. VOLUME. 37 NO. 29 MAY 12,1994 Parking expansion ·erodes neighborhood by .Chris Kelley Photo Editor More on-campus parking will . . . be available next year. But as the university gains parking space, surrounding neighborhoods are whittled away. Two houses in the 2000 block of Portage Court will be removed this summer for the expansion of lots Y and B across from the University Center. The project will connect those lots with lot R along Portage Street,, across from the ·sundial, and eventually extend the length . of the block. "Th~t area has been targeted since the mid-'70's," said Cad Rasmussen, facilities planner. "As houses become available, we'll negotiate with the owners to acquire the property." The Board of Regents paid $42,000 in 1992 for the house at 2019 Portage Ct and $47,250 last January for the house next door at 2027 Portage Ct. Those houses will either be moved or destroyed. The university al§O bought a house six doors down, at 1909 Portage Ct., in January. All three are rental units. The other six.homes in that area are occupied by their owners. "I don't like seeing homes come off the tax role covered with blacktop," said Third Ward Alderman Terry Anderson. The university has plans to develop more surface parking in the residential area just north of the fire station. "I'd much rather see a ramp," said Anderson. "We talked about metering some of the streets in the area where parking is now free and donating·some of that money to the university for a ramp." see Parking page 5 photo by UWSP junior, Scott Onson, checks out Tuessday's partial eclipse through a pair of# 14 welding glasses.

"You know a dream is like a .river, ever changin' as it flows. An,d a dreamer's just a vessel that mustfollow where it goes. Trying to learnfrom what's behindyou, and never knowing what's in store, makes each day a constant battle, just to stay between the shores. " -Garth Brooks, The River The end of the year has come again. Everyone is getting ready for summer. Some of you are off to finally live your lives, d~gree in hand. Others, we're taking time off and will be back next year. Needless to say, the year has gone by and everyone has had some good times. I've learned a lot this year. I learned that running a student newspaper is not the easiest thing in the world to do, but rewarding, none the less. I also learned that if you don't "learn from what's behind you," you never really get anywhere. My little sister is the one who wrote the words of the song, The River, out for me. She sent them to me last summer while I was working in Colorado. A 13-year-old can reall have a lot of insight She pointed out to me that you do need to try; only th~n can you really succeed The chorus of the song goes like this, "I will sail my vessel, 'til the river nms dry. Like a bird upon the wind, these waters are my sky. I 'II never . reach my destination, ifI never try. So I will sail my ves, set, 'til the river nms dry " A 13-year-old really can have a lot of insight. She pointed out to me that ·you do need to try; only then can you really succeed. Without a dream or a focus, however, you never have anywhere to go.1 You just float down the river. I listen to this song a lot. It has helped to keep me focused more'times than I can remember. For those of you who are graduating, I hope you follow your dreams and never give up. Taking chances can lead to your most wonderful experiences; I've learned that recently, too. I hope everyone can look back at this year with good memories. As you receive your ~iploma, remember what you learned. Those of us watching the ceremony will be looking forward to being in your place. The end of the song goes like this: "Too many times we stand aside, and let the waters slip away. '1il what we put off 'til tomorrow has now become today. So don~ you sit upon the shoreline and say you're satisfied Choose to chance the rapids and dare to dance the tide. " Words to live Good luck ""P'""'""' Growing pains By Lee Allen Once upon a time, someone asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. "I want to be a fireman," I announced proudly. Firemen got to drive around in big, red fire trucks, and save damsels in distress. They slid down fire poles. Cool. Being a fireman was my young notion of heroism. I would have never dreamed that 30 years later I'd be back in school. I would never thought to say, "When I grow up, I want to be poor and in college." Editor In Chief- elect Things change. By the time you're grown up you've optioned off a lot of choices. By the time you've grown up, you have no more illusions about 'good' jobs or civic duty. By the time you've grown up, you have no more illusions about love, sex, or passion. By the time you've grown up, you realize there are worse things than voting republican. By the time you've grown up, a righteous day is a good meal, a successful bowel movement, and a long nap. By the time you've grown up, a righteous day is a good meal, a successful bowel movement, and a long nap. Of course, many of my friends wanted to be firemen, too. Or policemen. Bill Cameron even wanted to be president, if I'm not mistaken. Not that it makes any difference. None of my friends ever really grew up to be policemen or firemen or politicians. They're all accountants and stuff, now. Nobody ever really grows up to be what they want to be when they grow up.- So, while it is said that youth is wasted on the young, middle age guarantees no greater economy. At the risk of sounding like your father, "Don't be in such a hurry to grow up." And the next time someone asks you what you want to be when you grow up, just tell them what I always do, "I'll let you know when it happens." And don't give up on that fireman thing.

