by Frank Mullen ~ The Colorado Commission on Higher > F.ducation (CCHE) voted April 16 to sup- ~ port the merger of the University of o Colorado at Denver (UCD) and Metro- :;; politan State College (MSC) as proposed by ~ Senate Bill 523. the The commissioners voted 4-3 to support a merger of Auraria 's two largest institutions a(ter hearing over six hours of testimony from college administrators, members of governing boards and CCHE staff members. The testimony concerned many controversial aspects of SB-523- and the commissioners voted on several recommendations of support for State Sen. Hugh Fowler (R-Llttleton)'s reorganization bill.. Most of the speakers who addressed the merger issue spoke against it, and a few urged the CCHE to study the matter further. Only two speakers openly supported the merger proposal- Jerry Wartgow, the executive director of Auraria and Eugene Wilson, former CCHE executive director and presi· dent emeritus of the - University of Colorado. Wartgow told the commission SB-523 is consistent with previous majority recommendations of the Auraria Board of Directors since it addresses ~he major problem at Auraria-one campus governed by four separate governing boards. Fowler's bill would merge the two institutions under a newly appointed governing board. The new board would have respoi1sibility for all centralized functions of the campus and replace the Regents of the University of Colorado, who now govern CCHE Director Lee Kerschner: " ...our intent to supporc SB-523 with respect to merger." UCD; and the Trustees of the Consortium

of State Colleges, who now govern MSC. "People do have sufficient information to make the decision now," Wartgow said. "There is no clear voice up there (at the legislature) ... a decision should be made." Wilson told the commission he has 53 years of experience in higher education. He said SB-523 is an "excellent attempt to move forward. "I look on this bill as a real effort to terminate some of the arguments which have gone on incessantly in higher educ~tion," he said. . Representatives of three governing boards and several state colleges spoke against the Fowler bill in general and the merger provision in particular. Many said the bill, a.s written, would reduce access to higher education, fragment the institutions, unbalance the statewide system of higher education and cost the state more money by creating an expanded bureaucracy. Terry A. Tollefson, Director of the Board of Community Colleges and Occupa~ tional Education, told the commissioners SB-523 is "potentially the most dangerous bill on higher education" he has seep. The bill provides for separate governing boards for each community college. Tollefson said he opposes the merger provision of the bill. He said HB-1498, which would place Auraria under the state's "sunset provision" is the best way to deill ·with the problems of Auraria. Any proposed change at Auraria, he said, should ·.contain provisions for the Community College a.t Denver (0€0-A) to "obtain its ·rightful share of dassroom. and laboratory space, campus security, and. other support services." . . He recommended the CCHE ask the bill's continued on page 12

·'Spring has arrived and bicycles," Dave Harden growled March 25. 1Iarden, a UCO student, had his second bicycle stolen at the East Oassroom bike racks on March 15 - in broad daylight. Fortunately, _Dave's second bicycle was recovered that same day by Denver Police. But the first vehicle, a Motobecan valued at $19 5 ,· is still missing. According to Auraria Public Safety, reported bicycle thefts have decreased at the Auraria campus during the history of the

campus. -Total bike thefts between 9-76 to 2-77:

IS -Total bike thefts between 9-77 to 2 78: 19 - Total bike thefts between 9-78 to 2 .79: 13 - Total bike thefts between 4 77 .to 7 -77: 25 - Total bike thefts between 4-78 to 7-78: 6 The Denver Police Department Bicycle Bureau suggests registration for all bicycles at a $2 fee.

Thus, if a bicycle is stolen and recovered by Denver Police, the vehicle can be returned to the owner. Another suggestion by the Bicycle Bureau is the .implementation of better lock and chain devices. Kryptonite locks, though penetrative, is the best device. Less effective measures to prevent bicycle thefts - including better lighting around the bike racks - are proposed, but victim Harden feels student awareness is the major solution. "I would like to warn the students," Harden said, "to watch out for their fellow students' stuff."

A new religion called "Born: · Again Neckties" was introduced on television monitors at the Auraria campus. Actually, "Born Again Neckties" was a 1 topic discussed by the World Affairs Conference (WAC) at the University of Colorado. WAC involved socioeconomic reoccurrences in society-such as the changing in ·skirt lengths back to the style popular in the 'SOs. The Auraria Media Center (AMC) · furnished the television monitors and the tapes pertaining to the World ' Affairs Conference. Three monitors were located around the Auraria campus, located at the Metro Administration Lounge, Student Center • mezzanine, and the UCD lobby. "This is more of a demonstration of our capabilities," said Larry Wood, Chief of AMC Engineering, "and it's possible for Auraria students to benefit from this." The WAC tapes, though captivating, have not attracted Auraria audiences. " I was really annoyed by it," said a MSC . student. "I thought it was some sort of politcal thing."

