Others at the meeting said the projected decline, if it occurs, may be off-set by the sagging economy, and students who enroll at a later age than their predecessors. Auraria, where the average age is 28, is. an example of the ''older student" trend. Declining enrollments and the 7 percent limitation on state spending has caused a crisis in higher education, Lamm said. The roles and missions of some Colorado institutions will have to be changed, Lamm told the CU faculty Sept. 18.

Aging can·spark role-reversal

by Lauren Conway Middle-aged children ~ry to become parents to their parents, an expert on aging told an audience at St. Josephs }Hospital Sept. 22, and this attempt to reverse roles almost always ends in disaster. Dr . Arthur Schwartz spoke at ·the Metropolitan State College seminar titled "You and Your Aging Parents." Schwartz is the author of several books, his latest is entitled Survival Handbook ,..._For Children o( Aging Parents.

homes are run this way. Schwartz said fllthough the job may be done more efficiently, the older person loses all dignity and self-respect when he or she is treated like a child. Schwartz said efficiency is a "Key word.'' Audience members asked what to do when the~r parents couldn't do something "efficiently." Schwartz told them to let their parents· do it in their own inefficient way, and maintain their dignity. The problems of the aging are some-

are scared of turning old, ~nd they try to fool themselves, and others. "The other trap is to over-respond. This comes about when people feel guilty about what has happened to their parents, and want to make it up to them, by taking care of them," he said. Schwartz referred to nursing homes for the elderly as ''sterile, systematic warehouses that reduce people to their lowest common denominator.'' He described an experience he had when . he visited a nursing home in California. The

times viewed with apathy, but this may change as the number of aged people increases. More than 11 percent of the population today is over sixty-five years of age, he said. This figure will increase due to the "baby boom" following World War IL It is predicted that by the year 2000, almost fifty percent of the population will be fifty years old or older. "It is what we call the graying of America," Schwartz said.

If you need to catch more than one bus to get to your destination , just ask for a free transfer when you CJitCh the Ride. The driver will be happy to give you one. Then when you need to change buses, just give the transfer to your new driver. And you're all set. If you're transfering from one route to another that

costs more (i.e., local to express) all you have to do is pay the difference in fares between the two routes.

"For 244 years," he said, "we were things and not persons. We were property subject to the dictates of our masters." He talked of the denial of black contributions to U.S. history, noting the invention of the cotton gin originated-with, a slave. Abernathy discussed segregation: the "hundred years of separate but equal" following emancipation. He spoke of the individual battles fought to earn a seat at the front of the bus, to claim the right to an education, and to achieve the right to vote. He emphasized the importance voting, a right, he said, blacks died for. "I will always vote," he said, . "because I will never forget." Abernathy urged the audience to tell their children about the struggle of American blacks so that "no one will forget." If "future generations are unawar~ of the past, he said, history may repeat itself. Today, Abernathy see little progress since the sixties. The vast majority of blacks and poor people are "worse off now than they were in the sixties,'' he said. He blames inflation and taxes. The-tax burden, he said, is placed on middle Americans. He suggested the tax burden be placed "where it belongs, on the wealthy corporations." Abernathy criticized ''government inaction" in providing jobs and income for the nation's poor. He welcomes the. possibility of "a Kennedy challenge to the man in the White House, who has forgotten who put him there." He closed his speech by urging universal goodwill. "You must believe in the worth of all human personalities," he said. "You_. must believe in your own worth, if you expect anyone else to treat you with respect." Abernathy is a long-time civil rights activist. A Martin Luther King protege and Baptist minister, he helped organize the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, assuming the presidency of .the_. conference after King's death. He led the Poor People's Campaign - an attempt to take the needs and demands of the poverty-stricken to Washington.

Last year more than 20,000 students made use of the Locater Service, and student information was provided to more than 150 graduate schools around the country, according to ETS. Students sign up by completing the registration form contained in the Information Bulletin. It is the same form used to registger for the Graduate Record Examinatons, comprehensive aptitude and advanced tests used in the admissions process by many of the nation's graduate schools. Students do not have to take the GRE to use the Locater Service. The Locater Service is not an application to graduate school or for financial assistance and does not constitute a guarantee of admissions or financial aid. The Information Bulletin explains all students must know to participate in the service. Copies of the bulletin may be obtained at most colleges or by writing to MGSLS, Box 2615, Prillceton, N.J. 08541.

