The Space Symposium held last week at the elite Broadmoor Hotel in Colorado Springs was sponsored by the United States Space Foundation. The foundation is a non-profit organization established as a private space initiative and does not involve itself in political activity. But the chairman of the foundation - is Rep. Ken Kramer, D-Colo., an ardent star wars promoter, and one of its chief financial backers is the Coors Foundation. The literature billed this symposium as meeting the challenge of the new and exciting frontier of space. Only three of the 10 sessions were structUred as a debate of opposing views and, indeed, many issues related to space were insufficiently addressed, and so, the Space Foundation's claims about _this gathering being a symposium are dubious. The conference attended mostly by military officers and executives from corporations-not surprising because the price of admission was $430 with $16 lunches, and only the press could get in without charge. The first of 10 sessions was titled

"Space and National Security." The panel consisted only of high-ranking military officers, thus ensuring that the question of national security would only be addressed as a military problem. LlGen. James A. Abrahamson, the man in charge of the Strategic Defense Initiative, or star wars, gave glowing reports about the programs progress. According to the general, star wars is gaining widespread support from the American people and in Congress, and he was optimistic about the program's eventual success in spite of its recent budget cuts. To validate his optimisim, he disclosed some of star wars technical breakthroughs. What his examples told me was that the promoters of SDI will exaggerate even the most minor technical feats into "breakthroughs", thus assuring the public that SDI is making progreys. One of the facts about star wars is it will cost billions and other federal programs, such as student loans and grants, need to be cut or eliminated to make room for SDI. When Abrahamson was asked about trade offs, he said that this was not his decision or responsibility, but that this question continued on page 4

Robin Heid In responding to Mr. Hendey's remarks about the Space Symposium, I had hoped tq add another dimension to his discussion of strategic defense and the role space-based technology might play in it. But Mr. Hendey didn't discuss strategy; he whined about the price of lunch. And he didn't talk about technology; he presented a series or puerile political . , pontifications. Unfortunately, this kind of unfocused blither is all too representative of what passes for debate these days about the desirability, feasibility and character of President Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative. It is unfortunate becaU8e there is a pressing, almost urgent, need that we examine these, the fundamental premises · of any argument, before we embark on a socio-economic journey that may forever change America and the world. Desirability hasn't really been adequately examined. The pro-SDI folks, led by the President, have said that SDI is desirable because it is a system that kills weapons, not people, and that it will render nuclear weapons obsolete. The anti-SDI side says it is undesiJ::able because it won't be a 100 percent solution, that it will cost too much, and that it will be "destabilizing." Both camps avoid or miss the essential strategic question: do we maintain our national security by holding fast to deterrence-to the idea of Mutual Assured Destruction, or do we seek to move from that premise to one of defending ourselves from attack but not seeking to terminate the attacker? Now, MAD has been deemed a counter-factual proposition that doesn't admit of proof, but it has worked. And MAD is, essentially, the nation state equivalent of telling somebody, "try to hurt me and I'll kill you." But deterrence, either nation state or personal, has never sat well with wimps,· pacifists and nuke freezers. F01: them, it is unimaginable to think that the arming of nation states and individuals might serve the cause of peace better than disarming them. And so for years, they complained about the insanity of deterrence-and pushed for arms control on a nation state level and gun control continued on page 4

ON CAMPUS Studio A Leaves Broadcast Students in Dark Jessica Snyder

Reporter

Beneath the Auraria Library at the end of a long white hallway, Studio A glistens with television cameras, track lighting, sound boards, and video monitors. Many a broadcast or video-arts student has peered into the Studio A door, enviously eyeing the roomful of electronic gadgetry and broadacast machinery. But Auraria's only professional quality production studio is, as a rule, off limits to students. Media Center staff use the studio to produce video tapes for faculty, as well as for the occasional paying client. Faculty pay only the cost of materials for their productions. Students, however, must pay full price for projects such as demo tapes, which broadcast students need to demonstrate their on-camera talents. Costs begin at $80 an hour with a $150 set-up fee. And students wanting hands-on experience with state-of-the-art equipment must look off campus. The Media Center maintains that Studio A's equipment, donated from local television stations and cable companies, is too costly and delicate for student use.

"It's a Catch-22 situation," broadcast student Lori Martin-Schneider said. "I did an internship at Channel 4 this summer, and they said, 'We've donated some equipment to yolll' school. Why don't you use it to make a tape? (a demo tape of Ma;rtin-Schneider reporting or anchoring a news segment.)' "And then I find out I can't even touch it." Martin-Schneider, like other broadcast, communications and video graphics students, needs hands-on experience and quality sample products to sell herself in her field. She's frustrated, she said, that the equipment she needs, though on campus, remains unavailable to her. Marsha Woods, community-relations director at Channel 4, said the station donated the equipment specifically to the Media Center rather than to an academic department or school. "We assumed that students worked in the centei." Woods said. "But we donated it to the Media Center because this equipment has to be maintained. "Apparently you have a couple of very knowledgeable engineers (Jack Seagle and Larry Wood) that the engineers here at Channel 4 know." While the Media Center engineers keep Auraria's broadcast equipment

