Student asks: ASNIC biased against clubs?

by D.n Breeden NIC student Craig Killin came before lhe ASNIC board on Nov. 13 as a representative of North Idaho CbrisJan Fellowship. a club on carnp11$, and asked why their ch1b was not eligible to receive student funds like the olhcr dubs on campus.

"It is a conccro of mine lhat there arc clubs here on campus receiving some board funding as far as monetary si.arus." Killin said. "However. we (NICF} ha,•c been basically denied any monetary help of any son."

Killin said that be did understand some of lhc reasoning behind 1bc lack of obtaining runds as far as the separation of church and state was concerned, however. "I think there's a slight case of discrimination.·· When the matter first surfaced several weeks ago. ASNlC Vice-President Eric Phillips consulted the board's lawyer, and he advised the board not to give a religious club funding.

"He told me that if we gave you guys money it was like we were establishing a religion or that we were sponsoring a religion," Phillips said. "He said becau<e of that clause in the Constitu· 110n we could not give you money."

Pllillips added that if the board did go ahend and give the club money, the board would be opening it.self up for lawsuits-not necessarily from the club but from anyone.

Killin pointed out 1ha1 the members in lhe club arc students nnd they pay their fees into the ASNIC funds at !be beginning of each semester just like !be rest of lhe studenlS. Therefore, they should have ac:ccss 10 the funds through their club just like the rest of 1he campus orgnnizations.

"All r can do is go on lhe advice of our lawyer, 'cuz I'm no lawyer," Phillips said. "And if he tells me we can be sued and that we shouldn't do it, tbal's all I have to go on."

The board then advised Killin to sit down with the board's lawyers and see what kind of information they could gJVe

UI/NIC face problems

by Mar) Schumacher

Students breathing a sigh of relief on passing the writing competency exam may be wasting their breath if they plan to U'llnsfer to the University of Idaho.

There they will be required to take another writing proficiency test as wcU as undergo a close scrutiny of their transcripts to determine if completed classes meet Ul's narrowly prescribed core curriculum, according to NIC English Chairperson Virginia Tinsley-Johnson.

Never mind If the uansferec aced NIC's English classes and competency exam. Never mind if the transferee has an associate degree from NlC, which is licensed by the same state board which licenses Ul. While NIC acdits must, by law, be accepted at Ul, they may not satisfy all UI core requirements, Johnson said.

Despite ongoing summit-type meetings bct"'ccn SIC and Ul pcrn>n· ocl, and the real hope of reaching an undemanding qrc,eablc to both parties, Cargol acknowledged many NlC advucrs arc "fed up v.it.b (Ul's) elitist posture when dealing •ith transfer students "la.mtd they arc stecnng them toward Boise State, Letris-Clark.

' ' They're like a third-rate school that thinks it's the Harvard of the Northwest... a mediocre school that runs you over an obstacle course to make them seem more illustrious. , , This is not the case at other area institutions, ocoording to NIC Denn of In· struction Owen Cargol. Currently, NIC has articulation agreements with six nearby schools, calling for acceptance of either NIC's AA or AS degrees as equivalent to their first 1wo years. or core curriculum.

The agrttments allow students earn· ing such degrees at NIC to transfer directly to junior suinding without having to take universiry.wide courses not required at NIC. Those schools are EWU. BSU, !SU, WhitMrth College, Lewis-Clark State College and Western Montano College.

Without the proper degree, however, the agreement is not binding. " It's foolish to leave here without a degree," according 10 Judith Syhe, NIC history and English instructor, "because all schools have their own universiiy core rcquin:mcnts, and without the degree, there is no articulation."

Sentinel receives CSPA first place

The North Idaho College Sentinel bas been award· ed a fim place Cfflificatc for last spring scmc:ster from the Columbia Scholastic Press Association.

Evaluated by the press association based at Columbia University in New York City, the Sentinel was cited for being a well-designed publication that excels in sports writing and coverage, proftlcs and solid news coverage.

Editors for the Sentinel last spring "'ere Dan Breeden. Rita Rollingswonh. Don Sauer. Kunis Hall and Mike Scroggie.

"The writing in the Sentinel is \'Cf)' strong," the judge said. "The use of direct and indirect quotes is balanced and interesting-some speak for themselves.•· "In-depth anicles arc very informative," the judge added. "Proffies are vccy tnlercsting, but could use more is.sue-oriented features based on 11,idc-rangmg research and intCf\,e\\ s."

"Hollingsworth and ~uer recei\·cd p~ for their

writing-in particular for their columns, which were described as ' 'interesting, intelligent and professionally written."

Sauer, last year's sports editor, has since slllt1ed work for the Kellogg Evening fl/cws as sports editor.

Nils Rosdahl. who has replaced run Pilgrim as Sentinel adviser this year, say, thal the Sentinel will con· tinue to excel as a college publication.

"This is an exceptional group of people pulling the Sentinel together C''CfY two weeks," Rosdahl said.

"I'm sure the Sentinel will always be outstandingespecially with the exceptional quality of nudcnl editors and writers, such as Dan Breeden. Ed McDonald. John Hughes, John Jensen and Rhonda Ellson."

Breeden said be was a httlc disappointed in the award, especially since in the past the paper has recdved higher marks. But he added 1ha1 the main purpo>e of the newspaper is to teach s1udcnts. and he felt the Sentinel was accomplishing that goal.

New 'Discover'y in career center b> Ml.kt Scr0Qlr

new computer system 1w been added lO NIC's Car«r Center to allow students to learn about themselves and career opponunitics.

The career guidance system is called Discover and IS made by A.C.T. According to NIC career Counselor Gary Coffman, the compuccr is easy to we, wilh "amolutely no computer skills needed."

All scudenu do is enccr one dig:11 key coteries into the system, and the computer docs the rest.

The computer system 1s divided inlo two main groups-self·a.ssessmcnt and ,cner21 information.

The scJf.assc:ssmcnt section includes questions wbi.ch enable the computer to identify lhe ,tudent 's interests and skills. The computer will then evaluate the informauon gjven by the student and gjvc a list of occupations lhat may interest the student based on these interests and skills.

The informauon portion gives descriptions or occupations and whlch schools offer programs in lhe occupations. The computer also gives a description or CVCJY two-and four-year college in the COUDU')'.

Coffman said another important feature of lhe compuu!r syatem is the ability or printing financial aid forms and giving a "needs analysis" to students.

To do lhis, lhe student fills out the financial a.id forms at home, and then brings them back and plugs the information into the computer. The system will tell the Jtudent how much financial aid he or she is eligible for.

Coffman said be was attracted to this particular system bec3usc it bad a self-assessment portion, and A

_d_a_n_b_r-ee_d_e_n--=:: I\==,,=;1 -, Ethical issue of fun, frolic

Ever since I've had ao ethics course t.bJs semester, I've started questioning things a liuJe more.

For instance, is it ethical for me LO have a salad for lunch when actually I'm craving a Twinky? Is self-denial ethical?

Or how about wearing my Size: 29, SOI Levis to a crowded bar wllcn I could wear my much baggier Size 32s. Is it ethical lO put women through that type of tonure?

I really haven't got an answer yet; I'm hoping that by the end of the semester. my ethics teacher will give me a simple, perhaps mathematfoal, proble.m-soJving equation th.at -.ill -.ork in any situation.

Not long ago, a young man came into m)' office and told me that last spring a group of NIC basketball recruits were staying in the Nonb Shore Hotel and charging, 10 the college, excessive bills for food and alcohol.

His first impression was that it violated NJCAA rules on recruiting, so I told him I would look into it.

