.A lcohol Awareness Week
educates UWSP students
Military invades Schmeekle
"\
By Gregory Vandenberg
NEW~EoiToR
National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week (NCAAW) kicks
off Monday, Oct. 16, with a full slate of events aimed towards
educl.ting students on the dangers of alcohol.
"When people drink excessively, it is not just them that feel
the c~m5equences," said Julie Zsido, advisor of Hot SHOTS (Students'!Helping Others Think Sensibly.) "It is their friends and the
peopl~ surrounding them that feet the effects."
Tfu-oughout the week numerous events and information booths
acros~ campus will publicize the possible problems that alcohol
may cause and what is happening locally in alcoholic issues.
The week will begin with "Alcohol: Recreational Poisoning,"
a program featuring Dr. Tom Rowe of UWSP's Psychology Department.
Rowe will be discussing the phenomenal effects alcohol has on
the body and what happens when you mix alcohol with other types
of medications and drugs.
The program begins at 7 p.m. in the Laird Room of the University Center (UC) and is sponsored by the Baha'i Club.
World class wrestler Dennis Hall will be giving a testimony of
his struggle with the effects of alcohol when he presents "Brotherly Love: A Personal Story of DWI (Driving While under the
Influence).
Hall's brother was killed because of an incident of drinking
and driving after a college house party. The former Olympian
and UWSP stud~nt will discuss the tragedy of his brother's death
and how he has dealt with it.
His presentation begins at 7 p.m. Tuesday night in the Laird
Room and is sponsored by the Office of Alcohol Education.
· Tuesday night also hosts "Lightweight, Middleweight, and
Heavyweight: Alcohol and your Body." There will be an opportunity for stude~ts to receive information on how body weight
determines the effects of alcohol on the human body.
The Stevens Point Police Department (SPPD) will also conduct roadside sobriety tests and discuss the cost and impact of a
drunk driving test. This gives students a chance to watch three
different sizes of people consume alcohol under the supervision of
the SPPD.
The tests will begin at 7:30p.m. and will include a simple
academic test to show how alcohol will affect yoilr academic abilities. The program is sponsored by Thomson Hall and the Thomson
Hall Basement Lounge.
Pray-Sims Hall will host a "Party in My Room... Mocktails
Galord" at 9 p.m. on Wednesday in the Pray-Sims Lobby and
Community Advisors' rooms on houses one, two, and three.
"Beer Keg Party... Root Beer That Is" is slated for 7 p.m. Thursday in the Recreational Service Room in the UC. It gives students
an alternative beer to drink and socialize. The keg party is sponsored by the Residence Hall Association.
Thursday night hosts the 2nd annual "HallAware Night" in
the DeBot Center. The festivities begin at 8:37 p.m. and include
various Halloween themes including games and prizes. HallAware
is sponsored by BACCHUS (Boost Alcohol Consciousness Concerning the Health of University Students) and is scheduled to
end at 10:52 p.m.
The week-long celebration wraps up on Friday night with a
disco music party at Tremors Dance Club in the Allen Center.
The night begins at 9 p.m. and will feature the greatest dance hits
from the 1970s.
·
According to sponsors, the week is designed to show students
that there are alternatives to drinking, and that alcohol consumption is too widespread on college campuses.
"I think a problem exists," said UWSP student Leslie Obney.
"People need to control their consumption, because it is important
to know when to say no."

Tommy's club recruits new members
Student claims governor's attitu,de p.oor
Dear Editor:
Well, fellow cheese heads, the
word is out that our omnipotent
and esteemed Governor Tommy
Thompson has succeeded in
keeping the Milwaukee Brewers
in Milwaukee.
Before I begin, I must admit
that I could in no way be considered a sports fan.
In my opinion, for something
to be considered a sport it must
meet the following qualifications:
the !lCtivity must endanger the
lives ofthe participants, and there
must be some object which travels in excess of 120 m.p.h.
Thus, the only sport which I
can fully endorse is auto racing.
But that is for another time;
today's topic is baseball.
From what I know, the Brewers will build a new stadium and
a portion of WISCOnsin's residents
will pay for it.
Now, I am not against using
some sort of financial assistance
to woo businesses into staying
within an area, so long as said
businesses somehow compensate
the residents of the area.
Ifthe cost of the new stadium

The lower numbers could reflect poor conditions for pheasant crowing -the method used to
count birds-when the surveys
were conducted, or it could reflect
a decline in some local populations. ·
According to Foy, the local
declines could be due to a reduction in crop acreage left idle by
farmers or because with a dry
warm spring in 1994, farmers
were able to make hay early in
the year, possibly reducing pheasant production in spite of the excellent weather.

