News Plaza fo ,replace ·eyesore ~ ~,~~~~b-y_R_a_n-dy-G~ol-ki-.n~~~~

Auraria· has never had the historical beauty found at many older and more traditional universities. But, it's improving and the Auraria Higher Education - Center (AHEC) is trying to enhance the urban campus more by landscaping the area between southbound Speer Boulevard and the Science Building. Students shouldn't have to cross the

crete approximately three feet tall) around the sculpture (when one arrives), where students can study before class or sit and talk with friends," Morton said. The Auraria Entrance Plaza will be approximately 26 feet in diameter with a beige pebble surface, Morlon explained. There will also be an arcshaped planter about 60 feet- long, directly behind the statue that will face

church now, Taber said. "There will be scattered tree planting in front of the Science ~uilding," Morton added. The actual construction is like a long awaited dream come true for AHECofficials. They had planned to landscape that area since Auraria was built, and the architects had it drawn out almost a year ago. But AHEC needed funds from the State and then waited for the City and County of Denver to complete their work. The City and County of Denver built a bridge across Cherry Creek last spring and created a direct route from northbotind Speer Boulevard to 14th Street viaduct. Then they built sidewalks and curbs on Lawrence Street and southbound Speer on the side by the creek. They also widened the sidewalks and curbs on Lawrence Street and southbound Speer on the. side by the creek. They also widened the sidewalks across the Arapahoe and Curtis Street bridges. The last phase of Denver's project was to tear up 12th Street in front of the Science Building. Jerry Wartgow, AHEC's Executive Director, said because 12th Street . belonged to Denver, they had to wait until the street was demolished before they could do any landscaping. After the city formally vacated 12th Street late this summer the land was given to

Auraria. According to Taber AHEC received $151,900 of state funds for this project. They hired the Landplan Designers Group to design the area for about $20,000. According to Jim Schoemer AHEC's Deputy Executive Director they hired an outside firm because "when the state designated the budget for us, they included extra money for the architect's fee" and also because Taber didrt't have the time to do it, Schoemer said. AHEC then accepted bids and Technology Constructors were low bidders at $79, 749. "The bid was so low it permitted us to restore the plaza concept," Taber said, which was originally too expensive to put in. After AHEC received such a low bid they had enough money to pay an extra $41,644 to build the plaza~'Taber explained. The total construction· cost was $121,393 and another $20,000 went for the architect's· fee. The remaining money went to more trees aµd platforms Schoemer said.

UCD business school gets new dean, staff ,

by David Ross

Business schools across the country are enjoying increased enrollments and UCD's is no exception. But Donald Stevens, the new dean of UCD's school of business, feels that Denver offers a unique challenge. "Our success is going to be affected by · the commitment.of the college to serving the special needs of a growing city like Denver, with its pool of technical talent that qemands professional business education," Stevens . said. "Our biggest problem in three years could be how to manage our level of success, just because of the numbers of people who will respond to our excellent programs." · The business school is a little strained by its popularity. "We don't have more students than we want right now, but we probably have more than we can handle," Stevens said." So we are in the process of relocating resources and recruiting faculty so we can offer the courses that are demanded." Admission figures verify the business .school's increased popularity. Over the · five-year period between fiscal 1976-'77 and 1980-'81 the following changes in full-time equivalent FTF occurred: undergraduate business FI'E is up about

31 % as compared with a 4 % increase in all undergraduate programs; · all business school enrollment (graduate and undergraduate) rose 26% as compared with an increase of just 5 % for all of UCO; and graduate business FI'E up 9 % as compared with a 7 % increase for all graduate programs. "There's no question we're growing," Stevens explained, and to meet the .i.c challenge 1 'there has been a new com- ~ mitment within the last two years to the ~ UCO School of Business and the role it iS will play in Denver." .~ Stevens plans to recruit new faculty ing management development pro. and offer more programs. grams. "We'll offer specia,l programs "'J;'he big hiring effort was begun last running anywhere from one day to one year and we tried to recruit senior as week to bring managers up to speed in well as junior faculty in each functional areas t~ey are not familiar with" Stevens aJ'ea of accounting, finance, manage- said.