MAY 12, 1994 PAct 5_ Parking Allen continuedfrom page 1 continuedfrom page 1 While the university has promised they won't force owners from their homes, some owners are not willing to sell. "I have owned that house since 1978 and lived in it for severalyears," said William Lawler, 2045 Portage St. "I would like to retain that." Lawler, an English professor at UWSP, inherited the house from his father. He hoped to use the house to establish an institute for the arts named after his parents. "I would donate the use of space to set up a gallery and space for meetings to be held. That would be a more positive use," he said. Lawler rents eleven parking spaces on the property to students and faculty. The university might gain 20 spaces by building a parking lot, a net gain of only nine spaces, according to Lawler. "They're already getting parking that they don't maintain, and the city gets the tax," he said. "They should just be happy and let me be happy." student population, the university decided it would be more cost-effective to operate only one dining facility on campus. "We haven't had a food rate increase in three years," said Lineberger. "To do that we had to close Allen Center." With a newly remodeled DeBot Center capable of serving the entire on-campus population, the university saw itself stuck with Allen Center, a single-purpose facility which had outlived its usef,dness. The Allen Center dilemma was compounded by university space utilization regulations imposed by the UW system. According to Line berger, in order for the university to expand its facilities to meet the need of students and additional programs, the state requires that all standing buildings be in use. The empty Allen Center makes up a significant percentage ofthe space available on campus. The need to utilize the building became more urgent due to additional projects required to expand the facilities ofthe Fine Arts Center and renovate Nelson Hall. In order to obtain approval Clancy Cricket S + '21arge Bedrooms, '2 full bathrooms + Heat and water includa:l from the state for these projects, something had to be done with Allen Center.

The rest of the building sees little use, aside from the occasional booking for conferences and catered events, such as the International Dinner and the Copps Holiday Party. The name ofthe dance club has not yet been decided, but will be announced sometime after this Friday.

