Alcohol awareness week set The week of Oct. I S-21, has been designated National Collegiate Alcohol Awareness Week. The N.C.A.A.W.'s primary goal is to worl: toward reducing the misuse of alcohol by educating students about alcohol and alcohol abuse, according to Robert Newell, academic adviser. This year special emphasis will be placed on achieving broader participation on the part of faculty and students, Newell said. Newell said he hopes faculty members will incorporate alcohol related topics during classes. Some ideas might be lhc effects of nlcohol on the body in a biology class or the study of the Prohibition Era ror history class.

Don't blow it, Joe The presidency. IL is the single most important and influential position that can be obtained in this country. It is also the single most important and influential position that can be obtained by a student on this campus. Unfortunately, the current president of the Associated Students of North Idaho College, Joe Newman, doesn't seem to appreciate that fact. In a recent interview pertaining to the botched ASNI C elections, Newman made repeated derogatory reference\ (on tape) toward the ASNIC vice prcsidem 's eth nic backl'round and gender. The Sentinel cho&c not to print Newmon 's quote~ out of respect for his position and respect for the person who was the object of his criticism. While it i~ true that Vice Prc,idcnt Elia11e \Vilches-Pena has made some mislll~c.\, the comments 111ndc by the ASNIC president were 1otnlly unwarranted, unprofessional und irresponsible. Out the irrcsponsiblity doesn't stop there. 011 Oct. 21, mcmbcrb of the five Idaho stntc-fund ed colleges will meet at NIC to participate in the fi rst official meeting of the rcorgani led Idaho Student Lobby. Although the I L i~ probably the most important event that has taken place or will take place at NIC thi )'CM, Newman aid he has opted not 10 participate in the meeting so that he may instead participate in a hunting expedition. There eems 10 be a bit of a priority problem here that Newman would be wise In Slfaightening out. A a criminal justice major and pan-time employee of the O bum Police Department. Newman

needs 10 learn the value or good public relations, fairness and equality. The way in which he handles his position and rcsponsiblities at NIC will have a substantial impact on the way he conductS himself in his role as a public servant when he leaves this institution. With the reputation the Aryan Nations have given 10 North Idaho, NIC needs 10 go beyond the expected norm in its stand on fairness and equality. Newman could be a fair and impanial prc~idcnt-provided there were no females or minorities on the campu~. The actions or Newman arc a direct refl ection on the students, facu lty and admrniwation of NIC and shouldn't be taken lightly. The question that need\ to be asked is: " h thi\ rl!u/ll• the per ~on the midcnl\ of NIC w,1nt 10 rcprnscnt them?"

Athletes, students share bonds david

gunter ~Finally there is something that the average GPA-conscious college student has shared in common with professional athletes. The shared bond is phenomenon known as "hilling the wall." For athletes, the wall represents that point where the individual has given every ounce of energy, gone beyond any rational expectation of endurance and mu11 finish some physical challenge on sheer will power. The academic student approaches this moment of truth in the final semester of earning n college degree. There is a frightening sense of fullness inside the head, a robotic marching to-and-fro from home to car to class and back again as the student ~tumbles weakly for the finish line. Coed or corncrback. boxer or bookworm, the glnled look in the eyes says it all: These people hove hit the wnll. There ure two fundarnemnl reasons why the col-

lege student experiences this uncomfortable circumstances. The first has 10 do with the brain functions. Your brain-as you have al .... ays been told-i.s like a computer. And not a very good one at that. Your memory, then, Y.Ould be similar 10 hard disk. Nothing fancy; say, 20 megabytes, or so.

These news items made the front pages in 1976 and 1970 respectively. Bui hold your breath. Borh

of rhesi> inridents C)('Olrrro on Friday rhe /Jrh. Friday the 13th always has a sequel. The fateful day hit us in January this year. and now it's back: Oct . 13. the day before a full moon. no less. Down through history, 1hc notion of bad luck on Friday the 13th has been substan1ia1ed. In April of 1928, a dance hall in West Plains, Mo.. erupted in flames on that day, killing 40 people inside. On Dec. 13, I 957, an earthquake destroyed an entire village in western Iran. On Oct. 13, 1972, an East German airliner crashed near Moscow. killing 176 passengers. Perhaps, the most com-incing insWIC'C of the day's _misfortune happened on Feb. !3, 1981, in Louisville, Ky. Early that Friday morning, the townspeople

