10-Car Break-Ins Police Arrest Two Suspects

Joseph Ross Reporter

More than 40 area employers sent representatives to Auraria's third annual Career Exploration Day, last Thurs ,

Pat Beckman Reporter

When Auraria Public Safety Officer Curtis Sproul s~w two men kneeling over something near the Thirsty's parking lot on the 700 block of Wazee Street, he looked closer to discover that they weren't praying. 路 Sproul said the men were kneeling over pieces of clothing and tools, and as he approached them, they threw the articles into some bushes.

Matthew P. Conway, 3864 Zenobia St.,. and Ronald G. Helfer, 2630 S. Sheridan Blvd., were charged with criminal trespass, suspected of breakipg into 10 vehicles, parked near Thirsty's on the night of Sept. 21.

Conway told the officer that the two had found the items, none of which, he said, belonged to himself or Helfer.

While Sproul questioned the two suspects, Gerald F. Lamberton, 1266 S. University Blvd., arrived at the scene, saying that his friend's Volkswagon van had been broken into. Lamberton also asked why I Ielfer was wearing his (Lamberton's) jacket.

Besides clothing and tools, police said they found two stereos hidden in the bushes.

"Sproul did a good job," Denver Police Officer Colin Compton said.

Compton said the break-ins occured between 9 p.m . and 10:30 p.m.

Several car windows had been broken, and the damage to the vehicles probably exceeded the value of the items stolen, Compton said.

He said that m many cases people leave their valuables in plain sight.

Women often leave their purses on the car seat, making it tempting to passerbyers, Compton said.

If a person wants something bad enough, Compton said, they won't hesitate to break windows. He suggested that valuables be locked in the trunk.

Lolly Ferguson, Auraria Public Safety administrative officer, also suggested that valuables be kept out of sight. She recommended people park in welltraveled and well-lit areas.

Four on-campus vehicle break-ins were reported last month; most occurred between 2 p.m. and 6 p.m., Ferguson said.

Representatives supplied information conceming student goals and future employment opportunities.

Large businesses such as Mountain Bell, Rockwell International and the International Business Machine Corp. attracted the most students.

When asked why IBM attracted so much attention, representative James Hrbek said, "We probably get the' attention for the same reason we receive 1.2 million applications each year. Our employees are very satisfied." 路 Rockwell and IBM were both interested in students majoring in engineering fields.

Martin Marietta sought a wide ~ariety of majors including engineermg, business information svstems and computer management. 路 Smaller firms, such as Touche Ross.

A 12-foot Sun Flower sail boat was reported stolen from the Physical Education Building on Sept. 24.

Wayne Ortega, who reported the theft, said he last saw the sailboat in a storage area in Room 104 of the building.

The yellow styrofoam boat, valued at $400., is light enough for one person to carry.

If you have information on the theft, contact Auraria Public Safety at 556-3271 or the P.E. Department at 556-8336.

an accounting firm, wanted accounting majors.

Allstate Insurance representative Anise Wiley said she was not looking for certain degrees.

"We hire people based on how well they will fit the open position," she said.

Wiley said Allstate does not always immediately hire those who submit resumes, but the company keeps those resumes for future reference.

"Unlike many employers, we use our pending files to recruit new people," she said.

While most companies at the career day were only supplying information, the Regional Transportation Disrict was actively seeking to fill three positions.

The number of people representing each company varied from one, from Touche Ross, to four from Rockwell.

Information was provided through representatives, video, charts and pamphlets. o

ROTC Chair Cites Rene-wed Patriotism Mike Grosskreuz R t!porter

Lt. Col. Ben Tilley was stationed in \ 'ietnam, spent four years in \\'est Gem1any and served the past three years at Fort Carson, Colo. His latest assignment is Metropolitan State College.

Tilley came to Metro in June 1985, as a professor of military science.

Tilley, chairman of the ROTC here,

gave an overview of what that program is all about in an interview Friday.

ROTC is the source of 75 percent of all commissioned officers going on active duty each year, he said. It's also the training ground for almost all Reserve and National Guard officers.

Tilly said a nationwide. increase in ROTC enrollment in the past few years partly can be attril>uted to an increase in American patriotism. He added, however, that there are almost

as many reasons people join the military as there are s~udents.

