So who's minding the store? by Lou Chapman

Very few guidelines exist for vendors who sell on the second I' floor of the Auraria Student Center and authorities have no formal procedure for dealing with complaints or liabilities. One woman ·has said she retur.,_ ned a chipped necklace to one vendor, only to have the same necklace given back to her in ''exchange.'' Last week, another woman said she was verbally abused when she requested an exchange from a ..... vendor.

According to Roger Braun, director of the Student Center, sales are allowed in the Center so clubs and academic departments can advertise and sell tickets to events and promote themselves, to provide a sales outlet for organizations and fund-raising while providing a service to the students, and to provide an outlet for people who have wares to sell. Braun, however, never deals with the vendor when sales arrangements and commission deals are being made . The organization sponsoring the ven-

''Of course, anything illegal, we would not allow,'' Braun said. ''Anything illegal we know about, let's put it that way.'' Braun said the Student Center has never received a formal complaint of bad business in the Student Center. He said he has had "off the cuff" complaints, however, which were mostly about persons distributing what he termed "propaganda." , • contiQued on page 12

~Hews Rape.••what if it's you? by Rosanne Simborski

-.

Like a festering sore that goes untreated, rape continues to infect communities because victims fail to report the crime. Rape victims are reluctant to report the assault because it is an ugly, humiliating experience. But reluctance to report rape doesn't make it go away. Detective William Ridel of the Denver Police Sexual Offense Unit said rape is the toughest crime to investigate, solve, and get convictions on. He sa.id a victim's cooperation is of paramount importance. Ridel s'aid that despite common misconceptions the only pressure a vie~ gets from the police is to come forth with all helpful details. "We're very concerned with the victim's physical and mental well being," Ridel said. Rape, as with any crim~, can~ot be solved without evidence. Ridel said the best sources of evidence are the victim's statement, any medical evidence, ~d t~~ "outcry witness." The "outcry witness is the first person to hear a victim's sto~, whether it is a friend, husband, or pohce officer. In the City· and County of Denver, medical evidence is compiled through a Sexual Assault Kit administered by Denver General Hospital. Jan Mcilwaine, coordinator of the Sexual Assault Program at Denver General said a "tight chain of custody" is maintained on the Kit, so that evidence will hold up in court. The Kit, prepared

at the Denver Police crime lab, is administered by a doctor at Denver General then returned to the crime lab. The Sexual Assault Kit contains sterile swabs, glass tubes, a comb, and envelopes. Tests performed provide medical evidence of blood types, sperm, and pubic hair. "The Kit helps narrow down the population of suspects," Mcilwaine said. She said it is vital that victims get to a hospital as soon as possible after the incident: ''The evidence is fragile and easily lost and the quicker they can come in, the 'better the chances of getting good samples." Ridel and Mcilwaine both said the Kit aids in corroborating details of the assault. Medical evidence can also be compiled at other area hospitals. Mcilwaine suggests a victim call the police i~ t.he county the crime occurred. The v1cttm will be taken to the designated hospital for that county. The Sexual Assault Program at Denver General also offers counseling for the victim who upon arrival at the hospital is immediately placed in a private area with a social worker. The social worker stays with the victim during the entire time at the hospital. "We want to make it as easy as possible," Mcllwaine said. "I really believe that they can get such good treatment here in terms of medical treatment continued on page 7

These new courses and the enrollment problem have, however, created faculty fears that they will be asked to teach additional courses without additional money, that the new classes will not be academically sound, that the classes will draw enrollment away from fall and spring semesters next year. Faculty Senate President Jerry Fenger called a faculty senate meeting Tuesday, Feb. 26, to explain the MSC enrollment problem, and the efforts to make-up the deficit. "We wanted to get everything out as clearly as we could,'' Fenger said. "Always in a situation like this there are rumors, and when we don't know, we fear." · MSC President Donald Macintyre and Michael Howe, vice president of academic affairs, addressed the group and attempted to allay fears. Again, Macintyre stressed there would be no pressure for a faculty member to volun-

