Campus enrollments stable !

by Frank Mullen

The experts predicted a substan~ ti al enrollment decline for state higher education institutions but preliminary enrollment figures available at Auraria showed enrollments remaining stable and one institution reported an in· crease. Unofficial estimates show the University of Colorado at Denver about even with last year's figures. Enrollments at the Community College of Denver at Auraria have increased. And officials at Metropolitan State College said "it is just too early to tell" since there are "a whole lot of ifs" involved. Officials of the three institutions were polled August 31,. the last day of pre-registration.for the fall semester. George Burnam, director of admissions and records· at UCD, said the university has not "suf- · f ered any disasters or enjoyed any marvelous increases.'' "We really don't know that much right now," he said. "But last year at this time we had 4671 full time equi,valent (FTE) students enrolled with a total head count of 8516 students. We are in that same -baY park righJ now.~' , • •

George Gallegos, registrar of CCD-A, said the college had around 1000 students enrolled on the second .day of registration last year as compared with 1200 this fall-giving CCD-A an overal increase of 17 percent. "We are real optimistic about enrollment for this term" he said. "We've done a lot of marketing this year and we feel our direct mail and advertising has helped quite a bit. We now accept Master Charge _a nd _Yisa and we think

that's helped." MSC. conducted an advertising campaign ~nd will now accept charge cards as well, but Dean of Admissions Ken Curtis said the college has ''no meaningful enrollment figures available'' as yeL

"We were open 10 days (for registration) last year as compared to 7 days this year so the figures we have are ·not really comparable," he said. "We were really_ swamped today, and that

didn't happen last year. We will still be registering during the first week of classes.'' Curtis said the college now requires students to pay in full at registration, but it is "impossible to pin down" the effect the new policy may have on enrollments. ''Applications have increased over last year," he said. "But we will just have to wait and see if that means anything."

Hews AHEC bookstore:,no-windfall profir---- -111 \J Q lj I _J by Ka~n Breslin

Lines of restless students loaded down with bulky textbooks stretch across the Auraria Book Center. Juggling their texts, ch ec kbooks and pens, the students face an anticipated, but demoralizing shock-the book bill. The price of textbooks is a common student complaint, according to John Turk, Auraria Book Centger manager. Students suspect the bookstore of windfall profits the way motorists suspect "Big Oil." If anyone is gaining a "windfall," Turk says, it is not the college bookstore. The 20 percent mark-up the Auraria Book Center and other college stores collect on the sale of a new textbook contrasts sharply with a minimum_40 percent - on 16th mark-µp a private retail outlet Stret needs to cover expenses and tum a profit. As Philip Emery, a -McGraw-Hill representative says, •'the college

As Turk sees it, the new textbook prices aren ' t that out of line with the rices of other goods and services, P though text book prices have risen slightly higher than the consumer price index. Ron Kinney of Ally and Bacon publishers says his company raised prices 7 percent last year, compared to a 13 percent inflaton rate. The student complaints, Turk believes, stem from a reversal in the consumer/ producer relationship when students buy textbooks. In a normal consumer setting the consumer makes the final judgement on the worth of a given Product in comp·arison to its price. One is permitted to choose. With a textbook, the choice is already made-with the student's money. "We'd like our customers to put it in perspective," Turk_says. "By the time most students enter the Auraria Book Center for books, he says, , their patience has been worn thin by the

Instead, Turk says., the college bookstore makes money on supply items: pens, T-shirts, calculators, notebooks and similar items. The bookstore also comes out ahead on used textbooks. Turk says he will b~ back any textbook still in demand for 50 percent of the new price. The profit comes when it is resold for 75 percent of the new cost.

se. Turk believes it is these factors which make the bo·o k prices seem so outrageous. The nature of the textbook market keeps prices high. The graphic art, plates and color combinations require additonal time and expense. As Emery puts it, "During every step of the production you need extremely talented help." continued on page 19

