Impeachment Proceedings Stalled ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

----

by Robert Davis Reporter, The Metropolitm1

The student senate decided W ednesday not to send President Lisa Espiritu before the.judicial board for impeachment.

Although the senate voted two weeks ago to send Espiritu. and Vi!'.!e President Dav'e Sutherland before the J- board the first vote was counted in closed ses-

sion and must be re-counted in an open meeting.

Behind closed doors two weeks ago, the senate voted 16 to 1 abstention to send Espiritu. before the board, but, with Espiritu watching, they voted 10 to 7 abstentions.

Sixteen votes, two thirds of the senate, are required to begin impeachment hearings.

Before the vote, Senate President

•MSC Board of Pubs To Meet Oiice Again •by David King Reporter, The Metropolitan

The MSC Board of Publications will convene Dec. 5 for the first time in six months.

The board, which advises student -..funded publications, has not met since May_16 when it hired Kevin Vaughan, editor of The Metropolitan.

The board wali in the process of restructuring its by-laws when it fell dormant after the Student Affairs board elected to stop funding for ,.. Metrosphere, the MSC English Department literary m1;1gazine.

The SAB stopped funding for Metrosphere because Academic Affairs failed to match SAB funds with institutional money according to the Associate ..., Vice-Principle for Student Affairs office.

The Metrosphere also accepted material contributed by writers not attending MSC. / Both of these actions violated conditions stipulated by the SAB. .._ Having lost -student funding, Metrosphere was not responsible to the Board of Publications.

Prof. Robert Pugel was chairman of the board and a member because of his association with Metrosphere. When that publication was dropped from the ~ Board of Publications, Pugel was not sure if he should continue as chairman.

"I was told there was going to be a reorganization plan." Pugel said. "I assumed we would be notified when and if they (tlie board) ·were restructured." r Dr. David Conde, Assistant Vice-· President for Student Affairs, was put in charge of restructuring the board of publications this fall.

Conde said he had asked Prof. Greg Pearson, Director ~of MSC's Journalism "' Program, to reorganize the board.

"I told them I'd be willing to look over a proposal and make suggestions," Pearson said. But Pearson said he never agreed to restructure the board.

Conde had said he expected to have the ~oard restructured by February :.> 1985. Recently, he decided the board might be helpful in determining what changes should be made. · "It's a very important area and we want to be very careful," Condo said.

"Don't write the story for a' week and • come back to see what I've accomplish-

-r ed.,,

The Metropolitan did not go to press during the Thanksgiving vacation, and this week Dr. Conde announced that the board would meet next month.

Vatighan expressed an ·interest in the board's reappearance.

"I would like to know who's going to decide who will replace me," Vaughan said. "If I get sued, I want to think someone is there to back me up."

Of the 13 board members, 8 are still associated with MSC. Dr. Conde said his office is trying to contact the members who still attend or work for MSC to notify them of the meeti~.

D

Pro-tern Tammy Williams suggested that a new senator '!:>e elected for voti"ng purposes. ''I'm really tired of these impeachment proceedings and we only need one more person approved (as a r:iew senator) to get this going," Williams said.

The senate appointed Al Ewing to the open spot and then opened time for discus!jion of impeachment procedures. Ewing was scheduled for appointment later in the meeting.

Senator Ben Boltz expressed his concern for the president's unwillingness to "get to know the faculty and staff and failure to engage in recruitment." · After the vote, many of the senators flared out at the inconsistent voting from two weeks ago.

"It will be better to get this out of the way now and not go back tq it later," P.J. Escobar said. "If there were any questions, discussion time was the time to clear them up-there was no discussion."

During an adjournment to "lobby," many senators ur.ged that the vote.was to send the president before a board and not an actual impeachment.

One senator, Bob Ward, who voted against the proposal, said he understood the vote but wanted to change his vote. ''I'm not changing my vote because of pressure though," he said. "If we're

all going to be put on trial, we're all going to be screw-ups."