DGH Needs Volunteers Denver General Hospital needs volunteers to help staff the hostpital's patient representative program. Douglass Carter, coordinator of the program, emphasized a special type of volunteer- one who likes to work with other people and has empathy for sick or injured _ patients and their families- is required for patienf representative duties. After orientation training, volunteer patii:_nt represenatives spend three to six hours a week in the hospital interacting with patients, their families and with staff members. Carter said volunteers who speak Spanish or Vietnamese are needed, as well as • those who speak only English. More information is available through the DGHvolunteer office, 893-7481.

Is Justice Possible For MSC? by Emerson Schwartzkopf Once wrong or twice wrong makes no difference-wrong is always wrong. On April 6, Gene Amole, in his Rocky Mountain News column "Amole's Comer," quoted State Senator Hugh Fowler (R-Littleton) concerning a Metropolitan State College(MSC) student receiving an undeserved master's degree. As Metropolitan reporter Frank Mullen later found out, MSC never issued a master's degree-and the Colorado Commission on Higher Education (CCHE) never authorized MSC to grant such a degree. Further, Mullen contacted six sources, named by Fowler hJ.mself, who might verify the existence of such a degree. All six sources knew nothing of the degree. During the following week, Amole- and the News- received letters from Acting MSC President Richard Netzel and several members of the MSC community concerning the April 6 :olumn. The letters pointed out the error of Fowler's story, and took Amole to task for failing to check on the accuracy of the granting of the master's degree. One week after the original column, Amole wrote again on the subject of the undeserved master's degree- this time, specifically addressing the reaction to the April 6 column. Within the April 13 column, Amole Quoted from Netzel's Jetter, cited concern from other MSC persons, a·n d explained his support once again for Senate Bill (SB) 523-Fowler's bill including the merger of MSC and the University of Colorado at Denver (UCD). ' Amole, in the April 13 column, also attempted to disavow responsibility for the Fowler story, saying Fowler-not Amole himself-told the story. Amole contended he could not retract the statement, no matter if the story was true or false. In addition, Amole told Mullen April 9 he (Amole), as a reporter, "didn't feel it

was necessary to check every jot and tittle of everything that goes in (the column)." Someone can easily contend I have less journalistic experience than Gene Amole, or less political experience than Hugh Fowler: I believe what I will now say, however, relies less. on experience than on good, common sense-and devotion to the Canons of Journalism. Once wrong or twice wrong is still wrong- and I believe Gene Amole and Hugh Fowler have committed wrongs against MSC and the citizens of Colorado, and further compounded those wrongs with still more wrongs. Hugh Fowler has, with the undeserved master's degree story, cast a distasteful light upon MSC. If the story of the undeserved master's degree is true, why does the CCHE have no record, while Fowler claims differently? And, is there no record of the committee meeting itself, where the undeserved degree surfaced, somewhere in the state archives? If the undeserved master's degree story is true, why did Fowler wait three to four years to reveal it to the public? Such a witholding from the people of Coloradb- if the story is true-is an extreme disservice by a public servant who is sworn to fully serve and protect all citizens of the state. As for Gene Amole, I refer to Robert Greene, a two-time Pulizter Prize winner and board chairman of Investigative Reporters and Editors, Inc. (IRE). In a speech to college journalists on February 24 this year, he stated the following: "We seem to have a fuzzy idea about what press freedom means and what it does not mean. And we give Pavlovian support to those rash adventurers in our ranks who maintain that the press has no societal responsibilities and illogically lead us into confrontations that we do not need and cannot afford."-• Greene spoke about cases such as Myron Farber of the New York Times-.and hls witholding of notes in a murder trial-but his point of journalistic responsibility is not

