Funds needed to help more people After spending the evening listening to more than 40 voice mails, reading a multitude of emails and going through stacks of the week’s letters requesting our assistance, I found myself slumped over at my desk. It all was so overwhelming. Where I usually can overcome my feelings of sadness and heartbreak and provide the solutions to help those in desperate need, tonight I couldn’t seem to shake these feelings. The many problems and tragedies that had been shared with me tonight seemed more devastating than usual. The reason I was feeling so helpless was my inability to help these many fellow creations turning to us for assistance due to lack of funds. I read situation after situation knowing I could not help these people. I could not prevent their eviction. I could not restore utility service. I could not help with a car repair or purchase food, toiletries and household necessities for those in desperate need. I had to listen to voice mails with tear-filled eyes as I heard desperate crying coming from the people leaving the messages. I continued to sort through the mail. A volunteer helped me to research each request

SAL DIMICELI Columnist

for authenticity, online records, previous assistance if any, and we placed them in piles according to severity of need to organize my spontaneous visits. I looked over to see the volunteer had tears in her eyes that she quickly tried to hide. I had shared with her that our funding was too low to help any of this week’s requests. She picked up a letter and said, “I know, but listen to this one.” She continued to read a letter containing the details of a family struggling due to the mother having a life-threatening illness. The father had lost his job due to the many days taken off work to care for her and the three children, one of whom is severely handicapped. No one ever plans for a life-threatening illness to happen to them. How much can you prepare for these life events that alter your family and finances? When you are already working paycheck to paycheck, there is not much room for savings to prepare for a lifethreatening emergency. I

had to tell the volunteer to place that one at the top of the pile for when we hopefully received our next donation or I am able to successfully sell another property through my real estate company. This year has been better for real estate sales, and I thank God for the opportunity to work every day. The requests for help for those in desperate need always seem to outpace the flow of income. Then I read a letter that contained the details of a senior citizen who was raising her two grandchildren due to the death of her son and daughter-in-law in a car accident after being hit by an uninsured drunk driver. She did not have enough money to purchase both children winter coats and boots. They also were behind in their utilities and rent after the grandmother had gotten pneumonia and been in and out of the emergency room several times. This grandmother and grandchildren would too be put in the pile waiting for donations to cover the assistance. One of the voicemails I listened to contained the call-back information I was waiting to hear. A mother and two children we had been providing emergency shelter for had found an affordable apartment. She hesitantly

Lastly, to the over 800 people who attended, “THANK YOU” for your love, prayers and support for our son and our family.

reminded me I had promised to provide first month’s rent and security deposit if she was able to secure a job as well. I heard her cheerful message, “Guess what Sal? I got a job! I am so excited! Now the kids and I can have a real home again! Thank you! Thank you!” Her excitement would have been contagious if it was not for the feeling of helplessness I felt knowing we did not have the funds to provide this opportunity. Since I never break a promise, I would provide this assistance, praying to God we would receive the funds necessary. How could I let this mother who had obviously worked so hard to do what was necessary to help her family, think we had forgotten our promise? We would put an end to their ordeal of not having a place to call home while living in a very small motel room. Another letter in this week’s mail included a request for assistance written by an apartment manager for an elderly widow living in a lowincome apartment complex. The letter writer shared her concerns for this senior citizen including the need for a bed, she was apparently sleeping on an old recliner that looked like it came from someone’s trash pile, and her living in constant pain due to needing some dental work done that she could not afford. This was what the apartment manager asked for, but from years of experience I knew her needs were probably much more than just these. As is often the case, I usually find much more need than our fellow Americans even request our help with. When letters ask for help with rent, I usually also find food insecurity, children without sufficient clothing, needed car repairs and utilities on the verge of disconnection. I again added another letter to the top of the waiting for assistance pile. I founded The Time Is Now to Help more than 25 years ago with the ideals of making sure every penny donated would be used 100 percent to help the poverty stricken. To this day we still operate under these principles. I was tired of reading financial reports from charities I was contributing to and seeing a large portion of my donation going to administrative and marketing costs. I