Cainpus scofflaws ottered discount by Joan q,nrow ·

The Auraria Parking Office is starting off the fall semester with rate increases, a stricter towing policy, a publicrelations campaign, and a half-price sale on all outstanding tickets more than 10 days old. Ben Walton, campus parking director, told the Auraria Board Aug. 20 parking revenues must average "49 thousand a month for the next 11

months to equal our $587 ,000 budget for 1980." The parking fund, Walton said, is now suffering a "negative variance" of $82,000 for 1979. Walton has been implementing the changes incorporated in last year's parking proposals. Rates have been increased in some lots and attendants have been assigned to the more popular lots in an effort to maximize daily collections. Walton is launching an aggressive public relations campaign that ''will hopefully appeal to people's sense of responsibility." His campaign will include posters, ads and meetings with student organizations. His theme is "pay to park and pay tickets promptly." In the hope that people will come forward and pay old tickets to clear their records, the director is offering a 50 percent reduction of fines from August 27 to September 25 on tickets over 10 days o_ld. The rates in many of the lots have been increased, but 25 cent discounts are offered to car-poolers. In order to facilitate the collection of revenues, Walton said, the Parking Office will now accept Visa and Master Charge cards in payment for tickets and parking permits. For an extra 50 cents, he said, students may renew their parking permits by mail. Since August 1, persons whose cars have accumulated 3 or more unpaid tickets are placed on a tow list. "I don't want to continue towing and ticketing," Walton said. "It's a

waste of time and money. But, we've got about 70,000 unpaid tickets on ·file and I have to encourage peopie to pay to park and pay tickets promptly so we don't have this deficit in our budget.'' Currently, state law requires all expenses associated with the operation and maintenance of Auraria lots, as well as the repayment of $3.5 million in bonds issued for their construction, come from parking revenues. "It's a shame that parking isn't free, but that's just the way it is," he said. · "Parking rates are dirt cheap, and there are plenty of people who drive to school that can afford to pay them. If more people paid, we could meet our budget obligations to the extent we would have a surplus, which would enable us to improve service with better maintenance and more staff." Although Walton does not want to use strong arm tactics, he has some tough action planned for those who will not be reached through their conscience. Beginning October 15, all students identified as being the registered owners of vehicles, wirh three or more tickets over ten days old on file, will be placed on an institution sanction list. Certain records and transcripts will then be withheld until the indebtedness is cleared. In the case of staff and faculty, an adverse letter will be placed in the personnel file. In extreme cases, he said, there will be an automatic deduction made after due notice has been given. Students, faculty and staff who have

outstanding tickets accumulated before the sanctions go into effect will still be in a danger of the towhook, Walton said, but the institutional sanctions plan is a substitute for towing students and staff members who do not pay tickets received. after Oct. 15. Walton is "trying like hell" to contact everyone with three or more tickets on file, but said it is a big job and must done manually. He hopes to have the system computerized by the end of the .) year so that anyone with one ticket over ten days old will be identified. In the meantime, Walton is sending out a frien- . dly reminder asking the violator to please pay up. If that elicits no response, a second, less polite notice is sent. Walton said he is trying to contact everyone, but many students move and leave no for- 1 warding address. In a further attempt to discourage scofflaws, attendants will be stationed in lots P, Q, G, H. (Note: Bicyclists will be allowed to park by the huts. There will be no rack or guarantees of safety made, but Walton hopes this will prevent thefts.) He hopes to install automatic gates on lots K and L. This will result in an increase in permit costs, which will be announced 30 days before going into effect, probably before the end of the year. "I'm willing to meet with anybody, anytime to discuss parking procedures and listen to suggestions," states Walton. "I want to be accessible and will personally respond to any letters and comments.''