noticed a tremor Ill the eanh. Then, IS square blocl.$ of their sewer S}Stem exploded. A number of th~e people, in spite of their noted lack of credibility. tried 10 convince the citiunry that the Friday 13 jinx caused the day's dCSttUction. Once these city poliliciaru were quieted do~n. more rational explanations emerged. "Fire Chief Ulfl)' F. Bonnafon sald w-htt he had suspected a 'foreign' material dumped tnto the sewers-either accidentally or deliberately-had caused the explosions. which l.nocl.ed people out of bed, ripped gaping boles in Lhe sueet and t()S.S_cd manhole covers in I he air.•' the Coeur d'Alene Prm reported. The SO-C'alled foreign material (a.k.a. chemicals) flowed into a communal v. ater supply when lhe Metropolitan Sc"' er District crew in Louisville divened all of lhc city's untreated scv.'8ge into lhe Ohio River. Apparently, another superstition held sway among the city leaders; name!), that downriver residents could fashion divining rods and locate Olher sources of water. The Louis,illc incident brings out an imponant aspccl of Friday the 13th. II illust.nue:s tv.o views toward lhe idea of bad luck on a certain da)•. Rationalists, like tbe Louisville fire chief, consider Friday a 24-hour time interval indistinct from other 24-hour time intervals except in name (i1's named after the Nor~ goddess Freya). Rationalists smug1>· remind everyone around them t.ha1 mi.sJonune abound5 every day of the week. They are best rccognizcd as news reporters. Other people also refute Lhe supemitioa of bad tuck on Frida} the 13th. Moslcms actually bold C'\~ Friday sacred-which, upon reflection, is the typical

u11nude of ~o rkin11 Americans. Relig1ou1ty, though, Mo hammedan_s marl. rridoy as lheir sabbath and deem tl "pccially lucky. Some people, however, behcve In the bad tuck or that date. They Include Turks, the French, llalian, and )Orne Latin races. Chri.stian,s approached 1hu supentition from a somewhat skewed vantage point. Many or them remembered Friday as the day of Chnst 's crucifixion and considered it cursed. Thir· teen became an unlucky number because 12 disciples and Christ attended the Last Supper. These correla· uons combined to make a two-fold malediction on Friday the 13th. From a different perspective, some Christian monks deemed the day unlucky because ii belong· ed to the Norse goddess Freya. They objcc1cd less to her deity than to her femininity; some men just become chauvanisu, even lOward goddesses, after living alone too long. The monks also condemned 13 because that number of months comprises the pagan lunar year. Constantine, Christian emperor of Rome in chc fourth century, threw a damper on 1he entire superstition. He declared the Friday or Christ's c:rucifu:ion a sacred holiday (Good Friday), mak· ing predictions of bad luck akin to heresy. Anyone who can uruavd the whole tangle of belief and misbclief about Friday !he 131h probably bas a good cbaoce of outsmarting the evil spiriu al work on that day. For lhe rest of us, remn.a.ois of !he sal1 we toss °""r our shoulder will look like dandruff; the lucky rabbit's foot "'e keep in our pocket will begin to rot; and walking on lhe ouiside of a ladder will lead us into the path or an oncoming bus.

Hunting prospects prowl for prizes A hunter's perspective

An official's perspective by Jennifer Hutchins Hu n1ing is best when the hun1ers prefer nor to hum, is a paradox reveal· cd by Paul Hanna, regional wildlife manager of the Deparlment of Fish and Game. The seasons currently open in the Northern Panhandle arc elk, grouse. bear, deer and mountain lion. Goose season opens Saturday, and duck season opens Oct.21. The wca1hcr condilions in which mos1 elk arc: killed arc when i1's hot and dry, which are the conditions most people don'1 likc to hun1 in. I Jonna said. Also, ii h ca~icr to 1rnck elk after a heavy snowfall, he said.

