Vandalism is the largest
single crime problem at UWSP,
and it will be attacked during a
campus "Crime Prevention
Month" observance.
Velma Jain reports that the
Department of Protective Services, for which she is security
supervisor,
is
sponsoring
programs and the distribution of
a variety of printed materials
throughout October to inform
students and faculty/staff about
what they can do to better
protect themselves and their
property.
The vandalism problem is
addressed in the brochure "Be
Smart. Be Alert. A Safe Campus Starts with You." Other
publications will be made available about date rape and ways to
prevent it, how to handle
obscene phone calls, and how to
be safe walking and using public
transportation.
And with vandalism
problems, she added, there is a
"real need" for students to not
only protect their own property
but report incidents they witness because the losses "come
out of everyone's pockets."
"Crime Prevention Month"
has been given high priority this
year by Chancellor Keith
Sanders,
who
issued
a
proclamation noting that crime
prevention "adds immeasurably
to the health, safety and vigor of
UWSP and should be encouraged and supported by
everyone."
Distribution of the brochures
and related posters will be on
each remaining tuesday and
Wednesday during October,
from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Locations will be in the Professional
Studies Building lobby Oct. 9,
Collins Classroom Center lobby
Oct.lO Natural Resources
Building lobby Oct. 16, Science
Building lobby Oct. 17, Fine
Arts Center courtyard Oct. 23,
Berg Gymnasium lobby Oct.
24, Allen Center Oct.30, and
DeBot Center on Oct. 31.
Continued on page 17
Though it's been an uncommon problem for the campus,
reports of an intruder in several
women's dorm rooms the first
weekend of the school year emphasized the need for students to
take more safety precautions,
according to Jain.

History professor speaks on Persian Gulf
by Blair·Cleary
Staff Writer
"A war in the Middle East is
not as inevitable this week as it
was last week," said Neil Lewis,
a UWSP history professor, as he
gave a talk on Tuesday on recent
developmdnts in the Middle
East.
I
Sponsored by the UWSP
History Club, Professor Lewis
gave his presentation and then
_took several questions from the
audience on the Persian Gulf
crisis.
Lewis said in his discussion
that a war was less likely now
than it was last week in part because of a French proposal 'SUggesting a link between a
withdrawal from Kuwait by Iraq
to a spurring of negotiations for
an Israeli withdrawal from land
. once held by the Arabs.
"The proposal offers a way out
for Saddam Hussein," said
Lewis, "It allows him to save
face and get out with his skin inI
tact."
This, coupled with the fact the
U.S. was on friendly terms with
Iraq, may have given Hussein
the impression that the U.S.
would not act as severely as it
did.
Lewis stated that for now the
U.S. seems content to let the .
economic sanctions work on
Iraq. He said that the international support for the Iraqi
economic sanctions is still
strong.

Lewis also talked about some
of the diplomatic events leading
up to the Iraqi invasion of
Kuwait as well as why Hussein
was willing to take such a risk.
There were many reasons a
war with Kuwait was worth the
risk for Hussein.
First, it would help the people
of Iraq to put the war with Iran,

and perhaps as many as one million wounded, behind them.

when discussing the impact of
Israeli involvement in the Persian Gulf.
Lewis also discussed Libya
and Iran and how they fit into
the whole affair. When asked
what side Libya was on Lewis
said, "Both sides." He said that
while Libya condemned the invasion of Kuwait, it also condemned "unbeliever forces in
the land oflslam."
"A dream for Iran," said
Lewis, "would be if both the US
and Iraq went down in flames."
Lewis, ho~ever, suspected
that Iran was leaning slightly
toward the west. He said that
the fact that Iran re-opened relations .with Great Britain was·
evidence to help support this.
Lewis concluded by saying
that Iraq had lost its offensive
options. Lewis cautioned that to
drive them from Kuwait would
be very bloody. "They have al_most 10 years of experience
from fighting a defensive war
with Iran."

