Researchers subjected to censorship

•· (CPS)-"Here it comes," whispered the professor to a reporter sitting next to him at the recent American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) convention. "They're going to say why we should have the boom lowered on , lts."

· Indeed, Adm. Robert Inman, deputy director of the Central Intelligence Agency, proceeded to tell the assembled AAAS members why they should submit the results of their governmentsponsored research to the government '{for censoring. Inman presented a frightening scenario of the government giving millions of dollars .to a university lab, which develops a vital piece of knowledge that, if not pilfered by a ..foreign student on the campus in the :·'employ of his or her own government, would eventually fall into the wrong hands when published in an academic journal. The issue has become even hotter this year as the government dramatically in..creases its sponsorship of military spending on the nation's campuses. And as the Pentagon replaces the National Science Foundation as a regulator of academic research, professors are worried about being subjected to constant censorship.

But federal money - even with strings attached - is about the only money available to the academic community these days. "Many of us (researchers) find it's a choice between having a job and violating the very principles of academic freedom that created our jobs in the first place," says Dr. George Mariel, the University of Chicago professor who predicted Inman's boomlowering speech. There is a lot of strings-attached money being offered. The Dept. of Defense (DOD) will spend an estimated $709. 7 million for research on college campuses in 1982, up from $495 million in 1980. For all research, including that done by the private sector, the DOD will spend $20 billion. The National Science Foundation will distribute $1 billion. Most of the Pentagon money will go to the hard sciences like physics, engineering, chemistry and math. But the professors getting the money wonder how much of their completed research will be deemed "secret" for national security concerns and barred from publication in the academic community. Many of the major research universities - including Wisconsin, Johns Hopkins and Michigan State - adopted

rules during the late sixties and early seventies that prohibited their people from doing any research that could not ultimately be published. "Our position as a university," explains Joe Sayrs of Wisconsin's engineering department, "is that if it (research) is done, it will be published." A Wisconsin professor is in the middle of an emerging challenge to that policy. The Air Force is considering trying to ban publication of engineering professor Shien-Ming Wu's research, which Wu did in 1980 under a $100,000 Air Force grant. Sayrs says the university is determined to publish Wu's work. The Air Force is still deciding if it will pursue the issue. The government, however, is actively pursuing tighter control of other kinds of research. In 1980 the Pentagon told colleges to keep foreigners out of certain kinds of government-funded electronics research. The same year the National Security Agency (NSA) suggested ways of keeping a lid on cryptology research, where recent breakthroughs in technologically breaking codes have been dramatic. In response to the government concern, the American Council on Education helped create a Public Cryptography Study Group, composed of

Aid cuts to affect two million .,. ·

•

-.,

WASHINGTON, D.C. (CPS)-In what one of them termed a "historic" gathering, representatives of the largest and most important college groups in the land met last week to preview with alarm - and to politically surprise President Ronald Reagan and the 1983 education budget he wants Congress to pass. Representatives of state schools, private universities, community and junior colleges, students and faculty members bitterly predicted that as many as two million college students will be hurt by the cuts. Thousands of them may be driven from campus altogether. "Deep cuts have already been made in appropriations for student financial aid," summarized Ed Hanley, lobbyist for the U.S. Student Association (USSA). "Further cuts are going to keep thousands of students from returning to college this fall, and others will never get to attend college at all ... The spokespeople, solemnly facing an audience of reporters and association. staffers in a House committee hearing room, said the Reagan education budget would affect all federal student aid programs:

National Direct Student Loans Under the NDSL program, created during the Eisenhower administration, 250,000 students now get low-cost loans to pay for school. The administration will ask Congress to end all funding for ....._ NDSLs.

Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grants SEOGs, which currently serve some 615,000 college students, would be eliminated.

NSA and academic officials. The purpose of the group, according to David Kahn, who has authored two cryptography books, was to encourage cryptologists to censor themselves voluntarily. After initially rejecting research guidelines, last February the group voted to accept non-binding voluntary strictures as long as a professor could publish the work even if the group advised against it. tinued I+ con on page

Pell Grants

The SSIG fund matches grants made to students by the states'. The administration wants to end the program entirely, which this year serves 300,000 students.

According to numbers leaked to the press, the administration wants Congress to cut funding for Pell Grants by 40 percent. Only students from families earning less than $14,000 a year could get the grants, compared to a limit of $27,000 this year. The maximum grant, moreover, would be $1400, down from $1670 this year.

College Work-Study Program The Reagan budget calls for a 27 percent funding cut for this program, under which the federal government helps colleges pay students working their way through school. Observers estimate some 250,000 students will lose their jobs as a result of the cut.

