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-

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.

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).

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

"That fee is going up much

he is working on a plan to bring
that increase down to a more

Program awakens students to diversity
by Lisa Herman
Features Editor
"Diversity is a reality now in
Stevens P9int. 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.

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

They also check the registration forms for accuracy and assist nurses if a donator is having problems donating blood.

A survey to assess students'
needs is forthcoming.
According to Susan Malnory,
Assistant Director of University
Housing for Business Operations, "University Housing is

$215,000 would be allocated
from reserve funds in University

Congress will soon consider a constitutional amendment to
require the federal government to stop running deficits.
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?

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.

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.

City watches slippery sidewalks
tractors are sent out to remove
the snow and ice."
by Julie Block
contributor
Sidewalks in Stevens Point
must be clear within 24 hours
after each snowfall, according to
a city ordinance, and off-campus students are not exempt
from receiving fines for failing
to shovel or salt their walks.
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.

are subject to variation, based on
student responses to the questionnaire.

A change by the force of our will
by Lee Allen
Contributor
"Shaping a Healthier Culture through the Force of our
Will" is the theme of a series of
programs that will be presented
in conjunclion with National
Health and Wellness Week,
March 7-11.
"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."
Information about specific
programs, dates, times and
places may be obtained by calling the University Activities
Board at 345-4343, or by consulting the Center Events bulletin board in the University·
Center.
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

Although most shows are
not too expensive, musicals can
run up to $400, while studio

The show was estimated at
about 1000 hours of construction. This is not uncommon for
most productions.
"Work on the set is usually 4

Technical Designer, Giuy

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. All of
these elements describe creating
the set for "Idiot's Delight."
Constructing scenery for productions is extremely time consuming and full ofexertion from
everyone involved in the composition process.
"Idiot's Delight" rare design
consists of an abundant amount
of materials. Some of these substances used on the set are unexpected.
For example, a dog dish transformed into an ashtray or a very
realistic baby grand piano made
only of wood.
Besides the occasional props
that are altered and used in
non-traditional ways is the form

They are the Smokers.
Most of them started smoking when smoking was "cool",

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

Eagle Walkers prepare for Spring Break
by Jason Rabuck
Contributor
It's that time again. 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-

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

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

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.

dead wood bas on determining
habitat selection may be easier
to document at that time."
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.

Track teams roc-k et
over Oshkosh hurdles
by A.J. Hawley
Typesetter
Correction: Last week's track
and field headline stated that
the team competed in theirfinal
indoor meet last Saturday. It
was their final home indoor
meet. 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.
For the women's track and
field team it was a day of trial
and error. "And for the most
part there were some pleasant

Hockey falls to Bemidji,
waits for national in.v ite
by Lincoln Brunner
Sports Editor
Champions carry more than
the burden of greatness with
them. 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.
To make up for a disputed
goal early goal by the Beavers,
the Pointers grabbed a little
home-ice luck with two goals

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.

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

We're not playing for the NCHA
title. That's gone. Who cares?"
"I think too many people are

whole thing, and there's no reason to."
If the national polls are any

have little to no reason for any

The Pointers are currently

For instance, the set for
"Idiot's Delight" is lavender and
has silver molding.
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
