Contract bids stall hall renovation

Problems with contract bids
have pushed completion dates
back over a year for residence
hall renovations that will eventually improve hall life but raise
room rates.
The kitchens scheduled for
completion in each floor of Hansen and Steiner Halls by September, 1992, will likely be
completed by the end of the
semester, according to Randy
Alexander, University Housing
director.
The plumbing for the kitchens
will be installed along the same
wall that will hold the recycling
chutes to be built on each floor,

"Your parents always used to
by Collin Lueck
Contributor
Russian poet Yevgeny Yevtushenko stressed the need for
brotherhood at all levels of
society in his address at
Convocation XVI.
"Your face is not only your
own. It is part of the face of your
country...ofthe family of man,"
said Yevtushenko in his address, "How Not to Lose Face."
Yevtushenko spoke of the
beauty of humanity and the opportunity for brotherhood, even
in suffering.
·
"There are no fences or borders between those who suffer;"
he said. "People who tum their
suffering into a quest for
brotherhood become more
beautiful."
He expressed his distaste for
hypocrasy, indifference and selfishness.
"Only in saving others will
you save yourself," he said.
Y evtushenko urged his
audience to strive (or love and
brotherhood within their own
families.
"The family is the first unit of
humanity where we learn to coexist," he said. "When you slap
your children in the face, you
lose your own."
He applied this concept to our
global community. "History,"
he said, "is a mosaic of faces,
both criminal and beautiful."
"The twentieth century is not
yet fmished," Yevtushenko
said.
"You could help to
prevent it from chanaging into

Assessment tops concerns
Assessments that will be required before graduation to test
students' knowledge in their
major will be an important issue
for students and the student
government this year, SGA
President David Kunze said
Wednesday.
In a first-ever Student State of
the University address, Kunze
said the SGA will work to ensure that the assessments will
not increase a student's stay at
the university, be an additional
cost to students or prevent students from graduating if they
don't pass the assessment.
"The focus of the assessment
should be on departments, their
techniques !lnd abilities, not individual student success or
failure," he said. "Students
should not fail an assessment,
departments should."
The Student and Faculty
Senates are expected to vote on
~lle assessment program by
December.
The student government will
also introduce legislation which
would allow them to review all
segregated fee budgets and will
request an itemized tuition bill
listing each fee separately,
Kuniesaid.
"This new system will...assure
that students are getting the best
services at the best possible
prices," he said.
The newly applied fee for
comprehensive software environment, which for full-time
students is around nine dollars,
will be changed within a year to
exclude the portion of the cost
that covers software used by
faculty and staff.
Other issues addressed by
Kunze included the evaluation
of lighting on and around campus and the retention of more
colored people on campus,
which will be handled by Issues
Directors.
David Kunze
Alicia Ferriter, Shared Governance Director, will complete a
Communal Bill of Rights this
year, which will outline student
rights and expectations, said
Kunze.
Kunze urged students as well
as the media to be informed and
involved in their student
government.

Board stuck on
smoking policy
by Bill Downs
Contributor
The University Center Policy
Board was unsuccessful Tuesday in reaching a decision on
how to fairly evaluate the results
.of a survey conducted at checkpoint.
SGA President Davtd Kunze
said the survey he saw was
"slanted and biased" but added
that he hadn't thoroughly examined it.
Kunze went on to say the
people surveyed don't represent
a random sample because those
who ~ad no opinion either way
about smoking didn't participate.
The issue of smoking in the UC
has been on the agenda of the
UCPB for over a year.
In a meeting in March, the
board decided to conduct a survey to determine if there was a
need to modify the smoking
policy.
·
The format for the survey was
agreed upon in August, but the
board was unable to come up
with guidelines at that time for
analyzing the results of the survey.
The surveys were distributed to
students at checkpoint this
semester and approximately
5500 surveys of the nearly 6000
handed out were completed.
Bob Shear of Recreational Services suggested that the surveys
should be evaluated on what the
majority of those responding
wanted.
"If the surveys say the policy
should stay the same, then nothing should be done. Leave it
alone," he said.
A motion was made and passed
to create a sub-committee to
fmd a faculty representative to
interpret the results of the survey.

