MSC elections to be held by Cindy Hosoya
I
Student government elections are being held Dec. IO and 11 in the Student Center but one elecJ.ion official doesn't expect voters to stampede the voting booth. These elections have a traditionally low turnout of voters, said Scott Woodland, election commissioner, compared to the spring elections which fare better because of the student government presidential race. The election is an important one though, and the student government offices are providing election .,,ackets containing: an election calendar; election rules and procedures; intent-to-run, campaign expenditures, and contestation forms. The packets are at the Student Center, in a folder on t'.ae door of room 340. The voting booth will be in the lobby of the student center and sample ballots will be available. Voters will elect three representatives for the Student Affairs "Committee and five representatives for the Curriculum Committee. The Student Affairs Committee - which will allocate more than $300,000 in.student fees to campus ,,,.
clubs and organizations - is comprised of six students elected at large from the student body. Three are elected during the spring semester and three are elected in the fall. Running for the open positions are Katie Linaris, Emerson Schwartzkopf, Leslie Morehead, Randy Golkin and William Leavitt. The Curriculum Committee is responsible for student input concerning the curriculum of the college, including new and revised programs, and graduation and basic studies requirements . There are 11 seats on the committee, representing all schools of MSC. The representatives from education, urban studies, and from health/physical education and recreation are elected during the spring semester. The seats being voted on this semester are for the representatives from engineering technology and from professional studies. David Travis is the only candidate for the science and mathematics seat and, according to Woodland, he is the only candidate for the Curriculum Committee. The other four seats business, engineering technology,
professional studies and humanities - are not represented, but candidates may be written in on ballots. Candidates elected by
write-ins must submit campaign expenditures and intent-to-run forms to the election commission to insure that they are eligible.

Coors in Mission draws protest 1-z::
by Randy Golkin
When administrators from the Student Center signed a contract to sell Coors beer in the Mission December 2, not only did they create a disturbance among students but almost started a riot. <: George Bailey, the assistant director of the Student Center, signed the contract thinking he was just conducting another business transaction. However, the students of the Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan (MECHA), .a Chicano organization oi;l campus didn't feel that way at all, in fact they were outraged. During a meeting Wednesday concerning this issue, a spokesperson from MECHA said "Adolf Coors represses minorities and we think Coors beer should be taken off this campus." --;.- Blair Harris, a CCD student government representative, asked Bailey why he didn't allow any of the student organizations to take part in the decision making process. Afterall, Harris continued "it's the students' fees that support your salary and the Student Cente;.." Bailey's reply was: "We provide a service to all students. What are we supposed to do if some students resent Budweiser, and others don't like Pabst or Schlitz, take those out of the bar too? We want to serve as many different beers as
possible so students can have .their choice." The Associated Students of MSC also supported MECHA. Fred Hopkins, vice president of ASMSC said, "This is not just an issue about beer, it's a controversial issue about human rights." By now many of the people at the meeting were l?eginning to boil over. The students representing MECHA threatened to boycott Coors. "If we have to boycott, we will have the entire
Chicano community with us. In fact nobody will be able to get into the Mission," said one MECHA official. It was just about this time when Dr. Anton.io Esquibel, vice president of MSC Student Affairs stood up and said, "I don't want to see any disturbances on this campus." The meeting ended shortly afterward and the students from MECHA marched down to the Mission with their signs. They protested and picketed the bar until
closing. All of the efforts and actions exerted by these students wasn't exercised in vain. The next morning the problem was resolved. The Student Advisory Committee to the Auraria Board requested that the Coors beer taps be removed from the Mission until the student population can vote on it or until the Student Center Policy Council deals with it.
AMC interim director not talking by William A. Struble When it comes to discussing the Auraria Media Center's new acting director, key personnel at CCD seem to be extremely busy. "I am very busy rigJlt now," Freeman Rader, the new acting director of the Auraria Media Center said last Friday. Rader said "I'll have time to talk to you in, say, a month," he said, adding he is more concerned with "performance than rhetoric."· Phyllis Schoonover, secretary for Thomas Gonzales, vice president of CCD, said, "he (Gonzales) doesn't want. to address that situation right now." "He is a very, very busy man," she
SHARP SURPRISES for the HOLIDAYS
said. Gonzales, in a telephone interview December 1 stated there would not be a new permanent director at the AMC until February. A search committee will be selected to review applications for the posted job notice. Gonzales said Rader is not a candidate for the position. Rader has taken the position of "full-time temporary acting director for the Spring term," Judy Zewe, CCD, management of compensation, said Monday. ''He started December l and could go to June 30," she said. "This (term) in turn could be extended, but June 30 is the end of the budget."