Sons often follow in their fatbers' footsteps, but seldom do men lceep pace with their great-grandfathers. Eric Hughes, admissions counselor at MSC, is keeping alive a family tradition dating back to the days of his greatgrandfather, Booker T. Washington. Washington was the famous black educator of the 19th century, who founded the Tuskegee Institute for black students in 1881. A century later, Hughes is meeting the present challenge of minority recruitment at MSC, as well as directing minority related programs. Hughes' work consists of contacting communitY' agencies and organizatioris in Denver, such as the Five Points com 'tl munity center and the Denver Northeast E Center. The staff of these agencies are ! made aware of what MSC offers. They ~ are given literature about MSC and they barriers while in school.

tion in Denver," Hughes said. "In part the problem lies within the media. Their blitz on the high cost of education is inaccurate and overstated. Minorities must be made aware of the support programs available.to them and realize the cost of education is not unattainable." . Booker T. -Washington once said, "The highest test of a civilization of any race is in its willingness to extenq a helping hand to the less fortunate." Hughes follows Washington's ad\Cice and has helped minorities express themselves both intellectually and artistically and has a very positive and realistic insight into minority students' plight.

"Street Talk," is a vehicle. used to educate the community - to make them aware of their fellow artists," Hughes said. His involvement with Street Talk, combined wit-h his past accomplishments, adequately qualifies him for his work with minority students. "There is a great disproportion of minority enrollment to minority popula-

tage I can see to this policy for student and faculty and staff is if they were to be so consistent and ban ROTC and military recruiters because their presence may cause an incident.'' Vaughan said this reinforces his view that the culture club had every right to protect itself "because clearly AHEC's policy is to punish the victim.'' Wartgow said it is truly a dilemma and AHEC is "trying to protect people who do not want to be protected."

Student Body Presidential Report

Loring Crepeau, ASMSC President

This year's Tri-Institutional Student Leadership Conference was a success. Representatives of Auraria clubs learned about Auraria and its relation to the three institutions; about student government - what it is and what it does; student rights; the SFPC and the SACAB, shared programs, common problems, and much more. Those representatives from those clubs will be able now to work within this •bureaucratic structure known as Auraria much more effectively. · Those clubs represented at this conference will be better able to utilize the services available to them. To all -those club representatives: Thank you for coming to this imprortant event; I hope it was as valuable to you as it was to me. \,

SPECIAL THANKS TO: Gina Johnson, Dr. Roberta Stnilnak, Dr. David Conde, Jerry Wartgow, Larry Ambrose, Gary McManus, Mary Foley, Ruth PeltonRoby, Joyce Parks, and Scott Woodland. your input was terrifically valuable, and your time investment is greatly appreciated. It is through your concern for the students that this conference-was successful! ATTEN·T ION ALL CLUBS: (those which didn't make the conference): the deadline for requesting club office space is October 1, which is TOMMOROWI Applications for space allocation are available in Room 210 of the Student Center. According to Mary Foley of the SFPC, the number ofapplications already received this year exceed at the number of allocations requests made last year. Parking problems 'still? I'm, sure every one of you who drive to school have had problems with parking this year. The situation is still pretty bad. Have you had any brainstorms lately on how the problem might be alleviated? As a Metro student, you have a

representative on the Auraria Parking Advisory Council. Her name is Judy Schuelke. She is your link with the enigma_µc AHEC. She has a mailbox in the student offices, Room 340 of the Student Center. Any and all ideas, innovations, insights, brainstorms, etc., will be heard by Judy and relayed to the AHEC Board of • Directors. Your input is welcome. School work got you in a rut? Campus living dull and colorless? Try something different and exciting! Join a club! There are clubs here on campus which represent almost every major academic programoffered at Auraria, plus organizations of religious, cultural, and political concern. Not to mention some clubs which are devoted to specific recreationalactivities. Want to know more about the clubs on campus? Contact me at ext. 3253 or 2797, or come into _the Student Government office, Room 340 C, Auraria Student Center. We'll help you find a club to your liking, or, if nQne of the establiShed clubs catch your fan- • cy, we can help you form your own club. Make something of your tenure here; if you don't, you'll be doing yourself a disservice.

MSC's niCI<name? Roadrunners; of course The other day I was being shown a brochure on the Metro athletic schedule and the cartoon picture of a roadrunner (the bird) was pointed out to me. I was surprised to find out the Metro teams' nickname is "Roadrunners". I guess I'm like a lot of folks and just never gave much thought to the Metro teams having a nickname. Go into the l:iookstore and you have a hard time finding a t-shirt with the critter on it. In fact, it could be a collector's item. On campus the buildings aren't draped with banners saying "Go Roadrunners" or "Leave the Orediggers in the dust Roadrunners!"

