While Kauffman said that he

he mentioned the importance of

Kauffman said.
Kauffman said that recycling

The duffel bag contained videotapes and a homemade camera mount

bag were notes with names and dates of birth."
A search of Miller's property 'indicated there were similar lists,

Of the 160 student organizations on the UW-SP campus, less than
half are funded by the $115.90 student activity fee, which is divided
many times before it is allocated to student groups by the Student
Government Association (SGA).
UW- Stevens Point SGA President Michael Snyder says that Wisconsin is the only state university system that allows the student
government complete control over which student organizations receive funding. But that may change if the case is heard by the Supreme Court.
:'The Southworth case really challenges the right of students to
organize through their student government and allocate funds to keep
student life alive on c~mpuses," says Snyder.
The student activity fee will remain the way it is until the Supreme
Court hears the case.
"Of course there is no sense of what the schedule of all of this is
going to be: how soon will the Supreme Court consider it, if they
consider it at all?," Ch ncellorGeorge said. "The only thing we know
right now is for next s mester, it will probably be business as usual."

Twice over the past week, a
pair of individuals from the
Stevens Point area have appeared
in court to face criminal charges
stemming from different incidents.
Last Wednesday, Jeffry Knick
was arrested in the parking lot of
AnchorBank, located on Division
Street, after alledgely pointing a
gun at a bank employee.
While I would never say that I
am a friend ofMr. Knick, we played
on the same softball team this past
summer, and I would say hello
whenever I saw him at the local
watering hole.
This man has always intrigued
me. As a journalist, I've always
enjoyed talking to people, because everyone has a story to
their life. I was interested in Mr.
Knick's.story.
Probably a month ago, I was
at Country Kitchen, when Knick
proached
with a friendly greeting.
He repl' ied with a "Hello," and
asked me o sit down at his table.
I began taking to him and getting
to know h~m. He told me of arecent trip opt east to visit a relative
at an armed forces base.
We tajked for no more than
five minutes, but in that short time,
I learned Imore about this man
than in tf.e two years I have
known of im.
Most mportantly, I learned
that Mr. Knick is not well. While I
can't say for sure why, ,I, as well
as many !others can see this.
Whether ~.is problems stem from
his trip tofietnam during hisservice, or rom other reasons, it
would be absolute crime for him
to spend tjme in prison.
Jeff's punishment must be
served in a place where professionals cap monitor his state.

Secondhand
smoke hurts
everyone
Dear Editor:
Smoking continues to be a
problem on our campus. Students
are exposed to cigarette),moke
when entering or existing buildings. Cigarette smoke contains 47
known carcinogens. While we
cannot control people's right to
smoke, we ought to be able to
control our own exposure to that
smoke. We think select doorways
should be designated as smoking
areas. Students would be able to
contro) their exposure to secondhand smoke.

---' --This weekend, thousands of
hunters will take to the woods
and fields across Wisconsin to
renew one of the strongest traditions in the state.
Brothers and cousins, sons
and dads, not to mention a few
mothers and daughters will take
part in the silent, lonely sits on
stand and the warm camaraderie
of hunting stories told around a
fire while enjoying fresh venison.
Hunters will pursue the
state's estimated 1.25 million
deer. This season's harvest
should be similar to last season's
harvest of292,513 deer.
Though not as high as the
record harvests of the early
1990s, it's still a hefty amount of
deer. Population levels are now
lower than earlier in this decade
as the herd population has come
closer to the management goals.

