''I've been in the student activities office foe 14 years and I was a student at Metro before that. There are a lot of people here I care about. 13JJt the last few years have been really hard on. me," Johnson said.

AHEC Buys $1. 9 Million Phone System by Tom Smith' Reporter, The Metropolitan

With the breakup of AT&T the phone busiJies., has been shaken up, and many people, companies and colleges are re-evaluating the systems that have. Aurarla is no exception. After looking at the needs of the campl,IS and seeing that the present phone system does not meet those needs, AHEC sent out letters requesting bids

for a new system. Five companies responded with bids ranging in price from $1.9 million to 5 million. After evaluating each bid, the type of system the company was offering and its price, a committee of AHEC personnel decided on an AT&T system. · The AT&T system turned out to be one of the lowest priced systems, at $1.9 million. At present_the system is being rented.

The cost of the new system will not raise the monthly costs to each of the three Auraria schools, said George Cunningham, director of business services. The new set-up will be purchased over a ten year period and will bring many new features to the Auraria Campus, he said. ' One feature the new system will have is call forwarding. This will allow a person to have calls

that would normally come to their phone forewarded to another phone. In addition, when the phone has more than one line, incoming calls can be bumpted to the next line if the first is busy. ~ Conference calling will also be available. This will include a voice box which will pick up any voice iil the room. _ Before any of these new features can be used changes must be made to the present wiring system. The code has._ been changed since the first phone system was put in. All wires must either be in conduit pipe or have a teflon coating on them to be able to ·pass code requirements. Other wiring set to be done will equip each room with a limited phone "i' . jack. From these jacks a person will not be able to call off-campus, but will be able to call the media center. This Will enable films and television programs to be broadcast in certain rooms with only • a phone call. ._ Maintenance will be easier on the new system, Craig Kontny, assistant director of telecommunication for AHEC said. In the past, servicemen had to be called in to do repairs. The new system < will be owned so repairs can be done by Auraria personnel, and phone changes can also be done by Auraria repajr personnel. However, the efficiancies will not cost anybody their job, Kontny said, but some people will not be needed in 4 ~rtain areas and may be reassigned to another area to do another job, he said . . Some of these people will be moved into the records section ' of the new system. In the past, AT&T had to keep all the records of who called who and when. a. But with the new system that will be Auraria's responsibility. One aspect of the system that is not so efficiant is the installation process. Kontny expects it to be completed by spring break. ~

because they (University Hospital) had a lot of money they were willing to invest,'.' Feuerborn said. "Instead there's going to be a band in • the Mission this (Friday) afternoon. Period. That's Halloween," Dahle said. It is unclear whether the office of stu- • dent activities rejected the proposal or chose to ignore it. Dahle Cited two main reasons for the ..#-office of student activities' problems. First, Dahle alleges, ineffective use of the office's budget, and second h-e said is the lack of cooperation between Johnson and the four student coordinators who work in the office. The office of student activities has a ~- budget for the 1984-85 school year of over $107,000. Of that amount, '$55,000 goes to pay the salaries of the director, the office's secretary and the student coordinators. An additional $10,000 'is used for benefits and travel expenses. · • The remaining amount is used for office expenses and special events and programs. "It's not like there's $100,000 to do programming with because there's not,'' Maragaret Raab, secretary to the _ office of student activities, said. According to the most recent budget

report, only $115.70 has been spent on college wide and special programs since July of this year. Dahle said the inexperience of the student coordinators and their 'inability to communicate with Johnson has also created problems. According to Raab, the student coordinators are able to come up with ideas for programs and events, but they don't know how to implement them and Johnson is not acaessible to help answer their questions. "She's not as-effective as I think the director should be," Raab said. There have been recent attempts to educate the student coordinators, including a trip to Arizona to a conference of the Associa.tion of College Unions International. Raab said the seminar gave the students a chance to exchange ideas for effective programming. Johnson will continue as director of student activities until November 19, when she will be replaced by an _ interim diTector who will run the office until July 1 of next year. Yolanda Ortega is considered the probable replacement for Johnson by most members of the office of student activities because of her experience in that position.