Go on campus at CU or UCLA and it's not long before you know they are the "Buffalos" and the "Bruins". With nearly all the freshmen wearing their bookstore t-shirts you just can't escape the- fact. Especially if it's a well-filled t-shirt. · This just ain't so on Metro's campus. The reason is that we come and we go. We just aren't on campus long enough to really get that school identity that is so prized at most colleges. Dorm parties, panty raids, hifi system duels are alost art at Metro. Try a panty-raid at Metro and you'll probably get a SWAT team called in on you. I'm not knocking Metro or its layout. In fact schools like Metro are just great for me and today's economics. I've gotta come to school and I've gotta go to work. A lot of Metro's students are like that and the nickname "Roadrunner" is appropriate for the studt nt body not just a cute name for our teams. It doesn't matter where you commute from, you

have to pound tar to get to Metro. A couple of highspeed laps around a 25• parking lot will tell you there are a lot of roadrunners. Too many, if it's ten minutes to class and you can't find a parking place. We come by bus, 4x4, bicycle and. even rollerskates, but we're t all roadrunners. Being associated with a passive, yet speedy little bird is okay by me. I'm tired of nicknames like Red Devils, Screaming Eagles, Mud Sharks, Psycho Polar Bears. We're lucky we're not the Blue Hens like Del_e ware U. or the Blue Hose (not a typo) like_ Presbyterian College, S.C. Can you imagine yelling "Go Blue Hose!" I think Roadrunner is real nice. I mean, what kind of mascot are you going to, h_ave when you're the Blue Hose? We have "Roady the Roadrunner". Catch a ballgame this fall or even a little bit of one. The players will understand. After all we're all _. roadrunners and we gotta come and we gotta go. by Joe Edw~rds

because we wanted to live comfortable with our memories. This is the way we gather star dust. But memories are different than history. History is written and becomes legend. Together it is the combination of history and memories that make us human. To deny us either one is to fault our very existence. However, we sometimes have to be reminded, before we move on to our own particular kind of greatness, that the power of that awesome force we call history, the grand events, and the rise and the fall of heroes, and villians alike, is in some small way rooted in neighborhoods (such as ours) all over the world. Where above all it was those small events that happened on quiet streets2 which neither fame nor fortune can ever matcl!, the singing of songs, the bliss of true love, the raising of children (how proud we were· of our first babys brown eyes and black hai~, and the meeting of friends, that help shape history.

That we are the foundation of all history. The seeds of the past and the future, and that our neighborhood (our beloved Mexican-Chicano Barrio), the place we grew up in, was part of that beautiful human spectaculat. The sign at Ninth Street Park has failed to note this, and should be changed. Because the present must be truthful, and not relinquish its duty to a past, so richly imbuned with the spirit and the beauty of all races, and nationalities. Orlando W. Martinez

Reader: library lacking-JD qUiet ,,.-

There may be a solution to the parking problem at Auraria and it has· been under our noses the whole time. It looks like a parking garage (lots of concrete), it sounds like a parking garage (lots of noise), and there are plenty of wide open spaces just right for pulling in your '67 Cadillac. Where is this parking haven? The Auraria library, of course. AHEC should jilst tum it into a two story parking garage and start over on construction of a new library. And this time call in architects who have some experience in desi~ng librarys, not parking garages. , · A rash solution? Perhaps, but it does point out the , frustration a serious student can be subject to when trying to study in our library. While certainly not the worst library in the world, the Auraria library could stand some improvements to make study-life easier there. There are a few simple problems plaguing the library that mak~ it not the most desirable place to ~ study on campus. Two of these problems are noise and the layout of the library. In an informal survey conducted by The Metropolitan, 64 % of the students said they thought the library was not too noisy. I disagree with this wholeheartedly. The library is too noisy for a library. It could be that the students surveyed have ~ ho~es'that are too loud to study in. This would make the library seem to be a quiet place. In my experience, I have never been in a noisier library than Auraria's. The main source of noise is people talking. Students as well as the library administration are , guilty of talking loudly in the library. This is because talking restrictions have never been enforced in our library. It seems as if the people in the library h.a ve forgotten the simple practice of library courtesy: no talking. At every school's library I have been in, the rules have always been short and to the point; shut up or