in the area means more deer will
survive to grow larger antlers.
Agricultural regions of central
Wisconsin as usual have high
deer populations. The only Zone
T hunt was held in this region,
attesting to the high number of
deer present here. But where
there are deer, there are hunters.
This region also has one of the
highest hunter densities in the
state. Although high numbers of
deer may mean success for the
hunter looking for venison,
people searching for big bucks
may have to do so a little harder
than other areas of the state.
Deer populations in both the
west-central and south-eastern
parts of the state should be similar to last year while hunters in
the south~central part of the state
may find populations slightly
lower than last year.
No matter where you go or
what type of hunting you intend
to do, there's a place in ,Wisconsin to fit your niche and hopefully
put some venison in the freezer.
Preserving the pieces of our past
By Lisa Rothe
OuTDOORS REPORTER
):
ti'fnhJ~tlcon
past two years that the DNR had
to open a special Zone T hunt in
several Deer Management Units
(DMUS) across the state. The
success of these hunts at controlling population levels is apparent
since this special season was only
opened in one DMU this year.
The severity oflast winter was
one of the lowest on record, resuiting in very little mortality. In
effect, there should be an abundance of deer this season. As a
result, the DNR made 40,000
antlerless permits available to try
to curtail the herd size.
Season outlook varies by Iocation. Hunters in the north
should see more deer than last
year because of the mild winter.
Populations are generally at or
slightly _above their respective
goal levels. Since fewer people
hunt this region, there should be
a better chance of drawing one of
the relatively few ant1erless deer
permits. Also, this may be the
best place in the state for big
bucks since less hunting pressure
Normally I'd spend a cold,
gray Saturday in bed with a good
book. But this last weekend, instead of losing myself in
Dickens, a friend and I fell in
love with Wisconsin's rich history. Schmeeckle Reserve~ s
Barns of Wisconsin presentation
drowned out our laziness for the
afternoon.
When the German, Dutch,
Irish, Polish and Scandinavian
immigrants settled in Wisconsin
after it became a state in 1848,
virgin pine and hardwood forests
greeted them. Realizing the economic benefits of harvesting timber, the lumber industry flourished.
After the land was cleared of
stumps, the immigrants started
farming for grains. However, by
1890, dairy farming dominated
the agricultural industry. Barns
dotted the landscape as the hardwoods and pines once had. According to a booklet published by
the Marathon County Historical
Society and the Marathon
County Sesquicentennial Society
entitled Discover Marathon
County's Agricultural Heritage,
preservation of these barns is a
key to remembering the past.
"The barns and silos of Marathon County are a reflection of
both the importance of dairy
farming in the area since the
1890s and the ethnic heritage of
the county's farmers." Driving
home this Thanksgiving, I challenge you to finfJ the farms that
you normally overlook. Seeing
the decrepit or beautifully kept
barns will hopefully provoke you
to wonder about the trials and
tribulations faced
every day by immigrant farmers.
Often times
barns are red.
Why is itthat most
, every bam that we
see isn't painted a
different color?
Ferrous oxide, or
rust, is the main
component of red paint. Because
it was inexpensive, farmers attempting to cut comers used the
readily available, now traditional,
red paint for their barns.
The earliest barns in the
county, built by the derman immigrants, were log barns built
quickly and cheaply. !Like the log
barns, the Germans introduced
half-timber barns. ~hese were
constructed without nails using
wooden tenons and mortices. The
Poles arrived soon after the Germans and adopted their architectural expertise.
Other types of barns, such as
three-bay, bank, forebay and two-
story, were and still are used for
different purposes in Wisconsin.
However, the presentation centered more on roof types than the
architecture of barns. Gable,
arched/round, and the English and
Dutch gambrel are roof styles
most likely recognized by everyone.
I encourage you to go to the
library and find a history book.
Looking at barns will never be the
same again. Large parts of our
community were built by the
hands of diligent, dedicated farmers whose barns may still stand
as a testimony of time and hard
work.

Wisconsin to be studied for reintroduction of whooping cranes
Breeding range of crares to be reestablished from /central Canada to southern Mexico
Whooping cranes may be reintroduced in Wisconsin if a f~deral assessment finds that the state
has sufficient habitatto support a
breeding population of these endangered birds, state and federal
officials announced.
The whooping crane is making a steady recovery thanks to
the efforts of the U.S. Fish and
Wildlife Service (USFWS), the
Canadian Wildlife Service, and
the International Crane Foundation (ICF).
·Pushedtothebrinkofextinction in the early 1900s, when there
were just 15 birds in_the entire
world, there are now 265 whooping cranes in the wild and 132 in
captivity in North America.

Plant. However, if state law permits, hunters can only pull back
their bows on a doe.
The city's Public Works Committee had recommended last
week for the hunt to be for bucks.
Alderman Joe Niedbalski said
the best way to lower a population is to hunt bucks and not does.
"You don't do it by thinning
the does."
The hunting area stretches
along the W~sconsin River south
to Howard Avenue. The area extends as far east as Whiting A venue with the western boarder
150 feet east of the Green Circle
Trail.
Baiting anddriving deer will
not be allo'red and hunting is
only opened to city-owned land.
Parking is al~o restricted to a section of Whiting A venue and a
portion of Mason Street.
Last year seven deer were
killed during the late hunt, said
Jon VanAlstine, Director of Public Works.
Hunting permits will be issued
on a lottery basis. Applicants
must register in person at the
Stevens Point Engineering Department in County-City Building, 1515 Strongs Ave. The deadline for applications is Wednesday, Nov. 25 at 10 p.m.