lost in the aftermath of both of Amole's columns. The April 6 column is an example of lack of research by a reporter. Granted, Fowler, as chair of the Senate Education Committee, could be looked upon as a knowledgable source-but such an incredible story should be checked out for accuracy. In the April 13 column, however, the aura of audacity becomes extremely intense. No one-except possibly the Canons of Journalism, the code of ethics among journalists-dictates a reporter has to be totally objective. Amole, in the April 13 column, seems however to take an attitude of "selective objectivity." By this, I mean facts are reported, but the way in which the story i;; written possibly casts a subjective light upon the facts. Amole quotes from the Netzel letter, but the quotes are sometimes paraphrased and taken out of their original context. Also, Amole uses Netzel's quotes from the Dean of Admissions and Records to dispute Fowler's story of an undeserved master's degree- yet Arnole still fails to check another source (as Mullen did) to verify or deny Fowler's story. Thus, the only denial of the degree is from the college supposedly granting the undeserved degree- a denial, per se by the accused party. Inferences against MSC are still unchallenged by an unbiased source (such as the CCHE)- thus, "selective objectivity." Amole also stated in the April 13 column he cannot retract Fowler's statement. Fair enQ_ugh-Fowler originally told the story, not Amole. However, to leave the situation at that stage-and printing a denial by an MSC official-fails to answer the crucial point: was there an undeserved master's degree granted by MSC? The duty of a reporter-as taught io me time and time again-is not simply to

-Letters Dear Mr. Amole: The third in your series of editorials dis· crediting the Auraria institutions was the most inaccurate and the most damaging. I recognize tllat you have quoted Senator Fowler and may deny reaponsibility for the aocmacy of the report. However, to rely solely on Senator Fowler's statement in publishing such damaging accusations, is in my view irresponsible. I talked with Senator Fowler on April 6, 1979 to verify bis statement and to learn of any details that might permit a verification of the charge. When pressed on such details Senator Fowler could remember surprisingly little. He said that he recalled that the incident occured 3 or 4 years ago and that he could not recall who it was, when it was, the discipline in which the degree allegedly was awarded, or any other details of the incident. When asked why he did not immediately report the incident to Metropolitan State College in order that the facts or the credibility of the witness might be checked, Senator Fowler said he had talked with President Jame~ Palmer. However, President Palmer can recall no such allegations nor any conversations on the ;natter with Senator Fowler. Senator Fowler admitted on Friday that the Committee may have been duped by an unreliable wit-

report, but to ferret out the truth to insure protection of the public. Fowler may· have told the story, but Amole made it available to the 100,000-plus readers of the Rocky Mountain News. Those readers ~doubtably include the members of the state legislature, Governor Richard Lamm, and other influential citizens of Colorado. To take the stance a reporter only reports-and not checking other unbiased sources and further investigating a serious allegation against a major institution of the state-is journalistic travesty. Such an attitude, for example, would have left the stories of My Lai and Watergate untold. To the readers of "Amole's Corner," the authenticity of an undeserved master's degree from MSC is probably still unclear. Many readers will still wonder who is right- Fowler or MSC. Amole still has to address this issue. Anyone can wander into the office of The Metropolitan and tell me all sorts of information. I can even have it preserved via my tape recorder. However, I check each allegation before it appears within the pages of this newspaper. . _ An investigation of all charges is essential to protect all parties concerned- the accuser, the accused, and the public at large. Not only have l been taught this throughout my journalistic studies at MSC . . . to me, such a policy is good, common sense.

ness. Nevertheless, that did not deter him from stating as "absolutely true" the unbelievable tale reported so faithfully by you. Metropolitan State College is not authorized to award master's degrees and never has been. We ·'10()perate with the Uni· versity of" Northern Colorado and c.otorado State University in delivering two of their degree programs on o~r campus, but those oooperative arrangements were not begun wuil Jast summer, well after the testimony was supposed to have been provided the Senate Education Committee. I have discus· sed the matter with the Dean of Admissions and Records and he can oonceive of no possible way that an official diploma of any kind, particularly a master's degree diploma, could have been awarded anyone under the circumstances described in your editor· ial. It would have taken you a few minutes at most to verify the facts related to the situation and minimally to give the institution a chance to defend itself. Instead, you have written an article which impugns the integrity of a large number of qualified professionals and does great harm to Metropolitan State College and .to higher education in Colorado. We would be happy to invite you or anyone else interested in an honest and thorough assessment of our record keeping and graduation to visit the institu-

I iri.vite you please to do more extensive ~ch before you write again about higher education, about Auraria, or about Metropolitan State College. And before you allow Senator Fowler to use your column to express his personal opinions, you should study his proposed le~tion for yourself and talk with others with differing views. You could do a great service by presenting a balanced anafysis rather than playing Charlie McCarthy as you did last week:. John Marvel, President of the State ColJege Consortium, and I would both be happy to discuss Senate Bill 523 with you · at any time that it is convenient. The issues before the State of Colorado are very serious and far.reaching and go well beyond the protection of turf by the colleges and universities and go well beyond the development of a simpler governance structure for the State. The implieations in this bill for the control of higher education should be of major concern to every citizen of Colorado. I will be happy to discuss the matter further.