teer time, but he said volunteers are h SC l h h" needed and t e M facu ty as a istory of pulling together and offering its time during a crisis. Howe assured the audience that the newly-created courses would be accepted on basis of academic merit . ~ ''There was some concern,'' Fenger said in a later interview, "that if we create courses merely to create enrollment tb,at we would be getting ourselves in trouble." Macintyre and Howe stressed the · courses would be academically defen- "" sible. Fenger isn't sure how many faculty members will respond to the situation by teaching additional courses, especially since some are concerned it might set a precedent of working for free. ~ But, he added, "Just making the effort will show how convinced we are that we have a great school here."

positions is determined by the total of full-time enrollments (FTEs). MSC currently is alloted 461.5 faculty positions and will receive 446.3 under the reduction. . If a school falls short of its projected ceiling, the school must pay back the funding difference to the state. If they exceed the number of FTEs the

legislature anticipates will enroll, a supplemental appropriation would make up the shortfall. "I don't think this is any problem," an MSC administrator said this week. • "They'll fund us at the level we produce.'' MSC fell short by 450 FTEs this year, and must make up those deficits by June or be forceq to return $320,000 to the state. Administrators feel it will be easier \ to reach the lowered goal next year and then seek supplemental funds than miss a higher figure and again reimburse the state. The JBC reduction means fifteen thousand credit hours less than this year must be achieved next year, and that • makes seemingly bad news a blessing in disguise for MSC.

i'"'l8SS pis more tor Metro budget

by Sal Ruibal The legislative Joint Budget Committee had good news and bad news for MSC last week. · The bad news is that the JBC recommended cutting MSC's enrollment ceiling by 500 full-time student positions, resulting in a corresponding loss of fifteen resident instruction slots.

The good news is that MSC will not really lose anything in the deal and actually stands· a chance of improving its financial position. The JBC wants to reduce the current MSC ceiling of 9,700 to 9,200 students. The legislature credits a school with one full-time student for every 30 credit hours of enrollment. The number of faculty

Workshop helps relieve test-taking tensions p

by Joan Conrow

r

She was sure she knew her stuff. She had studied and understood the material. But when she sat down to take a test, she would "just be freaked out." Now when she takes a test, she is more relaxed, more comfortable, and able to get the grades she needs. What this student did between the fear and the relaxation was participate in ~ the Test Anxiety Workshop, a new student service offered through MSC Counseling Services. 'It's really changed my approach to tests," said the pre-med student, who asked not to be identified. "I feel much more comfortable taking exams than ever before." ...The two-hour weekly workshop was developed by John Davis, associate professor of psychology, and Phil Sutton coordinator of Counseling Services. ' "Talk to any teacher and they will tell you there are students who know their ~ stuff," Davis said, "but when it comes to tests, their performance just doesn't show it." Sutton said almost everyone has test anxiety, but some people are almost debilitated by anxiety when taking any kind of test. He said classes such as chemistry and math have a reputation for being difficult and often stimulate anxiety, as do certain generalized attitudes. "People develop a lot of habits that 0

The fi.rst s!ep is .teaching the person to recogruze his anxiety and where it comes from D~vis said th~ group leader presents some ideas and mfonnation, but each person needs to apply the material to his own individual problem and practice those techniques at home. Each week a relaxation exercise is taug~t that involves the tensing, then relaxmg, of muscle groups. This teaches the person the physiological method of controlling the tension that often accompanies anxiety, Davis said . He added the main focus of the workshop is simply learning to control anxieties. Tom Mulqueen agreed: "This workshop doesn't eliminate ~eties. It helps us to apply it, use-that aDXJety productively for the test." Sutton said he has not gotten any feedback from the first six-week provement in her grades, not only workshop that ended last week. because she has better study habits, but "In the past what we've found is because of a more positive attitude. that people do improve their test anxiety Tom Mulqueen said he would but they've also learned some generai recommend the test anxiety workshop to skills they can apply to other aspects of other students like himself-returning to their lives," he said. college after years in the job market"I learned how to really get down to because the workshop environment is studying," said Carolyn, who asked that warm and supportive. her last name not be used.