"I would love to fill the position," Ortega said, "if it were offered to me." But Dr. Antoni9 Esquibel, vice president of the office of student affairs, would not comment on a possible replacement for Johnson. "To name a possible interim director would be speculation at this point," Esquibel said. D

A Conversation With Mary Downs ,.

by Keith Levise Assistant Editor, The Metropolitan

Editor's note: Mary Downs, a Republican, is opposing incumbent Pat Schroeder in the race for the first U.S. Congressipnal District. Downs; a Denver native, was educated at C. U. ; The University of Denver, and the University of Maryland. She has worked as a financial planner, stock broker, and speech pathologist. "The pie is only so big. We've got to bite some bullets." -Mary Downs AT first glance, it may appear that Mary Downs and Pat Schrpeder have radically opposed views. ])owns favors a balanced budget and tax cuts. Schroeder, says Downs, does not: A key difference, though, according to Downs, is in their respective styles. "Schroeder and I do not disagree on abortion, or equal rights. I favor the Equal Rights Amendment. I am prochoice. " Downs says they diverge on

"substantial" issues-the economy, education, defense, and manners. Downs feels Schroeder has hindered her effectiveness as a legislator by "insulting". people. . "She (Schroeder) is forever tweaking the noses of the military, and you don't . tweak their ·nose and then shuffle in and -say 'Gee shucks, folks, will you help me?' because they're gonna say Sure Lady. " Downs is also critical of the attention Schroeder has given to the nuclear freeze, an issue which Downs feels is a °hoaxr or non-issue in light of it's tech1nical problems. Downs simply doesn't believe a freeze·can be verified. "I've goi: the kind of skills that we really need in W3$hington-somebody that can go through and look at the programs and talk about waste, fraud, and abuse, not just in military · programs, but in human ser..vice programs." She dismisses as "nonsense" the assertion that human services can't be cut. "We've got a system that rewards

incompetence," she says. She base5 her opm10n, in part, ·on firsthand experience acquired in D.C. She was employed as a speech pathologist at Gollaudet College, a totally federally funded school for hearing-impaired children. The college, with an $18 million budget and 220 students, had what she calls a " bad director." The solution, to hire an outside consulting team at $100,000 per year, angered · Downs. "We didn't talk about our problems in the staff lounge on Friday afternooi:.is," she says. "One time we went to the Annapolis Hilton-3 days, twenty of us at government expense. .The food was delightful, had a wonderful time, thank you, you paid for it." "That kind of thing makes me angry," she says. To push the point, Downs recalls her employment at Col6rado's Laradon Hall, where she was Director of Speech and Language Services. Laradon, says Down. "Is basically funded by private donations. We spent more money for public relations at Gollaudet than the entire budget at • Laradon." "Yet," she says, "most of my ret.arded, bi;ain-damaged kids at Laradon had better reading, writing,and math skills tpan these 'normal jntelligence' hearing impaired kids at Gollaudet." Downs believes many social pro-

grams suffer from a lack oL"competent management." She believes loo much money is being spent inefficiently. She cites the Veteran's Administration as one example. "Only 18 percent of the money spent by the V.A. goes to warrelated injuries," she points out. "We're • paying for conditions that people. were born with." Downs has little appreciation of "commissions that meet once ·a year and charge exorbitant amounts." She's upset with "programs that aren't • serving the population they were designed to serve," but, instead, are "feeding bureaucrats." · She blasts the National Institute of Education. "They've been taking $50 million a year, making grants to. (certain) universities for ten years, and all 1 they've been doing is re- inventing the wheel for ten years-they haven't done anything original." · "'I:hose are $700 dollar hammers as far as I'm concerned. You have to deal With the $700 dollar hammers, be it defense or human services." 'Downs points out that "only 17 percent of the budget is discretionary, because of locked-in entitlement programs. Congress will have .to go back and look over those programs, make changes, and get rid of those that are it bad.'.' cont. on page 5

Downs has plenty of criticism for military spending, though, she as.5erts ~"you can't balance the budget on the back of the defense budget-it's just not possible." "When you're talking about military budgets," she say's, "you've got to talk about the procurement process, because that's where it's gone wrong." : .., Downs says that defective and costly _ systems are being introduced as a result of people "fudging" on research cl.a.ta.

