4-Program explores Mayan cultures by Donald Griego

A marriage of two MSC departplents provides students a world perspec1ive of life and a first-hand look at ancient civilizations. The Chicano studies and modern language departments will sponsor their fourth annual Language-Cultural Institute in Mexico this summer. "Every year we have tried to accent •hat we call a third type of culture experience,'' said David Conde, associate dean of the center for interdisciplinary studies. "That is, contrasting experiences here in the United States with the urban experience in Mexico." Conde said he wants participating ftudents-through this program-to increase their motivation for critical thinking. Also, to develop a world perspective of life, that the world is deeper than their everyday life. For three years the Chicano studies pd modern languages department have _,onsored the yearly visits to the Yucatan peninsula. Because of access and cost, the group will again travel to Mexico City and use it as a base for visits to the upper Yucatan. The emphasis of tb_e class will be on the second Maya ,renaissance in the j,eriod 1000 AD-1250 AD. The group will visit the four major Mayan centers of Uxmal, Chichen Itza, Mayapan, and Palenque.

Hews 'It just wasn't wort#J it,'

so Martinez dropped out

by Joan Conrow I When MSC student body President Floyd Martinez took his name off the ballot, supposedly ending his re-election bid, did he know he was going to win? Martinez dropped out of the race Thursday, April 17, only two days before the polls closed. Unofficial results Saturday showed him as the winner. Martinez officially withdrew for "personal reasons," leaving bis opponent, Sonny Wasinger, uncontested in the presidential bid. ..,,. "I'm sure they're (Wassinger and running mate Fred Hopkins) capable of doing the same job I did," Martinez said. "I'm relieved." Martinez said several reasons in. fluenced his decision. "It just wasn't worth it anymore," he said. He said the job was constantly on his mind and he found himself "yelling for no reason, getting depressed, and unable to smile at home." " I had no time to study," Martinez said. " I felt really stifled, unable to do the things I really want to do." Beside the demands on time, Martinez said he was unprepared for the animosity he encountered as student body president. "I knew it'd be a lot of work, but I didn't know about the enemies one made, or the personality conflicts, '' he said. "Student government brings out the

worst in people.'' Despite the negative aspects involved with his term, Martinez said he has no regrets about his administration and "would do it all over again and run things the same way.'' "It was beneficial to me," he said. "I really learned a lot about myself and a lot about other people." Martinez said one thing did bother him: "We can look back and perhaps one of the sad things is we took a lot of heat all year and never really had our positive points brought up." He credits his administration with accomplishing 13 of their 14 goals and stimulating student interest in student government. "The interest is up," Martinez said. "The pressure is going to be on Sonny (Wassinger) to serve the students and work for their interests." Martinez said he wanted to wish his successors the "best of luck," and appreciated the support he had received in his re-election bid. "I would like to express thanks to all the people who voted for Jocko (Spencer, ASMSC vice president) and me," Martinez said. "I'm sorry we let them down, but we examined it all and decided it just wasn't worth it." Martinez's plans include starting a film club, concentrating on his studies and graduate school, and having his

Voucher system ·could revolutionize education by Sal Ruibal

Last of a three part series The financing of higher education in Colorado has become a complex game in which even the most well-thought out plans are dashed in the political arena of the state Legislature. Budget items that took years to conceive and develop often become hostages of rival factions inside the Statehouse. Legislators insist on managerial control over the funds they appropriate to individual schools. Through the Colorado Commission on Higher .. Education, they determine the size, strucl> _ture, and programs of every statesupported school in Colorado. Although it appears the trend is toward even greater government control of higher education, several influential Republican legislators are proposing a system that would take the Legislature out of the higher education business. Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-Arvada) and Sen. Hugh Fowler (R-Littleton) are backing a proposal to create a student voucher system as one means of funding postsecondary programs. Under such a system, qualified persons would receive a voucher that could be used as legal tender to cover education expenses at an institution. In the current funding system, a resident student pays with tuition, about