' An unidentified MSC student receives her degree. It is rumored that MSC nearly expelled this student twice for attending classes and rciising her GPA above a 0.5, but that through an intensive counseling program, she became addicted to drugs and is graduating this year as an honor student on the 'Senators Roll,' with a -4.0 cum. Originally, this was a Masters, however, the student decided that a BS was more appropriate.

Here, the ASMSC staff demonstrates that the accusation that "many of the people floating around Auraria are just derelicts who don't have any where else to hang out," just simply is not true as they begin a conference with UCD representatives.

THE ASMSC CURRICULUM COMMITfEE The ASMSC Constitution describes the duties, term of office, etc. of members of the Curriculum Committee. What, however, are Curriculum Committee members' duties on a "'day-to-day basis? ASMSC Curriculum Committee members serve on the College Curriculum Committee (CCC) which also includes representatives of the Faculty Senate. The CCC approves new courses, new majors and minors, changes in requirements for majors, minors and general .studies, with all decisions sent to the Colorado Commission on Higher Education (CCHE) for -review and final approval. Curriculum Committee members are also asked to serve on a subcommittee of the CCC, such as the Audit Subcommittee, which seeks to· eliminate duplication of ~ courses.

The CCC meets at variable intervals- depending on the workload to be considere.d- anywhere from twice weekly to every other month. Members receive the materials to be considered in their student government mailbox in STC 340 a week or .more before the CCC meeting. Each member goes over the material individually, after which the ASMSC Curriculum Committee meets as a whole in order to caucus- or share information and plan strategy. . Whether or not CCC materials are available for discussion, the ASMSC CC i;neets every 2-3 weeks for other business. °7he committee delves into various projects and problems such as book prices, teacher ev~luations, etc. These projects may involve a group effort, but one committee member will be responsible for ".:Oordination.

Although CC members are not required to confer with-or report back to- faculty memb~s in their area, a cooperative relationship is mutually beneficial. If a department is proposing curriculum changes, the ASMSC CC member should meet with the faculty and discuss the proposed changes. As a result, members have a better understanding to share with both ASMSC, and CCC. Gathering student input may be approac_hed informally , through conversation, or formally through questionnaires, course evaluation, etc. Different departments, different committee members may call fof'"Varying approaches to soliciting student opinion. However it is handled, student opinion should not be ignored. As a member of student government, the curriculum committee member has a primary responsibility to represent the needs and opinions of Metropolitan State Coilege students. Each year, the ASMSC will prepare a report.- completed during spring semester- identifying specific problems related to the curriculum in each department (i .c., lax course requirements for a degree, or irrelevance of degree requirements to employment in the field) . Committee members will be responsible for the departments they represent . and are encouraged to seek help from other students within those departments.

The President of MSC has been given the responsibility by the Board of Trustees of seeing student fees being spent wisely. As a practical matter, past presidents have delegated this duty to the Student Affairs Board (SAB)-the duty but not the responsibility, or final authority. Each year, it is the SAB that examines all of the proposed budgets listed above, makes changes or reductions so that their total will be equal to the amount of student fees available. 111is total student fee budget is presented to the President in the form of a recommendation. The· President can either accept it or makes changes as deemed appropriate. With a few minor exceptions, over the last few years the Presi.dent has accepted the recommendations of the SAB without making any changes. Th.ere are , 12 members on the Student Affairs. Board: six students and five faculty. The Dean of Student Services is the non-voting chairperson. The faculty members are appointed by t}le Faculty Senate. The student members are elected for one-year terms. Three students are elected in the fail elections; three in the spring elections. Three students are elected in the fall elections, three in the spring e1ections. Being elected to the SAB also makes the students members of two additional committees: the Student Affairs