Humanity needs to be considered by an ·
By Pamela Kersten
Editor in Chief
Culture touched the UWSP
campus yesterday in the form of
Yevgeny Yevtushenko.
The Russian poet enriched
Convocation XVI with his interpretation of "How Not to Lose
Face," an interesting topic to say
the least
Many people worry about
"saving face" at one point or
another in their lives. Outright
lying isn't uncommon for many
when they realize they have
screwed up and don't want to
get caught
Yevtushenko's outlook enlighted me, making me examine
the many times I have needed to,
let's say, cover my tracks.
He stressed indifference to
others noting that any of God's
creatures, even down to animals
deserve respect
Many of us say one thing and
think another just to look good
in the eyes of our friends. An
easy example is recycling.
Everyone advocates a cleaner
nation right? How many people
ALWAYS recycle?
Hypocrites scatter our school,
our community and our nation.
Many verbalize their complaints to the point of being obnoxious.
To that Yevtushenko stated
one of my favorite quotes,
"People in glass houses
shouldn't throw stones."
Trying to embrace the whole of
humanity instead of just your
immediate surroundings isn't
always that easy to do. We're
out for ourselves right? Wrong.
That's the attitude that has
found our world in dire
straights.
Making ait excellent point he
explained that it is not our right
to decide what's right and what
is wrong for the most part.
Yes punishing people needs to
be done at times, but when done,
the impact on the world as a
whole should be taken into consideration--not just what we
want
Our second family as Yevtushenko explained is humanity.
"Remember knowledge in the
face ofindifferencecanbe a termin~tl
weapon
against
humanity. Only compassion
armed with knowledge is invincible. When you slap your
children in the face, you lose
your owl\:"
I can't go without explaining
my favorite part of his speech to
you. "I would like to be a
woman," he stated. "Just once."
He said that men wouldn't be
so cruel if they could g_ive birth.
Of course I had to agree with
him because he was definitely
right
All you tough guys out there
take notice, Yevtushenko is a
smart guy!
His fmal advice to the overflowing crowd should be taken
to heart by all--don't use more
than one mirror because in this
case you will waste half of your
life.
Essentially he meant set your
goals and values and hold fast to
them. Having more than one set
can confuse you and lead you
away from what you truly
believe.

Free trade: Myth vs. Reality
By Gov. Edmund
Brown, Jr.
D-California
Under the banner of free trade
and corporate restructuring,
American employers have
shifted millions of U.S. jobs to
lower-wage foreign production
sites.
The reason is clear: equally
skilled foreign workers can do
the same job for a lot less. ·
This is the dark truth lurking
behind the notion that the North
American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) will create high
paying jobs.
Much more likely is a slide
down:ward in terms of wage
levels and environmental standards.
Such a result is inevitable if the
United States links itself to
Mexico, where average wage
levels are l/10 of America's ..
In Mexico, environmental laws
go unenforced, unions are captive to the state and the political
system is distorted by corruption and electoral fraud.
. Opening the trade border with
Mexico should inspire open and
honest public debate.
Instead, NAFTA has been
negotiated in secret and written
in arcane language.
Making things worse is the undemocratic "fast track" process
which will be used for congressional consideration of both
NAFTA and th General Agreement on Trade and Tariffs
(GATT).
Under this restricted parliamentary procedure, the
power of Congress is reduced to
a simple yes or no vote and time
allotted for debate is severely
limited.
This makes a mockery of Ar- .
ticle I, Section 8, of the Constitution which gives Congress
the power "To regulate commerce with foreign nations... "
The international flow of
goods and services has dramatically expanded in recent years,
but in such a perverse way that
the gap between the rich and the
poor has doubled.
Also, the industrial assault on
natural systems--marine
fisheries, tropical forests, top
soil, rivers and the protective
ozone layer--has intensified.
In this context, the slogan "free
trade" misses the point.
Instead of wasteful production
and frenetic global exchange,
we need a serious commitment
to just and sustainable economic
PLEA~E
policies.
Washington insiders--the
people who lobby congress and
pay for the campaigns or the
media that reports it--talk as
though "free trade" always
raises wages and generates good
jobs.
The facts indicate otherwise.
Since 1973, American trade
with other nations has doubled,
butthevalueof American weekly paychecks has fallen 18%.
In the last decade alone, the
number of young men working
full-time who earn only apoverty wage has increased '100%.
The U.S. economy expanded-national income per capita gt:ew
28%--but the benefits were
channeled to those with the
highes incomes.
Inequality grew because the
American economy was
deregulated and subjected to
destructive global competition.
Executives, investors, corporate lawyers and media pundits who were insulated from
foreign competition benefitted,
but tens of millions of others,
many of whom had once enjoyed high paying jobs, did not.
American democracy rests on
a system which recognizes sig-
RECYCLE!
nificant differences among
various states and localities.
GATT and NAFTA, however,
in the name of eliminating
"technical" barriers to trade,
restrict local citizens and communities from setting their own
standards.
• Under both NAFTA and
GATT, we will be subjected to
a super-government of distant
and non-elected trade experts,
whose narrow fram'e of
reference has nothing of the
robust diversity of democratic
participation.
What is needed in place of
GATT and NAFTA are trading
agreements and national
policies which from the beginning. emphasize social justice,
the enrichment of local communities and genuine respect
for the environment.
Such agreements and policies
would be novel because they
would, in the words of President
Clinton,"Put people first."
Under this approach, we would
ask not what will help international companies get the
cheapest foreign workers, but
what will reduce growing inequality and strengthen every
American community.