Now, more than ever before, stu- ~ dents can reduce the cost of a trip abroad by living and working in another country. This summer, hundreds of U.S. students will find jobs in France, Ireland, Great Britain and New Zealand through the Work Abroad program sponsored by the Council on International Educational • Exchange (CIEE). In its tenth year of operation, the program cuts through the red tape that students face when they want to work overseas. Participants must find their own jobs, but they receive help from cooperating student organizations in each country. The jobs are usually unskilledin factories, department stores, hotelsbut they pay enough to cover the cost of room and board. Students must be at least 18 years old and able to prove their student status. To · work in France, they must be able to speak French. For more information and application forms , contact CIEE, Dept.

""lime's up on unpaid tines by Charlotte Rath So you thought you were safe-no one would try to collect on that pile of ~usty Auraria parking tickets in your glove compartment.

Editorial Our politics: bickering, confusion [

by Lou Chapman If you attend enough student government meetings you almost find yourself believing these people take themselves seriously. It sometimes gets that bad. . This semester, THE METROPOLITAN has watched the Student Affairs Committee, Student Affairs Board, Joint Committee, and Election Commission. It is a wonder they accomplished anything at all ...and no wonder at all that President Martinez has decided to blow it all off. No doubt the student officials mean well. No doubt Martinez brought on more than a few of his own headaches. But if you could have sat in on meetings in which they- bickered over who said what at which previous meeting, who has what sway and what control over which funds, who did not bother to get what information to whom, and why · who never told whom about what meeting ... no wonder the student body in general is uncertain about the functions of student government. The officials themselves are uncertain about their functions and seem to spend a good deal of their meeting time interpreting the Constitution, its by-laws, and various committee rules. Now, there is a good reason for some of this: the ASMSC Constitution is a mass of ill-defined, selfserving, and nearly usel~ss guidelines that should be revamped through referendum. Nonetheless, the main job of student government

this year was doling out student fees. They concerned themselves with little else. They were rarely seen at meetings of the Auraria Board of Directors or at meetings of the Trustees of the Consortium. They did, however, coordinate the two student government elections held this year. The most recent campaigns were marked by arguments, contestations, nit-picking, haranguing, and accusations of slander and physical threats. Well, that's politics. (They should have simply had a tug-of-war across Lawrence Street during rush hour: quick and to the point.) You'd think they'd learn to roll with the punches, take the licks of the business and get on with it instead of wasting so much time quarreling amongst themselves and trying to protect images and egos around people they spend so much time with and know so well anyway! Now, THE METROPOLITAN will catch flak for this article. The writer will personally catch a lot of it but in turn it bas a very good chance of being taken out on the newspaper as a whole. It's budget time. The newspaper is about one-fifth funded by student fees; most of the rest we earn by selling advertising. Student fees are doled out annually • by the Student Affairs Board based on recommendations of the Student Affairs Committee. Ergo, they have a chance at retribution: cutting our budget for next year. The suggestion has been bounced around student government with more than passing in-

terest. Of course, down in the newspaper office, we have conjured the idea of turning over to our staff all student government functions and responsibilities, but we'i;e overworked as it is. We are now considering a military coup, with ROTC commandos in the forefront. It's odd. While campaigning, candidates say the students don't know what is going on and a student newspaper should present more on-campus and student government news. Not only that, but during campaigns, the newspaper seems to become Big Mother to all sides, listening to the accusations and being asked if we "are going to run anything about it.'' Then, when the elections are over, the committees are in session, and the newspap,er is covering the wheelings, dealings, and actions of the student government, those same ex-candidates (now representatives) say the newspaper is an adversary, a fiend, a bender oi truth, and a perverter of facts. And these are the people who dole out student fees for items that range from this newspaper to athle<tics to subsidies for students who send their kids to the Auraria Child Care Center. Those representatives are not the people we have written for. We have written for the general studexu population. Well, that's the newspaper business and I guess you have to roll with the punches.