.Crane.count fast approaching
By Scott Van Natta
OlrroooRS EDITOR
Year after year the eastern
population of the Greater Sandhill Crane rises. Without the annual fall crane count, the known
increase ofover 9,000 birds since
1979 in Wisconsin alone would
not be possible.
The fall survey is the most
useful way to estimate the size
and trend of this particular species.
This year's count takes place
on Saturday, October 28th, and
as is custom, begins around 5:30
a.m. Volunteers will want to be

for in most cases, ~he sandhill
cranes will be heard long before
they are seen.
Cranes are most active in the
early morning and in the evening.
Wetlands, marshes, and farmer's
fields, are the areas to concentrate
on when searching for cranes.

And now, a hunt of a different kind.
It was the morning after opening day and two_inches of light,
fluffy, snow had fallen during the night. A light fog sifted through
the tree tops, slowly drifting to the southeast.
A moderately dense forest of a pine and spruce mix, interspersed with an occasional oak, surrounded a five acre field.
Near the edge of that field, a hunter lay on his stomach, watching for the slightest movement.
And then he saw them, slowly making their way across the
open spance of brown grass. There were five of them, casually
walking toward the hunter's side of the field.
Suddenly, the hunter's ears perked up as he heard a sound from
behind him. Swiveling his head, he saw another, like the ones in
the field, only this one was bigger.
He discreetly shifted his position to face his new prey.
His target was stumbling through the brush and he watched it
trip over a hidden root and fall on its face. Then it picked itSelf up
and continued on, slipping every other step; he had no idea.that he .
was being watched.
The hunter stood up and moved a few steps to his left to line up
a better shot.
His prey stopped when it saw others of its kind in the field.
The hunter decided that this was a good time; it was almost too
easy.
. But just to make it more interesting, he tapped a foot against a
nearby tree. The man turned to look.
The hunter had, between his teeth, a thin rope that led to the
trigger of his right side-mounted 12-illage. For a moment they
stared at each other. Then the hunter jerked his head hard to the
left and the gun discharged.
The human landed flat on his back and didn't move. Off in the
distance, the hunter heard another shot. He turned his head toward the field to see the humans scattering. He could see one
lying in the grass; his younger brother had gotten a kill as well.
He walked up to his fallen prey, bent his head down and prodded the human with his antlers. There was not a twitch to be seen.
A moment later, his brother bounded up next to him. "Mine's
only a five pointer," he said with a tone of disappointment.
"Awe, that's too bad," said the elder brother as he peeled back
the human's shirt to reveal an enormous gut. He turned to his
brother and smiled. "Count'em and weep!"
Then he gave the carcass a hard kick to the side. He counted
until the human's gut stopped bouncing back and forth.
"Eleven," he said to his brother.
"Wow. That's even better than last year." The younger brother
turned toward the field to get his kill. "There were a couple females that scattered to the east," he said as he was walking away.
"Oh good!" said the other hunter, "I was hoping I'd get to use
my female tag this year."
No no no. Tis a silly story.

The Goby, another exotic fish causes
trouble
~~~~
.
DIRECTOR DNR BUREAU OF FISHERIES
MANAGEMENT
It seems there is no end to the
exotic fish species that enter the
Great Lakes through the bal!ast
water in the bellies of
transoceanic ships.
First came. zebra mussels,
then the Eurasian ruffe - and
now make way for the round
goby.
A single goby was recovered
from the Duluth and Superior
Harbor in July of this year. We
expect that they will enter the
Wisconsin waters of Lake Michigan from Illinois very soon.
Around goby is a bottomdwelling fish that is native to the
Black and Caspian seas, near
Turkey. The head ofa round goby
looks vaguely like a frog, with its

eyes set high near the top of its
head. They grow up to a foot
long, but most are stnaller.
Perhaps the goby's most unusual attribute is fused pelvic fins.
This means their two bottom fins
are joined to form a sort of suction cup that lets them hang on
to rocks very well, even in a
strong current.
Round gobies were first discovered in 1990 in the St. Clair
River near Detroit, by a University of Michigan researcher,
David Jude. They're already in
Lakes Erie, Huron, Michigan and
. Superior.
No gobies have as yet been
seen in Wisconsin, but I'd guess
some Kenosha or Racine perch
angler will catch one in 1996 for
sure.
There are P.lenty of gobies in
the Illinois and Indiana waters of
Lake Michigan just a few miles
south.