Forest Service pulS out a travel map that tells which roads are opened and closed. Maps can be picked up at the Forest Service. the Dcpartmcni of Fish and Game and at any ranger districts in the area. The best spolS to hunt elk in the Northern Panhandle arc Units 4. 6 and 7. the Coeur d'Alene drainage, St. Joe, and Unit 6 in 1hc Clearwa1er area. Specific loca1ions or the units can be found in 1he hun1crs· regulations. wh ich can be ob1aincd at the Ocpanment of Fish and Ga me. Hunters arc advised 10 cany a copy o ( the regulations when l1Un1ing.

by Kristy Jellesed Hunting season is here again, and Nonh Idaho College sophomore Rich Williams said he is ready for it. "Huniing is one of the oldes1 ac· tivitics practiced by mankind. Participaling in it allows one to go back to some or their most basic instincts," Williams said. Williams has been huniing since he was 8 years old, using a Ruger M-77, a .270 caliber rine with a strnight 4X Leupold \cope. Williams. from Troy, Mont., smd 1hc bcs1 time to go hunting is in the morn ing and evening. If hu n1in[l for el k, William~~ugg~t, going to :1remote a~a

after a fresh snow or while ii 's raining. If hunting for deer, rainy weather is 1hc best 1imc, Williams said. Whitetail deer can be found on low land or in ri\er or creek bottoms, but mule deer can be found in the high rocky areas that arc steep, he said. Many big game spcoes exist in 1he area, including deer, bear. elk, pronghorn antelope, moo•c. caribou and " ild boar. but William~ \aid he prefers to hun t deer, l:>ear and clJ...

Hunting signs not simple as toilet paper linette freeman I lunting i a fa,•oritc pastime of many North Idahoans, but for those who don't hunt, translating the communications that go on in the hunting circle~ can be a bit difficult. I think one of the best things about hunting i the different breed of people the sport attracts. Most hunt,m; are cut out of the same cloth. They are fanatics. Hunters have thei r own language and dress eodc. Usually, only hunters can decipher the speech and actions of each other. Luckily, I am a daughter and a niece of hunters so I have a little translating experience:. For example, when riding in the cab of a pickup with a hunter there are certain sounds and signs which one must familiarize oneself with. When the hunter begins 10 slap the ceiling of the pickup cab and chant "Oooh, oooh, oooh" this means ... / ha1>e to grab the CB mike and shout

"Deer!" or ''Elk!'' 10 his hunting partner in the trailing pickup.

Another ~ign ,, hich no n-hunt mg pa\\Cngcr\ mu~t fnmiliari2c themsclv~ with is the brisk snap· ping of lingers also accompa nied "' ith \e\eral oooh, oooh. oooh's. Tht> means ... " J/and me the b111oc11lars J O I can see if that JpOt on the neighboring mountain is actually an anrmal " A third and equally fascinating ge!i ture o f hunter~ is the ,•igorous slapping o f the back of the bench ~at in the pickup. This means... ' 'Gun, Gun, Gun! That spot on that yonder mountain is an animal!'· That's another thing about hunters. When they sa)', "I saw an animal," what they really mean is "I saw what might possibly have been an animal." When the average non-hunter says, '' l se-t an animal." they mean they saw an animal that was probabl>· only a maximum of 300 feet a"ay. Hu nters look for dark spots lhat mo"e OD Dear· by mountains. I have always \\Oodcred why Lhcy c,,cn bother. Seriously, by the time lhey park the truck, climb o,,cr the two mountains betv.een them and where they sa" the moving spot, the animal will be long gone. Hunters also ha\"t their O\\n terminology for \'arious hunting related "ords. To a normal per· son "poop" is poop but to a hunter it is "sign." Another one is body odor-to a bunter it is ''srent."

Another quuk of hunter~1s the length~ they will go LO blend in wi th the environment. One o f the

main i.,ays hunte r) blend in with the environment through their wardrobe.

During hunting se-ason the main colors radiating from a hunter's closet arc camouflage green, and browns and the 1rad11ional orange. They garb themsch es 1n camouflage pants, t·shirts, Jackm and Lhen an orange hat. The orange pu.ul~ me- I mean, don't deer see orange? Another thing hunters Lr)' to d1sguLSe is their scent. The more fanatical on~ of the bunch douse themselves with elk/ deer urine in order to make them hard 10 smeU. HUH? This pracuct is not advantageous when hunung in a group because lhe hunters must travel in such a way that they arc not down wind from one another. Evei, year l hear wives complaining about their vacant husbands, but I have never heard a wife yet who "'ants 10 join her spouse-which under the circumstances is completely understandable ln closing, I would like to share my mos1 fa"oritc sign in t.be hunting communication guide ("'hich, by lhe way, is what you are reading right nO\\). When a hunter is slowly walking away from the hunting camp with c,eryt.hing from lhe waist down tightly clutched it means ... " Hey...did we remember the toilet paper?"

