Snake's alive; mice get second chance b) Jeannie Allenberg

Barrymore hasn'l had a buc 10 cat s111ce December. and he 's sllll turning up his fangs at all the tempting litllc mice being offered 10 him.

Bsrr}-more is the biolog) lab's pct Ht1i11an boa constrictor. and lnmuctor Vern Poncr said the snake isn't sick-he's JUSI not hungry.

Poncr S3.ld it isn·1 panicularly uncommon for such a snake 10 go on a several week fast. although Barrymore normally puts the squeeze on a couple furry little mc.als every two "eeks or so.

Right no" , Barrymore is 1101 his usual charming self: his eyes arc glazed over, nnd bis greatest show of nmbilion is " hen be occasionally sidMlirhcrs a woutd·be meal.

According Lo Poner. the snake's odd behavior can probably be auributed to the fact that he's abou1 due LO slide out of his ,..jnier's skin.

In D«cmber of 1983. Barrymore became famous across the Uni1ed Stares "'hen he man3ged 10 elude his captors for LWO ,..eeks. .

Trustees up tuition, housing, meals

by Rlra Holllngsworrh NIC students will pay more for tuition. housing and meals when they register for the 198S-86 fall semester.

The NIC Board ofTrusrccs approved a 9.4 percent increase in tuition and recs for full-time district resident studcnis at its meeting on March 21. District students enrolled in 10-19 credits v.ill pay S336 per semester. up S29 from S307.

Idaho students who reside outside NIC's t.axing district will pay S786 each scmmer. a 9.6 percent in, crease over the S717 charged in 1984-85. Out-of-smte ruiuon "as increased 10.6 percent, from S787 to SS71.

Parr ·time students will pay S33 per credit hour. up 10 percent from S30, and the out-of-district rare per credit hour will cost S79. an 11 .2 percent increase.

President Schuler told the board that a decrease in enrollment coupled v.ith innation that is over 4 percent ncccssiUlted the increases.

Schuler also cited innation when he requested the 5.9 percent incrtasc in dormitory and cafeteria fees that was approved by the bo:trd.

Dormitory cost.s were increased from S304 per semester to S322. Cafeteria fees for 19 meals per week were raised to S801, and Lhe cost forrhe 14 meal plan was increased 10 S754.

Schuler told the board that IC's increases were in line "i1h rhose of other Idaho colleges.

"All of our sister institutions increased to slightly higher than 6 percent." Schuler said.

In other business. allhough lhe board refused to demolish three houses located on the NIC campus. it did vote 10 remove two or the houses :it an estimated cost of SJ-5,000.

Board member Roben El> and wrestling Coach John Owen both argued that all lhrec houses should be repaired and kept in use to provide student housing.

Ely said that the buildings should no1 be destroyed until ii is cenain that a proposed ap:inment building

V

will be consLructed, and Ov.en added that if the three buildings v.ere des~)ed he \\Ould lose bed space for five of his athletes and that he "'ould need compcnsa1ion to pro\lde housing for those srudenLS. O" en said lb.at his out-of-srate srudenLS need housing on cnmpus because they do not have their own lraru.ponatioo and lhru rhe) ha,e been unable to adjust to dormirorJ life in the past.

After discussion the board ,ored, v.nh El> in opposition. to destroy the houses located ar 817 and 821 Empire A,e. and to save the one located on lht' nonb end of rhc Hubbard Street apanmenu. 0-..en said be would lose bed space for two wrestlers.

In other business. the board also agreed to set the rate for USil\8 the NIC ovt'l'land coach at 7S cents per mile. Schuler sajd that the athletic department has no objections 10 the current role and that it will be reviewed each year.

The board also agreed ro call for bids to pa,·e the parking lot b)' Lhe Mc Hugh House. NIC Dean of Administration Roll)' Jurgens, said that it would cost an cstirnatcd S28.000 to pro,;de 105 paved parking spaces.

Nuke war like badminton

NIC Sentinel quality suffers

dan breeden

J just read che bright, orange-covered Kootenai Count} Ci\i l Defense Manual which tells people what 10 do in time of a national icmergenc}·more specifically, a nuclear war. If you are in need of a good laugh or fire starter, it is definitely required reading.

Seriously though, it is truJy a literary work of art. It has done something that most nuclear war classics have failed 10 do-make Lhe impending holocaust sound as if it will be more of a C1t)·w1de reunion rather than a disaster.

