Roadrunner Basketball Season Opener, Sunday

...

Photography by Alec Pearce

Coach Bob Hull

The team is ready.

See story page 12.

Duncan McCloud

So, MSC men's basketball team has a new head coach and high aspirations, and you're psyched for some serious roundball action.

Well, be prepared to learn the real meaning of the word "press" at the Roadrunners' season opener against Montana Tech this Sunday.

Game at McN ichols Cost .students Plenty MSC and Montana Tech will compete at 5 p .m. at McNichols Arena in an exhibition game prior to the Western Regional Finals of the Big Apple Tournament. But if you want to see the game, you will have to buy a ticket to the tournament.

Students with an MSC l.D. will get $3 off the price of a one-night ticket,

normally $8, $12 or $15. Or students can save $5 if they buy a ticket for both nights of the tournament- those tickets will cost non-students $15, $20 or $25.

Of course, if you're willing to spend the money, not to mention missing the Broncos against the Raiders, you will get to see basketball teams from the University of Kansas, the University of

Dennis Crawford Washington, the University of Texas at El Paso and Pepperdine University, which will compete in the tournament.

But the real scoring will happen in the McNichols Arena ticket booths when MSC fans feel the full-wallet press and pay from $5 to $20 to watch the Roadrunner's 1985-1986 season ~~~

ON CAMPUS Legislative Icebergs Await MSC's Unsinkable Cap Mark LaPedus Reporter

A plan to raise the Titanic-Metro's enrollment cap-was initiated in a meeting at the Student Center last week.

But this luxury liner remains submer_ged in the de~p and murky waters of the Joint Budget Committee.

Many student~ facing a sink-or-swim situation may be turned away from Metro next spring because of the cap.

Out of concern for those students, stu-

dents, faculty and an administrator at the meeting agreed the enrollment cap should be raised or removed.

This year, Metro is limited to 10,257 full-time equivalent students (FTES).

Many faculty and students want the cap lifted to 10,661 FTES, equalling Metro's enrollment two years ago, its highest ever.

But Jett Conner, faculty assistant to the vice president of Academic Affairs, said the legislature, like the icebergs that destroyed the Titanic, could damage Metro.

"I think the best way is to remove the cap completely," he said. "It's going to be hard to manage our fate when those who are imposing it are from the outside."

Others likened removing the cap to trying to drown the Unsinkable Molly Brown.

Frieda Holley, Faculty Senate president, said, "I can go for lifting the cap, but I don't think it's politically realistic to remove it."

Holley also reported that the Colorado Commission on Higher Educa-

A Piece A Pizza Aplenty When you need to appease a pizza appetite, how many pieces a pizza are appropriate?

It depends on the portion proportions of the pizza.

If it's Rocky Rococo Pan Style Pizza-thick, crunchy, chewy, cheesy, saucy Pan Style Pizza-a piece a person, in other words, a piece apiece is probably appropriate.

That's why Rocky Rococo Pan Style Pizza is available by the slice: That satisfying sizeable (1 /2 lb.) single serving size .

Whether you come call at our counter or drive through our Drive-Thru, The Slice is unfailingly fresh, fast and filling ; a luscious lighteninglike lunch; always available almost instantly.

So, when you need to appease a pizza appetite, appease it appropriately.

tion has proposed to raise Metro's cap to 10,520 FTES for the 1986-87 fiscal year.

"The JBC must approve that figure," she said. "But they hinted that it may take place."

The Joint Budget Committee also may raise the cap if Metro begins to require admission standards for beginning freshmen under age 20, many at the meeting said.

Chris Dahle, Metro student president, said incoming freshmen at Metro should meet some admission requirements.

"I think freshmen should have requirements," he said. "But I don't think the Joint Budget Committee will raise the cap unless we have standards."

During the meeting, most agreed that the Joint Budget Committee may be trying to build a new and improved version of the Titanic on the Auraria Campus.

According to Conner, this new ocean liner could take the form of a merger between Metro and UCD. "If a merger would come, Metro would probably be absorbed," Conner said. "And what class are you going to sail : first class, second class, or what?"

Metro Supplies Mid-Life Goals For Math Major Dale Thompson Regina Langton Reporter

r

...

Ask Dale Thompson for a self-evaluation, and he'll tell you he's just a "middle-aged cat go in' back to school."

This is a modest description from an intelligent and personable man-a 41year-old math major at MSC-and a perfect example of a non-traditional student at Auraria. · Thompson has worked at Burlington Northern Railroad for 17 years and now works as a clerk, inputting data into a computer. He is thankful for his job because it has allowed him to support his family, but school is the place he finds fulfillment.

After taking his first math class by correspondence from CU in 1975, Thompson studied at Red Rocks Com:munity College and UCD. Now a Metro student, he plans to finish his degree and eventually would like to teach at Metro.

Thompson's goals stem in part from his high regard for Metro, where he ,feels faculty ensure superior academic standards. He describes the MSC math department as capable, knowledgeable and helpful, citing Dr. Joseph Raab-"Doc" Raab as he is referred to

by Thompson-as a particularly competent teacher.

One of Thompson's accomplishments resulted from an assignment he received from Raab in April 1985.

Thompson and the rest of Raab's class were told to create a magic square-a square of numbers that add up to the same sum in a horizontal, vertical or diagonal direction.

Thompson created a square with 206 numbers vertically and horizontally, totaling 42,436 numbers in the. square. The sum of all numbers in a row is 4,371,0ll.

Although magic squares have been around for hundreds of years, Thompson's formula has never been documented. So he wrote a book to prove the formula.

"Written documentation is necessary to obtain real merit in the math community," he said, "because you must have proof that a theory will work."

Though some may deem mathematicians too staid, Thompson never seems to lose his sense of humor. Take the name of his book-publishing company-Barely Legible Press.

"Well, that's how my writing looks," he explained.

A simple magic square, all of the numbers horizontally, vertically and diagonally add up to 34.