I talked to several employees of the Nonh Shore about this issue, and indeed my curiosity was aroused. A cashier there. who happens to be an NIC student, told me that these four or five rccruitS were constantly calling room service to bring food and alcohol to their room. Most of the time they would order two or three meals apiece for each setting.

I've h~rd of human garbage disposals, but this was ridiculous.

The assistant manager told me that the meals ordered w~ usually the most expensive things on the menu as well. On one occasion alone she witnessed one of these recruits consume three entrces: first a '-le'i\ York steak, then the prawns dish. topping it off 'i\i th a cheeseburger and fries.

I hope other people sitting nearby kept their hands and feet clear of the 1able-they could have lost an exposed appendage.

One Sunday after these recruits drank a case of beer in their room- at S1.50 a bcer- 1hey called down and wanted all the "'i nc the motel had in their Sunday reserve.

Honest to God-I kid you not.

What I found really imeresting was that on one occasion two young women came into the restaurant, ordered meals and then left without paying the bill. Hotel security was ca.lied, and the girls were found in the recruits' room.

When asked about the unpaid meals, one of the players spoke up and said 10 put it on the college's tab. Security-thinking that was probably unethical-calJed NIC basketball coach Rolly Williams who gave them the official okey-dokey.

Well I asked Rolly about this and, after a long period of silence, I decided to help him with his answer. I said, "Did you feel that you had no choice?"

Rolly replied, ''Yeah, I really didn't have any other choice. We're talking jail here."

Perhaps jaiJ would have done the culprits a world ~f good. Who's to say? But I'm sure it wouJdn't ha,·e impressed the recrwts ~uc~, ~owing that in case they did decide LO play ball in North Idaho, their girlfnends were subject to being thrown into jail-just because the college wouJdn't buy them a meal. . .

Rolly told me that the person responsible was not even a rccrwt. He was an ex-NIC basketball player lhat Rolly bad asked 10 show the new recruits around the college and town.

I have to give Rolly credit though. He said that when this thing first came to his attention he was definitely concerned, and changes would be made.

Rolly who took partial blame, said "Things just got out of band," and fro~ now on, "We need to be more specific as Lo what's available to them (the recruits) here."

Ob, the NJCAA rules? Near as I can tell, no violations occurred. NIC Conuoller Tom Saathoff said the college paid for the room and meals.

All meals. The alcohol and enra<WTicular hotel activities were paid by the NIC Booster Club. Not illegal, but ethical?

Who knows? However. I'm ioing to .keep wearing my Size ~9s. - · ., 0

Claims 'attacks' are untrue Dear Editor: As a former editor of NIC's col· Jegiatc newspaper. and as an educator v.ho strongly values and cherishes the procecrion guaranteed th.e freedom of the press. I am noncthel~ disturbed by the recurring attacks on our NIC President Barry Schuler. both by the Spokesman Revie" 's Doug Clark and by the editor of the NIC Sen· tincl, Dan Breeden.

While an)'body in public office is a potcnual target for the luruit:c fringe or for any person or group who may have a personal vendeun against him. lb.at leader cannot and should not respond to such 1macks, even though they are unfair and even untrUC. But how can our community fail to rise to the defense of an ad· ministrator who has raised the status of NIC so much over hts 17 years of educational leadership?

NIC has expanded its services and offerings to srudenlll and to the community to the point where Kootenai County can justifiably be proud of the campus, the facilities, the staff and the variety of offerings now available through our community college.

The petty and untrue charges made against Barry Schuler arc so unfair and untrue chat these editors are, in my opinion, guilty of misuse of their positions as editors and guitty of abuse of the freedom of the press through irresponsible journalism.

Those people who know Barry Schuler wiJI know that his personal nnd professional integrity arc above reproach. nnd 1h01 he b n dedicated and tireless adm10imn1or who has worked consistently for the good of the institution through promoting adequn10 funding for our college and for creating an educational fncility of which we all can be justifiably proud and grateful for its contribu· tions to our community and 10 its patrons.

At least, let us hope that in the editorials there was "ab~ence of malice."

Sincerely, Robert J. Olson Editor's note: I reiterate-If anyone can find a factual error a.s staled In my columns or editorials concerning Barry Schuler. I will resign 8b editor.

Atypical heroes overcome fears This is a tale of two heroes. Both are NIC students. Neither is a varsity athlete, but both are heroes of the highest order.

He is tall and lean; she is short and stout.

He is extrovened and laughs easily; she is shy and smiles uncomfortably. Neilher has received popular acclaim.

Soldiers are awarded medals for heroic action, as are police officers who take great risks. Athletic champions are banded trophies or draped with medallions. But these heroes, we will call them Ed and Pam, have never worn khaki-neither do they wear Cardinal red and grey.

Valor in combat usually is associated with shed blood. Contests on turf, hardwood or mat.exact gallons of perspiration. These two heroes have paid in neither blood nor sweat.

Those who march to war are trained, equipped and armed with the best that their nation can produce. They fight an enemy whose weaknesses may be exploited and whose strengths may be avoided. Victory is measured in real estate gained and flags planted; it is tangible.

Those who don Cardinal uniforms play the game within the boundaries of estabUshed rules, personal ability and desire to win. They ¡ face opponents of approximately the same age and size. Winning is tallied in elapsed time, runs and points reg_istered on a scoreboard.

But these two heroes strip down as bare as modesty allows in order to face a personal foe more Implacable than foreign soldiery-more formidable than a world-class runner.

They battle against a faceless terror that cannot be dispatched in a few minutes, hours or weeks. The contest grinds on for years, but the enemy is siJent. He never retreats nor concedes.

The enemy is hydrophobia-a morbid fear of water-an emotional crippler of nonswimming adults.

Pam and Ed enrolled in PE 208, Beginning Swimming, determined-in a single semester-to overcome their dread of water.

Ed was unable to float and couJd not stick his face underwater without choking.

Pam confessed she nearly had drowned as a child and was paralyzed by the very thought of jumping into a swimming pool.

Nov. 6 was their "Day of Champions," a day of personaJ triumph. That was the day when each of them finally conquered fearthe culmination of a gritty private battle of heroic magnitude.

Ed and Pam won the final skirmish at the YMCA pool when they dived into the deep end and swam a full pool length-both are heroes in the fullest sense of the word .

Suicide issue

Morals muddied by money In order to do the story on teenage suicide which appears on Page 16 of lhis Sentinel, information was gathered from several sources.

The secretary at the Kootenai County Mental Health Clinic said she bad some valuable information from a man who travels around and gives seminars on suicide, but she added the information was not free and the Sentinel would have to pay S12 for it.

The information is copyrighted matmal, and the man, Marvin Miller, lives in California. The secretary said Miller had been to Coeur d'Alene twice in the past and has had a fair amount of success in reaching people in this area.

Being as naive as he is, the Sentinel editor -thinking that since the article was to be full of statistics and attitudes about suicide and that the Sentinel should try to get the most accurate and up-to-date informationthought that Mr. Miller would be more than happy to part \\ith a packet of his SI 2 material with the hopes that maybe someone would read the news story and possibly choose not to kill themselves.

But au contraire!

Wben contacted, Mr. Miller said that the material would cost anybody $12 and would not be given out free.

The editor then asked if Mr. Miller would be willing to do an over-the-phone interview about suicide.

"No.'' was all he said.

HypotbeticalJy, say a person was on the verge of suicide and went to the mentaJ health clinic for help. He is sitting in the lobby with his life hanging by a hair, and he sees this sign announcing a packet of information that could help him.

He goes to the window, asks for the information and finds he has to pay $ 12. He goes through his pockets and finds $6.59. Jf he was suicidal before, what is he now? lsn't it amazing how Mr. Miller would spend time and energy compiling all this data on suicide, but when he has the chance to inform literally thousands of people with one article-maybe even save a life-he won't do it at the risk of losing a few bucks?