Greek ideals hold
strong·over the years
Dear Editor,
I recently ran across a letter that
ran in the Pointer the week of
October 31, J975.
Being a member of a Greek
Letter Organization myself, it
struck me how much the
original letter still rings true
today, almost twenty years after
it was originally published.
I would like for you to rerun the
article. Not only does it serve as
a source of pride for myself and
other Greeks, but helps to educate the uniformed.
The article encourages individuals to make their own
- choices, irrelevant io whatever
stereotypes they may have
learned ..
Thanks.

the same as pledging a social organization.
Each of the Greek organizations have a purpose either than
being "drinking buddies."
We're a family unit, people to
tum to when one has problems,
people who like to get involved
with life.
Pledging into a Greek Organization is not when we make
you, the pledge, do activities
that would embarrass you or us;
but rather the time to get to
know about the organization,
the people in it and most important, the time to develop the trust
and friendship that we as Greeks
want to extend to all.
Get to know a Greek before
you believe the stereotype put
on the word. Trust yourself, not
what others tell you.
Some of us were anti-Greek
until we realized that Greeks are
not a group of rich snobs getting
their kicks by hassling pledg~s,
but a group of friends joined
together.
To the Pointer,
The sisters of Alpha Sigma
Alpha, one of the Greek Organizations here on campus, felt
it necessary to inform all of you

Center offers more than leather couches
Counseling is centered on teaching students to help themselves
by Lisa Herman
Features Editor
Many· students encounter
problems that are not easily
resolved, or ones in which their
usual ways of resolving them
are not working.
The UWSP Counseling Center
is here to help.
To some students it may seem
like a scary place. This article
may allay those fears.
If you ate an incoming freshman, you may remember receiving a flyer containing
information about the Center
titled "What is Counseling?"
Personal counseling is a
chance to talk over what is on
your mind with an objective person.
Counselors may help you learn
new skills so that you will be
more capable of solving new
problems on your own in the future.
· Serious issues and concerns
confronting students include:
adjusting to college life, setting
personal goals, death of a loved
one, family problems, test
anxiety, roommilte conflicts,
eating disorders, stress and
relationships--just to name a
few.
For-a first appointment, all students are asked to complete
some forms to provide background information.
After that is completed, a
professional staff member will
talk to a student about concerns
that brought them to the Center.
Service is oriented around a
short-term therapy model. The
Center has found this brief approach is very effective for the
majority of people seeking help.
Sometimes it is necessary for a
student to be involved in longerterm therapy. The Center can
assist them in making a referral
to an appropriate individual or
agency.
The Counseling Center not
only offers free and confidential
psychological consultation and
counseling, but also services
where students can access information and help for themselves.
So, if you are a student that
doesn't think you need to talk to
a professional, there is information available for students to
help themselves.
Acting Director Dr. Sharon
Gahnz is very excited about the
new services and programs that
will be available to students.
"The theme this year is helping students be better students,"
she said.
The self-help and career
libraries where students access
information is currently being
expanded.
Psychoeducational groups on
stress management, violence in
relationships and anger
management are being offered
this fall and next semester.
The goal is to have these and
similar programs available
every semester.
"There are so many things that
impinge on students; workshops
like these are necessary," Gahnz
said.
Students unsure of a major may
also find the Counseling Center
very useful.
Testing Services are located
right next to the Center. There,
students can register and obtain
information on national testing
programs like .GRE, LSAT,
CLEP, etc.
In the near future there will be
computerized te-sting at the
Center.
For example, a student will be
able to set an appointment to
take their GRE and take the
exam right on the computer.
Instead of having to wait six
weeks for the results, the student
will get their score immediately.