get out. Auraria library has proVided the exception to the rule. One reason that people talk so much in the library ' may be because the schools that use the facility are all of tlle commuter variety. Unlike schools with dorms, one of the few places on our campus that one is likely to encounter a friend is in the library. Since the ljprary is the only place it is easy to run into people on this campus o_n e can see how it would be simple to start catching up on the week's gos.5ip right there. And since there is no place in the building designated for quiet study only, anyone in the area is going to bear the latest news whether they want to or not. That brings up the next question in the survey. O°f the students surveyed 58 % said they would like to seean area set aside for quiet study where absolutely no talking would be allowed. Again, in my experience I have never seen a library without such an area. A quiet study section of the library would make everyone happy. People who want to study in groups could do so without bothering anyone that wants quiet. The two areas could be arranged so that they are on the opposite sides off the building to make it quieter still. The second biggest noise maker is the copy machines that are scattered throughout the library. When they are operating, the copy machines make plenty of noise which travels all over the library. As a machine makes change the coin5 drop into the coin return rather loudly. It is very disruptive when trying to study. -Also people tend to congregate around the machines an..d start talking. "How does this thing work",·"Does it make change?", "Where can I get a refund?", etc., etc., etc. This would not be so bad but the copy machines are located right next to study areas! There are very few places in the library where one can study without hearing a copy machine going.

Also 64 % said that it would be nice to move the copy machines away from study areas into a separate place on each floor. It makes sense. If the machines were centrally located no one would have trouble finding them or finding one that works. It would also follow that the librar}' staff would have an easier time ·collecting books and periodicals left behind after a student used them. The material would all be in one spot, rather than spread out all over the place. A blue shelf might also be incorporated to ease the task of deshelved book collection. The adqiinistration of the library has been trying to obtain money to sound proof the ceiling of the building. This would definitely help the noise problem. However it is the people who use the library that make the noise, not the building. A different layo!lt of the building could cut down noise quite a bit. Money will not solve the problem of people and machine noise. A little crea...tivity by the library staff and consideration for your fellow student will go a lot further than waiting for money to sound proof the library. ' The problem of noise may seem like a small one to some students, but it is a real problem at Auraria nevertheless. It is a problem for students who need a quiet place to study where there are no distractions. And since students have enough academic.problems to solve, they should not have to solve a problem just to find a place to study. ,Mark Helm

the thickly carpeted room Tomlin reflected on herself while the mirrored wall behind her reflected the traffic on Speer Boulevard. · Tomlin said she had 25 to 30 characters in her repertoire and, although she won't do all of tbem during the show, she'll do some of the old favorites and some new ohes, including Rick, the singles bar cruiser and the l 950s-style co-ed Suzie Sorority. Creating the ma1e characters was a challenge Tomlin admitted. ' "I had to ·dig deep into that dark side of myself," she said mQckingly, " and I came up with_those guys." Tomlin' s characters seem to be enjoyed because they often remind people of someone they know . Who could forget the precocious five-year-old Edith Ann, or the prim cantankerous telephone operator, Ernestine, whose words, "One ringy-dingy, two ringy-d~gys. . .Is this the party to whom I am speaking?" were imitated by people throughout the country. In 1962 Tomlin left her native Detroit for New York City. She studied mime while working part time in a talent agency. She was amazed at how hard the mime students worked for SJ> little recognition. "There's a little too much of the narciscist in me {for that)," she said. She lived in the New York's lower·east side but soon decided New York wasn't for her. "The men were all painters or sculpturers, the women did very little except, what's the old joke, roll the joints." Tomlin decided to go home to polish . her act. In Detroit she performed in coffee houses and on local radio and television-talk shows. But Tomlin had the feeling she could succeed. She was fascinated by numbers · and had her own system of numerology. She was sure multiples of 11 had significance for her and was certain in 1966 good things would happen to her career. In the fall of 1965 she returned to New York to prepare herself. In the spring of 1966 she had her first major break, a series of appearances on; Gary Moore's short-lived television show. By 1969 Tomlin had signed a contract for Laugh-In.

