Recession boosts fall enrollments f

by Lynn Welch

What's bad for the nation's economy appears to be good for Auraria's two major institutions. School officials cite the recession ·"ts the cause of dramatic enrollment increases at both UCD and MSC. George Burnham, UCD director of admissions and records -said enrollment is up 14.7 percent ..._over pre-registration figures from last fall as of Sept. 2. They are presently within 3 percent of last year's total enrollment. "I suspect we'll be above our _ _potals from last fall by the ·final census day, Sept. 17th,•' Burnham said. Burnham cited the drop in the local economy as a reason for the increase. ·~ ''When students are out of work they go back to school. .. especially if they can get some financial aid," he said. UCD's lower cost is also a factor. k "Students can no longer . afford to pay for room and board at CU, CSU and UNC, so they're living at home and going to school here,•• Burnham said. While UCD's enrollment is

edging up, MSC's is surging. Glen admitted that . cost good place to start."

Hews Task force to investigate status of women at·MSC .......t~~~~~by~_K_a_re_n_B_res~u_·n~~A seven-member task force has been established by President Donald Macintyre to investigate the status of women at MSC. The formation of the President's Advisory Committee on Sex Equity was ~ announced at the July 30 meeting of the Trustees of the Consortium of State Colleges - MSC's governing board. The coinmittee is comprised of four women and three men selected from faculty and administrative ranks. - Committee members are: Janis ~ Bohan, professor of psychology; Megan Mcclard, professor of women's studies; Neil McElhinney, professor of nursing and health care management; and .anen Susman, professor of psychology. Administrators include: James Vanderhye, business manager; Doris ·•Peters, assistant to the vice-president for academic affairs; and Antonio Esquibel, vice president for student affairs. · According to Bohan, chair of the committee, the group will examine not only hiring practices, faculty s~ary and promotional patterns, but any other 'women's issues such as child care or sexism in the classroom. "At this point the task force is primarily concerned with faculty and staff," Bohan said. "At some point we will want to include students.'' The committee's function, she ~ded, is to make policy suggestions to the administration. Bohan said a preliminary report on the status of female faculty will be ready by the end of the semester. · Currently, statistical data is being gathered. Bohan said they will begin f matching every female faculty member with a male counterpart with"comparable

'

length of service, rank and education to track their salary and promotional records. Bohan has mixed feelings about the effectiveness of the commission: "If the task force maintains the level of enthusiasm it was begun with, and assume for ourselves that we can change, it is possible. But," she added, "I don't think we can eliminate sexism." Bohan said she is concerned that flagging enthusiasm, time pressures, a possible withdrawal of support by MSC leaders, or resistance from people "who believe we are a group of radicals complaining about triviality,'' could limit the commission. Bohan agreed the presence of administrators and men on the commission increased the potential for wavering committments, but said that each man was chosen for his sensitivity and concern for women's issues. She added that the men were necessary to form a balanced committee and provide credibility. "It's not only credibility... we really want the council to do a legitimate study of the status of women," Bohan said. ·~we recognize the potential for bias." Bohan said she has seen no real _,,, improvement in the numbers of women § in administrative positions. . ~ "The problem," she said, "is not Gi . . - - -.... just Metro, it's society. . Committee member J~nls Bohan, Psychology professor "It's a historical issue, an endunng .social attitude that women are less important than men. · "One of the things this task force represents is an alternative type of problem solving, we want t-0 demonstrate to the world that it's possible to solve problems without setting up an adversary relationship,'' Bohan.said.