These new critters eat all
kinds ofaquatic insects and other
bottom-dwelling creatures, including zebra mussels. But don't
expect them to control the pesky
zebras - there are far too many
mussels and we sure don't want
huge populations of gobies.
Gobies will cause trouble
enough for our native fish: They
are extremely aggressive, pugnacious fish that will out compete a
shy fish fer food .
How our new fish will fit into
the Great Lakes community remains to be seen. We hope they
will become just another species
in a complicated food web but we
can only wait and see.
The ocean ships entering the
Great Lakes are voluntarily
changing ballast water out in the
ocean before they get here. Congress needs to tighten these rules
to protect our environment.
So, what is the bag limit on
gobies? It's zero.
It is currently illegal to possess a goby, dead or alive, because
we must ·take no chances that
these critters might get into our
inland waters.

Just
Testing
By Kate Roberts
FEATURES EDITOR
Most of us have already taken numerous exams, tests, and
midterms (even though it is not quite the middle of the term
yet). Sometimes it is hard to get through all of them. You
need to have some type of goal to work toward. For me it's
graduation. The first tests of the year are always the ~oughest.
You never know what to expect. Even after you have asked
others what the tests will be like, it does not help much because what works for them may not work for you.
This also true of all the relationships you have during your
college career. Your intelligence isn't the only thing that is
put to the test during the first months of the semester, many
friendships are being tested too. We all have those high school
friends from back home that we try to keep in touch with.
Plus all of those people who we got to know in the last couple
of years here at UWSP that transferred, graduated or took a
semester off. Maintaining these friendship is not as easy as it
was when you saw each other everyday. This is the time when
you find out how strong those bonds of friendship really are.
Your friends will let you know whether or not you make the
grade.
The flip side of this deals with the friends you see everyday, your roommates. I happen to have great relationship with
mine, but some living situations can be very tense. This is
especially common with those who live in the residence halls.
A couple years ago I decided to room with my best friend, and
soon learned that this was going to be a huge test of our friendship. Luckily we are still friends, we have even talked about
living together again, just not in the same room. We sure
learned our lesson.
·
Another facet of relationships is the boyfriend-gi.rlfriend
thing. Long distance romances can be tough. Actually, even
those that live in the same place have issues to face. One person in the relationship may feel that the other person no longer
has time for him or her. In these situations attendance and
participation will influence your final grade. This is most often a pass-fail situation.
· Time seems to be the overriding factor in most of these
tests that we find ourselves taking in life. Deciding what to
do with the time we have is, in itself, an examination, an
examination of what our priorities are and where our lOyalties lie. In real life, you won't be graded on a curve.

Football powers past Stout
By Mike Beacom
SPORTS EDITOR
Last Saturday was a big day
for Pointer football and head
coach JohnMiech. Notjust because it 'was homecoming, but
also because the coach and his
team welcomed back two key
starters in quarterback Torn
Fitzgerald and wide receiver Jose
Banda.
Both had failed to make the
starting lineup since the season
opener against Minot State nearly
a month ago.
And after seeing only limited
action against Eau Claire in the
previous week, it would be
difficult for any one to expect
much out of the dangerous
passing combo in Saturday's
game against Stout.
But both players' homecoming performance more than
exceeded expectations.
The Pointers (5-0, 2-0 in the
WSUC) got out to an early lead
in the game and had a 31-6
halftime lead.
Fitzgerald was phenomenal in
the first half, racking up 200
yards passing and adding three
touchdowns. Tim Ott was on the
receiving end of two of the three
tosses, both coming in an impressive 22 point second quarter.
In the second half, Stevens
Point used_long scoring strikes
through the air and a strong mix
of runners on the ground to add
on to their scoreboard total.
Fitzgerald tallied his fifth
touchdown of the day when he
hooked up with Banda for a 39

yard touchdown early in the
fourth quarter.
The pass not only gave
Fitzgerald 300 passing yards, but
also gave Banda 100 yards re- ·
ceiving for the day coming on six
receptions.
"(Fitzgerald and Banda) are
veteran football players," said
Miech. "We were happy with the
wav they performed."
Running
back
Torn
McKinney finished up the
scoring for Point with a touchdown run from six yards out.
McKinney gained 52 yards on
five consecutive carries during
the drive.
Miech also commented on his
offensive line, which only gave
up one sack and had been doing
a commendable job all year.
"In all the years that I've been
at UWSP, this is the most talented
group I've had here," said Miech
after the 52-20 win. "We have
the luxury to either run or pass."
