/ ~QFM to remain in student hands Chancellor rejects Public Radio proposal By Pamela Kersten News Editor A proposal made by Wisconsin Public Radio in February to broadcast their programs from UW-Stevens Point's radio staWWSP-90FM was tion rejected- last week by a committee formed by Chancellor Keith Sanders. The committee consiting of faculty and students determined the proposal "would not be benificiai to 90FM," accord'ing to Dan Seeger, committe member and station manager of 90FM. - . hi a letter of response to Public Radio Chancellor Keith Sanders stated, "At the heart of the matter is the enormous respect I have for the training that students are now receivingat WWSP. To make certain that we continue that excellent training, we have made clear policy that the students themselves must run the station and we believe they do an excellent job," he said. Public Radio recently took interest in the station when the signal transmitted by the station increased from 3,600 to 11,500 watts allowing them to broadcast 60 miles in each . direction. "No non-commercial station in the area compares to our broadcast distance. It's natural that they would want to use our facility," Seeger commented. Public Radio would have broadcasted from 6 a.m. to 7 p.m. leaving only seven hours open for student broadcasting. This would decrease the amount of training provided through · the Division of Communication's emphasis in broadcasting. "The positions for student leaders would have essentially been eliminated," stated Seeger. With the proposal not being accepted by UWSP it is unlikely that Public Radio will submit an alteml!-te proposal. - continued on page 13 Annual Hunger Cleanup a success By Pamela Kersten News Editor The 5th Annual Hunger Cleanup sponsored by Association for Community Tasks took plaee last Saturday with over 350 volunteers contributing their time and effort. The volunteers, raising over $5150 in pledges, consisted largely of students and a few faculty. . They painted, raked, and cleaned at 40 various worksites in the Stevens Point area to "Take Action Against Hunger," the theme of this years effort. Registration began at 8:30 am. and was followed by speeches from Mayor Scott Schultz, Chancellor Keith Sanders, and Shane Totten a local "folk-n-roll" musician. Totten is also known in the are~ as Captain Ecology. Volunteers worked from 10 am. to 1 p.m. and then were invited to a picnic in the Knutzen Hall basement. Over 25 local businesses donated food for the occasion. The Resident Hall Association donated 400 buttons and over 200 shirts with the vears theme on them to the top pledge raisers. The Phi Omega sorority raised over $600 and received an award for the team who recieved the most pledges. Troy Saeger of the Sigma Tau Gamma fraternity raised $142. He received an award for the individual who raised the most money. 50 percent of the proceeds were given to Operation Bootstrap of Portage County, a referal organization that aides the homeless. 35 percent was given to the national student campaign and the remaining 15 The third annual Take Back the Night rally concluded with a march around campus that began in the sundial located behind the Library Resource Center.

The two events were ·"seperate and unrelated," . according to the Director of the Student Employment Office, Helen Van Prooyen. The termination of student manager Liz Georgi was the · result of "a series of events over a period of time," Van Prooyen stated. "Liz was outragously unprofessional many times." The other student managers Carolina Caligiuri, Jennifer Bognar, and Judy Kroening resigned shortly after the termination of Georgi and were released the following day. The managers, after having problems with their inunediate supervisor Rory Braenne for most of the year sought the guidance of Van Prooyen for the first time two months ago. This was the start of a series of events that lead to last weeks occurrances. "We wanted more structure. We wanted to get things done," stated Bognar. Van Prooyen claimed that the students never brought this to her attention. "It appeared that they wanted to get rid of Rory," she continued. Braenne was unavailable for comment Discussions between the staff and supervisors were "onesided" claimed Van Prooyen. "If I didn't agree with them, then they didn't want to hear it. They brought in points for discussion and wouldn't let me respond," she said. After receiving a memo concerning the first meeting, the managers became upset. "Helen took what we said and blew it out of proportion," commented Bognar. "She was never one-sided before, but. this time she defmitely was," stated Georgi. Communication ceased between Braenne and the managers following their meeting with Van Prooyen. "He wouldn't speak unless spoken to first," they stated. Braenne refused to participate in a meeting with the managers because it was ·"asked for in an unprofessional way" according to Van Prooyen. Georgi had allegedly approached Braenne asking for the meeting. "He. refused. He said it was a numbers game insinuating that it would be four against one," stated Georgi. "We never meant it to be that way." Last Tuesday the managers, Van Prooyen, and Braenne fmally attended a meeting to continued on page 13 I. INSIDE . . .