Editorial ASMSC President's Report

Interaction leads to understanding We no longer need to define racism. We have been shown examples that go far beyond words. I feel that the prime example, the big daddy of them all, is that of· Adolf Hitler and what he did to the Jewish people. This racism can be narrowed down from such a monumentally huge sickness to a simple ethnic joke. Racism is alive and well and kicking our fellow human beings each and every day just about everywhere. It's stupid. Can you judge a person by his or her physical appearance? Anyone with a small amount of intelligence can summon up enough logic to come to the conclusion that the old saying "You can't judge a book by its cover" is a rational, factual and obvious statement. Well, surely what can apply to an inanimate object such

as a book must apply ten times over for a living, breathing, feeling human being. At Metropolitan State College there are many races, cultures and styles. An incredibly diversified student body. In such a situation we have a tremendous opportunity to learn about our fellow humans. Our brothers and sisters of all races. Friendship and understanding can take on an even more expansive meaning in this student population. Expanding our awareness should be our goal for life. The expansion of awareness is a crucial part of our overall evolution, and our overall evolution and the direction it takes is the key to the success or failure of the human race. (Notice: "human race, not human races"). We should take advantage of

'~Light and I wanted this column to be light and lively, seeing as how this is the first edition of a new feature to be offered with some regularity inTHE METRO POLITAN. But after putting in full days down at the job, attending new classes in the evenings, and parting with my hard-earned cash at the bookstore, I'm afraid the shallow well of my creativity bas run about as dry as the dust on a dehydrated dromedary. (See what I mean?) So, I'll just give you the facts. You have a new student government in office this year and we're doing things a little differently than in the past. For one thing, we're funding this newspaper. Now THE METROPOLITAN represents students of UCD as weH as those of Metropolitan State College. A student government column was one of thQt items we requested during negotiations with THE METROPOLITAN prior to granting the newspaper $17 ,000 of your student activity fee monies. This column will replace the student government newsletter published last year. Our entire budgeting process for the 1980-81 school year was based on the results of a student-initiated referendum conducted last spring. At that time, students were given the opportunity to rank, in order of preference, six areas of student government activities. As one of the sponsors of that referendum, I'm pleased to

lively?''

report that the allocation of our $121,000 budget closely follows the preferences as expressed by the students. About your fees: Seven dollars of the student fee assessment goes to student government and the remainder of the fee money is used to retire Auraria Campus construction bonds. The student government portion has not increased in several years. Early in the summer, the CU Board of Regents was considering a plan to raise student fees on all CU campuses, including Denver, in order to reduce the deficit in the athletic program in Boulder. The UCD student government joined with student representatives from other campuses in voicing strong opposition to any such proposal. So far we have been successful in stopping the fee increase but the issue has not yet been finally resolved. More on this later. Should you be interested in learning more about the inner-workings of UCD student government, an excellent article on this subject may be found in the 1980-81 student handbook, available at newsstands in the UCD lobby. . And, by the way, welcome back to school. Mike Maxwell Director of Communications

the opportunity available to us at MSC. The opportunity for all races to expand their awareness through social interaction. Considering the above, it is logical to say that racism will cause atrophy (the opposite of evolution) of the human race! It is up to you as an individual whether or not you wish to be a part of such a negative and ~ destructive course for humankind. This year at M;SC, your student government is going to. be sponsoring various social activities for the entire student body. Our purpose is to make campus life at MSC a lot more interesting, to give. you the opportunity to your fellow students, and to assist in unifying the students. On our campus of many . diversified people where we can learn so much about..._. one another, I feel it is nothing short of crucial that we have a social life. Racism has no place at MSC or anywhere else in a progressively evolving environment. Let us hope that means the world. If you feel your rights have been violated by any faculty, staff, or administration personnel then I want• you to know that you can come to your student government for help. We are in Room 340 of the Student Center and our phone number is 629-3253. We are in the process of setting up a Student Advocacy System and I feel it is our greatest priority. We will stand up and fight for you if your rights are violated. Hopefully, you will never have to come to us with this • problem, but the reality is, it exists and must be dealt with by the Student Advocacy System (SAS). Sonny Wasinger ASMSC President

A steal at only $110,000

The University of Colorado will sell this parking lot for $110,000. The deal came down as part of an ,,. agreement between CU, Lawrence St. Venturers, Inc., the Denver Urban Renewal Authority, and the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development. The price was low because DURA statutes prevent CU from making a . , profit on the sale. The university purchased the lots from DURA in 1973.

i.