"He probably is looking at the whole structure at AMC," Zewe added. Rader has an M.A. in environmental design, and Ph.D. in communications. Zewe said Rader is highly qualified under the requirements of the job description.

Editorial Student Body Presidential Report
''Our accomplishments so far'' In keeping with our policy of trying to keep the students informed and having an open and communicative student government, this is our end of semester report to the students. These are some of the things we have accomplished thus far. -We quit paying 15 ASMSC Legislative Committee members $25 per month that each had been receiving. The resultant amount, $4,500 was put into an account called "Programs." The reason we did this: last year's total budget for ASMSC was $24,000, and $3,000 of this was put into Legal Services. This left a total budget last year of $21,000. Of this amount, $16,200 went to student government salaries. In our opinion this left too little for the purpose of accomplishing things for the students, so now, with the Programs account, this problem has been resolved. -We submitted a regular "Presidential Report" to the students through this newspaper. -We hosted a conference of student leaders of the colleges of Colorado in which we established a stronger rapport with the Consortium of Colleges and thoroughly discussed the various problems surrounding student fees. -MSC student fees total over $620,000 per year. The Student Affairs Board, which allocates this student money, consisted,of 6 students and S faculty for many years. We set a precedent giving students greater control over their student fees than ever before in that we were able to reduce the number of faculty on this Board to only 2 members. -We feel that each individual student at MSC has the right to vote on how his/her yearly $77 in student fees should be allocated or spent. Because of this we have initiated a referendum which will give all students of MSC (full or part time) the opportunity to express their vote during this coming registration period. Those who have registered by mail will receive the referendum in the mail. Walk-ins will receive it at the time they register. For once, you will truly have a voice in how your money should be spent. The Student Affairs Board will allocate the money according to the results of the vote! We feel that this is proper representation of the students. -We proposed the formation of a Joint Board of Academic Policies to make sure that the students and faculty alike have a channel of input before any academic changes in policy are made on this campus. -We invited Doug Tuthill, Chairman of the United States Student Association (USSA) to come here and see firsthand the busy streets which run through out campus and the parking problem here. He promised, after corning here and seeing it, that the USSA would lobby in Washington for the removal of the streets and for corporate grants to help pay the bond on the parking lots.
-We established three work-study positions in the student government office to help cut down on our overall expenses and at the same time help students who need work. -We held weekly meetings with President Macintyre. These meetings helped to produce the following: I. The student fees referendum. 2. Majority control for the students on the Student Affairs Board. . 3. Prevention of the cancellation of Winterim. 4. A new proposal for student health insurance. 5. Solid rapport with our student-oriented administration. -We made some small progress in the parking situation: next semester stickers will be made available to all Aurarians which will identify you as such. Then, prices for parking will be increased for non-Aurarians and will remain the same for Aurarians. -We expanded 路t he size of the student government, enhancing student involvement and permitting us to handle many different areas of concern rather than simply focusing on a couple of issues. -We held the Halloween Bizarre. It was the biggest social event in Auraria history. It set a major precedent in that it procured the gym for activities of that nature, not only for MSC, but for CCD and UCD as well. Also, it paid for itself. We did not need to subtract any money from our Programs account. It raised funds for eight MSC clubs. It got many students involved as well as faculty and administrators. It was a hell of a lot of fun for all those who attended it. It showed that the students of MSC are really taking the first steps toward pulling together and focused many eyes in the community on our campus, giving the impression that MSC is not only corning of age, but is beginning to take a deep breath of LIFE. -We helped sponsor the Walk-Jog-A-Thon, another great fund-raiser an~ big event which again got many people involved and raised much needed monies for several groups on campus. -We held a Health Insurance investigation, the results of which were printed in this newspaper. -We spoke out strongly against racism, we supported MECHA and UMAS in their boycott of Coors beer at the Mission and we wrote a letter to Governmor Lamm requesting freedom for Roy Foreman, a former UCO student unjustly imprisoned for a crime he did not commit. Believe it or not, we could go on, but suffice it to say that with all of the above, we still have spent under 200/o of our budget and we are halfway through the fiscal year! This means we will have enough money to do even more things next semester. We promise you that we will be very active next semester and will continue to do our best to represent you. Have a nice vacation! 路 Sonny Wasinger and Fred Hopkins

