Legislature to consider · student unions

By Gregory Thomas

A bill currently· under consid­eration by the State House com­mittee on Higher · Education could pave the way for the creation of studP-nt unions and the inclusion of those unions in the states col­lective bargaining process.

House Bill 17 57, introduced by Rep. Brian Taniguchi, seeks to amend section 89-6 ot the Hawaii Revised Statutes, which currently excludes students from the collec­tive bargaining process.

The proposed legislation would remove from the list of those

groups and individuals forbidden to . enter the collective bargaining process, "student of a state insti­tution," and "student help," there by allowing these two groups the opportunity to negotiate with the state for higher wages and benefits.

Another bill, also under cur­rently under consideration by the Committee on Higher Education, would drastically affect the salaries of graduate assistants working within the UH system.

House Bill 1750, also introduced by Rep. Taniguchi would ensure that the pay adjustments (raises)

Economist Wali Osman --

of graduate assistants would be "not less than those provided un­der the collective bargaining agreement of the faculty of the University of Hawaii and the community college system."

If passed, this bill would ensure that graduate assistants--who are currently excluded from the col­lective bargaining process, and whose salary increases are con­siderabally less than those given to the UH faculty--would be given the same level of pay increase as UH faculty members, who are al­lowed to enter the collective bar­gaining process.

never the final Word." '' • • • By Ivan Young President Reagan's proposed 46

percent cut in finanical aid and 13.5 percent cut in total federal eductaion for the 1988 Budget should not leave anybody in a hysterical panic, according to Wali Osman, Bank of Hawaii economist and KCC economics lecturer.

Osman points out that the bud­get is only a proposal and the im-

pact on students is too e'arly to judge. "There is no reason for anybody to panic because we are aware of ·similar. proposals in ·the past. What is a proposed in never the final result, the budget has to be passed first."

For a budget to be passed, both houses of Congress and · the Presi­dent must approve of · it.

· However, Osman feels that the

proposed - budget will ~n6t" "~ceive the necessary amount of votes from both houses of Congress to be passed as it is stated.

"There are some provisions in the proposed budget that some

. members of . Congress feel unac­ceptable ·on social, moral, eco­nomic, ethical, religious or, cul­tural grounds. When congressional members reject .certain provisions

of ·the budget, they will propose their own budget."

Currently, the Democrats con­t~ol both houses of Congress~ each house will each introduce its own budget to the President. Under the Democratic control, he notes that the Democrats have shown strong resistance against cutting m the areas of education and research development.

"This will be sort of a statement to the President that we don't like your budget and we are going to present alternatives," Osman said.

If the new proposed budget of the Democrats in the House of Representatives ·and the Senate is close, a Conference Commitee will be fO-rmed. The Conference Com­mitee will then draft a new bud­get t~ the President.

The President's staff will attend the meeting of the Conference Committee and the final budget will be something of a compro­mise.

Simple, yes? But no. What will likely happen is that

proposals from both houses will be rejected by the President, Osman notes.

The result may be a counter proposal by the White House. Unfortunately, the counter pro­posal is a time-consuming process during which the · buget will be continually reviewed by Congress and the White House before an agreement can be reached.

If the budget drags on for too long, the government may be forced to shut down because of no money. There will be no funds for

ABIGfinale for ARCH

On Friday, Feb. 20, the stu­dents from the Adult Residential Care Home Program (ARCH) did their share of celebrating. It was Graduation night for 37 dedicated students.

The graduation ceremonies took place in the Kauila Building at 6:00 p.m. This was the second class to graduate from the ARCH program. The students put in a lot of time, not only in their schoolwork but also caring for patients in their own homes.

After completing the seven credit program, students are now permitted to take care of residen­tial care clients on various levels. The ARCH Program will continue to train students as those that graduated Friday venture out to accomplish greater tasks.

The Karaoke kid

By Julia Kim

In September of last semester, Lawrence Ikezaki, accounting in­structor, was annoyed about the construction noise on DH campus. His students, who could barely hear the instructor, harrassed him to talk louder.

Ikezaki said that at the end of the day,' a day of ' out-yelling the construction, he felt emotionally and physically tired. Tired of competing with the noise, lkezaki decided to buy a karaoke micro­phone. Ikezaki, said that the mi­crophone helps his v@ice travel and he doesn't have to· over-exert himself.

Amy Shinoki, business instruc­tor, calls Ikezaki, the "karaoke kid" because he keeps his karaoke in his little bag and carries it all over campus.

