and interior, Sennett said. but "Those doll:trs would not aU have to be raised immediately" for construction to begin. The IC Foundation may piny n key role in securing the funding from the community, Sennett said. The library and computer building is the product of a compromise, 8cnnet1 said. The plan formulated by fom1er NIC President Barry Schuler eight ye.ars ago included clas.sroom and library space, wi1h n S5.8 million price tag nnached.
Faced with the threat of losing accreditation due to limited book•helf space nnd rising enrollment and about seven years of failure to secure funding. NIC nttempted to find less costly nhcrnotivcs, Sennett said. Remodeling of the current library (Lee Hall) originally was proposed, but construction of n nc:w building was agreed upon ofter input from staff and faculty. Bennett said. After the compromise, the library project became twoprongcd. The first is construction of a library and com• puter building. The second prong: remodeling of the current library for needed classroom and office space, Scnocu said. "When we scaled down our request (for library fun· ding), we did not plan for classrooms in the new building." hoping to keep cosu low enough to secure funding from the ugislature, he said. When funding has been securnl for the new building, Bennet! said he will then lobby for lhe S900,000 needed to remodel Lee Hnll and install air conditioning. Although he said he is no1 ready to shoot off fireworks yet, "We'll haven party when it (final funding approval) happens, I can tell you 1ha1." Sennett said.

Pollution, phosphates threaten lakes by Aspen Mountjoy In an aging process caused by a lake filling up with sediment and the resulting increased algae growth, a progression that normally takes thousands of yt'ars is being accelerated by the various forms of non-poinl source pollution that affect La~e Coeur d'Alene, nc, cording 10 NIC chemistry instruc1or Dale Marcy. Various packages introduced in the 1989 Idaho Legislature will, if adopted. pro,·1dc mechanisms designed to control water pollution in Lake Coeur d'Alene and other Idaho lakes and rivers. Non-poinl source pollution is defined as pollution that does not have an immediately ob,ious source. such as a drainage pipe dumping factory wastes into a river. Agricultural wastes. including sediments. fertiliz.crs and pesticides are one form of non-point sourct polluuon 1ha1 affects Lake Coeur D'Alene, said Ken Wright, an e"'•ironmcntal science instructor at NIC. He said another major source is the untreated sewage from la.kc homes with inadequate septic systems. Cht'mically speaking. Wright said. phosphates, nitrogen and polassium arc the main ch~micals t~a1 contribute to the increased algae bloom m an agmg lake. Nilrogen is difficult 10 control, but phosphates occur in fertilizers and laundry detergents. A phosphate ban. which would outlaw the sale oi detergents containing phosphates, is one tool that is being proposed to control water pollution in the Northwest, Marcy said. A phosphate ban being proposed. in Sandpoint by the Clark Fork Coalition is threatened by Senate Bill ~. sponsored by Dean Haagcnson, R-Cocur d'Alene, said Rulh Watkins, the Pend Oreille project director for the Clark Fork Cooli1ion. Bill 294 would mandate a statewide nutrient management plan 10 be developed by the Idaho Department or Health and Welfare by 1992. The bill also s1ops local governments from im-
plcmcnting an)' water quality inana.cmcnt plaiu UD· til the ldnho Dcp1men1 of Health and Wclfarc'1 plan is developed, Watkins said. Since ,here is no funding to dndop such a plan, Watkins sa.id. Bill 29J could put off protecuon of North Idaho lakes for years. A phosphate bon v.ould not ba\C a significant economic impact on Kaygeeco, a local firm that manufactures ldt!.ho Pride, a phosphatc<ontaining laundry dc1ergen1. said co-owner Karl Sackman. "If we have to leave it out, otl\ers will too," be said, adding 1ha1 making a non-phosphate produe1 would not require equipment changeo, ers or other ~nsivc changes. Sackman explained that phosphates arc important in the manufae1urc of detergents because tl\ey soften water and are unequalled in keeping dirty laundry water from resoiling clothes. Other proposed legislation includes a Clean Lakes Act and an anti-degradation package that includes a ground,.'ater protection framework. Mary Lou Reed. D-Coeur d'Alene, is sponsoring the proposed. Clean l..al:es Act in the Senate. The revised version of Senate Bill 1232. scheduled 10 cx,me to a vote this v.eek, wouJd budget S80,000 to the Panhandle Health District to establish an administrative CX>UD· cil composed of 1wo govcmor-appointed ~r~tatives from each of the fi¥e northern counues, ID· eluding at least rwo count)' commissioners. Two additional cx,uncils would function in a.cMsor)' mpacitics. Representatives of lake associations and Indian tribes whose reservations border a lake. would comprise a public ad,·isor)' com.millet.