wanted my donations to go to the cause they were presenting in their mailings and brochures. I was so disappointed to find out that most of the charities I was donating to were using my funds to pay their staff, or even worse for more mailings containing useless free items that try to guilt you into donating even more. Over the years I have tried different fund-raising ideas and campaigns, never using the free-item guilt tactic, but not one of them has worked as well as just asking for help when needed. It is also the one thing I have the most difficulty doing in all my nonprofit organization duties. I always provide all the operating expenses, telephones, office supplies, postage, administrative costs and much more as I never want a penny of anyone’s donations to be used for these expenses. Since I know I cannot continue this mission without all of you, I am asking now for your help. The requests far outweigh our finances. We find ourselves entering a very special holiday season. This is supposed to be a time of happiness and joy. Together we can make it even more special by caring and sharing, removing the pains and suffering of those living in the desperate fears of poverty. I always feel, for those of us that are capable, it is an opportunity for us to show our feelings for our fellow creations making our creator proud. Doing good makes every day, every season even more special by living up to our true heritage of loving one another, especially for those that we expect nothing in return. Please join us in creating goodness here on earth. I thank all of you every day for your support of The Time Is Now to Help. I hope you can join me in continuing our good works together, ending the pains of poverty for many in need. Thank you and God bless you.

Holiday heroes By Anne Trautner STAFF WRITER

When Twin Lakes Police Officer Kevin Saunders called certain students out of their classrooms at Randall and Lakewood schools, the youngsters were nervous. All 24 summoned children were afraid they had done something wrong. When Saunders told the students that they had been picked to go on a shopping spree through the “Shop with a Hero” program, the youth breathed a sigh of relief. Then they reacted as if they had won the lottery. A couple girls kept saying, “Why did I get picked? I don’t understand why I got picked.” “They were just shocked that they got this opportunity,” Saunders said. Shop with a Hero School staff selected students with good performance in grades 4K through eighth grade to participate in the program, which is organized by the Twin Lakes Professional Police Association. Each child received $150 in spending money. All the money was raised through

donations from local businesses, with a major donation from the Genoa City Lions Club, said Saunders, Shop with a Hero coordinator. The day began at the Twin Lakes Fire Department, where students and heroes (Twin Lakes police officers, emergency dispatchers, EMTs and firefighters) enjoyed donuts and refreshments. Each student was paired up with a hero, and the duos went shopping at the Lake Geneva Wal-Mart. Wilmot High School student photographers Ashley Smith and Charlie Mohring documented the event with still shots. While the children and heroes shopped, parents and guardians waited in WalMart’s McDonald’s, where they received free soda and coffee. When children finished shopping, volunteers from Randall School and Lakewood School, as well as family members of the heroes wrapped the gifts that children had purchased. “By the time we actually brought the child back to the parent, if they bought

Mom and Dad a present, it would be wrapped, so they wouldn’t know what it was. Then they can surprise them on Christmas,” Saunders said. After the shopping excursion was completed, Driftwood restaurant in Twin Lakes hosted a free pizza party for all the children, their families and the heroes.

A good light “It was a whole morning of getting to associate with the children in a good light,” Saunders said. “It is a way to connect with the kids of the village in a different way from sometimes how they normally see us coming to calls. It’s a good environment for us to connect with them.” By having one-on-one contact with the children, the heroes form a bond with the youth. And the children remember that bond, Saunders said. “We have been out shopping at Richter’s Marketplace, and they come up to the heroes and say hi to them because they know them from the Shop with the Hero event,” Saunders said. The bond has helped in cases where the heroes made