Biology instructors · offer study tips by Felicia May

The KCC Career Development Office presented two speakers at the Biological Study Skills workshop.

Charles Matsuda, biological science ~ instructor, said that science students should consider familiarizing themselves with some Latin and Greek.

"The next time you come across a highly technical, polysyllabic, biological term; .see if you can break it apart and analyze the component terms" Matsuda said.

Another study skill one can employ is imagery.

Matsuda showed a copy of a tyrannosaurus tooth. He told the students to picture themselves on. the balcony, leaning on the rail. In the distance, the student can hear

thuds, footsteps, like in a Godzilla movie. And around the corner comes this 40 ft long, 18 ft high tyrannosaurus.

Frozen stiff, you cannot ,move. Your hands a~:e glued to the rail. The tyrannosaurus comes up to you, reaches out his neck and bites your body in half; like a carrot stick.

"That's an image that will stay with you." he said, "That's how powerful a tool imagery can be; and .why most books have pictures and diagrams.

"Imaging is a good skill because most of the material you have to memorize (in science class) deals in concrete objects that you can see and you can produce an image of," he said.

Sally Costana, Medical Lab Technician instructor, favors the

use of key concepts. · She said research shows that about 50 percent of material read is forgotten in about 15 minutes.

She suggested students read actively to combat boredom and increase retention. Continued on page 11 ·

Financial aid not "dead" yet By Julia Kim

Annabelle Fong, the Director of Financial Aid at UH Manoa, ex­pressed her confidence that the Reagan administration's proposed fiscal year 1988 budget proposal, which would cut large amounts of federal funding from student fi­nancial aid and higher education, will not be passed by Congress.

Cosen's only source of income is $297 a month in disability pay from the state. She has depended on financial aid for virtually 100 percent of her college expenses.

"Without financial aid it would be really hard for most people to get a college education," said Cosens.

"We are the future of America, and an affordable education should be available to all", $aid Daniel Peralta, a UH Psychology student. "By cutting back the bud­get for student loans, the admin­istration is jeopardizing our lead­ers of tomorrow."

Daniel has been receiving two government loans and two grants for · the past ,_5,. years, without which he could not have contin-· ued his education after high school. He worries that the government is trying to solve a long-term problem with a short­term solution.

Streamlining transition to college By Stan Lum

The president of the American Association of Community and Junior Colleges appealed to the UH Board of Regents and the Board of Education to jointly work on adopting a new curricu­lum that would allow secondary education students to obtain a college associates degree by com­pleting and additional two years of high school.

Dale Parnell, who is traveling across the country promoting ed­ucation reform, proposed the "2+2" technical training- program at the Board of Regents meeting last Thursday.

The "2+2" program is a cur­riculum that links the high school system with the post (two year) vocational system in an attempt to make students' transition from one level of instruction to another level smoother. Also, it stream­lines the educational system by eliminating unecessary duplication of course work.

The program calls for the out­lining of course to be taken in or­der to advance toward a post-sec-

. ondary degree. The courses would be taken at the high school level with joint participation from the community college. The program culminates with a Associates de­gree at' the end of the sixth year of high school.

STUDENTS:

According to ·Parnell, the real benefit to the students comes in the shape of comprehension of high school education.

"The current 'General Educa­tion'program does not adequately prepare the student for work or for college. The big problem is that the students don't understand why they need to take math or science or a foreign language. We as educators just tell them that they will need it "later". However, because its not concrete to them, they pass through it as quickly as possible and with very lettle com­prehension of the subject or its purpose. This prograF unlike other reform proposals give meaning to the educational sys-:­tem."

Parnell said that a coordinated curriculum such as the "2 + 2" program gives the student a better understanding of where he/she · is presently in reference to his/her education. This is so because the program offers "focus" artd "connectedness."

"Because the program outlines the- steps that the students should take to receive a degree, it has focus. That is, the program shows them the purpose of their cur­riculum. When they can see the path and where it is taking them, they can connect the present with the future. This gives meaning to their education."

"Hawks and Pines" by the master of agile brushwork, Sesson

Insight into zen By Alice Elaine Mitchell

Mitchell is a student in Japanese literature class taught by Tom Kondo

An interest in things Asian and a daily cross-cultural experience led me to the Honolulu · Academy of Arts current exhibition, "Of . Water and Ink, Muromachi Period (1392-1568)" paintings from Japan. I recommend it for art, literature and history nuts as well as those interested in Japanese or Chinese culture.