Where have all the Jacobins go-ne?
by Michelle Marver
Conh·ibutor
Where are the Jacobins?
Walking through the halls of the
University Center without the
sound of Father Patriot's boots
isn't the same. Where have he
and his followers vanished to?
Last year, Student Government Association recognized
the Jacobins as a student organization on campus. This
year, the Jacobins have not been
as outspoken and were not
recognized as a campus organization.
When asked what happened,
Maud LaMarche responded,
"It's not because Madison is
gone! All of the leaders and
many members, except myself
graduated last May. I cannot be
the leader of the organization
without any dedicated fol-.
lowers."
Many members of the former
Jacobinshave become involved
in the J>hiiosophy Club on campus. The club is under the direction of President Robert
Crapol-Hall, who was not a
member of the Jacobins. The
organization has over 35 members. Crapol-Hall commented,
"The purpose of the club is to
explore philosophical issues of
value to UWSP students." Each
member receives a pass/fail
credit in philosophy 399 for participation in the club.
The Philosophy Club will
produce a monthly newsletter of
educational information, entitled The Enchridion. This
newsletter will be discuss
freedom of thought and educa-
tion in a philosophical way. According to Crapol-Hall, "The
purpose of the newsletter is to
defend freedom of expression
by placing value on liberal arts
in a well-written educational
piece." This is iit contrast to the
Jacobin's newsletter, that used
an activist approach- to writing
about key issues on campus.
The Jacobin newsletter had no
organizational structure.
The J acobins were founded
two years ago by Elliot
Madison, James O'Donnel,
Dave Cherney and Maud LaMarche in response to the uncensored edition of The Pointer,
and accusations of student
apathy by SGA. They felt that
both
organizations
mis-
represented the students. According to LaMarche, "We
wanted to be the voice of the students and we wanted to prove
that students aren't apathetic,
but just uninformed abOut many
key issues on campus."
The name "Jacobin" and the
Father Patriot costumihg came
from the French Revolution era.
When asked about the ,costuming that distinguishes the
Jacobms, LaMarche responded,
"We want our organization to be
recognized on campus. It's our
way of promotion."_
LaMarche concluded, "I am
willing to bring the Jacobins
alive again with the support of
dedicated students. I can't do it
alone!"
Phi Sigs take action

Awareness week is coming up
October 14 -20, and this year,
the local chapter of the Phi
Sigma Kappa fraternity will be
participating by sponsoring a
portion of the week's activities
in conjunction with the Univer-
sity.
The last time the Phi Sigs
were in the news was February
oflast year for an uncomfortable
break up of one of their parties.
According to Patrick James, Phi
Sig coordinator of Alcohol
Awareness week, that incident
is directly related to their involvement with this year's
program.
90 F-M to air debate
WWSP 90FM will broadcast
the Wisconsin Broadcasters
Association's (WBA) gubernatorial debate live on Friday,