Air Fare Keeps ASTRO Grounded Jessica Snyder Reporter

Auraria's yet-to-fly cable television station would like to make its nest on campus. but the Media Center says its broadcast studio won't come cheep. Studio A, beneath the Auraria Library, comprises all the electronic gadgetry a fledgling television station could want. But it costs. The Media Center agreed to cut ASTRO a half-price deal, center director Muriel Woods said. But that amount remains beyond the student group's budget, said Barry Fisch, director of production for ASTRO, Auraria Student Television and Radio Organization. "The total costs would add up to about $300 an hour," Fisch said. That amount includes labor costs for Media Center staff, who would operate all equipment during productions. ASTRO had hoped its members' expertise would earn hands-on use of Studio A's equipment. Fisch, for example, earned a score of broadcast awards, including 12 CLEOs during his career as a sound engineer. Other ASTRO members have already completed internships at local television stations. "It defeats the purpose," Fisch said of the Media Center's allowing only its staff to operate equipment. "There are upper-level students needing hands on experience, and we could provide that." Another purpose of the station would be to present campus-style entertainment and news in Auraria's lounges and library. The Media Center's primary pur-

,..

Ooro Otteno, broadcast majo and Media Center intern, man one of Studio A's televisio ameras. pose, however, is to serve faculty and staff, Woods said, adding that the student station might do better off campus. Aspiring ASTRO broadcasters and technicians presently are honing their skills through Mile Hi Cablevision's public access facilities, which provide free training and audiovisual equipment. But Mile Hi offers, at most, four hours of access a week, Fisch said. And ASTRO will need studio time closer to 20 hours a week before it can go on-air. The student station hopes to be flying the airwaves by the end of January, Fisch said. "But we won't be going on the air until we get this (studio space) problem solved." A studio of their own would be ideal, Fisch said, but they have yet to D lay a big enough nest egg.

Studio A as seen from its control booth-reserved for f acuity and paying clients. under their protective care, students in video production classes may, if under faculty supervision, use a second studio, Studio B, also in the Media Center. But students complain that Studio B's equipment is obsolete and often broken. As new donations refurbish Studio A, castoff equipment moves next door to "B." Furthermore, students say the center's requirement that faculty be present at all times prohibits time-consuming productions. A 10-minute artistic video or demo news segment takes many hours of set up, recording, and eWting. Video tapes serve as resumes for aspiring corporate video artists and television broadcasters. The Media Center also stocks portable equipment. Yet rental costs remain too high for many. "It's not fair,'' said video arts student JohnDeMeritt. "Torentavideocamera costs $130 (a day) . But it just sits there most of the time because, who can afford to use it?" Muriel Woods, Media Center director, said she's aware of student's desires for easier, cheaper access to the audiovisual gadgetry. "I can understand the frustration," she said. "But at this point in time, I don't have the staff, room, or equipment (for student use). "Our engineers have worked hard to get the donated equipment we have. We get old or broken equipment and have to put in a lot of work repairing and maintaining it." In the past three years, Channel 4 has donated 3 color studio cameras, 12 color monitors, and 2 partial audio boards to the center. Channel 9 has donated an audio console, Pike's Peale Broadcasting, Colorado Springs, 3 videotape recorders; and, Hoover Audio Visual, Englewood, donated microphones and projection equipment. Given unlimited resources, Woods said she'd set up a student audiovisual laboratory staffed by someone who could ensure that students use equipment properly. The AV lab would be similar to the self-help graphics lab the center now runs. "But that's still far in the future," Woods said. Any increase in the center's budget would first be used to provide further faculty services.

For instance, faculty must now pick up class equipment themselves from one of four media distribution centers on campus. Before funding a student lab, Woods 'said, money would go to hire personnel to deliver equipment to classrooms. "Our primary mission and the service for which we are funded is to provide instructional support for faculty," she said. Yet the primary mission of some teachers remains finding hands-on experience for their students. Thomas Cook, MSC Speech Department chairman, said he relies on offcampus internships to train his broadcast students. "The difficulty in using the Media Center is directly related to bureaucracy," he said. UCD, as administrator of the Auraria Library, also controls the Media Center. Metro faculty have no say in its operation, Cook said. In MSC's Industrial Communications Department, instructor Robert Amend said his audiovisual classes lack the equipment he'd like them to use. "There's no good equipment, stateof-the-art equipment for student use," he said. But, Amend added, he also understands the Media Center's handsoff policy. "I'd like to use Studio A (for classes), but I don't know if I want to ... . Someone could point a camera up at a light and burn out a $1,500 lens. "Somehow, we need more funds for quality equipment for student usemore library funding." Student access to Studio A is possihie though limited. Two of Amend's students intern in the relatively sophisticated studio. Jim Kraus and Diane Huntrods, Amend's students, as well as Carolyn Tanner and Ooro Otteno, broadcast majors, constitute the center's practicum staff, working under the supervision of Joseph Martinez, AV production specialist. 1 Manning the cameras, lights, and control booth, Martinez and the four interns produced 201 instructional video tapes this semester. Martinez said he could, at most, take on two more interns. The practicum is designed for the student who already possesses a basic knowledge of AV production. D