"Of Water and Ink" can give a special insight into Muromachi life and Zen culture or at the very least a rest break from the fast paced 20th century life we live today. Several times during its history, Japan turned to China for inspiration,and then adapted Chi­nese things to fit the Japanese character. The Muromachi Period was one such time.

Zen Buddhism became popular and Japanese Zen temples and monasteries became centers of !-;::arr( :.n.g and culture as well as re­iigio:'l.

In the arts, Zen concepts em­phasized subdued color, simplic­ity, serenity a!ld ~pontaneity of expression. A new style of paint­ing, inspired ~JY the Sung and Yuan dynasties of China was cre:­ated mostly by Zen monks; this style became known as suibokuga

"Hui-k'o presenting his severed arm to Bodhidharama" by the master brush artist Sesshu

(pictures of water and ink or monochrome ink paintings).

They painted Buddhist sages, legendary heroes, Zen masters, flowers and birds, but my per­sonal favorites are those of land­scapes which were the major subjects for ink painters during the Muromachi Period. Most were designed to give the monks an escape from reality and a view of a simpler life. The landscapes of­ten show an idealized retreat in natural surroundings, or rocky

·cliffs, waterfalls, bridges and lone travelers on a mountain path or in contemplation. Sometimes there are tall mountains seen through mists, or scrolls showing the changing seasons.

In Japan paintings were pro­duced for both secular and reli­gious buildings where art could be arranged for quiet appreciation for short periods of time and · al­ternated frequently to give the viewers a constantly changing source of aesthetic enjoyment. Because of this careful preserva­tion we can enjoy these treasures over five centuries later. Take a

.break from your · 20th Century life to enjoy the essence Of Ink and Water at the Honolulu Academy of Arts.

The second part will be exhib­ited from Feb. 19 until March 15 and admission is free, a real en­tertainment bargain in the 20th Century!

The rich culture < ·MU:

By Mamoru Kondo

In the history of Japanese art, many people are familiar with the colorful Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock prints of Utamaro, Hiroshige, and Hokusai, which depict the lives of people who lived during the Tokugawa Period (1600-1868). Ukiyo stood for the Chinese characters, "Floating World," which implies a world of pleasure, especially for the merchants who became wealthy during this period of peace. We are less familiar with the paintings of the earlier age, the Muromachi Period (1392-1568 ). This Period was known for a different ukiyo, whose Chinese character meant "lamentable age," because of its sporadic civil wars, including the Onin Rebellion (1467-77) which ravaged the capital , Kyoto.

Yet, we are surprised to . see that, contrary to what we might expect, culture did not wither away, but actually flourished. It

was during this age when the tea ceremony was developed, a new

' type of . poetry, renka (linked verses) became popular, and a new type of drama, noh, became an exquisite art. In architecture, the third Ashikaga shogun built the lavish Golden Pavilion in Ky­oto, while the eighth shogun, Yoshimasa, built the Silver Pavil­ion.

Hundreds of Buddhist temples and monasteries were located in Kyoto, ahd they were the centers of not only religion, but also of learning and culture.

years the painters of earlier ages, like the Sung (960-1279) and Yuan Dynasties (1279-1368). His works are characterized by strong, bold brushwork and expressive linear patterns. We find very lit­tle of the ,.floating,. mountains on clouds, which are characteristic of ipaintings contemporary to this period. Instead, we find flattened surfaces and an almost complete disregard for perspective. He is most famous for his landscapes, of which "Winter Landscape, .. depicting a Buddhist monastery deep in the mountains, is the best loved, but he also painted a few portraits, including one of himself.

The paintings of these artists can be viewed in a special exhibition called, "Of Water and Ink, Muromachi Paintings from Japan 1392-1568," at the Honolulu Academy of Arts till March 15, 1987.

Rare 15th and 16th century hanging scrolls, folding screens, and handscrolls from Japan, titled "Of Water and Ink," are on exhibit at the Honolulu Academy of Arts until March 15. This is the first time many of the pieces have been shown outside of Japan.

The expressions of rmind and spirit found in the canons of Zen culture and .ink paintings (suibokuga) of Muromachi period Japan (1392-1568), combine poetry and painting into an art.

Popularized by the patronage of samurai and courtier classes, this art form flourished after the late 14th century shogunate returned the seat of political power to Kyoto, Japans ancient capital city. The roots of the art are in medieval Japan.

Activities such as mono-awase, (where people gathered to compar~ poetry, flower arrangement and incense) and the decoration of "Shoin" (the library) for social gatherings, both engendered the style of these paintings.

