MSC• UCD merger n1•xe d ' by· cCff£ $ f Ud y by Steve Raabe

Metropolitan State College and the University of ColoradoDenver should not be merged, according to the fi~a! study br the Colorado Comrmssion on Higher Education (CCHE). The CCHE submitted the recommendation Jan. 8 to the joint education committees of the Colorado General Assembly. The study was in response to la~t year's House Bill 1498 ordenng . the CCHE to make rec?~en~ations concerning the admm1stratlve and governance structure of the Auraria campus. The commission's report con- . sidered three separate. models of governance for Aurana. Two of these would have merged MSC and UCD _one plan calling for the University of Colorado Board of

Regents to ~~vern the. schools, the other reqmrmg an m~ependent governing board. The t~ir~ model, accepted by the comnussion on a 6-1 vote, called for the rete~tion ~f the three Aurari~ sc~ools m their present form with mdependent governing boards. The CCHE ci~ed the co~solidation of various academic departments between M~C and UCD as a major justification f?r continuing the present Aurar~a structure.

-'Nightclub surprises AHEC officials I I by Lou Chapman

brother, Kevin Caldwell, is the third owner. Craig and David Keefe also own the Blue Goose of Glendale, 4750 Leetsdale Dr. Keefe explained the new business will open "around April l" as a 3.2 dance nightclub, with hours from 8 p.m. until midnight. Then, in another four weeks or so, they plan to open the second floor for dancing, and shortly thereafter to open· the first floor during the day for din!ng.

Thirstys, a 3 .2 restaurant and nightclub, is expected to open adjacent to the - Auraria campus this spring and its addition to the community has taken the Auraria board of directors by surprise. Thirstys will be located in a now vacant three-story red brick building at 901 Wazee St., on the northern fringe of the campus north of the Auraria tennis • courts. The Auraria dfrectors acted with surprise at a regular meeting on December 10, 1979, when Jerry Wartgow, Auraria Higher Education Center executive director, announced to the board the issuance of the 3.2 liquor license for Thristys. ~ Owners of Thirstys said they received their liquor license a year ago and were surprised that the issuance was unopposed and without input from Auraria officials. "We were surprised that we were never contacted by the school," said David Keefe, one of three co-owners. • "When they did contact us, just recently, they seemed shocked that we already had the license.'' The board of directors had decided at the December 10 meeting to investigate the case history of applications for building and liquor permits for Thirstys ~ and to have the procedure examined by the attorney general's office. The board § could not understand why they had not u.. been notified or questioned about the ,§ establishment. . u Wartgow said no one at Auraria had The third floor of the building might been contacted by Thirstys or at least be leased as office space and the ,~ there was nothing in the Auraria records. basement will be storage.

to Larimer Square places where sandwich plates can cost around five bucks.'' Caldwell said each dance floor is 8,000 square feet and the nightclub will be able to hold 1,200 to 1,300 people. The restaurant will seat 500. Wartgow said problems that might arise with the proximity of such a nightclub include parking, litter, vandalism, and "general security." "We assume they'll operate in good faith," Wartgow said. "The worst

has its own parking lot adjacent to the building, and the owners are considering leasing one Auraria lot and land west of and behind their building. "Our business won't really get going until nine or so at night, Keefe said, the last hour of the school day there." "So we don't anticipate any problems with harassment of students ... or students bothering our customers." Craig Caldwell said the idea of opening during the day, with a lunch

scenario is disruption we couldn't tolerate ... but I have no reason to believe they won't cooperate." The owners of Thirstys and Aur-aria officials have agreed to meet to discuss any possible problems and arrangements. Keefe said he and his partners will have an off-duty policeman on the premises at night and will employ their own security force. He said they will monitor the parking lots and increase the lighting around the building itself. Keefe also emphasized that the Auraria parking lot nearest Thirstys is vacant at night, even during school terms, and the nearest classrooms are about two blocks away. He said Thirstys

menu, was an afterthought, the original idea being only to operate four hours a night. Keefe said when they first bought the building they hadn't expected any business from the school except maybe on Friday nights. "Then we said, hey, we have this building, and there's 24 hours in a day, and if we're only using it four hours a·day when there's a campus nearby with maybe 20,000 students ... well, we decided to consider opening during the day," Keefe said. Because of delays with financing, the exact opening date of Thirstys is tentative, according to Craig Caldwell.