After Tomlin's successful stint on Laugh-In she did four television specials, winning three Emmy Awards in the process . She also starred in five movies and cut two comedy record albums.• and in 1977 she opened on Broadway in Appearing Nite/y, adding a Grammy Award and a special Tony Award to her wreath of laurels. In 1970 California's telephone operators made Tomlin -an honorary member of their union and gave her an _ award. Soon afterward, the Bell System ' wanted to use Earnestine in commercials b.ut Tomlin turned down the offer. She said when they asked her to do the commercials she cried. ~'The idea that they thought that I would do a phone commercial. . . that they could buy Ernestine... " she said in a false huff. Tomlin still feels doing commercials is corrupting. "I'm- not saying I'll never do one 'cause I don't know what I'll be up again. st in this life, but I've chosen not to do c them for .a long time," she said. "It's questionable on a personal level to take y01Jr own credibility as an individual and as a performer and artist and bring it to endorsement of a product." Tomlin said the enormous amount of money offered to endorse products is corrupting in itself. "It's like, 'I could neyer play Vegas how much (did you say)?'," Tomlin laughed, "Many times I'm tempted to go to Vegas, you know, I think, 'Well maybe I could go for a couple of weeks -,.. and nobody will notice'.'' Not compromising herself is important to Tomlin. She is political but doesn't want to be "co-opted by any group." She's a feminist but she refuses to be intimidated by radical groups. "I try to reflect the culture," Tomlin said, "In feminist terms it's problably a stronger statement that I'm up there performing." The changing times are probably good for Tomlin. There was a point in her life when being a co.medienne was difficult. ..

'Vanities, ' : realistic •

view· of womanhood •

by Anne Rovin

Mary majors in interior design because her bland-on-beige classmates interpret her i!reverent use of wild colors as talent. Kathy; retired head cheerleader and incumbent chicken wire queen, trains to be a physical education teacher. As graduation approaches so do anx• ieti~. But it is a little late to get serious. · JoAnn's fleeting concern is but a dim glimmer on her idealic future . She proceeds with plans for her marraige to her high school beau. The scene changes to an apartment in New York ten years later. Kathy has planned an afternoon reunion. Mary plans a trip to Europe and Kathy looks for a teaching position. JoAnn comes in from her suburban home while the kids are in school. Mary breezes in dressed in purple disigner silk. She is now the proprietor of a porno art gallery. Kathy, defeated in her efforts to inculcate children with spirit, has deve~ed her energies to pep talking the plants in a garden apartment. The lines are funny, the characters are familiar, and the actresses are superb in showing how womens rites of passage are disillusioning.

Rah ... Rah ... Oomph. Becoming women didn't quite turn out like they expected. The play "Vanities" shows the development of three naive high school cheerleaders to not-so naive womanhood. . The play, a comedy by Jack Heifner, is being performed by the Actor's Ensemble of Capitol Hill under the direction of James Hunt. Julia Elstun Payne portrays the character of J oAnn who is a not so pretty but very dumb blond dedicated to her prenuptial virginity. Coleen Hubbard plays Mary, a lusty redhead with a tendency to disregard moral conventions. Lei~ Luis performs the part of Kathy, a brunette, whose chief talent is building chicken wire and tissue paper decorations for floats, proms and pep. rallys. After graduating from high school, the three protagonists transport their group identity to a sorority house. The girls feel inconvienced that they must take classes. JoAnn majors in music because "Vanities" performed Oct 2,3 at registration are 11lways shorter than Moore School, 9th and Corona. Tickets other classes. $5, reservations call 837-8169.

continued from page 8 . "When a gal is funny they just don't take her seriously," she said tongue-in- cheek. A reporter commented that Tomlin no longer looked tired, in fact, she looked animated. She was surprised at first, then talked about staying up for performances. "I've seen very old actors, maybe 70 or '· 80-years-old, come off stage and look 20 · years younger," Tomlin said. "The nurturing they get from the audience revitalizes them."

Though she had only a small audience this time she certainly recharged herself. And she wasn't even performing. Tomlin's Appearing Nightly will run through Oct. 3 at the Denver Auditorium Theater, 1245 Champa St. Tomlin requested a "Hot Ticket" special for her fans. A select group of seats in good locations will go on sal~ at half price for the evening performances. These tickets will be available only at the Denver Auditorium Theater Box office and will only be available the day of the performance.

on avant-!]ar4e

by Jeri Lawson

Contemporary visions and ideas are presented to us through many diverse mediums, such as: books, music, dance and art. One of the most challenging and dynamic mediums available today . is the avant-garde film. Avant-garde cinema is synonymous with personal cinema. An avant-garde filmmaker is an artist, bypassing the compromises of commercial film toexpress his or her own vision. Film to an avante-garde filmmaker is as pa,int and can:vas are to a painter. Avant-garde film is experienced better as an art piece rather than a popular movie. ' On selected Tuesday nights at 8, the Denver Center Cinema, located in the . DCPA, will present SIGHTLINE, a \series of avant-garde films for only $1.5_0 a program. Why should Auraria students spend their · carefully budgeted time on an avant-garde film? The vision, creative ideas and insight these films express are well worth the time. For example, in the films of Hans ·Richter made in the 1920's, shown Sept. 22, the avant - garde techniques andeffects he originated are now commonly used in today's film language. Bruce