How does a man with these morals sleep?

(__m_o_r_e_o_~_in_io_n_____) Writer says

Students have little concern Dear Editor: How some people act Leads me to believe they have little concern for anyone but themselves.

I have always been under the impression that the intentions of a library arc for the utilization of reading material and for studying, not for meetings of the local chapter of the Dear Abby club.

The topics of conversation have little or notb.ing to do with it; it's the manner and length in which they are used that bothers me. Talking in a tone of voice whose volume is equal to any discussion in the SUB is a bit disrespectful, to say the least.

Don't get me wrong. I don't believe in issuing muzzles al the front door, but people could use some sensible judgment by lowering their voices and limiting their amount of

time spent talking.

I hardly consider discussing last weekend's football games a topic that DCCds cxtcnsh--e, opiruonated ana.lysis~at least not in Lhc library.

I do admit that this kind of thing bas been happening at a lesser degree than in the past, but there is room for improvemmt.

I think it basically comes down to the fact that some people are disrcspectful about the rights of others. If they put themselves in other people's plaecs, they aught U11derstand what I am saying. Lf not, I hope they someday rccm-er from their tunnel-vision problem.

Mums the word, Joe O'Neill N.IC student

Ex-adviser gives 'stern' reply Dear Editor: A ste_rn response to both Dr. Ross and you is in order after reading his well-wntten letter and your provocative column in the Nov. 8 Sentinel.

Dr. Ross: I say to your charges and innuendos about me and my method of selecting editors for the last decade that my defense lies in 15 All-American ratings by the Associated Collegiate Press (two under Dan Brccden's editorship) and in over SO other writing, photo and general awards given by the Columbia Scholastic Press Association and the Society of Professional Journalists.

Mr. Breeden: The part of your response to Or. Ross, which (in your effort to be flippant) in~urately said you and I "hunted" women, wos offensive to me and to the one to whom t am committed. I do not tlunk of women as game but do think thot all men should c.~prcss themselves without using metaphors which cast women as subhuman, sexual objects to be stalked.

Sincerely, Tim A. Pilgrim

Reagan's cuts hurt Medicare, elderly Case one: A 69-year-old woman is admitted into a local hospital for observation and help. Her lungs arc filling quickly with fluid, and her doctor is worried. Besides her present plight, the woman also suffers from diabetes, asthma, emphysema and an enlarged heart.

Although she needs continued medical care, she is released after only 48 hours in the hospital. The nurses who had been taki11g care of her are upset, but there is nothing they can do.

Case two: An 85-year-old man is told by bis doctor that he must have a hernia operated upon immediately. The elderly man consents and is instructed to come to the hospital the following morning. The next day the operation goes well, but instead of recuperating in the hospital, the man is sent home by his doctor the same day to be taken care of by his 83-year-old wife.

When they arrive home, the wife futilely tries to make her husband as comfortable as possible; however, the man's stitches arc tom when she attempts to move him. He begins to bleed badly and is rushed by ambulance 25 miles back to the hospital.

The two cases I've described are not remote examples experienced only by a few. They arc not extraordinary by any means. With worthwhi.le programs such as Medicare (and education) targeted for cutbacks by the Reagan Administration, many elderly people in this counrry are not receiving and will continue to not receive the proper medical anemioo they deserve.

A daughter of the 69-year-old woman I've mentioned said that the hospital could on.ly keep her moLhcr for 48 hours because of strict rules set by the Medicare program to help meet cutbacks demanded by the Reagan administration. Apparently, under present guidelilles Medicare will pay only so much for ccruun ailments-regardless of the individual's situation.

Why? I have a harcttimc understanding why there are so many people (both young and old) in t.his wonderful country of ours that cannot or do not receive the proper medical care they need.

I cannot help but be amazed at bow man)' billions of dollars arc sent overseas each year by our government in the guise of foreign aid.

~

ed mcdonald

Sure, I know that there arc millions worldwide who need a helping handbut what about the unfortunate people here in America that need a helping hand also? How come citizens of our own country arc not taken care of first? Why not funnel al lea.st some of this money that is sent elsewhere into programs, such as Medicare, which insure proper medical care for deserving Americans?

I also find It difficult undemanding why the present administration insists oo spending billions of dollars funding the construction of nuclear missiles (which hopefully will never be used) and S600 wrenches, yet it continues to cut and attack worthwhile programs lilce Medicare which I'd rather have tax dollars spent upon.

NlC phi.losopby UlStrUctor Tom Flint said that perhaps a close resemblance is emerging between Britain's medical system and our own irl lhis country, especially in regard to the treatment of elderly patients.

Flint, who has sat on panel discussions in the past which dealt with medical ethics, says that in Britain elderly people (over 65 years of age) arc routinely denied certain forms of medical treatment. For example, be said that anyone over 65 rears of age is refused treatment with a kidney dialysis machine. Anyone over 65 years of age is considered to be "crumbling" and not as deserving of ueatment as someone who is younger.

Hospitals in this country an: more and more taking a business approach in order to meet the ever-increasing C0$1.S of new medical technology, according to Flint.

What it all eventually boils down to, Flint says, is answering the question-Who can afford it? The person who is able to bid the highest getS the needed treatment, and the person who caru101 is told tough luck.

( arts/entertainment J Area bookstore: Page from history Text by John H ughes

About a year ago, a fellow from Connecticut opened a store in Coeur d'Alene that most people don't know about. That's too bad; because if they did know about it, they could go down there and brov.-sc through a delightful collection of get-<>ut-the-barf-bagsbooks.

That's right, books: old ones, ne'o' ones, big ones, small ones and, c:spcciaJ.Jy, rare ones.

The place is George Nolan-Books, and it's located in Lhe Second Street Mall across !he street from Rooney's.

This place can really be a treat for book buffs or anyone else wbo might just be looting for a pleasant, interesting place to explore.

Last SU.lllJDCf, for example, one person found in George's sun ''The Woman v.ith the Whip," lhe only known biography of E,-a Peron (don't get excited; the title is metaphorical). One just d<>c:$ not find things like that easily in n small town like this.

The st.ore is a chest of literary ueasure. One can rend critiques of aulhors. such as Poe, that were written by !heir contemporaries, or buy a three-inch thick histofY of Ru.ma for Sl.75.

NolAn began with a mail-<>rder bU1iness abouc four years ago and then took a chance on a store here in town, even though market analyru recommend a minimum population base of 50,000 for a business of this type~ aulSY move for a man with four children.

"If it were up to me, I'd deal in only SSO to SIOO books-Original books about 18th and 19th ccntUf)

explorations of Africa or the Poles," Nolan said.

"Those are my favorite kinds of books."

However, most books over SIO or S20 have to be sold through the mail.

"There jUSt isn't that sort of market here," be said.

Nolan came to Idaho by way of Montana where he rint realized his interest in classic books.

"I looked forward to getting snowed in during the winter so I could sit in front of the fireplace and read," Nolan recalled.

Nolan was not, however, always a ·'bookworm."

He claims lhat he didn't like 10 read when he was younger, even when be was in college (where he dropped out of accounting, got drafted, then went back to stud)· Chinese histOfY). Finally be read one of Dickens' La.les and was booked.

"I was ashamed that I had gone through college and had not read the classics," Nolan revealed.

Well, Nolan is now virtually surrounded by a seemingly ina."<baustible supply of classics, and he said he buys an average of 7SO books per month.

If nothing else, one might want to drop by and take a shot at Nolan's current. "Impossible Bookstore Quiz." This one is: "If you tra\•cled from Daisy Miller's hometown to Tashtego's hometown, you would go from where to where?"

Good luck..

john hughes Graffiti: What's it mean?