vote by its board of directors, there was only one dissenting vote. . Although the park to be created by relocation would extend from the steps of the DCPA's Grand Staircase to the west bank traffic lanes, Seawell said his interest in the area stems from a belief that "once the (current city) plan was adopted any chance of developing that area around Cherry Creek is forever lost.'' After coming to this realization, Seawell discussed the situation with a most unlikely ally, Michael Howard. Howard is the editor of the Rocky Mountain News. Since the News-Post rivaJrY is almost as old as the Denver-Auraria conflict, news of the strange partnership raised eyebrows throughout the metropolitan area . Sea well dismisses any sinister notions about his relationship with Michael Howard. "Mike Howard and I do not see eye to eye on many things," he said. "When we got together, it was not in order to develop any power play, but because we both see something that is of tremendous importance to Denver and we happen to agree on this." One thing the two did agree on was

the need to form the support structure needed to get their plan off the ground. On the evening of October 11, 1979, Seawell and Howard met with Governor Richard Lamm to discuss the west bank plan. It has also been reported that they asked Lamm to put political pressure on Punke. The Auraria Board members are appointed by the governor and Punke's term expires in May 1980. Both Seawell and Lamm have denied those reports, but Lamm did ask Kerschner, executive director of the Colorado Commission on Higher Education, to look into the matter. In the course of Kerschner's investigation, word got back to Punke that Seawell and Howard were putting on the heat. He understandably got nervous. At this point, the Aurarians began to gear up for their own offensive. Punke supporters began a small letter writing campaign to the Governor. Kerschner reported back to the Governor that this was an internal Denver squabble and gave his support for Punke. While all this was going on, Harold Cook, manager of public works for the City and County of Denver, ordered a con't. on page 4

Goals met, Steiner quits by Joan Conrow

Mary Jane Steiner, director of the Auraria Child Care Center, has submitted her resignation effective February 1, 1980.

The tension continued throughout the month of November 1979. Auraria officials began looking for support and decided a committee would best consolidate their power. The St. Elizabeth's Area Advisory Committee was selected as the vehicle for their efforts. The St. Elizabeth's Committee was involved in the negotiations that led to the ChafeeThomas compromise and had been reactivated for consultation on the $151,900 state-funded landscaping project. Members of that committee included two students, Guadalupe Herrera and Frank Mullen. Mullen was editor of the METROPOLITAN at the time he served on the committee. Father John Ullrich, director of the St. Francis Interfaith Center, was chairman of the committee. At a meeting of the committee in late November, members were given a briefing on the relocation efforts and the pressure that was being generated. They were asked to not discuss the subject outside of committee meetings. Elected student leaders were never informed of die situation during the controversy. Although Mullen was editor of the student newspaper, the· request for silence prevented him from informing the 23,000 students at Auraria of the trouble brewing on their eastern border. Auraria officials deny that this was intentional. On November 28, 1979, the main protagonists met face-to-face for the first time. At a University Club luncheon

The high rising cost of health care: you see TV newsbriefs and specials about it, read about it in the newspaper, and experience it yourself as the bills arrive in the mail. The causes are multiple, the solutions complex and difficult. One factor in this complicated issue is health insurance. Although some experts implicate characteristics of health insurance as one demon driving up consumer costs, health insurance remains protection against the financial devas.tation of unpredictable illness or accident. All full-time (10 hours or more) Metropolitan State College students, are covered each semester by a health insurance plan unless they have waived the insurance because of other coverage. Details of this coverage are available in a brochure which is distributed at the MSC Student Health Service, or by calling 6292525. You may be paying out of your own pocket for bills your health insurance covers. Filing an insurance claim can be a complicated procedure. Questions may arise: What is my policy number? Am I covered over semester breaks? Will I be covered on my vacation out of the country? Are office visits covered? Will my vasectomy be covered? Answers to all of these questions, and additional help in completing the claim form, may be obtained at the Student Health Service. Each full-time student pays $16.-75 health insurance cost out of student service fees paid with tuition. This money then goes to the insurance company, Southland Life of Dallas, Texas. Coverage begins the first day of classes. Claims, however, are processed directly through the Student Health Service, which acts as a liaison for the student. QUESTION: If I'm not a full-time Metropoijtan State College student, can I purchase the insurance coverage? ANSWER: Any MSC student carrying 6-

•

body .

9 credit hours may purchase the insurance. It must be done during the first 3 weeks of each semester at the Business Office. Deadline for this spring semester is February 8, 1980. QUESTION: May I sign up my child for health insurance? ANSWER: Any MSC student who carries 6 or more credit hours and has the insurance coverage may sign up for optional dependent coverage for children and/or a spouse. Again, this must be done during the first 3 weeks of each semester.

hosted by Michael Howard, Dean Punke and other representatives of the west bank sat down to openly discuss the issue with Seawell, his supporters, and members of the city planning department. What might.have been a peace parley developed into a heated meeting ending with two widely different versions of what exactly happened and what was agreed on. According to Seawell, "Punke and his associates weren't even interested in considering the plan, which I think basically benefits Auraria and the campus. We started off on the premise that Punke and his associates understood that we wanted to do nothing that would have an adverse effect on Auraria. The plan basically would be to put northbound Speer Boulevard on the other side of Cherry Creek ...and to depress both north and southbound Speer, so that looking from the Science Building, there would be one grass area straight down to Cherry Creek. It would not only visually improve it, it would· give the students a safe crossing over Speer Boulevard because that would be down below. Now in every way this would benefit Auraria.'' · After pointing out what he considered to be the benefits of his plan to Punke, including increased contact between Auraria students and the DCPA, Seawell said Punke responded by stating that those things were an affair of the ~ colleges and "all we (the Auraria Board) LI care about is real estate." .S Punke denies that he made the 0 comment and points out that if the Cu"tnt plans call for Speer realignment at Blake Street.

