MSC vets organize to upgrade image

I by William Alan Struble A veterans' club is being organized at MSC with the main objective of its members to attract more v~terans to ~e college, and help fulfill goals m education. "We're all here for one purpose, to better our lives," Dave Angus, president pro-tern of the Veteran's Council said. The organization wants to assist veterans at MSC in any way possible, he said, adding that if they can feel good about themselves this in turn will benefit '" the school, community, and veterans' club. Assistance will be given to members when problems arise related to the 1 Veterans Administration and any campus office of veteran affairs, Angus said. Members will be provided with in.-ormation on Veterans Administration and MSC adminsitration rules, regulations and guidelines. The organization wants to better the image of veterans on campus, he said. Some non-veteran students have a false perception about veterans, he said, '" explaining that there students think veterans are getting a free education. What these people do not understand is that the armed forces do not have a retraining program for those who reenter society. The GI Bill doesn't pay for a ~teran's whole education, but only a small portion, he said. This forces most veterans to look for employment while attending school. Angus said student veterans must

deal with an ever increasing number of changing regulations related to their education. For example, he said veterans must declare a major after completing 30 credit hours and sign a graduation agreement. This is an added pressure on veterans he said since not all students know w'hat they' want to become that soon. Civilians must understand that veterans have needs and desires just like anyone else, Angus said. The organization has about 25 members, but there is a need for people who want to get involved, he said. Two problems facing the group at the moment are the lack of a location to set up an-office and funding. Angus said the problem of obtaining funds this year stemmed from applying too late for student fund allocations. Angus said the group would like to apply for non-profit status in order to receive deductible contributions. "We are gearing toward veterans, but we don't want to discourage nonveteran students," he said. The organization would like to see disabled and handicapped individuals take an interest in the group, Angus said. Some veterans face the same type of disabilities as civilian students and could equally find understanding and open communication. For information related to the Veterans' Council at MSC, Dave Angus can be contacted afternoons ang evenings at 233-7824.

City finally gives Up street by Lynn Welch The City and County of Denver and the Auraria Board have reached a settlement after months of disagreement over a land exchange which has delayed development of the triangle north of the Science building. The board voted to accept the city's plan Sept. 8. The city, in a letter from Deputy Manager and City Engineer John Bruce, offered to vacate 12th Street between Lawrence and Speer Blvd. in return for the 12th Street right-of-way between Walnut and Wazee Streets and the widening of Lawrence from 12th to Speer. Right-of-way between Walnut and Wazee is needed to maintain access to merchants on those streets. Lawrence must be widened to create a right turn lane onto Speer. The lane will be needed to accommodate traffic increase from the vacation of 12th Street, according to the letter. The letter further stated the city would not deed land along Speer to the campus for landscaping because of the uncertainty of future needs for housing and transportation. The land could, however, be landscaped through a no-fee license which would be revoked only if the city needs the land. AHEC plans to close 12th Street to traffic after the city vacates it. The board was encouraged to do so by Executive

Director Jerome W artgow. W artgow described the safety hazard to students crossing. 12th on their way to the East classroom. "One of our students was hit by a car earlier in the year and had to be taken to Denver General," Wartgow told the board. The whole triangle between the Science building and Speer will be landscaped to make a pedestrian 'eddy.' Students will use the Arapahoe Street crossing to get to the East classroom. The Board's approval of the exchange leaves the city with the final stage of legislation in this campus improvement plan. The City Council must approve the no-fee license for landscaping and the vacation of 12th Street before work can be started on the 'eddy.'

Business fraternity solicits members · The MSC chapter of Phi Chi Theta will be sponsoring a membership drive from September 22 to October 7 in an effort to attract' new members to the business fraternity. Members of Phi Chi Theta will be selling Gold C books in the lobby of the Student Center during the dates listed above and will be available to answer any questions about the fraternity.