Editor-ill Chief
I had really hoped to avoid
ever commenting on this subject
because it has been beaten to
death more times than Wild E.
Coyote. But...
Recently, a friend of mine
living in another city was fmed
for underage drinking.
It seems he was taking a
· twelve pack to share with some
friends who had all been working many hours over the past
week completing and architecture model. For the sake of
brevity, I'll just say a security
officer stopped him while outside and ticketed him.
My friend (I'll call him Z)
had not had anything to drink at
this point and was bringing beer
for four other guys. Say what
you want about blood alcohol
levels, but there wasn't enough
beer to bring a grade school
cheerleading squad to giggles.
·I
It just so happens that Z will
tum 21 in three weeks. You
know what his early B-day
present was from the university?
$302. Let me spell it out for
you. $3-0-2.
Z got tickets for possession
. of alcohol by a minor, Md pos-
session of a falsified 10. Campus security said they let him
off because they could have got
him for tampering with a state
ID. Oh my, that's mighty
generous. You mean you'll
leave me two lumps of coal this
year in my X-mas stocking instead of just one? Don't bother.
A student can no more afford
$302 than he can $453.
Yes, yes, I know these activities are illegal. But let's look
squarely in the mirror for a
- second. A) Do we really believe
that 95 percent of those between
18-21 don't have fake IDs?
B) Do you rally think this will
stop a 20 year, 11 month old person from enjoying a beer with
friends after a tough assignment?
C) Why would you want to
stop this anyway? Is this really
aberrant behavior?
D) Are $151 tickets necessary? Will is ~are minors into
not drinking? Answer: No.
It'll merely make them poor.
And as far as expenses, most
will skip eating rather than have
no money to go out with.
So all the cynics in the crowd
are going to say that he should
have known better or that it serves him right for breaking the
law. I don't argue that he broke
the law. It's the priorities oflaw
enforcement which really
botherme.
~
People wonder why 18-21
year olds are so concerned about
the drinking age, and so unconcerned about other topics.
It's pretty simple. ·Every
single one of us worries most
about that which affects us personally. If it affects our own
lives then it takes a higher
priority. Previous generations
did not have to worry about
drinking privileges.
I'd be willing to bet that if the
drinking age were raised-to 21
during the Vietnam War the
demonstrations wouldn't have
been so war-oriented. . People
must be able to exercise true social freedom before society can
expect a reciprocating concern.
If you take away the simple
pleasures and rights of people,
·they will not concern themsel- .
ves with outside problerps until
they cure internal problems.
Don't ask me why or how alcohol bas come to be such a social obsession. I'm not sure.
But I'm also not sure how tofu
got to be popular, or if Jim Morrison and Elvis are really dead.
No one ever will be. They are
just universal mysteries. We
must instead decide on the consequences involved with the existence of each one.
Although I'm an advocate for
a lower drinking age, that is not
the point of this editorial. What
I criticize is a law enforcement
agency that acts overzealously
in matching the punishment to
the crime, and puts a student in
dire financial straits by enforcing fines over a situation which,
if objectively looked at, was
very innocent and non-threatening.
To me a much better solution
would be to merely take away
the twelve pack and the fake 10.
That way you prevent him from
the immediate potential of "law
breaking" if that indeed is the
purpose of the drinking laws.
More importantly, it'll allow the
officer to get on to more important security activities.
Instead of over-indulgent
punishment for young adults
trying to fit into the college social life, let's re-evaluate and
prioritize exactly what is
dangerous to society.

Now that school has me off
and scrambling again, I return to
the dreaded library to study. I do
however, kind of enjoy the
library. It's quiet -and nonstressful and I don't have to endure the noise of home.
I have a particularly favorite
spot to plot myself on fourth
floor by the 'findow facing the
sundial.
Recently the health
department has decided to bring
the problem of sexually trans- -mitted diseases to my small
· neck of the woods on fourth
floor. It is a display featuring
full color snapshots of genital
warts and other various discomforts. While I'm not easily offended, this display makes me
want to throw up. ·
I recognize the importance of
educating people about STD's,
but Dr. Zach and the health
department have no place putting such a repulsive display in
the library.
If the purpose of these pictures is to gross people out and
scare them, it is a success, but,
these tactics rarely work and
sometimes backfrre on the intended purpose. If the health
department feels they have to
display pictures ofpeoples genitals covered with warts to discourage unsafe sex then they
ought to do it in their own building and not the library.
I feel this display should be
removed and replaced with information that could benefit
people.
THE FAR SIDE
By GARY LARSON
A person is not too likely to
be seen in the library discreetly
pocketing information from a
display that features pictures of
genital diseases. I can't for the
life of me understand the purpose of this offensive.display. If
the library is a forum for this
material why don't we· put up
other full color photos of drunk
driving accidents that include
severed heads bouncing across
the highway or of crack addicts
who have taken a gun to their
head and popped it like a rice
krispie in milk.
Of course I'm being a little
extreme, but so is the health
department. I feel the wart gallery belongs elsewhere.