When Thompson described the Auraria campus, he said it has a pulse all its own.

That's why he enjoys Metro more than any other college he's attended.

"I enjoy the sociological element of Metro-it has the feel of people in it," Thompson said. "The people are vastly more experienced, and there's not a pie-in-the-sky mentality." Metro is the ticket to success in today's times, Thompson said, and knowledge is the key to modern man's desires.

His family shares this attitude.

His wife, Mary, has completed a degree in English Literature at UCD and is now working on a degree in French.

His daughter, Mary Lynn, is a Metro art student. Thompson also has a 20-

Thompson and his wife travel to Metro from their home in Golden and lunch together between classes. They both enjoy what he calls the "varied ethnicity" of the people they meet at school.

Enjoying people as much as math, Thompson said he takes a light course load so he has time to appreciate campus life.

"You might as well smell the flowers along the way," he said.

Thompson said the knowledge he is gaining at Metro-in and out of classwill help him keep up with a younger generation.

Kwame Ture, a.k.a. '60s black-rights activist Stokely Carmichael ,is known for inciting both love and hate during his passionate speeches.

Metro felt Kwame's knack for controversy days before he stepped on campus Monday.

Jewish students and Anti-Defamation League workers last week attempted to block funding for Monday's lecture, pleading that student fees should not be used to pay for what they said would be an anti-Semitic speech.

Kwame, an associate of Louis Farrakon, a civil-rights activist accused of advocating violence, is openly anti Zionist, opposing the supposed racist policies of Israel. But members of the Black Student Alliance, who sponsored his Auraria appearance, argued that an anti-Zionist does not an anti-Semitic make.

The arena for the vehement debate was the ordinarily obscure and behindthe-scenes MSC Club Affairs Committee.

The four members of the MSC committee were surprised and admittedly intimidated when their usually quiet weekly meeting became a crowded and passionate debate.

On the table was the Black Student Alliance's request for $350, one-third of Kwame's speaker's fee. UCD and CCD also contributed.

"There was a lot of tension in the room," said committee member Alan Chimento. "It was tough making the decision right there in front of everybody."

After hearing both sides of the argument, the committee voted unanimously to approve the request and invited Jewish students to propose their own speaker to represent any opposing views.

Rabbi Avram Rothman, director of the Colorado Hillel House, the state's Jewish student organization, said he had received more than 15 calls from Auraria students protesting Kwame's appearance.

"This person's lecture could destroy years of work," Rothman said. "Jews continued on page 5

ON CAMPUS You Think You Have Money Problems

State Auditor Takes Auraria to Task Tom Smith Reporter

Auraria has money problems just like you. The difference is your problems are in the hundreds of dollars, and its problems are in the hundreds of thousands of dollars.

A State Auditor's Office review of AHEC records for the fiscal year 19831984 resulted in 16 recommendations for fiscal improvement at the Auraria Higher Education Center.

The audit revealed problems in how funds from the Tivoli were being used

by AHEC. AHEC's lack of weekly deposits made to the State Treasurer's Office, the fact that five of AHEC's 10 bank accounts were not receiving interest and that AHEC borrowed more money than it originally negotiated on.

Last year, AHEC received $48,000 in building rent from the Tivoli. AHEC used this money to repay student facility and parking bonds, as specified in bond covenants, the rules governing the use of bond money.

But the State Auditor's Office wanted the money to go into the State General Fund.

AHEC deposited $8 million into its

own bank accounts in 1984. From these accounts, AHEC is supposed to make deposits to the State Treasure's Office on a weekly basis. AHEC made 18, not 52 deposits, and in one instance held onto $300,000 for seven weeks, collecting the interest.

The audit recommended that "timely" deposits be made so the State Treasurer receives the interest.

You probably have one checking

be deposited into higher-interest accounts, the auditor criticized the amount of money AHEC borrowed.

When you go to the bank to borrow money, you leave with the amount agreed upon and not a penny more.

When AHEC went to the bank to borrow money for the Auraria Book Center it came back with twice the agreed amount.

In 1983, AHEC borrowed $1.2 mil-

When the audit ~d all the times AHEC borrowed money, it found, in 30 of the 45 cases reviewed, AHEC exceeded approved loan amounts. account and one savings account.

AHEC has six checking and four savings accounts.

The audit found five accounts received zero interest, and the other · five received no more than 7.25 percent interest. Four checking accounts received zero interest, and the fifth received 7.25 percent. Of the four savings accounts, three received 5.5 percent and one received 5.25 percent.

Besides recommending that funds

lion from the State Treasurer, a bank for AHEC. This amount was to be reduced by $2.3 million, not $1.1 million.

When the audit examined all the times AHEC borrowed money, it found, in 30 of the 45 cases reviewed, AHEC exceeded approved loan amounts.

The audit recommended that a plan be developed and adhered to that will gradually reduce the amount borrowed

..

by AHE.C to zero and ensure the amount borrowed will not exceed approved loan amounts.

Other recommendations included the following: • All cash should be deposited with the State Treasurer, not into accounts from which AHEC can write checks without prior approval from the State Treasurer.

• Checks from the Child Care Center and the Student Center should be restrictively endorsed (meaning specified "for deposit only") and deposited on a timely basis.

• The Auraria Book Center should stop cashing personal checks.

• All AHEC personnel files should be brought up to date.

• Fixed assets in the book center should not be depreciated.

• · A repayment plan should be developed for the money borrowed by the book center from the Student Facilities Revenue Bond Fund.

A final comparison-if the bank recommends you make your loan payment on time, you had better do so, but AHEC does not have to implement any of the 16 recommendations made by the State Auditors Office.

Employee of the Year Great American Smokeout

,

i.

Tired of getting smoke in your face?

Had enough dragon breath to last a lifetime?

Then Thursday, Nov. 21, is a date you'll want to remember.

The American Cancer Society is sponsoring its ninth annual Great Amer can Smokeout in an effort to pursuade smokers to kick the habit.