Editorial Chicano-Viet rift

No villains, only victims at Lincoln Park by Sal Ruibal ·~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~--'

If there is a lesson to be learned from this summer's sordid Chicano-Vietnamese conflict, it is this: Liberal guilt is a sword that cuts both ways. Liberal guilt fueled the social changes that rocked the Sixties, but as the Seventies came around, self-

actualization replaced breast-beating as the national pastime. People are "getting into themselves" and no longer have the time or funds to support their former political hobbies. Besides, it's a lot more fun to grope in a hot tub than to picket a Safeway store. Young people who once lived on Mom and Dad's income suddenly became aware of the staggering costs

of "social equality" when the taxman took huge hunks of their take-home pay. Civil rights are one thing, dinner at Wellington's is quite another. One must have priorities. The Battle of Lincoln Park, however, brought forth torrents of lzod Alligator tears from dormant liberals. Those nasty Chicanos had the audacity to object to the influx of Vietnamese refugees into their housing projects. (For those of you not versed in such matters, a housing project is not to be confused with a cluster of condominiums.) Crying in their Perrier, they spoke of undying devotion to human rights, selfish minorities and omlettes at Sorens. Talk is cheap, but social support is not. Just as in the Viet Nam War, the poor and non-white have been asked to shoulder the burden for America. In Viet Nam, they shared the lives of their sons for the Vietnamese. Today they are asked to share meager support funds and housing. The federal government showed the world what a big heart it has when it allowed the Vietnamese to enter the country. It showed state and municipal governments how small its wallet was when it refused to grant extra funds to absorb the refugees into local programs. It would be infinitely more constructive for all the tongue-cluckers out there to stop blaming the Chicanos and start demanding more federal aid to deal with theproblem. The Feds created the problem, they should be the ones to fund the solution. l fear the damage may be irrepairable. The incidents of this summer will only cause the Chicano community to withdraw deeper into itself. The Vietnamese are not saints. The Chicanos are not devils. They are human beings caught in a web of circumstances beyond their control. It's time to pay the piper.

Metropolitan welcomes input The staff of THE METROPOLITAN welcomes the new and continuing students of the Auraria Higher Education Center. · THE METROPOLITAN will continue weekly on Wednesdays throughout the fall semester. Our primary goals are to provide the students, faculty, and staff of AHEC with news, information, and feature stories about the campus and Denvel\, and to serve as a learning laboratory for any student who wants to learn about the newspaper business. We welcome press releases and information concerning campus groups, although publication is dependent upon space limitations. When the staff is faced with a large volume of information and a small volume of space, priority will be given to the organizations connected with Metropolitan State College, since the paper is subsidized in part by MSC student fees. THE METROPOLITAN will continue to publish news, features and information of the Community College of Denver and the University of Colorado at Denver, even though these institutions do not share MSC's financial

commitments. If the other institutions decide to share the costs of this tri-campus publication, they will not be "buying a newspaper ": They will be paying for services which have been provided continuously since THE METROPOLITAN began, and insuring the paper will have the materials and'manpower to continue its service. The paper wants to know the opinions and criticisms of its readers and will gladly provide a forum to those who want to address campus issues. We welcome your letters, comments and visits to our office in room 156 of the Student Center. All decisions concerning editorial copy are made by the editor and his staff. The editor is directly responsible for the contents of each issue. THE METROPOLITAN will continue to provide the campus with a professional quality product. Welcome to the campus. If there is any way THE METROPOLITAN can help you or your group, come and talk to us . .We are your newspaper; we are your voice.

Letters Editor of THE METRO POLITAN, I think Sal Ruibal should blush. What you ascribed to H.L. Mencken in your editorial "Caligula Would Blush" was a hoax written by Calvin Trillin in the Nation. James J. Kipatrick exposed the hoax in his column this past Jan. 2. Kilpatrick points out "Mr. Trillen's clairvoyant piece ... is likely to hang around forever. These things have half-lives longer than uranium. Every month or so some drooling anti-Semitic sucker sends me the 'Protocols of the Elders of Zion.' Some other numbskull implores me to believe in the bogus Dusseldorf Rules on the confiscation of firearms. So it goes.

Kathy Mulkins (MSC-Behavioral Sci. {German) "I would recommend Metro. It's a friendly place. I enjoy it. I went to CCD, but I think MSC is a lot better. I think the professors have the time for you and really care about education. The classes _ are smalJ and the profs have been great."

"I sure would recommend CCD. I really enjoyed it here. I'm graduating this afternoon and I'll be at Metro in the fall to work on my BA degree. I'm going to try and take some more classes at CCD as well. CCD is really flexible. I carried overloads and finished my program in a year. It has been a realJy enjoyable experience."