Not all the parking spaces will be lost. The developers will provide access for service vehicles, handicapped parking and parking for the . chancellor's office. In addition to the parking spaces, the Venturers will also landscape the undeveloped triangle south of the UCD buildings. In return, they will receive rights of first refusal should the Bromley Building and the triangle be sold.

MSC tutoring needs help, too ~ ...-~~~~-=-~~...,.----,----,--~~~-----,

I

by Carolyn Baird If you're a student who could use some free tutoring, or if you're a workstudy student who'd like a challenging job as a tutor, the Skills Reinforcement Center (SRC) is for you. The center, located in MSC's Administration Building, Room 211, provides free tutoring to MSC students on an intensive one-to-one basis. Students desiring a tutor need only stop by the office and fill out a request form to get an appointment with one of the ~ tutors. So far this semester, the SRC has 13 tutors available in English, journalism, math, human services, study skills and reading, psychology, and aerospace. Pending are two other positions for economics and chemistry tutors. · .r The center will have a total of about 20 tutors for fall, but has openings for 20 more, if the applicants are funded under Code 11 work-study monies, and if they are at least sophomores with a minimum GPA of 3.0 in their majors. Tutors needed most are in the areas of .,_ accounting, foreign languages, math and English. Another service at the SRC is the Learning Disabilities (LD) program, headed by Eva Dyer, the new acting director of the SRC. The program, which has received nation-wide attention, has :_ ~n impressive success rate with students.

Myra Bookman is the Learning Disabilities Specialist who will be processing referrals to the Learning Disabilities Program for this academic year. According to Dyer, the LD program shows a 90 percent retention rate for students and includes diagnostic testing to determine learning styles. The program also refers students to other special needs programs and offers seven courses for LD students throughout the year. One of those classes, English 190, has close to a 100 percent success rate for students when they progress to English 101 and 102 classes. Another such class, Spelling Strategies, shows an average increase in students' grade levels of 2.8 grade levels improvement in only four to six months. Dyer said "One goal for the SRC is to place more emphasis on helping students become more knowledgeable about their learning styles and developing alternative adaptive learning strategies." Another goal is to ''implement special need academic programs which will positively influence retention and maximize the academic adjustment of the MSC student to the institution." But apparently success rates aren't enough to fill the large number of requests sent in to the SRC. According to David Moore, SRC Instructor, the center faces two main problems. The first is lack of faculty support.

Though many instructors refer students to the SRC, many other instructors seem unaware the center even exists. "The faculty," he said, "could identify students who need help early in the semester and students who could tutor, and refer them to us." "It's immoral," Moore added, "to invite students here under open enrollment and then just let them

flounder around without any help." The second problem is funding. To fill the requests. the SRC needs $23,000, but is only allowed $10,000 - less than half the money needed. To compound that problem, there's 1 an administrative lag in getting the funding at all. Moore said even now the center isn't certain what its funds for fall continued on page 11

The high and rising cost of health care you see newsbriefs and specials about it on TV, read about it in the newspaper and experience it yourself as the bills arrive in the mail. The causes are multiple, the solutions.are complex and difficult.

body I

One of the factors in this complicated issue is health insurance. While some experts implicate characteristics of "third party payment" as one of the demons driving up costs, for the consumer, you and I, it still remains a protection against the financial devastation of unpredictable illness or accident. All full time (10 hours or more) Metropolitan State College students, unless they have waived the insurance because of other coverage, are covered each semester by a health insurance plan. Details of this coverage are available in a brochure which is distributed at the MSC Student Health Service - or give us a call at 629-2525 and we'll be happy to mail one to you. Filing an insurance claim can be a complicated procedure. Questions may arise, such as: 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? All of these answers and additional help in completing the claim form may be obtained at the Student Healtlt Service. Each full time student pays the $16.75 health insurance cost out of the student service fees that are paid with tuition. This money then goes to the insurance company, Southland Life of Dallas, Texas, and coverage begins the first day of classes. Claims, however, are processed through the Student Health Service, which acts as a liaison for the · student. QUESTION: May I sign up my child for health insurance coverage? ANSWER: Any student carrying 6 or more credit hours may sign up for optional dependent coverage for children, themself, or coverage for their spouse. It must be done during the first 3 weeks of each semester at the Business Office, deadline for this fall is September 22.