Student Body

Presidential Report

''What are we doing?'' My fast article raised some eyebrows. Good. People asked me " why in the hell did you pick racism and student advocacy as a subject?" Well, if they don't know the answer to that, it would be advisable that they open their eyes and look around. Racism exists on our campus. That article was directed to the racists enough said. Next question: What is student government doing so far? This year your student government is going to · prove to you that you have the right people up here. We have several projects happening at this time. We are investigating the Student Health Insurance Progi:am on campus and will be coming out with a very interesting article on the subject next week. Another eyebrow raiser. We are in the process of negotiating with certain people in order to start bringing some concerts to campus this year. Some names that have cropped up in these talks have been Bruce Coburn, Noel Paul Stookey (of Peter, Paul and Mary), Cliff Richards, Leo Kottke, a rock group called Toto, Dan Peek (of the group America), the Jacksons and others. We are investigating areas in which there have been possible rip-offs of the MSC student body; more about · that later. We have set it up so that we can meet with President Macintyre every week, alternating from his office to ours week by week. We are going to attempt to sponsor an event which will involve colleges and universities in Colorado and five surrounding states: this event is a major speech by John Anderson, the presidential candidate. We are setting up special fund raising events for all the clubs and organizations on campus, one of which is the "Bizarre," coming October 25th, so hang on to your hats because it will be by far the biggest event in Auraria history. We are in the process of working things out so that the students will be able to vote on the allocation of the student fees next year (about $450,000) during the registration process. We are looking into a real mess known on this campus as the Media Center of Auraria, which has been a mess for some time but no one has known quite how to straighten it out... we're going to do everything possible to straighten it out asfast as possible. We are setting up a Student Advocacy System (SAS) which will handle student complaints and violations of students' rights. We have already cut the $25 a month stipend that 16 student government committee members were receiving that amounted to $5000. We took this money · ahd put it into an account called "Student Programs" for the purpose of doing good things for the student body this year. We arc about to start an investigation into the parking situation on campus (the question comes up in my mind: the parking lots were purchased at one set · price years ago and that price has not gone up. Why, then, have parking rates gone up, and why did parking fines go up 660/o last year alone, and where do they get off towing our cars, and why do off campus people from downtown pay the same prices as students and because of this why aren't parking stickers issued to students, faculty and staff to set them apart from these people so we can pay less to nothing and they can pay more? Etc.) · We want to improve drastically the faculty . evaluation system which, as far as I can tell, is at this ,time totallyuseless. · We want a radio station on campus and are going : to see how we can get one. •We are going to work closely and have already started :working with the.Public Relations Department on · campus to keep tabs.on all PR and to get more PR going for all campus events, including artistic events, athletic ~events~ etc:

We are heavily involved in a Jog-a-thon fundraiser scheduled for October to raise money for the students. Past Jog-a-thons have raised many thousands of dollars on other campuses, so why not us too? We are opening lines of communication with all facets of the administration and will soon be doing the same with the faculty senate. We intend to set up a 24-hour hotline so that students can always reach us with their complaints, ideas, suggestions, or party invitations. We have created three new work-study positions in our office so we can handle the load created by all of this. At this time we have the largest student government in Auraria history because we want to get the students involved as was one of our campaign promises, and because in order to do all these big things it takes a big student government (and it's getting bigger every day and you are invited to join the fun). We have talked to the owners of Thirsty's and together we will sponsor some school parties ~s year. We have opened lines of communication with the Rocky Mountain News so we can get their coverage on issues important to us for the purpose of getting Auraria into the public eye to help raise our image in the state. We want to change people's attitudes from "MSC will admit anyone" to "MSC will give anyone a decent chance to prove they are serious about college." We are working on getting bands at the Mission on both Thursdays and Fridays. We are beginning an investigation of the Financial Aid Program on campus and are getting ready to establish a "Financial Aid Advisory Board." I could go on, but that's enough to start with. Besides, my allocated space for this article is running out. Upcoming articles: Student Fee Breakdown (to make it real clear to you where your student fees are spent). The Parking Investigation, :The Health Insurance .. Investigation, and many other things that I, as a student, know you will find interesting. There are many more things we are going to do, but, hey, this is, after all