Senator Heidi Todeschi said the whole i~ue was unnecessary.

"There are better ways to do this than the J-board," she said. "You can tell them areas that need change and let them work on it."

Others disagreed, saying attempts at discussion had been balked at.

"One of the reasons I've gone after this course of action is that I've tried to talk, but · all I've' gotten is a 'nope'.

That's not a very good answer," Boltz said.

"I've heard you give answers like that Ben," Todeschi said.

The senators finally decided to vote again and found four to have changed their minds, but, the vote was still short, 14 with 3 abstentions.

Espiritu said she had contacted a lawyer to assist her throughout the process but, as in the last two weeks, she refused further comment.

"Well, I better not let anything slip out," Espiritu said. · Steve Buhai, a member of the judical board who attended the meeting with Espiritu , said the public opinion of the President is slanted.

"No matter what the vote is, the public and media abuse should stop."

Buhai said. "Thin~ that are printed in the paper shotlld be substantiated.·: O

World Hopping-MSC Prof_lmpressed;,

by Nonna Restivo Hqwrtcr. Tiu· Mrtro11111;11111

Edward Schenck is a professor of English at Metropolitan State College with a penchant ·for traveling. He's been to more countries around the world than any one person could dream of visiting.

Last summer Schenck, his wife and about thirty other people hopped on a TWA Getaway F1ight and jetted to the Middle East-namely Israel and Egypt.

Ifs difficult for most Americans to focus accuratelv on either one of these countries. Foggy images of vast desert, camels and perhaps belly dancers fill the imagination.

For Professor Schenck, the highlight of the whole expedition was Jerusalem, visiting the places where Jesus led his short, tortured life. The group retraced the steps of Jesus along the Via Dolorosa, the path to Calgary where Christ fell carrying the cross.

"You feel different as you go along the route. Now there are many, many shops. Yet you think back 1,984 years a~o. The bible comes alive.''

Schenck said the tour guide was well versed in the bible and this strengthened the whole image.

"They are licensed guides who have taken many groups through, .. he said.

'

"They are happy to point with pride to roaming about. the desert with family the things that make their city special. :· and animals, a stark contrast to the Because Israel's third greatest modern kibbutz.

"They're ready for you." Schenck At one point during a stay in Tel Aviv said. "They've got decent deals on (largest city in Israel) Schenck decided diamonds and jewelry ... to take a dip in the Mediterranean. He Schenck was also amazed at Israel's was immediately surrounded by about accomplishments while surrounded by twelve or thirteen young men. hostile countries. Because of their "They wanted to talk with me-to mastery of irrigation, the Israelis have practice their' English first of all. Next, been able to transform parched desert they wanted to know something about land into gentle oasis.' the United States."

One of the hardest things for the Though Schenck and his wife visited group to conceive of was what the and dined at a kibbutz, they stayed Israelis call Kibbutzim, which are · primarily in Tel Aviv. He said their located throughout the country. These hotel was similar to an American Holiare relatively modern looking comday Inn.

Schenck likens these living But for the professor, Jerusalem was establishments to communes. Some well worth any inconvenience in Kibbutzim thrive in a vast stretch of accommodation. monotonous desert. _ "The city of Jerusalem-it's an "If you can imagine," Schenck said, impressive sight," he said. "With the "They are out in the desert producing golden dome in the center of the city fruit-good fruit, watermelon without and the wall separating Old Jerusalem from· New Jerusalem. You can see the seeds. The industry of the people truly struck me. They really work hard. I vineyards and trees and the Garden of saw immense pride- in their own surGethsemane." vival."

Schenck and his wife also spent about Schenck also saw Bedouin tribesmen six hours in Masada, an excavated set-

tlement sitting atop a mountain near the Dead Sea. In biblical times about nine hundred Jewish soldiers defended this area from the Roman army. Schenck contr~ed the area as it was then to its modern look. ''Now you get to the top of Masada via cable car; it's about a ten-minute ride. In the ancient days one got to the top the best way one could. You came through a viper pit, snakes all around.