Letter.s UCD Students:~ I was disappointed to see Mr. Murray's letter of endorsement of a cohort in last week's newspaper. Firstly, it must be understood that John is the student government person in charge of this election. His job is to ensure that no infractions or unethical dealings occur. Secondly, one of the rules of conduct of the election is that "no elected student government official may use his/her office to endorse a candidate.'' Because of this position, as watch dog for the election and since he ran for office last year using the same rules, I find this indiscretion a blatant abuse of his office. TomHaukas Editor: In reading the Election Code I have come to the understCll\ding that it is improper for me to endorse a candidate as a student government officer. Therefore, I would appreciate it if you would print a clarification in the next issue that would state that at no time has it been my desire to use my office to publicly endorse any candidate. My letter last week was intended to support Dee Tollman only as one student to another student. I was not aware of this particular provision in the Election Code. . Thank you for printing this retraction of my official endorsement. John Murray

Letter to the Editor: In Colorado alone there are hazardous materials from nuclear reactors being transported to a particular plant. In turn these materials are manufactured in plutonium triggers, nuclear explosive components. This process is finally through when a new bomb is brought into the world. This means that ultimately waste must be dumped within our biosphere, creating ecological problems. The effects will be seen in the human condition, inevitably. Some say that nuclear plants create mcome ana jobs. The US military spends over a quarter of their budget towards nuclear facilities. It seems quite evident that such an amount of money could be spent for human services and needs, which would produce more

jobs and increase or strenthen the economy. What it comes down to is a political military rivalry between the USA and USSR. If both countries continue squandering resources on production of nuclear weapons throughout the world the reality of total destruction happening becomes more apparent. Each must realize that such trite squabbling such as the control of the Persian Gulf, could very well set off a nuclear holocaust. We the people should take it upon ourselves to protest the production of more nuclear weapons. The child born into the world should have the right to live in an environment free of nuclear contamination. " NO NUKES" EricD. Luna

To The Editor: In the April 2 issue of the METROPOLITAN there was an article regarding the closure of Safe House and York Street Center and its effect on MSC students. As a work study student at Columbine Center, VOA's safe house for battered women, I found the article very biased in implying that VOA does not provide internships and public education. The facts, however, are that in 1979 Columbine Center alone provided 1605 hours of student intern training for several colleges and universities including MSC, CSU, Regis, UCD, UNC, CU Med. Center and even an intern from England. During 1979, the counselors at Columbine provided 200 hours of public education throughout the Metro area for individuals and groups from Learning for Living, United Way, Colorado General Hospital, Colorado Association for Aid to Battered Women, social workers, churches and more. So, the statement "VOA holds presentations only at its Brandon Guest House'' is an erroneous statement. As a matter of fact, a counselor from Columbine is scheduled to present to MSC's Womens Study class the week.of April 21 . Everyone regrets the loss of York Street Center, but I personally find it sad that professional people who worked together for the same cause should now turn their anger towards the remaining agency and prejudge their leagues. Thank you, Bonnie L. Pepin

Inside Rocky Flats: profit, progress, by Marilyn Jacobs and Sal Ruibal

On April 18, THE METROPOLITAN interviewed an Auraria student who has been employed for nine years at the Rocky Flats Weapons Plant. Because he fears reprisals from his employer, Rockwell International, he prefers not to be identified. In the foilowing article, he shall be referred to simply as "Mike. "

Rocky Flats worker: "the rally won't change anything because the government wants it to stay open." Congresswoman Pat Schroeder (below) told the crowd that rumors of war are rampant in Washington, D.C. She supported the closure of the plant, saying "What's more important, people or plutonium?"