Editorial Student government boring but·••• by Lou Chapman

Well, yes it is a vicious circle. It seems no one except the elected officials cares what goes on in student government, but it seems no one knows what goes on there, either. And yes, it seems no one wants to read borinJ!; news stories about student government, but then again, no one gets the chance to read regularly about Auraria

student governments. None the less, student governments exist (at two Auraria schools anyway) and for better or worse, in the limelight or in obscurity, they theoretically carry rather heavy hammers in ironing out what happens to a lot of your money .. .an awful lot of your money (the MSC student fees budget this year was over $140,000). And, oh yes, there are those other decisions, somewhat non-economic, affecting curriculum, ad-

Make us an offer, Don by Sal Ruibal

The saddest part of the current Speer Boulevard relocation debacle is that the largest constituency affected by the proposed plan was not consulted by either warring faction. Don Seawell and Michael Howard, the Denver journalistic powers-that-be, put the touch on everyone from the governor to the Archbishop of Denver for support. When was the last time you saw the governor and the Archbishop trying to cross Speer with an armload of books? The Auraria Board did little better. The two students appointed to their "blue-ribbon" committee were no longer students three weeks after the relocation possibility was raised. No elected student government leaders were briefed on the problem. They had to read newspaper accounts of the biggest story to hit Auraria since the merger issue reared its ugly head. Pretty shabby treatment for the people who pay the bills around here. Perhaps the students should engage in a little

bargaining here. Everybody says their side is what's best for the students. Our support may prove crucial if push comes to shove. We don't automatically have to support Auraria because we go to school on their property. Maybe Don Seawell can offer us something more than Auraria can? Make us an offer we can't refuse, Don. Of course, this is facetious. No one in their right mind wants ten lanes of traffic roaring through the east end of campus, depressed or not. The point is, Auraria, that we were left out and taken for granted. We weren't even allowed to make up our own minds and there is no excuse for that. The students on this campus are not your Boulder mixture of prep school fashion plate air-heads. We are older, often older than many of the people telling us what is good or not good for us. We are experienced at more than quaffing beer and attending frat parties. We are a part of this community and we deserve to take part in the decisions that affect us. Take heed, Donald Seawell. Look out, Auraria Board. Next time, we might not be so nice.

ministration, and the physical layout and appointments of Auraria. Well, at least these elected officials are allowed to have a say in all of that. Who knows, eh? MSC has a Student Affairs Committee and a Curriculum Committee. UCD has an Executive Council. Both schools participate in the Interclub Council, the Student Services Policy Council, and the Student Advisory Committee. The last two have direct input to the Auraria board of directors, which decides or helps others decide about such things as mergers of schools, • bus shelters, parking facilities and costs, and where to put Speer Boulevard. Meetings of all these groups occur regularly and are open to the public. Now, we realize these meetings are a great big yawn, and it requires sitting through a few of these meetings before one understands the processes of decision making and the personalities involved. We also realize The Metropolitan has an obligation, perhaps one we have shirked. These meetings are as boring for us as they are for you. (Try to write an interesting, hot story about how the Committee to Represent the Committee to the Council voted to hold off voting until the next meeting. It's rough all over, you know?) But here's the point: We have an obligation as a college newspaper to report what is happening in student government and we hope some students will feel an obligation to react to that rep6rting, no matter how trivial it seems to be. Sit in on a meeting, ask a question, write a letter. We will try to keep you informed of decisions made in student government and we hope this helps to at least diminish the size of that vicious circle mentioned a few paragraphs ago.

