According 10 board Adviser Tony Stewart, the three scats are open only to freshman students. and one scat must be rilled by a vocational st udent, while another must be filled by an academic student. The 1hird scat is open f~~ either cau:go_ry. Stewart said that the riling deadline is today and that pc1111ons may be packed up from him in his office above the library or from the student body offices in the SUB. Stewart said that students with a great interest in lhc issues at NIC would benefit from serving on the student board. "It is an idea.I training ground for anyone interested in politics in which important decision-making is happening," Stewart said. "The elections have 10 be held as early as possible to guarantee 1hc efficiency of the student government.'' he said. He added that most freshmen coming to school here are from different town~ and arc rarely knov. n by enough studcnt5 to gather large vote totals. Stewart described the average people who run for student government as those who are mtercited m social and political issues and those who h:.vc already had some experience in government during their high school years. ''Hov,,cver. there arc also those people who have gone onto the student board without any expcrienc~ and have done a very fine job in the past," Stewart said.

However, suuistics show that the N!C Vocational School is about the same as las1 year "The vo-tcch program is prcuy solid," Lmdsa) said. "They've only gor so many spaces 10 fill." Lindsay said that because of cbe drop m '<!C's enrollment he has been calling other state colleges 10 ask about their enrollment. and all of them with one exception is down about the same. The drop can be auribured to a number of factors, Lindsay said, including a beuer economy. "In this area," Lin<May said. "there's a fine line bet· ween 'do I go 10 school?' or 'do I go to "ork?'

~ Punny, Dan, very punny dan breeden

Everyone seems Lo think that being a columnist is an easy job- but, au contra.ire. Most people fed that all a columnist has 10 do is pick out a controvcrsia.l issue, choose which side he wan LS 10 be on and then take a sLa.nd. They seem to think that all the writer bas 10 do is tell all the good things about that side of the issue and shoot down the opposition's point of view. It's not that simple. True, in this day and age lhere are many controversial issues. And, equally as Lrue, there are many more uncontroversial issues that can be made controversial by simply ba\ing a columnist write about them. However, for one reason or another, there are many subjecu that I feel are taboo and would be beuer off unprinted. It seems to me 1ha1 in writing on most of the juicy issues: a) they have already been written about extensively b) all the good sides have been taken, or c) they simply arc boring. Many of the menial issues of today I have listed below. but you won't find these things in my columns. I have more respect for my readership than that. Instead I will try to address the greater issues that face us everyday. For instance, writing on gun control, for me, seems like a long shot and as far as prayer in public schools is concerned, well, it would take some divine intervention before I would tackle that one. The presidential elections are right around the corner and everyone has been writing about them. Therefore, a column on them certainly wouldn't get my vote. The na, income tax rate has some possibilities, but you couldn't pay me enough to write on that issue. And I would find it way too depressing to write on the "recession" as Washington calls it. Oil prices would be a rather slippery subject, and if 1 were 10 write a column on nuclear disarmament I'm sure somebod)' would shoot it down. The United Suues intervening in Central America now dresses the front page of mos1 daily newspapers, but for me it would be a real power struggle 10 comment on. Meanwhile, the punk rock craze is a little extraordinary, and I can't even fathom writing about the Soviet submarines that lurk just off America's coastline. I also lhink I will simply hop over the issue of the grasshopper craze that infests our southern counties. I don't really pay my secretary enough to have her dig up all the information 1 would need to write on the ERA issue, and I would need several more aides to help me write about the Gay RighLS movement. And, besides that, not too long ago in the Midwest it was a rather explosive issue. 11 seems that I have been way 100 tired to write on the exhausting subject of decreasing energy resources in America today and personally, I don't feel that I arc educated enough to try and figure out wby Johnny can't read. Acid rain is certainly a biting subject worldwide but basically I know very little about it and as far as writing on the drought in Idaho, Washington and Montana- well, a lot has already been written on it and I feel now the subject would be rather dry. And , even in this day and age, the subject of abortion is so controversial that I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot coat banger. So, as you can see, there is something wrong with writing on most all of the issues that this generation feels are importanL Consequently, in my future columns I will sby away from these lesser issues and tackle the biggies like what to do with those little strings that cling to your clothes and the tactful way to tell someone that they have something stuck between their tcelb. These things happen every day.