One big reason for the enrollment increase, he said, is ROTC's postgraduation job opportunities. Another reason is that military service looks goo d on just about any resume.

The Army offers two-year, threeyear and four-year scholarships to qualified students. At the same time, nonscholarship students can enroll in the first two years of ROTC without any

Lt. .Col. Ben Tilley committment to the Army.

"You can drop the course, and you won't wake up tomorrow in the infantry at Fort Benning," he said. Students can try before they buy, and ROTC courses carry elective credit.

The Department of Military Science is an academic department of the School of Educational, Professional and Technological Studies, Tilley said.

But it does not offer a major. All ROTC students have a major in some other department.

"Leadership excellence starts here," Tilley said, noting that the primary subject in ROTC is leadership.

"Metro State has produced, is producing and "'.Nill continue to produce outstanding young officers for the Army. The reputation of Metro State ROTC students is very high with the Army because our graduates have done well," Tilley said. "They have done at least as well as West Point graduates, if not better. This is not just a credit to the Military Science Department," Tilley added, "but to every department, professor and staff member of the college that has helped produce such competent, educated graduates."

Tilley has seen his share of excitement during the four years he spent in West Germany and his one year in Vietnam.

In his first visit to Germany, from February 1969 to July 1970, he served with the Second Squadron of the 14th Am1ored Calvary Regiment as a lieutenant. \Vhile there, one of his assignments was the officer in charge of a camp on the East German border.

Tilley was also stationed on the Demilitarized Zone in Vietnam from September 1970 to August 1971. As a captain with a mechanized infantry batallion, he helped plan and coordinate the artillery support for the infantry.

"We could see the North Vietnamese raise their flag on the other side (of the Ben Hai River) every morning," Tilley remembered.

Tilley, who is married and has two sons, has received numerous awards.

They includ<· a B1c·1z<.,Sl.ar, two Meritous Service Medals, an Air Medal, a Commendation Medal from both the Army and the Navy and a Vietnamese Campaign Medal with two stars. D

The tow man cometh

If Denver Boot Don't.Get Ya, Auraria Will Debby Temmer Reporter

As of Monday, Auraria Higher Education Center and D & V Towing had "towed in" $3,216 from students.

Since the start of the fall semester 96 vehicles have been towed-63 in the week of Sept. 9th.

The parking areas most cars are being towed from are Lots I, east of the Art Building, 26 tows; Lots S, at Speer Boulevard and Walnut Street, 19 tows; and Lots L, M, .'.\!, 11, 11and12 tows, respectively. The rest were in handicapped areas and fire lanes.

If. you've escaped towing thus far, here's what you can expect if you get caught parking illegally.

First, you will go to the Auraria Parking office and pay a $15 fine. Then they will give you release form, and you will go to D & V Towing on 14th Avenue and Osage Street to pay $18.50.

Then you can have your car back.

And if you have parking fines that haven't been paid, the parking office won't give you a release form until those fines have been paid-in full.

Deborah Kraft is one of those people who had to pay old parking fines-a total of $165.

Thursday, Sept. 26th, Kraft parked in Lot L, next to the Art and Music buildings, to unload heavy equipment.

She was towed.

"I got a ticket and was towed because I was unloading my car, and there was no place else to park and unload," Kraft said. "I know they.towed my car because I had so many outstanding tickets, but it doesn't seem fair."

Fair or not, they towed Kraft's car and demanded that she pay $165 before she could have her car back. Because she didn't have all the money, she went to talk to a parking referee about getting her fine reduced. He reduced it to $105.

Kraft still didn't have enough money, so she asked to make payments. but the clerk at the parking office said they didn't do that because of bad experiences in the past.

"You'd think that AHEC would want to help you since this is and educational institution, but they won't," Kraft said.

Two days later Kraft finally was able to pay the fine. When she called D & V Towing for her car, she got no answer.