Committee, and the Joint Committee. The Student Affairs Committee consists of just the six students on the SAB. As the financial watchdog of student government, it approves the budget that student government submits to the SAB. It also approves any changes made to the budget during the rest of the year. In the future the SAC will possibly also have the responsibility of allocating the Cultural Awareness and Club Travel funds. The SAC members are also members of the Joint Committee . of student government. Together with the twelve members of the Student Curriculum Committee (also members of the Joint Committee) they form the legislative branch of student government. The SAB and SAC, individually and collectively, have responsibility for almost half-a-million dollars in student fees. That's a lot of money, and a lot of responSib1lity. Fulfilling this responsibility requires sacrifice and dedication from the student. Tune that used to be spend for studying, or for leisure, wiH be consumed preparing for, and attending, meetings. The reward for this dedication isn't measurable. It's just the satisfaction of knowing that you've ·c ontributed your time and energy for the benefit of all of the students at MSC.

feature Harry Reem.s:. From Mem·phis W-ith ...~ by Emerson Schwartzkopf "How many of you here have seen Deep Throat?" A few in the audience at the Auraria Student Center last Friday sheepishly raised theit hands. "Come on," says Harry Reems- possibly the most controversial cinema actor of the l 970's - "let's get 'em up!" . Gradually, most of the 70 persons gathered to hear Reem's lecture-"From Deep Throat to Memphis: Can Morality Be Legislated?"-admit seeing th7 famous pornographic film. "Okay," Reems says. "Now, how many of you have ever asked someone else to go to see Deep Throat?" About ten hands confess in response to the second question. "Those answering 'yes' to the second question," Reems continues, "could possibly find themselves in (federal) court as co-conspirators to trafficking interstate obscene materials." The thought of being prosecuted for asking someone to a movie might seem absurd to most persons-but not to Harry Ree ms . For Harrf Reems-for one day's work, at a fee of $100, in Deep Throat - was convicted by the federal government in 1976 as part of a "national conspiracy" to traffic in interstate materials. "ln July 1974, on a summer night, four FBI agents appeared at my apartment in New York with a warrant for my arrest," Reems says. "It was an indictment from Memphis, Tennessee.

"I waived extradition under advice from my attorney," Reems says, "my theatrical attorney, which was the only one I had at the time. I was then transported to Memphis. "I was charged with being a member of a national conspiracy to transport interstate obscene materials. I was charged with 11 other people-whom I'd never met in my life-who were involved in the distribution of the film. · • "There was some prior restraint there, too," Reems says, because the gC?vernment declared the film obscene before the trial." The trial, lasting nine and one-half weeks in 1976, ended - with Reems found guilty-and being sentenced to five years in federal prison. Reems, however, was found guilty of an act committed before the actual filming of Deep Throat in Miami in 1972. "I was not named for acting in the film," Reems said, "or committing a sexual act. I was named for traveling frnm New York to Miami, which was in connection with the making of the film. " "That's the overt act in the conspiracy." Reems said eight weeks of the trial dealt with the prosecutionL and seven weeks defining the obscenity law. "The new obscenity law is in three basic parts," Reems says. "Something obscene must be I) patently offensive; 2) have lewd exhibition of the genitals, actual or simulated; and 3) appeal to the prurient interests (of a person) according to local community standards."

Here, MSC andUCDare merged delicately under a carefully planned and thoroughly researched program by SB 523. Note how the quality of neither entity is sacrificed and how each retains its identity. It is rumored that other institutions will be affected similarily and that most institutions of higher education in Colorado will be .. modifi~d along this same track under SB 523. ·• ~

Harry Reems: "they exploit sex. " Reems explains a film such as 1'he China Syndrome could be patently offensive to an anti-nuclear person; films such as Last Tango in Paris A Clockwork Orange, or even Zefferelli's Romeo and Juliet have been defined as having lewd exhibitions of genitalia; and a film, under the third part of the law, must have no political, literary, scientific, or artistic value. " In 1972, after Deep Throat was made," Reems says, "at least 10 million words were written or communicated about the film. It began the sexual revolution in America. Who could say the film has no social or political value?" Reems says former federal prosecutor Larry Parrish- "a good person bent on legislating personal morality"- attempted to show all of the United States, collectively, is "a local community." Parrish, Reems says, called a number of witnesses to " define an average American. We finally got a definition of an average American as being 29 and one half years old, having two and one-half children, married, having a steady job, has never seen a pornographic movie, and has some religious affiliation." The prosecution, Reems says, also brought in witnesses who testified ·'that the act of feUatio was pathological ... and sex outside the bonds of matrimony was legally and medically perverse." Deep Throat 's female lead Linda Lovelace, along with the film) producer, also testified for the prosecution, although Reems..says th~. ~w.o :.'couldn?l say an)rthing ' ' • .. not already on film.' 1 · The two were indict~d as part of lQl "co-eonspirators." Oth'\n' co1 copw~~s, Reerns says, 'included a Miami hotel, the New York Times Judith C1jst, American Airlines and the Greyiiound Bias Company. The selection of Memphis- ''the last city to have a movie censor board," says Reems-was a prime example 6f "forum shopping." · The interstate transportation of 'Deep Throat, Reems says, was on an airliner from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida to Kansas City, Missouri . . . non-stup. The plane, however, flew over Memphis. Reem's conviction was finally overturned when another case involving Deep Throat stumbled onto the fact later in 1976 that the film was made before the new obscenity law went into effect. Since the Constitution prohibits conviction ex post facto-via a law passed