You're trying to get up the side of a mountain and people are shooting down at you."

Guides also showed the tourists what they called Herod's palace. Herod was the king of Judea at the time of Christ's birth. On the side of the mountain, the king had his own hot bath and held court. · "You could see that the man had taste,'', Schenck said. Yet even as the professor _marveled at Herod's taste, he was quite perplexed at the engineering feats he beheld. After careful questioning he discovered how baths can be built on sheer mountain walls.

"When you have a lot of slaves you can get them to do a great many things;" he mused.

Surprisingly, the trip did hold some disappointments. The great pyramids of Egypt, according to Schenck, were

somewhat of a disappointment on the inside.

"We had to got through a labyrinth, a little tunnel, and it took us about ten minutes to go through this. We then got to the center. I thought it would be something magnificent and glorious.

It's merely a big room with nothing in it except a cement &lock."

While in Egypt, Professor Schenck also experienced what is called the Sound and Light show, comparable to our IMAX Theatre here. At this show, professional actors and musicians talk about the history of the great sphinx, a " mythological character with a lion's body and the head of a man.

"As you sit there," Schenck said, "there are different lights that hit the face of the sphinx. And as you look at it, after a while, the sphinx is (almost)

·with Mid-East Visit

talking to you. That's the way you're mesmerized."

But even as he gazed at the sphinx, the professor saw the pyramids off at distance, a modern taxicab cruising in front of them.

"It was an eerie setting. The old was brought back to 1984·. It makes history come alive."

For Schenck, the contrast between the Israeli and Egyptian cultures was stark. He saw the Israelis as a modern people, bustling and striving for technology.

"The Israelis have worked so hard to advance their culture. They believe in themselves."

Upon graduation from high school, all Israelis, men and women, go into the armed forces. College isn't even considered until after military service.

"They're ready to go to war in the

-

event "of a conflict," Schenck said.

Schenck also perceived a work ethic in Israel that impressed him. He saw a lot of merchants and businesses, rather than people just hawking wares on the street, as he has seen in other cultures.

Egypt struck him as a more struggling nation. He .went into Old Egypt ' and saw what he could only call squalor. The city is approprimately called "T~e City of the Dead."

Cairo,r an Egyptian city of 12 million people, obviously -has a heavy traffic flow. Yet Professor Schenck, on one particular bus ride, saw no street lights for almost a three mile stretch.

"It's a matter of guts at corners, if you can imagine," he said. "There was one accident while we were there, and three days later the bus that was in the accident was still there."

Schenck said Cairo lacked the beauty

of Israel's Tel Aviv, but he did enjoy a midnight ship ride on the Nile. He and his wife were entertained by a belly dancer and ate a nice meal. Yet the influence of America still came to haunt them, even on the legendary Nile.

"My wife has a couple of pictures with a 7 -Up sign in the background as we were going down the river."

Though Profess0r Schenck enjoyed both contries, he was most taken with Israel, mainly because of its biblical history.

"You read so many things in the bible. Streets where Jesus actually walked and things he said. And then you say 'Here I am.' It takes a while to sink in: I think every Christian and Jew should go to Jerusalem."

Fifteen days of travel cost the Schencks about $6,200, meals not included.

·Humanists Submi~ Petition Opposing Merger

by David King Reporter, The Metropolitan /

A petition defining the concerns of M5_C students against a merge+of MSC and 1JCD was submitted to the Higher Education Committee during a public hearing Monday.

The petition, sponsored by the Humanist Party Association, was signed by 948 Auraria students.

Ken Dickinson, a Humanist party representative from San Francisco, said he had hoped to have 2000 signatur~ to present to the committee, which is studying ways to improve the administra,.. tion of higher education in Colorado.