Douglas Perry Shelley, a graduate student at UWSP, is studying the intensity of traffic use versus the wolf use of the same area. Shelley's project is in cooperation with the WisconsinDNR and the Department of Transportation (DOT). The DOT has begun expanding the remaining two-lane stretch of Highway 53 between Trego and Hawthorne to fourlanes. Approximately 1/3 to 1/2 of ~the present Wisconsin wolf ·population occupies areas near and around the Highway 53 project area. According to Adrian Wydeven, a DNR non-game biologist, "This area is believed to be a critical movement area for wolves between Minnesota and Wisconsin." Minnesota's wolf population is between 1500 and 1800 wolves, while Wisconsin boasts only 50 wolves, according to Dr. Eric Anderson, UWSP wildlife professor and advisor for Shelley. The passive wolf recovery program in WISCOnsin depends on the immigration of wolves from Minnesota. Shelley and five other UWSP students are participating in a sixyear study, which began in 1991, of wolves and how they are impacted by development. Another graduate student is studying the behavioral patterns of wolves in an attempt to understand why they travel as they do. Research has shown that roads and vehicle traffic effect animals such as black and grizzly bears, turkeys, white-tailed deer, mule deer, mountain lions and coyotes. Shelley's report states that a high road density for wolves is "The idea has been recently questioned due to the existence of wolf packs in areas with a high road density. Research rela,tive to ·t he effects ofroad traffic on wolf behavior is needed" --Douglas Shelley considered one mile of road for every square mile. According to previous studies, wolves tend not to occupy areas of high road density. . "This idea has been recently questioned due to the existence of wolf packs in areas with a high road density," Shelley said. "Research relative to the effects of road traffic on wolf behavior is needed." Shelley worked in a study area in northwestern Wisconsin that is approximately 6,000 square miles in size. For his project, Shelley monitored two of the six wolf packs within the area. As of December 1993, there were 25-30 wolves in the area divided between six different packs, which range from two to seven wolves in size. "Since March 1992, four wolves are known to have been . killed by traffic in the study area," Shelley said. "Eleven wolf crossings of various highways were documented within the study area, two of which were on Hwy. 53 during my 1992 field season, and fourteen crossings sights during my past '93, field season." The exact effects of highway development have not yet been proven. "We can't isolate the effect of one thing on them," Anderson said. Shelley's research monitored the wolf population before the highway expansion work, and future research will study the effects on the wolf population during and after the expansion work. The purpose for the study is to look at possible highway design considerations for crossing wolves and other wildlife. Controversy over the project has arisen, "mainly concerning the economics and necessity of it," Shelley said. "The results from the six-year · study are not intended to halt the present construction, but to be used as guidelines for future highway development," Shelley stated. International · Migratory Bird Day to be observed Wisconsin will join states across the nation in observing International Migratory Bird Day on Saturday, May 14, 1994. This day-long event is intend~ to educate people about the plight of migratory birds, particularly long-distance migrants, said Sumner Matteson and David Flaspohler, avian ecologists with the Department of Natural Resources. "More than 70 percent of Wisconsin's breeding birds migrate south in the fall and about half of these are long distance migrants, otherwise known as neotropical migratory birds," MattesOn said. These birds breed and raise their young in northern North America, but as winter arrives, they migrate to Mexico, Central and South America. The birds make round-trip flights of thousands of miles each year. "We're finding that these long-distance migrants are in trouble and are suffering population declines," Flaspohler said. "These declines are due to loss and alteration of habitat here in their Wisconsin breeding grounds, in stopover sites along migration routes and in their actual tropical wintering grounds." The decline in bird population is likely an indication that problems are affecting other plant and animal species as well, the biologists said. International Migratory Bird Day is intended to call attention to the plight of these birds.

MAY 12, 1994 PAGe 7 Increasing temperatures spur fiShing action Spawning begins, anglers prep for increasing activity · by Justin Sipiorski Contributor Water temperatures have started to climb hller the end of the recent cold snap, giving opening weekend anglers . something to celebrate. All over the country, good fishing has escalated as water temperatures . have climbed iitto the upper 40s and lower 50s Walleyes in the Wisconsin River are finished spawning. Due to the warming ~rend, they are now actively foraging in the fast water areas below dams. Below the DuBay dam, walleye fishing ~ouldn't be ,better. Traditional Wolf River-style rigs and floating jigheads are bringing in walleyes. Most of the active fish are small. Occasionaily a legal-sized fish can be caught. Fishing early in the morning increases your odds of having a walleye feast. Also try early evening times, when a greater percentage of the walleyes are feeding. Panfish action has hit a slight lull, while . perch and crappies fi-nish spawning. Blue gills and pumpkinseeds are making ready for the spawn coming near the end of the month. Key in on the transitional areas, where the majority of the postspawn and pre-spawn panfish will be holding. Lake DuBay-and Lake Emily crappies will be most concentrated in brusl;l or ·• heavy cover in 10-15 foot depths. The Wisconsin River backwaters will see fish in dense cover where brush is suspended over the deeper holes. Ice-fishingjigs tipped with waxworms fished over cover areas can be deadly for big bluegills. Try fishing on or near the many bays on McDill Pond 1 or .fish the bikes associated with the Sentry golf course. Tra- ditional panfish presentations like small minnows below slip bobbers, pjeces of night crawlers or Mayflies are producing the best perch action on McDill Pond and the Sentry Lakes. The smallmouth bass run on the river is getting under way, with many good sized fish taken from Bukolt Park and the shallow rime areas near the paper mill · dams and the spillway. · Rapalas, night crnwler rigs in conjunction w.ith river rigs and minnows are all good options for taking smallmouths. Largemouth bass in the river backwaters are making the ascent to their shallow ~pawning grounds and are being caught accidentally by crappie anglers using minnows and bobbers. Slowly crank floating or jointed rapalas over timber or work small plastic worms through the root clumps associated with stumps. Catfish are staging, readying themfor the move to their fast current spawning areas belQw dams or in tributaries of the Wisconsin River. Fish deeper pools below dams and near the mouths offeeder creeks like Mill Creek. Use freshly killed 4-5 inch suckers or load hooks with five or six smaller walleye-type minnows. Fish the bottoms of the pools from sundown to midnight for the best action. SAF spreads green, plants trees by Anne Harrison ofThe Pointer Spring has kept members of the UWSP Society ofArnerican Foresters (SAF) busy planting trees and benefiting the community and the environment. · On April15,',10 SAF me~bers planted 3500 trees for private landowners as part of the ConsOlidated Tree Farm Program, according to Bill 0 'Brion, SAF vice-chairman.