If you can do without your nasty weed for 24 hours, you have a good chance of giving up cigarettes for ever, the society says. !\'on-smokers can support their addic ed friends by being especially supportive of attempts to quit.

Preaching and scolding are taboo.

Offer money. Tell your friend that you will give him $500 if he quits smoking.

Failing this, send him to the Auraria Health Center's booth outside the Student Lounge on the second floor of the West Classroom Building from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Nov. 21.

Volunteers at the booth will offer advice on how to quit and information on several programs designed to ease the escape from tobacco addiction.

Programs will include an Adopt-aSmoker program designed to let nonsmokers help friends quit. A complete package containing guidelines on the program will be available at the booth.

For more information, call the Health D Center at 556-2525.

Everyone likes to be recognized for doing a good job.

Barb Weiske, Facilities Coordinator for the Student Center was chosen as the AHEC Employee of the Year last week.

Weiske was awarded a certificate of recognition and $100 for outstanding service to all AHEC divisions and the campus community. All AHEC personnel are eligible to be nominated for the award.

As facilities coordinator, Weiske's duties include assigning space for clubs, Student Center promotions, distribution of publications, allocating keys and assigning meeting rooms for students, faculty and staff on the Auraria campus. f 'Veiske said in addition to the cash and certificate, she received "a lot of pats on the back" from her co-workers

have given their lives during the civilrights protests in the South (during the '60s). And the blacks have helped the Jews at other times.

"We should be building bridges not walls, Carmichael (Kwame) is buildmg walls. He says we as Jews are evil people."

Rene Rabouin of the Black Student Alliance, defended the controversial views Kwame espouses.

"Judaism is a religion; we respect the integrity of religion," Rabouin said.

"But Zionism is a racist philosophy.

"Kwame'snot anti-Semitic; he's antiZionist. And he makes no apologies for that."

The main purpose of bringing K wame to campus, Rabouin said, was to tap the veteran civil-rights leader's experience as an organizer.

"He teaches the necessity for organization and for making people aware of what's going on around them. That's why we brought him here," Rabouin said.

MSC student president Christopher Dahle, who gave final approval of the expenditure, said he appreciated thecontroversy for controversy's sake.

"Anything that gets people to come up to the student-government office and bend my ear is great," he said.

OPINION In Politics and Poetry, Reality May Rest in Stars Bob Haas Yesterday, a fully accredited institution of higher education within the state of Colorado offered to test my retention and accretion concerning the facts defining the parameters of astronomical knowledge. The examination sought to discern the depths of my ability and willingness to hold, understand, and make meaningful the cold and indisputable facts surrounding the reality of our universe.

Having prepared for and consequently responded to the examination in

pitifully dismal fashion, I was reminded of a short poem, penned by Walt Whitman, "When I Heard the Leam'd Astronomer." Reflected Whitman: When I heard the leam'd astronomer, When the proofs, the figures, were arranged in columns before me, When I was shown the charts and diagrams, to add, divide, and measure them, When I sitting heard the astronomer when he lectured with much applause in the lecture room, How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick, Til rising and gliding out I wander'd off by myself, In the mystical moist night air, and from tim,e to time, Look'd up in perfect silence at the stars.

Athletic Director Likes It, Editor, I would like to thank you for the excellent coverage you have given this semester with regard to campus activities, events, plans and legislation affects. the college and campus.

I am especially appreciative of the extensive sports coverage you have provided. Scott Moore's article on the men's basketball tryouts, which was intuitive and creative, and the weekly "Games People Play," which does an excellent job of bringing athletic events to the attention of the student body, are just two examples of which I am speaking.

Your continued support is very much appreciated!

-William M. Helman Athletic Director

So Do We

We agree. Our sports editor, Scott Moore, is a freshman at Metro with only high-school newspaper experience. When he came in and applied for the ;ob, we obviously had our doubts.

When he demonstrated his enthusiasm and talents, we snagged him. Although Scott is fighting the constant battle of academic hot water that aU freshman face, we just pointed him to the athletic building and turned him loose.

He's given The Metropolitan the best sports coverage in many years.

How succint and adequate a comment on what it is we all do here at these institutions of knowledge, these institutions of higher education.

How fitting that a poet might reduce all of the educational fact finding and monkey business into this one concise reflection of looking "up in perfect silence at the stars."

How delightfully concise.

How applicable to the present struggle between the MSC administration, Joint Budget Committee (the powers that seem to be), and the students (the powers that seem to should matter).

What the students want is access to the egalitarian benefits of higher education. Pretty much, period.

What the JBC and the powers that be want is anybody's guess, but their desire apparently has something to do with the facts, figures, columns, entrance standards and otherwise nebulous ramifications of educational balances.

We all, of course, must b e made happy, whether we are members of Joint Budget Committees or professors of astronomy; we all must be made to accept the endeavors, pitiful or not, of those seeking to gain from our services.

If the Auraria concept is anything of value, it is an attempt to coalesce the needs and desires of a dynamic, urban community with the needs and desires of varied and knowledge seeking community members.

This admittedly idealistic goal should be sufficient, but like the astronomy professor who balks at our ignorance of the manipulation of an energy level diagram of hydrogen, the powers that be demand more justification of our academic endeavors.

Somehow, and sooner or not, it must be that our interest in knowledge, our desire to better ourselves, our simple and sincere looking "up in perfect silence at the stars" will suffice.

Sig ht less Eyes Glow With Life Regina Langton Reporter

"I have walked with people whose eyes are full of light but who see nothing in sea or sky, nothing in city streets, nothing in books. It were far better to sail forever in the night of blindness with sense, and feeling, and mind, than to be content with the mere act of seeing."

- Helen Keller, 1952

As I gazed into the azure blue eyes of a vivacious young girl sitting across from me, I could see the sense and feeling and mind that made her special.

Those eyes belong to 20-year-old La Verne Dell, a Metro student who has been blind since age two.