In defense of non-vegetariarls
Facts show beef-vegetarian conflict in different light I
Dear Editor:
Concerning the commentary,
"In Defense of Vegetarianism"
which appeared in the September 27 issue of The Pointer, I
would like to point out several
erroneous and misleading statements made by Ms. Maher.
' Being a soils major and having
spent two internships with the ·
Soil Conservation Service, I
have observed and calculated
with the Universal Soil Loss
Equation, soil erosion under a
variety of agricultural systems.
The statements, "Farmers
must work their lands exhaustively to feed their livestock.
Meanwhile the soil erodes ... As
a result, yields drop and farmers
continue to overwork their
land," are in the vast majority of
circumstances incorrect.
Beef producers, especially in
the Upper Midwest and West,
depend primarily on pastures
and hay production to feed their
animals. The other main staples
of cattle are corn and soy meal.
Properly managed hay and pasture lands produce extremely
low erosion rates. Farmers who
do not manage are soon out of
business.
Corn is a high residue crop,
which means the. plant stalks
and leaves remaining after harvest are left on the land and help
to greatly reduce soil erosion.
Soybeans are not as good a
residue source, but are also a
staple of many vegetarians'
diets.
As a matter of fact, many of
the vegetables mentioned by
Ms. Maher are low residue
crops which greatly increase the
chances for soil erosion.
'
As an example, if a crop of
peas and alfalfa are grown on
similar soils with equal slopes,
the USLE predicts that the pea
producing ground will undergo
five to thirty times the erosion of
the alfalfa hay field.
These vegetable crops are of
much higher value than forage
crops, and higher fertilizer addition to offset erosional losses is
economically feasible.
Additionally, vegetable ·crops, on
the average, require higher inputs of fertilizer, pesticides and
herbicides.
While organic
farming is a boom business, it
currently is unable to supply
sufficient quantities of food.
Someday perhaps it will, but not
tod1ly.
Animals such as cattle are
able to digest many forms of
plant material which man cannot.
Cattle are ruminants,
which means they have four
stomachs complete with a full
compliment of bacteria capable
SGA: voice of the students
Dear Editoi:,
The UWSP Student Government Association. Money.
Funding. For many students on
our fme campus these three
words summarize the representative body that helps guide
policies and supports programs
atUWSP.
Fortunately for us students
attending school here, SGA
does more than collect and allocate.
What is SGA then? Good
question.
The standard summary
would include a statement along
these lines, "The UWSP Student
Government Association is a
link between students, faculty,
administration · and the community."
' More simply put, SGA is
you. You are the student
government. Yes, you fund
campus organizations for activities. You as a student decide
on important issues that affect
this campus. For example, this
week in senate one issue that
will be discussed is UWS-14 ..
This plan has been worked
over during the summer by both
student senators and faculty
members. Now the revised format will be up for approval by
SGA. This policy will provide
guidelines on academic misconduct issues stemming from student/faculty conflicts.
When issues like UWS-14
are brought for discussion, this
is your opportunity to voice
opinion either by way of your
college's representatives or in
person at the meeting.
Getting in touch with your
senators is as simple as attending a caucus meeting. These
gatherings are held for all the
colleges and "regular" students
are given center stage. These
meetings are listed in The Daily.
Be in tune with the issues. You
as a student have the chance to
make a difference!
Funding is a big part of SGA.
Budget Director Dave Schleihs,
along with other members of the
budget team serve as a resource
for organizations to help ensure
strong programming. You as a
student contrib11;te to funding
non-acadenmic areas of UWSP
as a part of your segregated fees.
Our fees help fund campus organizations and activities, the
health center, day care center,
athletics and many more areas.
The fees that SGA allocates
amounts to more than $675,000
for the 190-91 academic year.
Students who are not involved
on senate are invited to participate to help assess campus
opinion.

Creating a felnale hunter,
After effort she sees the light
by Steve Schmidt
Outdoors Editor
·It was about this time last fall
that .I had decided to introduce
Michelle, my fiancee, to the
abundant opportunities offered
by Central Wisconsin's outdoors. Actually, I was bound
and determined to convert a city
girl .into a diehard hunter and
hopefully Spal'k her interest in
an outside activity other than
window shopping.
My plan was to start her off
on something challenging and
exciting yet not extremely difficult. Therefore, squirrels were
to be our game for the day.
We left for the hardwoods
midmorning on a Saturday since
I didn't want to discourage her
right-off-the-bat by insisting we
be in the woods by daybreak.
Besides, she demanded, "We
must have some morning
nourishment before our adventure." This included some very
healthy sweet rolls and coffee.
Nonetheless, we were finally
entering the woods with high
optimism at about 10:00 a.m.
The weather conditions were
ideal and the ·chatter of
bushytails filled our ears with
delightful sound. Michelle was
prepared, or at least appeared to
be. She was familiar with her
Savage over and under
22/20GA and had fired it se~ral
times previous to our outing.
Fortunately, we spotted our
frrst target. A feisty grey squirrel scampered through the wtderstory and darted up the
inviting trunk of an ancient pin
oak. I wondered if another
Annie Oakley was in the making
as Michelle raised the gun.
It was then that she
shouted,"Steve, get over here
and hold my eye shut so I can
aim this thing."
My rosecolored glasses had shattered as
I stumbled over to Michelle ' s
location several yards away.
"I can' t keep my left eye
closed now to shoot him," she
whimpered.
Dumbfounded by the fact she
could not execute a technique so
fundamental to an avid hunter, I
aided her by holding the palm of
my hand over her left eye.
KAPOW... the shotgun
bellered as Michelle's delicate
fmger slapped the stiff trigger.
Seconds later the crimson
stained bushytail thumped to the
forest floor.
Instantaneously, my lower
jaw dropped in amazement as I
realized she had truly killed her
frrst animal, ever. Filled with
awe I turned to absorb her reaction, but her tear drenched countenance
reflected
an
unsuspected outcome.
At this point, Michelle's
emotional state was that of com-