"I first became aware of the problem when they used to. post obituaries down there. I'd read those things and start to think. They don't post them anymore!' Because of his environmental studies at Metropolitan State College, Mike believes the real danger at the Rocky Flats plant is to those who work there.not to the surrounding communities. ->< ''An ecology class changed me ~ around,,, Mike said, "I was pro-Rocky c: Flats before then. -" u "Going to school you find out about § • a lot of things ... you change your at- ~ titudes and views,,, he said. u=~__.

Aurarians work to close nudear weapons plant While 17 ,000 anti-Rocky Flats protestors chanted "no more nukes, no more nukes,,. a member of the Aurarians Against the Nukes explained how his involvement with the movement began: , "It was one year ago, right here at Rocky Flats ... I came out here for the rally,'' Chris Dugan said. "I had been aware of the plant for the four years I lived in Denver, so I thought it was time to stand up and be counted. George Wall spoke at the rally and was very inspiring. The next day I went out and got arrested," he said. The lanky, long-haired Dugan was found guilty of trespassing onto the Rocky Flats property and was fined $500. Dugan was instrumental in the AAN drive for support of the rally at Rocky Flats this year. The AAN is a member of the Rocky Flats Coalition, a consortium of several local activist groups.

Machines stranded in library Getting anything from a broken vending machine is next to impossible, but try getting rid o( the contraption when the company responsible for it is out of order, too. Such is the problem now confronting the Auraria Higher Education Center · Library. Shirley Marecak, library· administrative services assistant, said the most recent firm holding the contract for the postage stamp, plastic lamination, and ball point pen dispensers there has apparently gone out of business. All contracts for the machines (located to the left of the library entrance) have expired. Marecak said efforts to reach the J&D Vending Machine company of Castle Rock, who had the last contract, have been unsuccessful. Prior to J&D, the contract had been held by an individual. According to Marecak, the machines, installed in February 1977 by a Joyce Tavrow, have rarely worked properly. Numerous "Out Of Order" signs have been posted on them-the• latest dated November 27, 1979-only to be removed by unknown persons, she said. Unsuspecting library patrons have then tried to use the machines and ended up demanding refunds. Mar.ecak said the amount lost was negligible, but was simply another expense which escalated

library operating costs. Marecak said the service agreement on the machines was renewed in February 1978 but expired under new fiscal policies in July of that year. It was not renewed, she said. Possibly at the same time, Joyce Tavr6w was going out of business . Telephoned by THE METROPOLITAN, Lee Tavrow, who· spoke for . Joyce Tavrow, couldn't recall exactly when the company closed its doors, but said it was "probably" in the summer of 1978. He said inflation made the business unprofitable. Although a new contract was never signed with Tavrow or any other firm, Marecak said busipess cards for the Jcfd) Vending Machine Company were taped to each dispenser. She didn't remember specifically when that was, but noted it was after the summer of 1978. Sh,e said Tavrow was "bad" about maintaining the equipment, but that J&D "absolutely never talked to us-period." Getting in touch with J&D has proved difficult for the library administration. Repeated telephone calls have gone unanswered, Marecak said. she did say that one call got through earlier this year. Marecak recalled it was a Tuesday. She quoted the woman she spo~e with as saying: "My husband has Wednesdays off. He'll be there tomorrow to pick 'em up."

Marecak said the woman apologized about the problems with the machines, but that no one showed up the next day to remove theni. Contacted later by telephone at the number listed on a J&D business card, a man told THE METROPOLITAN the company folded in August 1979. He of-fered to have J&D official return the call. The call was nc!ver- returned' .and three subsequent attempts to contact ' the company failed. Marecak speculated that when J&D went out of business it sold its machines "but forgot ours." The Auraria purchasing and receiving office has no record of the library machines, but according to purchasing agent Jack Yost, that is because of administrative procedures, not a foulup in communications. Yost said when vending machine problems occur in his jurisdiction, either party has the option of cancelling the contract on ninety days written notice. Then, Yost said, competitive bidding procedures are followed to reestablish the service. Yost said because he had no knowledge of the library machines, he could only speculate on how the agreement for service was reached or how the library might get relief. The library staff is now trying to find out who owns the dispensers,