after an act-Solicitor General Robert Bork "confessed error" and dismissed Reem"s conviction. Parrish, Reems says, was dismissed seven . days after President Jimmy Carter took office. Reerris' speech at Auraria reached a temporary boiling point when a woman claimed pornographic films "exploit women." "They don't exploit women, dear," Reems retorted , "they exploit sex.'' Reems and the women exchanged verbal ' bullets for over five minutes, with Reems at one point vehemently denying the existence of a "snuff' film. "The girl toqay, who· had her points about women's lib , was not very articulate in doing anything except to point out~ her anger," Reems said later in a post-speech interview. Sometimes, .however, something more drastic than words are used against Reems. "Once," Reems recalls, "at the University of Houston in Texas, an elderly gentleman stood up- reeking of alcohol- pulJed out a gun and said 'tl.lis is '- . . not what I'm sending my grandchildren to school for.' " The man was immediately restrained, but Reems felt "shaken ... absolutely mortified.'' Reems noted further discontent with him in the South may have cost him a: part · in the hit movie Grease. "I was up for Grep.se, Reems says, "and J was given a part- not the lead, but to play the coach, the part Sid Caesar played. "We went through casting sessions. and were all set- then Paramount (the film company) bounced me . . They probably thought they would lose pl\lydates in the South and Midwest:' Reems, however, will appear in The Gean-Up Squad where he pliiys . .. an overzealous prosecutor of pornography. Reems says filming of Squad-in Montreal- pegins this summer, with a release date of late this year, or early 1980. In addition to working With motion pictures, Reems says he had one major offer to do a still shooting- \lnd turned it down. "I was approached by Playgirl to do their first centerfold," Reems remembers, "and turned it down. The magazine was brand new, and I just didn't want to do it again. I didn't know what to expect" continued on next page

Purloining At The Pumps: Win·dfall Prof its by Frank Mullen Most people grit their teeth and moan at _the prospect of another "gas shortage" like the one in 1973. But Felix McNulty can't wait for the predicted dollar-a-gallon prices and long lines at service stations. · Felix, which is not his real name, is not an Arab oil shiek or the chairman of the board at Exxon. He is a professionally unemployed carpenter's helper with fond and profitable ' memories of the last oil crisis, In 1973 Felix took a cue from the major oil companies and ~llected his own piece Of the action. To put It bluntly, Felix is a thief. "Write down that I had style," Felix told me as he sat in the Red Moon Pizzeria on Colfax. Felix did . li:t the .winter of 1973, the bulk of the gas • stat10ns m New York City were forced to close when their oil allocation was sold. Stations remaining open soon had 24-hour lines and $5 limits on purchases. People drove along frantically, eyeing their gas guages like timebombs, until they saw a line of cars. They got into the line and hoped the .... station would not close down before they reached the pumps. Most of the time the gas station was not even in sight, and people would enter the lines with a kind of blind hope--akin to the quest for the Holy Grail or the Children's Crusade. Felix, who did not own a car, got two friends , some gas station coveralls, and a few hundred blank credit card receipts-and went into business. "We'd drive till we spotted a line and two of us would get out at the gas station and st~rt walking away along the line of cars," he s:ud. About halfway up the line Felix and his i friend stopped, telling the customers the station was running low on gas. If they wanted to guarantee their p_urchases, he would explain they would have to make their purchase in advance and receive the gas in exchange for the receipt when they got to the pumps. Felix and his friend moved along the line collecting money until they heard three short blasts of their accomplice's car horn. 1he horn meant the first car bearing a receipt was dangeroUily close to the gas station, or someone had left a car and was walking towards the station. Either way, Felix and his friends would leave hurriedly and be well oo their way to the next station before their scam was revealed-usally with much yelling and screaming, by the first patron to reach the pumps with a worthless scrap of paper. Most people paid up gladly, Felix said, feeling they received a guarantee ofga10line. It was as easy as "clipping sheep," he said. ,.. It was even more fun when cUitomers gave . Felix trouble. When someone refused to pay for gas they had not yet received, Felix would raise his 1earecrow-hippie body to its full 6'5" and •are wildly into the person'seyes. .. You sonamabich!" he would shout. "There you are sitting in your nice warm car and you got to give some trouble to some kid freezing his tail off makin' minimum wage. I don't have to put up with this crap!" Felix would stand there with his outstretched hand pointing towards the highway like the Ghost-of-Christmas-Yet-to-Come and scream at the customer: ' "Get out of line, you sonomabich! You don't get no gas today. I hope you run out of gas on the highway and a Mack truck makes an accordian out of you!" The customer usually begged to remain in line, pay for his receipt and slip Felix a few extra bucks to soothe his battered feelings . "J like the guys in the Caddys (Cadillacs) the best," he said. ''They'd always get me to