Bikes out, boats in by Russell Carlberg
The NIC Board of Trus1ecs approv-
ed a recommendation made by Clarence Haught, dean of vocational educaiion, ro 1ermina1c the college's motorcycle repair program ar the end of the current school year. Al the Feb. 23 meeting, Haught cited a continued drop of enrollment in the program and said that all currently enrolled students will receive 1hcir certificate. Haught also recci\•ed board ap· proval to give a portion of the program's equipment 10 a former NIC stu· dent seeking to start his own repair business in town. Haught said he was enthutjnstir about the possibility of adding a marine rcp;iir program 10 replace the mo1orcyclc program. "As the level of activity in the motorcycle industry has declined, the activity of 1hc boating industry ha.~ risen," Haught said. NI C President Robert Bcnnc:u praised the focuhy and students for lhdr concerted effort in ~rsuading the Idaho Lcgislllturc's key Joint Finance and Appropriations Commiucc to approve NIC's library funds request. "If everything goes right. I want to bring Mike Patano (the college's architect) here to the next board meeting and sec when we can start digging," Bennett said. As pan of the deal the college needs to raise $600,000 from w11hin 1hc com· munil)'. Benneu said he is optimistic about community support. " I want 10 tip my ha110 Dr. Bcnneu. This is a monumental achievement," said board member Jack Beebe. The Board also voted 10 spend S15.000 on an asbestos survey recommended by Rollie Jurgens. dean or administration. Jurgens said the only asbestos on campus is in "areas of Liu le human use." such as around boilers. \Omc pipes and telephone tunnels. He said that GTE will not do repair work around the: asbestos. When asked by board Chairman Robert Ely what t'acrly the SIS.000 \urvey "would tell us that we didn ·1 already know." Jurgens replied 1hat all companies require a survey before they "'ill begin cleanup work. The board congratulated history in· s1ruc1or Judith Syhc for her au1horship of a humanities grant that NIC was just awarded President Benncll praised Syhe, saying that gronlS " are 1he nice extra things tha1 allow us to go beyond basic funding." Syltc will be in Washington, D.C., next week to begin the first phase of the gram.
Debatable query posed The dream of the impcnding new library/computer center may finally come true. Many pcss1mis1ic rnculty skeptics at least ore more hopeful now. and NIC 's Prcs,dem Robert Bennet! is pinching himself to make sure he stm 1sn 't just dreaming. It has been a long and rocl,.y road Benneu has been running on in his headlong pursuit to secure financing for the ambitious project. Carrying the tar· nished baton from past-President Barry Schuler, Benne11's leg of the steeplechase for the elusi,e funds had an inauspicious start. Schulcr's original proposal had to be pared down from SS.8 million to a more manage.ible sum and S<'mehow SO· meone had to draw legisla10 ~ aucmion 10 the neab of the communny colleges in the state- a formidable task. In addition, the lawsuit between the Board of Trustees and ASNIC that resulted from the dispute over a special service fee charged 10 students festered studen1/ adminis1ra1ion relation}. It will be in1cres1ing 10 sec what happcn5 10 1hc money in question when the duM fina lly ~ubsides from 1he out-of-court se11lement-i1 (some S279.000) could make a substantial dent in the additional S600.000 necessary 10 sec the library/computer center proJect through to fruition . Thai brings up a question that few seem prepared to Bll'>wer at this point in 1imc-will 1hc S3.S million be enough 10 make the new fncility operational. or will it t:lke another million to ndequatdy equip 11 with library resources and computers? One aspect 1ha1 students should be able to dro,, confidence from is the fact 1hm 1he NIC Computer Curriculum Commi11ce does not plan 10 rob c.~is1ing computer resources to fill the new facility, according to committee member Tom Lyons, ms1ruc1ional media scf\iccs coordinator. Lyons said many a,enues ha,•e been c.~plored to help sol"e this problem: one is to secure more sponsor· ship and industry support from companies like Appk. which is beginning to follow Hewlc11 Packard's lead in donating machines for training pur-
poses; another 1s to r=ew Ille balance of the SIO wer'i. fee now eh.a.rged to Hudcnts taking computer clusc\ to see if it can offset 1ame future budgctuy demands.