One of the many great quotes from thi pamphlet reads: "Pack as if you were going on a two weeks camping trip." I can't be 1ure, but I interpret that 10 mean "Don't forget your badminton~ and a change of underwear.·• It goes on to say that enough food and water should be stored to last two weeks because after that, the outside radiation IC'\eb should be lov. enough so that everyone should be able to walk outdoors.

And sec what? And do what?

It makes it sound as if at the end of this 14-da> penod a perwn should be able to walk out of the shelter and go back to work, or ~chool. or wherever.

It fails 10 mention that because of Coeur d' Alene's proumn) 10 Fair· child Air Force Base in Spokane. there won't be an) trees, btbll1Cl,SCS or houses left. It doesn't tell people lhat their cars ma} not be e\3ctl) where they left them. Nor does it state that if someone left his porch light on, he needn't worry about unusually high pov.er bills.

Another one of my favorites is when it tall.s about people's homes.

They arc advised LO "close and lock all doors and v.indow;s-take ,our keys with you.'' Good idea! At least that way they will ha1.e >Omethms to remember their house by.

One more thing mentioned is that people should get 10 the nearC)l shelter as soon as possible driving onl)' if necessary. And in case there is no room at 1he inn, they ~hould then drive 10 a neighborin~ town to seek shelter. The funny thing is that from everything I 'n• read and <een. cars won't run and neither will people for very long.

It says do not take "pets,'' "foods requiring cooking or refrigerauon" or "name producing de,~ees.'' I can live ,,i 1hou1 those. Ho,,c,cr. ll adds "no alcoholic bevcrag~. '' Pity.

As far as religious services, "a schedule of organized church >tnice~ will be published in newspapers and broadcast on Lhc radio." I needn't worry about who is going 10 be running the pr~es and broadcasting from buildings that have been turned into radioactive rubble-I've got my own butt to worry about.

Thus. I've given the matter a half-life of lhought, and I have decided 10 skip the shelter scene, not stay in a basement, and not head for Montana. l have devised my own plan of attack in case of anack.

The first thing I plan on doing when the old horn stans blowing and the radio says. ' 'this is not a 1es1 of the Emergency Broadcasting System-this is the real McCoy,'' I pick up the phone and caJJ my parents and two sisters and tell them not to expect me for Chri.,,1mas. I \I.ill cell them that l Jo,e them, to take co,er, and to assume the position. l\eM. I am going to jump into my white van (symbolic) and drive LO the nearest grocery score for a bottle of their best champagne. While franuc people throw mega-cans of soups and veggies into their cans, . I v. ill breeze past the checker. 1hro" him a S20 bill and tell him 10 keep the change.

Step lhrC\! involves dri,ing 10 wherever she li,es and picking up the girl I love most tQ spend time with.

The next step-by wa)' of lhe now uncrowded back-streets- is 10 dri,c 10 the nearest. tallest building. We will then take the elevator to the top floor and find our way 10 the roof.

The rinal step is to open the champagne, find a clear, unobstructed view facing due west and sit down to watch the ftrev. orks- the likes of which this Montana-born bumpkin has never seen before.

And, while,he frenzied crowds below kill each other for a spot in the shelters, I will make a toast 10 life. love and ...

Punishment key to raisin thefts, murder Whenever I think about my "Caution: Starving Diecer-\\ ill Bue If Provoked" T-shirt, I wish that 1 had h.it my children more often when they were small. When they were little, I bated 10 h11 them. It seemed to me that deliberately innicting pain on those curly-haired, rosy-<:beeled cherubs was not only wrong but that it was also unnecessary.

But now 1ha1 my home is a perfect example of Milton's pandemonium, and my daughters tower over me and T-shirt after T-shirt has disappeared, 1 realize that the purpose of punishment is to teach individuals that their will is subject 10 the law.

It all started with the raisins. One of my kids piliered raisins, not only for herself but for the entire neighborhood. I warned her about stealing raisins. scolded her for stealing raisins but 1 never hit her because she stole raisins Instead of insisting with a good hard whack that she respect the '·no stealing'" law and leave my raisins alone, I reasoned that if I protected the raisins until baking day. my problem would be solved, and so I hid the raisins, which, of course, she always found. Then l began buying two bags of raisins instead of one, but instead of learning that helping herself to my raisins was wrong, she just stole both bags.

I no longer worry about raisins. or for that maner about brown sugar and Jello, which her two sisters gleefully copped. but I am still concerned about my "Caution: Staning Dieter" T-shirt.

My daughter loaned that shirt to her friend without my pennission. but since her friend graduated from high school and moved 10 Hawaii without returning my shin, for all intents and purposes I ha,e aJ.,.,ays felt that my favorite shirt was stolen.