News Child care losers get temporary reprieve .____ __b_,_y_M_a_rgaret A. Dubois The mothers who gathered last fall at the usually cheerful Auraria Child Care Center felt abandoned - abandoned by the government, by society. The feeling was often accompanied by tears. The women had recently learned that the social services program, which funded day care had fallen victim to the federal budget axe. That axe cut into their future plans and splintered fear. Unable to afford child care while attending college, it seemed each would be forced back to the "safety" of the welfare system they wanted so desperately to leav(l behind. It appears they may find refuge elsewhere. Since last semester, most of those women have found ways to meet their own child care needs and continue with their educations - at least temporarily. The Colorado State Legislature may soon help those students complete their educations. In January the State Joint Budget Committee passed a social services supplemental for the 1982 fiscal year which includes funds for one-third of the.slashed day care program. A~rding to JBC

staff member Andrea Baugher the legislature will review the supplemental appropriation in the next couple weeks. Last week the JBC passed a recommendation for the same funding for the 1983 social services appropriation. The State Board of Social Services cut funding for students enrolled in two-and four-year programs in emergency measures last October. At the time, Mary Ann Ivey, state social services public information officer, said the board did not want to make the cuts but singled out child care for students because these people supposedly could find other ways to complete their education. JBC committee member, Sen. Ruth Stockton, said the state board was wrong to implement the cuts so quickly. "Ruben Valdez (executive director of state social services) wued orders for the cuts before we (the JBC) did anything," Stockton said. "We did not agree with the cut in day care. These people can't go back to school without day care so they're stuck forever on the welfare system." Stockton said the JBC voted unanimously to reinstate the child care program for low-income students enrolled in two-year prosrams and thoSF in

the last two years of their four-year programs. Stockton said she is confident the legislature will approve the supplemental which would go into effect immediately. Baugher was cautious however. She warns the JBC's recommendation will not necessarily be passed by the legislature. "It is not so clear that the dollar figure recommended matches the need for child care," she said. "Numbers from social services have not been so good on what the actual input of the child care cuts have been." Until further action is taken, students affected must depend on other social service programs and private resources. Several Auraria campus students have been required to register for the Work Incentive Program (WIN) in order to attend school and receive social services such as Aid to Families With Dependent Children. Joan Baldwin, administrative officer of social services' income maintenance, explains that new regulations require AFDC applicants and recipients to register for WIN unless they personally provide care for a child under the age of six with only brief and infrequent absences from the child. "The WIN team works hard on an individual basis because each situation is different," Baldwin said. "WIN does

have some funds for ~ay care. Unfor... tunately these have also been cut." One Auraria student with particular resentment toward the new WIN regulations is Karen Buffum-Knutson, a divorced mother of five. Last semester Buffum-Knutson, an MSC health management sophomore,, tutored on campus for the CCD nursing program. This semester she quit tutoring except at home and refused an oncampus job so she could remain WIN exempt. To bypass WIN regulations, BuffumKnutson cares for her youngest child at home during the day and attends two night classes each week while her older children babysit. Buffum-Knutson has cut her courseload in half but said it's better than working 30 hours each week, attending school and caring for five .. .. children. · Lori Windle, an MSC arts and communications major, is among those who have not signed up for WIN yet. Windle learned from a social services representative, however, that WIN is being~ phased out. In case she must register Windle has planned a training program comprised of an internship and communications and arts classes. Windle sought private scholarship sources to fund day care this semester. At 10 p.m., the evening before the spr-.ing semester began, she learned she was awarded the local Soroptomist International Club award. Soroptomist is an organization which encourages women over age 30 to reenter the job market. Other students depend on aid available through campus financial aid -=offices. CCD, MSC, and UCD financial aid directors encouraged students affected by the cuts to file redetermination of financial need and apply for student loans. MSC students who qualified for finan- t cial aid and enrolled their children in the Auraria Child Care Center are eligible for the MSC student fee child care subsidy. Neither CCD nor UCD have a sttident

