NIC trustees increase salaries 5. 6 percent

by Ri ta Hollingsworth The NIC Bo3fd of Trustees approved an average 5.6 percent pay increase for facuhy members at its regularly scheduled meeting on April 18.

President Barry Schuler said that the newer fac:ulty mcmbe~ received a lugher cost-of-living increase and that those instructors who arc at the top end of the scale received a lower percentage increase.

The increase establishes a base salary of SIS,000 for a newly hired inSLructor with a master's degree. Those instructors with master's degrees who have 16 years teaching experience arc at the 1op of 1he salary scale, and they will now cam $32,622. lo other business. board Chairman Dr. Ja.mes Ban on broke a tie vote when he opted 10 install a 6-8 foot pathway behind the fenced-off concession area in the newly finished North Idaho College Beach Proicct.

While board members Beverly Bemis and Donald Sausser said that 1he path should be larger so 1h01 it produced o more auractive blending or the beach areas, Josephine Webb, admimstralive assistant 10 the president, said 1na1 the concession Mea with .i 6-8 root footpath was in the original project design.

W~bb pointed out that the rental or the fcnced-10 concession area will produce an income that can be used to

maintain and bcau1iry t.he beach area.

Sausser objected to Webb's argument.

"I'm 001 in favor of looking at 1he total bcach as income," Sausser said.

Webb .aid that the concessionaire pays 10 percent of the gross profit as rental and that the property has generated between SSOO and S1,000 each year.

However. since the improvements ha,e been made, she expects the annual rem to be nigher. "l have no doubt Lha1 the net profit will be much higher," Webb said.

Mcmbc~ Jay Couch and Robert Ely voted in favor or Lhc 6-8 foot path and Sausser and Bemis opposed.

In a unanimous vote. the board approved the installation or an inch-anda-half 1hick redwood sign to commemorate the beach impro,'Clllcnt project that began in 1980 and was completed in 1985.

The sign. which will be constructed with sandblasted lettering. will be enclosed in unbreakable Plexiglas and will cost approximately Sl ,48S. Webb told the board Lhat the sign company has donated near!)' S200 in lcncring.

Webb told the board I.hat approximately 22 organivuions assisted in the construction of the beach project and that a cclcbrauon is being planned to honor those businesses and organiz.a-

tions that made contribuuons. ausser rcpon ed to the board that after visiting sill computer science and library buildings in the Seaule area that he is pleased with the design of NIC's computer science/library building.

"We saw a lot of things lhal we're doing beucr.' · Sausser said. "We're encouraged that we're on the right track."

And Rolly Jurgens, dean or administration. reported that the two college-owned houses located in the parking lot "'CSL of Hubbard Street will be burned by the rue academy on May 23.

The board approved 3 five-month

leave of absence without pay for Mich3cl Swaim. auto mechanics, who will work in private indust ry in Alaska.

The board agreed 10 conuouc medical insurance benefits for Swaim while he is on leave.

The board also accepted resignations of the following employees: - Joseph Hocevar announced his intention 10 rcii re on June 30.

-Constance J. Gri bble said 1ha1 she was resigning to return to ~ hool and complete her master's degree.

- Daniel Miller. computer operator, gave the board notice of his 1otcn1 10 resign.

The ASNIC S1uden1 Board approved April 22 a budget of SS9.000 for lhe BS-86 school year. down $5,600 from 1h1s year.

Is nothing sacred anymore?

Writing columns is usuall~ easy for me bur I have had trouble with 1his one.

Since it is my last one of the year I wanied it 10 leave o lamng 1mpr~· sion on everyone. I wanred 1110 be humorous. ye: scnou): light-hcaned yet hard·hi11ing.

I thought about picking an extrcmel} :onlrO\ emaJ issue and then of. fending 1he majority of NIC students kno\\ing full \\Cl1 tha1 none of !hC'lll could wme back-since it 1s the last issue-and rel! me \\hac a Jerk I was. That would have been cruel.

I was told to write on aboruon, but I figured that que-stion has been stepped on enough already-and I didn't \\30110 blood~ m> hands \\ith the issue.

