March 3, 1994 VOLUl\IE 37 NO. 20 Student fees set for '94-'95 by Collin Lueck News Editor UWSP student fees will increase at approximately the same rate as inflation for the 1994-95· school year, according to the fee schedule presented by Chancellor Keith Sanders to the Chancellor's Cabinet Monday. "Wages and the ability to pay go up at the rate of inflation," said Sanders. "We are determined to keep the costs to our students which we control going up no faster than the rate of inflation." Our nation's current yearly rate of inflation is between 3.5 and four percent. The chancellor's fee schedule would hold the overall student fee increase at 3 .5 percent. The price oftuition is not included in this figure because it is set by the state legislature. A brief breakdown of the plan shows that on campus students will see a 3.6 percent increase in the room and board package. The Food Service rate will hold steady at $1280 while the rates for both single and double rooms will increase by 6.5 percent, a moderate amount in light ofcurrent resident hall construetion costs and in relation to rate increases in recent years. According to the fee sched- "I believe that the our s .t udents voted -------...----------~-------~----- · $12 per year to $11.2Q. ule, a single room will cost $2588 next year and a double will cost $1726. The total segregated fee package will cost each student $18.10 more next year. Of the seven fees in that package, four will increase, two will decrease and one, Student Activities, will stay the same. Student Activities has only gone up $9.60 in the last ten years. The biggest jump in next years fees will be the $138.50 yearly fee for Health Services, an $11 increase over this year. SGA President David Kunze said the increase was necessary to ensure that a female Debot display repulses residents by Heather Enneper contributor In response to student complaints, the University Centers' Policy Board voted Tuesday to have the sexually trapsmitted disease display in the lower level of Debot taken down. The display will be reappearing only during the first four weeks of each semester from now on. The residence hall general assembly was informed about the student concern three weeks ago, and now the controversy is being raised campus-wide. "A lot of people disapprove of the display, even if it is educational," explained Junko Hensley, president of the Residence Hall Association (RHA).

Also, the price of medical supplies and pharmaceuticals is increasing faster than the rate of inflation. Nominal increases will be pictions and illustrations of real SID cases. The most graphic illustrations are covered with shutters so students can use their own discretion in viewing the effects of SID's. "Because the uncovered pictures are still quite graphic,' Hensley argued, "students are repulsed by the board as they walk past it heading for lunch." The display was placed in Debot so all students would have the opportunity to view it, but Hensley indicated that not all of the campus is targeted only the residence halls. "The bottom line," Hensley predicted, "is that the display will need to be more tactful, or be removed." The University Centers' Policy Board made the decision to put the display in Debot in October of 1992. seen in Text Rental ($i.40 more per year) and University Center ($3.60 more per year) fees.

Diversity isn't visiting from Milwaukee or Chicago - it is here," said John Holmes, recruitment and retention director for Cultural Diversity at UWSP. Holmes was one of the speakers for Racial and Ethnic Day which was held Monday in the Laird Room of the UC. · The purpose of Racial and Ethnic day is to "reduce subtle racial tensions among students and promote cultural awareness" on campus. John Mohawk, a Native American activist and assistant professor at the State University ofNew York at Buffalo was the featured guest speaker for the event. Mohawk spoke twice during the day about racial and ethnic tensions on college campuses. To reduce tensions he advised that college administrations have to have a commitment of justice and they must not be tolerant of acts of racial bigotry. In addition, he said the base of information people have access to needs to be expanded and the kind of information must be distinguished between ideological constructions and fact patterns. An ideological construction is imagining what something means without defining it. For example, Mohawk mentioned the melting pot theory. "Everyone becomes Americanized as if the idea of being "American" means one thing." A fact pattern is objective and it and it can not be questioned. Mohawk used the example, "We live in a world of enormous diversity. There are 3500 nations total and 168 of them are represented in the United Nations." "The university is not doing its job by not letting students know the ideological constructions of racial stereotypes," said Mohawk. "Universities need to generate courses to access information about class, race and gender." Mohawk added a class on diversity doesn't always change people; however, it does give the impression that the university has an agenda on these issues and at some point students will process information. Mohawk stressed throughout both speeches that diversity is a strength, not a fragmenting weakness. Other speakers and performers throughout the day covered a variety of racial and ethnic issues. Beverly David from the foreign language faculty started the day off by sharing some of her experiences ofliving in different places· like South America. According to Edward Miller from the political science faculty, it is the nature of religion, even following the holocaust, there is still discrimination of Jews in the present. Poetry and literary passages were read by five members of the 10% Society followed by a Latino dance lesson of the Merengue sponsored by SALSA.