And to some students and organizations who believe The Pointer exists for the sole pur-· pose of reporting on their program, bake sale, good deed, etc. I must say--NOT! The Pointer would like to thank the many students who have come to us with intruiging, informative story ideas over the past year. Unfortunately, our student staff, who have exams to study for and papers to write just like you, don't always have the extra literary advertisement plug for them. Unfortunately, some of the same people/organizations who've expected The Pointer to be at their beck and call for public relation purposes are the same people who've complained week after week that The Pointer is not newsworthy, is full of yellow journalism (I'm still waiting for the ultimate definition of this from one of the many expert loumalists who have written letters to me over the past·year), and is not worth reading. As the academic year comes to a beautiful, relaxing, relieffilled close, there is some information that needs dissemination before I relenquish my holy section on the editorial page (which will, incidentally be filled next week with words of wisdom from next year's editor-in-chief, Kevin Thays). First of all, The Pointer is a student newspaper. It is a student production that strives for (and admittedly sometimes falls short of) professionalism. We are not a "professional" newspaper with a large staff of highly paid, promotion-driven, reporters who have nothing else to do but write, particularly in effort to promote student organizations. Secondly, we are not a public relations outlet for student organizations. Yes, we support and encourage campus involvement; nothing can beat it as a true source of education. However, there is a fine line between supporting student organizations and becoming a "If you don't like it, don't read it. Just quit bitching. " time it takes to fully cover these unique items.

Different from the average man, the unique breed of American Redneck sends his special messages of, "Hey baby," "Hey insert animal name," or "Sit it down right here mama!" to any woman unlucky enough to receive it. At UWSP and all over the country, the American Redneck interprets qis right to free speech as the tight to harass women. However, Rednecks do not view this as harassment. After hearing one exclaim to a passing woman in a bar, "Nice ass, honey," I asked ifhe actually thought he could get a date using this technique. He replied that the idea was not so much to get a date as to "just goof around with my friends." Apparently insulting women is a male bonding technique. Their disdain for women stems - from insecurity and the fear of strong women. Encouraged by his friends, a Redneck will cut women down to size by reducing them to babies, animals or a part of anatomy. All this is done in the disguise of "fun." I have observed that if the chicky/fox/babe ignores an epithet or responds angrily, she becomes a bitch/pig/sow. Or even better, she must be a "dyke"; why else would she not respond favorably to these comments? The American Redneck is a great guy; therefore, the woman in question must be a lesbian. To the Rednecks who must bond and be manly by yelling insults at women, I have some advice. In the future, when you are bonding with each other, do some other intelligent activity such as drinking until you vomit, or perhaps have a spitting contest. Whatever you choose to do, just leave women alone.

Important information was missing. Students are thereby receiving the wrong image of the South Asia Society (SAS). I therefore Wish to reinsert the following pertinent organizational data: The SAS has no one leader, and it doesn't promote any one nationality. So far we have members from Bangladesh, Cameroon, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Malaysia, Namibia, Singapore, Taiwan, and four members from the United States. We are energetic students of good will working to implement global ideas. We have come together to overcome the ig, norance that breeds racial prejudice. Understanding is the key to our unity. To promote this understanding, we gather at pot- luck dinners and share humane thoughts and ideas. Since we are all citizens of the world and from the human race, we naturally care ·about humanity. Our distinguished events prove that we are concerned about others. Members of the SAS are dedicated to increasing multicultural awareness at UWSP, because our world is interdependent. Global insight is developed through our interactions with various cultures. Getting involved with SAS is one way to advance your academic career. Since the greatest barrier in nature is between one person's thoughts and anothers, we can never communicate enough. Communication is key to a progressive organization like SAS.