It's Saturday and its time for your weekly shopping trip, so you walk into the den and sit down in front of your computer keyboard. Next you insert a cassette video tape which has been provided by the retail store where you shop. The VDT screen lights up and displays everything from groceries, to the newest in fashion, hardware products and appliances, to the newest line of cars. You decide what to scan and then ~get descriptions and demostrations. The tele-shopper computer is connected to the telephone, when a decision to pur-· chas is made, you again push buttons on the keyboard. The store instantly receives the order and automatically transfers money from your bank account to pay for it. The product will soon be delivered to your front door. Think you're looking into the future? Wrong. The tele-shopper exists today and probably will become the shopping norm of :"' the future. A recent survey done by 13 marketing students at MSC suggests that 39 percent of the people in the Denver area would be willing to try the tele-shopper. This survey was supervised by Randall C. Nevils, professor of Marketing at MSC. A ramdom sample of 400 Denver area consumers was selected from the telephone directory and surveyed. From that survey, statistics were compiled into tables, graphs and percentages, then fed into an MSC computer. An outside firm woiuld have charged $10,000 for ·~ the 10-week survey. Nevil suggests the 39 percent (plus/minus five percenJ) favorable response, represents one-third of the Denver area population. Reasons given for wanting to try the tele-shopper were: •convenience *like to try new things *do not like to shop *homebound •reduces cost These reasons are supported by the statistics showing; The way it shall be.

Not surprisingly, the survey found those willing to try the tele-shopper were generally younger and better educated, and have a higher income. Nevils suggests that the 61 percent who wouldn't try it "are afraid that you are taking the human element out of shopping . . . and that younger people

The tele-shopper, home-business computer or business computers are here to stay. It is conceivable that shopping will change with the opening of the first totally computerized supermarket or retail store. In all probability the store of the future will be a big concrete warehouse with an adjoining railroad siding filled to the ceiling with crates of merchandise. When the shopper at home sits before his VDT screen the view will be no different from the real thing. They may browse among the video created aisles comparing prices and pushing a button to order anything desired. Once the purchase has been subtracted from the buyer's bank account the products will then be delivered. Next week: more future uses.

Student Body Presidential Report Once again, Chicken Little Electorate is warning the world: The elections are coming! The elections are coming. Fanfare, fireworks, spectacles and speeches. All the excitement our national government only gets to enjoy every four years, we now have annually. And yes, this is the biggie election. The Executive Branch (President/Vice President) is once again to be contended for (take my job please). For a complete rundown of all the positions available, here goes:

I. Executive Branch

President Vice President Legislative Branch Student Affairs Committee: (three positions open) Student Curriculum Committee School of Business (two positions) School of Engineering Technology (one position) School of Community and Human Services (one position) School of Education (one position) School of Liberal Arts (one position) Election packets (which contain deadlines, Intent to Run Forms, election rules and regulations, and all the other pertinent forms and necessary to run a legal, effective campaign) will be on the front door of the ASMSC office, room 340, Student Center on Mon.,Feb. 22. The elections will run April 5-9, 1982. We'll have another of those ugly gray election booths in the main

hall of the Student Center. The polls will be open from ' 8-5 all five days, so there is ample opportunity to vote.

Response to the proposed student governmentpublished faculty evaluation has been V(j)luminous and positive. I spoke to Brooks Van Everen, President of the Faculty Senate, and he sent a trial balloon over the last~ _ Faculty Senate meeting. I'm hopeful that the faculty will recognize my efforts as constructive in that they will give students insight as to the particular instructor's abilities or shortcomings, at the same time giving the instructor a comprehensive evaluation from all classes taught this semester. I will need a lot of cooperation and help from the faculty members to make this project a success, and I believe I'll get that help. Democratically and representatively yours. Loring Crepeau, ASMSC President

Reader: Liddy should go punch a bear Dear Editor: I arose early this morning to get my breakfast and to peruse the early edition, a small pleasure my time does not often permit. Instead of reading one of the big Denver papers, I found myself traveling through the pages of the latest Metropolitan. Although I have never written the editor, I feel compelled to express my opinion on the editorial about G. Gordon Liddy written by Carson Ben Reed. I am uncertain about Liddy's first initial. It could stand for God, or it ~uld stand for George. As a sentimental person, I rather hope that the "G" stands for George since many facets of Liddy's personality remind me of a George I once knew in college. The George to whom I refer was the kind of person who loved boot camp, who equated the ability to endure pain with manliness, and who frequently placed

himself in jeopardy as a compulsive act of assurance that he was the biggest S.O.B. in the valley. George would, in many of these self-tests, tread on those around him, and then rationalize his actions in fantastically logical arguments, biassed, of course, by his · own prior assumptions. There was a curious thing about these rationalizations. Upon breaking some ethical law, George would snuggle up in a security blanket to which Mr. Reed refers as social Darwinism. It is, in fact, the memory of such misguided rationalizations, dislodged by the recent popularity of G. Gordon Liddy, which prompts this correspondence. In a mixed metaphor, Reed compares "Liddy power" to both American made automobile engines and an American made weapon. Now, George and I used t.o compare American made handguns and engines to foreign models. I remember concluding that the clunkers constructed in the U.S. often lacked the fine "specs" generally crafted into the comparatively overengineered foreign models. The domestic versions · were simple and dependable, achieving power at the