Il is difficult not to notice graffiti when it's at ey-e level as it is in public restrooms.

Not only is it difficult not to notice it, it's difficult to decipher it.

For example, what does "Calfs are Vulva's" mean? Docs it mean something about a baby cow's something arc (is?) part of female anatomy's something? Or are the words contractions of some lcind?

Perhaps it means calf is are vulva is something-l don't get it.

This ... um, thought is written on the men's room wall at the Fort Ground Tavern which, if graffiti is a contemporary an form, should be sued for displaying bogus an.

The graffiti there is banal and very anti-Californian. And that's fine. but it almost seems as if a cooperative effort keeps certain sentiments in print.

For eumple, anytime one goes into the men's room at the Fort Ground, he will invariably sec, somewhere on the chalk board pro\ided, the statement, "Californians are pricks."

It just doesn't seem like any one person would repeatedly write that: Does a Fort Ground Tavern Californian Defamation Com.mmec c:us1?

Let's sec, what's another one over there? Oh yea. " So and so is a (sic) official Gay." Do unofficial gays exist? Who makes certain gays official? ls it an elected position-er, post? Oh well, no matter.

In another local drinking establishment someone wrote, ''Neo Nazis must die 30.06 in their head?" (The whole rifle? Ouch.) Or do Neo-Nazis already have 30.06s in their heads? But wait, I guess they just have one large collective head.

Anyway, someone responded to this with,"F-k you niger." Why did that previous statement prompt someone to curse a West African river (showing additional disrespect by not Capitalizing it)? Cenainly a West African ri ver didn't write anything on the wall.

Boy, I'm still trying to uoderslalld this one from yet another watering hole: "I come here to express my intermost thoughts.·· lntermost? Are those thoughts that most often inter his mind'! Sorry.

On a more serious note, on this same wall someone wrote, "So and so is a lousy lawyer." Hey, that's getting pretty personal. However, maybe be was a client of that laywcr and knows what he's talking about. If that is the case, then he's doing a needed service by informing the public of this. A lot of lousy lawyers are collecting fees out there.

Graffill, however, can be interesting. When I was living in California some years ago (Go ahead Fort Ground Tavern Californian Defamation Committee, say whatever you want; I can take it), someone bad written on the restroom wall at Nick's Mediterranean Foods something I couldn't read. 1t was written in the Urban Hispanic Neo-Aztecan lettering style that was popular among juvenile Hispanic graffiti artists at the time.

This particular philosophical idea was cramped and heavily bordered (in the style), making it impossible for even a veteran graffiti reader like me to decipher the message.

Fear not, one day I went in there and discovered that a more talented graffiti-reading patron had decoded the mes.sage for the world to share.

He wrote: "Translation-'The light you seek is within your own lantern· -Confucius."

The chaps who deciphered their way into Tutankhamen's tomb at Thebes would have been proud.

NIC piano intsructor Martin Apclmao brings to this region: im· prcs.sh'C credentials, undiminished ar• ti.stic cnt.husia.sm and urbane sophistialion tempered with a wise humor.

ApeJman was born and raised Ill Chicago •here he began bis piano study at ~e 6. He gave his first recital at 12.

He •-..s later awa.nlcd a scholarship to the American Cooserntory where he studied with Glenn Dillard OuM. After rwo years with Gunn. he took up piano L!ld composiuon study with Vhaly Shncc.

Apclman studied the St. Petersburg Conservatory style (old Russia.n) wich

Sbnee until 1111crna1ional evenu led him i.nlO the Army io 1942.

In 1946, Apelman returned to Chicago to study with Shnee for one mon year.

He then rcciC\·ed a scholanhip to study under Rosalyn Tureck at Columbia University in New York. There he rec:tlVed lus master's degree in education and began playing and teaching piano in New York City.

"It IS \-CfY difficult 10 maJce a livinJ playing classical music: in 1953-54 I go1 very hungry," Apelman confided.

So, he earned a degree in business w11b a mmor in statlslJ~ from New York Universi1y.

He then went to work as clircc:1or or research for Revlon and other New York-based companies. " My piano playing surrcrcd badly at this ume because of the direction my Ufe had taken." he said.

He worked i.o New York for 30 years.

"I got very tired of lhc N. Y. rat race, very tired. So I moved to Dallas to get aw:iy from it-unfortunately, New York had moved to Dallas," Apel man quipped.

In Dallas. however. he did play and teach piano for seven years.

Apelman had been through Idaho on a troop train in 1942 and was sLrUCk by its beauty; almost 40 yean larer. on a Christmas morning in Dallas. be said 10 his wife: "Darling, we're moving to Idaho."

"You're crazy," she said.

"I know." he replied, "but we're mCM.Dg to Idaho."

Fonunatcly for Coeur d'Alene. the Apelmans chose North Idaho as their destination.

"I wanted some peace and quiet," he reflected.

Upon their a:nival., they quiclcly found a house they liked, and be began teachig piano and playing for a church. He then Look lbc job at NIC. "Tb.is area is ripe for a musical explosion; I feel that the area needs a period of cultural development which has been absent for some reason.

"Perhaps it is because or the interest in economic dcvelopmcnt-unul the economy could support it.

Apelman believe$ it is important to Introduce e]cmenUU')' school-aged children to music. ''If children arc reared with music, then they arc USUlllly intcrt$tcd ln the ne:ct step," he said.

Apelmnn's enthusiasm for his art becomes even more cvidcn1 when discussing the upcoming performance (Sunday. Dec. 8, at 7 p.m.) of the North Idaho Symphony Orchestra ond hls role as soloist for 1hc "Piano Concerto No.8 10 C Major K246" by Momrt.

Mou.rt was living in Saliburg (Auuria) when he wrote the piece in 1776 at the age of 20. II wai wriuen ror the fortress commanwint's wife, the Countess Luciow.

"I'm not sure if she wu a student of his or 001... ," Apleman said wryly.

The piece painu a picture of the countess as a very rornanuc person. according to Apelman, who is much interesLed i.n upward mob1h1y in Salzburg society, but her husband is military.

"That i, why Mozart (.gesturing toward sheet music on the piano) h;u no trumpeLS in here; there are oboes who think 1hey arc trumpets," he revealed.

"For me, the concerto dcmons11ateS in a full array of color, Mozart's sense of humor. and insighu inLo the personality of the time."

It was previously belic\led that Mozart had not ....Tiuen any cadenzas for this piece; so Apclman wrote two of his own.

Since that umc, two cadenzas have been discovered in Vienna. Therefore, Ape!man has decided to play one of htS for the first movement and one or Mozan's for the s«ond.

North Idaho College and the Coeur d'Alene commun11y can certainly benefit from Apelman's ta.lent, dwm and community-minded musical dedication.

One can onl)' hope it will be properly appreciated.

'Who's Happy?' Audience should be

by Du

Breedeo

Jbad I.be pleasure of viewing NJC's rail production of "Who's Happy Now" on opening night, and I was impressed.

First, my hat off to the scenographer/ teeb director Michael Ward.

One of many things I learned in my History of Theater class was tha1 a person has to accept catain conventions. The set should no1 look like it is represai· ting a bar-ii should be a bar. An actor should no1 look like he is portraying a 6-year-old, sno1-nosed lit· I.le brat-he should be a 6-yea.r-old, snot-nosed litlle brat. And so on.

The se1 accomplishes this. The anention paid to details was very good. The coke bollles, the cash register, the Texas nag, the c:riling fan-all that was preuy acceptable.

The characters-four ou1 of rrve at least-were exceptional, and I undersiand 1ha1 this is one of the few school plays where all of lhe characters arc "!IC students.