protection in Wisconsin will be
the subject of six infonnational
sessions scheduled by the
Department of Natural Resources in September in Madison,
Waukesha, Green Bay, Wisconsin Rapids, Spooner and Hudson (St. Croix County).
The N 1\tural Resources
Boar-d, at its August meeting,
approved holding these informal sessions before December
public hearings on the issue "so
citizens have time to learn about
the proposed rule and give the
DNR feedback and suggestions
on it," said Pat Trochlell, wetland
ecologist
for
the
Department's Bureau of Water
Resources Management.
The proposed rule (NR 103)
would establish water quality
standards
for
wetlands.
Proposed wetlands activities,
such as dredging or filling,
would need to meet the standards and some other requirements in order to be approved.
"The new rule would help the
state curb wetlands losses, but
would not prohibit all dredging,
fills or other wetland uses,"
Trochlell said.
Wisconsin has lost half of its
original pre-settlement wetlands acreage. The rate of wetlands loss has more than
doubled in the past twenty years
in southeastern Wisconsin,
commented Trochlell.
Activities that would need to
comply with standards established in the rule include physical .alterations of waterways,
including grading or construction of dams, ponds or commer-
cial cranberiy-growing beds;
residential and commercial
building construction; road and
highway construction; federal
dam relicensing; sewer extension approvals; landfill siting;
discharge of treated waste water
into wetlands and some fish and
wildlife management projects.
According to Trochlell, applicants proposing activities
that would significantly harm
wetlands and for which alternatives exist could be denied permits. The rule would have less
impact c;m agricultural uses of
wetlands, which already are discouraged under federal efforts
such as Swampbuster and the
Conservation Reserve Program.
Establishing wetlands standards would enable the Department of Natural Resources to
accurately evaluate the ecologi-
cal impact of dredging, fills and
other activities on wetlands,
Trochlell said. Wisconsin has
lacked these standards, impair- ·
ing the Department's ability to
protect the state's remaining 5.3
million acres of swamps, marshes, bogs and fens.
With uniform standards in
place, the Department would be
better able to issue or deny "certifications" for wetlands activities regulated under Section
404 of the Clean Water Act by
the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers.
·
The DNR would be betterequipped to consistently review
permit applications for wetlands
activities than the Corps, said .
Trochlell. In addition, DNR
staff are decentralized, more

Water Commission approves funding
MADISON, WI --The Wisconsin Waterways Commission
has approved $357,400 . in
matching funds for state recreaticmal boating facilities. The
funding was approved at the
commission's Sept.14 meeting,
and will be used for eight
projects statewide.
The following projects
received funding from the commission: Town of Farmington
(sponsor); Upgrade Taylor Lake
access site (project); $2,500
(amount) -- Village of Pepin;
Breakwater at Pepin Harbor;
$15,000 --Town of Long Lake;
Toilet at Long Lake access site;
$1 ,000 -- City of Beloit; Expand
Riverway Improvement Project
to include riverwalk along the
Rock River with paved path,
benches and water fountains;
$100,000-- TownofPort Wing;
parking lot at Lake Park; Lake
Superior; $19,125 -- City of
Sheboygan; IncreaSe funding
for feasibility $tudy to address
disposition of wrecks located
earlier in the study.
Previously this year the Wisconsin Waterways Commission
had approved $670,000 for
another 23 projects located
throughout the state.
The
recreational boating facilities
matching grant program is
funded by a formula transfer of
excise taxes on motor fuels used
for marine purposes.
The next meeting of the
commission will be held in early
February of 1991. Units of