But the state legulators in Idaho should be commended for their effons (ho"e"er belated) 10 focus on higher cducnuon needs in this state. Also, Bennett :ind :ill tho c supporting his lobbring effons should be commended. Few of us \\Ould want 10 talc on 1he iob 10 con\lncc Idaho's lawmal..crs th:u the communit) college by the lt1l,.e desperate!~ needed funds.

Pr~idcnt Bennett personifies op· tim,sm and pcrsistenct'. but has been accused or mo, ing 100 quu:kl> or steamrolling IS)UCS. If 1he progress toward construction of the new libr:trI / computer center is hurried without ans\\cnng all the pending questions, 1he success that the adminisLrauon temporarily enjoys ma)' be wTought with de:sccnsion and budget troubles. On the other hand. the fulllre for NIC students looks brighter. If President B.:nnl'tt and the present administrauon can se,: this project through.

Smoking vote: 'no vote' ~i.ncl Editor
I would like to respond to the recent "smok.mg vote" conducted at the SUB. Am. the sign b> the ballot bo~ was m1Sleadmg. It implied that ii 'yes' vote would result m a ban on unol.mg on campus. The propo,41 10 be considered by 1he Bonr~ ~r Trw.tttS sutes "In w interest of the health of studenu, \lllff and the pubhc, 11 1i the policy of the North Idaho College Board of Trustees that smoking ,snot allowed within ll.Dy building or \elude owned by orth Idaho College." The proposal hiu not gone before the College Senate for a ,ote. It 1s on the March 16 mc:cung agenda. It would limit smol.ing 10 ou1-of-doors and only in pri,ate seh1cles. Second. th~ sign should no1 have used the word ''vote." It would h.ive been more appropriate to take a poll to get iQmc idea of how the student popul.111on felt about the LSSUe. A "\·01e" is a democrauc proc:.e:u with cenam restncuon, ,uch a.s bemg a member of the eligible ,ot.ing populauon, having a single vote, and having 1he word or a SUlllill31Y of the intended Jtgjs!au,c measure pnntcd on the ballot. As with ASNIC rcpr~nt.ati, e elections or public grneral elections, I would have expected someone "v0ting" on this smoking issue 10 have shown bu or her student ID to a ballot box attender.

Smoke-free campus causes controversy rainee turk
The Nonh Idaho College Senate is faced with a conLroversial decision as to whether smoking should be banned or allowed on campus. The nonsmoking proposal will be voted on in March, and either way it will affect a large group of stud.en ts and faculty if it is a strict yes or no decision. Although the latest trend is a "smoke-free" environment, neither a firm agreement or disagree• ment with the propos.al can be fully supponed. Smokers feel their rights are being violated; after
aJJ, smoking is not a crime. Non-smokers feel their health is being negatively affected; after all, why should they also experience the side effects of a smoker's bad habit? A smoker focuses on the discomfon caused by being denied a cigarette, while a non-s:moker focuses on the disco:mfon caused by the presence of smoke. Smokers have a choice as to whether they would like to inhale smoke or not, and, if another smoker is in their presence, the smoke is unlikely to cause them discomfon. However, if a smoker chooses to smoke in the presence of a non-smoker, a non-smoker will be inhaling smoke with li11le or no choice other than 10 offend the smoker and ask hlm/her 10 extinguish the cigarc11e. A smoker may argue that a non-smoker could leave or avoid the area, but this is unfair since
a smoker is rarely, if ever, forced 10 make this choice. Non-smokers do not impose on smokers, and smokers should not impose on non-smokers. Smoking is a known cause of lung cancer, not to mention emphysema, asthma and binh defects. If a person chooses to inflict such things upon bis/her heal th, fine. But inflicting it upon others is unfair. For these heAlth reasons, especially, smoking should be aJJowed only in private dorm rooms or outSide the campus buildings. By aJlowing it in the privacy of a smoker's dorm room or in the outdoors, smoke rs can find relief, and non-smokers will not be imposed upon.