Steel Magnolias, Robert

Directed by Robert Baruch of
the theatre faculty, the production will open at 8 p.m., Friday,
Oct. 1 and continue on the evenings of Oct. 2 and 3 and 7-9 in
the Jenkins Theatre of the Fine

Greek life rushes to-Stevens Point
by Stacy Fox
Copy Editor
Animal House...loud, drunk
people wearing togas, doing
beer slides and partying 'til all
hours of the night
Is this bow you picture fraternity and sorority life? If so, take
a good close look at what
Greeks here at UWSP are really
all about!
For the next couple of weeks,
the official "Rush" season for
fraternities and sororities, it will
be difficult to walk on campus
without seeing posters on the
walls or chalk on the sidewalk,
telling you "Go Greek!"
The eight Greek organizations
on our campus have bigger concerns and brighter ideas than
those portrayed on the movie
screen.
And great diversity among the
groups helps assure there is one
for almost everyone.
Jen Toepel said she "felt at ease
with Phi Omega. They were so
friendly and down to earth...l
felt like I fit right in."
LeifTolokken first considered
Tau Kappa Epsilon because his
father is a member.
After joining, be knew be made
the right decision. "It's such a
close niche of friends," Tolokken stated.
"Everyone's a
friend in TKE."
Angi Baldwin of Delta Phi Epsilon agrees.
"Joining the
sorority was one of the best
things I did at college. I've met
my best friends through D-Pbi-
E."
And if you were to ask a Phi
Sigma Kappa, be would insist
that "Phi Sigs is Brotherhood at
its best."
But Greek life is more than just
. making friends.
Each organization is invplved
in different projects to help improve both this university and
the community we live in.
In addition to participating in
Hunger Clean-Up each year,
Greeks have provided valuable
assistance from raking leaves
and trimming bushes for the
elderly to helping out as crossing guards for children at Halloween.
,
Community service does not
stop there, either. Several of the
organizations have won ACT
community service awards and
all are dedicated to various
philanthropies they choose to
support
Sigma Tau Gamma, the largest
fraternity on campus, devotes
time and energy to help with Big
Brothers/Big
Sisters
and
Habitat for Humanity in our
c01mnunity.
Phi Sigma Kappa helps
provide Toys for Tots, Zeta Epsilon Nu sorority raises money
for the Portage County
Women's Shelter, Tau Kappa
Epsilon participates in the
Adopt a Highway Program, and
Gamma Phi Delta, the newest
sorority on campus, will be participating in Sexual Assault
Victim Services.
Every year, D-Phi-E holds
programs on alcohol awareness,
time management, and eating
disorders--all of which are open
for anyone to attend.
Other Greeks are following
suit.
ZEN plans on providing crime
awareness · and self-defense
programs this year, and Sig
Taus are hoping to have alcohol
and sexual assault awareness
speakers brought in as well.
Together, the Greek com- munity bas also developed
GAMMA--Greeks Advocating
the Mature Management of Alcohol.
Through it they hope to help
educate and encourage mature
drinking habits for all university
·
students.
Gamma Phi Delta understands
that most students are involved
in many university activities.
"Our members participate in
many things," - Co-Vice President Pani Kersten said.
"It's taken into account and aJlowances are made if you need
to miss events.
·
We defmitely plan to support
time management programs.
They can help everyone."

For some students, the return to
the educational institute of
UWSP means a return to traditional ways of learning.
However, for others who have
ventured off the traditional path,
the return to the fall semester
means learning in a new way.
The experiences one receives
from leaving Wisconsin: and
lc~aving the United States are
memories of a lifetime. The
learning process is opened up to
various ways of thinking.
For many, including an estimated one hundred UWSP students who have chosen to
witness the world that goes on
outside of the USA first hand, a
new view has been opened.
On August 23, 1993, various
membersofthe UWSPsemester
in Genii any program made their
different connections to their
first destination.
One group of students let us
know of their adventures.
A few wrote about adventuririg
throughout Amsterdam, Holland with little sleep, and busstopping at the house in which
Anne Frank, of "Diary" fame,
hid out during World War II.
Others landed directly in
Frankfurt, immediately touring
the Gennan town of Darmstadt,
just about 20 kilometers from
Frankfurt. Miles do not exist in
Europe.
They found "das Haus der
Jugend ", which means, "the
house ofYouth"--known to students as a youth hostel.
The students left with
adrenaline highs. They discovered Sachsenhausen, which
is the oldest part of Frankfurt-containing oodles of pubs,
cafes, discos and even the AllAmerican favorite McDonald's.
The students wrote, "We experienced the lively European
life as only Frankfurt could offer
us."
The students continued their
travels by seeking Dresden,
which was six hours by train
from Frankfurt.
·
Many changes were witnessed
as the students left the West and
entered a new dimension, that of
the fonner East Gennan culture.
Everything turned into a
farmland, spotted with broken
down buildings.
Dresden was heavily bombed-virtually destroyed--during
World War II by AngloAmerican bombers.
It was left to its own futile
decay as a hideous eastern bloc
concrete prefab.
Later, a climb to the top of the
Cathedral Tower allowed these
individuals a spectacular view
of Dresden and the Elbe River,