Guest Editorial

MSC needs philosophy, languages , by William E. Rhodes, Ph.D. ,

Culminating a series of studies and conferences, the staff of the Colorado Commission on Higher Education recommended to the Commission on September 7, 1979, increased coordination of selected programs common to ·Metropolitan· State College and The University of Colorado as well as transfer of the programs of Modern Languages and Philosophy from MSC to UCD. The Commission will act on the recommendations October 5, 1979. If approved, the recommendations must be implemented not later than February 1, 1980. Plans for implementation, if approved, must be complete not later than November 30, 1979. The President of MSC and the Trustees for the State Colleges oppose the transfer of Modern Languages and Philosophy programs to UCD. The ·Trustees take further action on the CCHE Staff recommendations September 28th. The MSC Senate, with one dissenting vote, supported retention of Modern Languages and Philosophy at its meeting September 20th. Currently the Liberal Art Faculty of MSC is signing a statement supporting retention. The Department of Philosophy proposes MSC retention of the program in MSC but with ·close coordination with UCD's program in philosophy, such coordination including a common major, non-duplication of all courses except introduction to philosophy, and appointment of a coordinator for the two programs. The Department of Modern Languages has a similar . proposal. The arguments for retention of Modern Languages and Philosophy both at MSC and UCD may be summarized as follows: 1.

MSC. This applies even more for students than for faculty. 20. A real and quite functional "stream" of academic "flow" within both UCD and MSC respectively will be impeded or lost by peremptory structural ~ changes imposed from outside the institutions. The educational programs of hun.Qred of students will be disrupted severly by some of the drastic proposals of the CCH~ Staff, particularly if carried out at this time. When an effective arrangement between UCD and MSC (and possibly including CCD-Auraria) is made for common regis- :i.r tr<1,tion along with common announcement of courses in a common catalog and common semester scheduling announcement, the_ aims of the CCHE Staff proposal likely will be achieved and without transferring Modern Languages and Philosophy from MSC. 21. A more beneficial emphasis for the CCHE and the - _ Legislature would be directing attention to the overlap of administrations at Auraria. For example, integrating Auraria Higher Education Commission into orie or both the academic institutions would be a great impro_vement upon the present arrangement. 22. As Commissioner Benton said at the September 7th meeting, "An educational institution without a department of philosophy is no educational institution at all." The same can be said for Modern Languages. MSC should retain these two key departments and programs. 23. Now is the time for Metropolitan State College, with the good faith support of the Colorado Commission on Higher Education and all parties con- ~ cerned, to move on to achievement of its original "Dream" and its mandated role/ mission with its departments of Modern Languages and Philosophy intact as integral programs. The Legisla.t ure by way of the CCHE has brought a proper challenge to the Auraria academic institutions. The challenge is being met creatively, responsibly and • with good will by UCD and MSC on the whole. Now is the time for all responsible parties involved to make the newly achieved coordination work for the good of the citizens of Colorado and especially for the current and potential students at the University of Colorado and Metropolitan State College.

This compendium of arguments has been developed by William E. Rhodes, Ph.D., Professor of Philosophy. He will be glad to discuss any or all of thest: reO.Sons with anyone concerned about the topics discussed.