Referee makes final call regarding prlntable prose by Chad Klinger Thu I\ an effort to arb1tr11le a peaceful settlement to the Pubic Wors that began four 1SSucs ago with yOUJ publicolion of CoUecn Perron 's piece featuring a genital-scratching food ,naichcr.

To be sure, of course, when a writer boldly broachcs mdlcaUy new subject mailer, there had better be some sociully redeeming purpose, as there was when Jon.1thn.n Swift proposed lhnt the 18th century Irish cannibalize their own infants. What disturbs Pcrron's critics, I imagine, is thot thcycan't find the point that is being served by her apparent lack of taste. Perhaps Perron's pictt deserves closer scrutiny. First, it should be understood that she wn.s expressly pointing out that the presence of pubic hair at the threshhold of a refrigerator is indeed vulgar; further, I bclicvc she wns offering up this phcnomenoo as 3 hyperbolic representation of disgusting, vexing little habits that most of us have and which we ought to forswear for the sake of people we live with. So for, I discern no difference between her sensibility and that of Ross and McCaw, and therefore think she need not be villified as morally deficient. Nevcnhelcss, she did err in assuming that such a unique example was palatable to the general public in a public forum. And you, dear editor, erred in not recognizing !.hat. But the sin, in my mind, is more of an "indiscretion'' than a full-scale assault on standards of decency. Your error in allowing it to reach print resulted in embarrmment, but not shame. I have come to the point of au this: I am glad you published Perroo's feature, 001 because I felt enriched by it per sc, but because I have been edified by the eruulng debate. Standards of wte 11.re import.ant, and 1t is vital to the health of our society 1h111 we fret over the gray areas, as Dr. Ross, Ms. McCaw and Mr. Williams have done. I would prefer, of course, that they recognize their own vulnerabilities and do their fretting with more humility. but I do praise their efforts nonetheless. A5 for your decision 10 prin t the offending piece: you exercised a judgment, and it proved to be wrong; however, you should not be afraid to make similar close calls in the future. We depend on it: surely public debate is more important t.han public relations.

Children's Village to house abused children by Darrel Beehner
Sometimes dreams do come 1rue \\'ilh I.he help of North Idaho College, area busirte1.SCS and local citruns, lhe dreams of Dr. Anne Fox and the dreams of abused and neglected children are becoming a re.a.lily.

The CCC's plan is to buy more PCs. with three sources for NIC to use, Nelson said: Source I-the general college fund in the college budget, money from taxpayers. students and the state: Source 2-to con-

The CCC will have three meetings, each about three hours long, to decide how to get more PCs, Nelson said. The first of the three meetings to decide how to get more PCs on campus and for each division or dc~runent to put in a request to buy equipment and to submit budget requests was Feb. 23, Nelson said.

For his part. Green said be did 001 in-
itiolly deem himself an author. His wri1ing. however. soon proved otherwise. "When I staned. I didn't perceive myself os a writer." Green said. Whal followed were two books about rock climbing. o sport Green has long pursued. He wrotc Idaho Rock in 1987. ''It's a climber's guide 10 the Sandpoint area and Selkirk Mountains," Green explained. Bugaboo Rock came next, a similar guide to a climbing spot in British Columbia. Green bas also conlributed to spons magazines. He worked free-lance, because few magazine writers work under contrac1, Green said. "It's tough 10 get established freelancing," he said. He cited his background in journalism as ao advantage:. "There's a real demand for people who have: editing and good writing skills," Green said. Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain) and Ernest Hemingway had experience workmg for newspapers, he: noted. Preparation for public.ation can involve numerous rewrites. Johnson said she: revised one or her stories about seven times. h can demand C)(CfUtiating detail, which makes Writer's Market especially valualble, according to Hohman. However, she: said, publication g~ beyond these rudiments. "This is the tip or the iceberg," she said. ''The rest or it is what makes you wake up in the middle or the night with that thing in your head."