(as I write this article), only the second week of school. Okay. Have a dynamite week. Sonny Wasinger Student Body President

Letters UCD positions available On behalf of the Executive Council I'd like to welcome you back and wish you a good and successful semester. At present we are trying to fill a number of "' our committees and positions and we encourage you to apply for these. For example, we are in need of people to fill two positions for one of the UCD programs, Legal Services. There are openings for a secretarial position and the Directors. Historically, we've been able to save money by having these positions filled with persons on work-study. We still encourage work-study ~ students to apply for these and for those who are not on work-study, and are interested, we encourage them to apply for no need work-study. If you are particularly interested in the directorship then send a short resume c/o Ms. Barbara Stark, Esq., Legal Services Program, PO Box 83, 1100 Fourteenth Street, Denver, Colorado, 80202. ,. As I mentioned, we are in need of students to fill various committees. There are three boards that need a student who is interested in representing UCD. These are the SAC (advisory council to Auraria Higher Education), the SSPC (sets policy for the student center) and the Legal Services Board. All of these need one person so please apply. The best way to do so would be to ( send a short statement to us explaining your background and why you would like to fill that particular position. Send it to me, Tom Haukaas, ASUCD Chairman, PO Box 83, 1100 Fourteenth Street, Denver, Colorado, 80202. Tom Haukaas ASUCD Chairman

However, should they resign, it would be difficult to replace these highly qualified physicians by offering other prospective physicians a below-standard hourly salary rate. Student Health Service usage figures show that' 25% of the student body are patients and a much larger number routinely contact the clinic to utilize other services (ie. assistance in insurance claim processing), not the "six to ten percent of the student body" as quoted by Sonny Wasinger, ASMSC President. The Student Health Service now sees UCD students on a prepaid fee basis. This program was intiated due to the high number of daily inquiries by UCD students to use our services, thus we are primarily meeting a need for the UCD student and secondarily, supplementing our funding. The point of the nurse practitioners doubling up on their work is no( that they're unwilling to assume additional duties but that it's not cost effective to pay a nurse practitioner to perform cleaning functions when they could be seeing patients. We are cap~ble of handling more students and are not "hard pressed to handle more people" at the current time. The cutback has affected some services (ie. discontinuing evening hours) but has not affected our ''performance.'' When reduced monies affects quality, such as the inability to attract qualified professionals or lack of supplies/equipment to perform a task, we will not remain open. We cannot justify below par health care for budgetary reasons. Betty Jo Collard, Director MSC Student Health Service Mignon Murphy Administrative Assistant MSC Student Health Service

Racism perpetuated We wish to congratulate Sonny Wasinger for putting Auraria's student government on record against racism. ("Interaction leads to understanding," in your September 10 issue). We agree that racism is the single most destructive aspect of human social relations - and the most irrational. However, it is important to r~ognize that racism is not simply a set of ideas: racist ideas are perpetuated because a very small minority of society - namely, the bosses of the big banks and corporations - benefit materially from the systematic oppression of people on the basis of their "race," color, national origin or ethnic background. Racism is a strategy by which those whc;> own and control the wealth-producing capacity of society keep the rest of us scrapping among ourselves for crumbs off the table. Divided along lines of race, working people and students cannot fight together for better wages and working conditions, better schools, housing, and medical care. Instead, we get unemployment, lay-offs, cutbacks, and war, while the bosses laugh all the way to the bank. That's why we need a multiracial organization to build multiracial unity in the fight against racism. We invite students, faculty and staff at Auraria to share their views with us. We urge people at Auraria to join International Committee Against Racism, a multiracial organization of workers, students and soldiers fighting racism on the job, in the schools and in the military. Auraria Committee Against Racism meets Sept. 17, 7:00 pm, Student Center Rm. 256; call 320-0565 for further information. Auraria Committee Against Racism

Health Service clarifications This letter is to clarify and correct some of the in.. formation presented in the article "Student Health Center Faces Budget Shortfall" of 9/3/80. Although we are currently facing a severe budgetary problem due to lack of adequate funding from student fees, the MSC Student Health Service will continue to maintain a high quality level of professional health care to patients as long as the clinic is able to remain open.