('--_m_o_i_e_o_lJ}_in_io_n__)i--------Federal pollsters harassing average American underdog The governmen1 ought to be fired for collecting statistics about the "average" American. The trulh is 1hat most Americans are going to grow abou1 as tall as they can, so statistics about average heights are pretty useless. As far as average weight charts go, fat people already know they are fa1 . The government shouldn'1 rub it in. And while some underweight Americans revel in the fact tha1 they are svelte, most thin people admit they are just skinny. The only purpose "average" statistics serve is to make the "average" American feel better. If a person in 1his country is lucky enough 10 be "average," he doesn't need a pat on the back from the government. And the guy who doesn't measure up will only be depressed when he finds out how far off 1he mark he really is. The Bureau of Labor Sta1istks just reported that the "average" working American earned S17,544 in 1983. CenainJy the worker who earned that much has a right 10 feel good. But the person who worked full time for minimum wage only earned $6,968, and he probably knows that he doesn't have much to feel good about. And of course he shouldn't feel too good. He is, after all, below average. But the minimum wage earner who suppons a family of 1hree has a right to be depressed. The government has established 1he pover1y level for a family of three at $8,460. That family needs an additional $1,492 a year just to live in poverty. And if dangJing at or below the ragged edge of poveny isn't depressing enough, figures released in August by the government's Census of Retail Trade report the "average" American spent $973.61 at the grocery s1ore in 1982. lf the minimum wage earner could have spent his 1983 paycheck at the supermarket in 1982, almost half, or 40 percent, of his income would have been eaten up after he bought the "average" amount of foodstuffs for himsetr and his family. On 1he other hand, the "average-income" family of three would

still have had 83.6 percent of 1heir money lef1 after they paid for their " average" foodbasket. Before the current administra1ion compiles and releases addi1ional siatistks of "average•· spending for housing, utili1ies, clothing and entertainment, it should stop asking, "Are you beuer off?" before 1he mass o f less-than-average Americans get mad and decide 10 start \Oting.

(__n_e_w_s_c_o_n_ne_c_t_io_n_s___,,;J Law enforcement: no comment A newspaper is only as good as the people who coopera1e with it. Usually. But in this case the NIC Sentinel is a 1op-ranked college newspaper in spi1e of 1he lack of cooperation from 1he NIC law enforcement office. For example: The Sentinel received information 1ha1 a car had hit a bicycle rider at the intersection of College Drive and River Avenue. The Sentinel called the , IC law enforcement office since the accident happened on campus. The la\\ enforcemen1 office denied any knowledge of the accident, so the Sentmel called the Coeur d' Alene Police Department 10 see if indeed the accident did occur. The Cd'A Police not only confirmed 1he report but rauled off the time of the accident, 1he names of 1he two people involved (N IC stu· dent Gary Ackerman, who was on the bicycle, was not seriously injured). "ho was taken 10 the hospitaJ. ho" he got to 1hc hospi1aJ, whose fault it \\35 , and if any citations \\ere issued. The NlC Sentinel finds it hard to believe 1ha1 the law enforcement office knew no1hing of the accident, especially since i1 happened less than 150 feel from their front door!