With "TheSonofthePinkPanther," director Blake Edwards
has revived his most famous
character and one of
Hollywood's most enduring
comedy series.
The question to be answered is,
"Can you make a successful
'Pink Panther' film without the
comic genius of Peter Sellers?"
This film attempts to answer
that question.
· The story begins when terrorists kidnap the princess of the
, Middle Eastern country of
Lug ash.
Jacques Gambrelli, the illegitimate son of Inspector Jacques Clouseau, falls in love with
the princess and vows to rescue
her.
But the plot is not really important. The real star here is Roberto Benigni, the Italian actor
given the · unenviable job of
trying to replace Peter Sellers.
He succeeds precisely because
that is NOT what he tries to do.
Sure, there are moments that
are very Sellers-like--the
mispronunciation of certain
words like "bump" and "law,"
the slapstick comedy of a bungling police officer, and so on.
But Benigni brings enough of
this own unique brand of comedy to the role, that you don't get
the impression that he is just
trying to imitate Sellers as
Clouseau.
He plays the inept Italian
detective almost as well as
Sellers played an inept FrenCh
detective.
Blake Edwards' direction is as
sure as always, proving once
again that he is one of the few
directors left in Hollywood who
can do successful slapstick comedy.
However, there are moments in
the ftlm, particularly those-moments involving the support~g
cast from previous films (including Herbert Lorn, Burt
Kwouk and Graham Stark), that
make you long for the days of
Peter Sellers.
Roberto Benigni is uniquely
funny, but there is only one
Sellers.
So; to answer the question,
"Can you make a successful
"Pink Panther" film without
Peter S_ellers?," the answer is
yes.
"Son of the Pink Panther" is a
funny, likeable film.
Roberto Benigni does a fine
job and is a worthy successor,
but not replacement for Peter
Sellers.

And so UWSP cross country
it goes ... breezes to good finish
by Lincoln Brunner
Sports Editor
Different shades
of fan devotion
The sporting world, as we
know, is simply awash in
souvenir merchandise that
people treasure more than TV
and Sunday comics put
together. So, naturally we
should want to know just who
sells the most, right?
If you said "No," good for you.
I'm just doing this to pass the
.time.
I just read that the Chicago
Cubs are regulars on the annual
major League Top Ten List of
Merchandise Sales.
This logically shouldn't be.
Though I love them with all my
broken heart, the noun "Cubs" is
perpetually associated with the
verb "stink," as in "That trash
stinks like the Cubs! Git it outta
here!"
.
But it's the loyalty of the fans
· that keeps Wrigley Field, and all
baseball stadiums, filled. It's
good a fan is still labeled darkly
when his or her voice is only
heard when there's something
to cheer about.
Geesh, the last time the Cubs
won anything significant,
George Bush was still pulling
old photos of Ronald Reagan
and Bonzo out of the Oval Office desk. Yet that big red "C"
sells better than cheap beer at a
tractor pull.
Now if people were only concerned about winning and
losing, they'd be assaulting
sales people for anything with a
Blue Jays, Phillies or Giants
emblem.
Fact is, none of these teams
ranked in top ten this season.
}1owever, the two expansion
clubs, the Rockies and Marlins,
were first and third respectively. Neither one will finish
ab.:>ve .500 this year.
Other such aromatic teams like
the A's, Mets and Dodgers are
also among the elite. More
· stench than a Calcutta dump and
more cash than two oil barons at
a yacht party.
Common sense is powerless
here.
Two teams buck my theory,
and rightly so. The Chicago
White Sox and Atlanta Braves
are quite versed in tush-kicking,
and they also placed very high
on the sheet.
·
I think it has a lot to do with the
colors, too, for which many redblooded guys out there will
shout at the paper and tell me to
go window-shopping with the
ladies.
But consider this-- if the White
Sox wore mauve and peach instead of silver and black, they
couldn't give caps or jerseys
_away with trips to J:Iawaii.
Plus, everyone knows a woman
who was willing to watch the
most horrific teams play each
other because of the colors of
their uniforms. That's not
sexist. That's the truth.
The Sox, in fact, changed from
traditional red, white and blue to
their present hues for merchandising reasons-- colors that grab
instead of ones that make you
saluete. A good move considering they jumped to number one
the very next year (1991).
So is it the hard-nosed devotion
or the eye-catching colors that
keep the fans cheering for more?
As much as I'd like to say the
devotion, I don't think I could
ever watch another Cubbies
game if I saw them in light pink
jumpsuits. The big red "C" just
wouldn't look the same.