plete misery. "I killed that poor
squirrel, I killed it," she cried.
Consequently, a hard and brutal
feeling overcame me, as I knew
I had made an enormous mistake by pressuring her to engage
in the sport of hunting.
Promptly, I reassured her that
the kill was quick, clean and justified. I explained that her ac. tion was an important part of
conservation and emphasized
that squirrels are excellent
eating. In minute~ she was convinced that her ordeal was indeed an admirable one in the
eyes of a hunter. By noon she
was skillfully harvesting more
squirrels and enjqying it.
I succeeded in bringing the
joy of hunting to an important
person.
Today, hunting
provides Michelle and me with
a special fall activity. Jt allows
us to spend time together in the
outdoors where we can enjoy its
beauty, excitement, and tranquility.
Also, I now have a legitimate
excuse to buy more sporting
goods. Try this with your loved
one. It may' work.

Autumn colors explained
Xanthophyll, carotene, anthocyanin and photosynthesis;
put all those multi- syllabic
words together and what have
you got? Fall. Of course!
Actually, DNR North
Central District ~ntomologist,
Bill Kearby, puts it, "The
change of the trees to their fall
colors is more complicated to
explain than that. When the day
length shortens and night
temperatures begin to drop 40
degrees and below, the process
that makes a tree appear green
(photosynthesis) decreases. In
its place, pigments that are always present in tree leaves
depending on the species, show
their flashy fall colors."
Kearby says, "Aspens, birch,
and elms display yellow pigment (xanthophyll) or orangeyellow colors (carotene) dQring
fall. On the other hand, maples,
especially red maple and scarlet
oak can become fiery red (anthocyanin) as a result of the pigmentation in their leaves."
Kearby speculates on what
many of us have already observed, that some trees seem to
have changed earlier this year
than the season would seem to
indicate. Kearby says, "Years
of stress on trees seems to be a
major factor this year. We had
a wet spring with frost that, in
some places, was experienced in
May and June. If you combine
that with heavy rains throughout
the summer and with cool
nights, it's not surprising that
fall colors appear earlier this ·
ye_ar."
"Of course," says Kearby,
"Fall colors can even extend to
trees we usually consider resistant to sea5onal changes. Such
evergreens as white pine, red
pine, and scotch pine will display a noticeable yellowing of
their needles, and as part of their
normal growth cycle, will drop
the innermost needles," he said.
As for the outlook for the fall
color spectacular this season,
Kearby says, "Much depends on
mother nature. If we continue to
have cool nights and sunny
warm days, color ama this year
may be beautiful. But heavy
rains and windy conditions
could change all that in a hurry.
The next week or two should see
the peak of our fall color
season." So, get out and enjoy!

wetland permit applications.
"Permit reviews, field investigations and fmal decisions on
wetlands permit applications
could be made more quickly,
which would reduce waiting
time for applicants," Trochlell
said.
Standards also would improve the state's ability to
review proposed activities on
wetlands under five acres and
isolated wetlands not associated
with navigable waters.
·
At the informational sessions, DNR staff will give a
brief status report on Wisconsin·
wetlands, describe the proposed
rule and answer questions from
the public about the issue. Sessions will be informal.
The rule may be changed
based on citizen comments the
DNR receives at the informational sessions. The revised rule
would be present for further
comment at formal public hearings to be held December 11 in
Madison, December 12 in
Waukesha and December 14 in
Wausau.
At the hearings,
citizens may file oral or written
comments on the rule, but won't
have the opportunity to discuss
the rule with DNR staff. Citizen
comments filed at the hearings
will become piut of the formal
hearing record.
A fmal rule will need approval from the Natural Resources Board and the Legislature
before taking effect.