Drunken driving Discrimination isn't the answer The federal government recently enacted lcgisla1ion 1hat puts pressure on the states to raise the drinking age to 21. States failing to comply with this measure will lose a portion of their federaJ highway funds. This bill, its supporters argue, will help put an end 10 the drunken driving problem that has reached epidemic proportions in recent years. Proponents of the bill cite statistics that show teenagers arc responsible for more aJcohol-rclated accidents per capita than any other age group. If statistics showed that people from age 40 to 42 had the highest number of aJcoholrclated accidents per capita. would Congress pass a bill banning them from drinking? Drunken driving is a problem that spans all age groups, so why singJc out one small scc~or? !he fcderaJ government, in all its infirutc wisdom, is trying to fight a cancer with a Band-Aid.

Raising the drinking age \\ill only keep a few people out of the bars. Teens would still have access 10 booze through older friends who couJd bu)' it for them. This would do little 10 keep teens off the highways. The problem of drunken driving needs 10 be stopped where it happens, on the highways. There is a story in the newspaper almost every week about a drunken driver \\ ho has managed to take an innocent life. And more often than not it is not the drunk's first offense. Legislators need to take a lesson from the Europeans \\ ho have made their drunk driving problem almost non-exis1en1. In Europe the penaJties are so severe that people have taken to forming car pools when they go out to drink. At least one member of the group sta)'S sober and does all of the driving because no one can afford the consequences of being stopped for a DUI.

Instead of slapping the drunken driver on the hand and saying "naugh1y-naughty" as so often is the case in the Uni1ed S1a1es, it is time he or she was slapped into prison for a good long s1rc1ch 10 think 1hings over. Stiff, very stiff fines, loss of driving privileges and prison terms should be mandatory for even 1hc first DUI offense. This "ould really give drunken drivers something 10 think about before 1hcy did it again. As for 1eens, there should be comprehensive alcohol cduca1ion programs in the schools so when the time comes they can bet· tcr make lhc choice of whether they wan1 10 drink and drive. Crackjng down on all drunken drivers is 1hc answer. One age group that the govcrnmcnl has already said is old enough 10 vo1e and fight during wartime should no1 be alienated. It's time for Washington to take off the Band-Aid and look to a permanent cure.

( more opinion New texts an old story: open and shut case Promises were made at the bi-annual book swap that the next issue of the NJC Sentinel would include a word or two about instructors who insist on changing textbooks every year or even every semester. Here's the words: How ridiculous! If it has been that long since these college instructors were students and had to pay for their books, then perhaps it's time for some new insrructors rather than new books. Or maybe these instructors were athletes when they went 10 college and had their books banded to them on a silver gym noor. Or perhaps they were so filthy rich that they failed to notice the difference between a $31 new text and a SI 5 used one ...,ith a ripped page. And if they were that rich, it was probably caddish to own a used book. In this day and age trungs like computers and communication de,.ices are new one day and old the neXt. Instructors of these subjects are probably justified in getting new books every year. But psychology-come on! There have been two ne..., psychology books in the last two semesters. and basically, psychology is a required course. Now all the new students of ps)•cholog} are forced to buy an expensive new book while the past students are forced to use their almost brand new books for fire starter. After all, how much can the brain change in one semester? If these instructors switched books just because they didn't like the old author why the hell did they use his book in the first place? There certainly can't be a shortage of psychology texts on the market. Some of the more disgruntled students are e,en suggesting that

perhaps these instructors are getting a percentage cut from each new te.xt that is sold. It kind of makes a person wonder, doesn't it.

press ethics

)

Sentinel ethics column debuts This short column. a new regular feature of 1he Sentinel. is imcnded 10 be a vehicle to give readers an explanation of the various journalistic problems and the related ethical considerations lhat reporicrs and editors face in 1he production of a publication. Over the year we hope to deal with topics such as how 1hc fronl page stories are ~lec1ed, why reporters should no1 let people preview stories written abou1 them, "hy reporters should be allowed to auend virtually all meetings involving the public interest. what 1he difference is between signed and unsigned editorials and whate1.er other ethic-relented issue.~ come up. Although 1he writer of this column will not always be the same person, he or she will have expertise thm allows knowledgeable commeni on press ethics. It is our hope 1hat through this column, readers will come to better understand and apprecia1e the difficulties reporters and editors (including studenis in those roles) have in reporting and commemlng on the news- either at the campus level or on a wider scale. Readers who want some puzzling aspec1 of "newspapering'' explained or who wan1 to commcn1 on an explanauon made in this column arc urged to submit their thoughts in le1ter form 10 the editor in Mechanical-Ans Room 2.