"I tried to call D & V to pick up my car Saturday and today (Sunday), and they even said they were open 24 hours

An employee of D & V Towing locks up another prisoner as other POWs (below) restlessly await release. a day. And they even have an emergency number. But nobody was there," Kraft said. "Plus, they charge you $3.50 a day if you don't pick your car up on the same day as the tow," That added another $14 to Kraft's bill. · Another student hit with a large fine was Robert Davis, editor of The Metropolitan. His car was towed when he parked in a lot without a permit.

"I know I was guilty of parking

illegally, but it still hurts to be towed," Davis said.

David Espinoza, owner of D & V Towing said the number of towings this year is comparable to last year's.

"I think it has been about the same.

We just get more at the beginning of the year."

The most common violation resulting in towing is parking in permit lots without a permit. Students, such as Davis and Kraft, said they haven't purchased permits because of cost.

Auraria Express PrOvides Free Class-to-Car Escorts Regina Langton Reporter

It's 8:30 p.m. on a cold and dark Tuesday in October. You've just left the sanctuary of your philosophy class in the South Classroom, anxiously anticipating the walk to your car out in the boondocks-otherwise known as Auraria parking Lot C. The woman who always sits next to you in class is walking away in deep conversation with your professor, and the handsome six-footer from two rows down dashed out as soon as the clock

struck the half hour, ruining any plans you had to ask one of them to walk out with you. Now what do you do?

Call the Auraria Evening Express at 556-3257.

The Express is a free service of Auraria Parking and Transportation provided Monday through Thursday from 6-10:30 p.m. The on-campus shuttle provides rides to and from classroom buildings and Auraria parking lots.

In lieu of a route schedule, the shuttle works on an "on-call" basis, with wait time usually no longer than 10 minutes. A student also can pre-arrange

pick-up if he or she uses the service on a regular basis.

Mark Gallagher, assistant director of Field Operations for Auraria Parking and Transportation Services, said the Express is the parking office's attempt to make Auraria a safer and more convenient campus.

"We (at the parking office) are concerned about people's safety, and the shuttle is our response to that concern," he said.

Gallagher said he would like to eventually have three or four shuttles running once students begin using the free service more.

The parking office recongizes that students pay for tuition, a parking decal and daily parking fees, he said.

And so, they are provided the Express to make the student's experience on the Auraria campus safer, and warmer this winter.

What more could one ask from a parking office?

To arrange for free rides on the Auraria Evening Express, call the parking office at 556-3257, Mon.Thurs., 6-10:30 p .m.

At other times students can call public safety at 556-3271 to arrange for an escort across campus. o

Tournament Excitement Coming to Game Room 'Chalk up' pool sharks Mike Grosskreuz Reporter

The student center game room will offer 10 tournaments this semester, according to its manager.

Thea Hutcheson said Friday that there will be tournaments for pool, darts and chess. Also, a video game tournament is planned.

One ping pong tournament is scheduled, but Hutcheson said it could be cancelled if too few people sign up.

On Oct. 4, and Oct. 25, eight-ball tournaments will be held. A $3 entry fee is required, according to Hutcheson.

Between tournaments, on Oct. 1, 8, 15 and 22, Andy Hudson, a professional pool player, will conduct workshops on pool strategy and technique.

On Oct. 22, there will be a nine-ball tournament for the people who were part of the workshop, Hutcheson said.

"Even if you are one of our best pool players, you could probably benefit from it," Hutcheson said of the workshop.

Two dart tournaments, the

first Oct. 16, and the second on Oct. 30, will have prizes offered, according to Hutcheson. In addition, there will be a chance to compete in• a video games competition during t~ week of Oct. 22, Hutcheson said.

The biggest event for the game room this semester, however, is going to be the Association of College Unions-International (ACU-1) regional 1: qualifying tournaments, Hutcheson 8 said. ., ~

Four different events will be con- t; tested: pool, chess, darts and, if enough~ people sign up, ping pong. There will ,.Q:.. be an entry fee of $10 per event. o

The chess tournament will be held Nov. 20 and 21 and the darts competition will be Nov. 22 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., or until it is finished.

Dave Yarington, Joe Boger and Linda Salter, all UCO students, went to last year's ACU-1 regional tournament at Utah State University. This year, the regional tournament will be in Golden sometime in February, Hutcheson said.