When cancer invaded La Verne's eyes, they had to be removed and were replaced with eyeballs of a medical plastic made and handpainted in South Dakota. One could never tell the eyes are not her own.

Judging from her ready smile, quick wit and the energy shining from her face, I could tell La Verne didn't think her sightless eyes were an obstacle to learning.

La Verne learned basic Braille in kindergarten-not an easy accomplishment at age five.

She gradually joined regular classes

â&#x20AC;˘

in public schools and graduated from _ Arvada High School in 1984. In addition to standard high school classes, La Verne had a tutor three to four times a week who taught her travel and translation skills.

In the fall of 1984, La Verne spent her first semester of college at the University of Colorado in Greeley-only to decide that Greeley and dorm life were not for her.

"I like to have fun just as much as the next guy, but the dorms were just too loud and noisy. Students weren't friendly. They seemed like they were just out to prove their independence from their parents," she said.

LaVerne then gained more independence by visiting the State of Colorado Rehabilitation Center for the Blind and Deaf. She wanted to prepare herself for big city travel-the travel she might encounter during her time at Metropolitan State College.

She then signed up for the 1985 summer session at MSC and took CPR/First Aid and Ecology, which she enjoyed.

"I enjoy being on the Metro campus because the people at MSC are so friendly and helpful, very sociable," she said.

La Verne also said that she enjoyed her Ecology class, due in no small part to her love of nature and the outdoors .

Much of her life has been spent outdoors. From age 10 to 18, LaVerne participated in the Winter Park Ski Program for the Blind, an extraordinary hobby because, as she said, "for eight years I trusted by body to someone else."

While heading downhill, an instructor would guide LaVerne on the slopes by yelling instructions.

LaVerne laughingly said she will never forget the time a novice instructor hollered "left" when it should have been "right," and she smacked into a tree.

She would like to ski again, but right now La Verne makes college her mairi challenge.

This semester at MSC, La Verne is enrolled in a philosophy class.

A Star Trek fan from way back, LaVerne took philosophy to "find out how they got all of those crazy ideas into Mr. Spock's head!"

La Verne started the fall semester with a busy schedule. She had another class and a job with the Denver Post soliciting newspapers by phone from 5 to 9 p.m.

The job seemed ideal for La Verne.

So full of personality and cheer, she sounds as if she could sell ice cubes to an ~s~imo in January.

Unfortunately, even after dropping a class, La Verne found her job too time consuming, so she quit to concentrate on schoolwork.

LaVerne takes class notes in Braille, using a stylus and slate for writing. She tried taping classes and playing them back for translation at home, but that took too much time.

"It was like sitting through class twice," she said.

Her teacher and fellow students are helpful and thoughtful-often re-reading chalkboard or overhead notes and spelling out names. For this she is grateful.

When asked what she is most grateful for in life, La Verne said, without a doubt, her family.

"They have given me the motivation to try and do a lot of things," she said.

How true. From skiing downhill to finding her way across a city college campus, LaVerne Dell does it all with verve and a desire to learn.

LaVerne and many other visually impaired persons at Auraria appreciate the assistance they receive in getting around campus. If you see a blind person in need of help, offer yours. Just follow a couple of basic rules. First, ask if he would like your help; then ask what you can do. Speak directly to the individual-make sure he knows you are speaking to him.

Mark Manning

Lisa Jean Silva Reporter

The following account is a memory.

It belongs to a soft-spoken man at peace with himself. He is Ylark Manning, 34, landscape artist, first-year Metro student and born-again Christian.

Calm and unpreposessing, Mark tells this story only because he is asked. An occasional frown or sudden hurry of words are the only hints of residual pain or sorrow. The setting is Kansas City, Kan., 1968.

"We were out at a lake-the last day of (high) school-type thing-partying and all, and, ah, it was about as high as this (campus-library) ceiling, maybe 15 feet high-a cliff at a lake where you're not supposed to be swimming, a lake where all the kids did swim.

"We dove quite a few times, and it was -came in-too close to the shore.

I think maybe to a-as I recall, it went off to the side of the peak-the point where we were jumping. Just maybe 10 feet off to the side, and, ah, I'd really have to go back over that because I'm just not sure, but as I recall, a friend of mine said, 'Let's try it over here.'

"And, he really took it hard because I went first, and, you know, had the injury, and I think he ended up really having serious mental problems and all. You know, I didn't. I never had that myself. You would think I would have, more than he. He kind of leaned that way anyway as a person. He was kind of shaky. (Pause.) So it was really hard on him.

"So I came in too close to the shore and hit some rocks, which, you know, broke my neck.

- "And then also, he was the first one who came down- oh, they all-all the guys came down the cliff. They had to. There was no shoreline. It was just straight up and down. And they had to borrow a boat....And then, in putting

me in the boat, you know, I couldn't move at all, so I think he was jostling .. my head and neck a lot so - which again makes him think he, you know, caused some of the problems.

"They rowed me over to the shore.

That's the first thing I remember. I do remember hitting bottom. :-Jot any pIDn.

~

"But I remember hitting and just seeing light green - like the sun coming through the water. I h<.>ld my breath as long as I could. I couldn't figure out why I couldn't move.

"And the next thing I remember is • being on the shore, and I could feel the dirt and rocks on the back of my neck and shoulders. And it hurt, you know, and I was trying to get up, and I thought they were holding me down. I thought I'd been in a fight or something."

Mark's mother, a few of his 10 siblings and his buddies were at the hospital. Mark kept telling everyone, "It's OK, it's OK." His head was cracked open and bleeding as he spoke.

Mark says his family and friends suffered more than he. He was "always easy going."

Mistakes, accidents, tragedies.

Some of us never get over them. Some do. Some, like Mark, make remarkable recoveries.

"I did wake up some nights pretty J scared and lonely," he says, "but I never suffered any deep depressions over it."

Mark's accepting attitude and nebulous faith were his tickets to transcendence. He never doubted that he would make it.