Chainnan vows SAC to remain independent Dear Editor, The S.A.C. in the past two months has been disrupted by two factions that have been in total conflict. Some conflict is necessary in order to progress, but not to the point of such tension that there is a continuous stalemate and no work accomplished. I've remained neutral during the past elections. I'm contented now that it was the student's desire when electing the three new SAC members to dissolve· the previous conflict and to start working on the budget in the student's interest. I can assure you that the SAC will remain independent of the executive branch, but hopefully in harmony. Abe Locker SAC Chairman

Student furiQus over Auraria parking fiasco Dear Editor: I am writing in regards to the parking for the Auraria Campus students. On several occasions I have put my money in the ticket machine, and it was out of passes. Normally it works out all right because I can put an old pass on my dashboard and hope that I don't get a parking ticket. · In this one instance however, I decided to leave a note for the Meter Maid. The note read like this: "To whom it may concern; I put my money in the machine and there were no more passes left. I would appreciate it if you would not give me a ticket. Thanks, D. Kment." Well as you can guess when I got out to my car there was

a $3 parking ticket waiting for me on my windshield wiper blade. I WAS FURIOUS! l l l l ! ! I paid the ticket in protest. That was the most I have ever had to pay to park my car anywhere. It seems that something can be done about situations like this one. My suggestion is to either check the parking pass machine more frequently; or get parking lot attendants for the lots not already supplied with them. Thank you, Debbie Kment

I am 23, an August 1979 graduate of East Carolina University, and currently living in Georgia. Before beginning a serious career, it is of the utmost personal importance that I take a long vacation/ exploration around the United States. I will be camping, canoeing, and backpacking as I go. If you can offer advice on "where to gd, what to do" in your area it would be a ~ great help. I am on a very flexible, almost nonexistant, schedule and would like to visit (not freeload) with others of similar interests for a few hours · or days. Can you befriend a Southern man?

ttews Haak leaves after 'good long stay' by S. Peter Duray-Bito ''The opportunity came at just the right time," Dr. Harold H. Haak, chancellor of the University of Colorado at Denver, said about his new position as President of California State University at Fresno. "It'll be a new career experience at a campus I love and in a community in which I very much like to live." · Haak plans to be in Fresno by Feb. 1 to head the 14,000 student campus where he was Academic Vice President from 1971 to 1973. Feeling his seven vears as head of UCD was a "good long stay," Haak said there is a need for a change of leadership because it's "healthy." "You need people with new ideas," Haak said. "I feel the Auraria issue has been played out and things are stabilizing. I've done the best I could for a long period of time and now it's time for someone new." Looking back on his tenure at UCD, Haak said he feels "really good." He said being the first chancellor of an institution brought an ''influence no one else will ever have. There's a tremendous challenge to evolve an institution in one of America's major metropolitan areas," Haak said. Haak cited a "faulty assumption everyone made" concerning the size of Auraria. Concerning the merger of MSC and UCD, he has felt people moving toward a modification of the status quo.

"Administratively, it's clear the people of MSC don't want to be a part of UCD and those of us at UCD don't want to be out of UCD," Haak said. "But as a result of this process, I feel the communication between the_ campuses and various parties have improved.'' Haak also said the "academic discussion" brought people out. "We no longer wonder where the state legislature or the Colorado Commission on Higher Education stand on a particular issue. They might not be anywhere, but at least we know that, too." Nevertheless, Haak sees a multitude of challenges ahead for his successor. "Let me assure you, it's challenging g enough just to keep building consensus ~ and agreement," he laughed. But Haak 115 said the discussion of UCD's relationship o to MSC has put some of the internal ~ problems of UCD on hold. ~ "I think we now know our relation- w ship to Metro is being changed in a · meaningful way in the Arts and Sciences," Haak said. "I would like to see us never been able to get all the clearances to focus more on the development of the buy it. "This was to be part of phase four College of Business in cooperation with of Auraria-refurbishing these facilities the Boulder campus." Another issue Haak mentioned is the and it's never been done," be said. From a more distant perspective, physical make-up of UCD.

"I think everyone involved in Auraria should realize this is a unique positon we're privileged to have," he emphasized. "There aren't many places that have a bright future that Denver bas. When you look at the students and faculty-the 'toilers in the fields'-it's easy to get discouraged because the 1970s haven't been easy times to develop a campus. Then you have to ask yourself: how many places do you have the privilege of building a campus? "In a sense, I'm a Berkian conservative in that I believe you have wisdom without reflection through the generations," Haak continued. "Institutions do evolve out. They don't always do it in nice, neat ways or in the most rational manner. It could be eventually that UCD and Metro will merge and there will be an Auraria State University, but that's an option people will have to decide on in the future because they see it best for the future of higher education in Denver." Haak also expressed a "tremendous admiration" for the faculty and students of all three institutions. "It's how you can have disagreements with people that are strongly felt and when you walk away saying, hey, we have our differences but there's a tremendous committment here to the urban student."

feature An Auraria trilogy Editor's note: METROPOLITAN reporter Joan Conrow investigated these three articles during the previous school semester. Two are closely related: a family that lived where the Auraria Higher Education Center now is, and businessmen who faced the same plight. The third is tangential and almost ironic: renting in Denver and how to handle it maybe.