To the editor: In response to the letter (Sandy Danaan and Larry Plume) appearing in the March 5, 1980 issue of THE

Big deal. We should never have been there. Now our state legislature manages to pass a bill giving themselves a 25 percent pay raise, but can't manage to pass an anti-pollution bill. They get a 25 percent raise, although their laziness or ineptitude or both may cost us 300 million dollars! Talk about a crime against the state! Crime against the people! But where are the voices of the conscientious students? Where is the concern? I guess that it's just not fashionable. R. Bofenkamp To the editor: I protest the showing of Monty Python's The Life of Brian the week of March third as part of the film series at the Student Center on the Auraria campus. This film, a parody of the life of Jesus Christ, ridicules the Son of God, our savior. As a follower of Jesus lam deeply grieved when he is mocked. Such a film is especially offensive during Lent, when Christians remember Jesus's suffering for us. The Life of Brian cannot be excused because it is "funny." Mockery is a powerful weapon. I hope the sponsors of the campus films will counter this influence I feel is evil by showing The Life of Jesus, a film that presents an accurate Biblical account of Jesus' life. Religious freedom includes respect for religiou·s beliefs. Shirley Spencer Dear Lou Chapman, Editor: Thank you for the copies of THE

Rape

Office has jobs; no takers by Donald Griego Rising tuition and inflation are constantly putting a strain on student _ finances, forcing many students to sacrifice study time and get a job to offset

expenses. Not only must students find jobs that pay the most for the least work time, they also must fmd jobs that are flexible enough to fit around class schedules. • Because of this, it might seem that a placement office at an urban school with 13,000 students-such as MSC-would be packed every day with students trying to find jobs. In room lOS of the Administration Building, home of the MSC Placement ~ office, this is not the case. As you walk into the orangecarpeted. office, bulletin boards jammed with job announcements for graduating seniors are immediately visible, the notices not being read. Walls covered with information ._ (from how to write a resume to information about area business) are gathering dust. In an adjacent room, another bulletin board is filled with part-time job notices that flutter back and forth-because of the heating vents, not '- because of students rifling through them. "Right now we have about SS parttime and 90 full-time jobs," said Rich Jesuroga, supervisor of part-time

continued from page 3

Jesuroga said one of the problems is that students come in to look for a job, and then leave without seeing a counselor. If the students don't see a counselor, they may leave without getting the most benefit from the office. Part-time placement is only one function of the office. It also helps graduating seniors find jobs. "What we basically do is offer, free of charge, for those students," said Sally Robinson acting director of placement, "to start a placement file with their resume and school record, and that can be kept on file throughout their career.'' Robinson said the office can also mail copies of the material in a student's file to any potential employer or make copies to take directly to an employer. She said the office has free material on job-seeking skills, interviewing, and books that can be checked out on similar subjects. The office publishes a newsletter twice a month on current job openings and it occasionally sends memos to departments in specific areas. However, it would like to keep jobs open to all students. On July 1, the placement office and UCO and CCD placement offices will merge. Robinson, whose original title was career coordinator, said the merger doesn't guarantee her a job past that date.

and support, that it will be helpful." Denver General and the Denver Police Department also get sexual assault referrals from York Street Center. Kathleen Smith, staff counselor at York Street, said volunteers help victims understand that any fearful feelings they have are normal and won't last forever. "Permission to feel kind of crazy is what's given first," Smith said. She also said volunteers stay with a victim during the medical examination at Denver General. Smith, Mcilwaine, and Ridel agree that rape can happen anywhere to anyone.