More importantly, however, the new attention to the character of urban cowboys brought by the film created an upper level of strata in the movement. As informal dancing to radios and 45s in the ghettos led to the world of elegant Studio 54 discotheques, the urban cowboy has the higher level of Cowboy Chic. Locally, the appearance-of Cowboy Chic - with $50 shirts, exotic-leather boots, and sports cars (replacing the cowboy's ol' pickup truck) - came fast. Discos such as the Sportspage, Club Soda, and Bogart's in Glendale suddenly became Rodeo, Urban Cowboy, and Chaps. The platform heels, overnight, grew spurs.

He's seen Cowboy, the Dallas version of Cowboy Chic (Denver' s Rodeo claims the same owners), and Gilley's, the sprawling Pasadena, Texas bar where Urban Cowboy takes place.

In his store, Tom notes, sales of country records recently increased dramatically. "We're even selling Merle Haggard," he says, laughing. Lisa, after watching some of the couples dancing during the previous set points out some persons formerly of th~ disco set are going with ease. "You know, the basic disco steps," she says, "are basically western swing with a bigger beat." ' To some, though, the move from disco to urban cowboy is just tagging a fad. ' "It's bullshit," says . Fred, who is currently in the process of being stood up for a dgte by a "girl from Dallas." "I've watched it,'' he says, "when disco was popular, everybody was Joe Disco. Now, they're Joe Cowboy. "It's a joke. It's just people being swayed by a fad." To highlight his belief in the · ludicracy of the urban cowboy, Fred says he once went to Rodeo with an Englishstyle duster cap. At the club, Fred says he was told to take the cap off - even

though, ironically, the cap was made by Stetson. Meanwhile, Shotgun Willie's begins to pick up. As the band goes into its next set, dancers - beginning to feel the effect of their third drink - slide onto the floor to swing their partners. In small groups, persons start to fill the club. A blonde attired in a low cut tank top and blu~ corduroys, attracts attention by bouncing her ass off a barstool to the beat of "Living on Tulsa Time." No one, though, shows up in full cowboy regalia; even the cowboy hats are few in Shotgun Willie's this Sunday night. For tonight, as every night, the concern is always the same: booze, music, the opposite sex, and a good time, regardless of urban cowboys, Cowboy Chic, or whatever. To test Shotgun Willie' s authenticity, Vicki, an accountant, brings up one factor. "If this is really a cowboy bar," she says, "there's got to be a rubber machine in the men's bathroom." An inspection of the men's room turns up no rubber dispenser-. Some traditions - and lifestyles - die hard, but they do die.

Paraphernalia law overturned

-

by Karen Breslin Colorado's anti-paraphernalia law has been overturned by U.S. District Court Judge Finesilver. The law shut down headshops throughout the state and made it illegal to sell, purchase or own so-called drug paraphernalia. But business is back according to one head shop owner. Greg Porter, owner of Home Sweet Home, said business is back to where it was before July, when the law was put into effect. "We're just glad that justice is done for right now," he said, "But we realize we'll probably have to fight it again." The vagueness of the law made it difficult to determine what was legal or illegal, according to Porter. "Boulder (dealers) could sell everything except water pipes," he said. "But we could only sell scales, rollers and papers." · Enforcement of the law was left to individual local officials and varied throughout the state. The law was initiated by the Jefferson County PTA and was sponsored in the legislature by Rep. Kathy Spelts (RLittleton) and Rep. Dorothy Witherspoon (D-Lakewood). The PTA believes paraphernalia shops to be "learning centers" for young children, according to June Dellinger,

president of the Jefferson County PTA. Dellinger said they plan to reintroduce anti-paraphernalia legislation with Judge Finesilver's revisions to make the bill constitutional. "Judge Finesilver is in favor of it (the bill)," Dellinger said, "And that really pleases us." Dellinger said she is uncertain if Spelts and Witherspoon will again sponsor the legislation. "We want it to be nonpartisan.. .we'd like it to be endorsed by several legislators." Dellinger said they understand better what it takes to make a bill constitutional and believe the public favors the PTA's efforts. "The parents and average citizens are really against paraphernalia,'' she said. "We're not discouraged."