Point heads to Oshkosh this
week to face the 3-2 Titans. The
Titans head into the match up
after suffering two straight conference losses.
The Pointers have beaten
Oshkosh 11 straight times, including a 38-0 route in Point last
year.
After Oshkosh, the Pointers
face perhaps their two toughest
opponents of the year, La Crosse
and Whitewater.
"This next five weeks is
going to be like a tornado,"
added Miech. "We're just going
to play our football."

The UWSP men's cross
country team traveled to the
"Golden Donie" in South Bend,
Indiana for the Notre Dame Cross
Country Invitational, where they
held up well against stiff competition, finishing ninth out of
twenty teams.
The women's team competed
on Friday in the Bluegold Invitational hosted by UW-Eau Claire
and, despite missing runners due
to classes and exams, placed
seventh out of fifteen teams.
The men's meet was won by
Mankato State University with 88
points. WSUC rival UWOshkosh was a close second with
93. The rest of the team scores
were very tight, with only a
thirty-six point margin between
the ninth place Pointers' 210
points and third place Rochester
Institute's 174.
The Pointers' top finisher was
Brian Thill, who carne in 32nd
with a time of 26:23. Rounding
out the scoring for UWSP were
Chad Johnson, Pat Stillman,
Matt Hayes, and C. Christensen.
"As a team we ran well, not
great, but well. I think we could
have run better," said men's
coach Rick Witt. "We had two
guys who were under the
weather, health-wise."
"This meet has very good
competition, and this was the first
time we've seen this good ofcompetition. We are making progress,
our gap between our first and fifth
runners was only twenty-five seconds," added Witt.
UW-Oshkosh dominated the
women's invitational, placing all
seven of their runners in the top
eighteen, scoring 41 points. The
Pointers finished seventh with
205 points.
Sarah Anderson from UWSuperior toured the wet and rainy
5,000 course in 18:18.
Heather Ironside, who finished in seventh place with a
time of 18:35, took the top spot
for Point.
Also scoring points were
Dawn Ostrowski, Sara Drake,
Mia Sondreal, and Kim Marois.
As for the team, women's
Coach Len Hill was pleased with
the outcome. "We have rebounded about 80% from last
week's performance. We are once
again at a place where we can
challenge the top teams in the
conference," said Hill.
Coach Hill was impressed
with the race of senior Heather
Ironside.
"Heather had the best race of
her career. She really got into it
and raced, and there were some
good runners in this meet."
Senior Kim Marois was
named Pointer of the Week for
the women's team.
"Kim has really come on this
year and is.racing with a lot of
confidence," added Hill
The men's team will compete
at the Jim Drews Invite hosted by
UW-La Crosse on Saturday.
The women's team also heads
to La Crosse for the Tori
Neubauer Invitational.

Cwik beats St~ Mary's
in game's final minute
By Cory Wojtalewicz
CONTRIBUTOR
The UWSP women's soccer
team traveled to Winona, MN,
last Wednesday to take on St.
Mary's at Ochrymowycz Field.
The Pointers improved their
record to 9-1-0 with a hard fought
1-0 victory.
The only· goal of the game
camewithjust 1:05 remaining in
regulation. Point's Kim Cwik, a
defensive player, scored on a shot
to the lower left hand corner that
got past St. Mary's goalie Nikki
Johnson.
Cwik was assisted on the goal
by Jody Rosenthal. Savonte
Walker held St. Mary's scoreless
as she had nine saves in goal.
"We came out flat the first
half and really didn't play our
game. But we played much more
aggresively the second half," said
head coach Sheila Miech. "We
dominated and really played to
win."
" It's always tough to go there
and play. St. Mary's was ranked
18th in our region and we ranked
second in our region and 13th
overrJl, according to the ISAA
poll," added Miech. "We knew
that it was a game we had to win
especially after the loss we suffered the week before. We just
stayed focused in the second half ·and found a way to win."
The Pointers will play at
Chicago on Wednesday bef<ye
travding to Platteville on
Saturday and to Luther on
Sunday.
"This was a much needed win
for us, with postseason
tournamnet bids coming up, we
couldn't afford to lose this one,"
added Miech.

can't afford not to. Not when you realize that your
retirement can last 20 to 30 years or more. You'll want to
live at least as comfortably then as you do .now. And that
takes planning.
By starting to save now, you can take advantagP. of tax
deferral and give your money time to compound and grow.
~~ider this: Set aside just $100 each month beginning at
age 30 and you can accumulate over $172,109° by the time
you reach age 65. But wait ten y~ars and you'll have to
budget $219 each month to reach the same goaL