In mid-November, there will be a gamer's demonstration, at which new fantasy role-playing games will be displayed, Hutcheson said. In addition, Hudson will b e back on Dec. 3 to give an exhibition on trick pool shooting.

Reduced rates for the games in the gameroom are available to those with a student l.D., Hutcheson said. For example, pool costs $1.60 for students and $2.40 per hour for others, including staff and faculty. Ping pong costs 80¢ per hour for everyone, while checkers, chess, backgammon and cards cost 40¢ per hour.

Hutcheson said that the game room is open from 9 a.m. to 8:45 p.m. on Monday through Thursday and 9 a.m . to 5:45 p.m. ox:i Friday.

"It's a fun place to come and study, play, chat or whatever," Hutcheson said. "We have an excellent staff that

can help you with your questions about the games and the maintenance of your own equipment."

Another service provided by the game room is the issuing of l.D. cards, Hutcheson said. l.D. cards are issued in the game room during the semester and in the Central Classroom Building during registration.

Hutcheson advised all students who mail register in the future to get an l.D. from the game room during the week before walk-in registration to avoid the long lines that are common during the week of every semester.

The heaviest demands for l.D.'s is during walk-in, the first week of classes, mid-terms and finals, Hutcheson said.

During the week of walk-in, she said 3,165 new or replacement l.D.s were issued.

The game room issues l.D.s for all three Auraria schools, including those for staff and faculty, Hutcheson said.

They cost $3, and a photo l.D. and tuition receipt are required, unless the student is on the mail-in list.

Staff and faculty need an institutional I.D. for to get a new 1.D., or to get an existing one validated.

German Educational ~xperts to Visit Auraria Mike Grosskreuz Reporter

•

..

Educational experts from Germany will visit Auraria next week to observe the educational process and job placement services offered to students here, the manager of the Office of International Student Services said Friday.

Skip Crownhart said that the seven educators, part of a Fulbright Scholar exchange program, will arrive on campus Oct. 7.

The Fulbright scholars will visit Auraria to learn about an educational system markedly different than theirs.

For example, once a German student decides to pursue a vocational education, he usually cannot switch to an academic institution.

One of the reasons the group is interested in Auraria is its unique, three-school campus.

Also of interest is Auraria's Student Assistance Center, which provides counselors to help students find jobs.

In Germany, where civil employees keep jobs for life, students have a hard time breaking into the job market.

According to Crownhart, German academic institutions are separate from vocational education schools, a contrast to Auraria, where they are combined.

Fulbright grants are for administrators and faculty who visit foreign countries to conduct research. Trans-

portation, hotel and materials costs are paid for by the grants. They are available for four weeks to one year of study abroad. Competition for the limited number of grants is usually tough. England and Europe are the

During her stay, Crownhart observed German schools. She visited many types of specialized institutions, including a military university, a technical training center, an art school and a regular academic college.

places of study most in demand.

Applicants must have made significant contributions to their fields.

Besides demonstrating a need to visit a country applicants must pledge to share information they gather with all interested academics in their field, not just with their own universities.

After applying for three years in a row, Crownhart finally was selected for a trip to Germany earlier this year.

She was one of 20 selected for the trip.

Crownhart was one of 10 scholars who toured the northern part of Germany for three weeks in April and May. (The other 10 toured southern Germany.)

"We're far more flexible in this country in our educational system than they are," Crownhart commented. "Our schools combine all of these areas (vocational and academic) and allow students to study in another area if they change their minds."

Crownhart said there is a program for students.

The WashingtonD.C. office of OIAA asked Crownhart to host the group of German scholars coming to Aurclria.

The request was based on the success of her trip to Germany and on Aura-

ria's variety of institutions on one campus.

The group will tour the campus and talk to administrators Monday, Oct. 7, and Tuesday, Oct. 8, Crownhart said.

Faculty and staff members interested in talking to the German scholars can come to the St. Francis Center for the International Student Reception from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. on Tuesday.

At the same time, the ITT Corp. announced the beginning of the 14th annual competition for graduate-level International Fellowships for studies abroad.

Applications can be obtained through campus foreign-studies offices. Graduating seniors must complete the applications and submit them through a campus Fulbright-program advisor. The applications must reach New York by Oct. 31, 1985.