Marilyn Schmidt (MSC-Art Dept.)

TaePisba (UCD•Business) "Yeah, I would recommend the university ... I live in Denver and it's a reall convenience to come here. Boulder is very big, but down here it's more friendly. I think it is a much closer type of school. Down here if I have a problem there are a lot of people who can take the time to help me. ''The faculty is very good and it seems to me the students and faculty can really communicate with each other better. It is a friendly place and (operates) more on a personal level. I've been here three years and I know most of my professors on a first-name basis. The business school has very high standards. There are no pass-fail grades. I'd say overall standards here are pretty high."

DianeKosko (CCD-Radiological Technology) "I would recommend CCD, but it would depend upon what the person wanted. It is a good school to start out in and then transfer to a four-year college. You can get experience here. For instance, I work at CU Medical Center and I can get college credit for my work there. I think I've gained some really good training here and at the center.'' Martin Howard (CCD-General Studies)

"Yes, I would recommend CCD. It is a pretty good school for the money. It has been meeting my expectations as a student. The whole campus is good for that matter. "In January I will be going to classes at both UCD and Metro. I think it might be good if the schools merged and they made this all one big school. It would be a pretty good school at that. Another good idea would be to have some oncampus housing down here, although I don't know where they could put dorms ...J' •

"Sure, I would recommend Metro. I like the school because of its urban environment. You meet a lot of different, interesting people. I have some old credits that wouldn't have been accepted anywhere el.$e and MSC was willing to transfer some of them. The professors are satisfactory. There is a great dedication in some areas and not in . others. This is the third school I've gone to and I think the dedication of some of the teachers is very high. "Take this show (at the Emmanuel Gallery on campus), for instance. We wouldn't have had this show at all if it were not for the perseverence of the professor (Craig Smith). This show is a first. He (Smith) has given us an opportunity that most of the students haven't had. The show has been a great experience." Mike Leite (MSC-Philosophy)

"I would recommend it depending upon what the person wanted. MSC has some of the best and some of the worst things I've ever seen. I think the idea of the Auraria campus itself is fantastic. It's being used and I think it is a big tax saver for Colorado. There is money wasted, but you are going to see that on any campus in the country. "It has worked for my needs and I've been to five different schools. MSC is a very convenient school to come to." Jennifer Featherstone (UCD-Music) "Yeah, I would recommend UCD, especially the music program I am involved in now. Think UCD does a real good job. I'm impressed wuh being able to go to school near where I live. UCD is a quality university. The program I'm . enrolled in now is unique to the state and it is only offered in a couple of other parts of the country . . . That's why I was worried when the merger discussions were going on. I think there was a danger of some unique programs being phased · Out.''

Fowler: recodify education laws by Frank Mullen

State Senator Hugh Fowler (RLittleton) is the chairman of the Senate Education Committee and the chairman of the legislative interim study committee on education. Auraria students may remember Fowler as the author of Senate Bill-523, the proposed reorganization of Colorado's higher education system. , SB-523 included a provision to merge the University of Colorado at Denver with Metropolitan State College. The merger provision was amended from the bill soon after it reached the Senate floor, and later the Senate voted to kill · the bill. Fowler has had a life-long interest in quality of education. During his twelve years in the legislature he has proposed many changes in the educational system, 8. and is regarded by many as an expert in ~ the field of education. ai Fowler was interviewed Aug. 7 for ~ the Metro-Medium radio program - en ~-which is taped_ in the MSC Speech Depa~Sen. Hugh Fowler: has not abandoned tment and aired on seven local radio the merger idea. stations. The interview was conducted by Metro-Medium's host Steve Keely and week's METROPOLITAN you have Metropolitan editor Frank Mullen. quoted the governor's remarks to the meeting that we had over at St. Cajetan's .Keely: Senator Fowler, will you pur- a week ago. The governor pointed out sue SB-523 during the next session of the that the higher education situation in the legislature? state is a problem of "crisis proporFowler: At this moment I haven't tions." decided whether to ask the governor to I suppose I agree with that, except put it on his call or not. I notice in this that I use the word crisis to describe a (J)