UWSP will be hosting its annual spring semester blood drive on March 8 from 11a.m. -5p.m.; :March9,9am-3p.m;and March 10 from 9a.m.-3p.m. in the UC Laird room. The "B1ooddrive" is being organized by students. UWSP is SGA Update SGA will be conducting a voter registration drive for the April 5th election. The registration will take place in the UC and Debo( March 7-11. Registration will also take place during limited hours in several of the academic buildings March 1417. In order to register you must bring two forms of picture identification and two utility bills with your name and address on them. If utility o o o bills are unavailable SGA will also accept another form of official mail. The Assembly Bi11259 Rally for the 21 year old drinking age will be held on March 15th in Madison. Everyone is urged to get involved and attend. SGA will be holding campus elections March 1517. Don't forget to vote. This is your chance to select the students who will be representing you. the only campus where the students coordinate the whole event. According to Associate Director of the UC, Jerry Lineberger, the Red Cross is very pleased with the work UWSP students have done in the past. "UWSP tends to do better than most of the other UW campuses. The Red Cross finds that to be iriteresting. We are the only UW where the students coordinate the whole "Biooddrive". The Red Cross says we are the best," said Lineberger. LinebergersaysthatUWSP has been participating in the blooddrive for over 20 years. There are two blood drives every year. One during the fall semester and one during the spring semester. Only two percent of the population donates blood. Lineberger feels that it is something people can do for the community. "There is no artificial substance for blood," he added. The student coordinators stress that giving blood is a very safe process. "Our main goal is just to get the word out and emphasize that there is absolutely no risk See Diversity page 12 John Mohawk speaks to an audience Monday night about the need to appreciate diversity in our photo by Chris Kelley university and in our world Red Cross out for blood by Stephanie Sprangers Suet Leng Chen from Singapore strummed a san xuan, a Chinese string instrument, and even though she said she was nervous the audience enjoyed her music. Mary Cayford, advocacy coordinator from Cap Services spoke about the history of the Hmong culture. She also in donating blood,"said Vicki Strebel, head director of the blood drive. According to a nurse at the Red Cross regional office in Madison, there is absolutely no risk of getting the HIV virus or any other communicable diseases. All of their needles and bags are sterile and only used once. Generally, anyone who is in good health is eligible to donate blood. You must weigh at least 110 lbs. and be 17 or older. If students are unable to donate due to certain circumstances, there are other ways to get involved. "Students who cannot donate blood can still help by getting the word out," said Lineberger. "We also need help during the drive," added Strebel. The coordinators are looking for donor room aides. These people prevent bad experiences and provide a cheerful atmosphere for donors. They also check the registration forms for accuracy and assist nurses if a donator is having problems donating blood. See Blood page 5 Housing considers residence hall computer labs by Christina Updike contributor University Housing is currently generating a proposal to install computer labs in the basement of each resident hall. A survey to assess students' needs is forthcoming. According to Susan Malnory, Assistant Director of University Housing for Business Operations, "University Housing is presently researching the idea.. .residents will be surveyed sometime this week to determine interest levels in this plan." $215,000 would be allocated from reserve funds in University . Housing's budget to pay for the project. "The installation of these labs will not affect the (students') room rate, as we would be funding it from cash reserves of the operation." said Malnory.