Businessmen bear brunt of relocation In addition to the families who were sent searching for new homes, the construction of the Auraria Higher Education Center forced 237 business to relocate. Moving a business is always more costly and complex than moving a family; customers can be lost, overhead in the form of rent or mortgage payments can increase, and a new location is not always a better location. Of the 237 businesses relocated from the Auraria Urban Renewal Project, 51 are no longer operating. Although five went out of business after the move, the other 46 chose to receive cash settlements in lieu of relocation expenses. Denver Urban Renewal Authority compensated the businesses for the land

they owned and provided the full cost of relocation, but some of the ousted businessmen said they did not get a fair deal. "I think the whole thing stunk," said Moses Katz who started Auraria Businessmen Against Confiscation. "It (the relocation) practically put me out of business and made me an old man. I had fourteen pieces of property in Auraria and they (DURA) confiscated it all.'' ABAC voiced their complaints to the Colorado Supreme Court in a suit against DURA in 1973. The suit dealt with whether the state's eminent domain law discriminated against businessmen by treating them differently than homeowners and tenants . The businessmen also wanted compensation for the loss of goodwill and profits. The Supreme Court ruled 6-0 that businessmen whose properties were condemned for urban rene~al projects need not be compensated for loss of goodwill and profits, which left ABAC without legal grounds to resist the condemnation proceedings. "The big gripe we (some members of ABAC) had was we had a building with low overhead and small payments," said Ivan Goldstein of Ad Display Co. "It's been a hard adjustment, because when we (Ad Display Co.) had to move our overhead costs rose about ten times. We just couldn't absorb this rise." · Goldstein said that although he got "an equitable deal" on the confiscated property, DURA did not consider the rise of their business costs when providing relocation monies. ''When the cost of doing business goes up about ten times and there's no increase in the amount of business you're doing you just can't make a profit," Goldstein said. "It's getting a little better now, but there were about four years where it was a tremendous strain on us. We've never been able to recover; the business just didn't warrant the move.'' Katz, who owns Chemical Sales Co. sai~ ~e did not get a fair payment for any of his property or enough time to relocate. "It (Chemical Sales Co.) will never catch up," Katz said. "I'm 88 years old; I don't have much time left to recover.'' Katz is bitter about the loss of his property, which had been in his family since 1905. He said DURA did not "give a damn" about him or his business; they just wanted him out. "They're (DURA) a bunch of idiots from Cameron (DURA's Executive

Director) all the way down " Katz said. "They're living off the p~blic trough· they've never made an honest buck i~ their lives." Although petitions and suits were filed against DURA protesting property acquisition methods and claiming DURA acted improperly in negotiating land deals, no court decision was ever made against the Renewal Authority. "We (some members of ABAC) never had any gripes about the way it (property acquisition) was handled or the way we were moved out," Goldstein said. "The big gripe was about the rise in our overhead when we moved. We made a compromise deal (with DURA) but it's really been a rough period."

The law states that unless specified differently in the lease, the landlord is required to return the security deposit -;within 30 days. If part or all of the deposit is being withheld, the landlord must specify the reason in writing. If the tenant does not receive the letter or the deposit, he must send a "seven-day letter,'' which states he is making a claim on the deposit. If the landlord still does not respond, the tenant may take him to court. . "If the withholding of the deposit is not justified, the tenant can go to court and get treble damages and attorney

JACK NICHOLSON, JOHN BELUSHI Wed., Mar. 12at12:15, 2:15, 4:15, 7 & 9 p.m. Director Jack Nicholson has assembled a first-rate cast and crew (Including Oscar-winning cinematographer Nestor Almendros) and gives us In "Goin' South" a rambunctiously off-center film that looks as If It · were as much fun to make as It Is to watch. Henry Moon (Nicholson) ls saved from the noose by stubbornly virginal Julia Tate (Mary Steenburgen) who marries the scruffy varmint to work her long-shot gold mine and save her property from the encroaching railroad. The relationship is tenuous at first (she hangs dining room chairs on the wall; he's completely off the wall), but as surely as the desert blooms, so does their romance.

fees," Musselman said. . , Randy Baggio, a tenant nghts counselor for West Side Action Center, said another common problem is determining who is responsible for necessary repairs. "Repairs is where you have to use a little creativity," Baggio said. "There's really no way you can force them to do it, so you have to find a leverage point. A lot of times it involves calling the health department or fixing it yourself and deductthe amount from the rent." - But Baggio warned that withholding money from the rent by the tenant can be grounds for eviction. He said if a tenant is forced to do that he should get a copy of the receipt for the repairs and enclose it with the rent money and a note. "A lot of the calls I get are, 'The heater doesn't work,' or 'The furnace doesn't work,' and their kids are getting colds " Baggio said. "So, first we get the heat turned on and then deal with the impending eviction." Baggio said because many people are afraid to call their landlords or the health departmen~ he calls for them, ~rying .to "buy them time if they're gettmg evicted.'' , "Some of the saddest cases deal with the elderly or ADFC (Aid for Dependent Children) mothers with three or four kids " Baggio said. "Single parent families are the most discriminated against (in the rental market). We try to keep them in their apartments and deal with the landlords because it's so hard for them to find places.'' Baggio said corporations are the hardest landlords to deal with, but there are a lot of good landlords out there. "I started out as a tenants' rights advocate, but now I realize there's usually two sides to the story, ' ' Baggio said. Musselman agreed. He said if a tenant does not pay the rent, is noisy, or is damaging the property, the landlord will want to get them out. He said it was important for a tenant to remember a landlord has rights too. For a tenants' rights referral list seepage21.