problem of fairly short duration. So I don't think this is a crisis, I think this is a problem that is going to last for many years and it has been a problem for many years. It has been a problem because the legislature has been unwilling to deal with ·it and so if they decide to deal with it this year then perhaps we won't have the crisis anymore. Metropolitan: Why do you believe the legislature has been unwilling to deal with the problem? At Auraria, for instance, the campus has been put under the sunset provision, ... Can the problem be solved in a piecemeal way, within the existing system? Fowler: The legislature tends to work on everything in a piecemeal way with some notable exceptions. Every once in awhile it gets busy about something and it will recodify something. For instance, the water law was recodified in Senate Bill 81 in 1970 and the children's code was recodified, and the probate code .... Things like that are done in big packages. But usually the legislature nibbles away at these ideas and eventually they may do something that is really intelligent and really related to some clear and understandable objectives. Normally, if you don't set clear objectives for yourself you get nowhere. What was left of SB-523 was very important because some very important elements still lived in 523. For instance, the statutory role and mission statements. If wt!'had had those five or six years ago I

doubt if we would have very many problems with Auraria today. People would understand exactly what it is they are supposed to be doing and they would . be funded to do it. As it is the legislature is uncertain from year to year exactly what the individual institutions are charged to do and so when the legislature is uncertain it usually chooses the path of not funding anything at all. Metropolitan: Have you abandoned the idea of legislating a merger for the Auraria campus? Fowler: Oh no, I don't think I've abandoned it. I just haven't been thinking about it very much. I've been thinking about making a living. this summer. Keely: If such a merger did happen, do you think it would affect Metro's open admissions policy? There was a fear . when all the merger discussions were going on that many people who want to learn will never get a chance because of their past academic record. Fowler: The way the bill was introduced, the so-called open. admissions policy for the merged institution was even more liberal than it is under the trustees policy of so-called open enrollment. I think there is not a clear understanding of what that means. We have open enrollment policies for the community colleges, but we do not have open enrollment policies for the state colleges, Metro included. continued on page 16

Storicker lifted himself from his chair, ran a thick hand through thin white hair, and placed his broadbrimmed hat atop his head. He stretched his limbs, looked off across the athletic field, watched the reflections in the physical education building, and finished off his beer. "Well, looks like rain. Kind of scares me, remembering what happened back in eighteen and sixty-four. Did I tell you 'bout that one? Why, at least Denverites were killed and who knows how many outside of town.... .Well, got to be going.... Thanks for taking the time to listen to me, son." .

'Course, it got kind of crowded, especially around 1890 or so ... why, by then a lot of the Auraria area was only cramped housing of all sorts of working-class people, kind of a mish-mash, you might say. But, a lot of it was pretty nice still, like you can tell from the 9th Street that you preserved, and even that is what you might call middleclass, for the times. "But a lot was still happening down around where that Tramway building is, the one used now for your University of Colorado at Denver, as you call it.

by S. Peter Obray-Dito

'' Auraria was my old ground," says Mrs. Natalie Lovvorn, a lead custodian at Auraria. "That's why I wanted to have my son married at St. Cajetan's." The large, twin-towered yellow structure, formerly St. Cajetan's Church and now St. Cajetan's Performance Hall, is located at Lawrence and Ninth Streets. Natalie's son, Dennis, was wed to Kayla Sue Schneider at a ceremony there on August 18. Both Natalie and her husband, Jim, work at ~he Auraria Physical Plant. They obtained permission from Auraria Higher Education Center director Jerry Wartgow to use St. Cajetan's facilities. Over 50 people attended the ceremony, w~ich was held on a stage where the altar used to be. "This is the first wedding at . St. Cajetan 's since the area was redeveloped," says Natalie. She had her \1\'edding reception 23 years ago at 1044 .

