Was that a whole year already? by Jodi Ott News Editor Drum roll , please. A. drummer who performed at last week's Benefest seems happy that the year is almost over. (Photo by Alan Crouch) I've got some good news and I've got some bad news. Actually, I've gotten all kinds of news this year. First, there was the mystery man. You remember him. He didn't wear shoes and he liked to watch girls sleeping. He frequently was spotted in residence halls but nobody was able to catchhim. · Students were warned to lock their doors unless of course he was already in the room. Enrollment was cut to 8,700 students and Tom Wicker spoke at Convocation. Priffie Time and Piccadeli were closed but .a $3 million renovation of DeBot began. Some students even got to eat lunch with the SGA president and the chancellor if they were invited to Project Listen. Then there was the ski mask · story. A woman in Parking Lot J reported fighting off two men wearing ski masks.' She managed to get away. Then a sad story: Resident blames blood poisoning on dirty shower. Apparently, the _ janitors just weren't cleaning up to their usual standards. Students had the opportunity .to leave their dirty showers for the weekend and attend the Great Midwest Harvest Festival in Madison. If you don't remember what that is, maybe you should.n 't have gone, and if you went, and don't remember it, well that's another story. A room in Hansen Hall started on fire. Apparently, the resident forgot that putting Christmas tree lights over flags hung from the ceiling could spark a fire. · The gubernatorial race between· Tommy Thompson and Tom Loftus was puttering along. Do you remell}ber who won? United Council was still pushing for a tuition freeze. Pushing what, I don't know. The Jacobins were really gone but Bratfest was revived. Students at UW-Oshkosh rioted.

The report suggests that UWSP and sister campuses used positions and doilars unwisely and misled lawmakers about needs for additional resources for the 1987-89 biennium. Statewide, th~ UW System met only 30 percent of its goal to increase 990 new class sections. Howard Thorye, the vice chancellor, said he is frustrated because of the complicated na-ture of the audit, gaining broad public understanding of the university's side is extremely difficult. · The vice chancellor said that on the surface he cannot dispute data contained in the report. "Its methodology was straightforward': count (class) sections in two different semesters and then compute the difference," said Thorye. Thorye ci~d four main problems with the report. In the fall of 1986, in order to cover instructional needs, · UWSP borrowed 12 positions from the UW System and used them for instructional purposes. Because ofthis arrangement, the number of sections UWSP was able to offer in 1986 was inflated. "Thus, as many as 12 of the 15.5 positions we received during 1987-89 didn't generate new class sections," Thorye emphasized, because they were used to pay_back the loan made the year before. ~etween 1986 and 1989, UWSP made numerous curricular · changes which decreased the number of class sections offered without decreasing ~rvice or access to students. In mathematics, for example, · three two-credit courses were changed to two four-credit courses, resulting in nine fewer sections. The audit delay only wiht group instruction at a time when UWSP is making several facul- ty assignments from group to individual instruction, further reducing the class section tally. For instance, su~rvision of student teachers is considered . individual instruction, and Thorye said changes in this area were imperative because the number of student teachers rose in a three-year period from 10~­ to 172. Thorye said that between 1984 and 1986, the UW System deallocated a total of 14.5 positions at UWSP. Even with the addition of 15.5 positions in the following biennium, the net Continued on Page 2 INSIDE POINTER ' THE =>This Week<= OUTDOORS pg. 6- Swans FEATURES pg. 10 - Graduation SPORTS pg. 14 - Baseball Pointer Page 2 Thursday, May 9th, 1991 Missing: two little girls Now&the other side News happens here, sometimes "Lauralie is a sweet, loving, caring mother. She always kept her house clean. Her children were always dressed nice and acted properly," said Vicky Riley, afriendofLauralie's who now resides in Georgia. Riley and Berndt both attended Mid~ State Technical College together. "I'm glad someone is finally telling the other side of the story. The picture of Lauralie on the missing posters makes her look like a sleaze and she isn't. She's a very good mother," said Riley. "That was a promo picture of her taken when she was in a band," said a friend who has known Berndt since she was 17. "They used that photo to make her look like an unfit mother." Wolter feels that Lauralie and the children are safer now. but that it is unfair that they had to disappear when there was evidence in favor of Berndt. Wolter is currently working with Social Services for an apoeal. Wolter had documents from Social Services, the Community Alcohol Drug Abuse Center, the Head Start Program, court testimony, psychologist reports and from Lauralie herself.