Mcilwaine said of the 418 cases reported to Denver General last year, victims were frO'm 2 to 88 years old. "You've got to watch yourself going out to get the mail, whether you live in a high-rent complex or a low-rent neighborhood," Ridel said. According to Smith, over half of the reported rapes are committed by people the victim knows, from a casual acquaintance to a best friend's brother. "A lot of people believe the myth that it happens only in a dark alley," Smith said. . She added that half of the reported rapes occur in the victim's home. "You've got to be aware of what's going on around you," Ridel said. "The sooner people realize that, the sooner the crime will stop happening."

Schedule set for MSC campaigns, elections Just like Reagan, Teddy, and Jimmy, it's election time at MSC. Students planning to run for student government positions this spring may now pick up election packets and begin their campaigns. To be placed on the ballot, each government hopeful must file with the ASMSC election commission an intent to run form. These forms, and all other election materials and information, are available in room 340 of the Student Center. Campaign expenses for any candidate may not exceed $100, including costs for materials used, printing costs, and newspaper ads. Candidates are advised to take advantage of opportunities to" speak to classes, hand out platform papers -to students on and off campus, B and begin campaigning early.

Complete rules and procedures are available from the election commission. A schedule of important dates for the campaigns and election is: •March 24: Intent to run forms due in ASMSC offices. •March 25: Candidates meeting, 3:30 p.m., Room 340 Auraria Student Center. •April 14: Elections begin at 8:30 a.m. •April 18: Elections end at 5 p.m. •April 22: Unofficial results and contestations of campaigns, elections, or results. •April 24: Campaign expense forms due in ASMSC election commission offices. •April 28: Official results at 5 p.m.

placement, "and we only get about three students a day.'' Jesuroga has worked.in the offices part-time placement section since last fall and said the office bad to build up more traffic for jobs, not from the employers' standpoint, but to justify the existence of the placement office at all. As a job counselor last semester, he was able to see deficiencies in the program, so as supervisor, he can make improvements this semester. "We're moving into Dean Schenck's old office (MA 104)," he said, "that's going to help because the whole part-time operation will be in one area."

In recent interviews, students whose names were supplied by the office generally gave favorable responses about placement center services. "I actually have not got~en a job through them," said Clare Kennelly, a recent MSC graduate. "I think it's a good service because I'm in teacher education and I can have my records sent to any district." "I like the way they set up interviews," said Jeffrey Jeffers, another graduate. "I didn't get a job through them, but that's not because I didn't get job offers. I did, but it just happened that I got a job outside the office."

TAKE THE RIDE TO NOWHERE Ever since the authorities cracked down on over-thecounter sales of airplane glue, cheap thrills have been hard to come by in Denver. In the old days, a tube of Tester's could fly you to places Pan Am never heard of. Fifteen cents and a few thousand brain cells was a small price to pay for a vacation, even by 1960 standards. Fret not, dear reader, for there exists in our city a method of entertainment that will bring you thrills, chills, travel and adventure for just 25$, one-fourth of a deflated dollar...and at minimum loss of gray matter. Welcome aboard Regional Transportation District Bus Route Zero. That's right, zero, null, zip, nothing. An appropriate number for the bus tonownere. If you have the courage, post your .body on Broadway and grasp that quarter tightly in your sweaty palm. Here it comes... no chance to turn back! You climb into the familiar interior of what appears to be a typical RTD bus. But look around at the faces of your fellow travellers. The blank stares, eyes deliberately averted from contact...somethlng Is wrong here, terribly wrong, The bus veers into the downtown area You begin to feel secure among the milling throngs on the sidewalks. If anything goes wrong, they might hear your screams. Suddenly the driver takes the bus into a four-wheel drift, tires smoking and brakes squealing.