expense of grace, but they were dependable. Thus, it would be surprising if, on his frame (body), Mr. Liddy did not have stamped (tattooed), "Made in·. U.S.A." Such a brand should be an object of pride to the manufacturer's country. On the other hand, "Made in U.S.A." inherently makes this country responsible for product quality. Even worse, it subjects the country to criticism should the product fail to serve its purpose. We know what Llddy's purpose was. What the hell is it now? " Well, George finally grew up and ran out of challenges in the lower forty eight, so he went to Alaska to punch out bears. He matured en9ugh to realize that his manliness was best tested where the trial did not endanger those around him. Mr. Liddy remains among us, however, making money talking about punching out people. Will Mr. Liddy ever mature? Should we be proud, Mr. Reed, to have our country label degraded in such a flash of filth? I wish G. Gordon Liddy would go punch a bear. Michael A. Lundin

tiews Health dept. inspectors

continued from page l temporary labor pools for production line help. Usually from such labor services come transients of dubious personal hygiene and questionable health handling a product that - untreated for bacteria - is recommended for baby formulas and guaranteed as 100 percent pure. Ozonation, a process of killing bacteria by adding "heavy" oxygen, is not done despite recommendations by the American Bottled Water Aswciation which endores its use. "Water is the staple of life, and if tap water is unpleasant, or for health reasons you can't have bacteria, then bottled water is an alternative," H and A co-owner Jim Hansen said in a February, 1980, newspaper interview. That month the Colorado Department of Health tested Hand A's artesian water and found a bacteria count of 80,000 per milliliter, or about 19,200,000 per eight ounce gl11$ of water. Ironically, some purification regulations exist for tap water but not for bottled water. · Although it is understood that the bacteria are harmless, a letter from the state department of health to H and A co-owner John Noblit pointed out the significance of a high bacteria count: ". . . A'> you are aware there are no federal, state, or local standards for acceptable limits of total bacteria counts. However, as explained to you in our letter of April 8, 1980, this department feels that the high total counts reflect a lack of good sanitizing and/or disinfecting procedures." Ortha Console, a technical consultant for the Washington, D.C.-based American Bottled Water Association, said that while there is no established acceptable standard for non-coliform bacteria, members are encouraged to produce water with a zero bacteria count at the time of bottling. Merrill Fie~ owner of Deep Rock Water Company, 2640 California St., said that bacteria counts in the thousands are "unacceptable." He voiced concern that the numbers would be misinterpreted and criticism of one company would affect the entire industry. "There's no telling what kind of situation the water was tested under," Fie said. "Besides, you have to understand that these are not harmful bacteria." Fie refused to reveal the outcome of similar tests of his company's water, and neither the state or city health departments had the results available. According to Dr. David McGuire, director of the Division of Laboratories for the Colorado Department of Health, the high amount of bacteria pose no threat. "Well, we don't know what the organisms are," McGuire said, "they're not coliform. There could be any number of things that exist in gro~nd water, just call it a soil organism if you wish, (organisms exists) even in city waters that are through pipes. "They're associated with dirt, primarily, and they mean nothing," McGuire continued. "I mean if you go

listed~ din characterized the transient workers as '.'bums," and said most of them were "dirty." Fie said it is a rare exception for Deep Rock to employ any day-laborers. "If we did have reason to use any, it would be to unload pallets or something like that," he said. "They would never work on the production line." Although there are obvious and welldocumented problems with the. conditions and operation of H and A, Noblit feels that criticism of his company is unfounded. "You have to understand the amount of work we've done, all the improvements we've made since we bought this place," Noblit said. "Why, when we took over three years ago most everything was done by hand. Nothing was automated." Noblit added that the ozonator was used whenever possible, but because of

Large holes in the ceiling allow dust and other matter to drop directly onto the bottle capping machine. out in the garden and scrape up a spoonful of dirt you can isolate as many as two or three hundred or even a thousand different species of organisms. Wouldn't hurt you to eat the whole spoonful." Coliform bacteria are found in the intestinal tract of man as well as other warmblooded animals, and their presence in drinking water suggests a cross contamination between sewage and water supply. Noblit feels the high bacteria count resulted from improper testing procedures. "It's easy for a test sample of water to be contaminated by the person who is performing the test," he said. "And that's exactly what happened. The next test they did was significantly lower." The "significantly lower" bacteria count was 30,000 per milliliter of artesian water in June 1980 compared with the 80,000 in February 1980. The state health department has not done an inspection since then. Dr. McGuire emphasized that there have been no standards adopted because