feature Now hear this! ROTC on campus by Lou Chapman

The United States Army invaded the Auraria campus; but don't worry, it's all academic. · Beginning this semester, the Department of Military Science at the University of Colorado (Boulder), through MSC, is offering its Army officer training program to Auraria students. The program, the Army Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC), is designed to prepare college students for an army commission as a second lieutenant, counts for full academic credit, provides a tax. free stipend during the"last half of the four-year program, and has its own scholarship program. ROTC, according to Lt. Col. Charlie Thompson, Professor of Military Science, is divided into the Basic Program (the first four semesters) and the Advanced Program (the last four semesters). Depending on a student's prior military service, or college or high school ROTC experience, Thompson said, he or she may be exempt from the Basic Program and only be required to complete the Advanced Program - the part that pays the tax-free monthly 'payment of $100 for up ten months a year. Thompson said a student who is a member of the Army Reserves may concurrently be enrolled in the ROTC Advanced Program. The student would be

fering the basic, first-semester orien- 1 tation class, designed to prepare a freshman or sophomore for the advanced pro-. gram. Students with no prior military service, he said, can learn what the army is about, the role of an officer, and the basics of leadership and management. "The second year zeroes in on it," Thompson said. "The whole thing is based along the lines of leadership and management ... not the hup, two, three, four stuff." During the Basic Program, a student has no obligation to continue with the program or to perform succeeding military service, he said. . "It's just to see if it's your cup of tea," he· said. "And it's all classroom stuff." The final four semesters of the Advanced Program involves development of military skills such as map reading, tac- -E tics, military instruction, studies of the il'. military justice system, and officer ~ development. Some of the classes will be taught at "Areas like law enforcement, aviation, the National Guard Center, 300 Logan comptroller operations, and, of course, St. the basic disciplines; infantry and arDuring the last four semesters the tillery and such." student receives the stipend, he said, and Thompson said a graduate of the also must commit him or herself to some program does not have to go into the acform of military obligation following tive (full-time) Army, but may instead completion of the program. accept a commission in...the Army Reser"Students will receive full academic ves or National Guard.

officer, it is three years. Thompson said the reserve commission is "the best thing ROTC has going for it." A second lieutenant in the Reserves, he said, can earn about $2,000 a year - for one weekend a month and two weeks o.f summer camp. He said an active army second lieutenant is earning "in excess of $13,000'a year," plus standard Military benefits. Thompson said ROTC scholarships continued on page 8

Now· ACCEPTING . APPLICATIONS placed in an officer trainee position in an Army Reserve or National Guard unit, and in addition to the monthly $100 stipend, receive pay from the Reserves or National Guard at the minimum of a "buck sergeant" salary. ·This is the Simultaneous Membership Program (SMP). "We feel that these two ·programs (prior servicemen beginning the program in the final four semesters and the SMP) are two very strong points here at Metro because of the high veteran population," Thompson said. ''The decision was made this year to start the ROTC program at Metro," he said, "because of the tremendous amount of student interest in the Denver area." Thompson said the course consjsts of about 16 semester hours of military science, varying from one to three credit hours each semester. Currently, the department is of-

all students whether or not they are ROTC participants," Thompson said. ~'All of the military science instructors hold a minimum of a Master of Science degree in various disciplines and we all have from 8 to 22 years' of military experience." Thompson and his staff - a total of six people - are in the middle of applying for a Department of Military Science at MSC. In addition of the coU'rses taught by th.e military science department, the ROTC candidate must in the senior year take a political science class in international relations and a military history course or an alternate modern history topic, he said. After graduation, Thompson said, the successful ROTC student attends six to eight weeks of training for one of 34 military specialities. · ''These are areas that would directly relate to many MSC studies," he said.

of clients. "The girl and I would be dressed as though we were on a casual date," he said. "If you saw us in the street you would never suspect she was a hooker." The escort fee was $35-45. That fee, he said, "went right to the service." Any extras were negotiated by the escort once she was inside the house, apartment, or motel room . Gino said the women usually made $100-200 a trip, with 4-8 trips a night. He described a typical transaction: "I drive the. girl to the house and walk her up to the door. When the guy answers I ask him for his driver's license. Cops have 'PD' on theirs, so if this guy is a cop I just walk away. The client has to sign a paper saying, 'I so-and-so am joining a swingers club for $45 and no sex has been offered to me in exchange for my membership. I hereby certify I am not a law enforcement officer'. It's all up to me. If I don't think_the guy is cool we get out." The $45, he said, entitles the client to a "rap session" and a "nude body rub." "She sits there and talks to you but you can't touch her," he said. "That $45 just gets the girl to the client and the girl and I don't get any of that. The girl works on tips. Whatever else goes on inside I couldn't tell you for sure but she always comes out with more money than she goes in with." Most of the time the escort r.eturned