The Martinez family, former residents of what is· now the Auraria campus, have cut through miles of red tape and experienced more than their fair share of shuffling in the bureaucratic deck. · It seems that any house they live in is either in disrepair or under attack, with some public agency to blame. The family was moved out of three houses in two years by two Denver agencies. They were involved in one court battle and numerous bearings and meetings, only to end up across the street from their original residence. "It was disgusting what we went through," said Mrs. Lucy Martinez in reference to her family's relocation. "I had a real hard time. It was real frustrating.'' .· The saga began when the Martinez' home at 1900 S. Tejon St. was condemned in 1972 by the Denver Department of Health and Hospitals. Although the area was designated for demolition by the Denver Urban Renewal Authority, the Martinezes could not get any relocation money because their house had been con.demned by a city rather than federal agency. The family was forced to move after receiving $7 ,500 for their home. The problems were only beginning, because the family relocated at 940 11th St., an area eyed by the Auraria Higher Education Center designers for the planned tri-school complex. The property on 11th St. was bought

by DURA for the Auraria Higher Education Center in 1972, which forced 39 home-owner· occupants, 70 individual tenants, 237 businesses and 15 tenant families to move. One of these families were the Martinezes. This time the Martinezes moved only one house away while waiting for their new residence to be completed. DURA gave the Martinezes a $4,000 grant to use as a down payment on the new 1910 S. Tejon St. home, because this time they had been uprooted by a federal agency. But, moving into their new $21,000 home did not solve the family's problems. "They didn't fix the house right," Lucy Martinez said. "We moved here before Thanksgiving (1973) and there was no heat, no utilities, bathroom or nothing. We had to get water from my niece's and use her bathroom. It .was real

bad.'' Martinez said she went to DURA to fmd out when the house would be completed and was told it "was her problem now.'' The builder finally finished the house a month later. · "He (the builder) didn't do a good job," Martinez said. "The plumbing in the bathtub leaks and we had to fix it ourselves. We gave him money for a screen door and he never brought it to us. We were cheated on that." Martinez said she contacted the builder with her complaints, but said the builder just ignored them, so they had given up and tried to take care of the problems themselves. "I wouldn't want nobody else to get the deal we did," Martinez said. "If what happened to me can help somebody else, I want people to know.''

Different approaches to rock production by S. Peter Duray-Bito IN CONCERT Emerson, Lake and Palmer Keith Emerson - keyboards; Greg Lake guitars and bass; Carl Palmer - drums and percussion. Godfrey Salmon conducting a sixty-piece orchestra. Atlantic SD 19255

***

The opening theme from "Peter Gunn," written by Henry Mancini, may be the only reason to get this record.

With it, rock's trio terrible prove once again they are brilliant arrangers of other people's music. The three manage to sound like thirty, with vast synthesizer effects, a thumping, digging bass line, and complex, tightly interwoven drums. After this stunning opening for their live Montreal date, the band goes into their usual plodding. Emerson's synthesizer riffs all too often plunge into self-parody and Lake seems to achieve orgasmic satisfaction at rattling his bass strings.

The album is horribly discontinuous in sound. The better takes are excellent: bass reaching down to the center of the earth, sharp drum transients, and clear, crisp vocals. Other cuts include the sixty piece orchestra and the mix favors that larger acoustic field. Consequently, the band is confined to center channel and the sonic nuances of the orchestra are swallowed by the arena-sized Olympic Stadium. In a word: indistinguishable. The tour was in 1977 and the orchestra was dropped after only a few

•

cities because of excessive costs. This album, therefore, is a flawed but interesting documentary of an ambitious concept that even rock's richest band couldn't handle. That's why bands like Pink Floyd are only playing in two U.S. cities. The age of the massive, multimedia concert tour is over.

DAMN THE TORPEDOS Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers Tom Petty - guitafs, vocals; Benmont Tench - keyboards; Mike Campbell guitars; Stan Lynch - drums; Ron Blair bass.

