Child care du~ks.- budget cixe by Joan Conrow

The Auraria Child Care Center's evening program will remain open through the Spring semester, following a pledge of funds from the Student Center's budget. The CCC had planned to discontinue the program February 12 because a $3,484 deficit will be incurred by running the session at current enrollment through the semester. However, the Student Services Policy Council - acting on a proposal suggested by Associated Students of MSC President Sonny Wasinger - voted unanimously February 9 to pledge $3,500 from the Student Center budget. The funds will be transferred to the CCC evening program at the end of their fiscal year (June 30), if necessary. Wasinger said, "MSC was opposed to spending student fees for something already on our student fee budget. We don't want to set a precedent." However, he also said he was "adamant that the (evening) program should be continued." So, to keep the program open without further direct subsidies of student fee monies, Wasinger

suggested the transfer of funds "What if it (enrollment) drops from the Student Center budget. way down?" Wartgow said. "Do Gary McManus, director of the we drop the evening program?

The CCC needs 30 FTE (full time equivalent) children enrolled in the evening session to avoid the deficit. According to a statement made earlier by Jerry Wartgow, executive director of the Auraria Higher ·Education Center, the number of children currently registered for the program is ''way below the 30 needed.'' Wartgow said he agreed with the idea of transferring the money at the end of the . fiscal year.

Wartgow asked the SSPC. "I think the responsibility is on the parents who are using the evening program to get out and hustle to keep the enrollment up," Wartgow said.