I really admire them for being so open and proud about themselves. This takes a lot of coirrage considering the society, we live in. Being open · about their homosexuality is opening themselves up to abuse and hatred. I was hoping I wouldn't see any of this outward homophobia during this week, but I was not surprised when I did. What did shock me was the total malice involved. The night after the 10% Society did their chalkings around campus I carne across various chalkings with sayings like, "All Gays Die." I thought that college students would be more open-minded toward other cultures because they were more educated, and I am very disappointed to see they are not.

On Monday, I arrived at school to find the sidewalks full of 10% society gay pride slogans. On Tuesday, I started seeing straight pride slogans. At first, I thought, "Wow, this is great, heterosexuals on this campus can express pride in their sexuality without the negativity so often directed toward homosexuals." Unfortunately, it wasn't long until I was dissapointed. Here's my question for the 90% members who chalked "all fags must die," "heterosexuals rule," etc. on the sidewalks: If the 10% society can chalk the entire campus with pro- homosexualitY. slogans without one negative slogan such as· "heterosexuals must . die" or feel proud of who you are without trying to destroy the pride of everyone who is different than you? Do you feel homosexualitY is a threat to you, or do you simply see homosexuals as wrong or immoral? These are not rhetorical ques~ tions. I really would like an answer. I'll be worlting ·at the 10% society booth from 12:00-1:00 on Thursday and Friday. Please stop by.

On Thursday, Barry Rose will get a feeling of what that's like when he flies out to Buffalo to participate in the Bills' mini~ camp after being selected on Monday as the 279th pick overall in the lOth round of the National Football League's two-day 12-round draft. Following an outstanding senior season with the Pointers as a wide receiver and leading . the Wisconsin State University conference in yards (1107), touchdowns (11), and receptions (47), Rose, from Baldwin, had his hopes and dreams come true as he was picked by the AFC champ Bills, who have been the runner-up in the Super Bowl for the last two seasons. Rose, offensive player of the year for the Pointers and first team all-WSUC, just finished his fifth season after a redshirt · sophomore year. He came back from an injury-filled 1990 season to put up his outstanding numbers his senior year. "The Bills have some of the fmest receivers in the league," Rose said. "Buffalo has some great receivers but some of them are getting older and I'm sure they are looking at bringing in younger guys." For the third straight year a Pointer has been drafted.

Elmhurst Invitational Freshman members of the men's track and field team continues to impress Witt this past weekend at the Elmhurst Invitational in Illinois, where approximately 30 teams competed. Weather was not much better at Elmhurst, either. "The weather was terrible. It was 40 degrees and drizzling," added Witt.

The highlight of the late Packer picks was 1990 Reisman winning quarterback Ty Detmer. The Packers made him the 230th pick (ninth round). Small size is always a,knock on Detmer; but he is a good pick that allows the Pack a safe gamble. He will compete for a roster spot against Mike Tomczak, Don Majkowski and newcomer Brent Favre. With Wednesday's release of Blair Kiel Detmer will have one less quarterback to battle with. Other highlights include the Colts taking defensive lineman Steve Emtman and linebacker Quentin Coryatt with the draft's frrst two selections. The two will improve Indianapolis considerably. The Redskins frustrated the 27 non-champions by trading up to the fourth pick, adding Howard to their explosive offense. Cincinnati surprised many by choosing the natjon's toprated quarterback, David Klinger. New coach David fourth place respectively with times of 32:49 and 32:58. "It was the frrst time both of them ran in 10,000 and they did excellent, as did (Jason) Ryf and (Jason) Zuelke in the steeplechase," Witt said. Ryrs third place tally (9:32) was followed by Zuelke's fourth (9:44) in the steeplechase. . ' Mike Cummings took fourth place honors in the pole vault. Fifth place finishers were turned in by Dave W oyak in the 400, Tom Wilson in the discus and Mike Woyak inthe javelin. Wilson and Kevin Mahalke each came in sixth in the javelin and 5,000 meter respectively. For the women, Jessica Litjens came close to the five foot barrier in the high jump, much to the delight of Hill. "She jumped pretty well. Right now she's knocking at the five foot barrier. I think she'll make it by the end of the year," Hill said. Jenny Bowman did a fme job in the 800, winning her heat in that category--an impressive feat among the multitude of teams at Elmhurst. In the javeline, Lisa Jalowitz placed sixth for the Pointer women, and Bonnie Hall threw "really well" in the discus, according to Hill. This Saturday, May 2, the Pointers travel to La Crosse to take part in the UW-La Crosse Classic. Coaches Hill and Witt hope that the pleasant weather in Point this week follow them to La Crosse. All conference teams wil be at the meet, which may be an indicator of what the conference meet will be like the following week, also in La Crosse. "We're getting our lineup ready for conference.