Anyone interested in one of the Fulbright programs can visit the OISS in the Auraria Student Assistance Center, Central Classroom 108, or call 556O 3474 for more information.

RTD Offers New Deal The Regional Transportation District has added merchant discounts to their enticements for bus riders to purchase monthly passes.

As part of a promotional campaign called the RTDeal, passholders can get special discounts when they show their bus passes at participating businesses.

Many deals are half-price offers, such as an American Ski Association membership, a room at Vail's Holiday Inn and an initiation fee at the Internaional Athletic Club. Denver Botanic Gardens and the Boulder Philharmonic

will give two for the price of one tickets to passholders.

Closer to campus, the AMC Theatres in the Tivoli offer passholders two admissions for.$3. Dave Cook's sporting goods store will give a 20$ discount on purchases of $2.5 or more, excluding purchases of guns and cameras, when you flash your pass.

Monthly passes are available in the Convenience Store in the basement of the Student Center at a discounted price of $16. Passes for non-students are $40.

Students Challenge Letter from 'Oppressed'

Dear Jane and Dave, It's quite apparent that vou have memorized the "Ronald Reagan's last 40 years of history" tapes. Your recent Jetter of Sept. 25th to the editor reflects your Biff and Muffy routine. We refuse to believe that you speak for "the oppressed peoples of the world." Are you ,black South Africans, are you poor Cuban cane cutters, did you come from Watts, did you fight the French or the U.S. in Vietnam, or are you fleeing the death squads of El Salvador or the Contras? If you are, maybe you should have identified yourself as such, perhaps you might have been more credible. George Shultz and the right wing of the Republican party mouth these phrases, but, who in the Third World be1ieves them?

Somoza believed them, Pinochet believed them, the Shah of Iran believed them Batista believed them, and Botha, (The prime minister) of South Africa, spouts this same rhetoric. You are right, Aparth~icjj~Q~t a problem that can be solved in 30 minutes, but the white minority has frustr;ted the legitimate aspirations and human rights of black, colored, and Indian people in South Africa for the last sixty years. You're afraid that America will abandon the human rights of South

Africa after the overthrow of apartheid.

We say that the U.S. corporate investments and U.S. foreign policy has abandoned the human rights of people of color in South Africa. We think you're saying that America should stay out of the apartheid issue (in) South Africa.

America is not outside of the apartheid issue; the policy and investments that we mentioned are a cornerstone for the apartheid regime.

The problems that South Africa faces now may not be solved without violence, but really the only way to attempt to avoid that is the immediate recognition of the African National Congress, the release of aU political prisoners, and the establishment of "one-man/ one-vote" before South Africa turns into a blood bath.

Signed, John DeMerritt & Pamela Osborne MSC Coalition Against Apartheid Chris Thurner UCD Apartheid Awareness Group

Metro Poll C.a lled Humorous Editor, THE METRO POLITAN's random sample poll provides a candid insight into student opinions on campus issues. In the future, I hope you ask students what they know about Metro student government and whether participation is worth the effort. Another suggestion would be to ask students if they're utilizing their $28 activity fee investment each semester. lbe Sept. 4th edition asked four students if they knew who Paul Magelli was. The responses were humorous, but in a pathetic sense. So do students know the names of aU their instructors yet?

Keep up the good work.

DO~'T

PANIC ...

But don't be complacent either. Thousands of rumors are flying about registration for spring semester. Last year H.B. 1187, the bill reorganizing higher education, has dumped a mess in all of our laps by placing an enroHment cap of 10,257 Ful1 Time Equivalent (FTE) students on Metro State. You may have heard that last fall we turned applications away, this is true. You may also have heard that some students may not be allowed to re-enroll in the spring, this is only partly true. Through the use of some complicated mathematics, which I don't fully understand, enrollment for spring term will be managed (some say juggled) in order to accomodate as many students as possible.

It is imperative that you mail register.

Further, you should mail register for all the classes that you want. Walk-in registration and schedule readjustment will be very difficult this spring, so save yourself as much hassle as possible by mail registering.

Stop by the office if you need more information.