The industry, which historically has expended little money

corporations. Through the survey, the professors hope to better characterize the nature of the
firms, determine the products

people to "Yell Like Hell" and
will consist mostly of purple and
gold.
Performances by comedian
Craig Higgins and the UWSP
Theatre Department (see story
on "Bus Stop") will round out
the evening. Craig Higgins, according to his biography, is a
comic from Orville, Ohio who
began his career ofter graduating from a comedy writing class
at the University of Ohio. He is
described as having "biting
cynicism wrapped in child-like
innocence." Check him out
8:30p.m. in the Encore Room.
Friday's events will begin
with the fifth scored event of the
competition, the Scavenger
Hunt. This event will differ
from the previous year's hunts
as it will be based more heavily
on off-the-wall activities than
on trivia questions. It will be
held in the Wisconsin Room
from 3-7 p.m.
One of the main events of the
Homecoming week, performances by Meatloaf and opening act
Mile One will top off the evening. The show, to be held in the

Theatre Department to present ''Bus Stop''
The largest-ever class of new
students has enrolled in the
theatre and dance department at
UWSP, and one of them will
play a leading role in the upcoming production of "Bus Stop,"
which opens at 8 p.m., Friday,
Oct. 5.
Tricia Theiler, a freshman
from Tomahawk, will portray
Cherie, a nightclub singer, the
role made famous by Marilyn
Monroe in the film adaption.
Theiler is one of 55 freshman
and transfer students who
entered the university this fall.
Ordinarily, the count is about
35, says Arthur Hopper, department chairman and director of
"Bus Stop,"
The production will run at 8
p.m. on Oct. 6 and 11 through 13
and at 7 p.m. on Oct. 7 in the
Jenkins Theatre of the Fine Arts
and Communication box office.
"Bus Stop," William Inge 's
comedy about several likeable
characters stranded in a roadside diner during a snowstorm,
is touching, sentimental and
entertaining, according to the
director.
Hopper says he is pleased
with the growing numbers of
students entering theatre and
dance program, but he is even
more · enthused about their
potential. He predicts audiences .will be entertained by the
new crop of talented actors on
the main stage this season.
Theiler is one of those new
faces--as a director, Hopper
describes her as ''vivacious and
sparkling." And he describes
junior Patrick Placzkowski of
Shawano, who will play Bo, the
cowboy, as possessing "charisma." ·
Another actor making his
university debut in "Bus Stop"
will be Nicholas Price, a
sophomore from Stevens Point,
who will play Will, the sheriff.
The director also has cast
- several juniors who are "coming
up," as Hopper describes their
progression into major roles.
The most experienced are John
Voight of Antigo, who will play
Dr. Lyman, the unemployed and
drunken professor; Tonya Be'Ckman of West Springfield,
Mass., who will portray Elma, a
high school girl who works at
the diner; and AmyLiz Schaub
of Ripon as Grace, owner of the
diner.
Recently, Beckman par-

Folger
Shakespeare Theatre's Summer
Acting Conservatory, a professional training company in
Washington, D.C. Other members of the cast are Daniel
KatulaofPewaukee, as Carl, the
bus driver; and M. Scott Taulman of Sun Prairie, as Virgil,
Bo's mentor and friend.
The realistic set and costumes were designed by Steven
Sherwin and Debra Lotsof,
members of the theatre faculty.
The stage manager is Carmen
Dunn, 1328 Northpoint Drive,
Stevens Point, and the lighting
is by Patricia Mooney of
Rhinelander, a dance major who
has developed an interest in
lighting design.

When it is said that the frame
makes the picture, the truth may
also be that it is his shoes that
make the man.
Unfortunately, the issue of
footwear has been neglected by
many men whose only thoughts
of wearing anything on their feet
aregrubby tennis shoes.and discolored dockers.
How many times have you
seen the . supposedly welldressed men on campus, looking like a million dollars only to
be ruined by his mismatched
footwear which quickly dispel
the image of macho perfection.
Well, take heart because the
world of men's footwear has
since expanded from the platform shoes of the 1960's to the

choices are thus mind-boggling
as men are able to choose from
many styles to suit their individual personality and lifestyle just as the women of today
Boss's Day
can.
With the semester just into its
second month and winter
gradually creeping in, men on
campus are probably in the
process of contemplating the
type of shoes that would be the
best (and most durable) investment for a season of blistery,
cold weather and the year and
the year-end festivities. The
best bet (besides the reliable but
predictable gym shoes ) would
probably be a pair that would
match the staple clothing of men
in winter.