In another surprising move, the John Elway-led Broncos selected a quarterback in the frrst round. UCLA's Tommy Maddox will bolster the quarterback scene in Denver. On the homefront, Wisconsin Badger defensive back Troy Vincent was taken by the Mianu Dolphins with the seventh pick. The Packers indicated they had strongly considered Vincent earlier, but took Buckley instead. JJWSP wide receiver Barry Rose was made the 279th pick (tenth round) by the Buffalo Bills.

Ask Pointer coach Bob Parker and he will share his secrets. Parker, who is an only child, was adopted by his parents at two years of age and grew up on · a farm in Alma, in the southwestern part of Wisconsin. In an interview Monday, Parker said, "Ifyoudon'thave a - good attitude you don't have anything. You're not going to get anywhere." It is Parker's good attitude and basketball skills that got his Softball trict 14 championship, and an appearance at the NAIA national tournament where they advanced to the "Sweet 16." Parker likes big players and a . tough defense but he also looks for a good attitude. "I recruit players who are hard workers, good students and like teamwork. The most im ortant thing Alma High School team to the state tournament for the first time his sophomore year. His attitude also helped him achieve all- conference, all-district, and score over 1,000 points at UWRiver Falls, where he earned a degree in broadfield social studies. After graduating from college, Parker moved from playing on winning teams to coaching winning teams. He coached at Arcadia High . School in Arcadia for ten years and the team went from never having won a conference championship to taking back-to-back championships in 1981 and 1982. Parker feels his positive outlook on life has helped his career. "I had four jobs in one year from 1983 to 1984," he ex- claimed. After guiding Western Technical College in La Crosse to runnerup in the state junior college tournament, he was to coach at Heron College in South Dakota, but the school closed. Parker then went to Valley City State University in North Dakota where again his team won the conference championship and advanced to the national tournament where they were beaten by UW-Eau Claire. At this point Parker wanted to move back to Wisconsin. "Have you ever been to North Dakota?" he asked. "l thought I saw a tree once but it was just a telephone pole." When the coaehing position at UWSP became available, Parker snapj)ed it up. This year he guided the team to a conference championship, a Dis- end, the scoreboard showed HOMES, VISITOR 7. Jenny Struebing went 3 for 3 with a double. Tina Peters and Jodi Lindquist each went two for three. Michelle Krueger battled the Pioneers for six innings only giving up four earned runs. Steigerwald entered in the seventh, earning the save. In tlie first game at River Falls, the Pointer were blanked 1-0 on two hits. The first four innings were scoreless before the Falcons scored the loan run in the game in the bottom of the fifth. Pointer pitcher Steigerwald gave up only four hits in six innings. The only run the Falcons got came on a double by Pam Latterall that drove in Kristy Dudech, who reached base on a walk. Stevens Point got on the scoreboard frrst in the second game in the top of the second in- . ning before River Falls countered with their one run in the bottom half of the inning. River Falls blew the game wide open in the fourth with eight runs. Point added a run in the fifth but could manage no more to fall to defeat 9-2. Michelle Krueger suffered the loss for the Pointers, giving up eight hits. Steigerwald, playing the field in the second game, had the only RBI for the Pointers. The other Pointer run was unearned. UWSP had eight hits in the game, two by Lindquist, and one each by Gabrielson, Steiger- wald, Mortenson, Peters, Webb and Krueger. UWSP increased their record to 4-20, 3-10 in conference, and 3- 3 in their division, good for third place in the East Division. , The Pointers go to La Crosse this weekend to take part in the conference tournament. They'll start the tournament on Friday against host La Crosse at 9 a.m. A win against the Eagles would have them playing at 3 p.m. If they lose, they '11 play at 1:30 p.m. Two losses eliminate a team from th_e tourney. - is a positive attitude-though. Losing becomes contagious if you don't get out of the doldrums." Parker looks forward to coaching many more winning teams at UWSP. When asked what his next career move is Parker replied, "I'm content here. I think I'll stick around a while." HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!. frompage6 Amy Steige.; wald stepped up for the Pointers and threw a four-hit one-run game. That one run ended up being the difference. Again UWSP wasn't able to produce any runs. Four times Point had scoring opportunities, and each time they came up empty. The Pointers out-hit Platteville 6-4, but a costly error in the second allowed the only run of the game. Shelly.Daane went two for three with a triple, Lisa Mortenson also added a three bagger. In game two, each team came out swinging the bat. The teams combined for 21 hits. The beginning of this slugfest began in the bottom of the first. The top of the order went five for five collecting three runs to take the early lead. Platteville grabbed three runs for themselves in the top of numbertwo. · In the third, Daane swatted the second of her two hits, she eventually crossed the plate, gaining a 4-3 advantage. Each time a team took the lead, the other retaliated with runs of their own. Lucky-seven lived up to its reputation for the Pointers. In the bottom of the seventh, with the game tied at seven, subbing in at position seven, at almost seven o'clock, Kendi Linger pinch- hit for a single. Linger proceeded to steal second and third.