Wisconsin's 15,000 lakes, thousands of miles pf streams and rivers, and 860 miles of Great Lakes shoreline offer some of the ' best opportunities for water recreation · found in the nation. .· Now, Department of Natural Resources officials say newly revised water access rules,whichbecaineeffectiveApril1, 1994, should help make it easier for the public to get on die water and enhance their enjoyment once they are there. The rules are designed to make sure the public landings and parking sites are adequate to meet the public's need with.out oveiciowding the waterway, according to Torn Thoresen of the DNRDivision ofEnforcement. "It's not always easy to balance the · recreational capacity of a lake with the public's inter~t in that specific body of water. We feel the new revisions allow us to do both," Thoresen said. The new access rules reflect years of involvement by recreational users, property owners and others who were invited to participate in their development. · The rule sets standards for the minimum and maximum number of landings and parking spaces and encourages the development ofaccess plans, Thoresen said. The rules establish a $4 maXimum fee for use of basic public landings, but it allows higher fees at landings with toilet facilities, attendants or other specific features and at Great Lakes sites. Boats over 26 feet could pay up to $14 at certain Great Lakes sites. "Overall, the rules should help balance our use of the state's waterways," Thoresen said, "The result should afford greater protection for those resources and a more enjoyable experience for those who use them." UWSP, spoke about sustainable forestry at the SAF monthly meeting. _ Last Friday, the society went on a tour ofthe Consolidated Paper mill in Wisconsin Rapids to observe the new paper-making machine.

Why Stoney Burke, of course. Mr. Burke is a political satire comedian who visited . UWSP May 9 for Political Ac.tion Week. Mr. Burke has done public speaking for twenty-five years and lives by the Gospel According to Stoney. Can you say hypocrite? That is exactly what Mr. Burke is. Burke was quite entertaining, but lacked .solid views on the issues. One minute drugs were good and the next drugs were bad. "Stick with mother nature. If it's not green it's not mean, but powder turns your brain to chowder" said Burke. He was m'o re indecisive than Ross Perot as a presidential candidate. O.k. sure, marijuana can be used f9r medical purposes and actually benefit certain people, but what about those who smoke it for the heck of it just to waste brain cells that they don't already have? Although I disagree with certain matters Mr. Burke believes in, he did have an occasional good idea come out of his trap. He made the observation that anywhere old white men are in control they build a tower to their phallus. As he said this he pOinted to the George Stein Building. Another subject that Mr. .Burke hit right on the money was education. He .said education is dying J*'do byCIYis Keley Political comedian Stoney Burke held a sidewalk forum on Monday in front ofthe U.C. for political action week. The "Gospel according to Stoney" raised eyebrows and questions. and men and women are being turned into corporate nuns and priests. Ok, I don't know about corporate nuns and priests bit, but I do believe that our educational systems are in trouble with a capital T. "How do we change education? Become a part of it," said Burke. Sorry Stoney, easier said than done. Stoney Burke was amusing and got many people aroused over several issues. In fact, many spectators warited to bash his brains in, including myself on certain occasions. Although I got upset over his opinions, maybe that is what he wanted. Maybe getting students frazzled enough' to question radical issues is what his sole 9bjective is. If that's the case, then Mr. Stoney Burke achieved his goal at UWSP.

Uh huh huh; this sucks ... sorry, I couldn't resist. Parking is always a good place to start. I'm sure we all apprectiate the expensive heated booths installed in the new and unimproved lot X - just in time for spring. "Please take a ticket." No, how about please shut up and try this parking-lot renovation thing again! Building a whole new parking ramp has to be more cost effective than this automated nightmare.