"Only 18 percent of the money ftPent by the V.A. goes to war-related injures. We're paying for conditions that people were born with."

She recalls one weapon, now in production, which, ''almost literally, can't hit the side of a barn.'' · · "They (dishonest researchers) are fooling with peoples lives...1 think those people deserve to go to jail. If we started prosecuting people for that kind of action, the situation might improve." "Strong defense programs are essential to America's strength among nations," she says. "We need a watchdog to keep democrats from slashing

the wrong programs, while at the'same time keeping the defense budget fiscally • efficient and sound." Efficiency in every area of government is Down's message to the taxpayer. "Congress has been totally incapable of controlling spending," she says. "You can't stay out of trouble by spending more than you earn. Right now, for every dollar we're bringing in, we're spending a dollar and a quarter." While she supports the movement to balance ,the budget, she's concerned

with the manner in which it is accomplished. She favors a constitutional amendment, as opposed to the calling of a constitutional convention. She's worried that if a convention is called, that members of "the far right or far left" may try to entirely re-write it. "I personally am rather happy with the Constitution," she says with a smile. "I don't want to see it re-written. I don't even want to take that chance."

OP/ED

.Abortion Film-Shocks, Angers.Viewer Dear Editor: God, "He giveth to all life and breath, an.d all things; and hath made of one blood all nations of men .. ." (Acts 17:25-26) Deuteronomy 12:23 tells us: " The blood is the life .. ." "Whoso sheddeth man's blood, by man shall his blood be shed; for in the image _, •of God made he man." (Genesis 9:6) "At 17 days, the new life has developed its own blood cells; the ~lacenta is part of the new life and not of the mother." This data has been documented and reported in medical journals. ·

Rec~ntly, many of us saw a real-time, ~ltrasou~d movie of a 10-week-old baby being aborted, presented by Dr. Bernard Nathanson at the NRLC Convention in Kansas City. For the first 5 minutes that we were introduced to this tiny little girl, she was sucking her thumb and moving about. The ultrasound was so clear fhat · you could even see her face and everyone marveled. Then the abortion began. For about 3 minutes we watched in horror as. the abortionist tried to break the amniotic sac with a metal tube. While he was jabbing and poking, we could see

the baby trying to get away. She kept sucking her thumb and moving away from the metal tube. The baby's hearbeat was normal at first (120 beats per minute) but soon raced to 220, then 240. The the baby opened her mouth and Dr. Nathanson said he fully believed she was screaming or crying.or both. Finally, that horrid metal tube broke tjie amniotic sac and in a matter of minutes the baby's body was dismembered and suctioned out, all but the head, as it was too large to go through the tube. Metal thongs ,were used to remove it. Dr. Nathanson told us that the abortionist, once he saw with his own eyes what he was doing, quit. The nurse, who helped with the ultrasound, resigned from her job. You and I are locked in a struggle vital to the future of this entire country. Everyday 4,000 unborn children are killed in this surgical holocaust; this carnage call out to you and me to take a stand. - Isaac Colvin Harrodsburg'. Kentu.cky