Within f Ive blocks are four establishments devoted to the working man's music. Three of them are within a minute's walking distance of each other, and the fourth is maybe a three or four minute trot away. Not only do you save gas by driving to one and then walking to the others, the exercise will do good for the beer belly. The first stop on your week· long adventure is the Su-Z-Q at 3901 Morrison Rd. On weekends, it opens early, at 11 am.; . one could almost spend the whole weeK tnere listening to the Country Four and drinking twofers from 4-6 p.m. After the Su·Z·Q and If you' re still light on your feet-this Is where the three minute trot

Hissing steam and gases play a bizarre counter-point to the muted animal screams emerging from giant, gray concrete slaughterhouses. Winos crouch beneath shattered wooden crates while a Lear jet whooshes overhead. Entire automobiles are crushed and swallowed by metal-eating beasts. Now we cross the Platte River (or is It the Styx?), mottled by the sudsy remnants of the suburban washday blues. ,Just as suddenly as we were thrust Into the pit, we emerge Into a quiet residential neighborhood north of the stockyards. This Is the land of the Slovenian Walking Dead. No one under the age of eighty

lives here, but then again, no one dies here, either. They spend their eternity clipping shrubs and sweeping floors as the pollution erodes their humble hovels. "Penance for some East European family curse/' says the driver in a voice not unlike the death rattle of a secondhand refrlgerator. A strange fog envelopes the bus as we cross a bridge over Interstate 25. We can see the tiny heads of the drivers, nod. ding up and down, mouthing the words to " Bad Girls." We see them, but they do not acknowledge us. Are we even here? Our trip terminates at the Northglenn Mall, a monument to the best that capitalism has to offer. But that's another story ... and another quarter.-S.R.

come in-the next stop Is Morrison Street at 4801 Morrison Rd. It also opens at 11 am. on weekends. Lost and Found Is playing In the ballroom at nlghl If you feel the need for big names in country music, well then just walk across the street to 4842 Morrison Rd., the Country Opry. You can listen to such groups as Dustry Drapes and Blackhawk. They open at 4

CHEAP ifiHRILLS Al These days, even movle1 going has become a matter of consumer awareness. The dollar movies cost a buck and a half and you pay an arm and a leg . to watch the latest releases In a cramped, sterile, concrete box within .a modern suburban shoppJng mail. But hope exists. With spring break posslbly Interrupting the usual day-to-day routine, the conscientious flick fan has a chance to take advantage of; some cinematic savings. The Gothic, Oriental, Crest, Federal, Fox Aurora, and Cinema 70 (spanning the city from east to west and north to south) are still a bargain. For $1 .50, each offers a double feature, one of which Is often a recent release. Unfortunately, matinees are only on weekends, although the $1.50 price is always applicable. The older theaters (the Gothic, Oriental, Crest, Mayan, and Federal) are fun because of their architecture, larger screens, and lowkey audiences.

~¥L An art show for the students by S. Peter Doray-Bito Well, they finally took my advice, folks. After I ranted and raved for nearly a year about the deplorable display conditions for Metro artists, someone has seen it fit to allow students to show their work in the Emmanuel Gallery. No longer must we get lost in the library or put up with the horrible lighting in the Interfaith Center. This show is displayed well, lit well and even had crackers and punch on opening night. Are we being taken seriously? Upon entering the gallery, the first piece that strikes the eye is Terry Ezman's timely The Draft: Ohio. A giant hand, crafted out of army-green steel pipe, points down to a platform with four U.S. Army helmets. The piece speaks of oppressive pressure and impending destruction, but is oddly comical in its overall physical stance. Just beyond Ezman's piece, Carlos A. Fresquez's masterful illusionist pieces are next in line. Fresquez combines brilliant, flashy colors with a fine illusionist technique to place him at the leading edge of MSC's artist community (or, at least of those accepted to this show). One caveat: Fresquez's two pieces are so similiar, wouldn't one piece have represented his work just as well? Next, facing left, is second-prize