Tickets are available at the College of Fine Arts and Communication box office, (715)346-4100. In the UWSP production, Jennifer Klaas will play tlie role of Blanche DuBois, Andrew Erlandson will portray Stanley Kowalski, Tricia Theiler will play Stella Kowalski, and Daniel Katula will portray Harlod Mitchell in one of the .director's all time favorite plays. When teaching, Hopper says he often uses "Streetcar" as an example of effective dramatic structure and subtly drawn characterization. Through the tragedy surrounding Blanche, the fra2ile southern flower, and Stanley, the .' primitive realist,Williams has explored universal themes about the human need for understanding and the struggle of beauty and sensitivity to survive in a harsh world.

Hopper says his student cast is young, but he's happy with their dedication to and u~derstanding of the drama and their roles in it. Because the writing itself is of such high quality, he says, the playwright made it easifr for the actors to trust the script and to perform it well. .

"Once yhu got going it wasn't bad, you still felt good about what you were doing," stated Alicia Ferriter, team leader for RHA. "If everyone who participated this year would bring one more person with them next year it would be great," Ferriter continued. "I'd like to extend congradulations and thanks to everyone involved throughout the whole campaign. Without the individual efforts of everyone we wouldn't have had the best Hunger Cleanup ever," stated Medland. UWSP came in second in the state for pledges behind Marquette University in Milwaukee. In-line skating gr9wing fast by Marc Strapon Contributor More and more around campus you can see people skating on the pavement. The type of skates that are· being used have three to four wheels in a row as opposed to the old side by side rollerskate models. "These new type of skates allow you to go faster, turn sharper and give you a much smoother ride," said Todd Tretter a junior on the UWSP hockey team. People often call the in-line skates "Rollerblades" which is not a generic term for them. The Rollerblade name is a registered trademark of Rollerblade, Inc. To say that you are going to go rollerblading is incorrect. Correct is to say you are going to go in-line skating which signifies that the wheels are all in a straight line on the boot of a skate. The Rollerbiade company originally introduced their skates as an off~season training tool for hockey players in 1980, but they were quickly adapted by nordic and alpine skiers as well. In 1986~ the company redefmed and expanded the inline skate market to include general fitness enthusiasts and recreation seekers, as well as cross-training athletes from numerous sports. Today, in-line skating sports such as roller hockey and racing, are rapidly growing in popularity. The Rollerblade company has more than 50 percent of the market and generated about $100 million in sales in 1991. According to American Sports Data, there are 6.2 million inline skaters in the United States, a 45 percent increase over a year ago. The National Sporting Goods Association estimates that in-line skate sales so far this year are up more than 200 percent over last year. "It's a great form of exercise that is fun and challenging," said Kim Luenbery, a sophomore from Racine. Rose Frompage6 will have to make. "The system we used is not that much different from what teams like Buffalo use. I don't expect a lot of problems learning the offensive system or adjusting to terminology." 