  • People (con't) The Western Carolinian Page 10 Thursday, April 6, 1989 Whvn in Venice PnrtXX by Jeff Amnions STAFF WRITER The bus ride from Venice to Padua takes about 40 minutes. The cost is about 3000 Luc ($2.30). The road travels through the agricultural countryside past villas that look exactly like an old World War 11 movie. You almost expect to find a machine-gun nest in every bam. When you arrive in the bus station you can grab a taxi to your hotel. If you want lo sla\ ina hotel that is modern and like any American hotel, then stay in the area of the city outside the town wall. This sprawling addition to old Padua looks very much like any American city (except for the add communist parly building and all that Italian The Trip to Patiuci writing). If on the other hand you wish to step backwards through lime several centuries then stay inside the walls. The streets are cobblcstoned and about ten feet wide. Some of the buildings look seven hundred years old and in fact they probably arc. In the center of Ihc city there are three primary piazzas (plazas), Piazza Erne, Piazza Sig- nori and Piazza Frutti. During the day the piazzas are doited with the tables and chairs of the cafes. At night the piazzas take on a magical quality. Sort of a cross between a mall ami a carnival, the piazzas are alive with vendors and the strolling citizenry of Padua. Everywhere you turn you arc bound to see students from the university. The university was founded in 1 220 and is the second 7:10 & 9:10 When three oddballs try to play hardball, the result is totally screwball.

Galileo, Petrarch and Dante taught at the university and Englishman William Harvey discovered the circulation of blood in the Teatro Anatomica (anatomical theatre). A word about the students... American students tend to be tee-shirt and blue jean clad (and that is when we dress up). Not in Padua. Petruchio would be glad to know that fashion is alive and well in Padua. Believe it or not the students attend classes looking as if they were in a fashion show. The Basilica di Sant' Antonio is located in Padua. Sant' Antonio (Saint Anthony) is the patron saint of lost objects. If I have a patron saint, then it must be Sant' Antonio. It's fitting that l got so lost I couldn't find his basilica. One thing I did find, however, was Bar Alexander on via S. Francesco, 38. The bar is a fantastic place to kick back, sip beer and cat panini (sandwiches, sort of). About the beer...Bar Alexander stocks over 100 brands of beer. On a shelf near the ceiling stretching the length of the bar are representative bottles of each brand of beer served. I counted eighty bottles on the first section of the shelf. The bottles range from familiar American brands to English beers to Italian and German beers to some unnamed brand which comes in a bottle shaped like an animal. One thing I noticed that I find curious is that Italians sometimes name thcirbars aftcrsaints. This seems incongruous to mc, but then what do I know? I'm just a dumb American.

RAIN MAN.. * 7:00 & 9:10 SATURDAY MATINEES 2PM Cruelty is deliberately trying to inflict pain, or being indifferent to the suffering of others. The truth is, professional rodeo is a sport made up of people who have the highest regard for animals. Some may care for the animals out of emotion. Others may do it for the money. But one thing is certain: if cruelty were part of the sport, there could be no professional rodeo, because the animals wouldn't be able to perform. The animals can't be made lo perform, cither. If that were the case then a good bucking horse wouldn't cost $ 12,000 or a rodeo bull as much as $20,000. Injuries to the animals arc suprisingly few, approaching onc-pcrccnt jonly among calves. Veterinarians jure cither present or on call when injuries occur to the animals. Dr. Albert A. Gabel, an Ohio State University Veterinarian says, "Rodeo is very well within my guidelines of how ani mals can be useful to humans. Yes, the animals arc roped and wrestled, but injury rates arc low, and studies indicate many of the animals enjoy what they 're doing, or at least undergo little stress." It should be noted that Dr. Gabel has no ties to the sport. Professional Rodeo is a sport that grew from the necessity of handling livestock. We are a profit oriented society, and the better that livestock is treated, the more it is worth when it's sold. Those who mistreat livestock arc soon out of a job, or out of the market. Rodeo is cultural heritage. Those who attack the culture of another arc discriminatory and prejudicial. These arc not nice words. It should be pointed out that many bucking horses arc in their twenties. An age in human terms equal to being seventy-five years old and still a professional athlete. Professional Rodeo is an exciting sport, and wc are fortunate to have it here at WCU. Rodeos are promoted as being rough and tough exercises of human skill and courage in conquering the fierce, untamed beasts of the wild west. In reality, rodeos arc nothing more than manipulative displays of human domination over animals, thinly disguised as entertainment. What began in the late 1800s as a skill contest between cowboys has become a show motivated by greed and profit; in 1981 alone, rodeo events brought in more than $13 million for the participants and the host cities. THE STUNTS Standard rodeo events include calf roping, steer wrestling, bareback horse and bull riding, saddle bronc riding, steer roping and wild cow milking. The animals used in rodeos are not fresh from the range, they are captive performers, relatively tame but understandably distrustful of human beings because of their harsh treatment. These animals are physically provoked into dis- pjavinsi "wild" behavior to make ^ ^\Sfeci <x\ +Kauki -to* the cowboys look brave. TOOLS OF TORMENT Electric prods, sharp sticks, caustic ointments and other torturous devices are used to irritate and engage animals used in rodeos. The flank or "bucking" strap used to make horses and bulls buck is tightly cinched around their abdomens, where there is no rib cage protection. Tightened near the large and small intestines and other vital organs, the belt pinches the groin and genitals. The pain causes the animals to buck, which is what the rodeo promoters want the animal to do in order lo put on a good show for the crowds. BUCKING THE MYTH In a study conducted by the Humane Society of the United States, two horses known fortheir gentle temperament were subject to the use of a flank strap; both bucked until the strap was removed. Then several rodeo-circuit horses were released from a pen without the usual flank straps and did not buck, illustrating that it is the rodeo cowboys and promoters, not the animals, who are the aggressors in rodeo events. THE END OF THE TRAIL Dr. C. G. Haber, a veterinarian who spent 30 years as a federal meat inspector, worked in slaughterhouses and saw many animals discarded from rodeos and sold for slaughter. He described the animals as being "so extensively bruised that the only areas in which the skin was attached (to the flesh) was the head, neck, leg and belly. I have seen animals with six to eight ribs broken from the spine and, at times, puncturing the lungs. I have seen as much as two to three gallons of free blood accumulated under the detached skin." CHOICE AND CHANCES Rodeo association rules are not effective in preventing injuries and are not strictly enforced, nor arc penalties severe enough to deter abusive treatment. There are no rules protecting animals during practice.or no objective observers or examinations required to determine if an animal is injured in an event.