The journey begins as WilUam Clark learns or lhe death or Mcriwelhcr Lewis, lhree years after they plied lhc wilderness together.

Poetry Corner THE TRAIN
ARIZONA APRIL
Five minutes before the old clock chimed I would wake to listen in that early darkness For the sound of the coal train at the mile-away crossing Where my sister and I once laid our nickles on the rails To sec if the Indian would ride the buffaloBut he never djd.
Shade-splashed arroyo sand Cradles out young nesh Beneath yellow palo verde lace. Shag-barked ironwood roots Thrust and tangle impatiently Through the dry clay bank Near our sun-bleacrung clothes. We lie close-gathered, oblivious To silver-spined choUa or Colse-creeping sand gourds. Cacrus wrens caJJ from nests In creamy-crowned saguaros But our ears hear only the other's Hean-beat advance/ retreat duel. Sun slides down bright-blazing blue, Theo pales to late evening quail calls, And still we have not said All we had come 10 say.
Winter nights, the whistle sounded clearArrowing through black and bare still frozen branches Of sugar maple, oak and aspen to my window And I held my breath, listerung for the icy tinkle Of the frost swirls slivering at the suddeot sharpnessBut they never did . lo August, the stirring of birds masked The crossing warning that seemed 10 noat and drift Slowly away from the old farm house on the hill And my fading edge of sleep thought that surel y tomorrow I'd rise early enough to catch the summer trai n soundBut I never did.

Rants, raves and reviews
Acceptance stifles progressive new styles by Russell Carlberg How many rimes have you heard the Bc111les or the Rolling Stones and though!, "This is good'' even when you 're not in 1hc mood for hearing them? Have you ever wondered how a band can grow 10 be accepted by just about everybody and their Uncle Jcppie and still maintain a dis1inc1ivc sound? 1 don't lmow if there is any answer 10 tha1 question except the obvious fact that most music that survives and still receives any airplay after all these years had some1hing different to offer at the rime of its release than the standard pop garbagcof1heday. And lei's be honest. 1ha1 something different isn't strictly confined to music. It's the whole image and concept thing. Who can hear "Lucy in 1he Sky with Diamonds" without thinking of John Lenno,. and Paul McCanney riding aroung in Lennon's nowcr-festooned Roll s u1king more rhon just an automobile trip? Or. can you imagine hearing "Satisfaction' ' by the Rolling Stones wi1hou1 seeing Keith Richards, from 1cc1h absent, boulc of Jack Daniels 111 hand. crashed on n couch next to an anemic Mkk Jagger? But. hey, this i~ all pmty normal nnd ma111strcam now isn't it1 What nbou1 1he new stuff1 Will any of i1 s1gnnl a new Sl)•le 1h31 everybody will be hoppin' to1 Ltt's ccnainly hope n's no1 Bon Jov1, Poison- who look like trashy pros1ilu1cs with male appendages-or any of that other loud garbage played by :tilcovered guys in old blue jeans. Ho" c.~ccssively boring. The only place Heavy Metal belongs is in 1hc empty space of o hc.adbanger's head. Also, s.ay your prayers 1ha1 we may all be spared from another George Michael "Father Figure" (read: Child Molester) song. In fact, when you think about it. there is so much music our in the marketplace 1ha1 a few groups or styles will probably never dominate music again. Within 1he world of an there is music. Within the world of music rbere arc many different genres, from classical to rock and roll. Inside rock and roll there arc many sub-genres that appeal to a wide variety of artists and liscencrs olikc. Besides Hea,ry Me1al. which I will call the "Subhuman Sub-Genre" or, more simply put, "Proof of 1he Missing Link Sub-Genre," there is 1he punk genre. disco, rockabilly, industrial noise. rap, new wave, etc., etc.. you gel 1be idea. Please forgive me for forgeuing 1be North Idaho Genre. This genre consists of one-half "music" and one-half image. First, you need a Bryan Adams song or some incredibly h)'J)OCritical Heavy Metal slow song abou1 God. Se· cond, you need a 4ic4 pick-up complete with gun rack and a car sterc0 that loudly announces your musical "taste." Third, you need 10 wear ions of denim,