When it tu rned up missing, I hounded my children for v.eeks until one of them finally admitted that she had loaned it to Buffy . For the next three years I was unrelenting m the pursuit of my favorite green shirt, and I did evcrthing in my power to get it back. Although 1 still miss it. I gave up insisting on its return after se\'cral people assured me that since n is no,\ all faded and stained, I would no longer enjoy v.earing it even 1f it were returned.

Since my "Caution: Starving Dieter"' shin disappeared. I ha, e laid

• rita

hollingsworth down THE LAW to every teenager who slinks through my front door.

"No one," I threaten, "is allowed to beg, borrow or steal one thing that belongs to me." But of course, it has done no good, no good at all.

Neither my girls nor their friends have any respect for T HE LAW, and my sweaters, T-shirts. shoes, pantyhose and earrings, gasoline and food continue to disappear at an ever increasing rate.

Bot I will admit that 1 am more worried about my children and their friends lhan I am about my belongings. Although my kids are not genuine criminals, they have never learned that society has a right and an obligation to insist that lawbreakers are punished.

Last week 1 sat in a classroom and argued with studenLS who felt that it was right to release a man who had escaped from prison after he was accused, convktcd and sentenced to life for murder. Ther reasoned Lhat since he had assumed a new identity, was self-supporting and had not murdered again that sending him back to prison would do no good and would only cost money.

And then I listentd to a man who is willingly and openly breaking the la-.... say, "faen if I get caught, I'll get parole because I don't have a record." And to top lhat off, a friend who had been burglarilcd told me tba: when the suspect .....as arrested Ile said. "Hey, man, I'm not armed, man. I'm on parole."

Ii parents are reluctant 10 use punishment to teach their children that the la"' must be obeyed, "'heo they become adults they \\ill be r~luctant to instst on fines and sentences for big-time criminals. And a society that ts afraid to punish those ind1V1duah who break i~ Jaws will soon learn that its la\\ S have become useless.

(_ _ sc_re_e_n_s_ce_n_e·__,,,;;,,..__) 'Lady Hawke' soars high above sci-fi clouds

by Kurtis Hall

The legacy of a terrible curse, a man's quest for vengeance. and a lo,e that sur· vives despite separation and anguish-these are the warp and woof of the fantasy writer. In Richard Donner's '' Lady Hawke." lhe5e and other clemems come together 10 form a fine fantasy film which, for once. is acceptable for family viev.in,g, despire its PG-13 rating.

The film is set in mediC"Val France and opens with the escape of a young man.

Philippe Gasron, played by ~auhcw Broderick, from the dreaded duugeons of rhe Bishop of Aquila. Gaston is pursued and nearly captured before being rescued by a mysterious manger in black, Etienne de Navarre, played by Rutger Hauer.

In rhe course of the film, It 1s revealed rhat Na,·arre i\ the former captain of the guard of the aforcmenuoned Bishop of Aquila.

Navarre seeks vengeanc-c because the evil and po"'erful bishop, played 10 perf«· lion by John Wood. has cursed Na,arrc and his would-be lover, lsabeau D'AnJOU, played by Michelle Pfeiffer. lsabeau 15 a hawk by day, bccormnga woman a1 sunser. and Navarre is a wolf by night. becoming a man ar sunrise. Thus the 1"0 can nC\er meer nor rouch, though the hawk rravels with Navarre and the wolf "ill come to lsabeau.

The lilm 1s singularly well-done in 1ha1 its elements arc, for the most pan. believable, and ir was made with an eye 10 sensitivity and romance. not simply ,cngean~ or glory like most of the big-screen fantasies . One thing thar ,·astl)' impressed me was the ntm's overall purity; there 1s nose~. no nudity, a bare minimum of cursing, and the violence. while abundant. is not dwelt upon and is quite mild by today's Holl)"'ood mindardl.

One particular moment. the film's finest achievement. tal.es place bel"ecn Navarre

Nuke waste

Poll shows student skepticism

b) Ed Mc Donald

The majority of NIC students fed that Hanford should not b«ome n national depository for nuclear waste. according to an unofficial \urvey con· ducted by the Sentinel Apnl 10.

Appro\lmt11ety 80 percent of the 266 student~ participating in the ~urvey in dicated that they did not think Handford. loc3tcd near Richland. Wash., should be a storage dump for the nauon 's radioactive waste.