The question of punk rockers came 10 mind, especially \\hen I sav. a young man (I use that term in its loosest form) walking dqwn the street the other day. He \,as dressed in black leather from head to heel v.tlh a spiked dog collar around his neck and spil,..ed fingerless glo\'~ adorning his hands.

I had one question for him: "Did you blo" dry your hair this morning with a vacuum cleancr1" He did no1 answer.

There is also the new style among men today to cu1 their hair short all over except for a few stra nds left long in the back. ;\1)" question to them is: "Do you guys pay for a full haircut?"

I 1hough1 about giving 1he fags of the world a jab or 1wo. bull then I thought better of i1. They arc getting what is coming to them ~u~c 1he longer !he medical profession 1akes to find a cure for AIDS the fewer 1here will be to cure.

Th, peoplt I would really like to tie up are the Velcro manufacturen;.

Don't they realize 1ha1 in 15 years no one under the age of 20 wiU be able to tic his or her own shoes?

And the clock manufacturers really tick me off. Kids aren't e\en going to be able to tell time anymore using a real hands-on-face clock. Don't they know that telling time and tying shoe-s arc milestones in a child's life?

VIDEO GAMES!! Now there's a subject I could beep about all day.

I saw a 21-year-old man the other day on a video machine and he v.as talking to it and screaming at it and cussing at it like it was his own wife.

He probably spent more money on it and paid more attention 10 it as well.

And the effect these things are having on kids is just amazing. I used to go outside and play basketball, football and baseball and brag about how bad my team had beat Jefrs team. ow kids brag about how many paints they were able 10 score on Donkey Kong. Is there really that much satisfaction in out-scoring a mechanical ape on a machine?

And speaking of monkeys, how about Reagan. The only reason I don't whirl more banana mush at him is because he doesn't read m) column-anymore.

The Aryan Nations is one group that I should really blast nov. that I have the chance. The only problem is that the) will blast back-using live ammo. I did hear a good one the other da) about Richard Butler though. Some collector was asking too much for a used rifle, ,o Butler tried 10 jev. him down.

Let's sec ...who else can I picl. on?

Duane Hagadone ~cems to be pretty much a sacred cov. in these here parts. (No offense, Duane.) But one thing I really resent him doing is buying all the area nc:wspapers. II seems that reporter objccti\ity v.ould be pretty tough to maintain-especially if the pe~on v.hom the article 1s about signs the repcrtcr's paychccl..

I can't believe the people in this area are so spineless as to let him get away wuh that sort of thing. Wuhout resistance he has bought out five major newspapers in Idaho's northern counties.

I wonder if he plans to rcne\\ my SIOO Coeur d' Akm.- Press scholarship for next year?

A1 any rate. I had better sign off now and see about a life insurance policy. I would like to thank my faithful readers (Steve and Warren), and I hope C\eryone enjoyed reading my columns as much as I enjoyed watching them burn. Thank you.

ASNIC board One person could do job of many Oh, where is that indelible pied piper when you want him .

,------;-;~~ -:::::--:-r::---~~ - --=-=-=----.,...----r-..--..........--

With the latest eleclion polls reporting, it becomes apparent that the students of North Idaho College really don't give a nute about their student government or representatives.

So, perhaps it is time for a liule house cleaning.

Exactly 74 students (out of2, 180 possible) bothered to vote in the last election-that is about 3. 39 percent of the student body. Tsk, tsk. Could it be that the st udent body is trying to tell the student board something?

11 ·s time to take a good long look al exactly what those student representatives do for the student body.

First of all, those representatives garnish a total of $3,41 0 (not 10 mention the tuition and fee waiver) in wages for the services they render. That come\ right out of the other students' pockets.

So, in es~ence. the students of NIC are actually the boss-that's right the head honcho-of their student representatives.

Talk about an easy job. Hardly ever do any of 1he Mudcnt bo ses show up 10 make ~ure their reps are ,, orl-. ing.

Secondly, that same group of student reps spend $10,945 on items such as pencils (for office use), posters (for office wa lls), telephone use (to call God knows where) and $3,500 just to travel around and observe other college reps probably to learn new wars of wringing more money-legally-out of the students.

All in all, the student representatives take from the students a total of $14,355. That 's enough to throw one heck of a party.