Marecak said. Since they do not belong to the library, she is checking to make sure putting the machines somewhere else ·won't invite legal action from whoever is found to be the final owner. If the machines can legally be moved, Marecak said she would like to arrange for someone from the AHEC physical plant to transfer them to a storage area. All three dispensers are connected by a padlocked chain strung around the bottom of each. "I don't think anyone ever got a good pt;n out of the ball-point dispenser anyway," she concluded. "They're like 17 years old."

Denver offers anonymity, at least by Pat Rule For gays, Denver is a better place to live than Podunk, Idaho, for instance, because Denver offers freedom with anonymity. · -Between 10 and 12 percent of Denver's total population is homosexual, according to Joe Fisher, co-coordinator of the Gay Community Center of Colorado. Fisher said this is average for large metropolitan areas. "Gay people migrate to urban areas like Denver because people don't know them as well there," Fisher said. "They can feel a little more free with themselves than in a little community of 5,000 people where everyone knows when somebody sneezes. That's a horrible environment to grow-up and live in when you're doing something that's considered against the norms of society.'' The Gay Community Center, a nonprofit, tax-exempt organization at 1436 Lafayette St., was founded in 1976. It provides services such as a hotline for crisis intervention, counseling sessions for emotional problems, referrals to treatment centers for drug and alcohol abuse, and VD testing. "Everyday we have people calling up who are just starting to come out, just starting to explore their sexuality,'' Fisher said. "They're crying out for help in one way or another. If we weren't here I don't know what these people would

do." , Carol Lease, co-coordinator with Fisher, is the center's first woman coordinator. Lease predicts many chan,ses during the next six months as the center becomes more integrated. "Historically, lesbians have not become involved with gay men's groups or projects," Lease said. i,ease said that 24 percent of the center's membership is women. Lease explained that many gay men and women have come to believe that "the oppression and discrimination against gay people is never going to change significantly until the oppression and discrimination against women is changed." On the issue of police harassment of gays, Fisher said the main complaint was not with gay establishments, but with entrapment of individuals, primarily in Capitol Hill. ''Off-duty vice police would allegedly drive around in an orangecolored van and pick up males, than arrest them for attempting prostitution whether or not they had, in fact, been hustling," Fisher said. Fisher said there were a number of incidents of gay people allegedly being beaten without just cause at the police vehicle garage at 12th Avenue and Broadway. Fisher said gay people were also being picked up on alleged sex charges

and put on medical hold in the county jail. They were forced to take medication for venereal disease whether or not they · were infected. "They were forced to take ampicillian which can be potentially lethal for someone with a penicillin allergy," Fisher said. According to Tom O'Connor, consultant at the Denver Commis&ion on Community Relations, gay people were not forced to take medication by the police.

O'Connor said they were given a choice between instant treatment and being placed on a 12 day medical bold until they could be tested for VD. O'Connor said the practice has been suspended by the police until a new method of dealing with the situation can be found. In general, there has been ''significant improvement in relations between the gay community and police," O'Connor said. And for gays, Denver may still be a better place to live than Podunk, Idaho.

Three progr•ms look at Kent State, Southern Africa, and racial bias The Denver chapter of the International Committee Against Racism (INCAR) is sponsoring three programs, April 24-26, which will look at the impact of the Kent State killings ten years ago, the aparatheid system in Southern Africa, and organizing against the draft and fighting racism in schools and on the job. INCAR will sponsor an anti-war conference, Saturday, April' 26, at the Auraria Student Center, Ninth and Lawrence streets. The conference, "We Won't Fight a Racist, Imperialist War," is part of a nationwide campaign against military recruitment and the draft. The conference begins at 10 a.m.