While the proposed amendment seems like a good idea, it would actually do more harm than good. What would a balanced budget amendment mean? Starting in about six years, Congress and the President would be required to ensure that federal "outlays" do not exceed the federal "receipts." This means that any time during the fiscal year if it appears that the federal government is going to run a deficit, action must be taken to balance the federal budget. The only time this rule could be suspended is during time of war or military conflict. The amendment could also be suspended if 60% in both the House and the Senate vote to run a deficit and raise the debt limit--a political nightmare for any politician. However, this amendment does not tell Congress how to balance the budget. How will this be done? Will it be done by raising taxes or cutting vital programs like Social Security? How will we be able to afford better law enforcement? Where will we get the money to enforce regulations that protect U.S. workers, the disabled and the environment? How will we meet basic needs of vulnerable Americans? ~E FO/...UJWING S£./'t1£ST£R TH~ FCUOW/NG YeAR .~ gove~rnm::e:nt~s~h:o:u:ld~b~e:--fiiiiiiiiiiiiiJ Some people ask why the federal permitted to run a deficit if state government have to balance their budgets. The truth is, most states don't balance their budgets. Many states balance their operating budgets but have a separate account for capital items. This allows states to pay for road maintenance, construction, city improvement, and even education. The proposed amendment would seriously damage a strong economy by removing as much as $225 billion in one year when the amendment takes effect (based on Congressional Budget Office estimates). -Gary Bass No proponent ofthe balanced budget amendment has shown exactly how this could be done. As citizens, we have a right to know before Congress takes us on a path to economic disaster. A balanced budget amendment could wreak havoc on the U.S. economy. The proposed amendment would seriously damage a strong economy by removing as much as $225 billion in one year when the amendment takes effect (based on Congressional Budget Office estimates). And if our country is in a recession or in a slow recovery, things will be even worse. During an economic downturn, the federal government would be forced to cut spending or raise taxes--making a recession last longer or changing it into a depression. Furthermore, a balanced budget amendment would make it almost impossible to respond to natural disaster effectively. When there are earthquakes-in California or there is flooding in the Midwest, people need aid immediately to start rebuilding their communities. With the proposed amendment, valuable time would be wasted on finding ways to offset the necessary spending of voting to run a deficit--if either could be accomplished. Credit is one of the most important parts of our everyday lives. Without the ability to borrow money, most people would be unable to purchase a house, go to college, or even eat out. Debt financing is what allows us to make vital purchases now with money that we expect to earn over time. In the same way, the federal government borrows now to invest in programs that pay off in long-term benefits. Without government spending on education, childhood immunizations, Medicare and Medicaid, environmental protection and worker safety programs, we pay more in the longrun. There are responsible ways to reduce the deficit. The $500 billion deficit reduction package passed last summer shows that we are making progress in the fight against increasing d~ficits. Meaningful health care reform which brings down costs is the next step in bringing the deficit under control. Enacting the balanced budget amendment would be just another form of shadowboxing- never laying a real punch on the deficit, yet allowing elected officials to say they did. We must reject simplistic and draconian measures that pretend to solve our very serious fiscal problems while really leaving us worse off. MILLER'S POINT OF VIEW THIS DROGr IS ABANP·A\1> SOl\JTION.