emergency calls at people’s houses because somebody was ill, Saunders said. “The rescue squad, fire and police were all there, and they have recognized one of the heroes from the Shop with the Hero event. (Families) have actually asked if they could have one of those heroes because they were treating a family member. They remembered this hero, and that hero came and talked to the child and calmed them down while mom was being treated,” Saunders said. In addition to sponsoring the program, the Twin Lakes Professional Police Association funds the National Night Out on the first Tuesday of August every year. Emergency personnel give demonstrations at the event, and fire trucks and police cars are displayed. “It is another chance for the kids to interact with the police and fire department not on an emergency call,” Saunders said. Money lessons This year, about $3,600 was raised for the “Shop with a Hero” program, enough to sponsor shopping

sprees for 24 kids. A total of 286 children have now shopped through the Twin Lakes Shop with a Hero since the program started in 2004. In addition to getting to know the heroes, the children in the program learn how to budget for buying gifts. “We work with them, we have a sheet, we keep track of how much they are spending,” Saunders said. Some of the youth have a method to their shopping madness. “Some of them do a little pre-shopping and go around and plan things out the day before, and kind of have a list and a strategy down,” Saunders said. Those shoppers finished in about 20 minutes, while others took about 40 minutes to pick out gifts, Saunders said. Still, many of the heroes give a little extra money out of their pocket so that the children can buy everything they want, even if they go a little over in price, Saunders said. One firefighter, who likes to remain anonymous, gives an extra $150 out of his pocket to one child each

year. That lucky shopper gets to purchase $300 worth of merchandise. True heroes All of the heroes look forward to donating their time to participate in the event, Saunders said. “We enjoy doing this. It is kind of our thing we love doing every year,” Saunders said. It is very rewarding, he said. “I like getting the time to interact and to getting to know the kid,” Saunders said. “I watch them pick gifts out for their family and themselves, and get to see the joy on their face.” Many of the children spend most of the money they receive on others, Saunders said. “Some of the kids spend only a quarter of the money on themselves. They want to buy their friends and families things,” Saunders said. One child spent more than $100 on toys that the child donated to patients in the Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin. “Some of these kids are very selfless,” Saunders said.

Numbers In Nature: A Mirror Maze New permanent exhibit at Museum of Science and Industry explores patterns and mathematics in nature

“Numbers in Nature: A Mirror Maze” is an interactive and immersive new permanent exhibit at the Museum of Science and Industry, Chicago that will expose and explain the mathematical patterns that abound in the natural world – from the delicate nested spirals of a sunflower’s seeds, to the ridges of a majestic mountain range, to the layout of the universe. The centerpiece of the exhibit is a 1,800-squarefoot elaborate mirror maze in which guests can lose themselves in a seemingly infinite repeating pattern of mirrors. The exhibit is on the Museum’s Main Level and is included in Museum Entry. “The museum is thrilled to open an exhibit that illuminates mathematics and numbers in fun, interactive way,” said Kurt Haunfelner, MSI’s vice president of exhibits and collections. “By showcasing that fascinating numerical patterns

are all around us, we hope that both kids and adults alike will become inspired to discover more about how math is a strong and important presence in our daily lives. It’s a vital part of supporting STEM education for our youth.” Introduction to patterns As visitors enter the exhibit, they will be greeted by lenticular images that animate imagery from nature – showing the many repeating patterns that are easily identifiable – if one knows where to look. From there, an immersive theater will present a large-format media piece with stunning footage of nature, the human body and even art and architecture. Animated computer graphics will be superimposed over the images to uncover the mathematical patterns – spirals, the golden ratio, Voronoi patterns and fractal branching

– beneath these familiar objects. The film will help explain why these patterns exist and how they show themselves in various facets of the natural and designed world. Building from the examples in the theater, an interactive area will allow visitors to identify patterns that surround them every day and to create numerical patterns of your own. Manipulate images of snowflakes, honeycombs, flowers and more – triggering the geometry that underlies those things to appear. The Mirror Maze To introduce visitors to the centerpiece of the exhibit – the mirror maze – a hidden pocket door will open that exposes a sea of equilateral triangle chambers that repeat in a dizzying array of mirrors. This fascinating, yet challenging, space will envelop visitors within what appears to be an endless pattern – 1,800 square feet of it.