Homecoming is on the way. Metro has never had a homecoming before, so this is a new and exciting event. This year will establish the traditions that Metro Homecomings of the future will follow. If you have any brilliant ideas that you would like to see made a part of homecoming, come to the next homecoming committee meeting in the Student C enter, room 340 D, every Thursday, at 11:00 a.m.

Remember the Student Government office is open most of the day, so don't hesitate to stop by if you have any problems, complaints, questions, comments or observations.

One Students 69-Year Quest for Knowledge Jeremiah Lyon 路 Reporter

<.

MSC student Virginia Fyles

The quest for knowledge should never end.

Virginia Fyles, 69, has not come to the end of her quest, although she will graduate from Metropolitan State College with a B.A. in anthropology.

"Never look back," she said, "there's too much ahead."

Fyles looks ahead to a promising future and can look back on her Metro days with pride.

She has fit in well at Metro State, though most of her classmates could be her children. She never gave their ages any consideration, she said. ''I've met a lot of nice people here," she said, "I work with a lot of them, it did not make any d ifference that I was older."

"And as far as !eachers go, I've never

been made to feel any dfrferent from any other student. And I've always had really super cooperation with all my teachers. Never had one I didn't likeI've had a few I didn't understand, but don't we all?"

Fyles enjoys working with people, which was why she took anthropology, although she gives much of the credit for continuing her education to her youngest daughter, Melissa.

Melissa would bring her books on anthropology to Fyles and encourage her to finish the schooling she had put aside for 26 years.

Fyles attended the University of Missouri in 1942 and then the University of Colorado in Boulder. She then married and had three children, moved to Seward, Alaska, and ended her edu cation until 1978, when she moved to Denver after her child_ren were grown.

Since 1978 Fyles has attended MSC

and worked at Montgomery Ward as a clerk. She worked full time and had to schedule school around her work.

That created conflict with her children because she was sometimes forced to take night classes.

Jim, her eldest son, worried that she might run into trouble going at night.

"Jim did not want me to take night classes. He would come down and sit outside of the classroom door and waif for me," she said.

Now that her education is nearing the end, Fyles has been considering her options. She may transfer to C .U. and continue her education, or she may work in a museum. She is considering work with foreign children to help them adapt to life in the United States.

But whatever she does. look back.

The evening has been going well.

You went to a "meat bar" looking for recreational sex, and after a couple of hours drinking, talking and fulfilling subtle mating rituals, you found a willing partner.

Now you're back at the apartment sitting on the couch drinking a glass of ¡wine and listening to Boz Scaggs on the stereo. The couch seems to get smaller as you start working around each other's clothing, so you decide to move into the bedroom.

On the way down the hall, amidst fondling and kissing, your partner steps back and, with a sheepish look, says, "I think I should tell you that I have genital herpes. It can be sexually transmitted, and there is no cure for it."

The warning is unnerving, but neces- sary if you are to make an infor:med decision to abstain or risk infection.

ism; central nervous system damage; blindness; deafness; insanity; or death.

The disease can be cured if it is treated early enough, but detection can be difficult because a syphilitic infection has several latent stages when the symptom may disappear without treatment.

Chlamydia trachomatis, although a lesser known venereal disease, infects three million Americans every year, according to public health officials.

The symptoms of chlammydia are similar to those associated with gonorrhea. If left untreated, it can result in sterility in both nien and women. And it increases the danger of ectopic pregnancies, in which an embryo develops inside the fallopian tube instead of the uterus, resulting in the death of the embryo and sometimes the mother. According to statistics provided by the Auraria Student Health Clinic, 11,000 women become sterile, and 3,600 suffer ectopic pregnancies due to chlamydia every year.

sor of management at MSC, has written a paper outlining the legal duty under civil law to disclose the presence of a sexually transmittable disease (STD) prior to having sexual relations.

Taylor presented his paper at the Rocky Mountain Business Law Association's convention in Keystone, Sept.

2:7. About 50 business law professors from several western states are members of the association.

Taylor says there is a need for responsible disclosure by infected people because of the increasing number of STDs being reported.

"The instances of transmission are becoming more prevalent," Taylor says. "What we are dealing with is an epidemic."