SGA gave the Life Time Service Award to retiree Bob Busch, director of University Centers. "Bob has done so much to shape this campus, he is a living legend. His presence and influence will be missed," said David Kunze. · It's going to be strange saying goodbye to someone who has been such an inspiration to all. Many people know little about Bob. He's usually pretty quiet, allowing students to have their input on how their building should be run, even though initially, Bob was the person who created everything the students inherited. As one of Bob's colleagues states, "Bob is the last person to blow his own hom. He will . never take credit for his own accomplishments." As an advocate for the stu- . dents, Bob has listened to stu·dents voice their concerns and ideas, and has act~ in support of ·services and policies students requested. What services--can we thank Bob for? Tyme machines, Federal Express, Haircraft, laundry ser- vices, and check cashing were all things that students requested and BOb implemented. Areas like Conference and Reservations, the University Activities .Board (UAB), and Program Services would not exist if Bob Busch hadn't been at this university to develop programming opportunities that we · 110w take for granted. These facts clearly illustrate Bob's hard work and his dedication toward the students on this campus. As students, we can only hope that Bob's predecessor will be as considerate, enterprising, and creative. We students have gained a lot of freedom and ownership within our university centers through Bob Busch. So as we stroll through the halls of each centers building, remember that all of what is seen didn't magically appear. Everything required intense thought and follow-through. Thankfully, we student~ can now take pride in a facility that continually changes with our own needs, because after all, these buildings, programs, arid services were created for us and now operated by us- the students. Happy Retirement, Bob, thanks for making this all happen. Senior Koi Chan ofthe UWSP International Club explains exotic foods during the curttf#!Jt~~ Saturday at Pfiffner Park.

Student groups raise .political awareness by Lisa Herman Features Editor Crosses marked the death of education on Monday as part of Political Action Week sponsored by R.I.G.H.T. and Amnesty InternationaL The large wooden crucifixes located in front of the U.C. and the sundial bad pages of a docu• ment entitled "Partners in the Process," stapled to it. The purpose was to raise questions about the recent trend in higher education which Seem to treat students as products of the university. According to Alex Schult'z article in Chaos, he states there is increased pressure from the private sector on government to provide "some positive feedback in the form of accountability for the monies being spent on our universities." As a result, seniors are taking standardized exams for degree assessment and freshman are required to compile a portfolio. · This emphasis and time spent on assessment, accountability, stratigic planning and performance standards are turning our universities into tech schools, according to Schultz. Another issue tackled during political action week includes supporting the Kennedy Amendment which demands to stop funding for the The U.S. School of the Americas. As stated in an article in Chaos, "The SOA was established in Panama in 1946 to promote stability in Central and South America and train U.S. soldiers for jungle war. "Instead, it has trained dictators, death squads and people like Manuel Noriega and Major Joseph Francois of Haiti." Junior Amy Mondloch, along with several other UWSP students and other groups across the country wearing black armbands, are fasting five to twelve days to ensure the Kennedy Amendment gets passed.