the bacteria pose no threat. "There has not been sufficient research on it done in order to verify that there is any association between the number of organisms in drinking water, the number of just total bacteria in drinking water, and illness," McGuire said. "In the case of coliform there has been such research done.'' Officials are secure in their knowledge of coliform and are also secure that the threat of transmitting communicable diseases by mouth-inflating water bottles is very real. "Certainly,'' McGuire said. "If they are blowing them up by mouth and using people off the street to do so, why, Lord knows what goes in the bottles." Noblit says the mouth-inflating practice was stopped a year ago when it was first brought to his attention, but a former employee disputes his claim. Frank Hardin, who worked at H and A between July and December of 1981, said that inflating bottles by mouth was a common practice, and it was not unusual to see Noblit do it as well. Har-

lations but never enforced them iepairs it was "in and out of service." He said Hardin's statement that it had not been used during his six months at H and A was "not true." But plant manager, Ray Caraveo, keeps daily records of plant operations, r including use of the ozonator. "I couldn't say exactly without looking it up," Caraveo said, "but I'd guess that the ozonator hasn't worked more than three days in the past year." Caraveo said contractors are repair7ing the oottling room, and employees ·are working throughout the weekend to get the plant in order. "It's quite a coincidence," he said. "He's having the thing done after two years, almost two years I've been there. He's having it done on the same ~cweekend when he hears from TV crews. Isn't that a hell of a coincidence?" But it was more than just coincidence that health department inspectors have

plant operations. It also

visited H and A within the past few days. Harvey B. Morlan, a senior sanitarian with the Consumer Protection Division of the Colorado Department of Health, expressed surprise that there were problems at Hand A. He was also surprised that the controversial ozonator was not in use. In a July 10, 1980 letter to Noblit, Morlan wrote: " ... We are aware that you have installed a new ozonator and are awaiting shipment of an ozone tower to facilitate a uniform product exposure time. We are hopeful the new unit will sufficiently lower your total bacteria counts . . ." Morlan also said he was under the impression that production code numbers are nothing more than a recommendation, however in a March 22, 1978 letter to former H and A owner Elmer Wetzel, Morlan wrote: ". . . The production code must be on each gallon jug of bottled water at your facility. It must identify the production run, if more than one run is done in one day, and also the day produced. Theimportance of coding is to be able to trace a product back to the day it was bottled, if a problem arises." Neither company uses production code numbers as required by federal law. Fie, however, claims that his five gallon containers are coded, a fact that may have aided Deep Rock last year in recovering water accidentally contaminated by a caustic soda residue. Fie said there was never any danger from the incident which he blamed on a new type of plastic container not being compatible with the bottle washing machine. Of the forgotten production code law, Morlan says, " We haven't been assiduous enough in enforcing it." "It's entirely possible we listed some deficiencies and never followed up on them," he admitted, adding that the last inspection performed by his department - was almost a year and a half ago. He said someone from his office was due to visit H and A "soon." The last· official to inspect H and A was Robert T. Smith, an employee of the city and county Department of Health and Hospitals' Division of Environmental Sanitation. Although Smith listed over a dozen violations on Feb. 24, 1981, and is quite familiar with conditions at H and A, he refused to be inter- . viewed and referred all questions to his supervisor, Tom Bullock, chief of Environmental Health. Bullock said he knew nothing about H and A, and claimed he never received a copy of Morlan's letter to Noblit. Bullock did say that the water bottling company should be inspected soon. A spokesman for King Sooper's, vice president Bill Boggess, said he is concerned about the situation and is looking into it. "We don't have our own standards for drinking water," he said. "We go by whatever standards are set by the FDA as well as state and local governments. All we can do is rely on those standards and hope the inspectors are doing their jobs."

....

Far removedJrom the exhilarating freshness of mountain lakes,H and A's bottling plant is both dirty and dismal.

At least one inspector has some strong personal opinions about the value of socalled ·"purified" water. Says Harvey Morlan:

"I think people that spend their money on bottled water if they're normal, healthy individuals, when they could be drinking it out of the tap, are crazy as hell."

Poet talks about importance of Black history and struggle History Month, Green addresses these issues. Green explains that she is a continuation of black history, a link in the chain. She sees her role as observing, listening and helping blacks to help themselves. Green identifies the common denominator in the black struggle as the historically chronic lack of economic growth. She believes this financial powerlessness has a snowball effect economics influence the individual, the family and the community. The advent of slavery introduced economic depression. Green outlines problem areas contributing to this situation. First she acknowledges the importance of a healthy family structure. Strong family structures contribute to cohesive cultures. by Kathleen L.

As a key participant in Black Green feels.