Mouth-shooting, Russia hosing are no-nos 1 know an educated man who refus.es to exercise his American right and mark a ballo1 for president. " I will not vote," be told me, "for a man I do not know." While 1hat makes some sense, I'm glad tha1 most Americans try to ge1 10 know the candidates through the information 1hat is provided by the media. The abili1y 10 infonn the public is the power of the press and the broadcast sys1em. II is no wonder, then, that candida1es seek to manipulate 1he media. Control of the pen and airwaves can be 1heir ticket to the White House. Since Washington's days, the White House and the press have been natural adversaries. While government spokesmen and public relations men seek 10 project an image of the perfect candidate, reponers and photographers relish the offhand remark, the candid shot, the unguarded man. They list~ for the voice behind the prepared s1a1emems and polished speeches. The voice of President Reagan was heard on Aug. 11 as he tested a microphone. "My fellow Americans," he began, "I'm pleased 10 teU you tha1 we have signed legislation today that would outlaw Russia forever. We begin bombing in five minutes." On yet another occasion Reagan chose to exercise a prized American privilege and speak his mind. On Oct. I, 1982, again during a microphone test, Reagan called the leadership in Poland "a bunch of no-good lousy bums." After the prtSideot 's off'hand remark in 1982, the White House and three ne1works entered into an agrccment which stipulated that the remarks made by 1he presidem during microphone tests were off the record and not for broadcast. As agreed, the networks did not broadcast Reagan's remark until after 1hc print media picked up the story and "ran with it." Evidently ne1work presidents are more committed to polishing the presi-

• r1ta hollingsworth den1's image than they are 10 protecting the public's interest. However, the prim media had not entered into an agreement with the White House. And so it was through the power of the pen that Reagan's shot at 1he Russians was heard around the world. Some will decide that the president's joke was in poor taste. And others wiU choose to overlook the remark and berate the press for publishing the joke. Some will laugh hysterically, and a few will fear that the president is hysterical. When reporters asked Reagan to respond to Mondale's assertion that his bomb joke was making the world jittery, Reagan was quoted as saying, "Isn't it funny. If the press had kept their mouth shut, no one would have known I said it." And as any seasoned editor migh1 respond, "We don't make the news. We just print it. " Sometimes the news is infonnation that the White House might call gossip, but it gives the public a chance t,o see, hear and know the man who lives behind the prepared statements and the polished speeches. It's up to the elec1or21e to decide what the information is w,orth. They have the choice of sending a man to the White House to promote world peace, bathe the bureaucrats in black ink and wash down the deficit, or they can send a man to Washington 10 shoot off his mouth, hose off the Russians and fuel the nuclear arms race. zmz

