Author telling Albert Lea strike from other side

WINONA, Minn., Nov. 15, 2001 -- The author of a book on working-class Minnesotans caught in mid-20th century labor strife, Cheri Register, said many chroniclers of the period overlook the workers. "Most people who read about the strike hate unions but only because what is often portrayed are the casualties and other bad that happened during the strikes, not why the union went on strike." Rehister told a Winona State University audience. "Supporting a family on $7 an hour is very hard to imagine." Register, 14 at the time of the Albert Lea, Minn., strike against Wilson's, said her book, "Packinghouse Daughter," is drawn from her experience witnessing the effects of the strike firsthand. It was a major influence in her life, she said. Reporter: Everlyn Ochwal Background: "Packinghouse Daughter" author

Moralists push county for adult-biz limits

MORSE Profile checks, health checks advertising limits

WINONA, Minn., Nov. 15, 2001 -- Moralists put up a fight against the Third Street porn shop to Winona County Planning Commission. A leader of the anti-porn STOP organization, Therese Bernadot, said the commission should go beyond limiting where porn shops are located. "Location of the porn shop is not enough." Bernadot said, calling sexually oriented businesses a threat to the community. At issue was a proposed ordinance requiring sexually oriented businesses to be at least 1,000 feet from residential areas and any other adult business and at least 1,500 feet from any church, school or youth facility. STOP member Joe Morse said the ordinance leaves out consideration of playgrounds, parks, schools, and libraries being near an adult business. Morse proposed a background check of adult business owners and a periodical check by the Public Health Department to see how the business is run. Morse also asked for control of offensive signs and billboards advertising the porn shop. Twenty-six poeple attended the hearing. The commission will discuss the proposed ordinance further Dec. 20.

Holstad: Northern Sun can bask in WSU berth

HOLSTAD Now a drawing card

WINONA, Minn., Nov. 15, 2001 -- Winning an NCAA regionals berth is a signal that the Winona State University football program is attracting student-athletes who are able to compete at a level not seen before, said Athletic Director Larry Holstad. When a team in the Northern Sun conference makes a NCAA post-season tournament it improves the reputation of the entire league, Holstad said. Coach Tom Sawyer agreed: "Getting national recognition like this adds to the entire conference's recruiting efforts." Sawyer expects around 14,000 fans for Round 1 at the University of North Dakota, including 2,000 to 3,000 Winona State fans. The team leaves Friday morning for Grand Forks and will practice at 5 p.m. in the Alerus Center. NCAA rules allow 52 players to dress for the game.

WINONA, Minn., Nov. 14, 2001 -- Moralist Therese Bernadot called for a show of force at a County Planning Commission meeting at which an anti-porn ordinance is on the agenda. "Even if you choose not to speak at the meeting, your presence would speak to the commission," Bernadot said. Date: Nov. 15 Time: 7 p.m. Place: 177 Main St. Bernadot's group, STOP, suffered a constitutional blow from a Minneapolis federal judge in its crusade against the Third Street porn shop over the summer, but, she said, the fight must go on. "You may feel you have had enough of the issue of sexually oriented businesses. But as long as these types of businesses exist and as long as they continue to threaten the very fabric of our community, silence regarding this issue is unacceptable."