The petition was finished last Mon- day, but the 1'.hanksgiving holiday left only four days to get people to sign.

The Humanist party wrote the petition with the help from MSC students

and faculty.

MSC student government was asked to endorse the petition, but they were not able to approve the document before the committee's Monday meeting.

Dave Sutherland, vice-president of MSC student government, said student government is too busy with 'impeachment proceedings against he and Lisa Espiritu, student body president, to devote time to the proposed merger.

The petition includes a list of MSC characteristics tbe petitioners say should be protected. · "Therefore: Any decisions either proposed or legislative MUST EXPLICITLY GUARANTEE (sic)" • The present level of Metro funding will be maintained, specifically that all Metro funds will stay on campus and that Metro will be credited

with a full FTE allottment. (Full Time Equivalent-an amount of money granted to an institution based on its number of full time students.)

• Open Enrollment.

• ·Full support for existing Metro students.

• The current teaching emphasis at Metro. No movement towards Research and Publishing.

• The maintenance of any existing system of credit transfers between the Auraria institutions and a strengthening to include DACC credit transfers.

• Flexible scheduling and affordable tuition for working students.

• All current programs at Metro will be maintained.

• Pooled courses, mutual grade transference and cross recognition ot grade honor points will be maintained.

• UCO and Metro calendars will "' have a common start date, application and tuition deadline dates will be · maintained.

• The name Metropolitan State College will remain."

The Higher Education Committee will submit a proposal recommending MSC and UCD remain separate to the Colorado Legislature in January.

Michael Moore, chairman of the REC, said the committee heard several speakers opposed to the merger.

The Humanist party has been at Auraria for about seven weeks and took an active role in fighting the merger when they learned of the possible affect it would have on MSC. "We (the Humanist party) came here to prove what people can do if they know how," Dickinson said. "This is like a perfect laboratory."

· CampuS Chiefs on Holiday-Leave Message.

by Michael Ocrant News Editor, The Metropolitan

While some voices have protested our aging Chief Executive's penchant for rest and relaxation, some top MSC administrators apparently followed the lead of the American President over the Thanksgiving holiday. .

At least four administrators, like President Reagan, left the office early for a long vacation prior to Thanksgiving.

A quick check on Wednesday f01.µ1d a total of nine school officials out of the office until Monday: The inquiries, made by telephone, also proved the worth of executive secretaries, all of whom sounded somewhat evasive and suspicious of the inquistitive unidentified caller.

Among those administrators who _ vanished even before the turkeys were in the oven was MSC's own president, Dr. Brage Golding.

Golding, according to his secretary,

had departed at the ~ginning 'Of the week for out-of-state meetings and wouldn't return before Monday.

But Golding's secretary refused to give out any information before the reporter indentified himself.

In contrast, the secretary who answered the telephone for AHEC Executive Director Jerry W artgow, was helpful and even cheerful.

W artgow, she said, left on Tuesday for vacation to an out-of-town destination.

Tim Greene, MSC Budget Officer, and Curt Wright, Vice President of Business and Finance, were also gone for the week.

Gi:eene left on Monday and Wright took off over the weekend, according to their secretaries.

But for some administrators it was difficult to determine just when they'd gone a-cranberry hunting.

The woman who answered the telephone at the Auraria Library said that library director Patricia Breivik,

was on vacation and wouldn't be in for the rest of the day.

"When did she leave?" the uniden_ • tified caller asked.

"Well, if by chance she comes in today would you like to leave a message," she replied.

Other inquiries were met with more direct, if not less ambiguous responses.

The secretary for Dr. Richard Laughlin, President of the Trustees of the Consortium of State Colleges, said he (Laughlin) was in Washington D.C. on business and wouldn't return until Tuesday.

Laughlin apparently wasn't planning to meet with the vacationing American President.

Other administrato;s had equally pressing on-campus appointmen~s.