So, where should this lead? To a one-way ticket out of town for the student reps. That 's right. Ouca here. Vamoose. Abolished.

With the money the board spends and the money the individuals receive for spending it , the college could hire a pan-time student to set up activites in which the students could panicipate. NlC Student Activities Coordinator Dean Bennett could oversee and advise the chosen individual, but the student body would be the one that he/ she would answer to. Comprehend?

Any student in his or her sane mind would glad_ly take half of that SI ~.000 and use half of his or her day 10 set up comedians. dances.

concens, cruises and otherwise functional activities that the rest of the students could attend.

There would be a set amount of money that each club on campus would receive, say S400, and the rest would go back 10 the students in the form of' activities, scholarships and refunds. Or perhaps it could be turned o,er to the SU B in order 10 lower food prices.

Suggestion boxes could be set in the SUB, and students who had a good activity idea could relate their thoughts in that way.

The student board's main function is to disperse the money coUected from student fees, and one person can do that-a lot more cheap!)• to boot.

It's time for a change, and the poor voter turnout and lack of candidates in the last couple of elections renec1 this.

If students don' t want a student boardand it's obvious they don' t, given the voter turnout-then let's abolish the student government and give the studem body a break in fees and food prices.

So students of NJC, use :some of that mon~y allocated for the rep's telephone bill and call the pied piper 10 march those people out of town . There has 10 be a beHer way.

The best thing about the whole idea is that there would onl~· be one election held all year, and that could take place in early fall right after registration. And, the lucky student who recehes the opportunity to "'ork for the students would be answerable to the students.

She/ he could be impeached b)' a majorit} vote of the student body.

Weekly or bi-monthly polls could be ta.ken to ask the students which activities they preferred. Thus, the students would feel like the}' actually had a voice in the way their money was being spent-and they would have a voice.

The long and short of an ancient tradition • r1ta hollingsworth

This case may not stand up 10 sc_rut,ny, but Lwo California mothers have decided lo sue the doctors who performed circumcisions on their sons.

They have not charged the doctors with malpractice. Neither one said the doctors botched the surgery, so I assume thar both liltle boys came through the operations wilh all lheir parts in order.

The mothers, Trudie London and Nelly BaUonoff, and a small group of anti-circumcision crusaders. maintain that since there is no medical justification for circumcision that parents do nol have the right to a1r prove the surgery for their children.

These women have decided 10 challenge the surgery most commonly performed on American males. Allhough fewer parents arc choosing to have their son:. medically adapred, approximately 1.3 million newborn males will be altered by the scalpel in 1985 at a cost Lhat exceed S200 milUon. The plantiffs maintain that the American public is being led astray by modern medical practitioners and that parents now "treat the procedure more casually than a baby's first haircut," according LO an article published in the Spokesman-Re,iew April 22.

No\\, f ma) have a little green monster perched on my shoulder, but I distinctly remember that after each of my three daugh ters was born, my only redeeming thought was, "Well, at lcasr I don'l have 10 pay for a circumcision."

I suppose I grew up accepting the surgery as an American rite of passage, but if I had delivered a male, I would have paid, paid gladly, for his circumcision. However, since none of my childre n qualified for Lhe surgery, I don't have a lot of first-hand informa tion about rucum cision, bu1 I have picked up a few tips.

Last year in a biology class. I learned that circumcision makes it easier for mo1hers to care for thei r sons.

If a kid has a circumcision, the mother can just toss him in the tub with his rubber ducky and he' ll be rtnc:. If not, she .... m have 10 clean him until he's old enough 10 bathe himself, and rhen she'll have Lo follow

,,m

him around for at least 12 years yelling, "Did you remember 10 wash EVERYTH ING?'' And a nurse who works for Lhe Koolcnai County Health Department said that during Lhe war when soap and water were unavailable that uncircumcised males had a problem with infections.

Granted, circumcision is cenainly nol an imperative 10 male cleanliness, and the defendants in both lawsulls concede that the procedure has no medical justification. So perhaps the mother!> are correct in their assumption that American parents are subjecting their sons LO needless surgery.

Bur since the issue came up , I look an unoffical poll of NIC parents.