must be decided by the American people and by Congress. This response is ludicrous when one takes into account that the general has just appealed for investment money &om the representatives of some of the country's most powerful corporations, with the resources to give thousands of campaign dollars to the candidates who will serve their interests. The other sessions were a good cure for insomnia. One after another, proposals for the commercialization of space came dryly forth, the manned orbiting space station, the Colwnbus project (a manned moon colony by 1992), commercial space flights and so on. Each proposal had little debate and nearly every speaker was allowed to go over his or her time limit, thus ensuring little or no time left for questions. The speeches were variations on space as a challenge, appealing to our national character and prowess and that it is time for the private sector to invest in space and not to be solely d ependent on the government for money and initiative. Ignored as much as possible was the national economy, the high risk of space investment, uncertain returns

and the simple fact that no matter how . .humble any space venture, it will cost millions, if not billions. Only NASA and the Pentagon have that kind of money. I had the chance to question Dr. Neil Beer who spoke to the symposium on the topic of cooperation and competition in outer space. He is the person in charge of Military Applications at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory. This is one of the governments research labs where the third generation of nuclear weapons such as the X-ray laser are being developed. He admitted that no SDI shield would be leak-proof, but said SDI could pin down Soviet ICBMs. He also stated that SDI will work and would not cause another arms race if it is mutual and verifiable with the Russians and we both reduce our offensive weapons as we deploy our defensive weapons. Who is he kidding? Just that day, Gorbachev restated the Soviet position that if the U.S. proceeds with star wars, the Soviets would respond with countermeasures and not with the cooperation that Dr. Beer is espousing. The Soviets are willing and able to continue their 40-year arms race with the U.S., and there is no evid ence that suggests they are ready to cry "uncle." I am further dumbfounded by his

statement and others like it that have been made by the president, secretary of defense and Lt.Gen. Abrahamson suggesting that we would share our technology (SDI) with the Russians. Here are men in positions of power who most likely would renounce a verifiable and mutual freeze on nuclear

weapons as naive and dangerous. But a mutual and verifiable building of another generation of weapons would somehow be stabilizing and would make way for the reduction of nuclear weapons. This is whistling in the dark. a

on an individual level. It is an intellectually ridiculous exercise in either case. A nation state is judged to be destroyed if 70 percent of its industrial capacity and 50 percent of its population is lost. Right now, eight percent of the American arsenal could ruin Russia, and five percent of the Russian arsenal could ruin America. This means reductions in nuclear weapons will not be "meaningful" until we reach the 92 and 95 percent thresholds. It also means banning individual weapons will not be meaningful until the almost 200 million weapons in private hands are somehow removed. And neither of those events will ever happen. Nevertheless, wimps, pacifists and nuke freezers continued to howl for arms control and an end to deterrence- until SDI came along. Then they started saying, "Hey, what's this space defense stuff? What's wrong with deterrence?" At which point they started their litanies of destabilization and provocation and unfeasibility. At which point the pro-SDI people, who had always defended deterrence, started saying what a dumb idea it was-and that strategic defense was The Answer to the problem of national security. Clearly, both sides have lost the essential thread of the SDI debate for the sake of good argument, which is natural for Americans and most other living things. But if we are to answer the question of "Deterrence or strategic defense?" we must find that thread again and also explore the questions of feasibility and character. Technologically speaking, directed energy defense systems represent a gargantuan scientific and economic effort and will require quantum jumps in current human knowledge and technical expertise. But this has never stopped Americans before. We set a goal of Pl1tting a man on the moon back when most of our rockets were blowing up on the pad. We sought to eradicate polio and smallpox and other diseases when they were ravaging mankind everywhere. And we are now flying a jetliner-sized spaceship around the earth when everybody else is still playing with bathroom-sized ballistic capsules. So while the question of feasibility is prudently asked, it can be historically answered with a resounding yes. Character, however, is another matter. Right now, we are funneling so much money into SDI that the high energy physics research community cannot absorb it. Large defense contractors are scrambling to buy little companies so they can cash in on this taxpayer-supplied bounty. In so doing, we are quickly setting the stage for the most inefficient, corruption-riddled, expensive mess we've have ever gotten ourselves into as a nation state. So Mr. Hendey is perhaps intuitively correct in his opposition to the Strategic Defense Initiative. But he and his anti-SDI colleagues had better clean up thier intellectual act or their legitimate concerns will be b rushed aside as the unfocused maunderings of mud dle-headed liberals. And that could precipitate a tragedy for all of us. D

Santa Claus actually came to an MSC Student Government meeting, but he warned the Senators that they'd better not shout and they'd better not pout. Then ole St. Nick made a listchecked it twice-but couldn't decide who was naughty or nice. Despite Santa's indecision at the meeting on campus last week, the Senate firmly agreed that they have the final authority to allocate salaries to student government members. However, Senators said Christy Avery, an administrative aide under MSC student body president Chris Dahle, had already been approved by Dahle and four MSC administrators on Nov. 11 to earn a salary in that position-without consulting the Senate. According to MSC Sen. Ben Boltz, Avery would earn $5.01 an hour, but would be limited to $701.40 while working between Nov.11 and May 15,

1986 When several Senate members found out two weeks ago that Avery would earn money without their approval, they became as hot as chestnuts roasting on an open fire. ...,._ "The Senate sets salaries. stipends and expenditures," Boltz grumbled. !he Senate did not approve her salary. We don't have the money to pay her." During the meeting, Senate members told Santa that Dahle and Avery allegedly told the Senate on Nov. 20 that she would not be paid as an administrative aide. According to Avery, she was not earning money when the meeting took place. "When the Senate asked me if I was ,., ... getting paid, I truthfully answered: "No,'" said Avery, who also works as an unpaid student trustee for the Consortium of the State Colleges.