Stan Sunderwirth, MSC Vice President of Academic Affairs, was in an oncampus meeting and wouldn't be in the office the rest of the afternoon, his secretary said.

And Antonio Esquibel, Vice Presi-

dent of Student Affairs, had had a morning meeting and wouldn't be back un_til Monday, according to the person who answered the phone.

Still, even with all the absences of major school officials, everything seemed to be running smoothly on Wednesday.

A good thing, too.

If any important problem had come up, one supposes, the public relations department would have been able to dock the ship unit! the captain arrived.

Unfortunately, however, Susan Blish, MSC Public Relations Director, was hospitalized before and during the holiday.

At least, though, The Metropolitan w9uld have kept up with any sudden problems on the Auraria campus and administratots would have been kept informed- perhaps.

It seems that Kevin Vaughan, Editor of The Metropolitan , left the office early on Tuesday and wasn't expected to return unitl Monday.

Comments on Hofer Matter

Dear Mr. Vaughan: I would like to correct a couple of factual errors that appeared in the November 14 issue of The Metropolitan with regard to the Hofer matter. · In 1981 Mike Howe was no longer at MSC. He left in October of 1980. Dr. • -Stone's report was not placed on the back burner, but action on his report was dropped on the advice of our attorney from the Attorney General's office w~o felt that because of the lack of documentation we would not proceed at that time.

Also, at the t£me the faculty committee recommended to retain Mr. Hofer (1984) I was not Acting President of Academic Affairs, but Vice President for Academic Affairs. There is also no. way that Dr. Lal!ghlin could have known about the situation in the early part of 1981 since he joined the consortium only in the sum.._ mer of 1981. This past year the college did not pllrsue the non-renewal of Mr. ·

Hofer's contract becaus~f the vote of the faculty which led the Attorney General to advise Acting President Laughlin to rescind the letter of non-renewal. My recommendation was to pursue the matter through the Legal Channels, but the Attorney General felt that our case would not be strong enough because of the faculty vote.

I share Ms. Jackson's concern that the students at MSC deserve the best faculty that we can employ. Hopefully, situation similar to that which happened in the case of Mr. Hofer will not be repeated.

Sincerely, S. G. Sunderwirth Vice President Academic Affairs

Home In U.S.

San Chea is outgoing and earnest, eager to answer questions directed at him. He wants the world to know'of his people's suffering under the Communist rule in Cambodia.

His facial expressions change from downcast eyes and wrinkled forehead when relating something sad about his refugee life, to a direct glance and lopsided grin when speaking of things that time and distance have now made laughable.

Life for San Chea began in 1963 in Batta111bang, Cambodia, where the average Cambodian cultivated rice for

"They tied me too ·tight," he said.

After almost four years of such treatment he and members of his family, along with some 20 other refugees, decided to flee to the border of Cambodia and Thailand. They were met there by United Nations members and bused to Kaoidang, a refugee camp in Thailand.

"It took us three days and three night:S to reach the border," San said.

"My little sister had to be carried. We walked over 100 miles."

.

"At night, we would build bamboo

"They tied me to a palm tree with my arms bent back at the elbows and tightened at my ankles. I did not eat and had little to drink for two or three days."

-San Chea

survival-a far cry fro~ the urbanized world of America.

But in the beginning, San's life was not so different from that of an American's. He was raised in a large wooden house that looked very much like an American home, he said.

"Yes," he laughs, "it (his home) had a real floor, not a dirt one."

He also attended school, as children do here, and was taught similar subjects along with the French language l;>ecause of the past French influence on Cambodia.

His favorite childhood memory is of helping his father paint religious pictures of Buddha on the walls of the pagoda.

Then, in 1975, the Communists took control of Battambang, and he and his family, along with most of the populace, were forced to work on farms. Here, the soldiers separated his family and others, placing them in group~ according to age and sex.