1 Some draft predictors had Rose going as high as the fourth, fifth, or sixth round, while others had him going even later than he did in the lOth. Some said that he would have to catch on as a free agent. Rose didn't really care where he was picked in the draft, as long as he was picked. "It's everybody's hopes and dreams to be selected in the NFL draft. Be it the lOth round or the fifth round I'm just happy that I was drafted," added Rose. In a draft full of defensive backs, Rose wasn't . too surprised that he was picked late. "Most of the teams were filling their needs on defense since that was the major strength of the draft before they looked to their offense. My versatility is one thing that Buffalo liked about-me. I'll do whatever they ask of me, whether it's on the kickoff or punts coverage teams or returning punts or kickoffs," Rose said. As for his chances to stick on with the highly explosive offense of the Bills once the regular season begins, Rose said: "lfeel real confident. I'm going to take it one day at a time. Right now I got my foot in the door. "If I do the things they ask me to do and continue to do the things that got me here, I believe I'll be in a pretty good position," added Rose. · Rose has been in contact with his agent, based in Minneapolis. Conflict Radio 10% frompagel frompagel frompage2 discuss everything for the first time together. The meeting became a "shouting match" according to Van Prooyen and Georgi "left before it concluded." Public Radio may go to the UW-System Board of Regents who holds the fmal decision in the matter, but "they have always supported students opinions in the past," Seeger said. "We felt like we were the enemy," stated Caligiuri. It was after that meeting Georgi returned home to discover her termination notice in the mail. "We've said thanks, but no . thanks to Public Radio and I think that will stick.," concluded Seeger. "I was hurt that Helen had not told me personally," stated Georgi. "She had been a friend and a listener to me as well as my boss," she continued. acts of hate and stupidity. Barrett says "we are fighting against alot of ignorance and homophobia on this ca1ppus.'' The 10% Society has been instrumental in providing information about homosexuals and other minorities both on and off. campus. Representatives from the society have spoken to teachers conventions and local high schools about the oppression of minorities including gays on a variety of issues. The society derived its name from the national organization. It refers to the fact that one out of ten people art? gay or lesbian. "She didn't keep her schedule," Van Prooyen explained. "It was hard to get a hold of her." Although Van Prooyen claims that Georgi's termination had nothing to do with events including Braenner she still felt Georgi was the "ring leader" throughout the events. Contrary to Van Prooyen's belief, Georgi feels she's been wrongly blamed for the lack of communication and the consequences. "I didn't start this and I'm being blamed for it.

It shouldn't let me explain. There is no shame in hiring a guide or a charter boat when you go fishing. I know that many anglers think the challenge of "learning" a new body of water is half the fun, and they might be right. But lots of other sport fishers simply don't have the time or the equipment or the experience to explore a new area by themselves. I only had two days to fish for bass in Florida and decided I couldn't afford to blunder around on my own. Catching fish isn't always important to me, but it was in this instance.