Green lists the needed areas of change and identifies the method. "Blacks need to get back to themselves, back to the family," she says. "We need to do something for ourselves and for each other." Green believes the "victim of society" stance is a cop out. Coals need to be set and acted on, beginning with the black individual. "The positive aspect of racism," according to Green, "is that it will continue to impel the black race into becoming more self-sufficient." "Black is a culture, a race that isn't going to go away," she said in a recent radio interview. "I'm proud of being a black person because I'm a good person and don't want to see others hurt." The black struggle for survival in America and Africa is the theme for Black History Month. The Congress of Afro-American students is sponsoring films at 12: 15 p.m. during February in room 254 of the Student Center.

Black western history collected

During Black History Month it's interesting to note the level of participation by blacks in building the West. Denver has an outstanding memorial to these adventurous "souls" in the Black American West Museum, located at 3607 Martin Luther King Blvd. The museum, started over ten years ago, is the reality of a dream of Paul Stewart. Stewart has been collecting information concerning black western history for over twenty years. He has gathered photographs, possessions and first hand recorded accounts of

many 19th century black pioneers. These include the personal effects of Ferdinand Schavers, once bodyguard to President Abraham Lincoln, and an 1856 autobiography of Jim Beckwourth, for whom Beckwourth Pass in California is named. The principal goal of the Black American West Museum is to establish and operate a research center and museum. These will serve as an educational and cultural resource and produce an awareness of the roles that blacks assumed in Western America.

However, the museum is suffering severe financial difficulties. The Congress of Afro-American Students is soliciting members of the Auraria community to become members of the museum and encourages them to ask organizations to offer both financial and volunteer support to the museum staff. Interested parties can pick up additional information about the museum in the Student Activities Office, Student Center, room 153, or the Congress of Afro-American Students office, room 356.

RANdoM Tltou~ __ ltT_s_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ __ Venereal games for fun and enjoyment The venereal game can be fun! What, • you may well ask, is the venereal game? Not what you'd suspect. It's a word game, using terms of venery. Terms of venery also are known as nouns of multitude, company terms, nouns of assemblage, collective nouns or group terms. The first group presented here are either authentic terms - at one time in general usage as the only proper way to refer to a particular animal, bird, insect or fish when seen in a group, or social terms widely used in England. The earliest compilation of these terms was The Egerton Manuscript, which dates from about 1450. The most complete listing comes from The Book of St. Albans, which appeared in 1486. The more modern terms were compiled by James Lipton for his book An Exaltation of Larks in 1977. Why expose you to them? Lipton best explains in his book's introduction~ "I hope that a few of these terms will stick to our ribs and be ingested into our speech," he said. "If they do, we'll be able to turn to someone and coolly and correctly say, 'Look - a charm of finches.'" The first group of venereal terms are familiar and recognizable - they are

part of our living speech. Most of you have heard of: A school of fish, a pride of lions, a herd of elephants, a swarm of bees, a plague of locusts and a colony of ants. They all date back to fifteenth century England. Now begin the authentic, but not so well-known terms such as: a rafter of turkeys, a gang of elk, a company of parrots, a colony of penguins, a business of ferrets, a pitying of turtledoves, a drift of hogs, a troop of kangaroos, a knot of toads, a barren of mules and a mustering of storks. Read on and learn of: a leap of leopards, a skulk of foxes, a crash of rhinoceroses, a labor of moles, a singular of boars, an ostentation of peacocks, an unkindness of ravens, a sounder of swine, a clowder of cats, a murmuration of starlings, a shrewdness of apesJ'a murder of crows, a parliament of owlS and an exultation of larks. Now come the social terms, which can be categorized. Religious terms: a superfluity of nuns, a converting of preachers, a pontificality of prelates, a dignity of canons, a discretion of priests and an abominable sight of monks. From the court system: a sentence of judges, an eloquence of lawyers, a skulk

of thieves, a lying of pardoners and an untruth of summoners. Tradespeople and servants: a herd of harlots, a school of clerks, an obeisence of servants, a set of ushers, a proud showing of tailors, a cajolery of taverners, an impertinence of peddlers, a blackening of shoemakers and a wandering of tinkers. In the miscellaneous category we find: a blast of hunters, an impatience of wives, an illusion of painters, a riffraff of knaves and an incredulity of cuckolds. The next grouping of terms are those coined or encountered by Lipton in the preparation of his book. Stick tongue firmly in cheek and enjoy. Animals: a piddle of puppies, a blast of hippopotami, a stand of flamingoes and an intrusion of cockroaches. Tradespeople: a flush of plumbers, a babble of barbers, a swish of hairdressers, an aroma of bakers, a pummel of masseurs, an indifference of waiters, a shush of librarians, an ohm of electricians, a click of photographers and a nano of nannies. A group of undertakers is known as an unction. An even larger group is called an extreme unction of undertakers. Moving forward we find: a graft of tree surgeons, a charge of taxis, a torque of mechanics, a blarney of bartenders and an overcharge of repairmen.