Gino the driver pounded the electronic football game in Lyle Alzado's bar while a lady with orante hair tried to watch the Bronco game on the TV. Gino's opponent scored another goal, Gino yelled, and the lady with the orange hair glared at bim. "They should turn that game off when the Bronco,s are playing," ~he lady said. "'Somebody should turn you off lady," Gino said, as his opponent sent littie X's of light down to Gino's end of the screen and stopped Gino's team on his own ten yard line. "Let's get outta here," Gino ·said, staring at the woman near the TV. "I can't stand rude people." Later, Gino drove along Leetsdale Drive and talked about his former job as an "escort service" driver. "I didn't like the job," he said. "I lasted two months. It was a pimp job. I made the contact with the client and what I was doing was selling the girl for an hour." Gino worked for one of the escort services advertised in the daily papers. He worked an eight hour shift, used his own car, paid for his own gas, and made 10 percent of the "escort's" take. Gino, which is not his real name, would pick up the woman at her home, drive around town, and call the escort service every half-hour to get the names and addresses ~

Thompson, in his 22-year military career, has twice been a battalion commander and has worked on the Pentagon staff.

"PSC would love to have people fill out their own meter reading cards and send them in by the required date," said Renner. "That is the easy way to handle this." Reeves said that PSC has a special group of meter readers that go out at odd times to read the meters of people who were absent at the time of the first attempted reading. When PSC does get an actual reading after estimating a bill, the "computer backs up and takes into account degree dates, and fuel costs to see if the customer was over or under billed,'' said Reeves. "If they were over billed, the amount over paid will be applied as credit to their account. If they were under billed, they will be billed for the amount owed." Renner said PUC considers it the customers' responsibility to give PSC ac· cess to their meters.

feature Metro grad~s 'kids' are champs by Joan Conrow After attending college for several years and hearing the horror stories of graduates .who are unable to find jobs due to the tightness of the market and the flood of applicants, it is refreshing to discover an alumnus who not only found employment - but who excelled at his job as well. Ron Keefe, Physical Education instructor in the Sheridan Elementary School District, is such a person. Keefe said he was a "typical" Metropolitan State College student. He started college at the age of 23 after a hitch in the Marine Corps. "I looked at Metro's curriculum and decided it was for me," Keefe said. ''Metro's program was what prompted me to go into P.E.'' He enjoyed the small classes and the one-on-one dealings with faculty, and feels the program at MSC is more rigorous and complete than -at other schools. "You have to have a proficiern:y in fifteen or sixteen activities at MSC, which I found to be more than was required at Greeley or CU," he said. Keefe found his academic background instrumental in landing him a teaching job soon after graduation. "When I was being interviewed for this job, I was asked why I'd taken so many classes. I told them they were all required," Keefe said. "They told me they

didn't need to interview anyone else, that it was all on paper. I had good recommendations and-a good curriculum." . Keefe, a stocky, bearded man in his. late twenties, teaches about 400 students in the first through sixth grades at Alice Terry and Fort Logan Elementary schools. "I enjoy my kids. The different levels really keep me going," said Keefe. "My schedule's tight and 1 have some long days, but I'm a teacher first. That's where my priorities are." Although this is only Keefe's second year of teaching, he has already begun to make a name for himself and "his kids.'' "I wanted to do something great in my first year, so I decided I'd have the kids test for the President's Physical Fitness Award," he said. This involves a series of stringent tests in running and other exercises. Alice Terry Elementary School was the state champion in.both 1978 and 1979. "It's like winning the Super Bowl twice in a row for little kids' P .E. ," explained Keefe. ''After they won the Award, I was given a lot bigger budget, so now I can do more for my kids. "I like to feel like I can be a friend too, not just a coach or a teacher," Keefe said. And, if the comments of boys on his soccer team at Sheridan High School are any indication, he is successful in achieving a good rapport with older kids as well.