Something for everyone in area entertainment by Ed McDonald

Summer movie runs ff spring is che cime "'hen young men's thoughts 1urn 10 lo,e, then summer must be the time when everyone's 1hough1S-and minds-turn to JeUy. Or so the movie industry s«ms to believe. The w.ual crop of summer mo,•ics came rolling into theater~ as earl~ as :'•1a) chis year, and their ru-rival marked m) usual bO)COII of =mas. If I "'1sh 10 have m,• intelligence insulted, I don't need to spend four bucks to get 11 done. I can nay home and watch "Gilligan's Island." Don' t get me wrong; I enjoy a good comedy film as '!luch as. and probabl} more. than the next guy. Well-done w11 can ha~e me htcrally rolhng around in 1he aisle, but some of the mindless "humor" turned ou1 b) HoUywood each summer is enough 10 make my eyes water-and no1 "'ilh laughter. Maybe I should 1ry drugs and then go 10 Stt films like "Up the C~ccl" and "Revenge of the Nerds." That might bnng me cl0$Cr to the mearung of the films, sinc,c I suspect 1ha1 the people who wrote them were on some rcali) beaV) stuff. It ~ to m t that the crowd of Hollywood scrcen"'Titers who tum out these generic-minded m= belie,e thal when the younger generations in l~ c<!unuy leave their respective educational institutions for the summer, their nunds stop working and they need entertainment that requires no thought whatSOCVcr. Now I don't know about everybody. I pc_rsonally know some individuals whose imdligencc ranks somewhere between feoccpost.S and golf~. r~dJcss of the sea.son-but I like 10 keep my mind reasonably well oded dunng the summer. I may not do a lot of studying, but I try to think, and occasionally I'U even spend a day in contemplation oi some wonhy subject. And while l'U admit chat my vocabulary goes back 10 its mountain-kid roots during this time, my mind still remains awake and functioning. if not completdy alen and smoothly running. Consequently, I like a movie that requires some thought, some general knowledge and more than a little imagination. Movies like these seem to come along in the midst of the summer-thrillers and the beach movies, and they stand out like pearls in a bowl of marbles. Wouldn' t it be simpler. more gratifying and even cheapc_r for several producers 10 turn out five or silt of these excellent films during the course of the summer, rather than a dozen or socx:pcnsivc elaborates, which remain for 1wo weeks at the theater and arc forgonen as soon as the marquis is redone? Someday, perhaps, I.he screen writers will learn. But as I look back at the list of summer movies lllld mcnLally shake my bead, I think it's going to be a long, long time.

The Dellamo sector of lhc Teit»-Mcxico border 1s just about the wt place m the world that one would expect to find $800.000- not 10 mention a government compiracy along wirh 11. But in "Flashpoin1:· 1wo U.S. Border patrol ucnu manue to find borh. and plenty or action besides. Bobby Logan, an ex-Green Beret played by Kris Knstoffcnon: and Ernie Wyall, played by Treat Williams. discover the buried remnants of a wrecked Jeep containing a moldering corpse. a rifle and a toolbox full of early 1960's cash. Seeing the ca.sh as a way out of a lifestyle threaiened by computer scanning. Logan and Wyau hide ii and conunuc their patroll.. Soon, hov.cver. govcrnmenr agents from Washington, 0.C. are auigned 10 work w11h them .or is II aga1ns1 them? When the agents nearly gel Wyau killed in a drug bust, and when an inn~Dl old desert rat who finds the wrecked, buried Jeep is shot by mystenous characters in a gO\emment car. Wyau and Logan get su.spicioui that maybe they've latched onto more than they bargained for . In Lhe ensuing drama, Wyatt ts killed. and Logan finally figures out who the dnvcr of the JCCJ> was (this will come iu no surprise to anyone who knows whar happpcned In Tcxiu in la1e 1963), and 1he ending of the film carries a navor of irony that ,s rewarding ir not particularly surpri1ing. "Flashpo1m," while strong on action, is more than a bi1 vague in plot and ~tor-y line. The acting or both Kristofferson and Williams docs much to mal..e the movie entertaining, as docs the dialogue, bu1 these as~" aren't enough ro drag the film up and really gel ii rolling.