If D.J. Owens doesn't like Beethoven's music then I suggest he stick t~ c~ticism of music he can relate to. The Sixth Symphony obviously isn't top 40. It takes longer than 3 minutes to play, requiring a longer attention span of the listener. It doesn't play well as a video. And you'll never see the first oboe player bite the head off a bat, let alone catch any violinists wearing only one ~uined glove .while engaging in spastic shaking. If Beethoven causes D. T. to nod off then he should attend and criticize s~x, drugs and Rock and Roll music where he can be comfortable and is guaranteed not to fall asleep. Then he can leave Beethoven's Sixth to the Beethoven lovers. A pox on you D.J. for attacking the music that has touched our souls as it has been doing for us all for nearly two centuries, witho~t commercialism. Dave Sutherland

The Colorado Univer~ity Board of Regents will govern Metropolitan State College if a proposed merger of the two schools occurs. • Every student who opposes the proposed merger should ask himself the following question, "Wqat can I as a student do to prevent this merger?" The merger issue is the primary concern of the Metro Student Government. We are informed. of what is going on and we are looking for and findi~g ways to fight · this merger. First, if you are a.concerned student, come by the Student Government Office, in room 340C of the Student Center. Someone will be there to answer your questions or to direct you to someone who can. We need all the help we can get to fight this merger and we welcome students with new ideas. · Second, if you're a ~egistered voter, be sure to vote on Nov. 6. Remember- the final decision on the merger will be made by the Colorado State Legislature. Remember also the person who sponsored the merger bill last year-Representative Paul Schauer. Your vote can make a difference on Nov. 6. Third, phone or write your House and Senate Representatives. A list is now being made in the Student Government Office of a!l the Colc;>rado State representatives. Fourth, plan t<;> attend the Nov. 9 meeting of the committee established by the legislature that will make a recommepdation by Jan. 15 as to what needs to be done to improve the system of Higher Education in Colorado. If you Would like more infbrmation about this meeting come by the Student Government Office. Not many people care about the students of Metro State College. If we as students don't care about our school no one else will. . If as a student of MSC -you wish to graduat~ from the University of Colorado - that's great. Why don't yeu go to € .U. or one of its branch schools. But, if. you're like me and care about Metro State College and will be proud to graduate from Metro, you will fight this merger to retain Metro's identity. Metro is a young school ~ only 20 years old next year - and it deserves a chance to continue to provide an education of fine quality for many years to come. Sincerely,

Lisa Espiritu P~dent, ASMSC

LP #3 Solidifies The Fixx ,,.. by Tom Smith Reporter, The Metropolitan

A definition of fix is "to make firm, stable or stationary." And that is just what the Fixx have done for themselves with their third album entitled "Phantoms." Arriving on the music iicene in 1980· with "Shuttered Room," a great debut · album, up to 1984 with their effort, they have not changed their sound.

Staying with propucer Rupert Hine has helped to keep the same sound. Also having the same line-up makes for continuity. The only change is the addition of a bass player. Dan K. Brown makes an impressive contribution to this album. Cy Cunio has some talented vocal work·on the album. Jamie West-Oram, on guitar, does not stand out as on previous .albums. Adam Woods contributes some fine· drum wofk. Rupert Greenall has outstanding keyboard

work all through the album. A few tracks' sound like the ealier Fixx. "Sunshine In The Shade" is a good tune but much like the earlier sound. The same is true for "Woman On A Train" although the sound on this song is more refined than earlier. The transition from one song to another is quite good all through the album. · Three slower songs are on the album. "Wish", one of the stronger cuts on the album, has Brown on bass doing a stand-out job. The usual off-beat