BCC3use Hanford is one of three preferred sit.es identified by the U S. Department of Energy (DOE), many local officials in the Inland Empire have become concerned with the possibilit y of a rndioac1i,e accident.

Bfi1lnnini: in 1998, the DOE plans to use both Interstate 90 and the Burl· ington Northern Railroad lines as transpon.ition routes to the Hanford

area.

Foltou. ing the lead by Spokane, the Coeur d'Alene City Council voted Feb. 12 10 form a joint task force to investig:ue potcnti3.I problems which could arise.

About 8S percent of the radioactive waste from eastern sites, destined for Hanford, would pass through Kootenai County, according 10 the DOE. Of that 8S percent, nearly 70 percent would be shipped by trucks using 1·90 as their

tion risks, and that the DOE·s ;wcssment does not take into consideration a<hcrsc road and u.eathcr condiuons throughout the Inland Empire.

"There hi\ c not been 3.11} major accidents with cnsks of I.hat nature on mtcrstatc highways," he told lhc panel.

Joan Mootry, who also offered testimony, suggested that Hanford llnd DOE officitils have not been cnurcl) truthful in the past with the general public.

"The time has come for the DOE to end their 40-year history of nuclear priesthood and secrecy. " route. The remainder would be rravel· ing via rail through North Idaho.

Nurly 68 percent (180) of the SuT\•eyed student.s felt that both of the proposed routes are not sare enough, at the present. for the safe transportation of potentially hazardous materials.

Approximately 78 percent (208) of the students indicated that they were disturbed by the thought of nuclear waste being transported through the area.

Coeur d' Alene City Councilman Steve McCrea went on the record wilh predictions of accidents invohing vehicles hauling nuclear waste despite the promise of stringent precautions by the DOE. ~layor Jim Fromm appointed McCrea in February to ser-·e as spokesperson for the city council concerning the nuclear waste issue.

McCrH was one of 44 persons giving testimony at hearings held by the DOE in Spokane March 13. He testified that in North Idaho response has been overwhelming concerning the issue.

"TI11s particular issue." McCrea said, "has brought more calls and letters from citizen$ than from any other issue since 1',e been on the council."

McCrea said thal he is not comfortable with the complex formula used by the DOE 10 determine safety and radia-

According to Mootry. numero us accidents at Hanford have gone unreported to 1he public, u.hile others have been pla)ed down when an accident has bct!n made k.nown.

"The time has come for the DOE 10 end their 40-)'ear history of nuclear priesthood and secrecy," Mootry concluded.

NIC students also share a feeling of distrust concerning the DOE, according to the sun·cy.

More than 85 percent (227) or the responding studcnt.s indicated that tlley did not fully trust the DOE. and less than 10 percent (26) felt the DOE could be t.ruSted.

According to 'ea! Kellner. the consequences or t.ransp<>rting nuclear "''3Sl.e to Hanford could be de,-astating.

Kellner bases his information upon estimates and statist.ics from the DOE, Idaho Smtc Dcparunent of Transportation tind the Federal Rai lroad Administration.

In aa artk lt published March 22 in the Nickel's Worth, Kellner wrote tha1 present DOE numbers indicate SC'\"en trucks and one special 20-<:ar train u.ill pass through Kootenai County every day of the year for 20 years.

He claimed each truck would carry more radiation than was produced by

the bomb u.hich u. as dropped on Hu-oshuna, and each train would carry more radtation than produced by 34 HU'oshima bombs.

According 10 mte 1ranspona1ion statistics, Kellner said that over the past three years there has been a yearly a,erage of 38 trucks involved in accident.s on 1-90. Dunng th.at same period, Burlington orthcrn has averaged 27 derailments per year not including dcrailmcnts costing the company less

than SS.000.

Kellntr and others sald that each passing truck and train carrying mdioactive waste will emit a ccn.ain amount of radiation.

Kellner charges that everyone and everything within a half mile of the transportation route will be subjected to a higher radiation level which will result in a measurcable but acceptable number of increased cancer deaths. The DOE acknowledges this.

Forum speakers debate press ethics

by John Aughu

North Idaho College presented a trio of speakers March 2S-27 who provided three different perspecmes on the issues of free press, libel and e1.bics.

The NIC Popcorn Forum Symposium, "Public Official Libel Suits and the Media On Trial: CBS n.

General Westmoreland.'' featured a produc:cr, lawyer and reponer, as well as panel discussion grou~ who addressed problems involving complete news gathering and acaJrate prcscntauon.

Opening 1he symposium, George Crile, producer of CBS's ''Sixty Minutes," presented his side oflhecon1rovers1al documcnuiry "The Uncounted Enemy· A Vietnam Deception."