In the professional ranks: a slouch of"" models, a column of accountants, a goggle of aviators, a nucleus of physicists, a colloid of chemists, a tantrum of decorators, a portfolio of brokers, a shower of meteorologists, a family of biologists and a complex of psychoanalysts. Visitors from foreign shores also are remembered: an explosion of Italians, a peck of Frenchmen, a pound of Englishmen, a pint of Irishmen, a fifth of Scots, an invasion of Israilis, a flight of Arabs and a watch of Swiss. Our friends in public life: a twaddle ""' of public speakers, a disagreement of statesmen and an odium of politicians. Musicians: a string of violinists, a pound of pianists, a whine of clarinetists and a parenthesis of cellists. Neighbors and relatives: an acne of ' adolescents, a nerve of neighbors, a bellyful of bores, a persistence of parents, an ingratitude of children, a descent of relatives and a mutter of mothers-in-law. Among the miscellaneous: a trip of hippies, a wrangle of philosophers, a ' sneer of butlers, a fumble of checkgrabbers, a dash of commuters, a pratfall of clowns, a score of bachelors, a buzz of barflies and an iamb of poets. Use your imagination and join the venereal game. by James Powers It's your turn.

Vanderhye is the associate vice president for business and finance for MSC. The story about the recent cold spell carried in the Feb. 10 edition of The Metropolitan also contained an inaccuracy. Several quotes attributed to Cheryl Presley, assistant to the vice president of Academic Affairs, were in fact not Presley's but Toni Smith's.

,Sports

Women athletes seek new highs by R.P. Bellizzi Everybody complains about the weather, but nobody does anything about it. That can also be said about MSC women's athletics. A lot of people have ~ constructive criticism, but it's unspoken - at least to the coaches and athletic director. This became apparent during a recent discussion by several women MSC athletes representing the five MSC varsity women's sports. """ Budgets, equipment, part-time coaches and motivation were just a few subjects touched on by the women who were later joined by MSC women's athletic director, Jane Kober, in the - ,

HPER conference room. Also apparent is that sports do reflect some aspects of our society. Women's sports, like men's sports, has become an area resembling the work place. Once people are involved in a job or sport for some time they consider themselves responsible spokespersons for others involved. People on both sides of an issue usually take a particular point of view and have difficulty maintaining an objective attitude. The need for objectivity is evident in a recent phenomenon in pro sports. Contract disputes are being settled by arbitration, with both parties agreeing to abide by the decision reached by a third party.

While the question of third party arbitration is not relevant to MSC women's athletics, the negotiating table most certainly is. Since athletic budgets are set at a certain level negotiations might not be an appropriate term to use in this matter. What is accurate, though, is that whenever special interest groups cannot agree on an issue, the best thing they can do is discuss it. Although no monumental changes were proposed or agreed to in the recent meeting, one major change was obvious: Previously discussed issues between people of similar interests were being addressed in a cooperative atmosphere. Even though the meeting between the

athletes and administrator was brief, the door to successful communication was forced open. The value of communication realized, the athletes expressed a desire for continued meetings with Kober to discuss subjects concerning MSC athletes. Kober, also recognizing the need for effective communication, offered more of her time to meet with the athletes. Misunderstandings and ignorance have existed for too long, she realized. Now that both parties recognize the advantages and benefits of communication, perhaps they can utilize the newfound wealth of knowledge to make sports what they ought to be - fun.

SpoaTs NoTES Craig Gallagher of the MSC gymnastics team established another MSC ..[ record in floor exercise scoring an 8.6 Friday in a meet at Fort Hays State University. The MSC team recorded its highest score of the season, 152.20. The team's last home meet is Feb. 22 at 7 p.m. MSC's track team took third place last

Saturday in the Colorado School of Mines Invitational. The team is preparing for NAIA national competition in Kansas City, Feb. 27-30, where it is conceivable that several MSC athletes could earn All-America honors. The MSC basketball club continues to progress toward its goal of regular competition with area clubs. A meeting for

all interested persons will be held Mon., Feb. 22, at 3 p.m. The MSC women's basketball team snapped a long losing streak last Friday with a four-point, home-court win over Mines. The win was the team's first since its opening game win over Colorado Northwestern. The 3-on-3 Basketball Tournament will

be held Wed., 2-17, from 6-9 p.m. The top two teams will participate in competition Friday at McNichols Arena. The MSC AJwnni-Varsity Baseball game will be played on Feb. 21 at noon at the MSC baseball field. MSC baseball players from years gone by will return to challenge this year's team.