(behind the Auraria Student Center). Later, when she married Jim, they moved to an apartment at 1041 Ninth Street. Two sons were born and they were both baptized at St. Cajetan's and attended the school there. "They really changed this place around," Natalie remembers. "They knocked down three buildings, including one where my mother lived for a while." That site is now occupied by the Child Care Center. The Mercantile, just west of West Classroom, used to be the neighborhood store. Even St. Cajetan's has been remodeled. " They removed all the saints' and the altar," says Natalie. The cavernous hall seemed rather sparse for a wedding, but the close family atmosphere filled the hall. "I'm really glad I could get everything together for this," says Natalie. It was a fitting tribute to an Aurarian... .family. . . ...._ .. _ ...

1a: __B_o_o_k_st_o_re__ continued from page 3 The limited market for textbooks means that the cost of production is going to be spread over fewer number of books. Unlike textbooks, the costs of a ~best seller are absorbed through paperback editions, movie or television rights. The textbook business is highly competitive. Kinney says the textbook industry "took off" in the late fifties with increasing numbers attending college. Now college enrollments have , dropped, but the many publishing com,.... panies still exist. Since production time is a minimum of three years after the book is written, the texts hit the market despite a decline in demand. As Kinney put it, ''the pie is cut into smaller pieces." The increases of paper and postage, ' the rise of wholesale used book distributors, and the re&ale of instructors' complimentary copies erodes the profits and causes the price to rise, Kinney says. Publishing houses send complimentary copies of textbooks for instructors to review. The publishers and authors lose i money when these texts are purchased by distributors who then sell them to the bookstore. The bookstores enjoy a greater mark-up, but the publishers get nothing in return for printing the books, and the authors lose the royalties. Sidestepping the publishers Kinney says, ,;: costs ''tens of thousands of dollars." The amount a publisher makes on a textbook varies depending on artwork complexity and textbook demand. ...... nm:b

~ART

Changing from hardcover to paperback would have little effect on the price since the binding is not the source of the high prices. Turk says paperbacks provide an illusionary savings to the students because their long-term value is not as great. The publishers say students should view their textbooks as lasting investments in their education. ''When you go to college, it is going to reap X amount of benefits, and you have to pay for that." Kinney says, "Books can be valuable tools is used properly." The cost of those "valuable tools," however, is destined to go up even more.

continued from page 16 of Metro is that UCD was down here for a very long time and that if the university had been meeting Denver's needs there would have been no reason to create a Metropolitan State College. How do you feel about that? Fowler: That is a bum rap for the university. The university did no more than the legislature permitted it to do. As an outreach program from the Boulder campus it was not funded the way it would have to be to accomplish some of

Films, sex turns Russ Meyer on

....___ _h_y_E_m_e_rs_o_n_Sc_h_w_a_rt_z_k_o_p_f_~I Pagan's is one of those bars in South Denver people go to for the purpose "of being there," as opposed to the old-fashioned notion of just drinking. The Parisian-style awning, dark lighting, "progressive" rock 'n' roll muzak, and specially-treated, almost-authenic weathered wood interior give the bar that type of rustic gaudiness popular in Colorado today. And, as the gracefully unemployed mingle with the early wave of whitecollars for the start of happy hour, talking mainly of Lyle Alzado, Russ Meyer sits in a dark corner of Pagan's · reading a newspaper. Russ Meyer. King of the Nudies. "King Leer," as a writer from The WaU Street Journal once tagged him. The maker of over 20 movies featuring bonecracking violence, aggressive big-chested women, and full-bore fornication in a style Playboy's Bruce Williamson calls ''cornography. '' Russ Meyer, porn purveyor, sits in a South Denver bar drinking a Molson beer and reading the newspaper about the latest incident about United Nations Ambassador Andrew Young-reading for information, not another movie idea. "Oh no," Meyer says. "Imagine trying to shoot in Saudi Arabia with nudity. Years ago, I went to visit a friend in Libya-we had a base there, Wheeler Air Force Base.