winner Taxidermy. .. Mallard by Scott Baird. Inside a glass case is a dead mallard duck in beginning stages of rot. Out of the glass case, three brass tubes lead down to three multi-colored balloons. An air freshener is attached to the side. Fifty cents from me to anyone who pops a balloon. There are limits to fun, though. Marsha Wooley's painted tricycle with lawn mower blades in the back reaches too far into the land of gonzo. The concept clashes with the Mexican flavor of the etched blades and painted fenders and cloth seat. Is this a statement about what Chicano boys/men do? Ed Kosinski's Random October 15, 16, 17 1979 is a concept piece about random demography that neatly involves dozens of people and their residences. Kosinski also displayed his proposed Einstein wall graphic for the Science Building. Should more people take note of this idea, we might next see each other at a reception in front of a large red wall in the Science Building. Further along the wall are works of mixed quality. Patricia Gordon's Boxed Plant is barely of high school quality and may have been accepted just to represent charcoal pencil media. R.D . Peters' Time.. . Weighting also fails to rivet the eye with originality or execution. Two paintings by Jo Cole are entirely too much, especially considering the out-of-

the-tube colors and similiarity in design. Claudia Roulier's Close Encounters won first prize. It consists of two drawings of an indistinguishable figure and eerily reminds one of the monster Alien. It is well-made and strong, but again: why two pieces? Two sculptures by Marie Foster stand next to opposite walls in the gallery. To the right is Chastity Jock Strap, made of copper and silver, and to the left is Brass Tail, made of brass and mother-of-pearl. The two are superbly crafted and suggest opposite sexes. The best part is how the two seem to fit inside each other. By the stairs we have United Airlines Annual Report Cover that uses a good commercial graphic design but falls short on execution upon closer inspection. Next to it is a glass case with jewelry and in it is third place winner Resin Wishbone by Mike Acton. The piece could easily grace the shelves of Hyde Park with its elegant refinement and handsome design. Upstairs are the photographs, with perhaps the most extensive display of any student show to date. L.A. Singer's three unfocussed color shots show good control of color and idea, but the two fish shots are redundant. The large shopping cart by Jim Davis is fun and creative but need this have been a silver print? Chris M-Kaan's Laughing Dog evokes the whimsical humor of Elliot Erwit with the

camera looking down at a black and white mass that is the sorriest looking d~ I have ever seen. Glenda Grime's handcolored View From The Top is a classic compostion of shingled houses with subtle pastels that speak of another era. Jim Brenna's two black and white prints are strongly photo-journalistic with sharp detail aM introspective, pained expression. Clinton Funk rounds out the photos with a used car lot that has exceptional balance of natural and artificial light. . All in all, the show is well-balanced with its only flaw being overrepresentation by certain artists. Lookint back to the Senior Art Show of last December, one must conclude that artists Sheller, Heany, Perkins and Carroll must have graduated and are now showing their fine work in galleries around the city. If these people are still in school, however, I would much prefer to see thell work over first-year drawing students. I

Established artists answering new wave gives her a fresh, revitalized sound. There are hardly any three-part harmonies, a Ronstadt trademark, and more all-out screaming and wailing. Mad Love is a strong opener, followed by the first of three Elvis Costello covers, Party Girl. The Costello numbers are probably the best songs on the album, along with the classic Hurt So Bad of 1965. The familiar How Do I Make You is quick, immediate and strong. Overall, Ronstadt and the band blast through the numbers and the album is over before you know it. Add to that the brilliant recording and digital mastering by veteran Doug Sax making this album one of the finest commercial releases from a sonic point of view. A half star deducted because, well, MAD LOVE Linda Ronstadt is Linda Ronstadt, who Linda Ronstadt Ronstadt - vocals; Dan Dugmore, Marlc goes out with Jerry Brown, is too trendy 1>GQldenberg - guitars; Bob Glaub - bass; and unknowingly branded people like Russell KuJ!.kel - drums; Bill Payne - Costello as "hemorrhoid rock" just two years ago. keyboards.