TOWER UCD Student Government News Dizzy Gillespie, the jazz great, came to town this week and he was brought to Denver by the UCD student government. Backed by the UCO/Metro Jazz Band and the UCO jazz ensembles, Dizzy Gillespie played downtown's Paramount Theatre Tuesday night. It was a big kick for our school's musicians to play with a true jazz master and it was a rare treat for UCD students to attend a performance of this caliber free of charge. , Of course, students paid for the Dizzy Gillespie concert with their student activity fees and it has been the policy of the present student government to return as much fee money as possible to the students. This was just one of a series of quality events being planned (or UCD by Jennifer Featherstone, director of Student Affairs and head of the events program. Jennifer got a lot of help from the UCD College of Music and jazz instructor Walter Barr who knows how to talk that jive talk to those big time music agents. This performance broke ground in a couple of areas. It ~as the first demonstration of the possibilities of a greatly-expanded events program. During a referendum last year, students were asked to choose how ~ they wanted their activity fees to be spent. Chosen as number one and number two priorities were "Student Organizations" and "Events." As a result, student government funded both of these activities at a level of $21,600. This compares to an events budget last year of only $5,500. The additional funds were made available by drastically reducing the amount of money spent by student government on itself. The second precedent set by the Gillespie concert was the association of the Auraria campus with an offcampus downtown performing arts center. There are no facilities comparable to the Paramount Theater on campus and Auraria needs to establish a relationship with organizations which can provide facilities for large events. It would be wonderful to stage events at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, right next door to UCD, but at this time the cost at DCPA is prohibitive. It would seem reasonable that a government sponsored facility such as the DCPA could work out financial arrangements with a government supported university whereby the university would provide its own technical support and services, thus trimming costs. So far no progress has been made. On another subject, student government is planning some major changes in its election process. We are formulating constitutional revisions which would install the new student government on April 1st, two months earlier than has been the practice in the past. This would allow for !l month-long transition period while school is in session and would give the incoming student government ample time to conduct budgetary hearings before continued on page 7

The members of the Black Caucus of Metropolitan State College have been watching and reading the publications of The Metropolitan and the Faculty Senate with increasing concern and alarm. It seems blatantly obvious that regardless of how the issues are promulgated that there is a disturbing indication of racism. The insidious attacks by certain faculty members on Dr. Rhody McCoy are of a flammable nature which may divide the campus and have a negative impact on our student body to say the least. These repeated attacks under the guise of information acquisition against Dr. McCoy are not cleverly concealing the true purpose of the attacks. We recognize the right of any individual or groups on the campus to question the motives of the President, but will not condone or tolerate the Gestapo practices of character assasinations and innuendos. The skewed results of the 1980 Faculty Association evaluation of MSC President Donald Macintyre only demonstrates how unaware or indifferent the faculty of this institution is of the attempts by selected "leaders" to degrade our minority personnel under the pretext of qualifications. Not once have we witnessed the concern · and pursuit by certain faculty members of other questionable practices at this college. The recent events surrounding the treatment of Mr. Bill Moland, former Dean of Students Ed Schenck, and Dr. Wilton Flemon received not one outcry of injustice from this paper nor the faculty. For several years, we have agonized over the lack of minorities in every area of this institution. It is inconceivable to believe that in the 1980's Metropolitan State is still a predominantly white male personnel structure - note the absence of Blacks and Chicanos at the Dean and Department Chairs Positions. There are departments within this college that have no minority faculty members and in some instances no women faculty. We have questioned in a professional manner the obvious discrepancies of Black and Chicano personnel on the grounds that there are no available minority applicants. The day is at hand when this type of overt racism will no longer be tolerated by the minority groups on this campus. Your efforts on behalf of Metropolitan State College might be best served by investigating the various programs and persons whose action are designed to exclude minorities . The Black Caucus