V iolence scars victims, bruises North Idaho by Rkkl John lust Three weeks after m«tl.ng ber second husband. Sarah forgot to make a tum while driving.That's when he dhhed out his first dose or discipline- a backhand across her face. Less than three years lam. he delivered hlS fin.al dose, leaving Sarah wilh a broken jaw, 1wo broken cheekbones, a broken arm and leg and a manjled n'b cage. He also left her running for her life. She was found by a state trooper at 3 a.m. six miles from her home. She was bleeding badly and carrying her 4-year-old son. Sarsh wo ke up three months later in a hospillll to a nurse telling her that her son was all right. Sarah says that's what gave her the will to fight for her life. She $3ys that she doesn't remember too much about that actual beating. but she doe1 remember that she had spent most of her life getting beaten up. Her mother. her mother's boyfriends, her mother's husbands- they all got their turns. And she docs remember that this final act of "discipline" started over something very insignificant. UPon arriving home from work that fateful day, her hu5band noticed a small chalk mark that he had placed under the kitchen table was still there. Sarah had not done her chores properly. She had been a bad girl- she must be disciplined. anah also remembers that during 1hc incident. her husband picked her sleeping son up from his bed and slung lum against the wall. "That's when I knew I had to get away," Sarah said, her eyes rencc1lng the painful memory. Sarah said she then stepped In between her husband and son, slapped the 6-foot-4, 285-lb man and screamed, "Don't you hit my baby." Then come the discipline. That incident happened four years ago. Sarah now counsels victims or domestic violence and says s.he will do everything In her power to help \ictinu put an end 10 the violence in their lives. S1rab and to-workers 111 Lhc Kootenai County Women's Ccn1cr contend thnt domcnic violence is a culturally conditioned social disease- one that should be ,1omped on and stamped out. Th111 might be 11 101 easier said thnn done. Violence hos been taught by par·cmts to be the ul11mo1e 3ruwer 10 all problems in a cycle of gencra1ions going back to the notion's birth. According 10 Sheri Dricker, n.ssislanl director a1 lhe center, Lhnt cycle Lelis each generation or children that

America is a mal«lominat.ed coontry and thaI violma the epitome of a v.eU controlled sociciy. "Our goal al lhe cmter is to break tha1 cycle, .. Dricker said. A rccen1 national survey indicated that SO percmt of the nation's female population will experience some form or domestic violence during their lifetimes. Bui Dricker says that if you are a women living in North Idaho. your chances of experiencing violence in your lifetime soars to almost 80 percent. Apparently, the problem is so commonplace. lhe general public seems to acknowledge ii without really seeing it happen, or conveniently turning away from it- like they "'ere taugh1 by their parents- and their parents by theirs ... and so the cycle goes.

Af1er a rev.• minutes of verbal abuse be1"ecn both parties, Jill says she lost her 1crnper and spil in his fnce. Thai 's when he kicked the door in and proceeded 10 use Jill"s face ior a punching bag. The nnack continued through the apartment and ended in the bathroom where he sfammed her face into llle bathroom mirror. "I glanced into the bedroom mirror and saw what a bloody mess he left me looking like... Jill ren«ted. "I was bleeding all over the place." But bdort he left, he promised 10 come back and kill her if she reported the incident 10 the police. so

Pan of the problem is that when readers s« stories like the one about Sarah, they know II really happened, bu1 11 the same time, it's so unbeli~-.ble. A vktlm of se-.eral l)'J)CS of \10lcncc, Jill uses her experience 10 co1msel victims and I.lies lO emphasize 1h11 there is an altemathe to being a.bused. She says she knows how hard ii u to see those ahcrnall''CS wbeo you arc standing m the center of a hurricane of violence.

The center rccc:ived 318 domestic violence calls dur · 1ng the pa.st three months, out of which 12.0 women received counseling and a total of 244 women and children received sheller. Women 3l the center believe that it is time North Idahoans opened their eyes 10 the plague that exists in their midst.