Crlle also relaled his experience in defending the documentary agairut the libel suit filed by Gen. William Wcs1morcland, whom rhe documentary accu~ of suppressing intelligence mrormauon from the pre1idcn1 regarding enemy troop strength.

The New York 1nal lasted 18 weeks and involved 1cs11mony from 36 witnesses at a cost of Olier S7 million. "ll 's qui1e an eitperience 10 appear before a judge and jury who arc set 10 judge your worb and your lire," Crile said.

He odded that there may not be another single piece of journalism 1h01 has been subJccted 10 the scrutiny 1hat l his one had.

Crilt said then' may have been a question of morality involved in the lack of research done in respect to Oen. Wes1moreland's motives for wilhholdmgccnain classified information.

On March 2~. Stephen Klaidman, senior rcscareh fellow, Georgetown University and long-ume JOUI· nalist. pr~entcd his views from a Journalist's stand·

point. Klaidman 's journalism career spanned ::'.3 ycan and included positions on 1he Nev. York Times, the Washington Pos1 and the I ntcrnatio!l3.I Hc:rald Tribune.

Klaidman ts a specialist on foreign poliC). mtlitat) issues and ts currcnll> v.riung a book on eth1ci; in journalism.

"Lnles.s infonn11tloo is presented in 3 way 1ha1 is gcnwncl) useful. it's not 11.orth ~Cl')' much," Klaid· man said. "You ha,e to be able to 1rus1 11."

It is important for the media 10 distinguish bet"ttn public figures, public officials and pri,atc citimu, Klaidman s1rcs~d. The press mus1 make lhe disunction bct,,.een the new<; th:it people ha,·e a right to kno,,. and that v. hich they need 10 kno"' m order to paruc1pa1e m thcir democracy.

Klaidman pointed out that bctng a iournafut doe< not place one abo,c the rest of the citizenry "The press does not get its pri,·iligcs and protection from lhe nght of frtt speech.'' Klaidman said. "It 15 from the rigb1 of a frtt press. Bccnuse II ism tbJ.S area that they are the public's surr~atcs."

He s1a1ed that the './ev, York Times ,-s. Sullivan deci· sion established a new nandard in libel ~uus brought up by public officials.

The decision forces offida.ls 10 pro,e that tnni.'CUJ':1tc news was published with malice and l.no10.ledge that 1he informauon w.u false or tlw II wa.i. published "'ith reckless disregard for the truth. " I belie,, the ullhan decsion stn~es a proper b:uance be1wccn the need for fairness 10 indiv1duals ... and 1hc need to pro1c,;1 the public's access 10 the mfonna.tion th:it ~ absolutely cnucal .•• " Kbidman said.

He added 1ha1 CBS edited the \\'estmorebnd document:tl') in a ":iy 1h:11 dis1or1cd th.e facts.

The final speaker. Anthony Murry. was the chief factual ~arch attome} for 1he plamtilf in the CBS ,s. Westmoreland case. ~lurry ~id he 11.orks for the Capi1ol Legal Foundauon. which ts a non-profit. public interrst la11. firm-a group 1ha1 Crile calll"d an uhra,on,cr\'nt1ve orgamz.:rnon.

"There 'Y:15 no JUSt1ficmion for the l)'IX of hatchet job tlull CBS pcrpc1ra1ed on 1h31 man (\\ cs1morcland) and his command," l\<lurry said. ccording to Murry. the \\ cs1morelnnd 1011.suu and the one concerning Time magazine and Arid Sharon, ha,e nrouscd fenr that a "chilling effect" ma) bem the media and force ne11s agencies :o abandon tn· 1·cstig1111vc repornng.

Murry s:ud, adding that if the medin wants to 1ackJc 1hcsc issues. it should present both sides of the s1ory. or at kasl tell the public that what is being expressed is opinion

Ancient battery baffling; questions charge scientists

by Ed McDonald Some scientists now think that batteries may ha,•e been used long before Al=ndro \ olLO announced nearly IS-0 yean ago that he could produce a continuous elcctrical current wuh v. hat he called an "electrical pile.·· The disco"ery of what appear 10 be a batter)' nearly 50 years ago near Baghdod. Iraq suggcns that anc1c:n1 man may have discovered a way of producing electricity, according 10 NlC archaeology Instructor Richard Snyder.