The legal distance to dump trash from a coastline is 50 miles. The ship I was on dun;tped trash approximately 22 · miles out. Other ships were dumping as close as 14 miles (just over the horizon), Some of the world's most abundant fishing supply has been declared hazardous due to toxic waste that has been dumped just five miles off the mid-California coast. Ac._tion has fmally been taken to clean up the beaches, but I'm afraid that the problem doesn't end there. At the base of the problem are the ships that are doing the dumping. Somehow we need to enforce the international laws of dumping. I would like to see more effort put forth by government to adhere to these laws.

P REMIUM 'BRANDS Ponderosa Pointer Page 6 Th'!!"sday,_~ay 9th, 1991 Hold your breath: Ozone season is underway - With the 1991 ozone season underway in Wisconsin, a statewide network of tracking stations will monitor this problem air pollutant and report the health of the state's air from now until September 15. Last November, the U.S. &,.vironmental Protection Agency ranked a six-county portion of southeastern Wisconsin as one of nine metropolitan areas in the country with severe ozone pollution problems. Other nearby counties also experience problem ozone levels. Since monitoring began more than 10 years ago, ozone levels in Wisconsin have violated the federal health standard of 0.12 parts per million each year, said Julian Chazin, chief of the department of Natural Resources Air Monitoring Section. "In order for the ozone health standard to be achieved, the \ ozone level cannot be higher than 0.12 part per million more than one day a year during a three year period," Chazin said. Ozone, the main component in smog, can cause headaches, dizziness, difficulty in breathing and may increase the lungs' susceptibility to infection. It also damages plants, rubber, fabric and other synthetic materials. "Studies have clearly shown that ozone can cause short-term The Department of Natural Resources provides taped, daily reports on air quality, including ozone levels; ozone advisories are issued when concentrations reach unhealthy levels. In Milwaukee county call 263-8582; in the Madison area call 2753266; in Door, Manitowoc, report high ozone levels, but high concentrations there are usually short-lived, Chazin said. "Inland sites don't have Lake Michigan nearby acting as a sink for ozone and the pollutants that form it," Chazin continued. "These pollutants come from "Studies have clearly shown that ozone can cause short-term but serious health problems." Jay Goldring Dept. of Health and Social Services but serious health problems," ' said Jay Goldring, a toxicologist with the Department of Health and Social Services. "Children, elderly people and people with lung or heart ailments may be especially sensitive to ozone effects," he emphasized. "In addition, healthy people exercising outdoors may experience discomfort on days when the ozone concentra-. tion is near the 0.12 ppm standard." Kewaunee, Sheboygan, Ozaukee, Washington, Waukesha, Racine, Kenosha and Walworth counties, call 800-242-4727. large metropolitan areas to the south. We've found that areas more than one hundred miles away from large cities can be affected by orone." The DNR measures ozone levels throughout the ozone · season using 27 ozone monitoring stations. Most stations are loc.ated along the Lake Michigan shoreline, where the highest levels of ozone have been detected. Farther inland, 13 monitoring sites periodically Wisconsin is also working with Illinois, Indiana and Michigan under the Lake Michigan Ozone Study to study smog around the southern Lake Michigan shore from Door county south ·to Milwaukee, Chicago, and_around the lake as far north as Ludington, Michigan. _Researchers are tracking ozone formation in the region's large metropolitan areas and ozone transportation via lake winds. Amendments to the federal Clean Air Act approved in November require each state with an ozone problem to protect the health of residents by developing and carrying out ozone cleanup plans. Most plans will target automobiles, which · in southeastern I Wisconsin produce 60 percent of the ozone formed at ground level. New ways of reducing car exhaust include mandatory! car pools for businesses with over 100 employees, expanded vehicle inspection and maintenance programs, alternative fuels for auto fleets, n~w blends of ; gasoline, vapor recovery hoses on gas pumps, stricter tailpipe emission standards and new traffic management plans. ' Trumpeter swans released Big talk for potentially in nOrthwestern Wisconsin dangerous discovery by Steve Schmidt Outdoors Editor Twenty-two Trumpeter swans were released in northwest Wisconsin on Wednesday, May 8, 1991, reports Sumner W. Matteson, trumpeter swan recovery project leader for the Department of Natural Resources. Have you heard about the latest environmental gossip, all that media hype about PCBeating organisms saving our planet from contamination? Well, if not, here's the scoop-as smelly as it may·tum out to be. Researchers at a school in Ann Arbor, Michigan say they've invented a bunch of deadly, pollutant-eating microbes capable of killing PCB contaminants. WOW! Look at the potential benefits should these bacteria prove to be effective. It would help diminish if not totally eliminate the current process of hauling toxic wastes to landfills. This in tum, would reduce the risks of further environmental contamination by spillage or leaching. The swans )Vere released in northern Polk and southern Burnett counties and included 18 sub-adults and four yearlings. Eighteen of the swans came from trumpeter swan eggs collected in Alaska in 1989. These birds were raised and maintained the past two years on a pond at the General Electric Medical Systems Plants at Pewaukee.