\ \ '\

sound of the Fixx works well. The title.cut "Phantom Living" has a ..... · different sound from any other on the album-almost an eerie sound, with a great mix of vocals and instruments . . West comes in with a strong bit of guitar work on this cut. • "I Will" rounds out the three slower songs. A love song that has great vocals, ~ hot piano work, excellent bass playing and fine chicken plucking guitar work . Different rhythms, a Fixx· trade mark, starts out "Questions". Drums and bass doing different rhythms with vocals being added in as the song goes on. ~"In Suspense", probably the fines"t cut on the album, has super bass work by Brown. It starts out with just the bass, then drums are added, and eventually· the other instruments. West shines on guitar on this cut. Intensity 'builds throughout the song, \lntil · the 1 very end. . This latest album is a fine peace of work. All three albums are a good value for your music dollar, but this one will pu~ them in the mainstay of the music industry. The Fixx will be in Boulder on • November 5 at Macky Auditorium . Their concert will probably be very good, and sh~mld not be missed. Macky is small, holding only 2,300 people, so catch the Fixx in a small setting before you have to sit in the bleacher seats of , " McNichols and use binoculars to see the players on the stage. D I•

>McCartney Film Light Entertainment i

by D.J. Owens Entertainment Editor. The Metropolitan

We all know about P.aul McCartney's new fil~, Give My Regards to Broad • Street. Everyone's heard about it. We've all been prepared. ,_ The press release hailed it as McCartney's first feature film since Let It Be. How dare they mention the two in the same breath. Let' It Be came out fourteen years - ago! Surely the man has outgrown those childish Beatie games by _now. In fact, Give My Regards To Broad Street is nothing more than an elaborate i.nix of Let It Be and Help! :rhere is the intrigue (I use the term loosely) of Help!; and there is the running around, playing some, and more running ~round of Let It Be. Two of the new songs, "Not-Such A Bad Boy" and "No Values," are performeq in a dockside rehearsal studio that is practically indentical to the rooftop scerte in Let ll& Paul McCartney is certainly no cinematic innovator. He doesn"t try new techni- · ques, and Broad Street is encumbered with numerous old ones. A case in point: The good guys- Paul, Linda, Ringo et al. - have exactly until midnight tO come up with "the missing tapes. Near the end of the film there are t several cuts to the clock. 11:50, the excitement builds. 11:53, even more excitement. 11:57, boy this excitement is getting unbearable! And so on ~ GiVing away the ending would just be criftiinal. . But the music is new, and even the older songs on the soundtrack have new arrangements. "Yesterday" and ~·Here, There, and Everywhere" show only a slight departure from the originals. "Eleanor Rigby", however, is almost a oompletely new song. It is embellished with more strings, compliments oJ The . t" -Gabrieli String Quartet, and is stretched to its ethereal limit. . The most thrilling re-issue is "The Long And Winding Road." Here Dick Morrissey plays an intro on a tenor saxophone that adds so much it's a wonder the Beatles didn't think of it in l'he first place. . There ar~ some interesting themes in Broad Street, though it's doubtful director -Peter Webb and McCartney sat down and planned them out ahead of time. Rock and Roll is the 20th Century's Fountain of Yo~th, and Paul McCartney serves as ' the epitome of the r~ulting eternal teenager. Throughout Broad Street P.M. (as his license plates tag him) is very casual, driven around in a limousine, mind you, but still the irreverent boat-rocker he's always been. The man is in his forties, yet doesn't look a ·day over twenty-five. It's the old men in the three-piece business suits that ~are.the antagonists. They

~Hot·

In a scene reminiscent of Let It Be, Dave Edmunds, Chris Spe<lding, Pa~l, and Linda front the 1984 band. hardly talk, never laugh, and are solely concerned with the profit/loss statements . In one dreamlike scene that looks as though it came from David Copperfield, Paul's friend Harry is shown as a pauper. The older: business typ~ are seen beating Harry, and at one point, eoldly stab him in the heart with a sword. With compassion and faith (another theme in the film) Paul shows a painful contrast to the icy ineffection of the upper class, dandies. . As film art, Broad Street has few redeeming qualities. The "Ballroom Da.Jlcring" scene especially stands out. It displays intricate costumes and marvelous · choreography that turns the ballroom dance into a barroom brawl. Overall, Give My Regards To Broad Street is a half- baked effort. Just stale, hackneyed plot devices with very little emotion or surprise. The compensation is the fine soundtrack, but one can get that at a record store. 0

Emmanuel Exhibit Runs One More -W eek

The current exhibit at th·e Emmanuel Gallery is a ·, startling departure from the lackluster exhibits of late. It features art by the UCD faculty, and it catches the + eye from the moment one steps inside the door. The most amazing of the works is a large 5'.x-5' oil painting by Ernest Porps entitled~ , "First Thought." With its virgin white clouds and cliche blue sky, the piece somehow entreats the viewer to come closer, only to a frustrating end, as Closer inspection proves disenchanting.