by Sal Ruibal Chuck Morris sits behind his massive desk at Feyline's swank suburban head- . quarters toying with a pile of sharpened yellow pencils. His fingers roll the pencils back and forth, over and over. A bearded cherub in casual clothes, Morris has a white telephone glued to his ear. He is talking to Billy Joel's manager. Big names are not dropped at Feyline they fall from the sky. Suddenly the phone conversation is over and Morris wheels around. "Ah, now where were we? Ah, yeah, 1972. November 6th, 1972. That was the night I quit at Tulagi. Yeah, I had some differences with the owner, but that's old stuff. Lemee see, that was the night of Ry Cooder, yeah." · In Chuck Morris' world, important moments are marked by the name of the act he booked that night. During his tenure at Boulder's famous Tulagi, Morris booked Linda Ronstadt, Randy Newman, The Eagles... the list goes on and on. Many important moments, but Morris was Looking for something even better. He decided to take a chance. Although he had never met Barry Fey in person, and his two previous telephone encounters with the rock entrepeneur were under hostile circumstances, Morris considered Fey to be the best promoter in the country. "I called him and the first thing he said was 'What the fuck do you want?' That's just die way he is. But he listened. He came up to Boulder and I told him I wanted to open a club. He said 'Find a club, I'll put the money up.' I mean Barry Fey did this for me sight unseen!" Fey and Morris converted Marvelous Marv's, a downtown Denver club, into Ebbets Field. The club was named after

" 'Find a club, I'll put the money up.' I mean Barry Fey did this for me sight unseen.''

the stadium where Morris' beloved Brooklyn Dodgers played before they moved to Los Angeles. The success Morris enjoyed at Tulagi was repeated at Ebbets Field. ·"We opened on February 3rd, 1973 with the Mark-Almond Band. Over the next three years we had Marshall Tucker, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Peter Frampton, Robin Trower, The Outlaws ...some tremendous acts. "But Barry was getting bigger and bigger. One day we decided to sell the club and I came to work as a vicepresident at Feyline.'' In 1979, however, the duo decided it would be wise to establish a smaller venue to start off new acts. ''The baby acts of today are the superstars of tomorrow,'' Morris says. "The day of the 250-300 seat club was 9ver, though. We wanted to open a legitimate-size theatre.''

'Rainbow' maker

Fey and Morris purchased a suburban theatre in Southeast Denver and converted it into the amazing Rainbow Music Hall. "That place was made for rock-androll," Morris says. They added a $100,000 sound sy~tem and threw in another hundred grand in improvements. "On January 26, 1979, we openc;d the Rainbow with an old friend, Jerry •Jeff Walker. Since then we have had every type of act from Bob Dylan to Barry Manilow.'' The Rainbow's fabled sound system is appreciated by both performers and audiences. "They love it," Morris says. "Willie Nelson said he wishes he had a system like ours to take on the road. Bob Dylan did not want to play here because he never uses a system that is not his, but he sent his sound engineer out here and the guy went wild over it. When Dylan played the Rainbow, it was the first time in 12 years he used someone else's sound system." Several groups have recorded 'live' at the hall, including Point Blank and David Bromberg.. 38 Special have recorded an album, Live From the Rainbow. Morris is especially excited about a benefit concert for Senator Gary Hart booked in the hall on October 11. "It will be an acoustic ~vening with Jimmy Buffet, J.D. Souther, Dan Fogelberg and Joe Walsh," he says. "I expect it to sell out in three hours." From Tulagi to Ebbets Field to the Rainbow Music Hall, Chuck Morris has pushed for the best.