Media Center may go to UCD • Library

~~~-,-~-=-=-~=a:--~--,

by Michael Dann

ayes

The Colorado Com.mission on Higher Education has recommended the Auraria Media Center, currently administered by the Community College of Denver - (Auraria) be transferred to the control of the Library, now governed by the University of Colorado at Denver. On January 28 the CCHE recommended the AMC responsibility be transferred to the Auraria Library. "The Library is logical as a choice," ¥said Charles Manning, who presented the proposal to the Colorado General Assembly. "The Director, as it stands now, has to go through three schools to not only find out where he is going to get the money to run the center, but also to find out where the money he gets is - going." At this time the AMC is under the jurisdiction of CCD-A, the P .E . R. building gym is under control of MSC, and UCD runs the Library. This has been the agreement since the inception of Auraria. Problems with the AMC seem to have reached a height when a consultant firm conducted an' ap<lli of the center. In that report, a reference was made concerning the lack of service to Auraria campus students. The audit further stated ''the - placement of theMedia Center was inap-

propriate, since CCD has the smallest enrollment of the three colleges, is the lowest user of the center, and treats the center as a low priority.'' According to the report by CCHE, recommendations range from ''reorganization, to transferring control of the center to another administrative unit." During the past four years, the AMC spent nearly $1.5 million in taxes and student fees. But according to CCHE, ''it the AMC were transferred to the Library, still cannot guarantee the performance of he said, CCD-A would lose input into the its most basic duties." affairs of the Auraria Higher Education The failure of the AMC has often been Center. blamed on Tom Bonzales, CCD vice Gonzales, who repeatedly declined to president, who is not available for com- discuss the status of AMC with THE ment.

Jon Walter a ''hit'' on Tonight Show by Cindy Hosoya

Johnny Carson introduced him as a "unique gentleman" and indeed Jon Walter associate professor of theater arts at' Metropolitan State College, is unique. On February 5 he appeared on the Johnny Carson show to demonstrate his woodwork which he calls "bureaucratic art." It all began when Shirley Wood, Carson's talent scout, called Walter about his creations. She had heard about him from Denver's NBC affiliate, KOA T .V., which had done a report on Walter about a year ago, he said. Wood asked Walter to send pictures of his woodwork and a resume. A few weeks later everything was confirmed and the date set. When Walter stepped off the plane in California, a long, shiny, black lirnosine awaited him. He laughed, saying that was the highlight of the trip and he didn't care what happened after that. He spent the rest of that day, and most of the next, setting up his woodwork which helped relieve some of his jitters. Tony Bennett, also a guest on Carson's show that night, rehearsed his songs while Walter set up his things. By the time Walter left the studio the day of the show, he said he knew all the songs Bennett was going to sing. Of course he was nervous he said, he even told Carson that on the air. Carson

had introduced Walter as a "unique gentleman" and seemed to like him from the beginning. They bantered back and forth as they examined the woodwork and Walter got as many laughs as Carson. First Walter showed his handles - the "morning after" handle wraps around one's head and has wheels with pegs that screw into each ear to keep out the noise. The "face saver" handle was designed for Ed McMahon, Walter joked. It wraps around the neck and hooks onto the edge of the bar so that when one has had a lot to drink he doesn't have to worry about ·falling face-down on the bar. Next Walter demonstrated how his~ strange machines worked - most had c cranks and counter-weights and perfor- £ ' med tasks in a round-about way. few minutes of the show, possibly He demonstrated·, among other things, because of his extensive work in the a seven-foot five-minute egg timer. a bird theater and his years of experience as a called a "pogo hoppilus" and a "red- teacher. tape" machine that, when cranked, leads He is a l961 graduate of Clarion State one around in circles.

The Carson show was taped at 5:30 p.m. and aired at 11 p.m. After the show was taped Walter had a big dinner and some drinks, then returned to his hotel room to relax. And relax he did, falling asleep before the Johnny. Carson Show was aired.

Editorial Falwell interview no big deal r

by Emerson Schwartzkopf

It's amazing what a little courtroom drama does to First Amendment debates. Recently, Reverend Jerry Falwell - leader of the famous Moral Majority - recently went to court in Virginia, seeking to block publication of the March 1980 Penthouse . . . because he happened to be in this particular issue of the " men's" magazine. The Federal judge involved ruled against Falwell and the magazine appeared on sales racks nationwide. This action rolled out the old arguments on prior restraint of the press by the government. Those arguing against Falwell must have had smirks on their faces, seeing this new American religious paragon fighting to keep out of Penthouse's sin-filled pages. Many see Falwell and his Moral Majoritites as selfappointed saviors and censors, attempting to force their particularly conservative moral code on the rest of America. For the more liberal-minded populus, the Penthouse flap must seem like just desserts for these modern-day Crusaders. However, on this debate of "freedom of the press," there's one very large problem. Penthouse may possibly have the power of the Constitution to back up the publication of its "exclusive" interview. Jerry Falwell, on the other hand, is right. Not politically right. Just plain right. Falwell contended in court the interviewers failed to state where the interview was to be published - given that Falwell would have objected to his words appearing in Penthouse. One of the interviewers appeared on television recently to state Falwell set no ground rules on the interview's final destination.

This, though, brings up a serious point of journalistic ethics. Falwell may not have specified anything about the interview's publication, but was it fair for the interviewers to neglect telling Falwell of the interview possibly being in Penthouse? In reading the interview, it becomes obvious Falwell had no idea where the interview was headed. In dealing with pornography, for instance, Falwell uses Play boy as an example of sinful skin publications; and, wouldn't a topical preacher such as Falwell speak directly to his audience (Penthouse) if he knew where the words would finally appear? Also, the interview is lousy with low journalistic tricks unworthy of a skilled and honest writer and publisher. A preface states the interview was cut "for space reasons" (noted by elipses in the actual copy) and · "neither the questions nor the answers have been altered in any respect." What follows, however, are a number of elipses cuts gutting both questions and answers to near incoherance. During one answer, Falwell's response is cut four times in one sentence; and one question is never really asked at all, but inferred within parentheses. And, of course, the interview lacks the prestige of its "exclusive" billing. Falwell nearly always makes himself available to the press - and his appearances on news shows to explain the Penthouse controversy actually increased his public exposure. Once the interview is pieced together by readers, however, Falwell has no reason for worry. The interview reveals nothing controversial, as the interviewers failed to persue key routes of questioning. In fact, Falwell almost gives the impression of just an ordinary Joe using a bit of God in helping America out. Por-