Fraternity Hosts Career Seminars Alpha Eta Rho, the MSC aviation fraternity, will host a series of.aviation/ aerospace industry seminars · beginning September 15. Fraternity spokesman Tom Stewart said prominent . leaders and key authorities in the aviation/aerospace field will discuss topics including pilot licensing and checkride procedures; what · to look for in job opportunities after graduation; airport and fixed base operation management; and flying opportunities in the airlines and military. The purpose of hosting the seminars is to acquaint aerospace students with the vast number of career possibilities , offered by the aviation/aerospace industry, Stewart said. The series begins September 15, with a new program every three weeks. The seminars will be held in room 330 of the Student Center.

UCD Special Senices Fund The U.S. Office of Education has given a second grant to the Department of Special Services at UCD, extending its program through 1983-84. The four-year grant will perpetuate such services as English as a second language, tutorial programs, counseling

and student advocacy. An area of , expanded service will include assistance and support services· for minorities, women and disadvantaged students interested in graduate programs at UCD. Information on Special Services is available at 629-8345.

Delayed Veteran's Benefits Officials of the Veterans Administration Regional Office in Denver have announced a possible delay in the mailing of checks for benefits received under Chapter 34, the Viet Nam era educational program. Veterans attending school for the first time this fall, who did not turn in a request for advance pay prior to August 10, should expect a delay in the payment of their benefits. First benefits ordinarily arrive on October 1, however a shortage of funds available for the program has forced a temporary cut-off in payments. Continuing veteran students whose precertification was not entered into the V.A. computer prior to August 10 may • also experience this delay in receipt of their checks. Students who received a full check for the month of August on September 1, should also receive a full check on October 1, since their award was already entered prior to the stop. These delays are due to the , allocation of funds made by Congress for the fiscal year 79-80, which fell short of actual needs. The V .A. has requested a supplemental appropriation to finish out the year and hopefully this will be received soon, so that all awards can be paid by the middle of October. y

Hews Union Station still on right t~ack Story and photos by Clinton G. Funk

I

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

It sits mostly quiet now at the lower end of 17th Street, a granite and steel monolith to Denver's history. Walking througb its cavernous interior one speaks in bushed tones so as not to disturb the fleeting memories of the millions who have crossed its threshold. Denver's Union Station is more than a building where the tracks meet - it·is a part of our heritage and will be a part of our future. Prior to the completion of the original building in 1881 Denver had several railroad stations, one for each of the lines that served the city. An earlier attempt at a Union Station built in 1870 at the foot of 22nd Street was successful and quickly became too small to handle the traffic.

(J

The 1881 building featured an Italian Romanesque tower made of brick that was somewhat similar to the D&F Tower. This building was largely destroyed by fire in 1894 and then rebuilt to its present appearance, a rather beauxarts classicism. The building is a wealth of architectural detail from its classic . columns to 1930's Art Deco remodels to the l 950's stainless steel soda fountain to the recently refurbished dining room. But what really makes the station so enchanting are the people and the trains. The peak times for the station were during World Wars I and II when the troop trains rolled through and more civilians traveled by rail because of gas and rubber rationing. Union Station was also a whistle stop for political trains which culminated in 1948 with Truman's 23-car extravaganza.