'The men's and women's cross
country teams passed their first
true test of the season with
flying colors as both squads
competed in the Les Duke Invite
Saturday at Grill1lell College
(Iowa).
The teams did UWSP proud as
both placed in the top ten in their
respective divisions.
On the men's side, UWSP
finished fourth overall behind
North Central, who won the
event, and conference foes LaCrosse and Oshkosh who
finished second and third
respectively.
"I was very pleased with our
performance," said men's head
coach Rick Witt "I wanted to
see if we were contenders or
pretenders, and we found out
that we do have a good team."
Leading the way for the men
once again was Jeremy Johnson
who placed sixth overall with a
time of25:40.
"Jeremy was right where we
wanted, which was in the top
ten," said Witt. "He did a really
good job."
Next in for UWSP was David
Niedfeldt who came in twenty-
first overall with a time of26:33,
followed by Jason Zuelke who
finished twenty-seventh overall
with\ time of 26:42.
Witt was also pleased with the
performance of some of the
younger runners on the team as
well, recognizing the performances of Chad Witt and Shane
Domfield.
"I was happy with the way
Chad ran," said Witt, "and
Domfield, who is a freshman,
ran good in his first race. We all
ran well."
The women also ran well for
UWSP as they placed ninth
overall, while Wartburg captured the overall team event.
Women's head coach Len Hill
seemed pleased with the performance of his young team.
"We did an excellent job," said
Hill. "We can do better, as it
was a learning experience for
many of our young team members."
Hill was also hopeful his outfit
would get recognized after their
strong showing in Iowa.
"We were not in the rankings
prior to this meet. However, I
think we should make it after
this kind of performance," said
Hill.
Wendi Zak and Jessie Bushman were the top runners for
UWSP, placing thirty-third and
thirty-ninth respectively. Zak
ran a time of 19:42 and Bushman squeaked in behind with a
19:43.
"Wendi and Jessie finished
right together," said Hill. "They
each have very different kinds
of talents. I hope we can figure
out just how they can work
together to help each other out."
Mia Sondreal was next for
UWSP, placing forty-sixth
overall and Tina Jarr followed
with respective times of 19:49
and 19:58.
Pam Prohaska, who came in
sixty-ninth overall, also had a
strong showing with a time of
20:08.
Hill was happy with the performance of Sondreal, Jarr and
Prohaska .
"That is exactly what we need
to have happen if we are going
to be good," said Hill. "We need
some people to fill the gaps that
were left due to graduation."
Both teams look to continue
their string of good performances when they travel to Oshkosh
on Friday, to compete in the always tough UW-Oshkosh Triangular.