From the Tower · continued from page 6 a new budget is due on July 1st. Under the current system, the new government takes office during summer vacation when many people are unavailable for hearings and only one month before the budget must be submitted. Other constitutional changes would: provide some continuity from one year to the next among the people who decide the budget; make permanent the referendum in which students decide how fee monies will be spent; would eliminate four paid positions from student government; and would change the roles of certain positions on the Executive Council. These changes have been discussed with the UCO Chancellor, the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs and Administration, and the Director of Student Services. We are now seeking input and questions from UCO students about these proposed changes and any other changes which should be incorporated into a new consti. tution. If you would like to discuss such proposals with the Executive Council, please attend one of the final two Executive Council meetings before the Christmas break. Meetings are held Fridays at 5 p.m. in room 340 of the Student Center. And those of you who would like a part-time job, with real power to serve UCO students, maybe you should consider running for student gov~rnment in February. Mike Maxwell, Director of Communications

Holidays time for fun, football and shopping by"Michael Dann Hayes
I
December - a time for laughs, liquor, laziness and love until you realize that there are only 15 shopping days left before Christmas. Then the madness begins to set in. The multitudes of people, all of them trying to grab that one last sweater, or record, that is still on "sale." The lit.tle babies, that are all either crying or
sleeping, while the parents commit subtle acts of violence to get that last present under the tree. Well, all is not lost friends. As soon as all of this madness that is called last minute shopping is done be sure to pick up a bottle of good wine or a six-pack of expensive imported beer. You will deserve it by now. Invite a few friends over, after the wrapping is done of course, and
l
Christmas comes but once a year. .. so don't get caught up in the frenzy. Take a few minutes out to enjoy the beauty and fun that's a part of the holiday season. enjoy the relative peace and-quiet that bas ¡ again settled upon your world. Because that peace will soon be destroyed around New Year's. The house will then be invaded by the various football bowl games that seem to grow each year. The Rose, Orange, Sugar, Tangerine and the Alonzo Stagg Bowls
will all reach out and grab us where it hurts. And after the football games, ooohhh, the parties ... So enjoy the Christmas season with all its laughs, liquor, laziness and love while you can and have a very Merry Christmas and one very Happy New Year...
Senior.center is ¡a ''warm Port'' by Richard Perkins
Downtown Denver can be a cold, lonesome place for the city's street people. For senior citizens the problems multiply in terms of mobility, sociality, health conditions, and financial problems. But, there is a warm port in the storm. At 1411 Stout Street there is an organization called Senior Support Services. Even on a recent Indian summer day, when entering the premises I got the feeling of warmth and friendliness. To say that seniors are one of the most overlooked minorities in the country is probably a gross understatement. However Mike Anderson, executive director of SSS, and his staff are genuinely helping many seniors in the downtown area. The staff consists of usually six active people, some on graduate work and others drawn from the Denver County Department of Social Services. They serve about 80 to 90 people a day at the center. _ The activities are many, including bingo, ceramics, darts, arts and crafts, poker, and pool. They give out about 200 cups of coffee daily. Along with the Volunteers of America, they serve 30-40 meals a day to seniors not able to leave their hotel rooms and apartments. The center also has a food stamp program once a month where a representative comes to distribute stamps. In ad- 0 dition there is an emergency food bank ~ that will tide people over in cases of lost, Ci stolen, or late checks.
The center also runs mini-tours around town to places such as a museum and The Heritage Center. However, they do not have the capital to purchase a van or bus for trips to the outlying areas or the mountains. During the week - besides the delivered lunches - there is no lunch at the center. However, on Sunday the SSS puts out 130-140 sack lunches. These are prepared by various Catholic parishes throughout Denver. There are some 1100 carded members (no dues, etc.} of the Senior Support Services, which is mainly federally fun-
ded through Title Ill of the Older Americans Act. There is also city and county funding, and assistance provided by the Presbyterian Church, both locally and nationally. While most of the people who use the center are in the $201-$250 a month income range, 19 percent have no income. The 50-70 age group comprises 62 percent of center-goers, while 30 percent are in the 71 to 99 year old group. The four most typical problems are lack of finances-, health, alcoholism, and transportation. Senior Support Services is open to
persons age 55 and older, Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. and on Sundays from 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., the phone number is 893-8923. On my way out the door after my interview with Mr. Anderson I came across the SSS trophy case in the hall. They weri;: the Denver Senior Pool League champs in 1979. But that is not what stood out in the case. At the bottom there is an award that reads: SSS In recognition of unselfish dedication to improving the lives of senior citizens in downtown Denver. â&#x20AC;˘ For genuine concern and care of those too often overlooked in the hustle of a busy city. I guess the last line made me ponder that it would be nice if the award carried a van or bus with it. It seems that someone or some organization should see to it that these people in the twilight of life should have a greater opportunity to get to the mountains and observe other scenic wonders of the state, instead of the steady, steely cold of the city ..