"He's the best coach we've ever had at this school," said Burrell Graves, a senior in his fourth year on the team. "He's taught us more; there's no end to what we've· learned. None of the other coaches we've had had any background. He's super." Bryan Bruce, a junior who played for Sheridan three years and on a youth soccer team also praises Keefe. "He's the best coach I've ever had. He's more of a friend too than just a coach. He's good, and the rest of the team shares my feelings," he said. Graves said he'll probably go to

Metro because of their "super flying school" and "great soccer team." Although he enjoys coaching and did his student-teaching at Arvada West High School, Keefe said he prefers working with younger kids. "I just like the variation in their moods. Keeping up with those little kids is tough! They have so much energy! If you don't go home t~red and wasted, you haven't done a good job that day," Keefe said. Keefe said he could not be doing as well in his job if he hadn't learned the basics at Metro. "They have a mature program for a mature person. My instructors were great, especially Dr. James Bryant. He was the main man." Keefe ran out and gave some of his soccer players a few tips and came back smiling and shaking his head. "I have a good time. I couldn't have a better job.

TIME AFTER TIME . .Starring Malcolm McDowell, David Warner and Mary Steenburgen. Directed by Nicholas Meyer. A Warner Brothers.release at the Brentwood 4, Colorado 4, Tamarac 6 and Westminster 6. Time is one of the more intriguing ideas to result from the scientific revolution. True, time has been around for centuries - as long as man can remember. But with the language of science, time has taken on a new form. It is the fourth dimension; a coordinate as important as those of space. Hy~othetically, one can travel through time, which lends itself superbly to script plots. Time After Time is by no means the first time travel movie. Its contentions are simple and direct, as opposed to complex psycho-scientific time warp ideas devised by science fiction authors. In short; the idea that H.G. Wells travels through time to find Jack the Ripper is shy from being real science fiction. The film begins in Victorian England, where the Ripper is on a rampage and H.G. Wells has just finished his time machine and is rather nervous about using it. The opportunity comes, though, as a dinner guest turns out to be the Rip-

per and conveniently uses the machine to escape. He is transported to November 5, 1979 . . The film untracks from this predictable plot as Wells follows the Ripper to the Modern Age. A series of short, marginally incisive interludes show Wells conscientiously taking notes on what he thinks is utopia. Coming down the steps of the San Francisco Art Museum, he narrowly avoids a group of chanting Krishnas and later marvels at the fine wood used in a McDonald's table. He looses his notes dodging cars at an intersection while eyeing a model in plastic pants. Wells finally finds the Ripper, but not before making the acquaintance of a young woman (Mary Steenburgen) at the foreign currency exchange desk. The Ripper insists that he has found his place, showing Wells the violent evening news on TV and claiming "Ninety years ago I was a freak. Today I'm an amateur. " And Wells seems like an amateur, too; his awkward stumbling into an affair with Steenburgen underscores that each man will find what he's looking for. In an inspired moment, Wells even discovers that the garbage disposal will indeed chew on a spoon. The overall ambience of the film would qualify as a Disney release except for the violent tendencies of the Ripper. Nicholas Meyer directed the film - his

... first - in a classical story-telling manner. His previous effort was the book and screenplay The Seven-Percent Solution which hypothesized a meeting between Sherlock Holmes and Sigmund Freud. As a director, Meyer adds a conservative, elegant quality to this picture. Malcolm McDowell puts in a good performance, but his repetoire of incredulous expressions run out on him. He seems a bit too little-boyish in demeanor to suit the accepted conception of H.G. Wells ·- however right or wrong that

may be. He fits in just right, though, for the cautious romance with Steenburgen, whose role-reversed courting adds an Annie Hall touch. The violence and special effects are rather conventional by Taxi Driver and Star Wars standards. Still, the psychoeffects junkie will find some solace in this film while taking in a good, well-made movie. Time After Time's exercise in changing the course of history provides no new revelation; everything this movie has to say has been said before.