whooping crane reintroduction.
"In addition to collecting biological information on habitat
suitability, we will be collecting
information pertaining to the social aspects of this effort such as
peoples' concerns about the impacts on hunting, use of marshlands, a~d potential for crop damage."
Once the habitat feasibility
study is completed and a determination is made that Wisconsin
has sufficient habitat to maintain
awhoopingcranepopulation,the
DNR will decide whether or not
to proceed with reintroduction efforts.
If the decision is "yes," a federal environmental assessment
will be developed for public comment before the final USFWS
decision is made.
"There is little question that
whooping cranes in Wisconsin
would provide a tremendous
boost to bird-watching activities
in the state," Miller said. "The
associated economic impacts
would be a significant addition to
the already six billion dollar fish
and wildlife-based industry in the
state."

Open Classic against Upper Iowa
By Jessica Burda
SPORTS EDITOR
An emotional season kickoff
awaits the UW-Stevens Point
men's basketball team, as they say
hello to another season of hoops
and goodbye to a close friend
and teamm"ate.
·
The Pointers start the basketball year with the 15th Annual
Terry Porter Classic Friday at
Quandt Fieldhouse. Point tips off
the Classic with a game against
the visiting Upper Iowa University Peacocks. But before the
much anticipated action begins,
the Pointers must first. provide
some closure for themselves and
their fans.
Friday night before tip-off at 7
p.m., the UW-SP team will hold a
ceremony in honor of teammate
Kurt Hoerman, who died tragically
in a car accident this summer.
"You'll always deal with negative things," head coach Jack
Bennett said. "But this really
brought us to our knees as a team.
Our greatest tribute is to play
hard like Kurt always did."
During the pre-game ceremony, the team plans to present
Boerman's parents with a framed
game jersey oftheir late teammate.
Additionally, the Pointers will
leave an open space for him on
the Point bench and his locker
empty throughout the rest of the
year. All oruoerman's teammates
will be wearing armbands with his
initials and number and marking
their game shoes as well.
"It's going to be an emotional
event," Beqnett said, "it will put
some closure from a team standpoint."
Hoerman played point guard
in his three years with the team,
spending one year as a redshirt
freshman.
"In the next two years, his role
would hav~ been even greater,"
Bennett said. "We trust he'll be
with the te~ in spirit. We'll carry
his memory with us."
As they pegin their season, the
Pointers are looking beyond the
past months and ahead to this
weekend's Classic.
"We do~'t know a whole lot
about (Upper Iowa)," Bennett
said. "They1re very athletic, very
quick and we'll have to match
up."
A win against Upper Iowa ensures UW-SP a championship
berth against either Viterbo College or Carroll College.
The Terry Porter Classic leads
the Pointers almost straight into
their WIAC competition, with one
stop over at Winona State Nov.
24, before the Dogs face UWWhitewater pee. 2.
"This tournament will test out
our depth and our basic chemistry," Bennett said. "It's going to
be a very good tournament."
CC men head to nationals
Women finish seventh in regional
By Mike Kemmeter
EDITOR-IN-CHIEF
Revenge is sweet, but the UV{-Stevens Point men's cross country
team still has a lot more work to do.
The Pointers qualified for the NCAA Division ~II National Championships by finishing second with 85 points at the Midwest Regional
in St. Louis ..And in the process of qualifying for nationals, UW-SP
also beat arch-rival UW-La Crosse, the team that ended Point's quest
for a three-peat at the WIAC Championships two weeks ago.
"I felt like we improved over where we had been two weeks ago,"
UW-SP men's coach Rick Witt said. "The front guys ran better. We're
still struggling with our fifth guy, we have to close the gap a little."
Jesse Drake paced the Pointers with a fifth place fmish, covering
the 8,000 meter course in 24:55. Dan Schwam berger wasn't far behind
(7th in 24:59), while Ryan Wenos (12th in 25:07)1 Matt Hayes (18th in
25:17) and Shane Suebring (43rd in 25:57) rounded outthetop five.
While the men's season concludes Saturday i~ Carlisle, Penn., the
women's season came to an end, at regionals.
The Pointers finished seventh with 179 points, The top four teams,
including UW-Oshkosh and UW-La Crosse, qualified for nationals.
Leah Juno Jed the Pointers and finished the 5,000 meter course in
18:05. LisaPisca(2lst in 18:23), Sara Holewinski (312nd in 18:36), Alyssa
Garbe (49th in 18:59) and Maggie Dennewitz (64tq in 19: 16) completed
the scoring for UW-SP.
According to Witt, the Pointer men should challenge for the top
four spots, which would bring some hardware back to campus.
"I think realistically? if we run well, we can get a trophy. At the
beginning of the season, after we lost a lotto graduation, I thought I'd
be happy with the top I 0," Witt said.
Defending National Champion North Central College (Ill.) is the
favorite to repeat after they won the Midwest Reg(onal with 61 points.
"They'd have to not run well for somebody to beat them. They're
that good," Witt said. "It's not beyond the realm of possibility (to beat
North Central), but being in the top four is realisHc."