UCD graduates honored UCD students who are graduating in December will be honored at a reception on December 18. About 400 undergraduate and graduate students are expected to complete their degree work this month. The office of Alumni and Friends will host the reception for the graduates, their guests, and friends from 7-8:30 p.m. in room 330 of the Student Center.

Al Hurricane lives up to his name ~I
byRandyGolldn
Mr. Al-Nawann translated his name to "Al" Hurricane· so people wouldn't have to describe him as the gusty fellow who's always storming about some fact _, or issue-his name says it all. rHurricane, a 46-year-old Arab descending from Iraq has always been an active man. In 1968, when this crusader moved into the Denver area, he was r~dy to support the just causes and demolish the corruption. Since then Hurricane has created *two non-profit organizations to protect the constitutional and civil rights of Coloradans. Action on Smoking Pollution is one of his organizations that began with an anti-smoking campaign in 1975. With _ this organization Hurricane proposes to limit smoking to a designated smokeroom or lounge in all buildings that are open to the public.
he plans on seeing the day when it becomes an enforced law. Hurricane, however, won't be satisfied until his A.S.P. proposal is a law. For this purpose the unpredictable determined Arab showed up at the Democratic and Republican conventions to get both smoker's and non-smoker's signatures on his petition. When speaking about the A.S.P. campaign Hurricane always says "stop and think before you stink." He is an exsmoker who quit after he really stopped to think about it. Now Hurricane couldn ~t smoke if he wanted to because the man has chronic asthmatic bronchitis. Hurricane said this respiratory disability developed when he was working for the State of Colorado's Department of Labor as a safety inspector investigator. In 1975 the department assigned Hurricane to the inspection of toxic
••
He expresses himself with these words; "I started on the smoking issue because I consider it hazardous to all people. After all, you don't take your pants off and urinate in the middle of the grocery store - you go to the bathroom - and I ask you if you have to smoke to please go to the smokeroom." · Many people think this witty, outj poken man is full of a lot of bot air, in fact, some despise him. On the other hand, a lot of Denverites listen to all the words be blows around because Hurricane is somebody who tries to support everything he says. This holds true for his A.S.P. proposal also. To Hurricane _the l\Pti-smoking campaign isn't just talk -
chemical and petroleum producing industries. After a few months of being exposed to these poisonous fumes Hurricane became very ill. "For two and a half years I couldn't do anything, I couldn't breathe. I couldn't even go out of my place and I had to seal the windows and doors and just breathe the purified air in my apartment." The state terminated Hurricane in 1976 for being disabled. He lost the job just one week before he would have been eligible for medical retirement. Now Hurricane receives monthly disability checks and is very upset with the state. Besides being the founder of A.S.P.,
Hurricane also started the Abused Tenants Association of Colorado in 1978. As a tenant himself Hurricane found that the state statute gives the courts the power to evict renters for no reason. Hurricane chose to use the judicial system to change this law. He said; "If the court declares a law unconstitutional then the legislators are for<:ed to rewrite it, and the only way you can accomplish this is with a specific case." Hurricane not only has a specific case but a personal one too. He is suing Kanover LTD, the landlords of an apartment complex located at 158999 E. 13th Place in Aurora, for violating his civil rights. The trouble began during the summer of 1979 when Hurricane was living on Kanover's property. That July he received a $100 rent increase and was shocked to find out that none of the other tenants received an increase. Hurricane came to the conclusion that they just wanted to get rid of him so he raised hell about it and was finally evicted. To this day Kanover claims the eviction was becaµse Hurricane refused to comply with the rules of management. Hurricane said, "Kanover is an unlawful corporation, they have threemonth leases which are a joke. A threemonth lease isn't any better than a onemonth lease because the landlord can evict you within 10 days, it's not until you have at least a six-month lease that they have to give you 30 days notice. "
Hurricane was informing his fellow neighbors of this and other facts about the landlords and they didn't like it. "Like most exploiters, facists and dictators - they wanted to keep their people ignorant," Hurricane stressed with real emotion. It is with this case that he hopes to get the Colorado Statute involving property owners changed. Hurricane is different from most Americans. Some think he is crazy why else would he do all of these things? The man doesn't get any financial rewards for being a tenant's rights advocate or for his A.S.P. organization, in fact he spends money on these community commitments. The motivation is instilled in his personality. "To me, as an American by choice, I decided to get involved because I care and enjoy doing it. I do it for the same motives that Jesus, Moses and Mohammed had, like them I choose moral wealth instead of monetary wealth," Hurricane proudly declared . Hurricane, who is never at a loss for words, continued to speak; "It is all influenced by my parents' way of bringing me up. Our family belief is that all human beings hailed from the _same tree and that nobody is better than another except by their accomplishments to the humanities. Maybe I can pass on this knowledge and experience to the younger generation. After all, you don't have to hold the fire in your hands to know that it burns."