What was that Confucious said about glass houses? Billy Joel wants to find out. In doing so, Joel looks at some poignant anomalities of American life. It's Still Rock and Roll To Me talks about thin ties, gaudy clothing and new wave as superficial elements of an old standard - the continuing rock and roll explosion. Close to the Borderline is a desperate excursion into chaos and the virtues of letting off steam. "I'd start a -revolution but I don't have time" neatly brings us back to square one with Joel hinting the chaos is a result of our own preoccupation with ourselves. Joel has a new sound here, as many

other artists of the '70s have taken on. Raunchy and rhythmic, yet Joel's stamp of lyricism is still strong and effective. All For Leyna should become a classic with its repeated phrase gradually turning in "awful Leyna." Sleeping with the Television On is a strong number about alienation in one's own bedroom. The final cut, Through the Long Night, uses a soft acoustic guitar and Beatles-type harmonies for a nice, quiet closing. It seems the punk and New Wave sound is finally filtering down to the masses as more established artists are corning out with harder textures and gutsier lyrics. Now New Wave will become passe and the next wave will come along. How new is New?

Vendors

continued from page 1 "Right now, the responsibility rests with the sponsoring organization," Braun said. "I guess my responsibility ... is if there is a problem with' safety or healty standards." Jerry Wartgow, executive director of the Auraria Higher Education Center (AHEC), said the question concerning off-campus vendors in the Student Center has only indirectly come up, regarding distribution of political literature. The Colorado attorney general ruled Auraria had to allow the distribution, but could limit where the distribution was conducted. With regards to sale of merchandise, Wartgow said the responsibility within Auraria now ultimately rests with the Student Services Policy Council (SSPC). SSPC Chairman Neil Harlan said the question has never come up at an SSPC meeting. "The Policy Council has never tried to intrude into that area,'' Harlan said. He doubted the SSPC could be held responsible anyway because it doesn't have final approving authority for vendors. Braun said the question bad never come up before. No liability release form is signed between the vendor and the Student Center or AHEC. A regular vendor at Auraria over the past two years has been Ki.Ilg Twitty Jewelry, owned by Walter G. Twitty, 1101 Beeler St., Aurora. Twitty was most recently on campus last week, sponsored by Community College of DenverAuraria Student Activities.

Eric Hughes, coordinator of student activities for CCD-A, said arrangements with Twitty called for ten percent commission to CCD-A. "It's more or less of an honor system with the vendor," Hughes said. "We don't ask for an itemized list." Last semester, CCD-A student activities earned $876.57 from commissions on vendors it sponsored in the Student Center. They expect to _earn at least $2,200 this fiscal year. CCD-A has also sponsored Gems by Gerri, J&H Greenhouses, Leather Goods, Inc., and Travels Treasures, Inc. When Twitty was selling in the Center last week, he did not have his occupational sales license openly displayed nor did he have a sign stating the organization sponsoring him. Twitty was never told during the week to display either, although Braun had with CCD-A student activities a reservation agreement stating both stipulations. Twitty has valid occupational tax and sales licenses, according to City and County of Denver officials; does not have a negative report on file with the regional office of the Better Business Bureau; but is also not listed in the white or yellow pages of the Mountain Bell phone directory. Twitty said be provides a service to students, offering goods at reasonable prices. Loree Rice, an MSC student, told THE METROPOLITAN last week she sold to a "Fred somebody," who was working with Twitty, five gold and silver rings at what she later considered a very low, unfair price and when she asked to have the rings returned to her in exchange