Hoping to turn around their
game after last year's disappointing season, club President Matthew Kalisiak believes UW-SP has
the experience and depth for success this year.
"We're returning five starters," Kalisiak said, "and we have
a lot ofathletic freshmen. It's still
another rebuilding year, but we' II
do better than last year."

LOWERING YOUR BLOOD CHOLEsTERO
ByAmyMason
fEATURES REPORTER
From the UW-SP
Lifestyle Assistance Office
With all of the nutrition hype, it's hard to discern what information is helpful and what is not. Blood cholesterol has been in the
news, and maintaining a desirable blood cholesterol level reduces
- the risk for coronary heart disease. Cholesterol is a fatty substance
that can be found in the foods we eat as well as in the blood.
Cholesterol is necessary in the body for nerves, cell membranes,
bile production (a substance that helps digest fat) and sex hormones.
Our body manufactures 80 percent of the cholesterol that is needed,
so we don't need to eat a lot of added cholesterol in our diet. Research suggests that high blood cholesterol can be attributed to
high intake of saturated fats, lack of exercise, stress, genetic predisposition, smoking and being overweight.
· Cholesterol is transported throughout the body in the form of
lipoproteins. Low-density lipoproteins (LDL) collect along the arterial walls where plaque develops, which can lead to atherosclerosis.
High Density Lipoproteins, (HDL) "the good kind," pass through
the liver and take cholesterol out of the body.
Here are some tips to remember when choosing foods which
contribute to lower blood cholesterol.
• Read foods labels and buy products with the least amount of
saturated fats.
• Select lean meats, fish and poultry
• Choose low fat dairy products such as skim milk, low fat
cottage cheese and reduced fat cheeses.
Several UW-Stevens Point Tae Kwon Do Club
(TKD) members kicked their way to a first place finish at the 18th annual TaeKwonDo State Champion ship on November 7. T_he event was held at the

Tucked away on Strongs Ave.
in bustling downtown Stevens
Point, one may find the popular
Italian style eatery called
Arbuckles. Offering a multitude of
choices ranging from pizza and
pasta to steaks and sandwiches,
Arbuckles is suitable for most any
informal outing.
The first time that I visited
Arbuckles, I left disappointed .
This was the result ofterrible service. I had ordered the Chicken
Parmesan; after about 20 minutes,
my waitress informed me that she
had forgotten to give me my salad
and that it would be served with
my entree.
At this point, I had drawn two
conclusions. Firstly, whoever was
cooking was not on the ball. Secondly, my waitress was not paying much attention to my table.
Being the slave to tradition
and training that I am, I could do
npthing but angrily munch at my
salad as I watched my pasta grow
colder with every second. The
pasta was about room temperature by the time I got around to it,
but still tasted decent.
My second trip was considerably more pleasant. The service
was fairly good, although I only
ordered the Italian Cheese fries for
Arbuckles Eatery in downtown Stevens Point is a decent choice

fear that multiple courses would
slow my plans for the remainder
of the evening.
The cheese fries are great if
you are into that sort of thing, although more choices of sauces
may be in order.
One thing that I really enjoyed
about . the atmosphere at
Arbuckles was the complete separation between the smoking and
non-smoking sections.
All in alf, I can ' t say that I will
not return to Arbuckles. I take into
account that sometimes accidents
happen, but I will still be leery of
them in the future.