The money was officially allocated for a salary when the MSC Personnel Office processed the paperwork on Nov. 22, she said. Because of the controversy surrounding the issue, the Senate last week voted against allocating funds for Avery's salary. But the MSC Budget Office, like the jolly old fat man in the red suit, responded a day later to the Senate's vote with a ho, ho, ho. MSC Budget Officer Tim Greene confirmed that Avery would get her first paycheck on Dec. 23, but he also said the money allocated for salaries in student government is handled and distributed by the student body president-not the Senate. "The money is budgeted to the executive branch and not the legislative branch (the Senate)," Greene said. "The president is a legal employer who

is responsible to spend the funds the way he wants to." According to Greene, the Student Affairs Board, comprised of students, faculty and administrators, allocated $20,000 to student government for

路 vice president, treasurer1 secretary and staff secretaries. Senators, however, are not normally paid. "From the legal standpoint, the president can pay aqy employee tha~ he hires," Greene satd. "From my projec-

"Last week, the Senate came up to me and said, 'You can't pay Christy Avery.' At that point, I said, 'Bullshit.' "I can spend the money anyway I want as long as I foUow the guidelines set by the State. Christy more than earns her salary because she's in the office five or six hours a day when she's not in class." MSC Sen. Mike Majeres said the, Senate's vote against funding Avery's salary had a Bah Humbug ring to it. "The Senate were Scroog;es at the meeting," Majeres said. "We have the money to pay her.

Metropolitan State College

Jack Kaufman settles back in his broad leather chair and gazes out his 45th floor office window at the panoramic view of t;he Rockies that forms a majestic backdrop for the Auraria campus. His expression turns wistful as he speaks about his experience teaching part time at Metropolitan State College. "I have a tremendous affection for Metro," the 27-year-old lawyer says. "It doesn't have the haughtiness .you find at UCD, and it's a good school. I like the school and I like the students. They're serious about their education." During the past two years, Kaufman taught eight classes in a business law and criminal justice. Last summer, he found out he wouldn't be teaching in the fall. He wants to know why. "I miss it (teaching), and they just keep 路me out. I feel like I've been made a football for somebody." Kaufman said he has repeatedly contacted the School of Business over the past four months, trying to find out why he wasn't retained to teach, Without success. His former boss, management department chairman Robert Lucas, said part time faculty don't need to be informed why they aren't re-hired. Part time faculty are hired on an hours-per-semester basis at Metro. They apply for a specific number.of hours for a specific semester. As soon as the semester is over, their contracts with MSC expire and they must reapply again each semester for specific openings. "Just because somebody's taught here once, and even done a good job, I don't think the system suggests that I have to use all of them every semester," Lucas 路 says. Kaufman was a qualified instructor and did a good job, but Lucas decided to cut back on the number of part-time faculty in his department, and Kaufman was one of the cuts. "In the spring semester, we used the .equivalent of 55 part-time people," Lucas said. "For a department that has 13 full-time people, I got involved in a situation where this old man has got so many people that he's not doing a very good job of supervision." The management department did reduce the number of part-time faculty, according to Sandy Jones, director of Contract Personnel, who says the management department employed 15 part-time faculty teaching 65 hours in Spring '84 and 13 teaching 51 hours in the Fall semester. But Kaufman doesn't accept cutbacks in personnel as the reason he was not retained. "I don't think there could have been a clearer case of someone who is qualified to teach and is being excluded for, wha t in m y mind, beyond any shadow of a doubt, are personal reasons," he says, without going int~

detail. "I can't go into any of the personal reasons because I said I would keep all of this absolutely professional." Lucas denies any personal motivation behind the decision not to rehire Kaufman. "The real reason is, I almost used Kaufman in the spring for a night class and, as I recall, he made some comment that that wasn't as favorable as the daytime for reasons I'd just as soon not go into. Part of it may have been the way he went about it. At times it came across like he was demanding employment." Kaufman has taken his case to the college administration-without success. While he says he wasn't trying to get re-hired but retained, MSC lacks any provision for automatic retention of part-time faculty. Ken Rager, acting vice-president for Academic Affairs, says the school tries to pick the most experienced and qualilfied instructors from the applications for each available position. "We create a pool of all the applications for each position and try to pick the best candidate. We don't want to exclude any qualified people from the community, and we want to avoid creating a cadre of part-time faculty," Rager said. For Kaufman and the rest of the part-time faculty at Metro, job security is non-existent. They are hired on a temporary basis, and even the world's greatest instructor has no guarantee that he will have a job teaching beyond his contracted semester. "Part-time faculty have no rights, no requirement that they will be brought back," Rager said. Currently, Metro operates with about 18 percent of the hours taught by part-time faculty. That 18 percent is taught by people from the real world who teach because they want to share their experience with those who want to learn, and they are a big part of what makes Metro the largest four-year college in the country.

