1,1st not playing a complete game," stated Ruechel.
"We're playing the first three
quarters of the game and winning. What we need to do is
play an entire game, and once
we do that we will be a very
good team."
The Pointers showed just how
good they can be when they
fmished the trip with a 16-11
victory over nationally ranked
Carson-Newman. The win was
very important to this year's
Pointer program.
"Winning the l~t game on the
trip made the team realize that
we can play with- and beat ~y
team we-face, •• said the ftrst year
head coach. "It proved that we
do know how to win."
The trip also proved to be a
very good indication of where
the Pointers stand when considering the upcoming conference race.
"The competition that we faced
in Tennessee is ·very similar to
the competition we will be
facing in .the conference," said
Ruechel. "Our goal this year is
to win the conference, and if we
can put together complete
games -- a complete game
meaning offeDS;e, defense, and
pitching ~- we can win it."
The Pointers are a young and
inexperienced team as they are
at times playing six freshmen
and have only one senior (Dave
Twaroski, pitcher) that was on
last year's sqUad. But this
year's team has actually performed better than the more experienced teams of the past.
"The numbers on the board are
actually better than those of the
last few years," Ruechel said.
"The difference is that we had a
lot more leadership on tho~e
teams."
Dean Lamers led all Pointer
hitters with nine hits on 22 at
bats for a .409 average. · Rick
Wagner (.400), Kenny Krug
(.384), Rick Dallman (.382),
Kerry Braun · (.379), Brian
Brown (.333), Mike Polum
(.322), and Ben Smejkel (.307)
followed.
The Pointers wilt travel to Milwaukee, Parkside, and St. Norbert (April 7 ,8, and 10) before
hosting Eau Claire on April 17. Point's conference home opener
against Platteville is scheduled
for Friday, April 20 -- -which
should give them just enough
time to change their incomplete
status.
"We are teaching so many new
things and the players are trying
to take it all in," said Reuchel.
"We our taking our bumps and
bruises early but are expecting
to come around in the near future."

"We knew that Plattsburgh had

reason and they sure showed it
on Saturday night," stated assisstant coach Rick Fleming.
"Fortunately, we were able to
regroup for the mini-game,
where, I feel, we played as well

The Pointers fmished the

"You have to give our seniors a
tremendous amount of credit,"
said Mazzoleni. "These guys
came into this program four
years ago when we had no
reputation at all. They took a
· big chance by coming here and
worked hard to build a program
that they and the community can ·
·really be proud of.
"The whole hockey program
would like to send a special
thanks to our administration,
student body, and our community for the tremendous support that we have received.
Without a doubt, we couldn't
have done it without them. It's
as much of their championship
as it is ours."

cif debates went so far as to assert that at the moment of implantation of a fertilized egg,
some seven days after inter. course, the embryo is a human

mlirder.
This is a religious argument,
not a biological one, as Professor Kent Hall J;toted in his discussion of the question, when

I believe that at least three
major Protestant denominations
agree with the Reverend Hall's
position, as does also, I believe,
the League of Women Voters.
During the four debates I attended, it appeared that those
who opposed allowing women
to control their reproductive
lives had a single argument
which they repeated in an endlessly different set of ways, that
is, the embryo from implantation on is a human being, and to
lre1n01~e it is murder.