~1lESID£NT

SV.ttVICE

The 60's and ?O's have been a waning period for railroads in general and Union Station in particular, but things are looking a bit brighter. In 1975 the public voted not to demolish the station and it is now listed as a historic landmark. Amtrak leases the main floor from the six railroads (Burlington Northern, Colorado and Southern, Denver and Rio Grand Western, Santa Fe, Union Pacific, and the recently bankrupt Rock Island) tJiat own Union Station and reports business is up. "We serve 16,000 passengers a month," said Art Weber, Amtrak,station manager. "This is a 60 percent increase since 1976." "Although the recession is causing the increase, we're happy about it,"

,!·;. ,

Weber said. Amtrak has two daily trains, one eastbound and one westbound, and is not really in business to make money as it is · subsidized by the government. The Denver Rio Grand Western has three-day-a-week ·Service through Granby, Glenwood Springs and Grand Junction to Ogden, Utah. Weber says Union Station will make..a comeback in the 80s. · "It's already happening with restoration of the Oxford Hotel and the building across the street. New businesses are moving into the area. I don't know for sure, but I would guess developers have already approached the owners . about building a marketplace in the station like Boston's South Station," he said.

The business went over so well that today there are twenty-four varieties of fruit and cream pies with six varieties of cakes. Candy and cup cakes are also baked daily at the farm's bakery in Wellington and sent to the different pie shops in Denver, Cheyenne, Longmont and Fort Collins. _ The Mercy Farmers have hopes of opening another pie shop in the Boulder area, since students like the reasonable prices, the high qualtiy food and homemade deserts that contain no preservatives. · "We boast the best pies in the whole state and do our best to present a clean, friendly atmosphere,•• said manager Gary Fox. "Also we keep a .good rapport with our customers and strive to give courteous service." With the Auraria Campus so close, the Mercy Farm Pie Shoppe advertises in THE METROPOLITAN for students .who may need part time work. Fox felt it was a good idea because, "students are reliable, and perform the work well and are a good quality of people to work with." Fox is also flexible in providing hours for students. All of the furniture in the Pie Shoppeg are made at the farm's wood shop and the ston~ware pottery displayed around the store is hand-crafted at the Wellington headquarters. A full breakfast menu or continental meal is offered from 6:30 through 9:00 a.m. Dinner begins at 5:00 p.m. with fancy goblets table cloths and waitress service.

continued from page 7 are. "Academic Affairs," he said, "controls the funds, but the request has to go through the student affairs office, and that takes time." Because of this, early enough in the semester to train the tutors. Yolanda Ortega, Tutorial Coordinator for the center agrees the SRC is underfunded. "What good," she asked, "is the colleges' commitment to retain students if we can't support them while they're here?" Despite difficulties, both Moore and Ortega agreed the success of the SRC is two-fold: students who need help, get it, and students who want to help, get to. Both Moore and Ortega praised the dedication of the tutors, admitting, "It's the tutors who keep this thing going.'' One such tutor, Charlene Croley, who has tutored math at the SRC for one and a half years, acknowledged the benefits of tutoring. "It's good for my ego," she said, "getting all that positive feedback from both students and instructors, and having all that responsibility. "Students are so grateful when you help them .... it's simply not boring ... " Croley added that even more important to her was the reinforcement of her own math skills that she experienced through tutoring others in the subject. Another tutor, who wished to remain annonymous, . could hardly contain her enthusiasm for the job she said she'd just "lucked into." "I was wasting myself in a 9th Street Park office filing cards for a job when an instructor referred me to the SRC to

11

tutor." Since then (two years ago) she said she's experienced the luxury of feeling like a real professional. "I actually get money and respect for using my mind for once. But more than that, I get a kick out of helping students achieve.'' One student who really achieved with the help of a tutor is Cece Antonelli, a business major, who's gone to the SRC for the last two semesters for help in English. "You can really improve in your writing ability,'' she said: "I really grew having a tutor. I learned how to develop better paragraphs." As· a result of her efforts and regular tutorial sessions, CeCe received an 'A' in Engligh 102 an achievement she once worried wasn't possible. Another student, who declined to be named, received journalism tutoring on an occasional basis. "When I was thinking of dropping my class,'' she said, "I went to the Skills Center and discovered they were happy to help me. Because of that I was able to stick with it and salvage my grade." "You don't have to be dumb to need a tutor or get one," she added, "You just have to care enough to realize when you could use a little help.'' Students interested in receiving tutorial help, and those interested in · tutoring are encouraged to stop by the SRC as soon as possible, before the semester is too far underway, though applicants are usually accepted year around. Soon you may need to look for the SRC under a new name. A decision to change the center's name to t'1e Academic Improvement Center (AIC) is currently awaiting administrative approval.