It includes everything from food safety, to land use, testing protocol, public health, etc.. " Meersman, an environmental, energy, and natural resources reporter with MPR was the keynote speaker last Thursday evening for a program entitled "Walking the Tightrope of Environmental Journalism." Meersman was joined by panelists· Don Behm, environmental reporter for The Milwaukee Journal, Robert Fassbender, director of environmental policy for the Wisconsin Manufacturers and Commerce Association, and Carl Zichella, Midwest regional director of the Sierra Club. Meersman used the first Earth Day as a focal poinffor the birth of environm~ntal journalism. "What followed was landmark environmental legislation," claimed Meersman, listing such regulation as the Clean W ~er Act, the Endangered Spectes Act the Wilderness Act, and the fo~ation of the Environmental Protection Agency· Ac;cording to Meers!flan, jou~aiists' lack of expenence and education in scientific fields is just one of the many elements to the "tightrope" aspect of environmental journalism.

The DNR book of rules and regulations defines "rough-fish" as suckers redhorse carp. In the past, bowfm and garfish have been open targets for bOw fishing, a conversations with DNR officials in Wisconsin Rapids left me uncertain of their current standing. As a beginner to bow-fishing, a tackle or arche'ry shop can do a weatthy and carry hundreds of fresh tipped arrows, reduce your draw-weight and shoot with discretion. Remember, the taking offish by any means other than with hook and line is illegal within 200 feet of a dam. If you are not sure it is a rough fish, don't shoot it. The man would be more th~Ul happy to show you the error of your ways and liberate your money and equipment. Know .they rules and abide by them. Because the "whiffle" arrow has not yet been invented, bowfishing is not conducive to catch-release. Unless you plan on eating your catch (fool-hardy on the Wisconsin River) concentrate your shooting on damaging non-natives such as carp versus bowfin and suckers. Despite their classification as rough-fish suckers and bow-fm are native species which have evolved with their environments. These fish as a whole are not spawn eaters (unlike trout) and are actually helpful versus harmful. Bowfins cull countless small bluegills and thus help control stunting. Suckers provide a forage base for: many "game fish," and trout streams have been known to suffer in their absence. Locate a shallow slough on a map and try bowfishing. A boat is not necessary and I have taken most of my fish from the bank. Waders or "trash-boots" are helpful though, plan on getting your feet wet. Polarized glasses are very helpful, as are a good knife and a pair of pliers. Over all the sport is inexpensive and will help you keep in shape for the upcoming hunting season.

Prevent Lyme's by Wendy Wagner Kraft the disease to progress into one Staff Writer Creeping and crawling their way up your legs and down your back, they announce their silent arrival. It's tick time! Along with' the influx of ticks comes the risk of being infected with Iyme disease. Lyme disease can cause major joint, sight, heart, and nervous system problems. Problems all caused by a bacteria transmitted through the bite of the deer (bear) tick- a critter smaller than the head of a nail. There are three major stages in the progression of the disease to be aware of: Stage #1 Symptoms: *fever *chills *nausea *fatigue * aching joints * a spreading rash The circular rash in this stage I may appear anywhere from three to 32 days after being bit. ten,,by an infected tick. It is a myth that all infected people develop the rash. The Wisconsin Department of Health and Social Services reports that 30 percent of people with lyme disease do not develop this rash. Stage #2 Symptoms: This stage may take weeks or even mot;~-ths to appear, and may bring with it heart block, meningitis, and facial paralysis. I · Stage #3_Symptoms: It may take up to several years for this stage to appear, with arthritis being the most common symptom.

If you are diagnosed with the disease you'll most likely be given antibiotics. The best way to avoid being infected is by dressing defensively for ticks: light colored clothing, pant legs tucked inside boots, and long sleeves. If you want even more assurance of discouraging those tiny terrors from nipping at you, get yourself some insect repellent containing 30 percent Deet. Be aware that some repellents can be irritating to your skin. · Rub the repellent on your clothing instead. If you do happen to find a tick taking a liking to you, don't · panic. Most ticks that you'll see are the black wood ticks. They are almost twice as large as a deer tick, and for the most part are harmless. The deer (bear) tick is very tiny and is a orangebrown color.