to buy all the "scrap jewelry" Newton bought. He denied being abusive to Rice and said one-but not all five-of the "' rings had been put in the display case. Newton said because of the misunderstanding, he had quit purchasing jewelry in the Center, but still taped to the front of his sales table was a handprinted sign: "I Buy Scrap Gold-Silver." Newton also has valid Denver re~ licenses. Still assuming that Twitty was responsible for Rice's complaint, Hughes said he decided it was not improper for Twitty,. to buy jewelry, even though his agreement stated he was to "sell" jewelry. Hughes did say he would talk to .._ Twitty about the incident. Hughes expressed concern that students be aware of the value of their jewelry, especially with the current price of gold and silver. Twitty said he was not involved in the Rice incident, and added that he tries to educate his customers about the merchandise they buy. • Hughes said all vendors, including Twitty, had previously exchanged any damaged or questionable merchandise. No problems had risen before. Braun said the incident might cause a review of Student Center policies. SSPC Chairman Harlan said witfi the exception of specific approvals by the SSPC, only student governments and approv~d clubs and academic departments could sponsor vendors. That would eliminate student activities from sponsoring vendors. AHEC Executive Director Wartgow said in the future the SSPC could possibly limit or prohibit certain vendors coming into the Center.

for the money she received, she was lied to and then verbally abused. Rice said the man told her he had already sold the rings, but a friend she was with said he saw all five rings in the display case. The salesman then told here she would have to pay his retail price to retrieve the rings, she said. The salesman who bought the rings was Fred Newton, who later said he was selling and buying jewelry in the Center as Fred Newton and Son. Rice took her story to Eric Hughes and Linda Wilson, who told her in effect that a deal is a deal. Hughes was under the impression that Twitty was responsible for the transaction. "It made me realize," Hughes said, "that Twitty was doing something he hadn't done in the past, which was purchasing." Twitty told THE METROPOLITAN that Newton was working independently, although they shared space in the Center and Newton turned his profits over to Twitty to figure the commission to be paid to CCD-A student activities, Twitty said. But Newton said he paid five percent commission "to the students," and that his son, an MSC student, handled it. CCD-A student activities did not have an agreement with Newton for last week, nor have they ever sponsored him, according to Wilson. In reference to Rice, Newton said the argument was not so much with Rice, but with her friend, who wanted to buy one of the rings at a lower price than Newton marked it at. He said he told Rice the rings were already sold because he had a prearranged deal with Twitty for Twitty

Sports Player losses to hurt MSC tennis The MSC tennis team will probably not do as well this season as coach James Bernunth had predicted last fall. "In the fall we had what I thought would be a strong team," said Bernunth~ director of MSC Cooperative Educatioi.. ''However, we've had some students drop out and some fall short of credits, . making them ineligible fo compete." Therefore, he must start over and rebuild most of the team from scratch. In just the last week, five players were added to the team. Bernunth said the March schedule is light and he will talk to any student interested in joining the team. This year the team will play in 14 dual matches and two tournaments in district 7 of NAIA play. A dual match is . a match between two college teams. Each team pits its number one player against the other's, number two against number two, and so on down the line. In addition, the team will play several other tournaments on an individual basis. In these tournaments all names of players on a team are put in a pot, and the coaches "seed" the players according to their ability. Bemunth said a good repertoire of "shots" for a player to have includes a good serve, good ground strokes, and an ability to play well at the net. He also emphasizes a winning strategy. "If my players find themselves losing," he said, "try something dif-

ferent. Sometimes this will throw an opponent off his rhythm, and that will be just enough to give you a psychological advantage.'' Bernunth wants his players to eliminate mistakes and develop their shots to develop as much consistency as they can. "I don't want them to try and win games by hitting all winners," he said . "Because if they try to hit all winners, it's likely they'll lose the point." As far as the Auraria tennis facilities are concerned, they are exceUent, Bernunth said. They are just as good if not better than facilities at any other district school, he said. Nevertheless, he does have complaints about their maintenence. He said now that the season has begun, the courts should be cleaned at least once a week because they are located where -they are exposed to the elements, leaving them dusty and dirty. Bernunth also cites the physical education department with leaving the court nets out all year. They get watersoaked, which damages them, be said. As far as how the team Will do this year, he hopes the April schedule of 3 and 4 games a week will gear the players up for the district championships in Pueblo. Their season opener, March 7, was cancelled because of.inclement weather. The next match is March 17, at Boulder, against the University of Colorado.