Nms Stock show captured .pictorially . by Ron DiRito
Sandy Hume,-part-time photography instructor at UCO, bas just published Western Man, Photographs of the National Western Stock Show. Western Man culminates, for Hume, five years of documenting the stock show. He admits that the photos are "not a one to one display" of the show, but rather a "reflection of my own vision, nature and style, specifically
relating to me." For Hume, a Boulder native and instuctor at UCO for two years, the stock show is as "active as anything in the
-
area." Max Kozloff, former editor of Art Forum, wrote the summary essay for the book. Kozloff gives an Easterner's view of the stock show. Hume describes Kozloff's essay as an "alien view" of the stock show. Kozloff has never attended the show.

- Y.ou can't .h ang a produce sharp music with a listenable melody. Beat Crazy differs from Jackson's previous Look Sharp and I'm The Man
·by Emerson Schwartzkopf JOE JACKSON, TALKING HEADS, BLONDIE versus THE LISTENING PUBLIC Indicted this week: BEAT CRAZY/fhe Joe Jackson Band/ A&M SP-4837 REMAIN IN LIGHT /Talking Heads/ Sire SBK 6095 • AUTOAMERICAN/Blondie/Chrysalis CBE1290 Your Honor, this is a sad day for the general listening public. The four albums in the docket today supposedly represent some of today's better musicians; with one exception, these artists deserve exceptional punishment for their latest releases. The Joe Jackson Band deserves the court's reprieve. Beat Crazy comes as welcome relief from the garbage dressed up by record companies as "new wave"; this album is fresh, entertaining, and worthy of the court's mercy. From the first strains of Look Sharp's "Is She Really Going Out With Him," Joe Jackson has stood out as one of new wave's prime finds. His formal training.at the Royal Academy of Music, ;- blended with hard-driving rock, makes Jackson one of the few new artists to
albums with its bastardized reggae rhythms and extended song lengths. Although the court should note some selections go on too long ("Mad At You"), the new reggae sounds present in Beat Crazy take the album past the pop sound in the previous Jackson records. Thankfully, the new style still contains the skepticism found in other Jackson work. The soft pleading of "One To One" effectively counters the paranoic insanity of "The Evil Eye"; and
record, can you? "Pretty -Boys" is a deadly shot at the cute, flashy, pre-packaged pseudo-stars. You Honor, I submit Beat Crazy be spared prosecuting. Verdict: Acquitted. Joe Jackson has the misfortune of being lumped in with some no-talent idiots when new wave is mentioned; Beat Crazy is still pop, but acceptable. Your Honor, the prosecution doesn't know what to make of this new Talking Heads album, Remain In Light. By all indications, this album should be great. Unfortunately, it's boring. Let me explain. David Byrne (the head Head) and producer Brian Eno apparently teamed up to give us a slick new sound of Third World solidarity, mixing funk with new wave, in hopes of creating marvelous revelations. It didn't work, for two reasons. One, the mixing of funk with new wave thought and style is already here with George Clinton (Parliament/Funkadelic) and Rick James. Compared with these hip funksters, the Talking Heads sound flat with the monotonous tones played throughout Remain In Light. Second, the end result on Remain In Light is consistantly dull. Instead of forming simple "groove" pattern of funk forming a base for interpretation, the Heads play (with the sole exception of
a
"The Great Curve") complex robot music while Byrne babbles inane, intelligent-sounding lyrics with no meaning. Your Honor, Remain In Light looks like an attempt to be conceptual for concept's sake. I submit the Talking Heads are a snotty group trying to make us run headlong into an album of obscurity utilizing a style they themselves don't un: derstand. Verdict- Guilty of obstruction of purpose. The sentence is a new low-level producer, or a guest spot on a Billy Joel tour. Your Honor, the prosecution hopes continued on page 12

~-~~~ Lennon murdered in New York by James R. Laursen