~路路m~s~-Marx shows off in Bould~r ja~ I

--

by Emerson Schwartzkopf In the music business, performers get a break into the big time of limousines, Lear jets, and million-selling records about as often as an appearance by Halley's Comet. Local musician Richard Marx, however, may beat the odds against success by making his own breaks. To give his career a possible boost, Marx - a former member of the Chris Hillman Band - headlines an all-star jam session this Friday night in Boulder ... to sell himself. "The main idea," Marx said, "is to present my work to get me a record deal; to show me off." The move to sell himself as a song~ter-sir;iger, though, is just another stop m a musical career stretching as far back as Marx's memory permits. "I've always had a guitar," the 28year-old musician remembered. "I used to have one to just 6eat on since I was two years old." The product of a musically talented family, Marx said he decided to make a career out of music " since junior high, when I was playing pizza parlors and stuff." After playing in "bar bands" for a number of years, Marx got a taste of th_e big time in the mid-1970s - starting with a call from ex-Byrd Chris Hillman.

"I was living in Boulder," Marx said, ''and Chris was living in Boulder. He called me, and said he needed a singer ...and to come on over. After we sat and played for a bit, he said I could join the band - if I could learn 25 tunes by that night." Marx took up the challenge, performing with Hillman that night and for the next two years. Marx's work with the Chris Hillman Band included the recording of one album (Clear Sailin') and a national television appearance on The Midnight Special. Eventually, though, the traveling life of a touring band led Marx to think of other things. "Life on the road is fun," he said, "but it's nice to like to know what your kids look like at home." After his leaving the Hillman band Marx said he "pounded nails for awhile': in Denver and continued to work on his music as an individual artist. A recent break, however, came with a publishing contract with Famous Music, Inc. in New York - and the Colorado Star Jam concert. Marx, who describes his music as "sort of a mixed bag - I guess what they now call Adult Contemporary," notes ~ the music field today is suited to his style. .I "A lot of what I'm doing," he said, "is .~ continuedonpagel6 u.__~~~~~~~~~~~~___.:

'Teacher' in a class by itself by S. Peter Ouray-Dito

~

WHY SHOOT THE TEACHER . Starring Bud Cort and Samantha Eggar. At The &quire.

Few films have been able to combine supple, inspired comedy with a sense of grim reality as well as ''Why Shoot the Teacher." Set during the Depression in a remote, desolate corner of the Canadian plains, the characters and events of the film are intimate, human portrayals of what people do and what they are like. Max Brown (Bud Cort) is a young schoolteacher who takes his first job in a place where no one really knows why they need a schoolteacher. From the start, he r is treated as a needless requirement families help him only because they get a tax credit for providing him with food and fuel. Shown to a classic one-room schoolhouse, set in the middle of a vast snow and mud-covered plain, Brown is handed the side of a cow and a sack of potatoes, while the townspeople barely expect him to survive the winter. During all this, Cort plays a thoroughly bewildered Brown. And no one can do it better than Cort. His round, perky face, with arched eyebrows and weak chin,路 makes him look lik~ a perfect candidate to be stepped on. ..._. But Brown is a survivor. The first

day of school. Brown is late. All the kids are seated - about fifteen of them, from first grade to tenth - when Brown sticks his head through the trapdoor that leads to his underground home. A dab of shaving cream is stuck to his left cheek as he bumbles his way through introductions. Dut he has forgotten the timeless practice of beginning his tenure by writing his name on the blackboard. Finally, after everyone has introduced themselves a little girl asks Brown his name. A flash of recognition passes over Brown's face as he realizes he forgot his opening move. He nervously tells them his name and cracks his knuckles . The class is great. The children are exactly what you would expect from a village of the thirties. The boys wear britches and the older ones have that healthy farm-boy look that is so often seen as trite in today's society. Their actions and antics are very real - right down to pranks such as throwing bullets into the furnace and, in general, trying the teacher's patience to the limit. The intricacies of people's problems are brought in as a background to Brown's struggles. Harris Montgomery (Gary Reinike) is a goofy, fun-loving farmer who anxiously promotes a ''new political" - Communism. But his Communism doesn't seethe with