Also appearing are a series of lectures, films and demonstrations of different aspects of Japanese art an culture.

It is almost unbelievable that a collection of Muromachi paintings of this magnitude could be assem­bled from over 50 Japanese muse­ums, temples and private collec­tions. Admission is free. ·

Another form of Muromachi art, the noh drama, can be viewed at The East-West /Imin Center, Jefferson Hall the University of Hawaii Manoa Campus. This will be a special performance by pro­fessional artists who have the title of "Living Treasures of Japan;" they will perform "Hagoromo11

Art to some, destruction· to

"Bombing" found at Kalani High School. Photv by Karen Loeb/

By Karen Loebl

Time 69, Case 24, Triad 3, KRV 64, ERA 10 ... these are names you have probably seen spray-painted on walls all across the island. They are called "tags," and people who paint these tags _ are called taggers. It is one type of graffiti that is becoming more and more popular in Hawaii.

Tagging, and the more artistic "Bombing," is believed to have been spread from New York to Hawaii through the breaking movie "Beat Street."

From New York walls to Hawaii's halls, the spray can has gone the distance. But what is graffiti, and why do people do it?

There are many different types of graffiti. Tagging and Bombing seem to be the most popular. An­other word for "Bombing" is "pieces." This is when a person puts up a mural or picture instead of just words.

"We do it for the excitement and to become known," said one

. ta~ger. "It's a way · of expressing ourselves."

Although taggers and bombers

get a lot of flack for what they do, it takes a lot of talent and work to put up a "piece". Some "pieces" take as long as one to three hours. Also, not everyone has the ability to be a tagger or bomber. You have to have a cer­tain style that only comes through practice and work.

Most tags can be found almost anywhere on the island, · but bombing or pieces can only be found in secluded areas, such. -as on water tanks. A popular piece is the one done for Ice Palace.

Graffiti has become a popular activity, yet it meets many obsta­cles. Spray paints can only be bought by those 18 Y,ears or older.

Since most graffiti artists range in ages from 13 to 17, they must resort to stealing the spray cans. "Racking" is the graffiti term, for stealing. They steal the spray cans from stores, a few cans at a time, and hoard them until they have enough to do a full "piece".

Although graffiti artists have good. intentions with their art form, Mayor Fasi has made ef­forts to put a stop to their de­struction.

"Graffiti Busters" was organized to paint over all the graffiti in the city. It is a volunteer organization, but the paint is costing taxpayers money. Police have also been busy trying to catch as many graffiti artists as they can. Last year

Time 69 has his "tag" up on 5th Avenue. Photo by Karen Loeb/

. February 24, 1987 Page 8

others alone, the police made about 240 arrests for graffiti. _

When a minor is arrested for graffiti, depending on the amount of damage he or she has done, he or she is subject to a fine, and perhaps family ceurt. Minors also stand the chance of being sent to a regular adult court. If an adult is arrested, they could be sent as ~igh as the Grand Jury.

To crack down on graffiti, po­lice have installed cameras in buildings, behind walls, and in light control boxes, so that they can take pictures of graffiti artists at work .

Yet, graffiti .artists still con­tinue to stalk tbe streets of Hawaii. Will it ever end?

Carlotta Kailiawa --

Captured by Japan

By Stewart Anderson

KCC student Carlotta Kailiawa has won a scholarship, one of 40 offered worldwide, to study Japanese language and culture at Tenri University in Nara, Japan.

Kailiawa, who has studied at KCC intermittently for four years majoring in Hotel Operations, had visited Japan on the recommendation of a friend . "I became fascinated by Japan," said Kailiawa. "The natural beauty, the history and the people."

A few days after her month­long trip, she enrolled in a Japanese language course at Tenrikyo church in Manoa. Further enthralled by the culture, she took a Japanese tea ceremony course. It was at this course that one of her instructors, the Rev. Isao Jokura, noticed her enthusiasm and ability. He suggested that she apply to the Tenri University for one of their few scholarships.

She applied and was rejected. Disheartened, she put the idea aside but continued her Japanese studies.

A few months _later the Rev. Jokura approached her again. She

applied and this time Tenri accepted her.

The scholarship provides board and tuition for the two-year course. The academic year is two six-month semesters. Students must not be out later than 10 o'clock at night, drive cars ·or motorcycles, or participate in extra-curricular activities. Also, part of the program includes participation in the Tenrikyo church activities.

"I'm a Catholic," Kailiawa said; "I'm not sure what Tenrikyo is all about, but I'm open-minded to new experiences. The other rules are strict, but they won't be a problem; I'm very serious about studying."