For a few years though, the former "wild" kid wanted definition. He waxed philosophical. . "Because of my condition," he says, "I have plenty of time for that." Mark wondered and sought, and finally r found the deeper faith that enhances him today.

f.. I

:r;

You've been waiting all year to hit the slopes.

The alarm goes off at 6 a.m., and you crawl out of bed and stagger to the shower, wishing you hadn't hung around for last call the night before.

Once out of the shower, you pull on your ski togs and head out to the car.

It's 7 a.m.

First stop - Village Inn for breakfast.

An hour later, you're at the corner gas station.

Fill the snow beast with gas and blast up I-70 Westat70mph so you can make those first tracks on the back bowls.

Thirty minutes later, you're cruising through Georgetown, moving it out, when a flashing red light b ehind you grabs your attention.

Smokey the Bear wants to talk to you.

"Eighty in a 55 zone. Boy, that's going to cost you," Smokey says.

"Shee-it," you say (very quietly).

Back on the road again, it's 9 a.m ., and you know that some other fool is riding the lift, getting ready to cut your powder.

That's cool, though, because you know some out-of-bounds areas that are really steep and deep.

You pull into the parking lot, and some guy in a ski-area jacket tells you the lot is full.

"Head down this road about a mile," he says, "and you'll find a place to park -maybe."

"Bullshit," you say. ''I'll just park around this here corner.

Nobody will notice.''

Grab the boards and run to the ticket office. Buy a lift ticket, jump into your Langes, and you're on your way. lfs 10 a.m.

You step into your boards, grab your poles and skate up to the lift.

As you enter the lift line, it looks as if everybody and his brother is in line ahead of you. It's 10:15.

It seems like it has taken forever, but you finally get on the lift. The guy riding with you is wearing $1,000 worth of clothing and equipment, so you figure this cat must be pretty hot on the slats. It's 10:45.

"Hey ya'll, great day to be on the hill," he says. "This is my first time on skis. I can't wait to ski the black diamonds."

At the top of the lift, your partner starts turning green.

"How do you get off this thing," he screams.

You chuckle, make some snide remarks about geeks and move it out.

Meanwhile, the expert-run enthusiast tumbles down the ramp, skiis crossed, legs twisted, fancy togs in disarray.

Behind you, screams froin the poor souls taken out by the tumbling fashion plate echo from peak to peak.

"Serves that chump right," you think.

"Now to get to the upper lifts."

Turn, turn, tuck this sucker. You gotta get the speed up so you won't have to walk the flats. As you blast along, dodging geeks and snowplow-

Stunning scenery, easy access, short lift lines, hundreds of thousands of spectators to admire expensive ski outfits, and a downtown fu)l of apres ski facilities make Auraria Denver's most popular ski resort. ,

ers, some clown in a red coat flags you down.

"Young man, you are skiing too fast for this part of the mountain," he says.

"Put this red sticker on your lift ticket."

You wonder what the hell this red sticker means. Oh well, no biggee.

You're at the upper lift.

The line's a little shorter here, but still to long. It's now 11:30.

By the time you get on the lift and ride it up, it's lunch time.

Into the lodge at the top of the mountain, grab a burger and a beer -scarf and slam - back to the bar for a couple more brewskis. And a couple more.

Time to get back on the slopes. You wobble out of the lodge and grab your boards. Man, everything is kind of fuzzy.

It's casual. That fresh mountain air is clearing your head like a shot of straight oxygen.

As you head toward the rack where you left your boards, some twit withilis skiis over his shoulder spins around, cracks you a good one on the head

.l'c

with his skiis and saunters off.

Damn geeks, you just can't get away from them.

The mountain is jam-packed with people. You came up here to make first tracks on that beautiful Colorado powder. Time to head out of bounds.

A quick scan of the area for skipatrollers, and it's under the rope and into the steep and deep.

You're in heaven. It's like floating through clouds. This is what skiing is all about. Just you and the mountain; gravity does the work, and you have the fun. And there's not a geek in sight.

You have the whole mountain to yourself. Could anything be better?

This beats sex. Well, maybe.

Time to get back on the open part of the mountain. Uh-oh, there's Mr.Ski patrol.

"Come over here, son," he says.

"What is this on your ticket? A red warning sticker. I'm afraid I'll have to ask you to leave the mountain. Follow me to the bottom, please. Oh, yes, give me your lift ticket."

Wonderful. Just freaking wonderful.

.. â&#x20AC;˘

ti.

Back at the bottom, you head back to the bar for one or five for the road.

Better get out of here. At this rate, the next thing will be a DUI. You pick up your boards and head for the parking lot.

Back to the car, but it's not there.

The guy working the lot tells you they towed all the cars parked along the road. He directs you to the towing company and mentions a $50 towing

fee.

Wonderful.

You finally get your car back, 50 bucks poorer. It's a good thing you've got credit .

Take a nice, easy cruise home, never exceeding the speed limit. For once you get lucky - no tickets, no problemo.

After standing in line for hours, being harassed by geeks and getting your car towed, you think about next weekend. Will you hit the slopes again after all the crap you went through today?

You bet your ass you will.

No guts, no glory. Go for it!

· Rewtt Tice RetkfeM The Colorado Legislature passed •e Ski Safety Act in 1979 in an attempt 1curb injuries by making skiers more ware of proper slope behavior. th:is year, ski-patrol members will e handing out citations to unsafe ders-two tickets, and the skier will >Se his daily lift pass.

The act requires skiers to follow iese rules: Itefrain from dangerous behavior lat could cause injuries.

Don't ski on slopes marked closed.

Obey all signs and warnings.

Don't use slopes or trails while npaired by alcohol or drugs.

Don't throw objects from lifts.

Use the lifts safely.

Ski-area representatives have blamed the increasing lift prices, to some degree, on their high liability costs due to increased injuries and deaths on the slopes each year.