Bolshevik rhetoric; it is a small man's view and solution to a problem far bigger than he can imagine. Other effective vignettes help build an atmosphere that strengthens concern for these people. Brown has a brief, a'Ykward affair with Alice Field (Samantha Eggar). He first meets her with a slab of pork under

his arm and, later in mid-winter, when she is stricken with cabin fever, they meet again in the schoolhouse. The scene is soft and understanding of human desires. An oddly atonal score accompanies the short meet ing of souls that never consummates. continued on page 16

New wave from the Orient. YMO makes extensive use of computer programmed synthesizers

(what else would you expect from the electronics wizards of the planet?) and a new wave/disco beat to create quite an original sound. Overlapping the basic bass and drum rhythm section that doesn't do much but does it effectively, are a myriad of synthesizer sounds and computer noises that make you think you're inside a vast, rockin' computer bank. Another interpretation of new wave, I suppose. Cynicism aside, the album grows on. you, largely because of good arrangements of established Western rock-disco themes. For example, "Multiples" begins with a sort of Marlboro man TV theme lead and then cuts to a quick reggae. Some of the themes are vaguely foreign sounding, in the vein of Ennio Morricone. The lyrics are few and far between and have a distinct, Devo-like quality to them. GARY MYRICK AND THE FIGURES Myrick - vocals, guitar; David Dennard bass; Ed Beyer - keyboards; Jack White drums.

The songwriting is the real forte here, with strong hooks and a danceable beat. "She Talks in Stereo" is one cut that has already made the airwaves. It is a good representation of other cuts - if anything, Myrick rocks even more on and unadvertised.

You can't help notice it, whether you're driving to work or just running out to the store: we're literally all in it together. More and more people are taking advantage of more and more solutions to problems that face us all. Fighting back against rising automobile costs, congested traffic , and polluted air. Ask any bus rider-things are a lot more crowded these days. That's because so many more folks are Catching the Ride than a year ago. More and more people are buying their RTD tokens and monthly passes at Safeway and King Soopers. And

Albertson's sells tokens , too. Or participating in bus pass subsidy, vanpool or carpool programs where they work. And some independent souls have even taken to bicycles, roller skates or their feet to get a way from their cars. That's tlie kind of spirit that's going to help solve this area's transportation problems. At RTD, we call it the Spirit of the Ride. Because whether you Catch the Ride itself, or choose some other way out of the single-passenger automobile, you're h elping the public with transportation. And that's the Spirit!

But the cohesion Howe adeptly fills the holes in the sound and direction of the sound is solidly field with either short licks or shrill waves of sound, while Squire digs'into his trebly original. With a Moslem, Hawaiian anc! bass and White syncopates against the Irishman at work on this album, it is no total grain. The two newcomers have also had an surprise that it's as varied as it is. But on repeated listenings the album coalesces effect on the songwriting. The sound is more direct, with slightly less structure beautifully and is vividly listenable.

Atlantic SD 16019 *Yi On Drama, Yes have added enough new ideas to their sound that they feel as fresh as their first efforts back in the early 70s. Two new players alone, keyboardist Geoff Downes and singer Trevor Horn, aren't enough to make them sound like this. Veterans Steve Howe, Chris Squire and Alan White have taken stock of their talents and have assembled one of the most expressive and energetic Yes albums ever. If you could never get into Yes, though, don't bother with this one. Somehow the band reminds one of that brilliant, but ill-fated (in the U.S.) British TV show, The Prisoner. Downes is somewhat more imaginative than Wakeman, especially in voicing, and he certainly isn't as tedious

Simon's latest is no real departure from her time-honored N . Y. pop formula. Though her voice is as strong as ever, the excellent back-up band tends to overshadow her. Mike Mainieri, Ed Walsh and Larry Fast try to keep their brilliant synthesizer work confined to the intros and lead-outs, but even so, they are often more interesting than Simon. The songs consists of strong pop material but Simon's lyrics come up short on some of them. Her performance fluctuates from inspired to stale and she can't seem to break out of the arrangements. Cover art: Too much like Playing Possum. Recording: Good.