Joe Murphy-playing the role of Pop, 1he aged and decrepit propne1or of a local pub tn Sunray. Texasd~ a great Job. It is not easy making a coUege SIU· denl in10 a 75-ycar-old man, but here ii is done well.

And wha1 a character Pop is too! He has some classic line~ that Murphy handles very well.

Kmti Kincheloe also docs a fine job portraying Mary Hallen-1he 1rying-10-do-well mother who is 1orn between her Jove for a jerk and her moral obliga1ions 10 herself and her son.

One thing that did bother me about Rick, however, was the length of his hair. Growing up in I.be •4-0s with hair that long-especia.lly al the age be is portraying, especially as a butcher, especially in Texas-was unheard of. II be bas a definite interest in theater, be should have cut it. If be doesn't have an interest in theater, he should have cu1 it for those of us who do.

The only character I had trouble with was, unfor· nmately, the main character, Richard Hallco, portrayed by Michael Fietsam. l have seen Fietsam now in several different plays, and I tend to think that sometimes he uses exetSSive volume 10 make up for a lack of laleot. He overplays the pan. Bui it isn't so grw tha1 it detraas terribly from the play. Tbe other actors/characters arc so strong they carry him easily.

Fietsam, however, does do a good job during I.be

asides when be is one oo one with tbe audience and with his mother.

I wish I bad more room 10 comment more on the play itself. It was very wclJ written and has some great, classic lines. Tbe song "My Love is on the Block" is fantastic.

Bui it is not all fun and games. The audience should listen cnrcfuUy 10 the asides and bow everything bad that happened in the boy's life is portrayed in a bar-in itself a symbol.

The language is all a pan of it as well. "Holy heU," " I'm not talking abou1 women, I'm talking about mothers!" and the fact tha1 they won't lei a butcher sit on a jury-great lines and there are many more.

11 is definitely a play 10 see...and enjoy, and ii will be showing again tonight and tomorrow at 8 p.m.

p lay review I musi 'IY, however. I was mighty disappointed when I found out 1h01 gorgeous. long, reddish hau didn '1 really belong to her.

I wiu impressed whh Rony Vee Roberts, espedaUy in 1he nrs1 1wo scenes. She plays Faye Precious, a wahr~s/singer/whore (certainly no1 in that order), and her character Is beUevable~spccially as she rela1es 1he story ol her late husband to the others in lhe bar. Very well done.

Horse Hollen, what a name. But I a.ho have a friend everybody used to call Horse, and it wu.sn't because he drove o Mustang eilher.

Horse is played by Rick Kostenick. who docs an UD· pcctftble job. His timing I& on, he cusses well, and his bar antics show thnt he mus1 have done some rcseartb In 1he field before he goi the part as Horse.

Prof reeled west by hunting, fishing

by Mlke Carey Why in the world did a Midwest farmboy with an eastern prep school education choose to teach economics al NIC? Michael L. Miller loves to hunt and fish-thot's why.

Now, family. friends and even Miller himself may deny any diffl:t connection, but a rank stranger, afw an hour's conversation over coffee, finds it euy to discern that a life-long love of hunting and fishing drew Miller farther and fa,. ther west until his track gravitated him to Coeur d'Alene.

Miller's roots reach back LO Shelby County, Ill., where his greatgrandfather settled in 1839. Miller still owns 80 acres of corn and soybean farmland there. adjacent to his parent.s' SOO-acre spread. And that's not all. He is 43 percent owner of a 9,000-acre ranch in Kansas that his grandfather acquired 100 years ago.

"They say that Grandpa could watch the Cherokee Strip Run from his front porch," Miller said. History buffs will note that the 1893 Cherokee Strip outlet was the last of Oklahoma's great "Sooner" scr:imblcs for free land.

This intrepid economics instructor began his odyssey to North Idaho nearly 30 years ago, when his lawyer father packed him off to Lawrenceville Prep in New Jersey-a culture shock for a smalltown, Midwestern farmboy.

Miller quickly learned about debutamcs and coming-out parties. He also learned about society's "nouveau ricbe" as sons of movie stars Myrna Loy and Jennifer Jones were among his classmates.

But, where was the hunting and flShing7 Young Miller was miserable.

Di.re protestations finally won over, and the elder Miller permiued his son 10

transfer to another cas1ffll prep sebool, Avon Old Fanns, near Hartford, Conn.

This time it was old money and rambling wooded grounds, bunting a.od ftshing right OD campus.

Graduated preppies are supposed LO aUCDd Ivy Leagut colleges. and Miller's family expected him to follov. suit.

Darunouth CoUe&e ~ his applicauon, but be opted LO aUmd the U~'a'lity or IUi.nois, his da.d 's alma mater.

However. nJ$b wtek on fraternity row WU a clear signal that lhc Univcrmy of tllinoi.s ftS not the place foe Ibis woodsm&n scholar. He transfcrmt to the Uoh-cnity of Missoun, 'fo'berc be received a bachelor'$ degree io aariculturaJ ecoDOlllic:s in 1964 and a master's in business (finance) in 1967.

His crowning achievement m college, however, was to marry Barbara bctwec:o his junior and S<nior years. She was a graduate student and an ouidoors woman-she hunted and ftSbed. Their honeymoon was a hunting trip by canoe.

The Millers spent three yean at Utah State University where the hunu.ng and fishing were excellent. Barbara worked as an assist.ant history professor, and Mike labored in a doctoral prognm un· ti! he bu.med out.

Both taught at Western Oregon College for a season. The bunung and fishing v.-crco 't too bad, but constao1 rain dampened their spirits 'lrith reatrr· ing illnesses. It was ~ to find a b2ppier hunting ground.

At a time when wuung-and-<lirung were integral aspecu of recruiting new faculty members, Miller recalls the austerity of NI C's reception. A room at the Pines M~l-period. No welcoming committee, no tour of the city, no dinner with a college official.

The v.'Cl.l.bcr wu cold, spitting inter· mltlcru sleet. and their aposure to the rcsort<ity-b)··the-lake was a pe,ck bet...-ecn slushing windshield wipen at the Gibb's Tu-cm neighborhood on Nor-

Mldtul L. MIIJtr

tbwcst Boulevard.

Friends back in Oregon continued to

extol the beauties or Coc\Jr d'Alene, and Miller continued LO shake bis head.

Howe~r, through quirks of timing and other unexplainables, in 1971 Miller ac:-

ccpted an CCQnomic, teaching positton at NIC. Maybe it is the hunting and fishing opportunities, but, wha1evcr, he is still here and smilmg.

Ten years ago Miller bought a 60-acrc farm from an amateur junk collector in Mica Flats. Nlne auto CAl'CllS.SC$, a doz~n or so derelict TV sets and over S,000 tires dotted the landscape.

Also, an earlier logging operation left most of the land strewn \lihh abandoned t.rcc1ops and limbs. After 10 years, Miller i.s stlU cleanlng out the hm of the downed timber.

Hunting and fishing still draw the Millers into the woods at every oppurtunily. Miller says that hi\ big-game buntloa has tllpcrcd orr In recent years In favor of huntina water fowl and upland birds. lie mcnrioncd in passing that Barbara, now the art dep:1rtmcn1 chwrwoman at ewu. has been known to slip out before work 10 bag a deer on their own property.

New legislative club formed at NIC Seven NIC faculty members voluntarily joined forces this fall and formed the NlC Legislative Club.

Its purpose. according to chairperson Jo Ann Nelson, is to help the college get more funding by meeting with area and state legislators.

Though not intentional, Nelson pointed out that the members represent a crosssection of the faculty, not just one interest group. They include Sherry Boswell.. Marv Kelsey, Todd Snyder, Ken Wright, Bill Richards and Kris AbbotL .