"Men· in one group together, women in one, and girls in one, like that," San said. "We could eat together, but that was about it."

During this time, the soldiers frequently required San to do tasks that were too difficult for him. For instance, With the help of one, or two others, he was often told to transport four-foot barrels filled with tnud in the "" rice fields. The mud was used to build water dams for proper irrigation of the fields.

"I would talk back to them," he said.

"I was not afraid to say 'I cannot do it.'

'Oh yes you can, or you die,' they (the soldier.s) would say. It made them mad.

They tied me to a paff;n tree with my arms bent back at the elbows and tightly at my ankles. I did not eat and had little to drink for two or three days, I cannot remember.''

San still carries scars on his ankles from the torture.

with straw for a roof to sleep under,''.

San said.

Life was not much better in Kaoidang for San and his family. Their shelter was a simple structure made of bamboo and thatch, barely large enough to hold his eight-member family. At times their stomachs could not be filled on the portions of food they were allotted. .

Still, San was more concerned with the lack of freedom.

"The living conditions were poor," he said. "We cannot walk outside the camp. It was the rule of Thailand. A refugee cannot walk outside the camp.

I was very upset. I felt shut in.''

Yet it was at Kaoidang where San acquired most of his knowledge .of the English language, and for that he is thankful. ~

Some would call it audacity, others initiative, that led the young boy to listen at the window of a teacher's house while English was being taught to refugee students who could afford to pay.

He learned English by other means as · well. He purchased instruction books with money earned from work constructing buildings in the camp, and he spoke with anyone who was capable of an English reply, though he was often laughed at for his poor usage.

From Kaoidang, the Chea family was moved to a holding camp about 100 miles further north. They stayed there four months waiting to be interviewed by a U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service representative.

- When their turn to be interviewed came, and it was proven that San's family had a co-sponsorship in Denver with his brother-in-law and the St. James Presbyterian Church, the Cheas

Sketches -Past were transported to the Philippine Refugee Processing Center in preparation for American life in Denver.

They were there for about five months.

"Here they (UNESCO) teach · us about America," he said. "When orientation was completed, we were told going (sic) to the United States. I felt like I had another life."

In early January, the Chea family was flown to Seattle, then on to Stapleton International Airport, where they were greeted by Tongkin Ouk, San's brother-in-law.

"I felt tired on the plane and excited," San said. "I know that I'm away from Communist country and unfreedom."

After arriving in Denver, San worked as a nurse's aide at the Villa Manor Nursing Home on Mississippi Avenue-a job he did not eniov.

"They yell at me because I am slow to do my work," he said. "I do my best.

I do not like to upset them. They do not understand."

San recently began a new job as a busboy at the Alta Club, a new re5taurant and bar on Lafayette Street.

He has not worked there long enough to say he likes or dislikes it, but is pleased that he will receive $4 an hour.

When San is not working, he can usually be found listening to rock 'n roll music-Boy George is one of his favorite singers-or pencil-drawing pictures of his lHe in Cambodia.

San said he acquired his drawing talent from his father who would often show him pictures of paintings by

"I never got to see it. The Japanese people just told me, so I was a little disappointed," he said.

He almost always draws with a pencil because ink pens have such ,a dull point and also because he cannot afford to buy paints, San said.

"I like the pencil because mistakes can be easily erased," he laughingly added.

Most of San's drawings pertain to Cambodia and its people's way of life: "My drawings are about Cambodia and people's suffering because I want to show people what is happening. I want people all over the world to know about Cambodia."

But he also draws for pleasure and relaxation. "I like it, and know that one day I will get it do.ne well," he said.

San said there is nothing about the

I

American way of life he has not been able to adapno.

I "I feel a lot different about the weather, kinda cold, that's all," he said. "I use to know American people in the camp, so people weren't different."

San has easily adapted to American food. Salads and hamburgers are his favorites, but he usually eats these foods at work.