Taylor's paper deals with six specific diseases: gonorrhea, syphilis, chlamydia trachomatis, genital herpes, chancroid and granuloma inguinale.

Nearly one million cases of gonorrhea were reported in the United States in 1983. The effects of the disease inc~ude fever, pains, vomiting, urethral infections, cervicitis (infections of a woman's cerix), heart tissue damage and sterility. Gonorrhea p;enerally can be cured with antibiotics, and condoms are considered an effective method of avoiding infection. But transmission still occurs frequently because the disease is often without symptoms.

Between 10 million and 25 million Americans suffer from genital herpes.

Products that limit the duration and severity of symptoms associated with genital herpes have recently been developed. But there is still no cure for the disease. Much of the trauma involved with a genital herpes infection is psychological, resulting from its easy transmission and life-long duration, Taylor said.

Chancroid and granuloma inguinale also are mentioned in Taylor's paper, but he classified them as "minor" sexually transmitted diseases because they have a relatively low incidence of transmission. Both are disfiguring diseases, causing the scarring and deterioration of genitalia, as well as damage to the urinary tract, liver and bones.

These sexually transmitted diseases have several things in common. They are all primarily transmitted through sexual relations. Because they often lack symptoms, an uninfected person generally has no way of seeing whether a sexual partner has an STD. And, with ' the exception of genital herpes, they are all curable.

The symptoms of syphilis include destructive lesions on the skin1 or in bones or any organ. It can result in damage to the aorta,-the major artery leading from the heart_:_; weakening of the heart wall resulting in an aneur-

Taylor says there have been no apellate decisions regarding wrongful transmission of a STD in Colorado.

But, he says, the judical grounds for such a case do exist through torts.

A tort is a wrongful act for which a

Because of dangers associated with these diseases, people infected with an STD should be required to disclose their infections to prospective sexual partners. Failure to do that can result in civil litigation.

ficiently publicized or understood," Taylor says. "The paper is basically examining where the Colorado courts will come out in cases involving STDs." In his paper Taylor states that a person who knows or "should" know about a STD infection has a responsibility to disclose that fact. By including people who "should" know about an infection, Taylor is placing the responsibility of disclosure on any person who "has knowledge of facts that would reasonably cause them to seek consultation.

"Especially with student populations, I think people need to favor respon-

sible disclosure," Taylor says.

B.J. Collard, director of the Auraria Student Health Clinic, agrees with Taylor on the need for disclosure among students.

"For the most part, students are really conscientious," Collard says. But, she adds, sexual promiscuity among college-age adults make containing the spread of STDs more difficult.

"When we (at the clinic) identify one problem with a client, we find ourselves dealing with four or five other people," Collard says.

The clinic uses a series of "protocols" that designate treatments and

consultation procedures for different health problems. Collard says she hopes to incorporate some of Taylor's suggestions into the protocols for STDs. Taylor says he wants to publish his paper with a model of legislation designed to protect wrongfully infected people, but he is not sure whether response to the paper or to the legislation will be positive. "ltmay be too politically sensitive," Taylor says. '1t generates a great deal of emotion.

"I don't know if the political system is courageous enough to openly discuss this." o

Agnes of God Contrasts 2 Worlds

Strong performances by Jane Fonda, Meg Tilly and Anne Bancroft are at the heart of "Agnes of God." Tom Deppe Reporter

-

I

I

.i '

Director Norman Jewison has once again brought to the screen an awardwinning play (last year it was "A Soldier's Story," Charles Fuller's Pulitzer Prize-winning, off-Broadway production). This time, in collaboration with playwright John Pielmeier, Jewison has taken on "Agnes of God," Pielmeier's Tony Award-winning Broadway play.

The movie's opening credits and scenes recreate. the stillness and tranquility of a convent, which is quickly dispelled by the screams of Agnes (Meg Tilly), a young novice nun, as she gives birth. Moments later the Mother Superior, Sister Miriam Ruth (Anne Bancroft), rushes in to find the newborn infant strangled and stuffed in a wastebasket.

Did Agnes murde r her child ?

Furthermore, how did she get pregnant in a cloistered convent, particularly when Agnes is as childlike and innocent as

she is? Is immaculate conception possible? These and other questions face Dr. Martha Livingston, (Jane Fonda) the court-appointed forensic psychiatrist assigned to Agnes' case.