Dead ends are scattered throughout, and hidden within the 10-minute experience is a small secret

room. Finding it will reward museum patrons with bonus puzzles and imagery to further expand the connection to mathematics.

Hands-on discovery Upon leaving the maze, visitors will have more opportunities for hands-on activities in a final gallery. These include the chance to: • Draw patterns on a digital screen and see real-world objects revealed that show that same pattern. • Use templates to try to align a spiral pattern to a series of objects from nature and the man-made world. Which objects come close to the spiral and which don’t? • Learn how patterns are used to make computer-generated landscapes in movies. COURTESY MUSEUM OF SCIENCE AND INDUSTRY Hi-Liter • Look through an eyeA rendering of Numbers In Nature: A Mirror Maze, a new 1,800-square-foot permanent exhibit at the Museum of piece to directly observe Science and Industry, Chicago, in October 2014. how blood vessels branch within the human eye. • Compare similar patterns that appear in the human body and in nature. • Step in front of a large mirror and strike various poses while a projection reveals the patterns and proportions in the body. • Compose a piece of music using symmetry: vary a single musical motive and hear the creation played backed. • Create a musical scale with mathematical proportions using a playable harp. • Discover and compare similar patterns in architecture from varying parts of the world – built millennia apart.

Parkside names new dean Lesley Walker has been named dean of the University of Wisconsin-Parkside’s College of Arts and Humanities. Walker previously served as associate dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences at Indiana University South Bend. She begins her new duties July 1. “With Dr. Walker’s vast experience in the liberal arts and sciences, she brings a fresh and very global perspective to UWParkside,” Provost Fred Ebeid said. Walker earned her undergraduate degree with a major in French and a master’s degree in French literature from Indiana University. She earned a Ph.D. in comparative literature from the University of Minnesota. “I am excited and energized by the opportunity to lead the College of Arts and Humanities at UW-Parkside,” Walker said. “I look forward to working with an excellent faculty and

staff to provide a top-notch education for our students.” Walker joined the Indiana University South Bend faculty in fall 1997 and chaired the World Languages Studies Department from 2003 to 2010. She also served the university as acting chairwoman of the history department, interim director of women’s studies, and president of the Academic Senate. Walker led a university-wide initiative to create a first-year experience program aimed at improving student retention. She has taught courses in French language, literature, and culture at all academic levels. In addition to French studies, she has an abiding interest in cinema and African literature and has developed courses in these areas. Walker’s research interests include 18th-century French studies, specifically women’s

art and literature. “A Mother’s Love: Crafting Feminine Virtue in Enlightenment France” was published in 2008 by Bucknell University Press. Since the appearance of her book, Walker has published several articles in French devoted to late 18thand early 19th-century women writers. Working with a colleague from the University of Notre Dame, she organized an international conference on the French Revolution that welcomed scholars from France, the United Kingdom, Canada, Japan, and the United States. In 2012, Walker earned the Indiana University South Bend Distinguished Research Award. In 2002 and 2009, she received the Indiana University Trustees’ Teaching Award. The UW-Parkside, one of 13 four-year campuses in the University of Wisconsin System, is at 900 Wood Road in Somers.