Lately the club has been malcing contact with the State Board of Educaoon and area legislators, and so far " It bas all been a positive contact," Nelson said. .

Being a community college, NlC is not funded with the four-year colleges or public $Cbools, Nelson explained. Therefore, the smaller colleges may not get the funding they need. " We want a larger slice of the pie for community colleges," Nelson said.

Future plans for the club include continued meetings with legislators and possibly traveling to Boise with a group of NIC studCDlS. The object, of course, would be 10 stress NIC's finer qualities and make it more visible to the legislature.

High goals set for NIC debate team

by Wyocli Srrobd The main goal or the NTC debate ream is somewba1 debatable because of lhe many opinions of iis members.

"Our main goal is LO bear Anchorage." said team member Cheri Whitlock.

HowC\'Cf, member Randy Teich said the ream's goal was LO go to the national rournament.

And then debare coach Dick Hyneman said: ''The main goal is the same as lhat of the alhlctic depanmcru, 10 be No. I." No ma.tier wbal rbe team 'i'ants 10 be or do, right now it is ranked as the third best junior college team in the nauon.

According 10 Hyneman, the three main NIC teams are: Whitlock and Lisa House, Bobby Holstein and Mmcr Belmont, and Teich and Jeff Scott.

"We have an extremely diverse group of people on the debate team, which makes everything interesting and, for the most pan, enjoyable," Whitlock commented.

The region in which NTC competes consist5 of teams from Idaho, Montan.3, Washing1on, Oregon and California.

La5t month Whitlock and House won first place at a toumamenr an Portland, Ore., while several weeks ago Holsrein and Belmont placed third during a meet ar Lower Columbia College.

Although the ream may be ~ t e d as to iLS goals, they all agree Iha! it is neces.sary and important.

"There is a need in the college to have a debare team," Teich s.aid. "There needs to be a balance be1wffl! academics and a1hletia."

Competency tests invoke panic b> Ml kr S.uodrrs

The English instructor told our class 1ha1 we were to have an exam in two weeks, and unless we passed the exam, we would not receive credit for the course. Class dismissed.

Three Limes that night I searched through m)' notes, and three Limes I failed to find any menLion or it whatsoever. I decided that I miu1 have missed that lecture.

Al our next meeting, I asked the girl next to me if I could borrow her notes on 11.

She smiled and asked if I was joking.

Confused, I nodded and smiled back. The room began 10 spin, and I felt sick.

Less than two weeks until this all important exam and I had absolutely no idea what it would cover, let alone how to study for it.

Panic-stricken, I turned 10 the dictionary. Then it was.

Compctency-"Thc state or quality or being competent; adequate qualification or capacity; ability."

Finally, I had something to touch upon. This 1es1 was on adequacy and abilit) with the English language. But this was my adequacy and my ability 1ha1 was in question.

Trouble.

Don't get me wrong, I was as confident in my English ability as the next guy. but a pass/ fail C.'<¡

am on adequacy? I felt threatened.

Pictures of the KGB conducting ~-stay/ railgo to Siberia exams bade in the So,,ct Union fwbed through my mind.

Questioru arose. Where would they send me if I failed? When 9.0uld I lea,e? Would there be a ' 'McDonald's"?

The room began to spin agam~nly this time in the other direction.

Dizziness. I passed out I awoke with ice water dripping from my face.

A sophomore had found me in the libra.r) slumped O\er a dictionary.

When I told him about my dilemma. he laughed.

He went on to tell me that he had passed it on his second try. l was amazed.

"You mean the) give )Ou a second ch3ncc?" I asked "Of course the) do, we're not m Russ.a, Man. this is America'" I knc" right then lb.at I v,ould do OK on the com-

Tubbs Hill: A learning experience Walking i5 the most popular reason why people enjoy and use Tubbs Hill. a.ccoriiing Lo a recently conducted survey.

NIC biology instructor Robert Murray said lhe survey, which 84 people responded to, was part of a project his ecology class i5 doing.

Almost unanimously, people indicaled on lhe survey that hiking (46), walking (48) and nature walks (34) were their favorite types of use for the hilJ. Eighteen people said they prefer 10 use the popular recreational area for jogging.

Murray explained that the: survey, used as a tool, will help the class develop a possible management plan Lhat could benefit the local landmark.

According lO the SUT'\'ey, he said, most people who responded indicated I.hat litter control and trail maintenance were two problems that should be dealt with first.

Most people want the hill to be as it was SO years ago which is impossible, Murray said.

Signs won't do the job, according to Murray. The best th.al can be done for the area is to provide trash cans and Loilets in st.ratcgieally placed locations where it will be easy for people lo reach them.

"You have to maJce it easy for people," be said. "People don't pay auention co sips."

Murray said he was contacted by

people who were concerned aboul the possible consequcru:c:s to the hill ir hydroplane racing was allowed to return to Coeur d'Alene and the lake.

Murray said the decision to study the environment of Tubb's Hill was not an outgrowth of the hydroplane controversy. The project was concch'cd at the beginning of the semester 11o·eU before the hydroplane issue

arose.

Murray said he advised againsl allowing the hill to be overrun by hordes of hydroplane spectalors.

It's fine if Olbers want to take his class' findings into consideration, but it's also fine if they do not, be said.

"We don't care if anybody listens or not.'· be said.

The landmark is a fragile ecosystem, and some change is inevitable, according to Murray. " I'm not saying that it (Tubb's Hill) will be ruined in the nc.~t 20 years," be said, "bur it will definitely 001 remain the same."

Murray hinred that the project may become an ongoing project each semester for the ecology class. ''We haven't gotten around to doing all the things we'd like to do," be said.

Eventually plotting out the entire hill as an ecosystem is one of his long-range goals. Murray said.

Idaho's leaders blinded by Moon Remember the Moonics-1be blankfaced young people who, in the late 1960s and early '70s, would pes1.er airp0rt customers to buy flowers or pro· paganda books about the Unification Church?

Although they have been rclativdy quiet the past few ycars-<:spccially in the la.n year while founder Sun Myung Moon served time in prison for t.aX evasion-the Moonics are very much alive, cult experts say. la fact, the stJU active gathering of "lost" young people into the membership and fund-raising ae1ivities of the Unification Church practically has become a secondary cause for the group's leadership, according 10 the Rev. Kent Burtner, who spoke a1 1he NIC's latest Popcorn Forum.

Although no1 forgeuing itS young Moonie program, ~he Unification Church now is going after bigger game, Bunner said.

A Roman C.thoUc priest in Alaska and a nationally touring specialist on cult awareness, Burtner explained that ioday's more notable Moonic wgeis are government and communily leaders.

The Rev. Moon's newest tactic is sponsoring anti-comrnunis1 5Cminars 10 which government and community leaders (including clergymen) arc invited, Burtner said. The seminars arc bcld in posh location5 in exciting cities, and airfare, accommodations and meals arc provided without charge, he added.

Overtookln& the sponsor, conscrva1ivc IC4dcrs take advantage of the gratis conferences for what they are led into believing is fighting communism and getting religion back into the public sector, Bunner said.

Many of the conferences arc called "Causa Conferences," wbich arc pro-

moted as against communisti'c influence in Latin America, be said.

Idaho bas provided one of Moon's grea1CS1 success rates.

According to Barb Straka!, director of Idaho's Cuh Awareness. Center in Coeur d'Alene, a1 least 26 Idaho lawmakers have parlicipated in allcxpcnse-paid Causa trips to Los Angdes, Denver and Salt Lake City. All 26 are Republicans from Central and South Jdabo. Many other religious and opinion leaders also have aufflded these seminars, Bunner added.

Although the Causa arm of Lhe Unific:ation Church currently is the mos1 active, other Moonic arms also are grasping at Idaho leaders, Straka! said.