Eyes open to domestic violence by Donna Wood

Dispelling lhe mYths and creating public awareness and legislation to recognize domestic violence as a crime-a crime that will not be tolerated-is the goal or Len Mattei, reprcsenlaLive 10 the State Council on Domestic: Violence. The North Idaho Alliance for Women in conjwnction with the American or Women in Community and Junior Colleges held its second "Eye Opener" brcakrast talk Sept. 21 . fhe topic was "Dnmestic Violence: the M)'lhs, 1he Facts, the Crime," presented by Mauei. Mattei said her purpose is to "debunk myths chat get in the way o( holdh,g men accountable. History has shown us that violence in 1he home is accepted. and is cultural heriLage; women and children were property like goats and sheep," she said. "It wasn't too long ago 1ha1 the law allowed a man 10 beat his wire and children as long as he used a stick 1hat was 110 bigger around thn1 his thumb," M1111ei said. According 10 Mauei. three myths or this society arc: "She pro"oked it or she osked for it." The reality is no one asks to get beaten up; no one dcser\lCS to get beaten up, Mauei said. "Women arc masochistic. tr they really wanted 10 end the violence, they'd leave or seek ouuldc help." The reah1y is thnt baucred women race enormous pressure5o to susrnin on nbu~lve relationship because or economic dependency, physlcnl and or emotional lies, the threat or increased violence or the social belier that they d,,erve it or 1hey'd leave, Mnucl said.

" ... the law allowed a man to beat his wife as long as he used a stick 110 bigger around than his thumb." "1)0111c~1ic violence is a privntc rnmily mailer. The bc,t thing to do for the family is to not lnterfc1c." The rcJh· l)' is no one would argue \\hcthcr a man who n,'\t ,. \ n strunger in public should be held rc,Spansiblc lo1 ,h... act, Mnuei )nid. ''Why doesn't the same assault, in pri\lacy, merit a ~imllar rcs1)()nSc from society? Why is the privac)' or the net commilled on someone who is not o stranger somehow different? Assault is a crime I" Mallci said.

Mauci believes things arc beginning to move in the right direction. Some court and law systems nationwide are changing to protect battered women and children. Texas. for example, has adop1ed a pro-arrest policy that has been effective, she sajd. Law enforcement officers arc also changi•1g their at· titudcs toward domestic violence calls-<lu: 10 a new awarenw. "It has been proven that the manditory trrest policy can prevent domestic violence," Mauei said "h's a part of that cultural misconception that men have the right to punish, and there arc many or them who believe that 1hcy'rc doing the right thing," Mauci added. .... In 1982 the Idaho legislature established a council on domcs1ic violence. Currcmly it oversees 18 programs in seven regions throughout the slllte and is funded with S430,000 from three sources. The majority or the run· ding comes from a federal Victims or Crime Assistance (VOCA) grant. Another source is a rcderal family violence grant, and the third source is a stale domestic rund that is collected rrom the SIS marriage license rec.

Since the adoption or the law. which finished iLS first year in June, there were 2.000 women who filed. " In Idaho we may sec a compromise coming out or committee and the legislature, which allows ror a local policy agreement among local law enforcement, judges and domestic violence programs,•• Mauci said. Evidence from other states seem to indicate that manditory arrest works best in conjunction with a counseling program for ba11ercrs, victims, and children to unlearn lhe learned behavior, which is being implemented now, Mattei said. . Another disturbing fact, according to Mallei, is that 1n 1988, out or JS homicides, nine ~ere domestic violence related.

TI1e Domestic Violence Council is prepared 10 prcscn1. at the next legislative session, a proposal to raise the marriage license fee to S2S, Mattei said. The e~tra money would provide more programs ror vic1ims or domestic abuse. "lndlcauons arc tha1 ll ,hould go through w11hou1 any problem," Mauc1 said.