HAOQI 3, 1994 DACE 4 University contributes to students' junk mail by selling names and addresses Dear Editor; Have you been receiving a surplus of junk mail recently? Ever wonder how the credit card companies just happened to know that you're a student? A talk I had on Feb. 21 with Associate Registrar Larry Sipiorski was very enlightening and disturbing. Mr. Sipiorski indicated that certain information is considered "public information." }>age 11 b of the Timetable outlines exactly what types of information can be released without specific written permission. I suggest you check it out. ·You should also know it is possible to restrict access to this information. All you need to do is complete a "Request to Withhold Directory Information" form. However, according to Mr. Sipiorski, due to the limitations of the computer system used by the university, restricting access is an all or nothing proposition. If you decide to restrict access, no one can get any information for any reason, even if it's an emergency. Okay, so let's assume you decide you're better off keeping your records accessible. Does that mean you have to put up with junk mail? Currently, the answer is "yes." By selling your name and address for a minimal cost (a $60.00 processing fee and $.01 per label), the university practically guarantees you will continue to receive junk mail long into the future. Last semester the registration and records office supplied such lists to six different companies. Lists have already been sold twice this semester. Who knows how many times these businesses have resold the list. According to Mr. Sipiorski, the university isn't really selling your name and address. They are just covering the cost ·or. Miller's welfare theories illogical and ill-founded Dear Editor; I agree with Dr. Miller's statement in last week's Pointer that it is time to institote tough, possibly unpopular policies regarding welfare; but putting an end to the welfare system is akin to throwing the baby out with the bath water. I would like to point out that many of those families who use government assistance are hard-working people, often only needing a helping hand while they get back on their financial feet. Are we to presume that these families with "no exception, no appeals" should · be denied the possibility of a family via "certified, proven contraception or surgical sterilization?" Dr. Miller also states that welfare programs are the "root cause of alcohoVdrug abuse and crime." Later he says "people are being driven into homelessness, poverty and despair by a regressive taxation system; as aresuit, they turn to drugs and crime". Now, which is it? Welfare programs or the regressive taxation system that resuits in drug/alcohol abuse and crime? And what about that jump from weifare reform to property tax relief? Did I miss the segue? Am I to believe those so-called "Weifare Parasites" are responsible for Dr. Miller's financial woes? What ever happened to the good old days when people blamed the school systern for higher property taxes? And finally, what of that rural convenience store owner who boasted he "takes in $12,000 dollars in profit each month by cashing food stamps for 50 cents on the dollar? I may agree with Dr. Miller that something should be done about welfare, but his notion of eliminating it as a means to ending drug and alcohol abuse, crime and pro"perty taxes is not only illogical and ill-founded, it's just plain silly. of providing such public information. I suggest students ban together and insist the university stop this breach of confidentiality. Why not give Mr. Sipiorski a call! His phone numbers are public information. They are in the campus directory! Be considerate. Don't call during the dinner hour (like most businesses do.) Ifyou get him on the line, you may want to suggest that the next time he receives a request for students' names and addresses, he takes a different course of action. He can hand over, or even sell, the interested party a campus directory. The credit card companies, pizza parlors and other businesses will have their public information. However, the increased cost incurred by having to data enter the names and addresses may cause the compani~ toreconsider their marketing techniques. If someone has to be inconveru(mced, it should be the businesses, not the students of UWSP. A,fter all, registration and records is housed in the "Student Services" building, not the "Public Relations" building. Ginny Carlton LeeM.

This city ordinance began over ten years ago and can be quite costly for those who choose not to keep their walks free of snow and ice. According to John Gardner of the Inspection Development Committee, "walks are inspected after each snowfall. If the walks are not cleared and - complaints are received, con- The work is charged by the foot, and administration fees are added on as well. The bills are sent to home owners and then billed to tenants. Gardner stressed that the purpose of the ordinance is not to take money from citizens. Instead, the purpose is to abide by insurance company regulations and to provide safe walking condition for all pedestrians. At times, sidewalks are the only way the elderly can get where they need to go. These citizens actually become frightened for their lives when the sidewalks are not clear. The city issued 58 citations in the month of January, and most were the result of complaints. Computers continuedfrom page 2 IBM 486s and two laser IV printers per hall.

"The basic premise of the week is that through personal commitment and the accumulation of knowledge,_we can make health changes through the force of our will," said a spokesperson for the event. A different theme is scheduled for each of the five days, beginning with Monday's Mind-altering Substances. Learn everything you ever wanted to know about alcohol and drug abuse but were afraid to ask. Tuesday is Nutrition and Physical Health Day, when you can learn about eating right, stress management, the perils of smoking and related topics. Relationships Day is Wednesday. Learn about sexually transmitted diseases, codependency, sexual assault and find out if men and women can just be friends. Our Body, Ourselves is the theme for Thursday. Learn about self image, find out what kind of body type you have, and learn how advertising contributes to addiction. Friday is Environmental Health Day, when you can hear what UWSP has done, what they have been doing, and what they should be doing, and learn how you can positively impact our earth's environment. "Through 'Shaping a Healthier Culture through the Force of our Will' we are hoping to impact individual students," said John Jury, Director of the Student Activities Board. "This in turn we hope will impact the culture of the campus." Ultimately, he said, "We are looking to develop a healthier campus."