~o~·withsta~d

scrut~ny

One piece that closer is "Ars Brevisl-It's Only A Movie." by Jolin Fudge. Here an exact likeness of Alfred Hitchcock is faded into the Egyptian ~esert. The blue sky is more believable, and the illusion is enough to want to touch. "Hello Rusty!" is another John Fudge oil painting. Here, in dramatic realism, a woman is panicked by an encroaching-squirrel. Her fear ju_mps right out, as the

Hello Rusty! by John Fudge

·<Ars Brevis!-It's Only A Movie by John Fudge

canvas seef!lS more than three-dimensional. Charles Moone's "The -Storm Passes" is a large acrylic drne mostly in the, dapple technique. The power in this painting is in the shadows; don't just give it a -passing glance. The entire exhibit doesn't have a central theme, as it

serves simply to showcase the faculty's diverse talents. There are gold-to.ned silver prints of Oregon upstairs as there are also a s~ries of charcoal drawings on paper. But it is downstairs where most of the entertainment lies. There's a small sculpture, some impressionism, a little cubism, and a montage. There's even a tenminute video entitled Passages by Gary Emrich that features The Metropolitan 's very own Nikki Jackson leisurely lounging on a luxurious hammock. The Emmanuel Gallery's UCD ~acuity exhibit will .,, run through Thursday, November 8th. Don't miss itl : II>

Defense Leads Metro Past D.U. Defense, Defense, Defense ... The true heroes for Metro's soccer team as they dropped cross town rivals Denver University 3-1 last Saturday. The first half seemed as though it was going to be an offensive blow out as "' MSC jumped out in front early 2-0. But the Pioneers added a goal of their own late in the first half to pull within one, for a halftime Metro lead of 2-1. In the cold, windy sec9nd half, the Roadrunners cam~ out playing conservative to protect their slim lead. Everyone on the MSC squad was play.· ing tough defense to stop the threatening Pioneers. But late in the game, a DU player touched the ball with his hand in the Metro's goalie box thus enabling the Roadrunners a free and successful spot l kick. Metro then went on top, comfortably, 3-1 with just fQUr minutes left in the gam.e. This week the men are headed into ; the NAIA District VU Tournament at ~ the Colorado Kickers Soccer Club in '\ ;:; Golden. MSC is the third seed in the U tournament. · D r

Action born last Saturday's soccer game in which Metro played an impressive defensive game to beat Denver University 3-1. Metro will be playing in the NAIA District VII Tournament this weekend.

Men Hope .r-to Qualify "We didn't do real well," said head cross country coach Micheal Peterson after MSC placed fifth at the Colorado State University Invitational meet last "saturday in which six teams were present. Peterson said the team didn't lool<as good as they did four weeks ago. However, Peterson is optimistic about qualifying for Nationals this weekend. :~ "We need 100 percent from each guy, then we'll qualify," he said., He added that he sees Metro as the fourth ·place team in the district. (The top four teams qualify for the National meet.) Peterson said Adams State College rand New Mexico Highlands should finish at one and two respectively while Western State College is expected to place third. "We've got to beat Mines," Peterson said. He added that Mines is tough up }- front but doesn't have a lot of depth. Peterson is looking for strong performances from his sixth and seventh runners. In the meet last weekend, ,Charlie Blueback was Metro's top finisher plac, ing 15th while George Frushour was next for the Roadrunners coming in 0 21st overall.