Several years ago, Silver Lake residents and Salem residents began looking into establishing quiet zones railroad crossings. However, it appeared from preliminary information that the process may be extremely costly. Town Administrator Pat Casey gave the Town Board an update on the issue at the Dec. 15 Committee of the Whole meeting. In preliminary discussions with Kenosha County, Casey was told that the county would be happy to let Salem pay for the changes to the crossings – which to meet federal safety standards – could $400,000 each. That would include six crossings in the town – one at Highway JF, Highway C; 256th and 264th streets; Camp Lake Road and 76th street in Shorewood. Casey said that in order for quiet zones to be effective, most of the crossings would have to be done. Specifically, Casey talked about special assessments for railroad crossing updates. The assessment could apply to all landowners with property 1,000 feet or a quarter mile from the crossing. Over the years, whistle rules have changed and the number of trains traveling though the area has increased. According to town supervisor Dennis Faber, the number of trains each week was at about 25. music starting at 7 p.m. from Michael Tafoya’s Lost Boyz. Food and drink specials will be offered. Wilmot Mountain’s Ski School and Ski Patrol will be put on a torch light parade on the slopes. Children will have an opportunity to participate in their own light parade outside of the main lodge. • Ring In The New Year at the Y, Kenosha YMCA, 7101 53rd St., Kenosha, (262) 6549622, 7 to 10 p.m. The Y hosts a family-friendly New Year’s Eve party with a variety of activities for all ages. Activities include swimming, Zumba, games, rock climbing, face painting, crafts, sundae bar and gym time. There will be a simulated countdown at 9:45 p.m. to ring in the new year. The fee is $10 per person and $20 for families.

dicate. McNaught took on the strip debuting it on April 19, 1930, and by 1948 it was one of the five most popular newspaper comic strips. At the top of its popularity, the strip appeared in 900 newspapers. The word palooka was used to describe an inept fighter, so it was interesting that Fisher chose the name Joe Palooka for his fighter who was described as the heavyweight champion. Palooka’s adventures often incorporated popular actors and singers into the strip such as one written in 1949 that had Palooka playing golf with Bing Crosby and Bob Hope. During World War II, Palooka joined the service to protect his country by fighting the Nazis. Franklin D. Roosevelt and Harry Truman also made appearances in the strip. Fisher was known for using his character to help sell War Bonds to help fund the war. Fisher made his home in the new community of Edithton Beach – now know as Carol Beach in Pleasant Prairie. His home was on South Lake Shore Drive and like many of the original homes in the area was a large mansion. It was here that he drew the comic strip series. Perhaps it is because of his residence in Wisconsin that Joe Palooka’s girlfriend was a cheese heiress.

Now, there are about 27 – per day. Casey concluded that the need now was to get through the road paving and then look at quiet crossings again, stating that the special assessment was an option. Salem isn’t the only area community dealing with quiet zones. In 2013, the City of Burlington temporarily lost its quiet zone because of a mistake in paperwork. The city regained the exemption about three months later after making needed modifications on the fly to meet federal safety standards. Fire impact fees may be resurrected Shortly before the national economy went south, taking various state economies with it, the town was considering impact fees for fire service. Currently, the only impact fee the town places on new construction is for parks and those fees are on residential only. That includes parcels of property for parks in neighborhoods. As the economy begins to pick up, especially in Wisconsin, Casey said there is renewed interest in fire impact fees. Businesses would be included in these impact fees. In the past, town planner Pat Meehan had conducted a study regarding these fees and Casey will come back to the board at a later date with current information about fire fees in nearby areas.

Striving to be the greatest academic athletes in the world The Wilmot Union High School academic decathlon team is bringing “Panther Pride” to the school in a way other than athletics – and on a national scale, too.

Wilmot’s academic decathlon The members of Wilmot’s team is made up of nine students academic decathlon team recently and three alternates. On the won their local competition and team, three students have a grade posted the best score in the state point average above 3.75, three by close to 3,000 points. The students’ GPA is between 3 and students involved are hoping for a 3.75 and three students have a return to nationals. GPA below 3.0. The competition is part of “That’s one of the cool things the U.S. Academic Decathlon, about the decathlon,” Serkowski an international high school said. “I can’t just pick the nine scholastic competition. smartest kids in the school. We This year marks the first time have to pick from an array of that the Wilmot Panthers have grade point averages.” been in first place in the state after As a result, students get to meet the local level competition. new people, he said. The team hopes to advance “The kids that never would through the regional and necessarily talk to each other state competitions. A second in a school this big in the consecutive state title would earn hallway, they now work together the team another trip to nationals, academically,” Serkowski said. which will be held in Garden “We have gotten closer and Grove, Calif. formed friendships,” said junior Last year, Wilmot’s team went Carlie Banchi. to Hawaii and placed second in For senior Johny Weber, the Division 2 of the international best part of being in the group is competition. All but one of those the team aspect. team members graduated last year. “It is amazing,” Weber said. “It’s pretty much a new, “How we are always pushing improving team,” said Don each other to do better and we are Serkowski, who is coaching the always pushing ourselves to do team for the 13th year. “They better for each other.”