At the University of Denver, in room 456 of the Business Administration Building at 8 p.m. on Thursday, . a program about Southern Africa will include the film, Last Grave at Dimbaza, with discussion focusing on the current problems in Zimbabwe. The role of the U.S. government and corporate support for the aparatheid system will also be discussed. On Friday, in room 257 of the Auraria Student Center at 7 p.m., eyewitnesses to the killings of students at Kent State Univeristy on May 4, 1970, will discuss the impact of that event. INCAR is a multi-racial organization ·of workers, students, and soldiers fighting racism on the job, in the schools, and in the military.

. shaped like an extended guitar neck, without the body. Its ten strings provide the full octave dimension of a piano, but the Stick has a distinctly guitar-like sound. Until now, the Stick has been a oovelty, used by demonstrators and musicians who want to get into something little different. Kittyhawk is the first band to use the Stick. The two principals of Kittyhawk, Daniel Bortz and Paul Edwards, have mastered the Stick technique to the point where they carry the full load of bass and rhythm section. Add to that a sax player and a drummer and we have a bonafide fourpiece band. Musically, Kittyhawk is uncomfortably close to the Pat Metheny mold. Meandering a thin line between jazz and rock, the atmosphere of Kittyhawk'.s pieces range from high-energy jazz-rock to quiet, melancholic tunes a la Oregon. Two cuts off the album, "Chinese Fire Drill" and "Once Upon a Time" have a distinct Weather Report feel, with double high-hat percussion and effective bass counterpoint. As for the Stick, it very often sounds like an ordinary guitar, seemingly indistinguishable from the real guitar dubbed in on several tracks. But on the quieter pieces, the Stick shines through; its mellow, rich voice adds a full-bodied

The Wright brothersYz used a new kind of powered machine to make that historic flight at Kittyhawk, North Carolina. , Now Kittyhawk is the name given to a band which uses a new instrument. The instrument is the Chapman Stick Touchboard. Developed only six years ago by Emmett Ch.a pman, the Stick, as it has come to be known, is

character to the sound. Oddly, there are no Stick solos. The impression here is that these men have mastered the Stick to de"°elop thematic structures but have stopped short of displaying individual virtuosity. The future of the Chapman Stick Touchboard will depend on its total flexibility. Someone will have to emerge as the Chapman Stick star.

In a way, the contrast between these albums represents the decline of music in the '70s. From 1971 to 1975, the Mahavishnu Orchestra reigned over the progressive

'Buffalo' boring and redundant by Lou Chapman

WHERE-THE BUFFAW ROAM Starring BUI Murray and Peter Boyle. Produced and directed by Art Linson.

...

This movie should come with a warning in its advertising: Not Intended for Persons Who Enjoy the Work of Hunter S. Thompson or Wish to Learn Anything More About Him. From the opening scene through the final escapade, Where The Buffa/o Roam is nothing .more than a redundant outpour of Bill Murray as journalist Hunter S. Thompson and Peter Boyle as his sidekick lawyer, Karl Lazio, as they run amok, consume vast quantities of Wild Turkey, vodka, and various and sundry drugs, and get in and out of trouble while Thompson tries to meet deadlines for a mythical magazine. It wouldn't be a bad premise if the movie wasn't allegedly about a fine journalist and if the m·ovie wasn't so boring (how many drug jokes can you cram into one and a half hours?). Hunter S. Thompson is a mainstay of modern journalism. His writings have earned him the title "outlaw journalist" and have led to the phrase "gonzo journalism." · Thompson immerses himself in his stories. He becomes a part of those