Accompanying Bunner in an in1crview after the Popcorn Forum, Straka! said the Freedom Leadership Foundation, another Unification Churchsponsored group, new a member of U.S. Sen. SLCVe Symms' staff 10 Central America for meetings with governmcn1 officials in Hondur.u and Guatemala.

And la.st year, mcmbeTs of the Unification Church were seUing copies of former U.S. Rep. George Hansen's (R-ldaho) book "To Harrass Our People," which indudcs a chapter on IRS harrassmcnt of the Unification Church, Straka! said.

Bunner said the main purpose of the anti-<:omrnunism seminars is io clear the image of the Unification Church and Rev. Moon.

The pltn has worked well with Idaho legisla1ors, Straka! added. In Augus1 four Idaho legislators and HBnsen were among abou1 10 Idahoans 10 attend a Washington, D.C., banquet honoring the Rev. Moon upon his release from prison. Included were Reps. Lyman Gene Winchester (R-Kuna), Robert For·

Head Start receives $60,000 Norlh ldabo Head Stan was awarded two imp0rtan1 federal granl5, Director Maggie Tallman announced.

The first award, a " Head Slart Expansion" gran1 ofS36,000, will be used 10 fund a Head SW1 kindergarten program in Bonners Ferry. ''Many people lhlnlc we are just a preschool," Tallman said. "We arc actually an a.gency of change in a community.

We offer education, medical and dcnw screening, USDA meals. parent in· structioo, home visitations, and aid for handicapped children. In remote areas like Bonners Ferry, such scr"iccs arc essential for limited-income families wi1h small children."

Because of this grant, Head S1an opened Oct. I, in a remodeled section of the coun1y fairgrounds building. Fif1ecn children have 1wo teachers. safe new buses and two hot meals a da)'

The second grant, one of only 2S approved by the federal Department of Health and Human Services, iJ a "Rural Hearing Conscrvntion" project 10 add a two-year medical service adjunct to the comprehensive services already provided Lhe area's 140 children.

According to Crown, ldabo has the highest J)Cl'Cffltage of handicapped Head Swt children in the nation. Hearing loss is a common disability tha1 causes se,•ere language development problcnu.

The new gran1 pro,idcs for a screening procedure called "tympanogram" that identifies middle ear disease in young children more accurately than the traditional "pure tone" me1hod.

Besides funds for equipment and professional staff, the S2.i,ooo gram provided testing, follow-up cart and education for He3dstan children, their siblings, ind paren1s.

rcy (R-Nampa), Dicier Bayer {R-Boise) and JoAn Wood (R-Rigby).

At the bandquet Bayer presemed Moon a large trophy in recognition of his fighl against "govcmrncn1 intrusion into religion," Straka! said. Hansen sat at the head table. Most travel expenses and all food and lodging expenses were paid by the Unification Church. she added.

Tht Rev. Burtner said he lamcnlS governmcn1 officials' and communi1y leaders' participa1ion in the Mooniesponsored events.

"Participation of elected officials and the clergy is at least a sell-out," he said.

"Elected officials may be violating the public trust. Pure and simple, ii 's public relations aimed at conserva1ive politicians whom he (Moon) is using for his own ends. He is a very nefarious (wicked) individual.

"Bt's 001 somebody's 'church next door,"' Burtner continued. " In his own churches and publications he says he's been sen1 bere 10 rule the earth."

Burtner said that Moon uses tactics he used while associaLed 1vith the Korean Central lmeUigencc Agency in Lhe 1960s and while raising U.S. government

flnonciol supp0rl for the Sou1h Korean government.

Moon's outSpoken bank against communism also isn '1 just 10 clear bis image, Burtner said. Moon has S6S million in inves1ments in Honduras which he dOC$n 't wan1 thrcalened by the communistS. However, unfortunately the conservative politicans ore listening to Moon, Burtner said.

"They come back from a conference and say 'Moon's not a bad guy after all.

He's jus1 been gc1ting a bad rap in the press,'" Burtner said.

"I'm Jus1 here 10 let people know what's really going on," he added.

The Unification Church plans to spend S30 million on seminars and other image-ahcring projects in the next year, Burtner said. A large portion of these funds v.ilJ be for Causa conferences, wilh Idaho's 111rge1 cities including C()(ur d'Alene, Lewiston, Caldwell.

Nampa, Pocatello, Boise and Twin Falls, Burtner said.

Suicide

An epidemic hitting close to home

by Denk~ lu.l nes

Suicide is the 10th leading cause of death in Lhe United States. ll ranks seventh in Idaho and continues to rise.

According 10 information obtained from Coeur d'Alene Bureau of Mental Health, males of all ages commit suicide at a higher rate than females.

However, Idaho males tend to commit suicide at a rate nearly one-third higher than the national average.

Officials can only speculate as to the reason, but statistically counties with depressed lumber and mining industries have the highest suicide rates in the state.

"Suicide crosses all boundaries and is not limited to race, religion or social background,·• according to Eli Ross, NIC counseling therapist. "ll is the second highest cause of death in 13 to 19-year-olds.. .'' and very high among "mid-life men."

Suicide rates for young females and middle-aged men in Idaho have shown the highest increase in the last few years. according to statistics.

These statistics also point out that the use of firearms is the leading method of suicide for both sexes in the state.

Seventy-three peretnt of the males choose this means, followed by poisoning by gas, poisoning by other means and hanging.

Females use firearms 47 percent of the time, followed by other poisonings and poisoning by gas.

Carbon monoxide poisoning by teen-age males is increasing rapidly, tbe information said.

The bureau also reports that while sukide by teens in Idaho is relatively low, "they represent greater problems both in terms of personal tragedy and productive years of life lost.''

Area professionals agree that lack of problem-solving skills and low self-esteem are common to suicide.

Victims feel a " severe sense of

helplessness and hopelessness, with little or no control of what is happening in their lives," Ross said. "Suicide is self-rejection at the ultimate level."

The classic suicide profile consists of a number of delectable warning signals. They include severe depression. sadness. actual or implicit references to suicide, changes in eating and sleeping habits, reminiscing and disposal of possessions.

Nearly 95 percent of all potential suicide ,ictims exhibit some or all of these warning flags, said Star Eutheoe, former director of Open Line.

Open Line is a crisis intel"\ention program staffed b} trained volunteers who listen and act as intermediaries in evaluating the nature of a crisis. If oc.:es:.an.,. the staff members then make referrals 10 appropriate professionals. " Most people \\ ho commit suicide feel that no one cares." said John Bacon, social worker at Coeur d'Alene's Child and Family Therapy Clinic. "Any type of joke about suicide should be taken seriously.''

"Share how it makes you feel when they tal k like that." ' 'Let them know you care."

Bacon added, and eventually guide them somewhere else for help.

"Buying time is critical so new alternatives can be discovered for problem-solving," according to area psychologist Phil McQuecn.

Without intervention, the suicidal pcrsonalicy will do a complete tum-around, becoming seemingly happy and in control.

But, in actuality, this is a warning Lhat the decision has been made and suicide is imminent, be said.

Attordlng to Sheri Dricker at Open Line, suicide attempts tend to fall into four general categories: -Successful with full intent which are terminally ill people

.

Business

Legal

Personal

Failures often lead to repeated attempts, especially within the next two years, he added.

According to Harry Linneman, program supervisor at Region I Mental Health Services, most suicides in the Coeur d'Alene area do not come to the attention of professionals soon enough because today's "system of adults

this group generally do not really want to die.

--Manipulation. which is the most common rationale for suicide.