During a demon.stm ion v.uh a replica of the actual battery for hi~ c, cmng archacolog) dass, Snyder (3id the I S ccnumetcr-high vessel was found in a Parllnan cxca,a1ion sue which date) bad, to appro.\1ma1cl)· 248 B.C The clay vc)sel contains a copper cylinder which i, secured by a la)·cr of asphalt on the bottom, and v.hc:n an acid or al kaline hquid is added, it become:. a funcuorung battery whkh is capable of producing about a half-volt of current, Snyder e~plained to the dnss.

There is now some speculation among a few sc1ent1S1S 1h01 the bauery helps c.~plain the common occurrence or gilded (gold plated) objects in museums around the world. Some gilded objects simpl) cannot be explained, Snyder snid. bttausc the gold coating does not op· pear 10 ha,c been beaten or '"glued"' on some objects.

An ahcrnattvc explanation is that some relics became gi lded through the process of elcctroplaling which would help account for the ba11ery, he said.

The half-volt of current produced by the battery is more than enough 10 elec-

Olympic aesthetics: recharging souls

by Dan Brcedtn All students reach a time in the semester when they ask themseh'es "Who cares?" or "ts school really worth it7" I',•e been there my share of times, but two weeks ago I discovered what the occao and a spectacular sunset can do for a person's soul.

The outdoor recreation group under 1be direction or its dauntless leader, Dean Bennett. spent five days over spring break backpacking and dripping on the Pacific Coast in Olympic National Parl:.

Tht physical attributes of such a trip arc apparent : the muscles gained from hiking wi1h 50 pounds on one's shoulders; the patience involved with building fires out of water-logged wood and wet paper; the balance achieved by "alking rain-soaked boardwalks; the quickness learned from sna1ching one's fingers away from an angry crab; the agility at putting on a rain slicker in a gale force wind-the list is endless.

These benefits speal. for thcmseh•es; however, the aesthetic and ~chological capabilities vastly out·r~~h the phys-ital realms.

Weathcr can never be guaranteed on the West Coast-for obvious reasons.

And C\'Cn though moisture can put a dark umbrella on anybody's sunshine, it has advantages that cannot be overlooked.

Just as precipitation washes clean the forest from dust, acidic soil and humus which litters its scalp, so can it cleanse a person's inner being and rinse from it 1he questions which hinder growth as an individual.

I wtnt to the coast for two reasonsto be alone with my thoughts and to recharge my batteries which had bten nearly exhausted from dealing with the daily pressures of college, the newspaper, grades a.nd life in general.

I was not disappointed.

Unfortunately, there were literally

hoards of people in that section of the country who "ere probably there for much the same reason as was I. In fact there were more people hiking up and down the coast this year than Dean had seen in two previous trips put together.

But after an hour or two the solution wa~ si~ple-1 refused to acknowledge their eXtStcncc and they in turn ignored me.

I've always been a romantic, and I feel people like myself are attracted 10 water and su nsets. And if the: two happen simultaneously then it is as though

The sun, changing gen!lc shades by the second, sullenly dipped into the distant horizon. In the swiftest of clock ticks. it sat poised-teetering on a tangent with the cver<alming sea.

Soon a half-illuminated sphere and ultimately disappearing behind 1hc darkening blue waves. its symphony of

sentinel sports J

our fondest dreams and desires have been fulfilled and we can wish for nothin~ more.

As I stood on that beach and let the rain slowly soak my wool hat and pants.

I watched in awe as the power of the ocean beat shape into the roe.ks resting just orr shore. The foam at my feet, the white nightcaps dressing the distant waves and 1he cry of gulls overhead all combined for a religious experience which many people have an opportunity to see but fe" people really take to bean and use ll for 1heir own cd1fica11on.

Ml Stoses-long since dulled by monotonou> voice:,, shuffled papers and computerized keyboards-suddenly "ere re~urrectcd. I saw the falling moisture masquerading as a super-fine mist, and the rolling w:ives Oceing to shore; I smelled the now purified rur and the cedar-scented forest; I heard the beating of the water against the sand and the scurry of crabs over the rocks; I tasted the salty sea air and the metallic unge of the conuncntal cre.:ks; I touched the: mossy cloak on the trees and the cold moist breeze which shrouded my race.

Theo, as the clouds turned back their covers and 1hc sun fought 11s way into

colors presently slowed as this huge incandescent candle played ils own farewell. And even though the shov. only took a mere scv·en or eight minutes, the standing o,•ation lasted at least -15 minutes longer.

The seals. lying just off shore, seem, ed to be mesmeriied as was I when the finale l'Ume and the curtain dropped on a perrcct concert oi colors and sounds.