shannon hayward ·~
The end of February always seems to spark a great deal of interest in the arrival of spring to individuals who live in a region that experiences snowy winters. They begin 10 feel anxious for wanner weather. They feel it has been cold long enough and it's time for the snow 10 melt. I believe the ap· propriate term is "cabin fe,•er." Like most other people, 1 have experienced extreme cabin fever myself this winter. Maybe it's because I haven't skied as much as I would have liked to this year-like not at all. Or maybe it's because I spent a lot of time in the house over Christmas break with a very active 4-year-old, shoveling snow every day while managing 10 barrel down Cherry Hill on a sled''Calvin and Hobbes" style-to break the monotony. Bu, the clincher for me, I think, were the three days off from school during the "Artie Chill"
That was it for me. I was read y for spring and its splendor. And I was ready for it now! The good thing about cabin fever, is it eventually leads co another ill, known ~ "spring fever." That~s when I put away the little-used snow skis arid much-used sweaters and get ou, the bicycles and shons. Spring training is positive aspect of spring, because it heralds wha1 is up ahead. Baseball! While I am not a sports nut by any means, I do have my fa,·oriteS and baseball is one of t.bcm. It's just so "Americanisb." I have attended countless slow pitch softball games and 1oumamcn1s in my da)' but never bad experienced a real, live professional baseball game-until Memorial weekend of 1988. The Seattle Mariners were hosting the New York Yankees, who I happen to favor. I' II admit my first impression of the King Dome was "0000 ... ugly." How un-Amcrican, J thought, 10 play the traditional game of baseball
under a big, ugly dome. But after emerging from an across-the-street restaurant before the game in a downpour, 1hat big, ugly dome began 10 look very appealing 10 me. Our group's first s1-0p was the box seat level to sec a friend who worked there-the place where all lhe "rii.zy'' people go. It was all glassed-in with tables of fancy hors d'oeuvres and cocktails and a television on each table to view the g.ame.
'While up in lhe "box," the Mariners hit a grand slam and I wasn't even in the crowd to hoop and boUer and feel the excitement, regardless of the fact I was rooting for Lhe Yankees. What an outrage! That was no way to watch a baseball game. 1 wanted 10 get down in the crowd-quick-with my box of popcorn and my beer. That's where I fit in.
So down we went, to the "normal" seating, and kept on rooting for the Yankees. We got our fill of peanuts and Cracker Jacks, did "the wave," I.he Se"\ en th-inning streteh and sang ' 'Take Me Out to the Ballgame.'' I'm looking forward to a repeat performance this Memorial "'eekend, School will be O\'er and I "'ill have graduated. The Mariners are once again hosting the Yankees. Somehow, it helps to case the suffering of all the aches and pains of "cabin fever."

Expected to replace Proposition 48 in 1991
Proposition 42 effects t,y Brian Walker
Athletically speaking, junior colleges, such as Nonh Idaho, oft.en are affected by decisions of the NCAA. Proposition 42, ,vhich tightens academic standards for incoming freshmen athletes, is one case, according to some. Under Proposition 42. student-athletes must score at least 700 out of 1,600 point.s 00 the SAT or IS out of 36 on the ACT 1o be dig:iblc for NCAA athletic scholar!hips. They must also havc aclueved a1 least a 2.0GPA in a high school core curriculum of l I subject.s.