Director Silvio Narizzano weaves a tight, well-paced film. He makes good use of available light and cuts the fat off of scenes that don't need cumbersome visual introductions or endings. Despite this no-nonsense vision, Narizzano has an eye for humor. After the townspeople spend the night at the schoolhouse dancing and getting drunk, dawn comes showing them moving of through the windows with Brown sprawled over a bench in the foreground. Later, when the school inspector is astounded by "the worst classroom I've ever seen,'' he and Brown meet face-toface in a tightly composed scene.

hapless Brown staunchly defending his methods. "Why Shoot the Teacher" was made . ;,. and released in Canada and has reportedly become the second largest film there - outgrossed only by "Jaws." For its off-beat nature and European film techniques and casting, its success in Canada is mildly surprising. Unfortunately, in the United States this. warm and quite brilliant film will easily be outgrossed by the likes of "Smokey and the Bandit, Part 11" and "Prom Night.''

The musicians, featuring such notables as Firefall' s Mark Andes and Merel Bregante from Loggins and Messina, agreed to do the concert to help out, Marx said. "The music scene here," Marx, now a Denver resident, said, "is really small. ' The musicians know each other they're not competitive, and they help people." Mane hoped some officials from record companies will attend the all-star jam, but said he's not obsessed with becoming a tremendous success right away. "It's (his music) a real labor of love," he said. "You have to be happy all along the way. "All you can do is keep pursuing your goals."

by Bruce Riley

The MSC Women's volleyball team opens their 1980 season September 19 against Regis at home, but the MSC team that takes the court will be markedly different from previous squads. "We've lost some tall hitters we used to blow teams away with," said coach Pat Johnson. "Now we'll play a more defensive game, looking for openings, and playing a more thinking game.•' Half the players are returning and the other half are new. Some are just out of high school, where the game is played

Wetland series to premier

When the brackish waters of the Gulf of Mexico mix wi.t h the fresh waters of the Apalchicola Bay, one of the 't world's most fertile wetlands. This small region on Florid's west coast is a rich harvest for oysters, shrimp and blue crab. Watermarks, premiering Monday, Sept. 22, 10 p.m. on Channel Six, portrays the life of this area called "acre for acre the most productive agricultural . region on earth;'' and the people whose lives are fed by the river's pulsing waters. Watermarks also follows the proposed economic development of the Apalachicola - a straightening of the river that will provide for cheap barge traffic from industrialized cities in _ Alabama and ~eorgia.

differently. "These girls are not used to college play. It will talce time getting used to it," Johnson said. The team has already suffered an injury that will sideline Sandra Mayer, junior defensewoman and line hitter, for a few weeks. Mayer sprained her ankle during practice. Despite these problems, Johnson is optimistic about the team and the new season.

"I am really pleased with the great progress they have made. I see a lot of hustle and they're coming along fine. Assistant Coach Dan Hooper is doing an excellent job. I think we can be strong in the regionals," she said. The team has quite a winning trend to carry on. They won the regional title in 1977 and 1978 and came in second last year. Their records for those three years respectively were: 23-6, 34-0, 22-9. There will be matches on Sept. 19-20

at Mesa College in Grand Junction, Sept. ·23 at the Air Force Academy, Sept. 26 against Colorado Womens College at home, and Sept. 27 at UNC. Metro will also host a volleyball invitational tournament on October 3-4. Sixteen teams will compete including the. Air Force Academy, UNC, and out-ofstate teams such as Idaho State University. Admission is free for Metro students and Johnson encourages people to come out and support the MSC team.