"My mom, she cook for us and is not adapted to American food yet," he said. "She cooks rice and soup from the Thai market. Sometimes, we get to shop at King Soopers."

In the future, San hopes to take art classes to better his drawing skill and someday support his family by selling his art.

Until then, he will continue to work" at any job to earn money and eventually move his family into a seperate home to ease the financial burden on Tongkin Ouk.

"My drawings are about Cambodia and people's suffering because I want to show people what is happening. I want people all over the world to know about Cambodia."

-San Chea

Picasso as an incentive to improve his .talent.

He said he has been drawing for as long as he can remember. "Soon as I. was born I see everything. I see my father painting, and so I keep my eye on it."

Encouragement for San's drawing talent has also come from officials of UNESCO. While he was in Kaoidang, UNESCO arranged for some 'of his drawings to appear on Japanese television, informing people of the war in Cambodia.

-

"Someday, maybe I will marry," he said. "I would marry an American girl if we could get along. I will teach my children about the war that started in Cambodia, and about their grandparents and great-grandparents.''

San said he will never return to his homeland.

"I think there is no long peace in Cambodia," he said. "There will always be war. I f~lt like America was home the minute I stepped off the plane."

Take An Adventure With IMAX

by Tom Deppe Entertainlnent Editor

Looking for a little "armchair adventure" to liven up the dreary days that winter will bring? "Genesis" and "Ocean," now featured at the Phipps IMAX Theater at the Denver Museum of Natural History will provide you with an afternoon's (or evening's) antidote to the upcoming seasonal "blahs".

"Genesis" takes you an a sweeping cinematic voyage that traces the geological evolution Qf the earth, and shows us the forces of nature still at work in the ongoing creative and destructive processes that shape the face of this planet.

You will be treated to some spectacular aerial panoramas of Africa's Great Rift Valley, the Greek isle of Santorini, Iceland and the Swiss Alps, as "Genesis" traces the developi;nent of the continents. The aerial photography forms a dramatic background as the narrator recites the theories of.earth's creation and gives us tlie staggering statistics of its evolution to what we now inhabit.

IMAX's giant screen and state-of-the-art digital audio system is the perfect medium to convey the spectacle of a volcanic eruption. The ever-rumbling background thunder of volcanic activity, combined with filmed footage of actual eruptions in Iceland and Hawaii that you see on the large screen in front of you, gives you the sensation of being right there in the middle of all the action.

"Genesis" is more than views of volcanic activity. It offers some stunning African sunsets and .glimpses of the ruins of past civilizations such as the Minoans in Crete. It is as much an enjoyable travelog as it is a chronicle of the earth's evolution.

In contrast to "Genesis" which may leave you feeling slightly awe-struck, "Ocean" is an entertaining, often whimsical look at the ocean and life beneath the water.

One particularly delightful scene in "Ocean" follows two divers as they frolic through an undersea kelp forest, while the sound track rather fittingly has Ringo· Starr singing "Octopus Garden." Take away the underwater setting, and it could . easily have been two people romping around in a park on dry land. If you are inclined to write off the· ocean's inhabitants as a bland group of creatures, "Ocean's" behing-the-scenes "personality profiles" of Shamu the kil~er whale and Belinda the beluga ought to. dispel th~t myth. In the scene with

Volcanic activity comes alive in "Genesis" Belinda, it's hard to tell just who's having the most fun, Belinda in tlie aquarium . or the children who are watchinf.!; her.

As in "Genesis,'' the IMAX experience gives you the impression that you are right in the middle of things. This is particularly interesting in "Ocean" when you come face to face with a giant octopus.

"Ocean" with its lighthearted, multi-faceted look at the ocean realm is a nice counterpoint to "Genesis." The two of them together, provide a movie adventure that's guaranteed to talee your mind off of finals, term papers and just about any other kind of stress-even if it's only for an hour or so.