So far, Michigan researchers have done tests on sediments gathered from the Hudson River and have applied to test EPA · sites near Sheboygan, Wisconsin. And what's the outcome? Well, they haven't found a way to kill all the PCBs, but they have markedly reduced concentrations of the chemical from 300 parts per million to 50 ppm. SOUNDS WdNDERFUL, HEY? · Well, say these little suckers are effective in combating PCB contamination. They would surely help clean up our pigsty of watersheds, the ones we so obviously take for granted. But it sounds to me, however, as if these PCB pac-men are prematurely receiving the red carpet treatment, spoken about as if they will entirely END the PCB threat. ·Well B.S. There will always be the danger of toxic substances in our envifonment, particularly PCBs. Furthermore, I fear this development may possibly increase the amount of undesirables discharged into our waterways. For decades, we've been . fighting point-source pollution. And for the most part, its beginning to work. But with this current discovery, I predict industries will continue to pollute, viewing it as a band-aid solution to to~ic discharge.

It seems like only yesterday (when aqtually nine months ago) I sat in The Pointer news room fiercely damning a ,hightech computer system at ·6:15 Thursday morning, wondering if I'd fmish layout before the printer arrived in a couple hours. Meeting deadlines can be almost impossible when you're a greenhorn. · Oh well, titpes change and efficiency takes the chore out of being outdoors editor and transforms the job into an exciting and gratifying occupation. That's why I tegret to admit this is the last issue of The Pointer until fall, when the _new editorin- chiefette gets the ball-a-rolling -agaih. Consequently, this is also the fmal issue in which yours truly will be identified by the byline·"Outdoors Editor." I have chosen to tum in my wings and spend my last semester at Point searching for that elusive trophy whitetail. And if time permits, I may even study a bit. i hear 300-level courses are a real bummer. But before I wrap-up and take advantage of my last rights as outdoors editor, I confidently hand over my position to the new guy, Mr. Buck Jennings, friend, foe and carp specialist. As I was told a year ago by the Stat~ retiring Brian Leahy, "Good luck and have fun. The outdoors position is what the out~ doors editor makes it." I'd also like to add, "Get a life, Buck." I've known Buck since our freshman year when Professor Bowles chaperoned our Dirt 260 nap-time class. He also got the higher of the fmes for racing from the square to Taco Bell that cold February evening. I feel obligated, therefore, to softenup next semester's outdoors readers. Be easy on him, you guys, he's only human (I think?). Seriously though, Buck doesn't need his readers to be buttered-up. He knows his stuff when it comes to outdoor-related topics. Hell, he even eats ronchy ol' snapping turtles and washes their flesh down with Point Special beer. What more can you ask for in an outdoors editor, or a mountain man for that matter? Anyway, if you see a guy driving around campus in a poop- brown rusted-out Chevy pickup hauling a zebra-striped . canoe, you've spotted your new section editor. He's a living legacy to the sport of bowfishing, and I'm sure he'll make a damn good outdoors editor (if not, he uses a pen · name anyway). Now for the lengthy THANK YOUs. THANK YOU EVERYONE, except of course, psychology professor Thomas Rowe, who bitched in a l~tter to the editor about a deer hunting article I wrote back in November.