Cap ~ills Walk-In David Kin

F

Assistant News ditor

What do dinosaurs, Nehru jackets and walk-in registration at MSC have in common? It may not be gone yet, but a record mail-in registration for the Spring semester, fueled by enrollment cap paranoia, has forced walk-in registration to the brink of extinction. Kenneth Curtis, dean of Admissions and Records, said walk-in registration, which begins Jan. 13, wilJ have a short life span this semester. "We don't believe we'll go past Tuesday (Jan. 14)," Curtis said. Walkin registration was scheduled to last through Feb. 4. He said mail-in registration locked up 8,000 full-time equivalents (FTE equals 15 hrs.) equaling 120,000 course hours. Past mail-in registrations have averaged 6,000 FTE's. Curtis said students' fears that the new enrollment cap placed on Metro by the Joint Budget Committee of the Legislature could block their registration contributed to the increased mail-in response. "Everything is a different ball game," Curtis said. He said students are reacting differently because they don't know how the cap will effect them. "This is all brand new," Curtis said. "That's the thing we don'.t know--just how the cap will effect (registration)." _He said the length of walk-in registration will depend on another new predator--phone-in adds and drops. Curtis said he can't anticipate just how much the new phone-in procedure will effect walk-in· registration, but he expects telephone adds to increase the overall FTEs. What all those FTEs add up to is this--if you were waiting for walk-in registration to register for the Spring semester, your chances of attending Metro are just a little better than trying. to commute to Auraria on a brontoo

OPINION I

Slip, Slidin Away with AHEC Parking

Cecil L. Jerome So you're driving to school. The Governor's fervent plea about removing your untoned self from the operating seat of your cruise-n-cuss (automobile) didn't touch you at all. Oh, it's a brand spiffy new automobile? A wonder wagon.You're into your grandmother for six thousand eip;ht hundred and twentv-three lawn mowings for the down payment. And now you're going to drive it to school, to MSC ... that is Auraria, land of AHEC, and you're going to park in the parking lots where other students, not to mention senile and near-sightless faculty, park. How bold of you. How daring. I must admit to a certain admiration of someone who . lives for thrills. Remember, "Wl)at goes up, must come down." The great euphoric high you feel is the magnificent rush of the freedom of the road-loving American ariver. I'm hip. All the crashing silence through which you sing your best stuff, all the glorious aloneness not to be shared with any but the fleetest of insanity in the left lane, all the cacophony of three thousand watts of acid rock pressing your eyeballs closer together, all must come to a sudden and sad stop in an American ritual call the dreaded parking. . You knew it had to happen when you set out all preened and waxed. You knew, but you didn't want to face it until reality racked you. Now, suddenly, there you are, sans time, sans patience, sans joy. The eagle has landed and the piper is leaning on your new wonder wheels wheezing for quarters. Well, Boopsie, I'm here to make your life a little easier and maybe save some of your luster. Here are my tips on the greater Auraria parking and bumper car lots. First, never try to beat AHEC and park without a sticker. My 0 my what ugly things those towing people can do to your locked up automatic transmission. "Geeze crumb, I didn't know it was front wheel drive." That after he has dragged your protesting baby on its front wheels through every downtown street ever imagined by man just to show off your new car. I know, on really cold or snowy days those boys don't like to be out ticketing cars. What if I told you they worked on a bounty system? Christmas is coming you know. Even bounty hunters have loved ones-. (fiked ones?) .

As you drive properly stickered into the Jot forget about your first inclination ... to park on the end of the line. I know what you're thinking, only a car on one side of you ..Fifty percent less chance of a double scratch. Au contraire. After you are quietly sleeping in your eight o'clock class, the late comers will be arriving. Panicsville! These folks are the ones who circle around hoping against bad grades that someone will get the Texas flu and leave early. But as class time approaches and patience becomes a memory of things forgotten, those circles get smaller and smaller until one short hurried turn takes off the left rear of the car unfortunate enought to be on the end of the line. Where were you parked? Cars at the ends of lines can be equated to those steel rails they put in alleys to protect the comers of brick buildings. Ever notice how mangled they are? Point made? Next, when you park in the middle of a long line of cheap, six year old or older cars, (even respectable tape-deck specialists won't bother them) always glance into the back of the car next to you. If you should see a pile of sneekers and tape decks, move to another lot. Ifyou ~hould see a stack of mag wheels under a tarp, move to another school. If you should see something resembling a body, be leery. Bodies are bothersome. Some good citizen is going to come along and lodge a complaint about someone carrying a body without a permit. In fact the body is probably just some poor freshman who really thought the guys from AHEC would come and give him a jump start ... last week. Anyway, you know everybody will get all excited and, what with forcing their way into the car and bringing in a stretcher, you know your beauty is going to get all scratched up. Now you know why nobody else reported it. Note the cars parked on either side of you. Do they have long jagged scratches along their entire lengths? If the scrapes are mulitcolored, you are in the wrong place. These cars are driven by people who do not understand turning radius. As they pull out, long before you return, they will both christen your baby. Of course, you will then get to see if the boys at Detroit really did apply three coats of undercoating. On the other hand, seeing the scratches on your car, nobody will want to park close to you in the future. . I have longed to invent one of those stick-on imitations of a long scratch resembling an ugly side-swipe. People would stay farther from your car than if your bumper sticker read, "I have Herpes two, three and four, and this is a hand rubbed finish." Never make the mistake of trying to fake out the parkers by pulling cattycomered across your parking space. You think no one would try pulling into the spaces next to you since you have severely narrowed them. Tisk tisk ! In moments of great angst everybody loves a challenge. Oh yes, sweep up the glass from your tail lights. Remember your new and very expensive radials. As you drive off into the sunset bearing scratches along both sides of your grandmother's folly with the rear lights bashed out, don't snicker at the 1963 Volkswagon Bug burning oil and hitting on nearly two cylinders. That guy probably has an unblemished Mercedes at home. D