The University is near the ancient city of Nara, which pleases Kailiawa. "I don't like the westernized cities like Kyoto," she said. "Nara is more natural, more Japanese, and -that's what interests me." _

Kailiawa is. an only child and was raised by her grandparents on the Big Island. . She attributes her aggressiveness and adventurousness to this.

"I have a real -go-for-it attitude," she said. She felt she

Dr. Heather Cattell--

had to leave the Big Island to explore. "It was beautiful though. I remember having a job pickiiJg macadamia nuts in the mountains."

She had a special interest in Hawaiiana while growing up. She .danced hula for 12 years . and played ukulele and sang. "I still do ·· sometimes, but _suddenly Japanese culture has captured me," she grimaced and smiled. "I'm Chinese, Hawaiian and Scottish," she said.

"Oh, I love that song," she said as "Wild, Wild · Life" thumped from someone's cassete player~ She started nodding. She continued talking about Japan.

"I'm very interested in Samurai history," she said, swinging her foot. "Especially Miyamoto Musashi. He was a fighter, a )trategist." She told the story of Musashi, how he cleverly defeated opponents with _a stick. She swung her long arms to iUustT'lte.

''Bam! · He would take them by surprise," she said, slamming her hand down on the table. She stood up, five feet ten, and took up what appeared to be ·a stance of offense, her fists clenched in front of her. Had she not been

smiling she may have appeared threatening. .

"In his book, Miyamoto shows how this stance can be used, not only in fighting but in other situations of life." She threw her arms out and s.at down.

"He was an amazing person. He actually existed," she said, widening her eyes. "He had a go­for-it attitude too."

Kailiawa has taken three Japanese ·language and- literature courses at KCC. Apart from her pure interest in the language she feels that being able to speak it will be useful when she enters business.

"More and more Japanese businesses are springing up, expecially in Hawaii," she said.

Kailiawa leaves for Tenri in March.

·· · "I enjoyed KCC," she said tapping the table with a pen in time with the Talking Heads. "I messed up my first semester but I started taking school more seri­ously. I work hard, I take one day at a time and enjoy life." She leaned back and smiled, "I'm not in ·a race."

From high school dropout to Ph.D. By Milton Miyasato

She sits in her spacious, fully carpeted, air conditioned, Bishop Street office overlooking much of east Honolulu.

She has bright .hazel eyes, flowing red hair, and smooth fair skin. Her walk is a combination of energy, grace, and . elegance. She speaks with an engaging up­per crust English accent that hints of. old British aristocracy. She is noted psychologist Dr. Heather Cattell.-

Cattell currently enjoys a suc­cessful clinical practi<;e-·· but the road there was a struggle.

It all ~tarted back in 1970 when she was Heather Shields. After, dropping out of high schoor in England, "quite a few years ago,'• as she puts it, she dedded to go back to scliool.

She enrolled here at KCC in the fall of 1970, her first time ever in college. By then she was a single p;trent w~th thx:ee chilqt:en work-

ing her way through school. Needless to say, it was a most

difficult _time for her. "I got a student loan and was on college work-study and that helped a lit­tle because I was really struggling financially."

Two years later she transferred to Manoa, where after another two years she graduated with hon­.ors (Phi Beta Kappa). But she ~

didn't stop there. She continued to work full time while going .,t9 school. In · '77 she got her M~ste·~·~ degree and after anot_hef. ·:·3.t~o years, she got her Ph.D. il).. psy­chology.

In her practice now, ,_~ Cattell specializes in women underg9ing major changes in their -lives· as well as chemically dependent persons. "I enjoy working with people making major life transi­tions and have strongly recom­mended KCC to them."

Perhaps it's because of the ex­periences she's been through~ Family problems were the reasons she originally dropped out of high school. "There was a lot going on in my family during my adoles­cence which distracted me from school, and nobody asked me what was going on." Now she wants to help other women "rewrite their failure scripts. I believe that any­one can change their lives for the better~ They just need to reassess why they did poorly in school. ~

Sometimes it takes counseling but sometimes all it takes is making a brand new start."

Cattell attributes her experience here at KCC with having a pro­found impact on her success.

"It took determination, but I attribute my motivation .to con'£. tinue my education to the boost I got at KCC.

J oli Kansil:

World traveller and game inventor By Ron van der Linden

As a world traveler, Joli Kansil is probably the record holder in the state, with visits to 157 coun­tries under his belt; and as a semi-professional game inventor and player, Kansil ranks among the best in the country.