I get tired of boring press releases, and your material added spice to the outdoors section. Keep up the good work for Buck's sake. Thanks goes to Dr. Pete "Stogie" Kelley, The Pointer's senior advisor, who taught me how to use the art of rhetoric (or B.S.) and inspired me to apply for the position, despite thinking I'm a bigot because of my antispearing beliefs. By the way, keep doing the Carpet Fresh commercials, dude. Thanks also, Ron Wirtz, for being a kick-butt editor-inchief and excepting all my bribes. And thanks for having the backbone to organize our radical protest against SGA. I'm not the liberal-type, but our counterattack was legitimate, necessary and most importantly, fun. A special fmal thanks would be in order for all my dedicated readers who contributed to .the heaping pile offan letters on my already messy desk. But I'll save it, because there weren't any. So then, my 'special and fmal thanks goes to God, the supreme being responsible for working the miracles that allowed me to pass Thursday morning exams even though there wasn't any time to study because of layout on Wednesday nights. I also thank him for granting me the self control required to refrain from plugging our $8,000 computer system with five rounds of double-o buck shot when I couldn't get it to function properly. Oh ya, I almost forgot, thankyou U.S. Tobacco Company in Nashville, Tennessee for providing the Copenhagen snuff that helped me stay awake those long hours in the office when I didn't have a steady girlfriend. It really does satisfy. And accordingly, I thank the comm. building janitors for not bitching... too much, about the chew spit in the garbage cans. Without your support and confidentiality I'd have been S.O.L. a long time ago. Then to be fair, I suppose I should thank Partner's Pub for cheap pitchers on Wednesday nights. They topped-off those late evenings, getting out of the layout room, very nicely. By 1 a.m., of course, it's too late to study and too early to hit the hay. O.K., that's it...I'm fmished writing. But don't look so sad ... or happy. I just might drop a note or two in next semester's outdoors section. And who knows what my byline might say. Engelhard announces retirement by Tamara 0 bermeier Contributor Professor Robert Engelhard will be retiring after this semester following a , 25 year teaching career at UWSP. .Engelhard, a forest economics and education specialist, said he made his decision three years ago. "I brought 13 years of field experience in forestry to the faculty when I joined. After 25 years of teaching, I feel it is time to get back to the field," he said. He will keep busy with his responsibilites as a member of the Governor's Council on Forestry and the president of the Stevens Point Board of Water and Sewage Commissioners. In addition, he will be associated with two forestry consulting frrms. "One frrm is in Wisconsin and the other is in Washington D.C.. They both have international components as well. These projects will get me back into the woods," he said. "I also expect to continue to do volunteer work for UWSP. I hope to continue to be a public an. nouncer for football, basketball, and track; I have been doing that since 1978," he added. He has been involved in the development of the College of Natural Resources and the crea- Robert Engelhard tion of an undergraduate forestry major.