Play delights audiences by Kerry Liethen Theatre Critic "Idiot's Delight"-- a production that begins with a laugh and ends with a bang! This quick witted comedy is supported by a wonderful cast. Matthew Centner (Harry Van) creates a jaunty character that is full of exertion and as slick as ice in the dead of winter. Center's opposite is portrayed by Heidi S. Dippold (Irene). Dippold produces a mysterious Russian madam full · of sex appeal and elegance. The relationship that builds between Dippold and Centner is enticing. Although the cast did a fine job, a few of the foreign accents needed some more work on . their enunciations prior to opening weekend. Also, maybe certain members of the cast should have done some tongue twisters before going on stage, because many lines were tripped over numerous times.

"Idiot's Delight" production was budgeted at $2700, because of the size of the set and also very little of the lumber was taken form the department's stock. Although most shows are not too expensive, musicals can run up to $400, while studio shows run about $100 to $150. The show was estimated at about 1000 hours of construction. This is not uncommon for most productions. "Work on the set is usually 4 to 6 weeks before the show opens, but It depends on the semester." ,said Lighting and Technical Designer, Giuy Olsen. The decision for color, props or lighting relies on the time period for that era. Behind the scenes... · The buzz of a table saw, banging of a hammer against a nail, and the hum of a drill shooting through wood.

Most of them started smoking when smoking was "cool", and can remember when a designated smoking area was any place outside ten feet from a gas .pump. But no longer. Over the last several years smoking has been banned from virtually every academic building and center on campus save for the University Center, where even there it is relegated to a shrinking number of areas. "Pretty soon the only place you'll be able to smoke is in your own home or in your car," said Ginger Kyritsis, the Chancellor's Representative for the University Center's policy board.