nography, he notes in one segment, will always flourish. Let's just keep it away from the kids. In that case, would Falwell care to come to Colorado and testify against the stringent pronography standards being proposed by State Senator Ted Strickland in his anti-obscenity bill? Obviously, Penthouse has committed two major violations of good journalistic practices. One, it used questionable procedure in obtaining an "exclusive" in~ terview with Falwell; and, two, the interview is shot through with holes - both in undue cutting and dull questions. In this case, Falwell receives the small end of the deal, by unwittingly appearing in a skin magazine, and additionally in a bad interview. Consider, please, the man's rights to fair representation. Penthouse - and its publisher, Bob Guccione - will no doubt · use the First Amendment shield to accuse Falwell of attempting to censor "what the public needs to know." Legally, that's a proper defense. And, the public does indeed need to know more about Falwell, the Moral Majority, and the roots of the new American religious revival. In that respect, the American reading public has some important rights, too. Everyone has the right - and should exercise such to ignore the March 1981 Penthouse. Don't buy it, and refuse to look at anything until a good, in-depth article on Falwell etc., appears. There's no need to support a magazine promoting "good journalism," by placing a chopped-up farce of an interview between advice from a former prostitute and a naked woman pictured with a face painted on her abdomen. c

Musical mediocrity abounds· by Emerson Schwartzkopf

Reviewed this week: ARETHA/ Aretha Franklin/ Arista AL

produced . . . and nearly swallows Franklin's superb style. Tpe excess in production, however, doesn't make Aretha a total failure.

9538 BORDERLINE/ Ry Cooder/ Warner Brothers BSK 3489 COGNAC AND BOLOGNA/ Doug and the Slugs/ RCA Victor AFL-1-3887-A

In the early 1960's, Aretha Franklin moved from a neglective Columbia R'ecords to the Atlantic label and producer Jerry Wexler. The result, with songs such as "Respect" and "(You Make Me Feel Like a) Natural Woman," catapulted Franklin into stardom and earned her the title of First Lady of Soul. ._Recently, however, Franklin bas fallen into a reclusive period with new albums released intermittently and infrequent hits . In changing record labels once again, Franklin's Aretha should signal an era of new growth at Arista Records. This is, if Franklin· really wants to stretch her talents. For Aretha, although a- pleasant album, is more contentment than advancement. Much of the blame for the lack of excitement can be laid at the feet of coprod ucers Arif Mardin and Chuck Jackson. While Otis Redding's "Can't T~n You Loose" is a moving. r-artd-b shuffle, the rest of Aretha 1s over-

Franklin's smooth stylings of "Come To Me" and "United Together" come as welcome relief to those aching to hear Lady Soul sing one more sultry soul ballad. However, Aretha shows only the median range of Aretha Franklin's incredible vocal talents - those talents that brought her fame over ten years ago. Aretha shows she still has the power, but the material is lacking.

Material, however, is never a large problem with Ry Cooder. At times, this modern-day troubadour drew on the music of the l 930's, American folk styles, Hawaiian luau ballads, and "TexMex" hacienda howdowns. Borderline features a compedium of all these styles - or, in other words, this is "another" Ry Cooder album. While offering nothing new, Borderline is Ry Cooder refined to near perfection, and great entertainment. The music, though, is often overshadowed by Cooder's use of the 3M Digital System. As with his previous Bop 'Till You Drop, Borderline gives Cooder's music a crystalline edge using this advanced recording technique . The problem many musicians face with the digital recording technique is its ability to exactly reproduce sounds while recording. With Cooder, however, the simple country-blues flavoring of Borderline is enhanced by the more realistic sounds. . Although Ry Cooder has yet to be a Top Ten, platinum album artist, Bor. derline is a good example of why Cooder has a large, faithful cult following (witness the sellout shows this month at the Rainbow Music Hall). His unique combinations of diverse musical styles, coupled with an easy folk feel make Ry

Cooder and Borderline a pleasant - if not horribly complicated - part of today's music. In last week's MetroStyle, there came some moaning over the lack of good musical talent coming from Canada. Doug and the Slugs, a Vancouver group, may not totally change that opinion, but the outlook from the North could become brighter.

Cognac and Bologna is Doug and the Slug's interesting, if not memorable, debut. Although this band sounds like the typical sleazeball regular group at a continued on page 8

.-Jllet:~·51¢M~ Doug and Slugs no baloney continued from page 1 local roadhouse, Cognac and Boiogna does have a few positive points. The album jacket for this record gives · a note of thanks to Joe Jackson; much of Doug and the Slugs' music contains a definite Jackson influence, with a hard backbeat and hammer-like -chord changes. Like a roadhouse band, Doug and the Slugs show little originality with Cognac and Bologna; much of the music is

reworked standard rock themes of fast sexual encounters and slow emotional letdowns. However, the band makes up for its lack of new ideas with a heavy dose of humor (with lines like "I felt just like a daytime TV gameshow host") and some enthusiastic playing, replete with hollers and an occasional rave-up. Cognac and Bologna may not sell a million copies - or even a thousand, for

!hat matter - but this is honest, goodtime rock ·and roll from a limited-butgood old-fashioned "house" band. And, the album has one more peculiar trait. For some reason, repeated listings may drive anyone to rush out and get a cheap pitcher of beer and a pepperoni pizza.

Gymnastics team in top ten . by Terron Hutt

Late afternoons, the Auraria gym is amazingly quiet, providing an ideal time for the MSC Men's Gymnastics team to practice. As the team warms up with various stretches, the tempo builds. One member chalks bis hands and performs on the parallel bars, making it look so easy. The gymnastics team - in their first varsity year - placed seventh last fall at the Rocky Mountain Opening National 1 Meet. Head Coach Eric Fulcomer, and his assistant Jeff Johnson, had no knowledge there would be a varsity gymnastics team until July of 1980. There was little time for recruitment, and the team was composed of walk-ons and students. ... from P .E. classes. Fulcomer commented, "This is an incredible situation. People came out of the woodwork and here we are looking good." And looking good they are. The NAI statistics rate the team in the top ten nationally. ''Three of the team members rank in the top four or better," Fulcomer added. Those members are; Joe Glenn, first on horizontal bars; Steve Peterson, fourth on horizontal bars; Rich Gardner, fifth on pommel horse. ._"I'm proud of the guys. The odds were against us when we started and recruited

late, and here we are ranked in the top ten nationally,'• Fulcomer said. Two team members broke meet records January 29 at the New Mexico Invitational. Joe Glenn came in with a score of 9.1 on the high bar, and Rich Gardner scored 8.45 on the pommel horse. " We have a very capable team captain, Joe Glenn, who was a tremendous help in bringing the team together," Fulcomer said. "One reason for our success is the great support from our school, and Athletic Director Dr. Marc Rabin off.'• There is still plenty of room for MSC

men students on the team. "They don't have to be real top-notch gymnasts," Fulcomer said. "We take the time to develop them." The team's next meet is at home, on Friday, February 13. It is against Ft. Hays State, who are ranked third nationally. Will superstitions bTing doubts to Fulcomer's team? "No prol.Jlem, the tougher the competition, the tougher we get," he said. "This is a sign of good competition and of a good team."