B~52~s bomb, by Emerson Schwartzkopf

Reviewed this week: WILD PLANET/The B-52's/Warner Brothers BSK-3471 .. DIANA/Diana Ross/Motown M8936Ml I'VE GOT SOMETHING TO SAY /David Allan Coe/Columbia. JC-

36489 Of all the American New Wave bands ~o receive national attention, the B-52's qualify as the most distinctly bizarre group. With a style of music approximating the sound of Vesuvians reproducing sleazy 1960s rock and roll and the looks of refugees from a go-go club - this quintet from Athens, Georgia captured a cult following with their 1979 premiere album, The B-52's. Now, with Wild Planet, The B-52's are another proof of a sad fact of new music . .. boring repetition. The problem of Wild Planet is its similarity to The B-52's. All of the same nuances of the first album - the Mosrite guitar with two strings missing, vocalist Kate Pierson's owlish chants, and the always danceable beat - remain on the second record, with no discernable changes.

Ross off Coe goes,

Of the songs themselves, much of the material is little different from last year's album. The odd sci-fi story of 1979's "Rock Lobster" repeats itself in "Quiche Lorraine"; the legacy of cruising in the South becomes old hat in a number of songs; and, in general, the oddness of the band's sound diminishes · the second time out. Wild Planet, though, does have some high points; "Private Idaho" (said to be "about a state of mind") stands out above the usual B-52's fare, and "Give Me Bae.le My Man" is a haunting recreation of the old "girl group" sound circa 1963. For all their pretentions, The B-52's fail to be original on Wild Planet, and instead carbon-copy themselves on an unimaginative album. If this album has one saving grace, it might be that it's got a good beat for dancing. Another album with the ol' dancing beat is Diana Ross' new release, Diana. However, the album could use another title: Diana Rois Goes Chic. For her latest effort, Ross is produced by Bernard Edwards and Nile Rodgers, the masterminds behind the sounds of Sister Sledge, Sheilah and B. Devotion, and Chic. Using a combinatiori of choppy guitar and bass, heavy background vocals, and sparse

'

string accompaniment, Edwards and Rodgers created a disco-minimalist- sound with pleasing - and profitable - results. Their production of Diana Ross is Chic-sound straight down the line, with the result of Ross scoring her first Number One single of the Eighties ("Upside Down"), and potential for a few more off the album. In this formula of success, however, there appears serious artistic problems. Since the release of the first Supremes singles in the early 1960s, Diana Ross evolved from the lead voice in a Motown girl group to a headlining entertainer. In almost all of her work, there is the effort, the striving for excellence to bring her to the top. This effort is absent from Diana. Instead of a Diana Ross performance, the album is basic Chic - with Diana Ross plugged into the main vocal parts. Unlike the collaboration a few years ago with Dionne Warwick and The Spinners, Ross and Chic fail to merge distinct styles into a new sound ..•and end up with a collection of pretty-sounding, hitbound, and ultimately dull songs. C'est Chic, c'est R~, c'est la vie. Although The B-52's and Diana Ross fail to be inspiring with their new ;releases, David Allen Coe's I've Got Something To Say, at least, shows effort. Coe, the last of the undiscovered country

outlaws, has something indeed to say: Everybody ought to give me a listen. On the album's liner notes, Coe explains "the time has come to make a few ... records for the radio guys." Something To Say probably contains Coe's most marketable material in his career; and, with this release, he sacrifices none of his style for profits. Although lacking Waylon Jennings' dramatics of Willie Nelson's warmth and -.. continuity, Coe's music shows some of the darker and seamier side of the country outlaw - the jails, the busted romances, and bad shots of booze. With Something To Say, Coe reveals this part of country music with an excellent mixture of rock and pure country twang. Utilizing a varied cast of musicians

(Kris Kristofferson, Dickey Betts, "Sneaky Pete" Drake, and Bill Anderson), Coe produces a slate of upbeat, down-home-honest country music. The highlight, for those who can enjoy country steel and fiddle, is Coe and George Jones slugging out a hymn to rotgut whiskey, "This Bottle (In My Hand)." . Of the three albums up this week, Coe puts some life into his work, with the others showing signs of lazy profiteering.