When icicles slide off rooftops and the sun bestows its first warm rays, the Walkers gather. Saturday morning, approximately 30 Eagle Walkers will begin a two-day practice walk to prepare for the thirteenth annual Eagle Walk. Held over Spring Break, the Eagle Walk is a nine-day, 200 mile fund-raising hike. Efforts raise money for land preservation, endangered species protection and environmental awaren~ss in general. Each of two 50 mile practice walks are set up to mock actual conditions found on the Eagle Walk. This weekend will give participants a taste of Wisconsin's finicky spring weather while conditioning their bodies, minds and feet. "The point is to get used to canying a .backpack,"said Jennifer Paust, former Walk coordinator, "You get in your boots with all your gear and literally practice walking." Paust went on to explain what walkers will find on their way to Central Wisconsin Environmental Station on Saturday. "It is the most realistic way to see where your feet will give you problems. Other than walking 20 miles a day, nothing can get you in shape for thi s. " Paust explained how each of her four Eagle Walks have , been progressively easier, "My first year I had 22 blisters and lost five toenails." Despite the pain inflicted on walkers, many fmd solace in the intangible benefits. Paust explained how no classroom can give you the knowledge and strength found on the Walk. "The fund-raising part of t.his is great, but I've kept coming back because of the friends, the emotions and my personal sense of accomplishment." Each day of the nine day Eagle Walk ranges from 26 to 13 miles. At a pace of approxi- Jon Houtman, 1993 Eagle Walker, gets himself ready for the nine-day, 200 mile jundraiser. photo by Chris Kelley mately three miles an hour, Walkers can expect to walk eight hours daily. Walkers carry a sleeping bag, mat and enough clothes to last the nine days. Food is provided in many places along the route. "Ladies aids, firemen and church groups cook for us," Paust said. Other meals are purchased in local cafes. Each walker raises a minimum of $200 in pledges. Donations are also collected from businesses and individuals · along the route. Funds collected are donated to the Wisconsin Chapter of The Nature Conservancy. "Last year we ended up raising around $6000," Paust said. That amount was doubled through a matched grant fund with the state of Wisconsin. "The Nature Conservancy received nearly $12,000 through the efforts of the Eagle Walk." A new feature to this year's Walk will be added by Shane Totten. Totten will be performing· a benefit concert on March 23 from 8 to 9 p.m. in the UC Encore. It is co-sponsored by UAB and the Environmental Council. For now, walkers can look forward to the open road and to uncovering what lies ahead. Small mammal habitat studied for fault January's record cold snap has made most of us grateful for the milder temperatures ofFebruary, and none more than John Wright, a graduate student at UWSP. Wright is concluding his third winter investigating habitat requirements of pine marten and fisher on the Nicolet National Forest in Northeast Wisconsin. The two native predators had been eliminated from Wisconsin in the early 1900's, primarily due to habitat destruction and unregulated trapping. Reintroduction efforts concentrated on the Nicolet and Chequamegon National Forests in the 1960's and 70's. Both species have been reestablished · in the state. Wright says, "The fisher have done remarkably well and ex: anded tL,ir range to all of northern Wisconsin. The marten, however, is only found locally around the release sites." · Wisconsin still lists the animal as endangered. "While the marten population is reproducing," Wright states, "it's un- known why it's been slow in expanding it's range. One possible explanation is critical microhabitat features, like down logs or standing dead trees, that the marten relies on, are missing from what looks to you and I like available habitat." This is where Wright's research comes in. Wright is radio-tracking the animals to develop a better unaerstanding of the importance of dead wood as a specific habitat feature for each species. "Dead wood consists of standing dead trees, downed logs, stumps and root tip-ups," says Wright. "This type of material is important to the animals because it provides denning and resting sites." The project is part of a larger predator interaction study involving the Great Lak;;s Indian Fish and Wildlife Commission. UWSP, the U.S. Forest Service North Central Experiment Station and UW -Madison. The larger project is trying to relate landscape characteristics to the regional distribution of fishers and martens. "My study should add a finer grain of detail to the larger, region-wide study," says Wright. Wright has been concentrating his tracking efforts during the winter months. When asked why, he explained, "since neither animal hibernates, winter is a potentially stressful time for them. The idea is, any influence the see Mammal page 12 0 MADCll 3, 1994- Dr\CE U Land preservation efforts examined ·· A choice to make a parking lot out of farmland or build a subdivision on undeveloped waterfront is made once and then is essentially irreversible. This concept is not new to land trust directors. Their goal is to protect land-even though they are not part of any arm of the government. How important are land trusts? Andrea Freeman, a CNR graduate student at UWSP, is an· swering that question. "Land trusts are private, nonprofit organizations that protect land for agricultural, ecological, educational, esthetic, cultural, historic, and recreational purposes," explained Freeman. They are actively protecting land in Wisconsin and all over the country. While their reasons for protecting land vary, there is one common thread-ecological concern. "The groups I have researched clearly recognize the connection that how we use the land effects such things as wa!er quality, biodiversity, and the overall quality oflife," said Freeman. "My early findings show that there is a variety of land trusts in Wisconsin-and about a 14 percent increase in the number of acres protected by them between 1990an 1993,"notedFreeman, stressing that these results are preliminary. The rate of increase in acres protected over that time period nationwide is over 30 percent. Freeman cautioned measuring land trust activity based only on the number ofacres protected. "The work and money it takes to protect 10 acres of waterfront property or 2 miles of narrow trail can easily compare to protecting 160 acres of interior woodland-the type of land makes a big difference. The most common method in Wisconsin is a fee-simple purchase, where a land trust actually buys the parcel. Less commonly used, but growing in popularity in Wisconsin, are conservation easements. An easement separates the development rights from a piece of property and perpetually travels with the land. BESEBVE For example, ifyou live on 160 acres and gave a conservation easement to a land trust, you could still live there. You could also still garden, hunt, cut wood-whatever you enjoy doing on your land. You can still keep trespassers off your property and you still have to pay property taxes. A conservation easement only prohibits land from being subdivided or developed-ever. "The work and money it takes to protect 10 acres of waterfront property or two miles of narrow trail can easily compare to protecting 160 acres of interior woodland -the type of land makes a big difference. " --Andrea Freeman Ifa conservation easement is donated, it may be possible for the land owner to receive a federal income tax deduction. Consider a 10 acre parcel assessed at $200,000. A conservation easement is recorded on this parcel that prohibits any new builings, causing the assessment of the land to decrease to orriCEBS' If you didn't sign up for ROTC as a freshman or sophomore, you can still catch up to your classmates by attending Army ROTC Camp Challenge, a paid six-week summer course in leadership training. $125,000becauseitcanneverbe developed. The difference, $75,000, is the value of the conservation easement-the amount of income tax deduction. Many land trusts work with or get assistance from the Nature Conservancy-a national organization that deals with land trusts. Some are likely to work with a public agency. Freeman points out that "Land trusts need to work efficiently to protect the natural resource base; and that usually means working together-whether it's with other land trust or the DNR." A process is already in place for symbiotic partnerships between land trusts and the DNR. Wisconsin is one of only 13 states that has an established government program. The Stewardship Program of 1990 is a 10-year, $250 million bond-funded program protecting environmentally sensitive lands, restoring wildlife habitat, protecting water quality, and providing outdoor recreational opportunities. Some of this money is awarded as matching grants to qualified land trusts for DNR approved land protection efforts.