The Pointer women's tennis
team was pushed to the limit last
weekend as all eight singles
players competed in 3 singles
and 3 doubles matches in the LaCrosse Invitational.
· Junior Danyel Sweo placed
highest for UWSP in the four- .
team OW-LaCrosse Invitational.
She snatched third in her flight,
· defeating Tara Bruestle of LaCrosse in the first match, losing
to Erika Schmitt of Luther in the
second and coming back to win
a grueling match over Heidi
Sternberg of LaCrosse, 7-6 (97), 7-5, in the third.
"This was a good weekend for
us - the competition was very
strong," said head coach Nacy
Page.
·Freshmen Carmel Thorsen and
Heather Stenmark adapted to
the· extra. pressure and landed'
4th and 5th place in their respective singles flights.
.
In doubles competition, senior
Shelly Locher and junior transfer Jolene Mayers paired up to
grab 5th place in their flight as
did the freshman duo of Thorsen
and Colleen Casey.
"Luther College continues to
be a participant in NCAA
Division III," Page said, "but we
did well against LaCrosse when
we went head to head with
them."
The Pointers will serve and
volley against a newly formed
team from the Milwaukee
School of Engineering this
Saturday in Stevens Point. The
matches begin at noon at the
Allen Center courts.
"Since MSE is new to the tennis program this year, it should
be interesting to see what level
of competition they will give
us," Page said.
The Pointer football team
grabbed a share of the conference lead with a 31-6 win
over UW-Whitewater in the 7th
Annual Spud Bowl Saturday
night at Goerke Field.
"It sort of sends a message to
the other teams around the
WSUC that we're for real," said
sixth-year head coach John
Miech.
The message couldn't have
been sent quicker on Western
Union.
After winning the coin toss,
the Pointers (2-1 overall) took
all of 12 seconds to get on the
board as wide receiver Tim Ott
took the opening kickoff 94
yards for a touchdown.
Ott's s·c amper was good
enough to keep the Pointers
afloat through some early bad
luck.
Todd Passsini missed a short
field goal, running back Jimmy
Henderson had a rare pass picked off, and the offense was
stalled into trading punts with
the Warhawks (1-2 on the
season) for the rest of the first
quarter.
In a game billed as a defensive
ground battle, Whitewater battled while the Pointers
defended.
The UWSP defensive unit, led
by linebacker Pete Deates and
strong safety Randy Simpson,
forced 11 Whitewater punts and
more rushed plays than an impromptu theatre troupe.
"I think the defense did a great
job keeping Whitewater out of
the game," said Miech with a
grin. "We're pretty solid across
the bOard."
Simpson combined with
Deates for 25 tackles on the
night and pulled down a key interception on the Pointer 5-yard
line with just over four minutes
to play in the third quarter.
The Pointer offense broke out
of their rut in the second quarter.
UWSP avoided choking on a
second missed field goal early in
the quarter after a timely
Whitewater offsides penalty
gave the Pointers first down 12
yards from the goal line.
After running back Jimmy
Henderson got stuffed from a
yard out, quarterback Roger
Hauri sneaked in to put the
Pointers ahead for good 14-0
with Passini's extra point.
Whitewater retaliated for their
only score of the game, a sevenyard touchdown pass from
junior quarterback Bryan Pytlenski.
Playing in his last Spud Bowl,
Hauri connected on 12 of 19
passes for 131 yards and a
touchdown, his fifth of . the
season.
"It's a new offensive system,"
said Hauri. "Basically it utilizes
everybody. · We knew they
would be keying in on Jimmy
(Henderson). We figured we
could take ~dvantage of their ,
defensive backs."
A Warhawk defense that held
the Pointers to 13 points last
year couldn't lock up Henderson, who bettered his 202-yard
performance of a week ago with
224 ground yards and 15 from
the air.
The butter on the potato was a
65-yard bolt with five minutes
left in the first half for the
Pointers' third touchdown.
That run Henderson had for
the touchdown was all Jimmy,"
said Miech. "He broke four or
five tackles!"
Saturday's burst pushed
Henderson over the career
2,000-yard rushing mark and
into second place on th~ all-time
UWSP list. It was the third 200yard day in Henderson's career
and his second of the young
season.
The Pointers have bye this
week before hitting the road to
face 1992 WSUC champion LaCrosse on Oct. 2.
Pointer football trivia quick-fix
The Pointers have never lost
a Spud Bowl. The closest margin of victory was in 1990when
the Pointers squeaked by OWPlatteville 11-9.
Jimmy Henderson's 224
rushing yards in this year's Spud
Bowl gave him 608 on the
season and put him well ahead
of pace to obliterate Norbert
Miller's UWSP single-season
rushing record of 1158 yards.
With a little help from underclassmen Nathan Harms and
Jody Damitz, the Pointer offensive back crew could break the
Pointer single-season team
rushing record of 2,139 yards
which has stood since 1955.
Sixth-year head coach John
Miech needs three more wins to
take sole position of second
place on the UWSP all-time
coaching roster. Miech has.the
highest winning percen_tage
among Pointer football coaches
with 50 or more decisions.

CNR hosts Pulpcut '93
By Anne Harrison
Contributor
[
Armed with chainsaws and
work gloves, Natural Resources
students headed to the Stevens
Point Water Department's pine
plantation for Pulpcut '93.
Pulpcut is a one-credit course
offered in the CNR which
equips students with a
knowledge of chainsaw maintenance and safety.
Last Saturday was the beginning of the pulpcut season. Cutting weekends extend into
mid-November.
_
- According- to Dr. John
~oughton, forestry professor!._
...
the class is "intended for people
who have no chainsaw experience."
He states that most participants
walk away from the course
"feeling comfortable with handling chainsaws."
Participants must attend a brief
safety lecture, as well as two
cutting days of their choice at
the plantation.
Pulpcut students learn the
basics o[_felling and delimbing
trees from Houghton and his
team of trained supervisors.
Proper chainsaw safety is reinforced throughout the day:
every saw operator must wear
chainsaw chaps and a hard hat.
In fall calm
According to Angie Berth and
Wenda Dreikosen, freshmen
participants, the eight hour cutting day goes by quickly.
At the plantation, students
divide into groups and cut down
previously marked red pines.
While one person cuts, the
others clear branches and maintain a safety buffer.
"It was fun learning how to use
a chainsaw and meeting people
in my own major," said Chris
Schmidt, a freshman who at.tended pulpcut this weekend.
The student chapter of the
Society of American Foresters
provides equipment and ex:
perienced supervisors for the
pulpcut course.
Camping ·mini -course offered
Recreational Services has announced a Fall Camping minicourse to be held Thursday,
September 30 at 7 p.m. in the
University Center room
125/125a.
The one hour program will cost
$2 with UWSP ID, $4 without.
Rec Services Staff will
demonstrate how to use various

-;The-coUrse Is at'm
experienced camper who has
done little if any previous camp-
the m-
ing," said Jim Barrett, Operations/Promotions Coordinator
of Rec Services.
The course will cover what
equipment to bring, how to use
it and where to go.
Staff will relate personal experiences and help camping
newcomers learn everything
from how to pack a backpack
through cooking on a excursion.
"We plan on touching on a wide
range of camping styles--from
car camping to tenting, on up to
wilderness backpacking," Barrett stated.
Everyone is invited to attend.
Many campus organizations
who have upcoming trips will
fmd this informative course extremely helpful.
Rec Services can cater to
camping enthusiasts as it rents
backpacks. sleeping bags and
pads, cook stoves, lanterns and
a wide variety of other camping
gear.