MUSIC

"He was a typical Southern redneck, and he really resented it when he had to land in Saudi Arabia and go through Arabian customs. As be put it, he just disliked men who treated him that way and wore dresses. Not that they mistreated him, but that they frisked him for booze and dirty pictures.'' Meyer lets out a short laugh, a laugh tempered by discomfort from no food this day and a painful left shoe. As he talks, he alternates between rubbing his

left foot and rearranging a stack of quarters on the bar. Russ Meyer, 57, talks, looks, and acts like some distant uncle who made it big in California real estate after the Big War, and now drives around in a big, white Eldorado two-door hardtop. At a little over six feet tall, slicked-back slightly-graying hair, slim black mustache, and a large torso leading to an ample stomach, he personifies an image described by Esquire's John Simon as "a

former prizefighter now operating a successful chain of South American~ brothels.'' The polyester mating of a green shirt and gray slacks complete the picture of the wheeler-dealer, the harddriving man getting what he wants. Russ Meyer gets what he wants-the chance to finance, create, direct, and produce his own films.

.,_ To live is human, to film divine. by S. Peter Duray-Bito REAL LIFE. Starring Albert Brooks, . ,!;barles Grodin and Frances Lee McCain. 41l>irected by Albert Brooks. Released by Paramount. At The Flick, Larimer Square. For those of us who can cut through the haze at 11 :30 p.m. during NBC's Saturday Night Live, the name Albert ~ Brooks seems familiar. During SNL's first season, he filmed six short documentary lampoons - the most memorable being "Super Seasons," a cutting look into fall line-up advertising by the networks. Those short films exhibited a brilliant, incisive mind that was well,.versed in the, by now-patented, SNL lampoon style. With his first full-length feature, Brooks comes off brilliant at 'times, but confused and unfocused at others. The basic concept is novel and timely - to parody a rather sophisticated experimen" ;:taI documentary that appeared on Public I3roadcasting Service in 1973. The documentary, entitled An American Family, showed the Loud family's life for a year. Brooks' contention is that such a reality venture is plainly absurd. The Yeager family of Phoenix, Arizona is selected, after months of ~xhaustive testing at a fictitious behavioral institute, as the perfect family. Mr. Yeager (Charles Grodin) is a veterinarian and Mrs. Yeager (Frances

Lee McCain) has menstrual cramps. Brooks uses cameras shaped like astronaut helmets with lenses behind the visor to film the family's activities . Brooks himself plays the part of the producer - a young Hollywood filmmaker with a penchant for drama and action. When the Yeagers enter a period of depression, Brooks becomes impatient with the "boredom" and attempts to add a little spice into their life. That js essentially what Brooks is showing us - how the production interferes with the family's lives. Beyond that, the film also looks at a Hollywood ·producer's mythical beliefs about what people in America are really like. The film is torn between a straight parody of the social documentary and Brooks' own satirical social comments. The development is along both these lines: as a well-executed documentarystyle lampoon, with which Brooks has had some experience, and as a mouth- At times Brooks interferes with the piece for Brooks. When Mr. Yeager parody and at others, one wishes be makes a mistake during by-pass surgery would let loose and display his full range on a horse and loses it, Brooks consoles of comic talents. With the exception of, some faulty the depressed vet, "to err is human, to film divine."

Because of the effect of placing the tivities paced at the speed of a coming atviewer at a comfortable distance through tractions clip-garners Meyer millions of the documentary technique and the rever- dollars and a large cult following.

Dixon says Sedillo next ''whit~ hope'' victim .• "I love to fight those white hopes," Vicksburg, Mississippi heavyweight James Dixon said at the announcement that he would be facing Arvadan IrishMexican heavyweight hopeful Eric Sedillo, in the main event ten rounder at Denver's Stockyards Arena, September 21.