Coffee House Punk Denver cries out, wailing for children, her heros moved on. The blood of coffee creamer, and honey stain streets where no battles wage, where loss never etched its image of empt y chains into cobblestones now covered with blacktop. Fresh traffic lines like children painted bright on her streets, yellow hair and white streaked decorate the length of gutters with wounds never opened from pain never felt Denver.cries out for children who cry for themselves, who lease their pain from punk, and from coffee houses hugging her streets. Pieces of garrish metal tug without romance at earlobes weary of the sound from the city for the gutteral rebirth of the city weary without running running without effort. Denver in her streets, placid and plastic. But she smiles the fragrance of childhood. under angry teased hair And laughs the gentle pain of childhood. Dark streets cushion her, darkness pushes her up against parked cars, her dress slipped high, legs split, head and boyfriend flung back, eager in her streets. Her poets, like maple seed helicopters comb and cover sidewalks, searching for fertile earth. Her parks with pretty boys, whose toys are pretty boys, tight in ;eans and in closely knit wanderings of aloneness. Denver aches for her children tears drowning in coffee at sidewalk cafes. Liquid like the city eats liquid like the city, and the children, like the rivers at Confluence meander in lazy movement beneath summemight soft light. Denver cries out, longing for children, her heros moved on. Bob Haas

Some of us are a little too old to be in touch with the latest avant-garde movements. Some don't know the difference between "punk" and "new wave." A few years ago, the punk band Kiss nauseated mainstream listeners and watchers with its violence, nihilism and wild fashions. Was this true "punk"? And, what is happening with the movement today? A young woman on campus, wearing a soft, long-ish buzz haircut, man's overcoat, knickers and Fagan-type boots, said she could help. Her name was Linda Hom, and she could produce friends, she said softly. Linda was hesitant, sweet. The sun rose abovp each almond-shaped brown eye in mulit-colored rays-blue, pink, yellow and green. Half moons of filigreed matal lace dangled from each ear. Linda attends an MSC advanced English skills class twice a week. She and the friends she brought to campus are all from East High School in Denver. Linda is 18; her friend Cera ("Sara") is 15; Kevin, 17; Christy Ward, 16; and Ariana Craigie, 15. A few generalizations: All had bright clear eyes and skin, and said they eschewed drugs and alcohol ("except for champagne or an occasional glass of wine"); all wore something bigeither shirt, overcoat or skirt. Hair tended toward the vertical (done by Paul Curran of Cherry Creek); lips ru;id nails (the girls') were polished in shades of sugared bubblegum. All said they "love" high fashion and that they wanted to "stand out" from the preppies, whom they said dominate fashion today. "(~e punk look) is not for attention, , really," they said. "It's supposed to be an expression of self." Were they punk? "No." "No." "No." "I'm not." "Me either." If they had to be categorized, they'd prefer to be called "new wave" they said, but they warned against attempts to label them. The group spoke disdainfully of "trendies" and "posers" who try to imitate them. They also dislike preppies, It seems, but perceive the preppies, police officers and the blacks at East High pick on them, ostensibly because new wavers don't conform to thenonn. "You know Ms. Anderson in English?" asks one of another. "She doesn't see me. 111 raise my hand to answer a question, and it•s like rm just not there!" "Well, what do you expect?" someone answers. "She's the cheerleader type."

They said that punk originated in England, and that the weirdest looksshaved heads, mobawks, bizarre make·

up and paraphenalia-were a sort of anti-nuclear statement from "mutants." Some punks are violent, they said, but mostly from fringe elements. They mentioned a gang called The Denver Skins, "all bald and everything," who were of that ilk. And,they predictec:r, the punk movement is fading. -... Well. Does that clear up all the confusion? Probably not. Back to our group: The girls could have walked out of the pages of Mademoiselle or Vogue~ . Kevin, with h~ wild hair looking like a blond Brillo, was a little less chic, but then be is much more experimental than the girls. He makes some of his clothes. He wore a vaguely bathrobeshaped overcoat he'd fashioned from an old blue blanket. The left leg of bis jeans had been ripped at the seam-

Kevin ankle to hip-and tied up ag8.&Jl with a ragged nobon of cloth. Kevin confessed to "shaving his legs in stripes sometimes" when he "gfts. bored with" himself. He wore a diamond in his left ear and a .necklace featuring what appeared to be a turquois shark's tooth-a decidedly rare piece, if that is what it was. Oiristy was probably the most expensively dressed of the group. "I make my mother spend her money on me," she said. "She doesn't mind,

Kevin confessed to "shaving his legs in stripes .sometimes,. when

he "gets bored" with himself.