John Lennon, who turned 40 October 4th, was shot in front of his home in New York at 10:45 p.m. Monday. Lennon was rushed to St. Luke's Roosevelt Hospital, 13 blocks from his home. Extensive attempts at resuscitation and massive transfusions were inaffective. "He was dead when the first shot hit him "because of the severity of the wounds, said Dr. Stephen Lynn of Roosevelt Hospital. There were seven wounds to his head, chest, and arm, with extensive injury to a major artery. David Chapman, 25, was taken into custody for the shooting. Residents in the area said Chapman had been standing in the vestibule of the Dakota apartment for some time before Lennon came home. It was also reported that Chapman, formerly of Hawaii, approached Lennon for an autograph Monday morning. Police called Chapman a ''local screwball, a kook." Lennon, who with the Beatles set the tone and style of 1960s music, had just released a new album, Double Fantasy. The album showed he was still capable of creating good music and lyrics. The album was a reward to his fans for following him through difficult times. In years past, John Lennon was
disillusioned and confused, said Geraldo Rivera, an ABC television correspondent. During 1973 and 1974, the United States Customs Office tried to prosecute Lennon for an obscure British marijuana case.
that he was thinking of leaving the Beatles four years before it finally happened. Lennon was coaxed out of seclusion after the break-up by Rivera to do a benefit concert for the Foundation for Mentally Retarded Children in 1972. The concert raised over $150,000.

Before coming to America, Lennon and Yoko 0Qo were blamed for the 1970 break-up of the Beatles.

SRorts路 Volleyb~ll team loses
a
chance to bid tor nationals by Bruce. Riley The MSC Women's Volleyball Team might have gone to the~W Div~sion .II, National Championships m Califorrua_1 Dec. 10-13, but administrative logic prevailect over the team's bid to play in the tournament. The story went like this. The first and second teams at the AJAW Regional Tournament at Colorado Springs on Nov. 21-22 were to go to the nationals. University of Northern Colorado took 1st place, Colorado College was 2nd, MSC 3rd and Air Force 4th. After the tournament, Colorado College announced they would not go to California because they did not place first This meant the MSC team could ap~al to the AIAW National Committee for the vacated playoff spot. The team needed the approval of Women's Athletic Director Jane Kober before they could make their appeal they did not get it. "They didn't qualify through the normal procedures, and they did not have a record of a national caliber team," she .said. "It would have cost about $3,500 to send them. I could not justify the expense, I had to say no. Everyone else involved in evaluating the team's request agreed with my decision." One veteran, Kathy Crusan, wished the decision was different. "I was a little disappointed," she
said. "I think we should have been allowed to appeal. We were willing to pay for the trip and drive to California. We worked hard during the season. It (the championship) was something to look forward to, a goal. But you have to go with the administration, the athletic director.'' Teammate Julie Buntrock understood the reasoning behind the decision but still would have liked to have gone. "At first I didn't like the decision," she said. "But looking back on it though, it was fair . We were not 路 up to the nationals. We played inconsistently. But when Colorado College dropped themselves out, we all thought, 'Wow, we've got a chance.' But that's the way it goes," she said with a ~hrug. Both women agreed that mconsistency was the team's biggest problem during the season. They said that lack of height and inexperience also hurt the team's performance. Despite the difficulties, the two felt it was a good season. "We had a good defense," Buntrock said. "We didn't get wiped away by anyone; we were in there. I've got no complaints." Coach Pat Johnson agreed with the players assessment of the team's weaknesses, but felt it improved throughout the season.