Hitchock films featured at DCC ·by Terron Hutt

The month of September marks a big event in the world of local film buffs, as the Denver Center Cinema plays host to the late master of suspense, Sir Alfred Hitchcock. Through Sept. 30, th~ DCC will present "The First Twenty Years," a look at most of the films Hitchcock directed in the first two decades of his career. Hitchcock is one of the few directors whose name alone attracts the general public to his films. Besides the popular appeal of his films, Hitchcock is remembered for the two anthology series he produced and hosted for TV - "Alfred Hitchcock Presents" (1955-62) and "The Alfred Hitchcock Hour" (1962-1965), now seen on independent stations through syndication. Hitchcock was the recipient of the American Film Institute's Life Achievement Award in 1979. The DCC film series includes many of Hitchcock's British films that established his international reputation as a master of the thriller genre. Included in the final two weeks of the series will be such films as Sabotage and Shadow of a Doubt, both detective thrillers. Also in the series is Rebecca, Hitch-

cock's first American movie. Rebecca is not a thriller but an adaptation of a Daphne du Maurier romantic novel that the director turned successfully into a suspenseful psychological drama. Rebecca relies more on camera ·movement than on the familiar cutting techniques Hitchcock is known for. Rebecca won the best picture Academy Award for 1940 and Hitchcock was nominated for an Oscar as best director. The Farmers Wife and Manxman, two silent movies with piano accompaniment by Hank Troy, are also scheduled. This is a chance to see many of the famous stars who had the honor of working with one of the most gifted directors to work in the film medium. Laurence Olivier, Joan Fontaine, Cary Grant, Peter Lorre and Maureen O'Hara are some of the actors starring in this series of films.

The DCC is unique in that there arc only two other cinemas of its kind, the American Film Institute at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C. and the Museum of Modern Art in New York. The DCC is open every day and programs all forms of film work including art, comedy and drama from Hollywood and independent film chains.

Accor.ding to publicist Penelope Nelson, the DCC shows "from 55 to 60 films per month ... about 600 films a year." The DCC features matinees on Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. Memberships are $15.00 a year and $25.00 for two people who live at the same address. Membership benefits include a subscription to Premiere, the DCC program guide, as well as invitations to special

events, sneak previews and guest speakers. Members may also purchase tickets a month in advance. Ticket prices are $1.75 for members and children, $2.50 for seniors and students and $3.00 for non-members. On Wednesday, all matinee tickets are only $1.75. The box office number is 892..()1)83. Students interested in an internship with the DCC should contact UCO Co-op Education.

orts Cross country team runs against odds

UCD Chancellor calls for in-house audit

I

by Bruce Riley Led by their new coach, Brian Janssen, MSC's Cross Country Team will begin its 1980 season September 13 against Western State College in Gunnison. Janssen, a former track and field coach and graduate of WSC, talked about the team during a recent practice: "Out of the seven guys we have, six are freshmen," he said. "They're used to running three-mile races in high school. .. they'll have to get used to the five-mile ' college races.'' Losing members to such gremlins as ineligibility and transfers has plagued past MSC cross country teams, but Janssen hopes this tendency will change. "We'd like to establish continuity. I'd like to work on training and ) developing them (the team) during the four years they are here," he said. Janssen feels he has the best cross country team in MSC's history but lacks personnel for a second team. "We'd 'love to have more people, men or women. We might be getting one woman soon," he said. "Even if a student doesn't want to join the team or is ineligible, we still welcome them to come out and train with us." Practice is on Monday and Wednesday at 7:00 a.m. and on Tuesday and Thursday at 2:30 p.m.