•

****

For someone who filed for bankruptcy a short while ago, Tom Petty has come out with an album that, if nothing else, will put him back on his feet fmancially. Already .five of the nine songs on Damn the Torpedos are garnishing considerable airplay and music industry leaders agree this is the Tom Petty album everyone has been waiting for. The album opens with the immediate "Refugee," having Petty's most accessable vocals and a forcefully arranged back-up for the Heartbreakers. Following this strong intro, the songs meander through varying degrees of strength-the more rhythmic ones being better. Occasionally, Petty's compositions fall into a sort of rambling mid70s Rolling Stones sensibility. "You Tell Me" is a harmonic jewel apparently being overlooked by the FM ·stations (what else is new?). Its haunting melody and melancholic love Lyrics epitomize Petty's basic musical style. There is an odd unity to this album: some songs ramble, some hit you directly, and not all of them sound completely finished. But the sketchiness of Petty's approach is probably the most appealing aspect of his efforts. His concert at the Rainbow Music Hall Thursday night is not to be missed because it is the looseness of-his style that could allow for great spontaneity during a live performance.

It was a heavy week, man, last week, before spring classes began: Tuesday night, performing at the Rainbow Music Hall; Thursday night at St, Cajetan's on campus; Friday nigh~ down in Albuquerque, New Mexico. .... Playing a lot of music, a lot of hot tunes between the two of them: the combined University of Colorado at Denver and Metropolitan State College (UCD/MSC) Salsa Jazz Ensemble and the combined Jazz Ensemble. Tuesday night's gig was part of the ~ Colorado Jazz Showcase sponsored by the Rainbow Music Hall and radio station KADX. The Salsa Ensemble kicked off the whole thing. Thursday, on campus, the two groups filled St. Cajetan's(at least 400 of those uncomfortable orange and red ,_ plastic and folding metal chairs). First the Jazz Ensemble did three cuts, then the Salsa Ensemble knocked out two (one written by their pianist). Then the second half of the show was with Clare Fisher. Clare who? iust a sort of pudgy fellow, short grey hair, and wearing a

short-sleeved golfing shirt and blue slacks and sipping an apple juice (or tangerine juice) from a bottle backstage... not the looks of a minor legend. But probably the epitome of the "musician's musician." For someone who isn't known to the_public, Fisher seems to be admired by every jazz musician in the business. (And he's recording on a German label, man. Salsa-Latin jazz on a

FRENCH POSTCARDS. Starring Miles Chapin, Blanche Baker and David Marshall Grant. Directed by Williard Huyck. At The Flick. During the early part of this century, the stuffy Victorian blanket over Western life was occasionally lifted to reveal the erotic indulgences of Parisian night life. For most people, the only exposure to those "dens of inequity" were peculiar postcards of large ladies in sharp focus with hardly a feather in their hands or a shawl covering their hips. These "postcards'' were eyestoppers then and it follows that a film called French Post'cards should be an erotic foreign steamer. You can leave your glasses on for this one. French Postcards is the story of a French school for American high school students. Needless to say, the storyline revolves around what a group of students do outside of studying the three Estates. The best part is th at their "learning experiences" are more than mere conjecture; writer and director William Huyck went to just such a school in the 60s. Huyck's qualifications for this film aren't confined to that experience alone. Together with his screenwriter and wife Gloria Katz, Huyck wrote the screenplay

for the enormously successful American Graffiti. And in many ways, French Postcards follows in that tradition. Filmed entirely on locaton in France, the story follows Joel (Miles Chapin), Alex (David Marshall Grant) and Laura (Blanche Baker) through their junior year. Joel suffers culture withdrawal, spending his time studying and watching Star Trek re-runs in French (que c'est que ca, Monsieur Spock?). He finally emerges from his cocoon by meeting Toni (Valerie Quannessen) and their relationship staggers through mild turmoil until Joel decides to take her back with him to the States. Alex and Laura, meanwhile, are both lost souls who eventually find each other-but not before some wild and glorious escapades. Alex hails from Ohio and fancies himself a songwriter. He tries to prove it when he falls for the school's director, the lovely Mme. Tessier (MarieFrance Pisier). She rejects his Barry Manilowish song and admonishes him to return to his studies. But after a to-do with her husband, she picks up Alex takes a leave of absence: a short jaunt to Spain. Laura is on a cultural rampage. Her boyfriend was to join her in France, but when he couldn't make it, she takes it upon herself to do enough sight-seeing for the both of them. Determined to see a medieval festival, she befriends an