To date, Wright has radiocollared and tracked 33 animals within the 20 square mile study area. The process involves capturing the animals in live traps. A bait placed in the trap attracts the animal inside, where the animal trips a treadle which triggers the door to close. "The animal is totally enclosed in the trap, so there are no injuries to it; and the trap is covered, which provides protection from the elements until we can check on it," describes Wright. The traps are checked daily. Captured animals are immobilized with a drug, measurements taken and radio collars are placed on select animals. The whole process takes about 45 minutes. Once radio collared, animals are relocated with a directional antenna from three locations. A compass is used to determine the antenna direction at each location. Wright says "the idea is that all the compass directions will cross at a single point on the map, giving an approximate location of the animal." Asked if he is going to miss the field work Wright replies, "it's a 50/50 proposition, I'm looking forward to some warmer temperatures, but I'll miss the daily contact with animals." "I still have a summer of coarse woody material measurements left then the real work begins, sitting in the office and analyzing three winters ofdata," he added.

The Pointer regrets the error. The UWSP men's track and field team continues to have a powerful year while the women's team has an experimental day at Kolf Sports Center 'in Oshkosh on Saturday. The men's team finished in second overall with no sign of anyone catching up to them. Craig Olson (600m), Joshua Tebo. (800m), Doug Engel (lOOOm), Jeremie Johnson (3000m) and Chris Richards (triple jump) each placed first in their event. Also boosting the Pointers were Craig Huelsman (400m), Marty Kirschner (600m) and Parker Hansen (200m hurdles), who each finished second in their events. The 1600m relay team also placed second, only two seconds behind UW-LaCrosse with a time of 3:21.05. Rick Witt, head coach of the men's team was satisfied with theirfinsih. "We were okay. Not spectacular," he stated. "There was a meet before the conference meet this weekend, so we were moving some people around a little bit and we rested a couple of people that were nicked up. We performed okay. Not great, but okay." The best performances this week camefromTebo, who qualified provisionally in the 800m for NCAA's. Chris Richards also performed better than par in the triple jump (46'2"). The men compete again this Friday and Saturday at the WSUC Conference meet in LaCrosse.

High expectations, memories of past victories and the groans of disappointed fans dog the path of any successful team. The Pointer hockey team has been one of those glittering success stories everyone wants to keep reading. Unfortunately, other teams have their hands on the pen, too. Head coach Joe Baldarotta's squad, winners of four national championships in five years, found out just whose hands those were this weekend as visiting Bemidji St. knocked the Pointers out of the NCHA playoffs with a 4-1 win Saturday after a 4-4 tie on Friday. Despite losing the chance to defend his National Collegiate Hockey Association title to an arch-rival, Baldarotta isn't upset - especially with a better than average chance of getting a national championship bid. "We ran into a hot goal tender and I'll give them credit they're a great hockey team," said Baldarotta. Bemidji denied the Pointers a sixth straight NCHA crown with more luck than overwhelming power. The Beavers managed only 32 shots on goal between the two games, not even close to the Pointer's 55. On Saturday, the puck eluded Bemidji'snetlikeafox. Down40 in the third period after 16 missed shots, the Dogs narrowly avoided a shutout with Gord Abric's goal off Chad Zowin at the7:26 mark. Loss aside, Baldarotta wasn't upset with his team's play. "The thing was, on Saturday, we didn't play a very good first period. The rest of the time, we were all over them. We were outgoal tended, and that cost us the game." . Beaver goalie Robin Cook had a glittering 24 saves in the win, Bemidji's third of the year against Point. Friday's game, which could have put Bemidji on the ropes, turned out to be a less-than-helpful tie for the Pointers-barely.