And I'm glad 10 report thal the ladies are wrong. The parents I questioned were informed, and they did consider the appropnateness of sub· milling their sons to a surgery that has been done for more than 4,000 years.

One young father said that he had his son circumcised because he remembered h<>" unmercifully the few uncircumcised males were teas· ed in high school. " Elephant Man ," be said. ''We call them 'Elephant Man." Although most parents cited cleanliness as the reason they paid approximately S40 for the surgery, a nurse said that the popularity of the surgery varies.

"The pendulum swings," she said. " Sometimes it's in. and sometimes it's OUl." Someone once sa.id that a lot of righr decisions arc basod on the wrong reasons, bul in this case when e,·erything's uncovered, I'm sure we'll discover that either wa)·. it's no big deal.

Reagan 's cuts Raising stink in nation's school halls Someone should teU President Reagan that a much wiser man than he once labeled the youth of our country its richest natural resource. To those students who can comprehend wha1 the administration's proposed 1986 fiscal budget for education wiU do to them, it is clear that he never heard the message.

As part of its proposed budget for 1986, the administration is seeking cuts thal will totally eliminate some federal aid programs and seriously curtail others. Some of these financial aid programs have already been attacked and plundered by the Reagan administration.

Nearly $700 million in aid LO over 1.1 7 million students will be lost if the administration has its way.

The programs slated for elimination include Supplemental Educational Opponunity Grants, National Direct Student Loans, State Student lncemive Grants and the Four

Graduate FeUowship Programs which include GPOP , Javits, Public Service and CLEO. And other programs, such as Guaranteed Student Loans and Pell Grants, are also threatened with drastic cuts which will have at least some impact upon all of the 5.3 million students currently receiving financial aid.

If the 1986-87 budget is OK 'd in Congress, Idaho students would lose out on almost S7 million in federal aid compared lo the 1985--86 budget, according to NIC Financial Aid Director J im Upchurch who calls Lhis estimate a conservative figure.

Upchurch said that 250,000 of the nation's neediest students would lose an average of $1 , 160 each if 1he budget gains approval in Congress.

Officials at the College of Idaho have predicted that enrollment at the institutio n may drop as much as 4-0 percent if President

Reagan's budget gains approval from Congress.

President Reagan and his whole administration arc completely out of touch with reality. He and his cronies should forgo their high salaries and tax shelters and try making ends meet the same way other Americans must do in order 10 meet the outrageous cutbacks the administration is striving for.

Critics of the Reagan administration's policies have consistently labeled them "calloused, •· which describe.s perfectly the hardened stance the administration employs when dealing with issues concerning not only the nation's youth, but also its middle class. elderly and poor.

The adjective "horny"-which a commonly used thesaurus lists as an alternate to the word callous-might be more appropriate to describe how the Reagan administration is screwing the average American.

Writer held hostage by bureaucratic policies Dear Editor: S1udcn1s like you and me, through 1heir presence keep the NI C facul ty and adminiq ra1ion em ployed .

Therefore, one can nssume 1ha1 1hc faculcy and admini~1ra1ion are working for the m1dcn1~. llowevcr, 1wo incidents that occurcd recently have robbed me of this illus1011.

First, 3 Marine recruirer vis_ited our campus and sec up a display s1and in the middle of the SUB. I rook advantngc of 1he First Amendment and put up n poster 1hn1 listed the casualties of World War II and all lhe wars that followed .

The recruiter rook down my sign and ripped i1 apnn. Since IC has a policy 1ha1 forbids lighting, 1 was a helpless viCLim of the aceions oi this worshipper of 101alicnrianism.

I visited Wes Hatch. director of the SUB, and asked him to c.,plain 10 the recruiter that if he wanted to remain on campus as a guest that he mus, not iniringe on First Amendment rights.

"The recruiter is here as guest," Hatch said. "I cannot stop him from

taking your sign down."

If 1 understand Hatch corrc-ctl). he means that any gues1 on campus can do to s1udents and their rights "' hatcver he damn well pleases lO do.

I wonder 1f Hatch would keep his opinion if a guest infringed on !us rights or property by slaslung the tires of lus car.