Cuts to drive 'thousands from campuses •

continued from page 3 GSLs this year, but the administration wants to cut drastically the number of students eligible for them in the future. Reagan proposes to eliminate all graduate and professional school students from the program, double the loan origination fee to 10 percent of the loan value, make borrowers pay market interest rates (up from the current nine percent) starting two years after leaving school, and limit GSLs to students with "unmet needs." But Dr. Edward Fox of the Student Loan Marketing A.s.rociation, which helps arrange GSLs among banks around the country, says those changes might effectively mean the end of the GSL program. "Any change in the (GSL) legislation is the forerunner of an incredible amount of expensive paperwork for the banks (wha actually make the loans)," says Fox, who was not at the Washington press conference. "Banks could certainly be dropping out in the future." That's just one consequence of the cuts if Congress approves them, according to the press conference participants. More than 300,000 independent college students would probably be forced out of school, predicts John Phillips of the National Association of Independent Colleges and Universities. "Assuming only half of those who drop out of independent colleges" go on to public colleges, Phillips estimated "states would have to increase their subsidies by· more than $500 million." Allan Ostar of the American Association of State Colleges and Universities

then pointed out that many states themselves have been badly hurt by the recession, and were unable to make up the difference. He point-eel out that most states' allocations to their public colleges . haven't increased as fast as inflation. Still others worried about the ability of the 839,000 public college students who now get aid to hold on. A Southern Illinois University survey found that 61 percent of its students doubt they'll be able to continue in school full time next fall, when the first round of Reagan education cuts takes effect. Those worries are echoed around the country: Dr. William Pickens of the California Post-Secondary Education Commission frets about a "step-ladder effect" in which private college students will have to transfer to public colleges, where they will displace the poorest students on the public campuses. Those students, in turn, would be bumped down the ladder to two-year institutions. The lesswell-endowed students in community colleges will then be displaced, he fears. Shirley Ort of the Washington state higher education commission similarly worries about a "displacement" of students "on down the line" of institutions. "The question is what happens to the student at the end of the line.'' Ort estimates some 50,000 Washington students would be affected by the aid cut, and speculates that "maybe 20 percent of the aided population" would have to drop out. Asked if the state's public -college

system could continue to function under those circumstances, Ort paused and said, "I don't see how." Utah education official Dr. Steve Bennion speculates as many as "5,000 to 7 ,000 students may just have the doors closed on them" in that state if Congress approves the cuts. Cautioning he didn't want to sound alarmist, Bennion explained that "a lot would depend on which campuses lost that many students. If the University of Utah or Utah State lost them, they could probably absorb the losses with cutbacks. But if one of the smaller schools like Weber State or Southern Utah lost

them, then we possibly might have to think about closing a campus." "It's kind of bleak," adds Amy Har- ~ shman of the Tennessee Higher Education Commission. "A relatively high proportion" of public college students in the state are "first generation college students. These are the kids who, faced with an increased financial burden, are · most likely to give up ~d go find a job.'' In Kansas, "the independent colleges are very fearful," reports Dr. John J. Conard of the state Board of Regents. "I don't see much hope. There just aren't any other sources (of aid money) te tum to." •

Military to censor research continued from page 3 Since then the group has reviewed about 25 papers, Kahn says, and censored none. But Kahn sees the panel itself as a threat to academic freedom. " This is the first step toward anti-First Amendment legislation," he contends. "It's the opposite of what the whole national security issue is all about." Kahn claims that NSA officials have warned professors that if the voluntary censorship system doesn't work, they will sponsor legislation that would bring cryptology research firmly under government control. The Reagan administration, added George Washington University professor Mary Cheh at the AAAS convention, tends to "favor censorship over the free flow of ideas and information." " It is not our intention to slow down or impede research," explains Dave

Tisdale, a member of the NSA policy staff. The voluntary censorship panel "was !. set up because academic researchers unless they have worked for the government - won't know what needs to be classified or not. What we are doing is offering assistance." "If we received a paper that caused a '" problem - and we don't expect that to happen - we would go to the professor and engage in personal discussion, and try to reach an accord," Tisdale says. "Let me stress that we don't feel very many papers will even be a problem," he adds. To Kahn, the number of papers is beside the point. 'Tm opposed to institutionalized censorship. If there is harm in national security, the loss is far outweighed by the benefits of freedom and open discussion."