"Great playen coming out of high school with Proposition 48 are still going to big Division I schools.•· NlC v,omcn 's basketball co-coach Vic Woodward said it is difficul1 for him to foresee any changes to his program due to lack of experience with Proposition 48 athletes. Many say the effect of Proposition 42 will bring in more athletes to junior college, but education is top priority. " It gives us a better opporrunicy 10 recruit, but if they can't be a college student, they can't be a college athlete," NIC baseball Head Coach Jack Bloxom said. NIC men's and women's head uack coach Rob CoMer said the proposi1ion will cause him more difflcull)' recruiting the stable academic s1udcn1-athle1c. " It's going to hinder me getting the 3.8 student, but at the same time I' m 001 really interested in junior colleges getting the reputation for ha\'ing the less advanad SIU· dent," Conner said. " Everyone descn-es a chance." NI C volleyball coach Bm Taylor said Ile is conccrncd ..; th S1udm1-a.thlctes planning to advance 10 universities.

Cardinals want win by Craig Bruce The NlC men's basketball team ended their season with a dccish·e I03-77 victory over Ricks College on Saturday. before a home crowd of 1,500. The Cards blasted ahead of Ricks in the second half, scoring 63 points. The Cardinals also scored a big victory over Colorado Northwestern Communiry College on Feb. IS. ~ven Cardinals scored in double figures in the 133~5 rout. CNCC dropped lo 0-16 in confer~ play with the loss. while NIC climbed to 9-7. On Thursday. Feb. 16, the team lost to the College of Eastern Utah in a game marked by 1echnicnl fouls on NIC's Patrick Plantier and Mario Jackson. CEU convened the fouls into points and won the game, SJ-SO. The Cardinals head nc.-o to the Region JS Tournament, to be held March 2-4 in T"in Falls. Since the team is currently seeded fourth. they will play the fifth place team in the first round of the tourney. "There are currently three or fou'r teams righting for fifth place." Coach Rolly Williams said. He added that it didn' t matter which team clinched the fifth spot.
Williams said that the College of Southern Idaho is probably the biggest challenge 10 NlC. CSI has only one loss in kague play, but tlw loss came against the Cardinals. "CSI has a well-balanced team and an cxctllent bench," Williams said. "They have lot's of people who can hurt you." But Williams added that the Cardinal bench was also strong, as evidenced by Ramon Muldrow coming off the bench 10 lead NlC in scoring against CNCC. "\Ve have a very capable team,•· Williams said. "We're capable of beating anyone when we're playing well." Williams also said 1h01 the Cardinals could have won more league games. NI C is 10-8 in league play and 22-9 O\"erall. "We were less consistent in the league than out." he said. "but the caliber of compctitioo is tougher in the league." Williams also has high expectations about the upcoming tournament. "I don' t think anyone enters n tourorunent with less expectations lhwi winning," he said. "We're not going down just 10 compete or participate." Men's Baahlb1JI:

Indoor season serves as spring foundation by Brian Walker Alth ough they occur al different time,. and places. spring training in baseball, pre· season in football. e.,hibuion gnmcs in basketball and the North Idaho indoor track season all share the same purpo,cprcparing a team for 1hc upcoming season. " We're really gearing things for the outdoor season and !:lying a foundation for the spring," first-yC11r Head Coach Rob Conner said. "We want to find out where we arc at as far as conditioning." Conner said the recent weather has impeded the practice sessions and meets of the early season. He said a meet :11 Eastern Washington was cancelled. The team didn ·1 compete in a second Univcrsit)' of Idaho meet due to poor road condilions. "There's no sense injuring someone t:J'Y· in& to run hard in snow," he said of practices. " \Ve need to get out, but run easy." Conner said the team is small in quaoti· 1y, but "has quality in all areas." NIC competed in the first scheduled U of I meet Feb. 11.