Even if she doesn't like ,what I like, • she'll buy it... This included a pair of $55 granny boots from a Boulder boutique, white rolled socks, black knickers, enormous white shirt, black-and-gold brocade vest, rosy diamond above her right nostril, and soft black cap with a patent-leather brim, reminiscent of an Eastern European boy's cap. Her hair was brushed up soft and golden, thanks to Paul Curran, who "really went off on my hair," she said. Christy's eye-~ lashes also were gold. Cera's eyeliner and mascara were cobalt blue. Her clothes tended to pale blue and white instead of the drab olives, blacks.and browns of fbe others'. Ariana wore little makeup, unstyled short hair ("I used to have amohawk"), voluminous plaid skirt, Slack cowlneck shirt and wool vest Her flat shoes were ruby-brown and .glossy.

Linda had gilt her eyelashes, wore trousers, big shirt, vest, a thick string tie with gold clasp and, with inspired incongruity, she topped it all off with a madonna's cap (sans veil) of blackand-gold brocade lace. Politically, they are "very liberal," Linda said. AH voiced world peace as a primary concern. "I wan~ Reagan out," said Cera, "and I'll vote when I'm 18." Christy said she thought that "greed was at the root of all the world's problems past and present-Think of it, everything from world hunger to slaves to war." The new wavers see themselves as different politically from preppies and yuppies, they said. "I think all the preppies seem tobe republicans," said Linda. While this grqup was·not yet politically active, they voiced approval for the "We Are The World" famine"aid concerts and similar movements. "They make you feel you're not alone (in wanting to help the world)," said Christy. What do they want to be when they grow up? Cera: "An interior designer.

MetroStyle Gentle Giant Loves Wrestling, Even Losing Jewelry Vendor Spins Pugnacious Tales

"Some people become bad guys because of the crowd , some because they're that way," he said. "But the bad guys are the nicer people. Good guys are conceited gods in their own minds."

When a bear-like man tips the scales at 310 pounds and gets thrown around the ring by wimps weighing at most 125 pounds, something is wrong. But for Alan Paul Vives (pronounced Vee-ves), who weighed 290, embarrassment was a way of life for almost a year. As an All-Star wrestler, Vives, who now sells jewelry in the Student Center every Monday, dressed in a psychedelic suit and a black-and-purple mask and made the little guys look better than they really were. "My ego would dictate that some 210 guy is hammering away at me," Vives said, but it's a job, and you either quit or you stay. It was understood from the beginning that I wouldn't win. "I did it because I thought it would be fun. I had very long hair, and I was the perfect bad guy." Today he still finds it hard to picture a little runt beating up on some monstrous guy. He said any logical person could see that wrestling gets carried away at times. A personal preference for bad guys seems absurd to most, but Vives looks at it as an insult to be cheered by the average wrestling fan.

"They're a dime a dozen," he "They once hired the janitor of the arena to wrestle."

remark~d .

Eventually, landing on his head became a dead end for Vives, and he hung up the ol' mask and suit for a more conventional method of living. Vives still finds it an enjoyable sport but is quick to agree that wrestling is not for the Harvard graduate. Vives, who looks like a \vrestler, is a peaceful man, a gentle giant. At 6'4" and down to 235 pounds, this timid man learned the meaning of the word sympathy at a young age. "They're driven to such a frenzy,"he said. 'Tm surprised they (the crowd) don't shoot them (the wrestlers)." One instance he recalled was when Adrian Adonis-a wrestler-was in a lobby and some "idiot" ran up to him, begging for his autograph. After some playful teasing, Adonis signed the piece of paper and then ripped it up into about 20 bits. Needless to say, the former fan tried to attack Adonis. People believe in wrestling. When Vives first found out that it wasn't all real, it crushed him. "It was very upsetting because I had every opportunity to believe it was