Pointer Page 8 Thursday, May 9th, 1991 Fishery WISCONSIN FISHING Fishing in Wisconsin is big business, worth $750 million to the state's econor:ny each year. Wisconsin has more than two million anglers. We sell another 400,000 nonresident licenses and fishing stamps each year, placing us number one nationally in this category. Most of the fish caught in Wisconsin's lakes and streams are naturally produced. In fact, less than 10 percent . of Wisconsin's 15,000 lakes and 33,000 miles of streams are stocked. If stocking is done correctly, though, it is a very important tool that can significantly improve fishing in selected waters. The trick is to find these areas - and that's what. fisheries managers do. I'd like to share a few facts with you about walleye stocking. Wisconsin has 1064 walleye lakes (859 in the ceded territory) and about 350 of them are stocked statewide. Like farming, the success of hatching, rearing and stocking fish can vary widely from year to year because of weather and other related factors. Walleye populations in Wisconsin's top walleye waters average 5.4 adult fish (10 inches or larger) per acre. Stocked lakes typically have less than 2.4 adult walleye per acre-- additional stocking may increase walleye populations in these lakes and improve fishing. Stocking walleyes in lakes with high natural populations is largely ineffective, but in other lakes where there is a "niche" for stocking, it can be highly successful. Fisheries managers use survey techniques to determine those lakes that stocking can benefit. The Bureau of Fisheries Management has three major warm water hatcheries and associated rearing ponds. Approximately three million to four million walleye fmgerlings (young fish 2-5 inches long) are produced each year from the 15 million walleye fry (newborn fish) that are hatched. With the hatchery improvements backed by Governor Thompson, we will produce another 2.5 million fingerlings. · Usually, the larger a fish can be raised in a hatchery, the higher its chance of survival after stocking. About one-third o'f Wisconsin's fishery budget goes to the hatchery program to raise both cool water and coldwater fish. A two-inch walleye fmgerling costs about five to 10 cents each to produce; · an eight-inch walleye fmgerling can cost more than $2 each. In 1988 the state examined the potential for purchasing walleyes from the private sector and learned that four-inch wal- OUTDOOR REPORT Area wardens have seen an increase in the number of anglers cited for littering and ask that you help keep our outdoors clean by properly disposing of your aluminum cans and other trash. Crappies are biting on Lake Winnebago; crappie action is also excellent along the shores, channels and sloughs on Lake Butte des Morts. Walleyes are biting in the lower Wisconsin State Riverway. A 25-incher was caught off the Otter Creek landing this week. Striped bass and walleye are providing action below the Dells dam. Many of the local sloughs are producing mediumsized smallmouth bass. Northerns and bass are biting in Lake Puckaway and Buffalo Lake in Marquette County. Catfish, carp and buffalo are being taken on Dane County rivers, and good catches of bluegills and crappies are coming from the lakes. Catfish are also biting on the Rock River, with the larger fish being caught after dark. Some white bass are being \ taken though the run hasn't start;d yet. The run is not .expeered to produce large numbers of fish du:e ·to two years of die-off in Lake Koshkonong, though the white bass population appears to be rebounding. In the LaCrosse area, fishing has been very good. Anglers have been getting panfish, walleyes, northerns, bass, bullheads and some catfish. Early spring wildflowers are at their peak, including the star- · like flowers of the wood anemones and the bloodroot of the poppy family. Trilliums will begin to carpet the forest floor in about a week or so. This is a great time to walk in the woods and observe large numbers of migrant birds. The warbler migration _will begin within the next few days. Most of us need a field guide to help us identify the many different species. Deer and wood ticks are out now. Wear light-colore" clothing to make it easier to spot them, and check yourself and your pets after you've been outdoors. Buck's from page 6 thehellisgoin' on here?" Crazy stuff. More environ-mental. More carp. A story: Once their was a boy who went fishing. All he could find in the once pristine aqueous environment, were carp and associated rough fish. The boy pondered the situation. Further investigations revealed the source of the problem. In these areas, man's impact on the environment was so severe that only carp, an adaptable alien species, and other "rough fish" formerly confined to rare cesspools could survive here. The boy was forced to make a decision: Fish for carp, or fight against seemingly insurmountable odds, clean up the environ- _ ment and hope for the return of clean habitat species. He decided to do both. from page 7 !eyes were available at 65 to 95 cents each, not including transportation costs. The DNR's fisheries management staff collects the eggs it