Program educates abusive parents·

by Karen Breslin

The Metropolitan State College (MSC) Center for Parenting Education has received a grant from the Colorado Commission on Higher Education to establish classes for abusive parents. Although the Center provides in-· formation on parenting education classes throughout Denver, a specific class for abusive parents grew out of a needs assessment conducted by the Center. Janice Bohan, director of the center, knows of no other class in the city developed solely for educating abusive parents. Working in conjunction with Parents Anonymous, a support group for child abusers, the Center provides free, ·convenient classes aimed entirely at educating abusive parents. Parenting, Bohan said, is learned behavior. Most adults were raised ~ adequately, dealt with rationally, and £ provided a model to follow, Bohan says. iii "Abusive parents," Bohan points r.n out, ''are abused children in larger bodies." The Center attempts to prese11t an alternative way to abusive parents. "The most important role-raising children-is one many adults get into without preparation," Bohan said. The MSC parenting classes, she said, are educational, conveying information. They are not therapeutic or supportive, like Parents Anonymous. None of the

nearly sixty persons enrolled rn the classes attend MSC; most of the parents are Parents Anonym?us referrals ..

Parentmg education, by not bemg Judgmental, a~tempts to ease some of that d1st~.st. . People who work m the field of abuse have gradually gotten away from

the attitude that the parents are terrible monsters," Bohan said. ''Instead, most are well-intentioned people who care for their kids. It's a matter of not knowing another way.'' The Center's classes have served between 30-40 families, according to Bohan. Enrollment is limited to 20 persons per class, three classes per semester. The classes are taught by a man and a woman to give both the mother and father someone to identify with.

The Parenting Education Center provides free care for children of parents attending the classes. Classes are held in the evenings to make them more con> venient, and to attract fathers to the classes. Bohan said she has received good feedback on the classes, but said it is impossible to know this early if they will have any long-term effect. Funding for the classes, lasting through this semester, came from -the CCHE and MSC. The CCHE allocated $5,000 to the program under Tiile I. Title I was designed to sponsor projects between institutions of higher education and community groups, Bohan said. The Center for Parenting Education exists because of the efforts of various ~ college departments. Bohan, an MSC psychology professor received release time to take on the duties of director. The education department contributed office space. Student volunteers provide the free child care. The Center for Community Services helped with writing the ... grant request. This cooperation, and the interaction with the community, Bohan said, are a credit to MSC. "I can't imagine this happening at a traditional university." The Center for Parenting Education was established in February 1978, and lists over 120 agencies that have parenting education programs. It also provides a list of speakers and instructors on the subject.

Creek Journal on January 10 and January 17 opened the attack on the Seawell scheme. In the latest issue, editor Ron Wolf traced the feud back to the Bonfils sisters. Seawell was an attorney for Helen Bonfils in a protracted legal battle for control of the Denver Post against her sister May. Helen Bonfils was a major contributor to the DCPA and after her death, the Bonfils Foundation was

Akers said "it takes men cumstances, to put it mildly, it seemed to of vision to promote a community. Men be dirty pool.. .it seems a rather foolish of vision, of course, are those who will thing on the face of it.'' In the strange scramble for support that followed the luncheon, Father John Ullrich of the St. Elizabeth's Area Advisory Committee asked for assistance from Archbishop James V. Casey, head of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Denver. The Archbishop then callee the Mayor for information on the plan. At that time, in early December, the Mayor told the Archbishop that he was in favor of the scaled-down plan for merely fixing the bridge at Blake Street. Seawell caught wind of this and sent two emissaries to see the Archbishop.

"Then what happens? A barrage of letters and phone calls from people on the west bank to the mayor. Under the circumstances it seemed a rather foolish thing on the face of it. "

'•

-r-

When this proved unsuccessful in gaining the Archbishop's support, Seawell and Howard invited the Archbishop to view a model of their proposed plan at the DCp A. Casey said he left the meeting ''confused." In early January., a directive from the Mayor's office to the planning department set a 90 day deadline for the formulation of a single plan for the area. Despite Seawell's claims of highpowered support, the last month has seen a growing displeasure witb his maneuverings and some serious doubts about the funding of his plan. Two lengthy articles in the Straight

continue to have a taste for chateaubriand... as long as they can get the hamburger crowd to pay for it." No matter what the writers and commentators may say about the situation, the last word on anything in Denver comes from Mayor Wilham McNichols. A possible source of funding for the relocation plan is the $13 million the city will receive for properties sold under the Denver Urban Renewal Authority. The money corning in equals projected costs for relocation. McNichols has bad news for Seawell if the Post publisher was counting on those funds: "If there is any indication that we can recommend using any money from DURA for that thing, it isn't going to come from me. I've already had all the agencies in the city give us an estimate on the prioritized use of the funds that will come to us and that certainly isn't one of them."

No matter what the writers and commentators may say about the situation, the last word on anything in Denver comes from Mayor William McNichols. Seawell faces an uphill battle for both funding and community approval for the west bank relocation, but adversity is no stranger to the man who transformed a sketch on a napkin into the incredible Denver Center for the Performing Arts. As Rep. Hudson put it, "What Donald Seawell wants, he almost always gets."