Sister Miriam is determined to protect Agnes from Dr. Livingston's probing analysis, setting up a conflict between two strong-willed womenDr. Livingston and Sister Miriam. Faith, versus science and reason also enters into the scene and forms the undercurrents of "Agnes of God's" plot.

Just as the movie "Witness" portrayed the clash between a culture steeped in the past- the Amish- and our modern world, "Agnes of God" pits the thoroughly modern, professional women, as personified by Fonda's Dr. Livingston, against the traditional, religious lifestyle of Bancroft's Sister Miriam.

Much of the conflict between Sister Miriam and Dr. Livingston revolves around the Catholic church, as one woman attacks and one defends the faith. Some of the scenes are hilarious,

~ PENGUINS.

FORSALE

such as when Dr. Livingston reminisces about going to confession (being a fallen-away Catholic myself, I got a chuckle from that) , others are quite poignant.

In her role as Agnes, Tilly puts on an eerily convincing performance. One minute she's perfectly lucid and rational, the next she's off in a guiltridden, child-like world of her own, and always with an incredible beatific expression on her face. Is Agnes a perfect innocent, a child of God as Sister Miriam believes? Then, how does one explain her pregnancy? That question lies at the heart of "Agnes of God." Agnes is the focus of the struggle between Dr. Livingston and Sister Miriam. One is trying to uncover the rational truth and help Agnes, and the other wants to protect Agnes and to hide secrets. With the subtle twists and turns of its plot, "Agnes of God" makes for a taut murder mystery with some fascinating ecclesiastical overtones.

Sven Nykvist's cinematography adds immensely to "Agnes of God." With his images of crucifixes, fluttering doves, and subdued lighting fixed in my mind, I'm still wondering if immaculate conception was a possibr uty The movie also has an.mteresting set of special effects in which Agnes' hands suddenly take on the marks of the crucifixion, complete with nail holes and blood, was almost as upsetting as some of the stuff Linda Blair went through in "The Exorcist."

Although it lacks the power of "A Soldier's Story,""Agnes of God" will keep your attention focused on the screen with strong performances by Fonda, Bancroft and Tilly. It is a refreshing change of pace among this year's string of mindless comedies and "Rambomania." o

The Roadrunners beat Adams State, 3-1, and then lost a 3-2 decision to

Men's Soccer Regis College defeated-Metro Men's Soccer, 2-1, Sept. 24 by scoring two goals in the first half and holding off a late Metro rally.

MSC, now 1-3 in the conference and 2-5 overall, down 2-0 in the contest after the first half.

But the Roadrunners narrowed the margin 2-1 in the second half as freshman halfback Anthony Foster scored a goal. The rally fell short as the Regis defense halted several Metro scoring opportunities late in the game.

MSC coach Bill Chambers praised Metro defense, especially the efforts of senior Mike Politano and junior Dave Morgan.

Metro's next game is Saturday ag~inst Denver University at home. D

MSC had beaten the Air Force Academy Sept. 18, but was unable to defeat AFA in the tournament. AFA won the match 15-10, 7-15, 16-14 and 15-10.

The victory over DU was a wellbalanced attack, with the Roadrunners scoring 15-13, 15-10, 15-6 victories.

Donna Baros and Cathy Guiles each gave strong performances in the tournament.

Guiles turned in 16 kills (hits opponents are unable to return) in 31 attempts against Adams State. The

scoring in this match went 14-16, 15-3, 16-14, and 15-2.

Baros had an exceptional game against the Air Force Academy in returning as well as kills, 9 of 22.

Sue Hayes led the team· in assists during all four matches, including 44 assists in the game against UNC. The team lost, however, 3-15, 17-15, 1-15, 15-4, and 10-15.

Coach Pat Johnson said returning serves against the Air Force Academy was the biggest problem.

The women's record now is 7-4 overall. The women beat Western State

College, 15-5, 15-11 and 15-12 on Friday, Sept. 20. They also beat the University of Southern Colorado, 15-10, 15-11and15-13 on Tuesday, Sept. 24.