Bacon calls this last catagory " manipulation of the world." " 'I'll show the world. They'll be sorry they didn't treat me bet· ter.'" is the attitude of these individuals, he said.

suppresses talk of suicide." " J don't btlleve Lhat talking abo ut suicide increases the chances, " Linneman said, adding that people, especially children, need to k.oow it is OK to talk about i1.

Talking about it is the only way new alternatives can be discovered, he said.

It comes every year, so I don 't know why It commands all the attmtion that It dou.

'Harvard of Northwest' rocking boat for NIC co ntinued from Paet 2 "There arc few interdisciplinary courses, and a holistic view is neglected in favor of a very depanmcntaliz.ed approach," Syltc said. " I feel studcn1s need cultural and world-,•iew diversity, and UI requirements are more narrow lhan any I ' can 1hink of. !l's just Loo homogcnous.''

Instructors conLaC'lcd acknowledged many NIC courses arc accepted as equal 10 courscs at UI. The AS degree currently outlined in the NIC caLBlog was designed Lo be compa1iblc with 1hc Ul core, Cargo! said.

S1udcnts who follow those narrow guidelines should have no trouble transferring 10 upper division siatus.

The only problem facing those s1uden1s s«ms 10 be 1he writing profi. ciency test.

But NIC poll ticAI science instruc1or Tony S1ewur1 summed ii up for most of 1he advisers contacted when he said. "I have no problem with my departmental coun1erparts there (Ul). They arc very coopera1ive. ·• However, Stewan added, "I feel very strongly they (U I) should sign the agree· mcnL"

Nol having the aniculation agrccmcnl "hurts students who wan1 10 go 10 the Ul," NIC speech ins1ruc1or Tim Christie said. "They (Ul) are saying 'regardless of wha1 you do al NlC, we have 10 pass judgmenl on it.' " What frustrates me is that we've made significant concessions or allerations in course design and formalmodifications for closer alignmenl with Ul requirements, but they continue 10 say. 'thanks, bul we still have 10 give our siamp of approval.' " It won't innucncc me or my method of teaching, but if a student asks me where 10 go. I say 001 UI. I recommend BSU. EWU or the University of Moniana. 1know they have good programs,

Book report blues?

and our studcnu arc not put behind the eight ball at a p~ that doesn't recog,ou.e our ,.·orth a.s an institution."

Clirlstlc sald it appears the Ul is trying to fora swdcnu to not attcod NIC. Syltc concurred v.ith Chnstie sa)1ng, "It's 10 their financial and recruiting ad,ut.agc. ldcaJJy, they probably don't "''ll!ll tran.sfer studenu. Tbey waru them to go to Ul all four )'ClltS. la the past, UI has refused c-,·cn the concept of an articulation agreement.

Johnson said. Tbc same standard applies regardless from where one 1ransfcrs.

"It creates an odd si1ua1ioo," Sprague said. "Should I ad\isc them to go in-state 10 Ul. or go out of state 10 EWU? It seems sclf-evi~nt: I "'ould be wise to ad,ise EWU. " Th, Ul doesa '1 seem 10 appreciate they need NIC more than "IIC attds the UI." Sprague said 1ha1 unless 1h111gs chnngc. he can sec no mou.,,auon 10 scad really good students to UL "They're 001 'ct)' coopcrau,c." Syllc said. "They're (Ul) like a llurd-ratc school thal 1hinks thc)''re the Har\'ard of the Northwes1 ... a mediocre school that runs you over an obstacle course 10 make them seem more illustrious."

"Wt have don, many things to be cooperative with the UI. from changing course numbers, descriptions, even try· ing 10 match or parallel course con teat, " Johnson said, "but there has been no equal give and take."

Negotiations arc continuing, Cargo! said, adding that he has sent NIC's lates1 proposal for ironing out the si1ua1ioa, and UI has "rcspondcd favorably, indicating the)' will submit their redraft of our proposal sh only."

Deal me in; card playin' not folded john

I define a sport as any pastime one participates in for fun, competition or just plain recreation.

With this in mind, 1 guess 1 could justifiably say that 1 have recently been reintroduced to a sport that has been losing popularity over the last two decades, but is worthy of reclamation-playing cards.

To play cards, one needn't be a solitaire old maid in a full house of crazies who aren't playing v.<ith a full deck. Cards can suit everyone from ante Em to llle family joker.

And there isn't an age limit of 21. l' vt found that I can flush the boredom blues straight out of my heart and at the same time bridge my friends' vocabulary to a new meaning of gin. I'm not bluffmg; this is no trick.

I really think that people should go fish for a new type of recreation. and cards deuce lhe trick.

Too many of us discarded the pastime when we were younger.

However, now we should draw on the youth

in us to raise the folded sport of card playing to

the pinochle it once boasted.

During I aame, however, some common oneliners might have to be tolerated.

"I ougbta club you."

"Oh, you're a real card tonight."

"Let's bury him." ..You canasta dealer wh.at 's wild this band."

As I said before, any rummy can play cards.

It's no big deal (just as blackjack isn't!). A card player docsn 't ha~,: to be a gambling stud and ace his opponents to have a good time. War isn't the is.sue, just good, queen fun.

So cut the absence of cards from your life and shuffle to the local drug store. If the clerk won't help you fmd some cards, deck him-unless his name is Jack. and be has one eye. One-eyed Jacks

have been known 10 be pre11y wild at times.

If tbt clerk ls a lazy woman, just poker until she gcu off her trump. ff she tries 10 deal you a bad deck , wot up.

Then give yoursdf a hand for reviving a marked sport. \li'hiJe we're on the topic of games, if you counted 48 puns in this column, you win a trip to the Sentinel newsroom to punch me for being punny and belonging in the stare puoiten uary.

Fortunately, 1 have total impunity.

Four of nine matches ended ,-ith falls, and throe of those were were nearly tied until the time of the pm.

Three of the$e matches were won b>· returning Cvdinah.

Nov. IS the wrestlers demolished Highline 57-0. " I didn't realize they were going to be so weak."'

Owen commented.

All of the matches were piJU except one, which scor,:d three poinu.

Saturday, Nov.16, NIC hosted it.s annual TaJcedown Tournament and posted three first-place finishes for the all-day event: Kevin Frame, ISO; Many Boday, 158; and John Fredrickson, 177.

Owen said that e>eo chough NIC might get beat by the strong teams at the Boise meet, the competition will be good for the team in the long run.

"I don't lfY to put a lor or emphasis on anything but the nation.al toumamcnl," he added.

Athletes In Action. a Christian-affiliated club that also sponsors other sporu, is probably ''the top dual meet team in the countfY," Owen said.

On Nov. 30, NYC wrcsllcrs will travel to Bozeman, Mont., for the Rocky Mountain Festival to take on a few four-year schools. Dec. 5-7 the Cvds will be in

Las Vegas for 3 dual with a Phoenix Junior College nnd for the Lns Vegns Invitational. It will be NIC's first dual against this Phoenix school. which i5 cur-

rently rated fifth in the nation at the NJCAA level.

The Phoenix du3l will be held in a Las Vegas high school the night before the Las Vegas Invitational.

"Every major wrcslling team in the nation west of the Mississippi will be there (the invitational) CJCcept the University of Iowa," Owen commented.

He said of last year's Las Vegas outcome. "We got drilled, annihilated. But it was good experience."

The last home meet of 1985 will be a dual against Northern Montana College, Dec. 13. a1 7:30 p.m.

The wrcsllcrs also scored SIX second placu and four third places. Had the tournament been scored as a regular team tournament and not an indiv1dualorien1cd event. NIC would have won with that mo.ny top finishers.

Owen .said thar there wcrt a few surpriSC$ during the weekend of matches. " I was just a, pleased with the 134-pound class a.s any," he said. Thi~ chus had five AII-Amcricam in 1t, yet NIC still grabbed three of the top four places.