•

President Jesse Mora of the Rocky Mountain Boxing Club said tickets for the five bout card can be purchased by calling 237-0496, and will be placed on sale in September. at all Dave Cook Spor-

ting Goods locations. Mora said the club is negotiating to present a title bout for the Colorado and Rocky Mountain professinal junior welterweight title. Tickets are priced at $10 ringside. $8 box and reserved seats, and $6 general admission. "I beat (Robert) 'Iron Man' Echols, Nick Wells, and Ron Stander twice, I beat 'em like they were a stepchild," said the 6'3", 190 pound Dixon who carries a 19-6-1 record. "I don't plan to have any trouble with a kid with 12 fights. I should

win on experience alone." While both Sedillo and Dixon are 27, and turned pro in 1976, Dixon has had more than twice as many bouts as Sedillo. Dixon's style as a moving, jabbing boxer will give puncher Sedillo problems according to Rocky Mountain Boxing Club matchmaker Michael Klahr. "Sedillo established himself nationally as a puncher," Klahr said, ''by knocking Cookie Wallace down and out in the first round-last June. Number one heavyweight contender John Tate took

nine rounds to wear down Wallace on national TV last year, and never floored the granite-jawed veteran. Sedillo has won 11 of his twelve ·bouts, 8 by KO, and is risking a ten bout winning streak. ~ · "But Sedillo was carried the distance, having to fight hard to win in two of his last three bouts, by men with Dixon's style," Klahr said, citing Jim Ingram and Leroy Caldwell. "And those boxers hadn't beaten the fighters Dixon has."

reapply it and he had me nailed. He wanted a definite answer on this film (Vixen) ... and (Chief Justice) Burger wrote back a one word reply-denied. "Keating was totally set upon getting me in the iron hotel." In addition, Meyer's films will come under a new law in Texas prohibiting the showing of any act of sex-simulated or actual-in a film "without social redeeming significance." "Of course," Meyer says, referring to the large movie studios, "their argument will be 'we are making socially redeeming films, and therefore this sex between Jackie Onassis and Steve McQueen is necessary,' as was 'ratfucking' in A// The President's Men. "I've played already in Texas-I've done well-I'm not going to get in there and wail away. I'm not going to be the pussy-foot for somebody else-let someone else take up the cudgel." The laws and the crusaders fail to daunt Meyer from making films - something he's been doing for 43 years, since his mother pawned her engagement ring to buy Meyer his first movie camera. movie camera. "I got really hooked," Meyer says, "by having an eight millimeter camera given to me. It's something that took hold of me right by the scrotum and said 'this is what I want to do."' From there, Meyer put what money he earned into filming and entered several contest for amateurs. Meyer served with the U.S. Army pictorial services during World War II, further developing his technique. After the war, Me)'er worked as a "still" photographer on Hollywood movie sets. " You had to be aggressive," Meyer says, "al)d show a lot of balls with the actors as they had a tendency to intimidate 'still' men-still men in the film industry are the lowest forms of life and they.'re always ir\trudipg, slowing down a the productJ.on.: ~~ ifryotf, jusi., dos IL

stand up to them and say I'm sorry ... " Meyer, as a photographer on th9--· movie sets, molded a forceful character that continues today. "It was kind of an aggression that I developed that is helpful with what I do. today," he says. "I'm a real ballbuster when I work-I get turned on by what I do." Meyer, with over 20 films to credit, didn't get the chance to make one recently as planned-with the British punk rock group, The Sex Pistols. The film entitled Who Killed Bambi?, "just ran out of money," Meyer says. "It was just mismanagement on t~ part of the manager, Malcolm McLaren. We shot three days, and then folded. Sad thing. ~'Two of them (the Pistols) were very level-headed-(Steve) Jones and (Paul) Cook. (Johnny) Rotten and (Sid) Vicious were each into their own-they were difficult guys. But I think I could've made i~ (the film) if I would've had sufficient control." Meyer's next film, The Jaws of Vixen, will be a retrospective of his previous pictures. "I'm going to put it together," Meyer says, "with a straight-forwar~~ statement from myself insofar as how I think, what I feel, why I did this, and how it turned me on. It' s a p~rsonal type of interview that I think will work on more than one level. I think it can work as an art type of film. and at the same time a commercial picture. )lo.. ~ "Recently I had a lingo exchange when I showed this film (Ultravixens) at Boston University.

Although the squad had a hard time breaking even last year (6-7-6), Coach Temmer has reason to be optimistic. In addition to the talented Huebner; a member of the 1978 All-Far West squad, Temmer has ten more returning lettermen. . The Roadrunners have dropped both pre-season contests. After losing 4-2 to