needs each year from walleyes caught in live-trap nets set during the spring spawning season. After spawning, the fish are released unharmed. A female walleye may produce from 50,000 to 500,000 eggs. The eggs hatch in about 21 days in water that's 50-55 degrees Fahrenheit, or in seven days in water at 57 degrees. Our policy is to stock 10 percent of the fry back into each lake from which the eggs were removed. This is a higher percentage than would have hatched naturally. Studies ·show tliat these lakes do not suffer from this egg removal. Coldwater fish such as walleye and muskellunge eat only live food after they've hatched. Providing the young fish with adequate food at the hatchery is of paramount importance -- and can be very costly. Currently in our hatching ponds, orily 17 walleye fry out · of one hundred survive to become fmgerlings . Survival in a natural lake filled with other fish is far less, sometimes as low as zero. Hatcheries do improve survival rates. Lee Kernen DNR Bureau of Fisheries Mgt. Director said. "It will include a new hatchery building, water supply, wastewater system and rearing pond construction." At present no small walleyes are raised at the Spooner facility. After project completion, the hatchery will produce 1,455,000 sm-all walleye fingerlings and will increase production of extended-growth walleyes (six-inches or longer) from 25,000 to 100,000. Musky production will increase from 75,000 to 170,000 per year. "The $2.6 million Woodruff Hatchery project is expected to begin in 1992 and will take about a year and a half .to complete," Ives stated. "That renovation will include upgrad- small walleye fingerlings and 25,000 extended-growth walleyes. The improvements will also increase musky production from 45,000 to 75,000 per year. ·· When all the work is completed, total hatchery pr9duction will increase to 2.9 million small walleye fingerlings, 125,000 extended growth walleye fingerlings, 1 100,000 large northern pike fmgerlings (eightinches or larger), and 125,000 musky fingerlings. . "The work at Spooner and Woodruff won't be·done at the same time because the improvements will take each hatchery · out of production for at least one year," Ives said. "Statewide production will be maintained through increased production at all other facilities while construction is going on." ing the water supply system, new ponds, and a hatchery building addition for a water 'supply treatment system and a wastewater treatment system." The Woodruff hatchery, which doesn't raise small walleye fingerlings now, will have capacity to produce 375,000 small walleye fingerlings and 25,000 extended-growth walleyes. The improvements will also increase musky production from 45,000 to 75,000 per year.

Each spring, when the snow cover disappears, and until the grass and trees begin to "greenup," the potential for wildf'rres is always possible. "During this · period, dead material, such as - leaves and grass from the previous growing season, dries out, ' ~ until it takes only a spark driven ' _ by strong spring winds to whip flames into a wildfire," said Glen Wiegenstein, DNR North Central District Fire Control Supervisor. During this time of the yeai, homeowners and property owners are· required to obtain burning pe'nnits .before using frre to dispose of yard waste and other materials, added Wiegen*in. Burning permits detail precautions that must be taken when using fire. Those precautions must be adhered to, as a frre that gets out of hand leaves the property owner tiable for costs of suppression and other damages. Many more people are ~sing home burning barrels to reduce their household garbage. Many local landfills are closing, the construCtion standards for new landfills are stringent, and the costs for disposal of our waste will continue to increase. In lieu of paying the increa5ed costs of garbage disposal, some people are reverting back to using burning barrels. Here are some commonly asked questions concerning the use of burning barrels. Is it illegal to own a burning barrel? Owning a burning barrel is not illegal. The manner in which it is used may be illegal. Section NR 429.04(l)(e). of the Wisconsin Administrative Code prohibits the open burning of wet, combustible rubbish, garbage, · oil substances, asphalt, plastic or rubber products. Burning household garbage in a burning barrel is illegal. What can /legally burn in my burning barrel? Only clean, .untreated, unpainted woo(,{. paper, and cardboard can be legally burned in a burning barr~l. What is a legal burning bar~ rei?' · Any type of an enclosed container to hold ~e material to be· burned. Air openings in the container should be no larger than l/2 inch, and it must have a cover to prevent hot embers from blowing put. A 55-gallon drum placed on cement blocks, with a cover 'ln it, works very well. Once the drum begins to. rust out, replace it. Burning of garbage has been going on for years. Why is it a problem now? The composition of household garbage has changed dramatically ·over the last 20 years. Many of the commodities prev~ously packaged in paper or glass containers are now packaged in