01 o note was missed: not an instrument was off key; not a player missed a cue. But yet Lhc audience stood ~ilcnt-mystified and unbelieving at what had just transpired. I wanted to clap, but my hands refused 10 move; I wanted to cheer, but my voice would not respond. Instead, I stood there with my hands in my pockets and my heels anchored 111 the sand. The tide was on its way in-the sur r lapping at my feet.

Two days loter. all but a pan of me came back with the group-the other pan sank that evcoang with the setting sun. I returned, refreshed and recharged. The rain had cleared and cleansed my thoughts. the sunset shed new ins1gh1s into my Ii fc, and 1he ocean beat nc" shape into my philosophies and morals. I am ready once again 10 face the intrepid foe$ which lurk just inside my consciousness.

Late innings crucial to Cards; Treasure Valley next opponent

In co nference--NIC pi1chrr lan Camtron discusses s1rattgy with Clltcher Dean Gra) 11nd Coach Jack Bloxom during 1he nrs1 game or a double-ht11dtr April 12 llll,11in~11he College of S0u1hern Idaho. The Carib dropped both games 9-4 and 1,-1.

If you put enough gas in }our car to 1r11,·e1 JOO miles and the trip )·ou nrc planning is 130 miles long, you've got a problem.

The Cardinal baseball team has b«n faced \\ith .i ~imilar simntion in r~nt weeks. according to Conch Jacl.

Bloxom. ''Al umcs we\c shown 1ha1 \\C can pl.i} prcuy wen:· Bloxom s111d. "The problem is that \\C arc a very poor lateinning ball team.·• Bloxom S11Jd that the cr\L'< of 1he problem comes from the team·~ failure to get kC) outS in the latter ,tag~ of the game. This inability. according to Blo~om. ~,ems from a combinauon of errors and poor performances on the pan of the pitching staff. The pitching problem is renected in the stafrs 7.36 ERA. S"inging the bats. the Cards' team average currently stands at .294 which Bloxom said is not terrible. bu, a long "av from where he would Like ii to be. :.,, we were hilling .310 or .3 15 I'd ha,c 10 be preuy saiisfied with that," Bto,om said.

Kenley Gra•cs. Frenchtown, Mont ., currenrl}' is the Cards' big bat as Bloxom said he has been for most of 1hc i.eason, "ilh a .438 average. Graves Is followed by Jerry Miller, Leo Francis and Todd Bogan who are slugging .37S, .342 and .333 rcspecu,·cly.

On April 20 1he Cards will be on the road for a double-header with league foe Treasure Valley Community College.

NIC defeated TV 9-2 earlier in the year a, the Banana lkll Tournament in Edmonds. Ore., but Bloxom snid that TV

has been playing "e:c1remety well" as of late. " What we have 10 do is prcuy •impll'," Blo,.om said . "We have 10 play beuer. We hn,•c 10 gel bcuer performances out of everybody."

"If not, Lhc sc.ison could end prc11y early." he added.

NIC brought o 10-gnme losing menk 10 a screeching halt on April 13 when the Cards devoured Rick• College 17-2 and 7-4.

On the afternoon, the Cards tagged the Vikmg pitching staff for a total of 23 tuts while the Cardinal hurlers limited Ricks to only 14 during the 1win-bill.

In the first contest, Graves, Bogart and Miller each collected three hits while Francis con1ribu1cd two of his own in the rout.

On April 16 the Cards split a 1win bill wi1h Bl& lknd Community College. NIC 100k the first con1cs1 6-S but dropped 1he second game 5-3.

Card catcher Dean Gray had what assistant coach Jim Hcadlc)' called "a hell of a day'' 01 the plate as he hit fourof-four in the first go.me. Gray's balling spree included a home run and two doubles.

Graves also had a perfect game with the bat as he blasted hits nil four trips 10 1hc plau: including a double and a triple.

Bloxom said the Cards' inability 10 gc1 hus with runners on base cos, the team the second game. This was evidenced by the fact that the Cards left 11 men on base in the first game and stranded 12 in the second.

Aussieball beats USFL down under It's 3 a.m. and the newest member of our household figures it's time for everybody to be up tending to his needs. Since it is my shift, I drop a boule of formula 1010 some hot water and switch on the boob tube while I wait for the milk to warm.

Programming can be pretty bleak at this time or the morning, and while scanning the channels all I am able to come up with is two religious shows. an agricultural report and news. Finally Lhit channel 10 and my late-night friend ESPN. ESPN. the Entertainment and Sports Programming Network. 1s just what its title claims 10 be -entertaining.