Baseball Cards ready by Darrel Beehner The North Idaho College baseball players are hoping for some divine in1crven1ion as far as the weather is concerned in prcparaLion for their season opener against Columbia Basin at NIC on March 11.
Cardinal baseball coach Jack Bloxom said the re«nt weather has hampered the team ·s ability 10 practic-c outdoors. "Typically this time of year we're getring ready to get outside," Bloxom said. " The year before last we were out Feb. 6. lllSI year we 14ere out on the field on Feb. 20, so n:gardlcss of what hnppcns we're going to be delayed this year from what 14C have been in the last couple of years." So what can the Cardinal fans do to help? "Well. I'd like the s1udcn1 body to pray for sunshine and wann rain, but I don't think il would help,'' Bloxom said. In spite of the fact that the ,.u ther is making outdoor practices nearly impossible, BlOJtom said the team is progressing wcD with workouts being held in the "tunnel" in the wrestling room. "h's too early 10 tell on the pitching. because we just this week started throwing bud and throwin& the breaking pitches and Clln'C balls.'' Blmom said, ''bu I I think ~ 'vc come • loag way as far as bitting."
This year's Cardinals have only two returning full-rime sta.ners. Jiison Altrogge. a second baseman who 14'3S the Card's leading lliner last year as a freshman, and Lloyd Scroggins. a third baseman "ho led the team in home runs and runs batted in (RBIs) last year. Mike Meadows. a p:m -Lime starter last year. will be returning this year to his position as cat· cher, and on the mound the Cards hB\C three returning leucrmco-Greg Kessler, who finished the season with a S-3 record last year. Chad Smith, who finished with a 2-2 record and Jim Berry, who. in limited appearances, finished wi1h one win and no losses. Over lhc last three years, the Cards ha\ c compiled a record of 90-37, and Bloxom said last year's 32-11 fmish is a school record. But despite the good finishes, lC has yet to win the big one. " We have been very successful the last three years. We'\·e bad great records and get into the rcgiolllll 1oumamcn1 ever)' year and just come within a game away of the damned th.ing," BIOJtom said. " We just haven't done what we have had lo do to win lhe regional championship. "I'm 001 going 10 prcdic:: a win-loss record this year." Blo:icom said. "but I think we have gOt enough talent that, with improvement. we can rompete with anybody we play. It ·s just a matter of :;et· ting it together ...

''The land-they ain"t making ii no more." Mark Twain's quote opened "Hik· ing in the Inland North11.cs1."' a slide show sponsored by the KOOttnai Environmental Alliance (KEA) and the Student Education and Awareness League (SEAL) February 23 at NIC. Rich Landers, Outdoor Editor for the Spokesman Revie11. and a member of the Spokane Mountaineer,, presented the slide show. much of which was drawn from "100 Hikes in the Inland Northwest", published by the Seaule Mountaineers. "There are 16 million acres of nauonal fort.11, 2 million acres of nauonal parks and recreation areas and 6 million acres of of• nc1a1Jy designated or prol)OSed wilderness area 1n eastern Washington, Idaho and western Monuina." Landers said. "but, for cumple in the Colville Nauonal Forest Plan, not one mile of n~ trajl is projc:ctcd ,n a 1s.ye3r plan. " Four endangered species make their homes in this area, Landcri said, including the mounuun caribou. the bald eagle, the griuly bear and the peregrine falcon No111mlis1s hope to connrm sightings of timber wolv~ in the area, Landen aid, which arc also on the endangered species 1!11. Osprey&and coyotes arc not cndangcml, eon rrary 10 the spccula11ons or a

Landen said I.he book detailing t.rails is an effort to gain ··more friends'' for the wild areas. The idea of publicizing wilderness areas. rather than keq,ing q11ic1 about them, caused contrO\'crsy within the Mountaineer's group, but the)" dtcided 10 "'ork at educating patential users about ecologically sound ways of being in tbe 1J.ildemcss, he said. Lander's slide show included humorous suggcHions for proper use of the wilderness, including "flaggmg a S(luirrel hole (for the dispasal of human wastc)lhis is the nuclear waste theory of wildcrneu sanitation-let someone else take ca.re or the problem." Campe~ not 11.aoting 10 dump all that on the S(lumels should dig a small hole for 11,a.ste thC)' ..;11 not ca.ti) out 11.ith them, Landers said.