Or is Hatch suffering from the mysterious arn,cuoo that allow) all persons stricken by it 10 refrain from taking a stand on imponant issues? o"' , let's get on 10 the second mcidcn1. I needed some phot~"Opies of m)' high school tnU15'..Tlpts, and those photocopies happened to be in the regbtrar's office.

One would think that the problem could be sohed with a quick walk o,cr 10 the registrar's office, "here one would then ta.kc the copies of the transcripts and take them O\ cr to the copy machine 10 get DC\' copies. But, one is wrong.

The second problem is called bureaucr:ltic minds. A disease 1ba1 strikes with miles and miles of paperwork filled with regulations, and people who know chose regulations,

and "'ho will not mo\e an ink dot from the rules.

In shon. the registrar's office cannot g1\e me the· copies of my transcripts so th:u 1 can copy them.

According 10 the rules, I have to fill our a request iorm 10 get my transcripts and then pay SI per page, so that the regis1rar's office can protect m)' privacy.

Therefore, a small thing that could be completed in less than five minutes and cost S 1 for the copy machine, turns into hours of work for me and Lhe registrar's oflice and drams my futances.

So, oo,,.. I ask, arc ~1udcnts being served correctly by the people they keep employed.

I spend my money in the cafeteria. but judging b) Hatch's response, my rights are equal to those of a concentration camp inmate in Nazi· Germany.

I pay my 1ucition and fees, bul rules and regulations, instead of serving my needs and the needs of others, only roll boulders in our way.

If you figure that a businessman's time is worth S40 an hour. then the

registrar's rules cos1 me a dcccn1 meal a1 Cedar's.

Writer encourages 'kicking ass on Nazis' Dear Editor: In 1970, when I was half my age (readers unable 10 calculate it, stop here and go to NIC's SUB and apply for submarine BB stacking funds), an awful thing happened in Ohio. We all know about Nixon's murdering pigs on that infamous day at Kent State ... What's interesting and pcninenl to this leucr though i\ what we, the high school and college students, did about it.

More than half of the 2,500 students at my school donned black arm bands in protest. We struck classes. held rallies, threw fruit at the ROTC boys and raised hell. We did something about it and the illegal, immoral war in 'Nam. I'm proud of my pan.

Pooling sources for park applauded Rather than the condominiums that Pack River once considered building on the 3,275 feet of beach from that borders 'IC. a park area is available for the enjoyment of area residents and \'isfrors.

The property was purchased for $260,000 from Pack Ri\•er in 1977.

The Federal Bureau of Recreation paid half the purchase price \\ ith the understanding Lhat the area would be made into a public parl, and the remaining money was paid by the college, Kootenai Coumy Walerways Department and Idaho Waterways Department.

The actual work began in 1980, and the projec1 ,... ill be completed in June. A sign that commemorates the beach improvement project will be erec1ed, and a concrete ramp to a restroom will be installed for the benefit of handicapped users.

The cost of improvements to the propeny have been shared by the city of CoeuJ d'Alene, Kootenai County and 22 businesses. who have donated funds, equipmem and personnel and shaved their costs to help complete the improvements that 1urned the sandy area into a first-rate park.

But the star, the real star, that brightened the beach is Josephine Webb, NIC's Director of Development.

She applied for 1he federal funds, helped in the design, scheduled the work and coordinated the contributions.

In a way, she gave us the park. We give her our thanks.

'Killing for billing' too much One last rolum n. d ear readers, one last opportunity to \Cot m) f~tr!l· 1ions or sing praises to one aspect or another of the vast ans and entertainment indus1ry. I couldn' t lei the year go by without 3 sf.uh at one of my favor11c peeves-violence!

Now I know that everybody's had their say about completely abolishing violence from rele,•ision. I can't really agree with that. because let's face it. in a lot of si1ua1ions there is the potential for violence. and it docs lake place and always will. You can't get away from it by hiding your head in the sand and having the actor shot off-screen somewhere.

I'll ag~. 100, 1hat it's over-abundant on 1elevision and that it's played up too much. 1've seen a lot of killings on relcvisioo where it actually looked like the people involved were having fun.

What I' m suggesting is 00110 hide from the fact of violence, and not to make ii look like the main reason the show is broadcast is 10 beat somebody senseless before an audience of millions. When violence is necessary in the plot of a movie, show it for wha1 ii is ... ugly.