"Throughout the ski season on a day-to-day basis, all Vail Associates Ski Patrol personnel trail-crew members and host/ hostesses will be involved in a strict preventative patrolling-andenforcement program to, hopefully, lessen the number of careless skierrelated injuries," said Skip Cadoo, foreman of Vail's special-events and trail-crew.

5MILLION AMERICANS

ARE LOOKING

IN THE WRONG PLACE FoRHELP. Do you go to the refrigerator even though you're not really hungry? Do you keep eating long after you're full?

Chances are, your insatiable hunger is for something more than food.

You could be one of the millions of people who use food to fill an emptiness inside. A feeling of rejection. Frustration.

Or loneliness.

Yet the more vou eat. the lonelier and more unhappy you become. It's a vicious cycle. But it's not your fault.

It's a serious disease called Bulimia or Bulimarexia.

1\o one can recover by themselves. Willpower doesn't help. Dieting and pills only make it worse. Even therapy isn't always successful in treating eating disorders.

<

Ours is one of the nation's leading eating disorder programs. It's successful because we treat our patients' physical, social, spiritual, and psychological needs.

And we help them to recover in an atmosphere of warmth and caring.

WOULD YOU FOOT THE BILL FOR A RACIST? You just did and didn't even know it.

On Monday, November 18, the students of UCD, MSC and CCD paid Kwame Toure (a.k.a. Stokely Carmichael) to speak on the Auraria campus. Toure, a civil rights activist in the '60s, founded the All African People's Revolutionary Party.

Why were student fees used to finance Toure's visit here when many students, some of whom are the targets of his anti-Semitic views, are highly offended by his bigotry?

Which is not to say that Toure does not have the right to exercise free speech at Auraria. Free speech is a cherished tradition of our great country and is guaranteed b y the Constitution. If Toure had financed his appearance, the only objection would be to his repulsive message.

When Toure, who has appeared with Minister Louis Farrakhan, says, "It was Jewish c'a pital which financed slavery and the slave trade," we object.

When Toure says, "It was Jewish capital which financed the invasion and colonization of Africa, the Middle East and the Western hemisphere," we object.

When Toure says, "(Jews) use their money, their power, the FBI, CIA, IRS, the courts and prisons and many other ways to control and destroy (black) movements, leaders and people," we object.

You should object, too. For when anybody preaches racism- in any form- all of us feel pain, w}:iatever one's color, ethnicity or religious affiliation. Racism hurts everyone and closes the gateways to understanding and friendship.

Racism stinks and we do not want to pay to hear it at Auraria.

'Despite Disability,

Student's Faith Keeps HiniRolling therapy at the University of Kansas Medical Center. His mind was cared c 19for by himself and his God. Mark was on a spiritual journey. Then in 1972, "the Jesus people got to me," he says.

An open-minded Christian, Mark does not condemn those whose beliefs differ from his. He'll sip a beer now "and then, and the church he attends allows members to question biblical passages.

Mark says he finds security in and derives strength from his personal committrnent to Christ and in the literature of the Bible. He believes in •fore-ordination and the goodness of God, no what-ifs, ands or buts. His faith keeps him purposeful, and he believes what St. Paul told the Coring thians: " ... Be steadfast, immovable, ) always abounding in the work of the ,Lord, knowing that your toil is not in vain in the Lord."-I Corinthians, 15:58.

Mark's accident left him, as he sees it, with the use of his head, neck and right shoulder and the partial use of his right arm. '

He had to teach his right shoulder muscles to move that arm. With it, he can feed himself, turn the pages of a book and push the buttons that open doors and summon ele.vators. With a hand brace, Mark can paint and sketch .end write.

He pushes his hand into the brace's taped oval, brings the hand to his mouth and, with his teeth, winds the velcro strap around his hand. At the outer edge of the brace is an extension that holds either paintbrush, pen or fating utensil.

Mark is thin, has reddish-gold hair and trim beard. His eyes are blue as cornflowers. He sits, dignified, in his wheelchair-a Jennings Electric 3P. A stick controls direction, and a twospeed switch selects 2 mph or 4.8 mph. ,,. On campus, friends say hello. One young man walks up, calling Mark's name and, with obvious admiration, shakes his hand.

His lunch is a sandwich and chips, packed by the nurse who visits his ~ome daily. On the back of his chair is half-gallon of distilled water, which he sips through a hose.

"I drink a lot of water," he says. "I have to flush my kidney. I had one removed because of calcium deposits." Because Mark gets so little exerd'ise, his bones don't use calcium norIJlally. The excess sometimes forms dangerous deposits (stones). Drinking a lot of water and taking other health precautions are routine to him.

Mark is always on the alert for b,edsores-the pressure injuries bone causes flesh when left in one position too long. He must be shifted in his chair regularly, and he must force himself to lie down during some waking hours.

"That's hard to do sometimes," Mark says. "There are times when I want to be doing something else .... But if you get a (bed)sore, it takes so long to heal, you end up lying down all the time."

In the campus lounge, Mark talks about the classes he's taking and his goals. Principles of Design and a geology course are this semester's initiation. He's signed up for five classes in the spring.

'Tm learning to work with other art forms," he says. "Mostly, I've painted with watercolors, and I want to learn other techniques."

In Kansas City, about three years after the accident, Mark says he began to paint seriously. He displayed his work for the first time there in 1976, after that, he had one show a year.

Each time he sold nearly all his paintings.

"I guess you could say I'm successful at it, but I can't make my living from it.

Few artists do,"he says. "What I'd like is to have an art supply/framing store one day and paint on the side."

Mark moved from his birthplace a year ago, and has lived with his brother Keal, sister-in-law Bonnie and nephew Joseph in Lakewood since then.

"The care they give me is excellent," he says. Neal drives him to school Tuesdays and Thursdays, and Mark rides an . RTD van home in the afternoons.

"It is kind of difficult when you have to dep ~nd so much on others," he says.

"Especially now that I have more outside appointments to keep. But so far it's worked out great. And I guess everyone has to depend on people."