MAY 1'2. 1994 PAGt 15 Softball ends loud season with conference whimper After a brilliant tum-around during the regular season and capturing a WWIAC East Division title, the new UWSP softball team swallowed two losses at the conference championship tournament on Friday and Saturday. The Pointers (27-14 this year after a 13-13 record in 1993) whipped l)W-Stout 7-2 in their opener on Friday, then lost a heart-breaker in the afternoon as UW-LaCrosse scored the tiebreaker in the top of the last i_!lning to grab a 4-3 \Vin. The Pointer high wouldn't last, though, as fir~t-year coach Dean Shuda's team ended their season on a down note in a 5-3 loss to UW-Platteville. "We peaked a couple weeks ago," said Shuda, who was elected WWIAC Coach of the Year. "It's tough to stay playing the type of ball we were playing. "We didn't play that poorly at conference, but maybe not as good as couple of weeks ago." a UWSP7,UWS2 Staff ~ce Amy Prochaska turned in a brilliant performance, limiting the Blue Devils to three hits while striking out three as seven different Pointers scored runs. Lead-offbatter Erin Buenzli led the Pointer charge with two hits in five trips to the plate, along with a walk, two RBI's and a run scored. All-conference selections Kelli Harms and Amy Steigerwald also made their marks, going 2for-4 and 2-for-3 respectively. UWL4,UWSP3 With the game locked 3-3 for two innings, the Eagles came up with just enough in their half of the eighth and final inning to down the Pointers 4-3 on Friday afternoon. This hitters' dual came down to timing and a little luck as the teams clocked 20 hits between them. Eagle pitcher Lori Thompson mowed down five batters while Point starter Cammie Sukow struck out three. Buenzli again led the Pointers with a 3-for-4 day at the plate with two runs scored. UWPS,UWSPJ Saturday turned out to be a continuation ofFriday's trend for the Pointers. Despite walking six batters while striking out only one, Pioneer pitcher Molly Johnson came out with the win courtesy of a weak three-hit performance from the Pointers. Point starter Steigerwald gave up nine hits, struck out three and walked three in the loss. Despite the disappointment of missing the conference crown, Shuda wasn't dismayed. "We made a lot of strides this year, both on and off the field as far as the mental aspect of the game goes," said Shuda. "If we can improve half as much next year as we did this year over last, you'll be seeing a national competitor." The Pointers will lose all-conference seniors Michelle Krueger, Melanie Webb and Steigerwald, while retaining the core of this year's title team. Shu$ showed how proud he see Softball page 16 Baseball team (finally) finishes transition season Seasons come and go, and the UWSP baseball team is probably glad to see this one finally do the ·latter. After winning the final home double header against UWPlatteville on Friday 8-3 and 12-9, the Pointers dropped 5-0 and 8-0 goose eggs versus WSUC Southern Division champ UW-Oshkosh on Saturday to end the season on a less than cheery note. . UWSP8,UWP3 The Pointers (who wound up 16-20 overall, 4-8 in the WSUC) overcame a 2-0 deficit in the fourth inning to win their fifteenth game of the year behind a six-strikeout performance by starting pitcher Shawn Schultz (4-3). GaryKostuchowskiand Allen Zeman led the way for the coach Guy Otte's crew, hitting 3-for-4 and 2-for-2 respectively. .Zeman also scored two runs, drew a walk and hit an RBI while Kostuchowski added a run of his own. UWSP 12, UWP 9 Point struggled in the nightcap, giving up 10 hits to the Pioneers while knocking only 11 of their own. Craig Crawford (2-0) came in to relieve Pointer starter Scott Soderberg, who had all nine runs charged to him in five and twothirds innings. Soderberg gave up only two walks and struck out five in the win~ with Crawford added three K's of his own. Andy Erlandson played the hero in this, the last Pointer win of the year, going 3-for-4 at the plate with four RBI's and a run scored. . "On Friday, Schultzy and Soderberg both threw well," said Otte. "For Soderberg, we didn't get some double plays that would have helped get him out of some innings."· UWOS,UWSPO Behind a more-than-decent six- .· hit, no-walk performance by pitcher Aaron Parks (2-3), the Pointers managed a scant two :hits in one of tlieirworst games at the plate this year. "On Friday, we hit the ball well, and on Saturday, we didn't," said Otte.. "The pitching all weekend was solid, but we've got to put all three elements ofthe game(including defense) together." On top ofthe their lack of:hits, the Poinbters committed four errors in the opener and fanned eight times against Titan pitcher KevinMlodik (6-0). see Batboys page 16 BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND photo by Kristen Himsl Several students take advantage of the warm weat~er wi~h a game of volleyball . behind Allen Center before rains soaked central Wlsconsm Wednesday. -Men's track team shows town running flashes of brilliance This past Saturday night, much to the delight of spectator~ on the street, the UWSP track team made their annual run through the streets of downtown Stevens Pomt naked. thi be .of alleged There was some question about whether or not the streak would t~e plac~ s yearth caus:We're not threats from alumni to quit funding the track team, but that wasn t_ eno~g to stop em. me~::::r: ~~!~':;:!ss~:~~r~~~t~~~~~~~e::~~::;~:t:!nt~~i!~~~=~~:n Main and quickly into an alley where clotl).ing.was waiting. r ts "I think it's crazy tors from street-side gave approval with cheers and numero~ com~ 1men · buts:;::~ous," commented Eric Heuser.