Editor's. note; "Genesis" and "Ocean" will be playing at IMAX through March of 1985. Tickets are $4.50 for adults. Best bet is to get the $5.25 Museum/ IMAX combinaton and enjoy a day at the museum along wi(h an "IMAX experience. "

respect, is one of the movie's more positive statements.

For my money. "A Soldier's Story" is one of the best films to hit the movie theaters this year. It is a powerful human drama that doesn't have a weak performance by anyone in its cast, be they black or white. One wishes that Hollywood would come up with more movies of this caliber to show off the mostly overlooked talents of the black acting community.

by Tom Deppe Entertainment Editor, The Metropolitan

There's . no movie like an old movie-so be it with "A Soldier's Story." Now that it has escaped the obscurity of its exclusive engagement and has been released to several theaters in the Denver area, it's time that this movie got some attention on these pages.

Set in a segregated U.S. Army base in the deep South during the waning years of World War Il, "A Soldier's Story" is a taut mystery about the murder of a tyrannical sergeant and the investigation that uncovers his killer.

"A s·oldier's Story," the screen adaptation of Charles Fuller's Pulitzer Prize winning drama, "A Soldier's Play," is more than the usual run-of-the-mill murder mystery. It is a powerfully acted portrayal of the prejudices and self-hatred that caused the murder to 1 be committed.

Howard E. Rollins, Jr., in his first screen role since "Ragtime" portrays Capt. Davenport, a young black officer assigned by Army authorities in Washington to investigate the murder • of a sergeant near the Army base.

With his expressive eyes and regal bearing, Rollins gives a memorable performance as he endures racial slights and the resistance of his fellow officers to his determined efforts to find the murderer.

Adolph Caesar should be an odds-on favorite for an Oscar award for his role as the ill-fated Sgt. Waters, with his self-tortured knowledge that he no longer knows where he fits in as a black man after a lifetime of trying to con- form to the white man's image.

In a series of flashback scenes, Water's despisal and persecution of the easy-going, country blacks he considers a detriment to his race is as disturbing as the outright prejudice that blacks had to endure from whites in the segregated Anny of that time.

Caeser's portrayal of Waters in the climactic scene, where in a drunken stupor, he insults two white officers and confesses his loss 'of identity in trying to conform to the white man's . ways, is as powerful of a statement on the human toll of racial prejudice as I have seen anywhere. / ..i The largely black cast of "A Soldier's

In the first round, Metro upset the Raiders of Regis at the Regis Fieldhouse (the site of the tournament) in four games, 15-12, 15-17, 15-6 and 15-13.

It was the second consecutive win over Regis in the last ten days.

Metro was then to face the top seated UNC. The Bears won in three straight games 15-13, 15-9 and 15-7. The tournament was double elimination, thus MSC went on to the consolation bracquet.

MSC was to then face Denver University and this time it was Metro's turn to win in straight games. They ;,. took the match 15-7, 15-9 and 15-13, thus putting an end to the Pioneers' season.

On the ladies went. Now it was Regis again. The Raiders had stayed alive battling their way through the consolation bracquet. Metro was seeking it's third win in a row over the raiders.

In the first game, Metro came out · smoking. The ladies opened up an 8-2 lead as Regis looked on in shock.

But Regis didn't give up, they fought back to pull within one, 8-9. Metro then got the next point so Regis called a · timeout. But the short rest seemed to favor MSC as they went on to take game one 15-11.

The second game was close as Regis held a 10-9 lead. Then the Raiders exploded for five straight points to take the game 15-9 and tie the match up at one game each.

The third game belonged to Regis.

They dominated from the beginning, taking the game 15-6.

Going into the fourth game, Metro was pumped up. They had nothing to lose. h. win kept them alive and a loss ended ·their season.

The early stages of the game were close \.\'.ith Regis holding a. one point advantage 7 -6. But MSC broke the ice with nine straight pointS to win 15-7, thus forcing the match into a fifth and final game.