On a recent Saturday, Mark was at home in bed. His wheelchair was to have been picked up for maintenance and the attachment of a device that will enable Mark to lean himself back and up.

A rustic, airy room, lined with books and massive antique furniture had been added onto the suburban tri-level. This was Mark's area. He faced a wall-size photo of gold-leafed trees in a sunlit forest. The patio doors on either side of his bed were open in hopes that a confused sparrow would find its way out. It cheeped, fluttered and perched on chairs, carpet and stairs and seemed to feel at home. After an hour of fruitless but cheerful pecking, it finally wandered out and flew away.

If he could have, Mark would have gone, too.

"I do enjoy getting out by myself to the park, taking a ride (in the chair).

There are two nice ponds near here ....

I'd also like to see more ballets, art galleries, that type of thing.... You know:, school is not the only place to learn.

Mark says he is ready for more risks and growth.

Artistically, this means tapping his creative process.

"My art is very imitative now," he says. ''I'd like to be more creative, to do something from inside me. What I mean is that I always look at something and duplicate. It's not too creative."

Mark's realistic renderings of houses, trees, alleys and the small-town buildings of St. Peter's Parish in Kansas

City, do please him, however. He learned in recent years to capture the beauty of his surroundings in his work.

"The (parish) is really a pretty little neighborhood. I finally realized that you don't have to go to Paris or New England to find beauty. I overlooked that for many years."

His venture to a new state and school was another risk, although Mark says he feels very much at ease in public and that he puts others at ease.

This is true even with the women in whom he takes a special interest.

'Td say that the options do become more limited. But your (a handicapped person's) attitude will dictate a lot in that.

'Tve had relationships with a number of different girls-nothing very serious.

Not until about two or three years ago did I even consider getting married.

But more recently, I am looking toward that. You know some of my goals are to have an art store and paint, and rd need some help with that. It would be ideal to be married. I told that to one of my instructors, and there was a girl there listening to us, and she said, 'Well, you know, you cpuld always just hire someone. You don't have to get radical!'"

Mark figures that if God has someone in mind for him, she'll show up.

There are religious risks to take as well. The pastor at Word In Praise Fellowship, which Mark attends, is "rethinking a lot of things. He's kind of challenged us. There are questions ... .! mean, like, 'Is Hell Eternal?' Would God actually put someone in bell for eternity? ... .In some churches you couldn't do that. You'd be handed your walking papers. But we're beginning to allow each other to do that."

"We can't know everything, only God can," Mark said after more discussion. His firm belief that he is chosen and part of a plan sustains him.

A couple of years ago, one of Mark's brothers was killed in a freak accident.

At that time, Mark said, he suffered a crisis in faith. He was "nearly psychotic" with the grief and anguish that followed. Again, his faith saw him through. Again, he cited Paul's first letter to the Corinthians: "No temptation has overtaken you 'but such as is common to man; and God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you ·are able; but with the temptation will provide the way of escape also, that you may be able to endure it."

Faith in the truth of this assertionthat all we have to bear is bearablehas served people of all religious and non-religious persuasions, providing the strength to endure.

For Mark Manning, Christian stoic, Paul's promise is comfort enough.

Of this kind of faith, a secular saint once wrote: " 'Not everybody feel religion the same way. Some it's in their mouth, but some it's like a hope in their blood, their bones.' " - from the poem, "Oh, Yes" by Tillie Olsen.

SPORTS Four Musketeers Go Out in Style Debbie Temmer Reporter

You may have heard about the Three Musketeers-how they worked to gether, played together and always seemed to be together.

versity last Friday, bringing their overall record to 30-16 and their conference stats to 11-3.

It was a great way to end four years of playing together. Before the game started, they were honored in a Senior Appreciation Night ceremony.

All four women agreed they had mixed feelings about the last game.

'Tm both relieved and sad-sad because it was our last game and relieved because we won't have to work out anymore," Baros said.

"It's depressing, it's weird .... "Mohr said. "In a way, it's like I'm losing part of them. It's hard. But I know that Kathy, Donna and Sue will always be there for me."

Hays agreed.

"It's like a big part of our life is going to come to an end, and it's kind of upsetting. On the other hand, it's kind of exciting because we can go and concentrate on our careers."

And careers are very much on their minds.

Hays would like to teach P.E. or · coach. Guiles would like to work in a design studio as an art advertiser. Baros plans to either coach or teach high school. And Mohr, who's majoring in Biology, is interested in doing laboratory research.

But they will always have good memories about their years together on the team. They all said the bond they made in four years is what helped them in their game.

"The friendship we've developed was really special. As far as playing is concerned, you get to know a person very well," said Hays. "So you get to know little quirks about them and what makes them play harder-what they can't stand you doing and basically just getting to know them is the best part."

Guiles also thought their friendship was one of the best things about their volleyball seasons.

"You get to know them really well, and they're just like sisters,'' Guiles said. "And I think (our friendship) helped as far as our game went. ... and last year was a pretty good season, but it seems this year has clicked a little better." o

New Coach Ready for MSC Challenge Brad Dunevitz Reporter

Donna Baros, Cathy Guiles, Teri Mohr and Sue Hayes Well this is is a story about four women who started playing volleyball together at MSC four years ago.

Not only have they become lifetime friends but they've led the team to several winning seasons-including this year's.

Donna Baros, Catherine Guiles, Sue Hays and Teri Mohr ended their college volleyball years together in a game against Eastern Montana Uni-

"The bird is bad."

Shakespeare couldn't have said it better.

Confucius would be envious.

And you won't find the quote in any history book.

But there it is in black and white.

Bird-as in MSC Roadrunners. Badas in tough.

The quote makes sense. The MSC women's basketball team is back, and they are tough. And first-year coach Cindy Guthals, the author of the quote is leading the invasion.

"The people here are more like the people I grew up with," Guthals said.

"New Mexico and Colorado ... are more clown to earth. More friendly."