FEATURE ESSAY
The dangers of drinking and driving
By Cheryl Riehle
FEATURED CoLUMNIST
Have you ever thought about what you would do if you found
out your mom and/or dad were injured in a car accident? Or even
worse, killed?
Recently a friend of mine had to deal with that reality. To the
surprise of many, the cause of this traumatic incident was that of a
drunk driver.
About two weeks ago her parents were driving home on the
highway, when out of nowhere a drunk driver slammed into them.
He took the life of her mother and put her dad in the hospital in
critical condition. The driver is still alive.
I just need to ask all of you out there that drink and drive Why? Do you ever think of the consequences that could occur on
behalf of your actions? .
Nothing should be so important that you would risk your own
life. There will always be more alcohol and parties, but there will
only be one of you. "When you're drinking, you '•·e just out having
a good time. You think you're fine to drive or yc-ur friend that only
had a few sips is. You never think about all the consequences that
could occur," Brooklynn Strong said about her reacti<?n to drinking
and driving.
· Is that all worth it? I don't think so. If you're reading this and
you just think 'yeah, yeah, I've heard this lecture many times before," then why don't you wise up. Get a ride from someone who
hasn't been drinking. Please don't take my life, my mom's life or
your own life. It's not worth it.

Washington sharp in action flick Siege Great covers on Garage /
By Nick Katzmarek
FILM CRITIC
One of the best things you can
do to ensure that you'll enjoy a
movie is to go into it thinking that
you'll hate it.
This was basically my feeling
when I sat down to watch The
Siege. I'm not a huge Denzel
Washington or Bruce Willis fan,
so my expectations were a little
low on this one.
However, I left the theatre satisfied that my time had not been
wasted. While Willis' mug appears every five seconds during
the trailer, he has a smallish part
in the movie, and I was pleasantly
surprised at Washington's ability
to keep me interested.
The other nice surprise ~as
seeing that Annette Bening had
such a large role as a CIA agent
working with Washington (who
plays an fBI agent). She is an
impressive actress and her presence is good for the film.
Another pleasant surprise
was seeing Tony Shalhoub (TV's
Wings) in a feature production. He
impresses me1 and he worked well
with Washington.
The film centers around terrorist activity in New York by cells of
Arabs. · And while the subject
could have b~en touchy, director
Ed Zwick makes the real heart of
the film the atrocities that the terrorists (and Americans) suffer at
the hands of jllartial Jaw in New
York.
The action fan is kept in the
film with explosions and sex, but
these factors ~re relegated to the
background ~hile Zwick chooses
to explore m~re character issues
and relation is~ues with Arabs and
Americans.
All in all a good film. It won't
go down as a plassic or probably
garner any nominations, but if you
look at the playlists at theatres,
this on is probably your best bet.

Metallica
Bonnie and Clyde
"Garage Inc."
(1967; Ill min)
One of the greatest gangster
films of all-time, Arthur Penn's
Bonnie and Clyde helped introduce blood and guts violence to
the big screen.
The story follows bank robbers Bonnie Parker (played by
Faye Dunaway) and Clyde Barrow (Warren Beatty) as they drive
around the country spitting in the
face of law enforcement everywhere.
They join their f~iends along
the way (Gene Hackman, Estelle
Parsons and Michael J. Parsons)
and play·peek-a-boo with the police until they're moved down by
a sky full of machine gun fire.
Penn's direction in Bonnie
and Clyde is fantastic and was an
influence for other great directors
like Francis Ford Coppola who
basically copied the film's ending scene in his masterpiece The
Godfather.
Bonnie and Clyde is a classic
one cannot miss viewing.
-Mike Beacom
By Steve Schoemer
MusiC CRITIC
Who knew? Apparently everybody but me. Metallica just released their newest album "Garage
Inc." The album is a double disc
set, 27 songs, that are all cover
tunes.
The first disc contains 11
brand new covers for the band.
The second disc contains all of
their old covers that oldschool
Metallica fans have always loved.
Just a few of the new songs
recorded are "Sabbra Cadabra" by
Black Sabbath, a "metaled" up
and recently released video "Tum
the Page" by Bob Seger, and an
unexpected rendition of Lynyrd
Skynyrd's "Tuesday's Gone." On
this track they have other musicians sitting in such as Jerry
Cantrell of Alice in Chains, and
John Popper of Blues Traveler.
Disc two contains the very first
two cover songs Metallica· ever
recorded, "Garage Days Re-Revisited," several of their favorite Bsides and one-offs, and finally a
four block shot of Motorhead.
I have heard time and time
again that Metallica has become
just another sell-out band that instead of playing what they feel,
they play music that will make it
on the radio.
I bought in to these accusations at first. Then I gave their new
music a chance, and it is actually
quite superior (musically speaking).
The only problem I have with
it is that it isn't the raw, fuel injected sound I associate .,vith
Metallica.
·
This new album is loaded with
adrenaline. And the great thing
about Metallica doing a cover album is that even they are not their
own songs, they take the songs
and play them as if they were. This
album is worth checking out.