All of the students on the team have to take the same tests in 10 different subjects. “The challenging part is finding the kids with a GPA of 2.99 and below that really want to study super hard,” Serkowski said. Because it is a team sport, everybody is in it together, Serkowski said. In order to move on to the next round, the team as a whole has to score well. The students tutor one another because they are all at different levels, and they practice taking tests. “Sometimes those kids that are at the lower level can beat the kids that are at a top level in a test, and that makes their week,” Serkowski said. Any student in the school can sign up to be on Wilmot’s academic decathlon team, which is offered as a regular class at the school. Banchi, a junior who is currently ranked first in the state, first joined the team as a freshman, and it helped her adjust to high school. “I just think it is a really great program,” she said. “I had moved here from Pennsylvania, and finding this team really helped me get involved in school. I think it’s a great thing for anyone.” Preparation Like any athletic team, the

academic team practices to enhance skills. “It’s like learning a sport. It’s like learning to study before you can actually learn the stuff. You need to learn the skills of doing so,” Banchi said. The academic decathlon team is more intense than being on a sports team at school, Weber said. “It’s more taxing because with sports you have your season, it’s however many games, and then you’re done. Acadec is year round. It’s always studying, it’s always improving.” The teammates learn and utilize different types of study skills. Banchi sits with a binder and circles or underlines words, annotating everything. Other students use flashcards. Some write notes. Others discuss things out loud. “Everyone needs to find their own individual thing for studying,” Banchi said. “We’re learning to study, which in the long run is going to help me so much.” In addition, the students learn how to take timed tests. They learn how to rule out answers that don’t make sense. The team meets during eighth period every day. The students studied during the summer and stay after school on Mondays, Serkowski said. They get together

at students’ houses on Sundays and are planning to meet over winter break. “It is very challenging stuff. It’s harder than anything I took in college,” Serkowski said. All of the tests evolve around a central theme. Last year’s theme was World War I, and this year’s theme is New Alternatives in Energy: Ingenuity and Innovation. “We spent the summer reading a novel and really analyzing it,” Banchi said. “We put in about 65 hours total just studying that one subject.” The book, “Pilgrim at Tinker Creek,” by Annie Dillard, fit the theme because Dillard’s voice is energetic, Banchi said. “It was good. It’s a bit hard to understand because it is very philosophical, so it isn’t something you can get the first time, really,” Banchi said. For team member Carl Simmons, the academic decathlon is fun because there are different subjects and they don’t focus on just one thing. The team’s success is due in part to Serkowski, junior Joey Burba said. “Every day in class he reads out loud to help us. He talks things over with us and helps us to understand it better,” Burba said.

Tax prep fraud can be avoided with care

Prepping for tax season is enough of a challenge without having to worry about fraud. But among the many legitimate tax preparation businesses in the state, there are a handful of shady companies that collect personal financial information under false pretenses or that file a customer’s tax return without consent and keep all or part of any refund. The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection asks for help from the public to be on the lookout for questionable tax and loan practices and to report any suspicious activity to the agency. “If you see any questionable tax preparation practices, contact our agency immediately,” said Sandy Chalmers, Division Administrator for Trade and Consumer Protection. “Your formal complaint can help us take quick action against fraudulent tax preparation businesses.” One type of tax and loan scam that has repeatedly surfaced over the past couple of years involves tax preparation businesses filing returns on behalf of consumers without their consent. These businesses initially solicit the consumers’ business with a promise of providing short-term loans. In November, the Wisconsin Department of Justice took legal action against Instant Tax Service, Inc., a Milwaukee-based business, for providing loans to consumers and then filing their taxes without permission and taking exorbitant fees from the tax refunds.