Her coaching friends advised her to work "tons of summer camps," get involved at clinics and meet people.

But first and foremost-they said, take advantage of any break you can.

Guthals' break came.

Four head-coaching jobs became vacant: at Denver University, University of l\ orthern Colorado, Fairbanks, Alaska and Metro.

"I just saw a lot of possibilities to develop a strong program (at Metro)," Guthals said. "With President Magelli and meeting him and the things he wants to do with the athletic program here, plus the Athletic Director (Bill Helman) has been very supportive. It's going to be a long uphill climb, but I think there's a lot of possibilities for a good program here."

"I just wanted this job so bad; it was my shot for college coaching ... ! was willing to give up my full-time job,'' Guthals said.

Guthals set some high, yet realistic goals for the team in the upcoming year.

Roadrunners Ready ·To Hit Court Rob Ritter Reporter

They've spent hours and hours finetuning their offense, perfecting defense and practicing shooting, dribbling and conditioning drills.

Now, after countless jump shots, layups and free throws, the MSC men's basketball players are ready to play for real.

"The guys are real excited for the season to start," said head coach Robert Hull. "They are very determined to have a good year."

Hull has set two goals for bis team: "Our main goal is to have a basketball program and team that the administration, faculty and students can be proud of,'' he said. "And on the court, we want to be better defensively than the best defensive team we play this year."

The team's first game is l\ov. 24 against Montana Tech at Mcl\"ichols Arena. The game will start at 5 p.m., preceding the Western Regional Championship game of the pre-season ="Jational Invitational Tournament.

The Roadrunners will play at least part of the year without last year's leading scorer, Herb Darden.

Darden injured his foot the day

before practice began and will miss at least the first eight games.

"You obviously miss a player who averaged 19 points a game last year," ·Hull said, "but I think it will make the rest of the team play that much harder."

Hull, in his first year as head coach, also said the team needs student support.

"I think if every student could attend one ballgame, we could bring them back to the program. We can't be a top program without student support," he said.

Senior forward Ambrose Staughter, one of five seniors on the team, echoed Hull's thoughts.

"I encourage students to come out and watch us play,'' Slaughter said.

"We have great players and the talent to be a great team."

After the Montana Tech game, the Roadrunners will play Adams State Dec. 6 at 8 p.m. in the Auraria Gym. They then play the University of Puget Sound Dec. 7 at 6:30 p.m. in the Auditorium Arena.

Get Your Tickets Here Scott Moore Sports Editor

Now you don't have any excuses for not watching the MSC men's basketball team.

Student Sports Promotions will be giving away tickets in the Student Center to all of MSC's home games.

"I think big things are gonna happen this year already,'' she said. 'Tm not looking to take them to the national championship this year because I think that's a little unrealistic.

"My goal for this season is to be .500-at minimum."

Those words may seem hard to believe, especially for a team that was 1-20 last year.

"I think it is very realistic for us to be very strong within the next three years,'' she said. "Just build a little bit of strength each year."

In the strength-building process, meetings were set-up, books were read, letters were sent and calls were made to increase Guthals' knowledge of the continued

Men's Soccer Takes 3rd Scott Moore Sports Editor

..:

A sweet ending to the regular season was soured for the men's soccer team when it was soundly defeated by Bethany Nazarene, Okla. 4-0 in the opening round of NAIA Regionals in Wichita Falls, Texas last weekend.

The Roadrunners bounced back the next day to record a 3-0 victory over St. Mary's, San Antonio, Te.xas, to take home a third-place finish in the tournament.

Paving the way for MSC were Greg

Sumlin, Martin Richardson and Mike Wachter, each netting one goal.

Coach Bill Chambers admitted obvious disappointment in the opening loss.

"We didn't play as well as we could have," he said. "We didn't get the breaks, and we missed some really good opportunities. They (Bethany) had some beautiful goals, though."

Chambers said overall, the team's weren't that good and said the loss to Bethany made the Roadrunners look D worse than they really were.

Swim Teams Drop Two

"

The MSC men's and women's swim teams lost their first two meets of the season, one to DU and the other to CU. The team's coach attributed the loss to Metro's lack of swimmers.

"The team swam well in the last two meets, but we're lacking in numbers of people," coach John Bockstahler said.

Swim meets are scored by pointsfive points for first, three points for second and one point for third. When a team lacks swimmers, it can't place in all events.

MSC lost 59-54 to DU and 62-48 to CU. Bockstabler said both teams were tough opponents.

The coach praised Sean Wendt, whom he said did well in the Individual Medley 400 against DU. On the women's team, Laurie Drain did well in the 100 freestyle swim event.

Both teams are accepting members and anyone interested in competitive swimming and diving is welcome, Bockstahler said.

The team practices in the AW-aria pool from 3-5 p.m. daily.

The swimmers will compete against Colorado School of Mines on Saturday at MSC. -Susan Brent

Women's Basketball Coach Looking for Support continued from page 12

'

league and to "learn as much about Metro as possible."

The men's basketball team also has a new coach-Robert Hull. The rapport between the two new kids on the block has been satisfying. They've talked about types of offense and NCAA rules. As the saying goes, two heads are better than one.

Although men's basketball is highlighted at MSC, Guthals feels in the Jong run all publicity can help women's basketball as well as the school in general.

"I think we can create the excitment," Guthals said. "We need, not only to develop excitment, but a pride in going here; a pride in supporting the

athletic program."

"The main tliiug I'm looking for is support, physically," she said. "I just want to get people excited about bas- . ketball. I want to get them real excited so they come and watch us play.

"Denver is a very sports-minded community and we really don't have any one college team that we support around here." she said. "I think it's there for us if we just get it going. (We) just need to get that basketball fire in their eyes."

Right now that fire is being kindled, and for the MSC women's basketball team, the heat is rising.

The women's basketball team plays its first game Nov. 22 at home against o Ft. Lewis at 7 p.m.