The women ranked seventh overall. One of the key performances this week was by Aimee Knitter, who ran out of her nonnal5000m and took third as a provisional qualifier in the 1500m(4:49.93). '• Becky Clark also performed well in the high jump (4' 7 112"), personal best and good enough for sixth place. The team hopes to continue their upward trend. Since the start of the season things have been coming together. "Things are going very well," said Hill. "It's been an interesting year for me and kind of fun but challenging at the same time. "We ~ve a lot of new people. This is by far the largest team we have ever had. We are taking 46 people to the conference meet. Two years ago I think we had23." The next meet for the women will be the WWIAC Indoor Championship at UW-Stout, Friday and Saturday March 4 and5. a little bit short for us." Though the win on Thursday was more than welcome, the Pointers had memories on their minds more than basketball. Fortunately, La Crosse (4-20, 2-13) offered little competition with a mild 24-of-61 from the floor. Despite it all, Parker's squad held out for their last home win of the season with a sparkling 25 of 51 shooting performance, not to mention 18 of26 from the line. Exiting seniors Dahlquist and Sennett each had nine points, while Boario led all scorers with 23. Even without a third conference crown, Parker wasn't shedding tears over the season. "I'm very pleased with the progress made by our younger kids," said Parker.. "Our freshman class proved to be a very fine recruiting class. ''The other thing that pleased me is that we stayed foc~sed even though we were out of the conference race." "Going down the stretch, stayed focused and played some good basketball." Beavers ferent outlook on everything. We're not playing for the NCHA title. That's gone. Who cares?" "I think too many people are crying gloom and doom over this whole thing, and there's no reason to." If the national polls are any indication, Baldarotta and Co. . have little to no reason for any gloom. The Pointers are currently second in the West rankings, right behind NCHA rival UWSuperior and one above uw~ River Falls. . The NCAA Division IIi championships invitations will be announced next Tuesday. Until then, the defending champs wait and hope. continuedfrom page 14 WJaere people • ~ · (from Abric and Zowin) in the last eight minutes to seal the lock. "On Friday night, we played a great game all-around," said Baldarotta. "We made two mistakes that cost us. They had a goal at the end of the first period that dido 't do us any good, but for the most part we played a · great game." In Baldy's mind, the past has no bearing on his team.

The decision · for this was based upon the fact that the hotel used to be a sanitarium and now has been remodeled to an art- deco look. The same goes for the costumes. To get the 1930's style, costume designer Jessica Hahn needed to find clothing from that period. Occasionally the costumes need to be altered to sizes depending upon the actor/ actress sizing. Military uniforms, spats and show girl outfits needed to be drawn, then made or located. This entails extra sewing or placing buttons and snaps when necessary. All in all, stage productions do not mean just acting, but also costumes, scenery and lighting. These elements require a great amount of work and energy to benefit a production. If these technical designers were not present then it would basically be impossible to produce a play worthy of attention. If there are any volunteers ~ wishing to participate on scenery, contact the Theater and Dance Department in the Fine Arts building. The Pointer receives ''Best of the Midwest" regional award Last weekend 12 members of The Pointer travelled to Minneapolis, Minn, for the "Best of the Midwest" regional college newspaper conference and they returned to UWSP with their first award in at least three years. · · The Pointer · received third place in the Best of Show for page one design category. The page was judged on overall eontent and design. A total of 300 people from 45 different four and two-year colleges in 10 states participated in the conference. General workshops were held for editors and reporters and specialty sessions were held for graphics, photography, business and advertising. "It's a great accomplishment winning an award at this conference," stated Pamela Kersten, Editor in Chief of The Pointer "It shows us that we're competitive with other papers not only in Wisconsin, but around the region. It's something the whole school can be proud of," she continued. Sponsored by the Associated Collegiate Press, the conference takes place in Minneapolis yearly.