To field an academic decathlon team, a school has to have at least six students in three different divisions: • GPA 3.75 or higher, honors division. • GPA between 3.0 and 3.74, scholastic division. • GPA below 3.0, varsity division. Up to three students can compete in each division, but only the top two scores count. Students who participate take tests in 10 areas: science, literature, art, music, social science, economics, math, essay, interview and speech. Other schools in the Southern Lakes Conference who compete include Westosha Central and Burlington.

Here are some tips to avoid becoming the victim of tax preparation fraud: • Be alert to promotions such as “holiday loans” or other short-term loans that can be used to gain the personal financial information needed to file an individual’s tax return. • Be careful providing personal financial information to a business unless you want the preparer to file your taxes. Make sure you provide clear direction and that the company specifically advises you on whether they intend to file your tax return. • Never sign an authorization permitting a company to file your taxes if you do not want the company to do so. • Never sign a document without first reading and understanding what it says. • Always insist upon receiving copies of all documents that you are required to sign or that identify the terms of a transaction and the charges you will be required to pay. Confirm, before signing, that you will receive copies. If a business does not agree to provide copies, don’t sign. DATCP works with the Wisconsin Departments of Justice and Revenue to detect tax preparation fraud. Anyone suspecting fraudulent activity is encouraged to file a complaint with DATCP. Complaints can be filed online through the DATCP website (http://datcp.wi.gov) or a complaint form can be requested by calling the state’s Consumer Protection Hotline at 1-800-422-7128.

Parkside to present series on the Polish in Wisconsin Wisconsin. Miko , a historic preservation consultant, is the author of “Poles in Wisconsin,” recently published by the Wisconsin Historical Society Press. She holds a master’s degree from Brown University in anthropology. • “The Eviction of the Kashube Fisherman of Jones Island Milwaukee: Then and Now,” Jan. 7: Anne Gurnack will discuss the legal efforts conducted by the Illinois Steel Company in the late 1800s to eject Kashube immigrant fishermen who inhabited Jones Island in Milwaukee. Legal issues associated with these cases will be analyzed according to the arguments presented both by the Illinois Steel Company and the fishermen inhabitants of the island. Basically, these Kashube families were ejected from their land and homes to make way for the Milwaukee harbor. Their lawsuits were eventually lost as decided by the Wisconsin Supreme Court. The last fisherman to leave the island was forcibly removed from his home by authorities in the 1940s. In addition, interviews conducted with descendants of

the Kashube families will be summarized focusing on remembrances and perceptions of the legal endeavors of their ancestors. Gurnack is professor emerita, former chairwoman of the Department of Politics, Philosophy and Law and director of interdisciplinary studies at the University of Wisconsin-Parkside. Her research areas include New York City and Milwaukee Polonia. • “Poland and its History: An Overview,” Jan. 8: Neal Pease provides a summary of the colorful and dramatic history of Poland, from its beginnings more than a thousand years ago, to modern times when the country has emerged from a century of war and tyranny into freedom, prosperity, and democracy. Pease is a professor of history at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, with a specialty in modern Poland and central Europe. For more information, please contact Helen Rosenberg, rosenbeh@ uwp.edu or call (262) 5952146. The University of Wisconsin-Parkside is located at 900 Wood Rd. in Somers.

Here are summaries of each presentation: • “Poles in Wisconsin,” Jan. 6: Susan Gibson Miko tells the story of Wisconsin’s second-largest European ethnic group. She describes their reasons for leaving Poland and traces the history of Polish immigrants as they settled across Wisconsin. From the industrial center of Milwaukee to the farmland around Stevens Point, the Cutover, and beyond, Poles brought with them a hunger to own land, a willingness to work hard and a passion for building churches. Miko discusses the cultural heritage Poles brought from their homeland and the adjustments they made to a new life in