Fresh alternative to usual Tamarac fare CHILI'S 7777 E. Hampden, Tamarac Square. Open daily Tamarac Square's two eating institutions, Houlihan's and Bagel Nosh, have now been joined by an unpretentious restaurant called Chili's. Born in Dallas and featuring Texas chili (what else?), Chjli's pleasant, spacious atmosphere neatly covers up any evidence of being just another franchise. Green tile and wooden beams are carefully integrated with little Mexican charms dolls, statues and oro de Dios. To be honest, Chili's chili is not the· kind you would find in Texas. It is milder, but still has a distinctive blend that should be a favorite among those who don't expect Texas in Colorado. Their large selection of burgers is topped by the Terlingua Pride which includes everything but the kitchen sink. It comes in a paper-lined basket and it takes a bit

of feeling around to find the bottom of the burger. other burgers include ones with various additions of cheese, chili, onions and hickory sauce. A single variety of soft-shell taco is offered, as is a hot dog with chili. The homemade fries come in a paper-lined basket and are well seasoned with salt and pepper. With its friendly atmosphere and excellent, conscientious service, Chili's is well worth the price. The top burger (kitchen sink model) calls for $2. 70 but will certainly fill you up. If on a tight budget, one can get in and out for four dollars but five is more reasonable estimate to come out of there healthily burping. Chili's also shuttles orange freaks in their own double-decker bus every eligible Sunday. They provide free beer, chips and a burger for five dollars and a fun ride with other desperate seatwarmers. For more information call 7556668.

Comic McCollum at The Mission A "comic", a "musician" . . . "a musical-comic-actor-impressionist" are phrases that attempt to describe a marvelous new talent, Mark Mccollum. McCollum will perform Oct. 9 at 11 p.m. in the Auraria Student Center Mission. Admission is free. He recently won the Third Annual San Francisco Stand-up Comedy Competition with uncanny impressions of munchkins, cartoon artists and musical artists from Joel Grey to Johnny Cash to Led Zeppelin. Mccollum weaves. his act together with a universal story line of childhood and adolescence drawn from

his own life. Performances in nightclubs, concerts and colleges have polished Mark's act to perfection. He also appeared on various television comedy specials. · Critics have the following comments: "Impressions so on target they might as well have been Memorex."(Berkeley Barb) .... "McCollum's renditions brought shouting and stomping demands for a double encore . . . perfectly on all mark." (Los Angeles Times). All are invited to ·the free performance.

MSC-UCD Jazz Ensemble plays The first performance of the newly consolidated University of Colorado at Denver and Metropolitan State C0llege jazz ensemble will be held Wednesday, Oct. 3 at 8 p.m. in the St. Cajetans Church, located on the Auraria campus at 9th and Lawrence Streets. In addition to the consolidated jazz .ensembles, UCD developed both a "Latin/Salsa" group and a Fusion Ensemble. The program is under the direction of Dr. Walter Barr, associate professor of music at UCD. Both the Jazz and Salsa ensembles

have begun to receive national recognition by being invited to perform at the national convention of the National Association of Jazz Educators which will be held in January. "We are excited about the potential of these consolidated jazz 'ensembles and feel that the effort to develop ensembles with the latin-jazz flavor is right in step with today's new musical directions," Barr said. Barr said the public is welcome to attend the free performance.

MSC soccer squad nabs 3rd place in Texas The Metropolitan State soccer team placed third out of a field of eight schools in the Texas Invitational Soccer Tournament last weekend. Metro state beat Abilene Christian University 9-0 in the opening game. In the semifinal match Texas Tech defeated Metro under bizarre conditions. The game was played in the late afternoon and was postponed at half-time until the following morning due to rain. At the postponement Texas Tech was ahead 1-0. Tech scored with a penalty kick the next day, sealing MSC's doom. Third place was decided with a 2-1 victory over Sam

Houston State. In post game activities Metro player Vic Stump was nominated to the invitational All Star Team. Metro is now 1-0 in the National Athletic Intercollegiate Association Dist. 7 league and 2-1 in the Rocky Mountain Intercollegiate Soccer League. Metro is preparing for an Oct. 6 contest with rival Regis College. The Regis game is typically a fast and hard hitting match.