stories while they are happening, all the while telling and seeing the tale through a new eye, a different angle, with a unique perception. His stories have ranged from the fall of Saigon, while the Viet Cong moved in, to riding-'on separate occasions-with Hell's Angels and Richard Nixon. Thompson~s articles are insightful, logical, articulate, and include a large dose of drugs, alcohol, and craziness. Within a story, it is often hard to tell the reality from the creations of Thompson's imagination. Nonetheless, he has a feeling for humanity, an understanding of the shaping of events, and a sense of humor that combined are unparalleled in journalism today. , Where The Buffalo Roam deals with the drugs, alcohol, and craziness of a few scenes from Thompson's own tales. That's all this movie does. The advertising states the film is "based on the twisted legend of Dr. Hunter S. Thompson." It barely does that. It's almost false, or at least misleading, advertising. We assume this movie does try to portray the cflaracter and some of the Unfortunately, Murray does not depth of Thompson (there are one or two have the acting skill to pull it off, thoughtful moments by Murray). The assuming producer and director Art Linpress packet for the film .details how son tried ~tall to get at those subtleties. Thus, Where The Buffalo Roam Murray spent hours of time with Thompson, studying bis mannerisms, voice, m\}st be taken as a zany, wild, crazy romp, not trying to deal with Thompand subtleties. son's serious side or his unique character. The movie fails here, too. We see Thompson blasting away at bis telecopier with a .45 pis\ol to shut it up; lying in a· hospital bed with his nurse, a tube from a medicinal bottle dripping Wild Turkey into his mouth while he dictates a story into a handsize tape recorder strapped to his arm; pulling out a marijuana .ci~arette while speaking to a very straight college audience; driving his car and typing a story at the same time; playing football with hotel employees in his hotel room; and on and on and on. The gags are all very cheap, hardly having the class or style of events Thompson would bother to write about, let alone think interesting enough on which ·to base a movie. Poor editing, filming, and awkward scene angles add to the feeling that it is a movie made in someone's backyard with self-supposed grea~ ideas conjured up while getting

stoned and wondering what to do with a large sum of money to kill. Where The Buffalo Roam has one saving grace: Peter Boyle. Boyle is a skilled, finely tuned actor who reflects timing, mood, and a finese that is missing in every other major aspect of the film. But Boyle's work does not justify whatever the price will be to sit ... through the movie. Another misconception propagated by the movie's advertising is the allegation that the music is by Neil Young. As the movie opens, Young sings a slow, dirge-like version of "Home, Home on the Range.'' The rest of the soundtrack is songs recorded and per, formed by Bob Dylan, Creedance Clearwater Revival, The Temptations, and other artists. Where The Buffalo Roam is for people who do not mind· bad slapstick, for people who know nothing about Hunter S. Thompson and who don't ex~ pect this movie to tell them anything, for people who can persevere long periods of time watching someone yell and then. mumble, drink alcohol and then pop pills, and for people who are amused by someone snorting cocaine while driving down a highway. •

continued from page 15 dian motifs with an internal energy that just wouldn't stop. Drummer Billy Cobham was an integral force in the Orchestra, propelling its high-energy numbers with funk and soul that has influenced every drummer since. When the Orchestra disbanded, Cobham cut some fine LPs for Atlantic, he displayed his compositional flair for the Central American beat (he's from Panama). Several fine soloists, such as Garnett Brown, Joe Farrell and the Brecker Brothers, added to Cobhain's creative pieces-at times, powerfully fast, at others, quietly reflective. Toward the end of the decade, Cobham changed labels and it is from these efforts that Columbia has culled Cobham's Best Of album. Cobham has gone full disco with singing, funky basslines, and a general reflection of the travesty disco has imparted on the modemear. Columbia has issued several of these Best Of albums from artists like Maynard Ferguson, Tom Scott, Stan Getz, Eric Gale and more. They are all packaged in paper-bag brown covers with red and black words and borders. The Mahavishnu Orchestra release contains a fine spectrum of the band's work. The cuts are somewhat disjointed chronologically; one would prefer to hear the progression of the band from the dense Inner Mounting Flame album to the experimental Apocalypse. "Sister Andrea" from the little-known live album Between Nothingness and Eternity is a welcome inclusion. The albums sound remarkably good for their status-most Best Of series suffer from a chronic lack of dynamics. But the surface noises are still present and the Mahavishnu disc has some scratches of mysterious origin ... ah, the rigors of mass production.