Avant-garde film pioneer John Whitney

Conner's films, coming October 20th, comment on society and leave the viewer with more than just the memory of being entertained. They make you question, examine, and think about the ideas they challenge. Four of the seven filmmakers will be present to introduce their films and answer questions from the audience. Two of the artists, James Broughton and Joel Singer, will appear together on the same night, Nov. 17. John Whitney will also make an appearence and Hollis Frampton is scheduled for Nov. 24. These discussions are an excellent opportunity to explOre the personalities of these dedicated individuals. In the next program, on Oct. 12, John Whitney will present a selection of his computer films. A pioneer in his field, Whitney has just finished a book entitled Digital Harmony, On the Complementarity of Music and Visual Art. SIGHTLINE schedules are available at the Denver Center Cinema and film announcements will be posted throughout the Au'raria campus. The , series is funded by the Rocky Mountain Film Center with a grant from the National Endowments for the Arts. The UCD College of Liberal Arts and Sciences sponsors the visiting artists.

The Gouldman treatment of The Ramones on Pleasant Drea~ attempts to use some of those bright pop influences on a band of notorious snotn~ punks. Surprisingly, the combinatiop works. In polishing up The Ramones, Gouldman tones down the hammering beat of earlier days into a clear, discernable collection of instruments. Also, Gouldman uses his specialty of accentuating backing vocals (remember lOcc's "I'm Not In Love?") to break up the continuous hum found on works such as Rockets to Russia.

The Ramones continued from page 11 three-chord rock played at thunderous levels. The music, coupled with lyrics made of absurdist punk street jargon, came close to danceable minimalism. Gouldman, however, effects some changes with The Ramones style. In the 1960s, Gouldman made his mark as an exceptional pop writer ("Look Through Any Window, Bus Stop"); in the 1970's, Gouldman carried such pop sensibilities over into the group lOcc.

The fine tuning gives The Ramones their most generally acceptable album ever. The diffusing of their hard sound, though, may leave hard-core fans cold . -and potential new converts may ~ remember previous efforts and continue avoidance procedures. With Pleasant Dreams, The Ramones still produ~ the funny kind of kitch that made them the favorites of punk intelligensia - the new album's 7-11 and "The KKK Took my Baby Away" show that. This is a band trying hard to be liked, who, after all, doesn't want to be a star? Anyone putting seven songs <1n one side deserves a listening, at least.

,S orts MSC teams Suffer,and succeed Soccer The MSC men's soccer team took their number 17 NAIA ranking to Omaha this past weekend and proceeded to drop all three games. On Friday Creighton University gratefully accepted two gift goals, and made them stand up for a 2-0 win. On Saturday, against Benedictine College, MSC scored first and seemed intent on resuming their winning ways. It ~. was not to be, though, as Benedictine won going away, 5-1. On Sunday, in the getaway game, MSC again took an early lead against the University of Missouri at Rolla, but could not hold it. Final score: UMR ,. 2-MSC 1. A weary MSC coach Harry Temmer was philosophical in defeat. "At least we got this (level of play)-0ut .of our system early in the season. We have a chance to bounce back." The coach str~ the importance of ,- upcoming conference matches with Mines on Friday and Regis Tuesday. "Those will be big games for us," Temmer said. The MSC Junior Varsity team defeated CU last week, 3-2.

In an effort to get a good look at ail the talent, head coach Bill Helman cut the roster down to approximately 45 men. He then divided those players into fdtir teams to compete in inter-squad games, as well as regular scheduled contests. The results have been two-fold. While all the candidates are getting alot of playing time, MSC has · been hardpressed to compete on the level of teams

they've faced this Fall. On Sept. 19, in their season openers at DU, MSC split a twin-bill, getting shutout in the first game, 3-0, before breaking out and taking 'the nightcap, 8-3. This past weekend in the MSC-DU Fall Tqurnament, MSC managed only one win in seven games. Head Coach Bill Helman said he got a good look at most of the players and would soon trim the roster to about 35.

Sports Calendar The women's volleyball team will host a strong University of Northern Colorado team Friday, October 2, at 7:30, as well as the University of Colorado on Sat., Oct. 3, at 2:00 p.m. The MSC Baseball team will play a 2:00 p.m. game on Wednesday, Sept. 30, at Denver University. The team then travels to the Air Force Academy on Sunday, Oct. 4 for a noon doubleheader.