The sports covered b) ESPN range from the "meat and potatoes'' of spores such as football, baseball, basketball and auto racing, to such diverse sports as lacrosse, bodybuilding and women's lield hockey.

I thought that we in America had some preuy rough-and-tumble sports, but ESPN introduced me to a game from the land "down under" tha1 mak.-.s professional football look relatively tame in comparison.

Take the nonstop action of soccer and combine it with the full-contact brutality of football and ice hockey and you have Aust ralian Rules Football.

It has taken many hours or viewi ng for me to be able to decipher the rules of the game because at first glance there appears to be no rules at all.

What you have is 1wo teams runmng around on a round field tossing and kicking an object that appears to be a football with a gland problem.

The player in posscsioo of the ball seems to run the risk of having his head or one of several other body parts removed v.ithout the benefit of anesthetic, and all of this is done without pads or any kind! f ans in tht United tales tend 10 be very vocal at their favorite sporting event, but the Aussies arc one up on us. There is a continuous roar that emanates from the stand 1hat is decibels above the best efforts of any crowd at the Super Bowl.

These folks, both on the field and off. arc out 10 have a good time. period . In all the games I

don sauer

I

have seen there has never been one fight between any of the players. Oae guy who had just become a candidate for a new set of dentures dug his face out of the turf and patted the butt of the opponent who just leveled him. You wouJdn·t sec that in any U.S. sport.

I think I may have found a new spring-time favorite that beats the pants off of the USFL and baseball for fast, hard-hitting action. Plus the players seem to be much bet1er spo~ about ~ving their lips ripped off than their AmcriCall counierparU.

Give ESPN a look sometime and catch a session of Australian Rules Football-you may find it a pleasant change from some of the garbage being televised on the major networks.

Spr in g track

NIC qualifies six for regionals

The temperature is rising. the heat is on and the NIC track team is houer than ever.

According 10 Coach Mike Bundy. this year's group of Cardinal traclmers are hard workers and high achievers.

There are presently six team members qualified for 1hc regional compc1i1ion in Rexburg, Idaho. Ma)' 3 and 4.

Dave Shrum has qualified in both the 800- and I,SOO-metcr races, according 10 Bundy. Alan Bracken i.s eligible in the S,000- and I .000-mctcr competition.

John Bentham has also qualified in the S.000 meter.

Three members of the women's 1ea.m arc also preparing for the regional contest. The group includes Marianne Farris in the 400 and 800 meter, Paula Dean in the 400 meter and Karen Johnson in the 3,000 meter.

The women's 4.by-800 meter relay team gained a berth in the NJCAA meet in Odessa, Texas, by

registering n national qualifying time at the :'\loun1 Hood Relays in Gresham, Ore. The team, mnde up of Dean. Farris. Laurie Bristow. nnd Theresa Becker, finished in n time of 9:48.4.

Shrum qualified for lhc national meet in the 800-metcr dMsion and Farris also qualified as an individual by running a 2: 17. 7 leg in the 4-by-800 relay.

According to Bundy, with everyone putting out a diligent team cffon lhe Cards have set two school records.

Shrum qualified for the national meet ... hen he ran a l:52.S. on April 6 in Spokane, Wash .. in the 800-merer race. Farris set a school record with a 2:20.1 in the 800 meter at the Walla Walla Invitational on March 30.

He said that Bentham has a strong chance of qualifying for the national tourney. adding that he is just three seconds away from achieving such a goal.

The team has been preparing for the upcoming meets since earlier in the "'inu:r. According 10 Bundy. the Cardinals have faithfully attended "orkouts. including an aerobics class twice a week 10 which he attributes the team's good physical fitness. ''We've put the most emphasis on distance running," Bundy said. "There lies our best s1rcng1h."

Other meets on tap include comcs1s with Blue Mt. Community College, Treasure Valley and Clackamas.

According 10 Bundy, the Cards will compcrc wi1h other teams which they are not quite familiar with. bur he feels very confident in the team's overall ab11i1y.

Farris should have no difficulties winning the regional championship since she has reached cligibili1y in the 400- and 800-meter disianccs. Bundy added.

"Our greatest ad,•antagc is that the team is composed of mosdy freshman,•· Bundy said. "We'll be that much beucr next year."

Coach of the year award goes to NIC's John Owen b} John Jense n NIC wrestling coach John Owen has wrestling team. Rucker won the national become the second person in National championship in his weigh1 class while Frame finished wnh a rounh place.