Ever notice that gunshot victims on television usual ly can walk or at least talk, and 1hat they seem to crumple rather listlessly to the ground when they're hit?

I've seen actual footage of combat and police situations, and I'\•e t.a!kcd to more than a few combat veterans, and they'll tell you that when Joe Shmo gets hit in Lhe chest by that .357, he won't just fall down, he'll hit the ground so hard he bounces. Keep in mind Lhe foot-pound co ntact energies of an average small-arms bullet, and then watch someone get shot on television and laugh-or cry.

So if the producers and directors of our entcnainment indosu-y want to do everyone a real favor, instead of using that elaborate staging and a lot of Technicolor blood, lei them tell it li ke i1 is. Sure, it's shocking.

Sure, it isn'I something anyone will like. Bui you won't have to worry about the wrong ideas that all this choreographed "killing for billing" is puning in the heads of your children or your neighbors.

If they had 10 watch it in true, brutal detail, maybe they'd realize how abhorrent and horrible it really is, compared to the almost lighthearted way it's portrayed now.

To mt, lhe shock 10 my sensibilities would be a small price to pay for some realization on the pan of a person who might get the idea that a little real violence wouldn't be au that serious or cause much damage. because the people on television get up from the ground and arc fully healed in two minutes of film time.

Glowing garba,g·e/NICS.,tiooHZNuc/ear entrepreneur lives, leaves

by Rich Hlllmann No 01her person involved tn 1he nuclear energy business is as in1ercs1ing a character as Frcdnck P. Beierle, 1he man who prcsen1cd 10 1he American public 1he idea of having the Hanford nuclear deposilory waste site near Richland, Wash.

According to the Philadelphia Inquirer. Bc1crlc is described as a dreamer by the people of llll home1own of Prosser. Wash. Beierle is known 1here as a person full of charm and curiosity; an imagina1ivc inventor who will someday bit a jackpot.

Today Beierle is working on the development of a gasifier plant lbat supposedly can turn every1hing from chicken shit. cherry pits and old rubber 1ircs into clean energy.

His pas1, however, has been spent on the composi1ion of low-level nuclear waste burial si1es all over the United S1a1es. earning him the reputation of a "nuclear super-salesman." Given Bcierle's background in 1he nuclear field, according 10 the Inquirer's s1ory, chis is perhaps undersl;lndable.

Working for 1he A10mic Energy Commission (AEC) as an assembly line worker a1 Hanford in 1954, he quickly moved up 10 reac1or opera1or.

Over 1he nex1 four years. he gained expcrienl:'e working al six different rcac1or si1es all over 1he coumry.

In 1962 1hc AEC decided 10 close 1wo federal burial grounds and encouraged priva1e operators 10 develop low-level nuclear waste dcposuory sues.

This decision 83\C Beierle 1he n~sary conditions 10 become 11n entrepreneur in the nuclear wasle field.

H, ldt his job as a sh1f1 supervisor at 1he AEC's Elk Rjver 1cs1 reac1or near Minneapolis and joined up w,i1h a professor of nuclear engineering a1 Purdue Universilr and a health physicis1 from California. In 1he sprang of 1963. the three founded California Nuclear Inc. whose primary funclion was 10 "own or lease. develop and opcra1e bcrial grounds for radioactive waste.'· as spelled ou1 in papers on file wi1h 1he S1a1c of California. for his 01'51 burial ground projcc1, Beierle stayed close 10 home-Richland. Afier months of nego1iauons. 1he federal governmem leased 100 acres adjoining the AEC's propcny 10 the s1a1e governmem which in 1urn leased it 10 none other 1han California uclcar Inc. To get s1ar1ed. lkierle 100k a S147 .000 loan from the Small Business Administration.

The people in the pro-nuclear environment of Hanford and Richland never opposed 1he idea.

Pasco feniurcs a supermarket named "Atomic Foods." Richland's high school team is named lhe "Bombers"and the symbol is a mushroom cloud.

Beitrit sufftred a slight sctback when 1hc s1a1e coun in•alida1ed the company's lease for technical reasons. Howe,·er. a bill was soon herded through the Washington Legislature so the company could Stan operating in the fall of I965.