Faculty, staff get raises despite governor, board by Rick.I John Kasi Despite having 10 shave S200,000 off this year's budget, NIC President Ba.rry Schuler said that facuh)• and staff mcmben will still rcctivc a 14 percent salary Increase. Buth wns no cakewalk for Schuler. The NIC Board of Trustees rej«ted the first proposed budget because it hit property owner's PoCketbooks 100 hard. That move sent Schuler back 10 the drawing board 10 shave the first $100,000 from the proposed budgc1. He no sooner completed 1ha1 1ask when Go~. John Evans imposed a 3 pcrce.nt cut ln most state agencies, which wiped ou1 another $80,000 from the budget. "I went over the entire budge1 very carefully," Schuler said. "nnd made the cuts across the bonrd." The president SIi.id the onl)• area that

suffered a.n) more than the othcn v.a.s equipment, lhe area usually hit first "hen cuts ha\·e 10 be made. Bui local property owners' pocketbooks "ill not be left untoudled. Schuler said the Bo:l.rd agreed 10 raise mill-levy uuauon 10 lhe tune of about $16 per year on a So0,000 owneroccupied home. Schuler also said that despite the governor's imposed budget cuts, the $100,000oppropri:ued by lnwma.kers for Phase I of the long-sought library/ computer science building during last year's last-minute Christmas Trtt bill was not affected. The boa.rd decided 10 set $100,000 per )'Cll! ti.Side to furn1Sh the structure upon C'Ompletion. Schuler said NlC has commiued SS00,000 toward furnishing the new structure. which could begin con-

struction in the summer of 1986. He sa.id lhat tbc $80,000 cut from this year's budget by E\'3IIS •ill come ofC the fim year's commined fUDds toward furnishing the library, but he added that if the go\ cmor's projected shonfall in the budget is v.rong, NIC could get that money bade at the md of the )'tllr. Schuler ba.s been -.Tcslling the Idaho Joint FUWll:'C and AppropnaJ.Jom Commince (JFAQ for funds 10 bw1d the library building for se-eral years. He has alre:ad)' requested $2 million from IFAC for fiscal year (FY) 1986, and he plans 10 ask for the rcmnining $2.4 million for the FY 1987 budget. The projected cost a1 completion now Slllnch at $4.543 million, that is over twice lhe original cost esrimllte that "-:is made four years ago. But Schuler is more optimistic about reo:iving lhe

Bow hunting Archers sight in on big game

[__s_e_n_t_in_e_l_s_p_o_rt_s__J

b> lulrl Alderman

Using a bow and arrow lS ooe of man's oldesl and most natural ways of providing for himself. Ah hough in lhis day a.nd age it is not nc:cc$sary to huot for food (other than stalking the elusive canned foods aisle in the supermarket) bow hunting has quickly become one of America's most popular sports. Latest es1imates indicate 1ha1 there are approximately two million bow hunters in the United States 1oday, and almost all states in the Nonhwest provide special bow hunung seasons. Most bow hunters agree that it is one of the most rewarding of Ihe hunting sporls as it requires accurate shooting skills and the ability to get very close to the game. Idaho's early bow huniing season ruM from the middk of Augusl until the middle of September, and It is in these months the bull elk gathers his harem. The loud bugeling of the bull can be easily heard in lhe early morning hours making him vulnerable 10 the avid bow hunter. Most bow hunters contend that the most fnvornble weather for a hunt is a

da>· when there is a strong breeze accom· parued by a slight drizzle. Under these condiuons the game 1s on the move and is less able LO detect the hunter's scent. According to the expcru, bow hunting dolhes should be chosen very carefully to make the hunt successful. The softer the clothe$ the better in order to move through the woods quietly. and some type or leaf-print camouJlage is the favorite of most hunters. This type or clothing allows the bow hunter 10 approach game 'lirtually unoouccd. There are many big game species 10 hunt, including deer, bear. dk. pronghorn antelope, m~. caribou and wild boar. Most of these animals have sharp eyes. ~itive ears and kttn o~ capable of detecting cverytlung going on around 1hem All these factors combined help create the ultimate challenge for 1he hunter. The scnou\ bo"' hunten usually spend hoirrs of preparation readymg tbcm1elves for the hunt that lies before them. but normally the hard work will be rewarded when Lhe bow hunter has proven his skill and is packiog out the kill.