sell them extra receipts and then give me a nice tip on top of it ." Felix would not say how many stations were involved in the scam, but, soon the enterprise received some publicity from the New York Daily News. Felix has the lead paragraph of the story memorized: "!wo glib hustlers with a penchant for turnmg an adverse situation to their own advantage bilked customers of three Staten Island gas stations out of an estimated $800 over the weekend." "How about that," he said. "You are ·going to call me a glib hustler too?" No, he was told. ."W~D at least tell them I got style," Felix · said. Lots of guys tried it after the Newf story came out but I was the original and I did it with class." Felix left Denver last week. When I last saw him he was standing on Interstate 70 with his thumb pointed in the general direc;tion of California. "Don't own a car," he said. "Who the hell can afford the gas?"

· Harry Reems: From Memphis

With ... continued from last page Would, however, Harry Reems do Deep 11uoat again? "I don't want to be a martyr," he says. i.The only way I _would consider doing another film in that genre is if it. drastically changed the tone of sex in films ... if it was used validly in expressing the theme of a movie, which was not sexual to begin with. "I'd like to work in films where l can get. a chance to deliver a message to the people ... dealing with sex as being a very lit:ahhy, very itappy part ot lite."

Comic Rel-ief At 'Boettcher by Steve Werges Professor Peter Schickele of the University of Southern North Dakota at Hoople graced the Boettcher Concert Hall with his presence Saturday night. Professor Schickele, famous for his discovery of the music of P.D.Q. Bach (1807-1742), introduced himself from the second level of the hall reaching the stage via a series of leaps and drops, finally reaching the stage. Schickele's enttance, bizarre as it was, set the mood for the entire concert to come. For those unfamiliar with the music of P.D.Q. Bach, it is a collage of commerical, comical and serious classical music. The resulting pieces are at times mildly annoying, but the majority of P.D.Q.'s works can be described as side-splitting. Professor P. (as he calls himself) discovered P.D.Q. Bach after recording J.S. Bach's Coffee Cantata. Schickele and his brother played all the instruments using overdubbing techniques.

At Room 330 of the

Student Center

According to the story, the day following the recording Schickele "discovered" the Sanka Cantata, composed by the last and least known son of Johann, P.D.Q. Bach. The performance start~d with P.D.Q. Bach's answer to Haydn's Farewell Symphony. Historically, Haydn's Farewell Symphony was structured to begin with a full orchestra and to end with two violinists. P.D.Q. Bach felt Haydn had a good idea but felt that the idea should be reversed, thus composing the Howdy Symphony in D Major. Schickele started the Howdy Symphony as it has been traditionally started with no one but the conductor on stage. Schickele can be characterized as an absurdly intense conductor whose antics in the beginning of the Howdy Symphony totally .flattened this writer. The orchestra slowly ti.led in and proce~ded to perform the movements of the Howdy Symphony. Andante con menuetto allegretto are examples of the movements of Howdy Symphony. The performance moved on to the Royal Firewate.r Musick. The movements of Royal Firewater Musick consisted of: Long; Neat; Long; March on the Rocks, Sarabande straight-up, and one for the road. All of Royal ·Firewater Musick is notably crazed; however, Sarabande straight-up deserves • some notoriety. Sarabande straight-up is performed with the use of instruments. unique to the realm