Before the fim truck of low-lc,•el nuclear waste ever arrhcd in Hanford, Bc1crlc s1ancd a journey across 1he United S1a1cs looking for nc" burial si1es.

The Inquirer said these journt)S lead ham to: -Sheffield. 111. , "here he sct up a rad1oac1i, e waste dump m 1966. ·-Barn.. cll. S.C.. where he began 10 SCI up a burial site in 1969. ·-Prosser, Wash . . in 197S where he incorporated

-Balon Rouge, La •• where he SCI up a burial site for 10:oc chemicals m 1977.

-Lyons. Kan •• in 1978 where he began 10 sci up a low-level nuclear "aste site in an old salt mine.

The article said Beierle docs 001 own lhcse sites.

As a mauer of fac:1. Beierle nC\er kepi any of lhe sites for very long. As soon as be had all the necessary lictnses from the Stale goverrunenLS. be began looking for someone 10 buy his "aslC si1cs. 'iuclnr Engineering Co. bought out California Nuclear Inc. in 1968, a year after Beierle bad SCI

Inc .• and scl up the bunal s11c in Sou1h Carolina.

Later. lk1erle sold his interest in 1ha1 company 10 the Great Columbio Corp. which took over the buriru site in Bornwell. For 1everal years Beierle <crved as a director of Great Columbia which later changed its name 10 Chem-Nuclear Sys1cms Inc. Tod•y. Belerit join1ly owns B&B Equipment wi1h 01hcr fanuly members and Pyrenco Inc.. 1hc company that i, producing his gasifying plant.

Todny in Sheffield, people fctl betrayed by Beicrtc·s promi~e1, 10 put only lo" -level nuclear wns1c. acquired from hospi1als. into 1he buna.1 sue.

The corpornllons that bought the shes from lk1erlc al~o pu1 an low-level plu1onium and 1rl1ium w~te which 1s now leaking tnlO the ground around the silts.

Beierle promised the Illinois people 1hat "the material we handle is sweeping compound, glassware, rags, clolhing, con1amina1cd 1ools and even chairs. The Inquirer put ii 1hi, way: "In some cases the rubbish ma1crial we put In 1he drums and bury is lcs\ 1han 1he radium of an alarm clock," Beierle as~ured 1hem.

According 10 Jay Langford, owner of a pharmacy in Sheffield, "lie (Beierle) moved right in like he was here to stay.

The application 10 the /\EC for pcrm1~· s1on 10 bur)' wasie 01 Sheffield \l:llcd that "\<Ir. Beierle is now living in Sheffield" and "all burial opcrauom, will be under the direct personal obscr· vauon of Mr. Fredrick P. Beierle. • " Bcierle's response: "The leaks have not occurred when I owned the burial site; therefore I can '1 be responsible for whatever wenl on after I've sold 1hc sile."

The lnqtdrtr uld 1h11 in froni of a Bureau County zoning board hearing in Sheffield, Stierle sta1cd he would be on 1hc bunal ground daily and personally absorb 1he largest dose or radiation 1ha1 could be emined.

"In a year's time l will absorb abou1 the amount of 1wo chest X-rays, and I will be there every day." Beierle was quo1ed as saying.

Today, Stierle claims 1ha1 ii is his free choice 10 buy and sell land and 10 move 10 wherever he pleases.

"This is no1 a communis1 country. This is America. Thi> is not Russia." he emphatically Staled.

Hulk Hogan and Mr. T ~.IIc!! "Gorgeous" George Ives and Barry "Soft Shoes" Schuler may be your next opponents.

This dynamic duo appeared in a tag-team 11.-resthng championship match held April 23 in the Chnsuanson gym on behalf of the NI C Ethiopian Relic( Fund.

The action beglln even before the bell had rung, when contender "Galloping" Chuck Whitlock had to be rorc,bly rest rained. Whnlock seemed 10 experience some confusion as to when the match was 10 begin.

"Gorgeous" George Ives' en1rancc seemed 10 stun the audience. Ives paraded across the gym in a coordinated ensemble, and his plum bathrobe accented by 11,hi1e high-top tennis shoes and his newl> acquired blond tresses turned more than one head.