proach to their dressing. These
are quite affordable (ideal for
the budget conscious) and are
available in many different
styles. They can be paired with
just about anything from jeans
and cords to wool slacks and
even formal wear.
For the fashion conscious,
opt for monk strap suede and oil
tanned leather low-cut boots for
a versatile 'high' casual look.
"Give the old sneakers, moccasins and dockers a miss this
fall/winter season.
Selecting the right color for
footwear is also essential.
Black is passe when compared
to the rich tones of camel, tobacco, taupe, tan dark brown,
chestnut, burgundy and a gamut
·of autumnal shades to complement the wardrobe. Finally, do
not overlook socks which could
enhance · the appearance of
shoes.
Invest in a few thick, colored
and wollen/acrylic pairs besides
the staple white and you are all
ready to put your bes.t foot forward for the new academic year!
With warmer and more textured apparel, footwear for men
should also be balanced off with
functional yet stylish shoes that
could take him anywhere from
class, to work and ultimately to
parties.
Shoes that have thicker soles
would be obvious choices as
they are extremely suitable for
the harsh winter here. Suede
and leather lace up shoes
(protected by Scotchguard) are
for those who want a more classic and perhaps a preppy ap-

·Football team suffers first loss, 21-7
The UWSP Football team
made major mistakes on two
fourth quarter punt plays en
route to its first loss of the
season as the Pointers fell to
. UW-LaCrosse, 21-7, last Saturday at Goerke Park.
The Pointers are now 1-1 in
the Wisconsin State University
Conference and 3-1 overall.
UWSP and La Crosse battled
to a 7-7 tie through the first three
periods, but early in the fourth
quarter, La Crosse took a
Pointer punt at its own 24 yard
line and returned it 76 yards to
take a 14-7 lead.
Then, late in the game, the
Pointers fumbled a La Crosse
punt in their own end zone and
the Eagles recovered it to seal
the 21-7 final.
La Crosse got on the
scoreboard first, capping off a
six- play, 45-yard drive with a
touchdown to take a 7-0 lead.
The Pointers quickly
countered, and on the next drive,
droye 74 yards on 11 plays.
Rober!_ -~«E-ed . capped off . the
drive with a one-yard touchdown run. Dave Schneider
added the extra-point to tie the
score at seven.
Pointer coach John Miech
said that with the exception of
the two mistakes on the punts,
his team played well.
"After reviewing the films, I
was happy with the way a
majority of our team played,"
said Miech. "We just had a
couple of serious breakdowns
on _our punt and punt return
teams and it cost us the game."
The Pointers, who have been
traditionally a passing team,
managed only 35 yards through
the air. They did rush for 129
yards for a total offense of 164
yards.
Meanwhile, the Angry Dog
defense continued to lead the
WSUC in rushing and total
defense, limiting La Crosse to
only 102 yards on the ground
and 270 total yards.
The UWSP football team's Angry Dog Defense pursued the La Crosse quarterback in last Saturday's game at Goerke Field. The Pointers gave up two fourth
quarter touchdowns as they suffered their nrst loss of the season, 21-7.

·
Reading Dynamics can help you!
Here's what some of our Evelyn Wood
graduates have to say•••
"My reading speed went from 353 words
a minute to 4400 words a minute. It increased over 12 times. And even at that
speed, my comprehension jumped 18%1
Now I breeze through homework that used
to bog me down. And I've got lots more
time now. The note-taking skills and study
techniques gave me the confidence to
take on even tougher courses. I just
wish I'd taken this course sooner."
John Huizenga -
Randolph
"Too much to read. Not enough time.
Too much to study to be able to
study thoroughly. I just didn't have
the time ... But the Evelyn Wood
course gave me the time. I read
faster (by almost 6 times) with good
.comprehension. Even reading
technical material goes faster. The
note-taking methods, study skills,
and planning and scheduling system
made it all work together. Evelyn
Wood is a "must take" course for
those who want to succeed."
"The classes were great. My reading
.speed nearly tripled to 1,287 words
a minute, with very good comprehension. I'm doing much better on tests, ·
and long homework assignments
are a snap! Everyone should take
the Evelyn Wood course!"