Peter Schikele: Sanka Ointata of orchestration. Sections of the orchestrat were sheared of their normal horns, and woodwinds were given booze bottles filled with substances of a questionable nature. The use of a "bass" drum was incorporated into the Sarabande straight-up movement also. The exuberant performance of the "bass' drummer merits

mention as well- although the Humane Society may -object to the torture of a (sea!) bass being slammed into the skin of a bass drum. After the intermission and the antics of the stage crew, four members of the DSO returned to the stage to perform the Fuga Meshuga, an orchestrated round played forward, inverted, in retrograde and • inverted retrograde. About this time I was wondering how Schickele could possibly bring all of the splinters of genius the performance had exposed to my senses. Schickele's incredible timing satisfied my rising doubts quickly during the performance of the Fantasiehtick for Piano and Orchestra. Schickele, conducting from the piano, was joined by a cellist and bass violinist perched on bar stools, breaking peanuts and making small talk during the performance. Schickele's and DSO's performance of P.D.Q. Bach's music was thoroughly enjoyable. For those of you who did not attend or have never attended a performance at Boettcher Hall, I .urge you to do so next time Peter Schicke'le performs.

.. despite losing

Though they lost the dual meet at Colorado College this past weekend, Metropolitan State College (MSC)'s five-man track team took six medals in five separate categories. . Ed Anderson won both the 20-yd. high hurdles and the 440-yd. intermediate hurdles. P'ole vaulters Hal Fairbanks and Scott Williamson tied for third place as they both cleared 13'0. Sprinter Brian Rathbone placed fourth in the 440-yd. dash while Joe Lanier took second in the 880-yd. run. The same five-man squad placed last out of four teams March 31 when they hosted-the MSC Invitational at the Auraria Field. Not the absence of quality, but a lack of quantity hurts the team this year. Under Coach Bob Grace, the club does well in

specific events but is unable to place even one competitor in every event (while most schools are represented by 3 or 4). For MSC has only three example, sprinters-thus ~sing by one a four-man team necessary for the mile relay. Neither Grace nor the team have become discouraged. Grace's coaching philosophy stresses individual character development rather than the "must win" beliefs advocated by many of the big time coaches. The team, always looking for new recruits, welcomes new participants at practices at 3 p.m. daily on the Auraria field. The team travels to Golden for a meet with the School of Mines this Saturday at 1 p.m.

.postponement in the legislature this year, and referred to the Legislative Interim Committee on Higher Education and the CCHE for study between now and 1980. John Marvel, president of the Consortium, and Trustee Gladys Foster told the commissioners the bill would create more problems than it would solve. They said the present system is adequate for solving the problems which exist in higher education and at Auraria: They told the commissioners consolidation work is proceeding and pleaded against a " rush to judgment" on the Auraria question. Marvel, whose board would be dissolved under the proposed legislation, said SB-523 should serve as a vehicle for "continuing discussion" of existing problems. " We do not need more division of effort of a new pecking order," Marvel said. "You should seek additional testimony from those who would be impacted. There should be no premature endorsement of a bill so comprehensive in nature." John Mellon, president of Western .State College-which is now governed by the truste~s-spoke against the bill's provisions establishing a "University of Western Colorado (UWC)." UWC would be the result of the de facto merger of Adams State College, Fort Lewis College, Mesa College and Western State College.

there is "no sound, rational, practical or ~ educational reason for such a change (UWC) that I can think of. "It is unthinkable to me that a proposal of this magnitude should be seriously con. sidered without close consultation with the persons most directly affected," Mellon said. "To my knowledge nobody-not trus- ~ tees, not faculty, not administrators, not students-at any of the campuses has had a chance to discuss the proposed changes." He urged the CCHE to "debate every issue" in SB-523 and come to a conclusion based on the "reason and the public good." The commissioners voted 6-1 to "not support" SB-523's provision to establish UWC and voted 4-3 to "take no position" on the future governance of the four institutions which Fowler proposed combine to form UWC. They voted 5-2 against the provision in SB-523 to remove the University of Color- .• ado at Colorado" Springs from the Regents' control and place it under a new governing board_ The commissioners voted 6-0 to support SB-523's provision giving the CCHE more power in the budgetary process for higher education. At first, the commissioners voted to accept a CCI-IE staff recommendation stating both HB-1498-the Auraria "sunset provision" -and SB-523, with its provision· to merge MSC and UCD-were "appropriate" solutions to the Auraria question. -