MSC hardballers blanked by . nationally ranked Grand Canyon by Leonard Weingarten J Eager, excited, and somewhat uncertain of what lay ahead, the MS~ baseball team recently traveled to Phoenix to play Grand Canyon College, a school nationally ranked in the NAIA. MSC lost all four games of two double-headers, but the competition was sharp. The Roadrunners were faci,ng a team with a batting average of .331, which had not lost a game in over two weeks, and carried a 28-7 record. The Grand Canyon team has no freshmen and only one sophomore, but MSC has 17 freshmen and three sophomores. Finally, prior to playing Metro, Grand Canyon had· defeated .!l Arizona State University 13-4. ASU has :ii been known for its high caliber of ~ baseball which has produced many ~ profesisonal players. :S On April 11, MSC and Grand :§ Canyon played in windy 85 degree :?: weather.

At the plate, Curt Culver, Larry Stallworth, Pat Smaldone, -and Chuck Anderson each collected three hits, while Roger Raney and Gary Romero connected twice.

Beth Wilkinson paces women's soccer squad by Bruce Riley In double overtime on April 15, the MSC Women's Soccer team tied University of Denver 1-1. Metro lost two of their players during the game: midfielder Laura Lamb, who left early to go to work, and midfielder Penny Fantasia, who suffered ,, a knee injury. Fantasia was injured when she collided with the DU goalie, who was also injured. Forward Beth Wilkinson· scored Metro's goal. April 18, 19, and 20, Metro participated in the Colorado College Invitational Women's Soccer Tournament in Colorado Springs. First, Metro managed to hold the University of Northem Colorado scoreless for a no-score tie. Twice before UNC had defeated Metro. Metro tied Indiana University on April 19. A goal scored by Wilkinson with about two minutes left to play saved a loss. On the same day, Metro was defeated by Colorado State Univ. 2-0. Briefly summing up the day's games, Coach Bill Chambers said: "We were a little sluggish against IU, we could have moved faster. Against CSU, we weren't used to playing on the astro-turf and they had just played three games on it." On April 20, Metro finished the · tournament with a 1-0 upset victory over the home town favorite and tournament host, Colorado College. MSC forward Sherri Good scored the goal. Overall, Metro placed seventh out of twelve teams in the tournament.

TUESDAY APRIL 29 Soccer: MSC vs. Colorado School of Mines at Auraria, 4 p.m.

Softball in first place At 9-5 so far, the Women's Softball team is in first place in its division. They played games last Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, April 18-20.

Against Mesa College Sunday, Metro again won 6-1and11-0. Coach Teresa Phariss said if they can win two of the next four games- • against Western State and Adams State-the team can make it to the regionals.

Baseball team goes 2·3 The MSC baseball team wound up in the loser's bracket in last weekend's Metro-Denver tournament. "We ended up winning two and losing three," said coach Bill Helman. "We came up with a couple of sore-arm pitchers, so we had to use everyone." The team got off to a good start Saturday, beating Western State 14-2. They were stopped in the sixth inning by the 10-run rule (if a team is winning by at least 10 points after five innings, the game will end). However, they lost the second game to DU (13-7), a team_ the Roadrunners have had problems with all year. After losing to DU, Metro went into the tournament's loser's bracket and played a third game Saturday. They lost to Colorado School of Mines 13-7. Sunday they beat Colorado College 19-7. · In the fifth and final game, MSC lost to Chadrin State 7-3. At 9-18 so far this season, the team still has 20 games to play in the next three weeks. "The rest of the season is going to be rugged,'' Helman said. "It'll be the worst part of our schedule." The team's last game will be against Wyoming on May 11.