Goose migration patterns
given explainations
· By Jennifer Paust
Outdoors Editor
Changing colors and cooler
temperatures are a prelude to
southward migrations.
Fall migration of Canadian
geese offers any nature buff a
There are many types of geese
that migrate to the southern U.S.
or Mexico.
Snow geese, white-fronted
geese and barnacle geese are
just a few. In North America,
Canadian geese are the most
widespread species.
Distinctive features set them
from.other
)
They have a black h-ead and
neck that contrasts with their
pale breast. A white chin strap
runs up both side~ of its head.
Canadian geese travel in large
flocks in a wedge formation.
They use near constant honking ·
as a communications link
during flight.
Geese change formation as
they fly, with a different bird
moving to the lead position
every few minutes.
Geese learned the drafting
theory long before race car
drivers.
The lead bird breaks the wind,
thus working the hardest. Those
geese farther back fly in the air
flow or vacuum formed by birds
up front.
Geese also use a v-shaped pat: tern to help keep each other in
sight. Their eyes are set on the
sides of their heads and can't
rotate--they can't see forward.
Canadian geese are known to
fly at 80 miles per hour.
This speed actually takes little
effort once momentum is
achieved. A gentle twist of their
wing tips on the downward
stroke propels them forward.
Geese often migrate thousands
of miles, staying aloft for hours
at a time.

"Look for a stand of oaks, possibly mixed with sugar maples,
and little to no under cover and
you'll find squirrels," advises
Koball.
Bow season also opened last
weekend and started somewhat
better than small game.
This was in spite of the fact that
many sJudents decided not -to
bow hunt this year because of
rising huntin costs.
Gary's brother Brian, a UWSP
senior, commented·on how slow
the check-in station was.
After Saturday, things got even
slower. "Sunday the deer were
not moving due to the wind. No
one in our party saw a deer on
Sunday," said Koball. ·
As of early this week, the DNR
did not have any conclusive totals from the weekend.

Other bird species may even fly
several days without stopping.
The Blackpoll Warbler, a bird
no larger than a sparrow' flies almost 2500 miles nonstop.
My chin dropped and my
hesitant, bewildered feet shuffled towards my house. I
glanced at niy hands. They
were covered with rusty orange
powder.
As I smiled to myself, I expected my mother to call to me
to come home. It had indeed
been too long since I'd noticed
what really mattered.
The majority of migrating
birds fly at altitudes of 30006000 ft. Canadian geese have
been detected by radar as high
as 29,000 ft.
Migration has puzzled scientists for years. How do geese
and other birds find their way to
the same place every year?

Birds migrating during the day
follow landmarks--river valleys
and mountain ranges. ,
"This will save a lot of time and
a great deal of anxiety," said
Gahnz. Hopefully, the computerized testing will be available next semester.
Scientists now know there are
four migratory routes--the
Pacific Flyway (following the
West coast), the Central Flyway
(following the Rocky Mountains), the Mississippi Flyway
(following the Mississippi
River), and the Atlantic Flyway
(following the East Coast).
"It gets to the point where you
just can't make them look good
anymore," he said.

"The sooner you get help for
yourself, the more quickly
problems can be resolved," said
Gahnz.
Those birds migrating at night
seem to navigate by the stars.
This means they must have specialized sense organs.
The Center invites you to take
advantage of the services and
resources available.
Currently, no one is sure what
they are or how they function.
These unanswered questions

"With enrollment management, we found we could save
about $130,000 by closing a
hall," said Alexander.
Other recent improvements in
the halls include carpet and a
professional paint job for each
room.
"This gave us a good opportunity to renovate and moved
that project up a year."

Future construction plans inchide renovating Knutzen and
Thomson Halls next summer
and eventually converting
Roach Hall to an upperclassmen
hall, with suites instead ·of individual rooms.
Rates for rooms in the halls
will likely continue to increase
until the renovation is complete,
said Alexander.
"The rates are still fairly
reasonable, and the renovation
was needed," he said.
The Residence Hall Association has been involved in planning the renovation, including
everything from reviewing the
budget to choosing the color of
the carpets.