plastic. Additionally, many items previously constructed out of wood or metal are now constructed of plastic. When broken or no longer needed, they are d·iscarded into the household refuse. \ "1 What makes the practice of burning household garbage in a burning barrel hazardous? The health ~ds from incineration are twofold. The first problem comes from the smoke, while the second comes from the ash. Smoke emissions from burning barrels will contain heavy metals such as lead, cadmium, and chromium. These metals are used in plastics as stabilizers and ultraviolet inhibitors. They are also used in some of the inks used- for printing and in many paints. Chlorinated plastics such as P.V.C. can produce hydrochloric acid and provide a source of chlorine for dioxin formation. The hydrochloric acid is an irritant and may damage the human respiratory system. These heavy metals are known to cause neurological problems and some are known to cause cancer. Lead is common and known to be very dangerous to children under 6 years of age. While an adult will absorb and accumulate lead in the bones of the body, a child will absorb it into the brain where it can interfere with intellectual development. Toxic ash is the second major problem with using burning barrels. Not only do heavy metals exist in the ash, but it also contains various forms of dioxins and furans. Dioxins and furans are some of the most toxic substances known to man and may cause cancer. If garbage incineration is so hazardous, why is the Department of Narural Resources allowing construction of municipal waste incinerators? . . Municipal waste incinerators are specifically en~ineered and operated to minimize emmissions of toxic compounds to -the air. They operate at very high tempera..- tures to assure complete combustion. They· are equipped with control devioes which reduce the amount of particu-. lates emitted by more than 99.9 percent. Often these incinerators are equipped with additional control devices which neutralize acid gas emissions. The ash from these incinerators is closely monitored and analyzed for toxicity on a frequent schedule and, at a minimum, is disposed of at an ap- proved,.clay-lined landfill. _ What are the alternatives to dispo~ing ofhousehold garbage in a burn barrel? Recycling dramatically reduces garbage output and is an ecologically sound way to dispose of plastics, metals, glass, and paper. Many communities and private enterprises are instituting recycling programs. Most of the household plastics are being accepted by these programs. Many civic organizations will pick up paper for recycling. Composting is another method · of .reducing garbage, especially in rural areas. Discarded food scraps, coffee grounds, and other wet rubbish can be added to grass clippings, garden weeds and lawn rakings in a compost pile. The compost can then be used next year on the garden or the flower bed as fertilizer. Mter recycling and composting, the garbage that remains should be disposed of at an approved, clay-line landfill, an approved incinerator, or at an approved waste collection point (i.e. township dumpsters). What are the penalties for burning household garbage? Even if you have a burning permit. to burn in your barrel, you can still be arrested for burning wet rubbish, plastic, phalt; oHy or rubber substances. Your burning permit only authorizes you to burn clean wood and paper products._ . Concern Suggestions Board frompagei:l · commends staff The State Employee Suggestion Board has commended a staff member at UWSP for an idea that promotes highway safety. Dianne M. Smith, who serves the School of Education: received several local prizes for her suggestion that round mirrors be mounted to the side rearview mirrors of state owned vehicles to eliminate blind spots. When her plan was sent to Madison, the suggestion board also cited her with a certificate and $50 check. .Beyond being literate economically, socially, and humanely we need to be environmentally literate. We need to have a strong foundation in our environment, a knowledge of interactions between man and nature. I feel there is a strong need for an environmental general degree requirement that can develop a knowledge base of en· vironmental ideas that can be re lated to any college discipiine. · Hopefully it won't be an additional requirement but one that can be infused into an already existing requirement. Mike McMahon Meanwhile, Jim Miceli, the university's mason, received $50 in the campus' most recent quarterly round of "Dollars for Your $ense." He provided a frre safety suggestion.

Well, . believe me; I've seen them and most of you look like Casper the Friendly Ghost. For .about a thousand students, graduatio~ :from ~s institution is inore than just aro\md the comer. Its . on the front porch-and knocking on the door. No, its not the Domino's mah..... its Chancellor Sanders with a diploma that has your name on it. your full name. If-you're not graduating, you know someone who is. People • are leaving friends, enemies, girlfriends, boyfriends, yes, even the Bruiser's scam who looked so hot after a few, but the next momin~ needed a visit from "The Doctor."