Kansil, having previously lived in Mexico and France, moved here 20 years ago from New York. Since then, he has travelled the world many times over. ·

At age 17, Kansil invented a two-handed bridge game. · Thus, "Bridgette" was born. It was through this game that he came

WAITING FOR A RIDE - J9li Kansil in Central Park in the Big Apple.

into contact with the bridge . world's legendary players, includ­ing the late . grandmaster Baron Waldemar Von Zedwitz and Os­wald Jacoby.

In the field of games, Kansil has made crossword puzzles for the New York Times and written a book on backgammon strategy. Kansil also founded the Honolulu Backgammon Club, has organized backgammon tournaments, and was once the state champion. Most recently, he placed third and sixth, respectively, at tournaments in Japan and Switzerland.

Critically acclaimed as a game inventor, Kansil has two games in the Games Magazine Hall of Fame: "Bridgette" and "Marrakesh". The latter game uses names of cities in Morocco and also incorporates "Casablanca's" 'Humphrey Bogart. Kansil has even sent this game to Morocco's King Hassan II.

, "Itinerary", a board game based on travelling, is somewhat autobi­ographical. In this game, players must travel to a specified number of countries and return home be-

fore anyone else does. Kansil frequently travels to the

. mainland and abroad for both .business and pleasure. · Among trips to the mainland, he visits the ~le at Games Magazine in New York and attends Action on Smoking and Health (ASH) meet­ings. As a result of ASH, he has been involved in getting legisla\.. tion passed for non-smoking su­permarkets and persuading restaurants to accomodate non­smokers.

Kansil directs HINO (a non­smokers group) and runs his mail­order game company, Xanadu Leisure, which was named after Samuel Taylor Coleridge's "Kubla Khan" poem.

Despite the demands of his business, Kansil still finds time to raise his 10-year-old daughter and to travel. His most recent addi­tion to his roster of countries is St. Pierre and Miquelon. Among the trips he has taken (usually off the normal tourist routine) are a cruise on the HMS II, an expedi­tion to Antarctica, tours through China and Russia, and knapsack­ing in Mexico and Indonesia.

KCC student vvins· big on

By Carl Sanche

Game shows are nothing new to KCC student David McDonough, who won $23,217 in prizes on Wheel of Fortune last September:

"I've been designing and building model game show sets since I was 10 years old," said McDonough an avid game show fan who subscribes to TV Game Show magazine.

So, when auditions for Wheel of Fortune came to Honolulu in February 1986, David naturally tried out. Competing against roughly 1 ,000, others McDonough survived a written test and three trial games where participants play for a few minutes ' with eliminations after each round. Several weeks later, David received his final notification in the mail. "I was ecstatic," said McDonough. He attributes ~is selection to his enthusiasm for the game.

McDonough felt a responsibility to be an entertaining contestant. While on the air he was aware of the cameras and blocking, even giving an occasional shaka to the camera.

McDonough also knew how to play the game well enough to win every puzzle and the bonus round

of his first show, totaling $17,000 in prizes, including a new Pontiac Sunbird. On his next two shows he won an additional $6,000, retiring a daytime champion.

The question most frequently asked of him is about the appearance of Vanna White. McDonough said that she is even prettier in person, she sheds her glamorous background and bei~g very down to earth, he said.

McDonough (inset) ih a car he

won on The Wheel of Fortune. Photo by Carl Sanche

David won 25 prizes in all, including a car, a trip to Australia, furniture and three TV's. For tax purposes, David hired a CPA and saved a lot of money, only paying $8,000 in taxes.

McDonough, who hopes to pursue a career in scenic design, finds game show sets a particular design favorite because of all the creative possibilities (flashing lights, buzzers, moving sets and

"Wheel of Fortune" spinning turntables) added to the unscripted drama they offer.

In the 1950's, game shows dominated television, and even today fill the morning and early evening hours of most television

· station programming. The best game shows, according

to David, are "Jeopardy" for its

longtime T.V. standings and high intellectual standards, and the "Price is Right", for its spontaneous choosing of contestants and ingenious format.

David, who is still waiting for his prizes, said that playing the game was the best part--winning was just the gravy.

Costana said that if half the study time is spent reproducing and regurgitating what was read, students would be able to retain twice as much information as the students who just read.

"Take breaks when you feel you are unable to stay with the material," Costana said. · ..

Costana recommended the book "Getting, Straight A's" by Gordon Greene because "it covers many basic study skills," she said.