"Soft Shoes" Schuler v.a\ accompanied by his ov.n personal nurse who kept a constant vigil on his blood prc~sure " If my blood pr~sure goes up. I do serious grca1 harm 10 my opponents," Soft Shoes said. Fonunately for hi~ mah. this was not true.

A special appearance was made by Cand) Clcopotra, author o f 1ha1 no1 so famous book, "Going Places and Gaining Nothing." :Vh. Clcopalr.l saved as ring girl.

Entertainmcm was provided by 1he Bloopers and Bleepers Bnnd. (formerly the NIC Pep Band) whose rendi1ions of "The S1npper," "Lei's Ge1 Physical'' and "Fame" soothed the savage beasts.

"Kool Hand" KeMedy did try some fancily infurillted palm tree throws 10 generate audience excitement. The

third round brought referet Sc011 Close more 1han he bargained for when Whitlock pushed him down man illegal and uncommonly rough take-down.

After a preuel lock which imoh·ed aU four conteS1ants, it was still unccrtam who the -.inners v.erc.

"GorJZeous" Geonze sniffed 100 much of his own secret disiniecta111 compaund before the second match and appeared daz.ed 10 onlooken.

A debate over v.hether Ives' new look had constituted \Ome type or sex change was settled when Schuler's personal o ~ ,oluntCCTcd her services to examine the subjCCL Schuler had earlier lodged a protest o, er I>.es' double-identity. h cs tried numerous diversions including sputiog on Schuler and hypnotism. but Soft Shoes was already in enough of a daze that l\'es· manipulations failed.

Disappearing act riles writer Correct me if I am wrong, but I thought that 1he semes1er doesn'1 end until May 15. Somebody ought 10 have told that 10 a certain sports figure here on campus before he grabbed a Lufthansa jet for home.

Silly me, I though• that the purpose of attending college was to get an education, not just to participa1e in sports. What really gets me is 1ha1 the above-mentioned person was here on a scholarship and now that money is as good as flushed down 1he crapper.

Banks charge a substantial penalty for early wi1hdrawal, why shouldn't lhecoUege do the same 10 students, especially athletes who figure that school ends wilh 1he last game of the season.

But maybe I shouldn' t be so qu ick 10 sa y that this :uhlete has hit the autobahn for good. As of April 11. the person was still listed as being in school. Maybe he is going to finish via a correspondence course.

This is a problem that has raised controvers}' in colleges all across the country for years.

Charges have been leveled that many schools are no more than expensive "camps" for training

players for the pro's and that scholastics tend to take a back seat.

This Is un!sli1 to both 1hc colleges and the athletes 1hemselves.

Sure, the athlete dreams o f making it in the pro's one day and figures 1hat he won'1 need a lot of 1ha1 English, government and ma1h crap when he is pulling in megabucks playing ball.

But what if the time comes and he doesn' t make it in the big leagues? What if he suffers a careerending injury? Or what does be do when it's time to hang up his sneakers and retire? What does he have 10 fall back on?

Colleges have set policies that require a thletes 10 maintain a certain GPA while au ending school in order to be eligible 10 play. But they haven't set any guidelines to insu1e that the player will stay after the season has ended. Setting some guideli nes to insure tha1 the players stay would work 10 the benefit of both the student and the school.

Scholarship contains the word scholar which the American Heritage Dictionary defines as

don sauer "One considered in 1he light of his aptness at learning." This money is supposedly given to ajd the student's pursuit of academic advancement. But with incidentS such as the one mentioned earUer it makes me want to invent a new word 10 describe the money given to some a1heletes"fret~hips" - " aid given by colleges to advance the athletic skills of an individual and improve the record of the team whet.her the individual get.s an education or not."

Ma} be tbe schools should copy banking policies and charge a substaniial penalty for early withdrawal. Make an athle1e, or for that mauer any student, who leaves school before the term is over, pay back the scholarship. Let them foor the bill and stop putting 1he burden on the schools.

I ,SOO meters b> clocking a time of 3:58.8 a1 a recent meet.

Bcn1ham gamed a nauooal ber1h wi1h 1imes or I:S.U ID the 800 and 3:57 .8 m the l,SOO.