By the way, those pink ones have got to go. Graduates will soon be complaining of hat head from their motarboards and hoping Aunt Ethel remembers them with big bucks. At this point, I'm anticipating the "super senior" year and very happy·for now to sit on the sidelines of the Sundial. At least for a while, I'm satisfied not to recieve a peice of paper which represents years of studying, fmals, tests, stress, stress, and more stress. So instead -of · preparing a big farwell, I .o ffer we continuing studepts a rare view of a quickly :.v anishing ~breed ....the graduating senior. An informal survey of future alumni at numerous social gatherings and finer Stevens ' Point drinking establishments has given me a good evaluation of graduates' feelings on the subject of entering the "real world." All deviations aside, .. either you'te a "Counter" or an "I Can't Beleive I'm Graduating" (known as ICk- BIGs). Counters are those students who at any minute of the day can give you a hourly countdown till May 9. "Only 12 days, 3 hours, 1 minutes and 2 seC?nds until G Day!," they say w1th a grin. ounters start their countd wn the first day after we get bac from Christmas break and become increasingly f~used on the phrase "let's blow this popsicle stand." Discussion of salaried jobs, not requiring uniforms or serving food make the Counter's eyes glaze over and encourage them to mumble about life insurance and dental plans. Tired of studying for nonapplicable classes, Counter start to test run wearing flowered "power ties" and sport Beaver Cleaver haircuts. These future yupsters will iell anyone who will listen, th.at THEY are . buying the first round at Partner's Homecoming festivities. After all, by that time, they'll be pulling down $40 G's at least....once they start working for IBM. On the other side of the bar stool, are the ICk-BIGs, usually in tears. As their name suggests, these poor students don't wanf to grow up and face life past the doorofElla's. Necessities of the real world such as getting up for an 8 a.m. breakfast meeting or staying in of Wednesdays ~8k:e the ICk-BIGs start to constder grad school as a serious option.

Psychology Awards A 69-year-old grandmother is the . recipient of this . year's 1991 Albert Harris Award as the senior with the highest grade point average in psychology at UWSP. Dorothy Rogers, 3200 Water St., Apt. 127, was honored at the psychology department's 11th annual awards program and banquet April18 at the Hot Fish Shop. She received a certificate and a $25 check, and h~r name will be engraved on a plaque that is displayed on campus. The award caps a long list of citations received by Rogers in the past year. She was given a Senior Merit Award, Academy of Letters and Science Achievement Award and · became a recent inductee into the Honor Society of Phi Kappal'hi. Rogers, who grew up 'in Schofield and graduated from high school in Wausau in 1939, says she had a lifelong goal of attending a college or university. However, she recalls that her mother discouraged her and suggested instead that she study commercial subjects to ensure her future employability in offices. After rai~ing her family and having a career as an accounting and personn~l administrator at what now is Qualex Inc. photo finishers here, .she . has spent · her retirement as a regular ' UWSP student. Her plans following graduation next year are to pursue graduate study in counseling ·psychology and to eventually obtain a PH.D. "At my age, I was told I'd have a better chance getting a job if I have a doctorate," she said matter-of-factly. She has gained cOnsiderable experience in her field as a volunteer since becoming a student. Her involvement has been as a writing tutor in the Academic Achievement Center and as an intern at· the Family Crisis Center, where she co. facilitates a women's support group. Rogers is one of more than 1,300 undergraduates beyond the age of 25 who are classified as non-traditional students. This population has grown by about 100 in the past five years. "Students like Dorothy Rogers add much to the diversity of our university," said Chancellor Keith Sanders. The challenge of UWSP nowadays is to not only serve the needs of the vast number of traditional students but those who are far beyo.nd the age of 18.

I then get out of bed to take a look outside but outside is nothing like my dream. The weather outside is just horrible. _ I thought spring was actually here a while ago, but I guess I was mistaken, it is Fall. Fali, what? Does this mean that I've missed summer? I've heard all about this weird thing that happens as you get older, that everything seems t'o go much faster1 but this is ridiculous. J Boy, was that a great summer or what? It was so much fun I hardly remember it. Not to mention how fast spting went this year also. I must really be getting old in a hurry. My whole gripe.today is this crummy weather. It's supposed to be nice enough to play frisbee or have a game of softball. It's so bad out there I was seriously debating whether it would be in my best interest to brave the elements and attend class. So, I got out my winter clothes and here I am. Boy was it nasty out there. Maybe I'll just go back to sleep and dream about how nice the weather _ should be this time of the year and not how bad it actually is. So, here I go again drifting off and thinking about the warm sun and hanging around outside basking in its warm glow. What was that? Oh, thunder and lightning! What is going on now?