real. I looked at it as finding out Santa Claus is not real," he said smiling. It was then that this gentle giant challenged this reporter to a match of arm wrestling to show me how the pros do it. We moved to the next booth and he instructed me not to flinch a muscle. "Just keep your whole arm limp. 111 do all the work," he said. Then suddenly, like a bull being kicked, he started jerking around and a look of aggression streaked across his face. He furiously tried to pin my limp arm to the table. He nearly drooled as the highlight of his act peaked. Then, in a sudden rush, his power gave out. The winner, without straining a muscle, was yours truly. The whole place directed a queer look in our direction. He explained how the old "closet fan" has now opened the door and stepped out of the darkness. The current sport calls for the threepiece suit right next to the "smelly sweatsuit." He described a wrestler's different roles, using George "The Animal" Steele as bait. In the ring, The Animal is just what his nickname says. He doesn't speak a word of English, is covered with hair and has a nasty habit of biting people. But in real life, The Animal, who is a physical education teacher in Detroit, takes care of his wife and children, speaks English well and has cool manners. , Vives knows role playing well, and be looks back to one he played in college. "I was expected to go to college. I've never felt that having a degree has helped in any way. Most things relevant to life, I've learned on my own." .He received his degree in liberal arts from New York City Community College. Growing up in the Big Apple, Vives scraped for everything he had. On his own and living on the streets since 15, he learned to appreciate everything he had. "I was picked on in school. I was really skinny so I had to fight for survival. I'm actually a very peaceful per. son." Vives said. He recalled people selling everything they owned outside their front doors on Saturdays. He's never seen such poverty since. "I had a friend who worked for a bagel store, he sneaked me food," Vives said. "A lot of groups gave away food . It made me hard, but ultimately it made me sympathetic." Then he became what he considered a regular nine-to-five guy. But that became past tense when, after his brief history in the ring, he moved to Denver in 1981 with his wife. What he found surprised him. "Denver is a totally different world. It closes at 6 o'clock. Denver is a beautiful city compared to 1\ew York. New York has garbage all over the place. If you're a yuppie, you have a lot more opportunity here," he said. Now, as a part-time credit counselor, Vives helps people find ways to pay bills and establish credit. He also collects. This is only to "keep a steady income." His real job is sellipg his pride continued on page 16

Shy Punker Stands Out Like an Extraterrestrial Around Earthlings ent since high school where, she says, her clothing started a trend. "My best friend and I thought we would shock everyone and dress the way everyone saw it on TV, but we did it in real life," she says. Smudge, her girl friend, cut Veach's hair and then her own, then they gathered a "lot of junk from my grandparents and stuff," and put it on. The next day they strutted around Kelly Walsh High School in Casper Wyo., and to their surprise, everyonemost everyone-liked what they saw.

leremiah Lyon Reporter

'.

In a class of 25, Diane Veach stands alone. Although she is a shy, quiet person, she draws attention to herself like E.T. among humans. "I feel like I'm not like everyone else. I guess I like to be the center of attention because I'm kind of shy- but I don't over do it," she says. Veach, 22. is a punker, one of those strange people on campus who people try not to stare at just because she makes them feel uncomfortable. But in the classroom, students stare. From their positions just behind her or across the classroom from her, they stare, looking her up and down, then down and up. What they observe is Veach's hair, which is cut like an overgrown flat top. She wears a jean jacket, old and faded, a gray wrinkled shirt, which belongs to her boyfriend, black loose trousers and leather shoes that come to a point like elf shoes. Without a word, Veach declares herself different, and has been differ-

"The guys were really nice to us. They gave us hot dogs and beer, but the girls really didn't and threatened to beat us up,'' Veach says. Veach and Smudge soon left the party; they had not gone to cause trouble. When they were about half a block away, four girls from the party chased them and caught them, ready for a fight. "We're going to kick your ass," one of them said. Veach, surprised, talked her way out of the fight, saying that she did not want trouble; after all she and Smudge had left the party when they found they were not welcome. She convinced them and they left, casting curses over their shoulders. "I didn't care, 'cause I thought they really looked gross in their rock teeshirts and blue jeans," Veach says, "at least we took time to think about what we wore." But Veach says that was the only time she was hassled. Most of the time, people simply stare. Where they don't stare is at Confetti, a night club on South Birch Street. It is one of her favorite hang outs; she met her boyfriend, Gonzalo Buse, 21, from Peru, there. He is a sophomore at MSC, majoring in management. Veach's major is broadcasting. She hopes to graduate and work "som·ehow" in the broadcasting field; she'd really like to be an anchor woman. Television's first punk news anchor. That would make her proud.

Besides, she is very comfortable in her clothes-that's why she wears them. "I feel more comfortable wearing jean jackets than tight sweaters," she 1 says. And her clothes reflect her personaltiy. "I think it's fun to express the way I feel," she says. "You should be honest and friendly with other people and just be happy with yourself, I guess." , Veach is happy with herself-very happy, she says. D

"Even the teachers like us," she says. But outside of high school, the "old rednecks and hippies were frightened by us." Veach remembers the time she nearly came to blows with some hippie girls. Smudge and Veach went to a party "where there were a lot of bikers and stuff' at a tumbled-down house. It was a grimy, filthy place, but Veach knew a few people there and braved the chill of a winter evening and tried to have fun.

Metro Busts Loose with Two at Home Joseph Ross Reporter

The MSC men s basketball team defeated Adams State, 79-69, last Friday in the Auraria gym. The Roadrunners then toppled previously unbeaten Puget Sound, 64-58, Saturday at the Auditorium Arena. Metro trailed Adams State 38-30 at halftime as center-forward Craig Hyman kept the Roadrunners close with 11 first-half points, including seven from the foul line. Hyman used his strength and moves to draw fouls around the basket. Metro busted loose, scoring 49 second-half points, as guard Thomas Murphy netted 14. The Roadrunners tied the score, 4646,and the teams then traded baskets until Metro scored 10 unanswered points to take a 75-63 lead. Coach Bob Hull said Ambrose Slaughter's aggressive play and key steals were major factors in the win. Slaughter and point-guard Kevin Trujillo fouled out late in the game.

Saturday night, Metro came back from a 35-26 first-half deficit to defeat Puget Sound. The Roadrunners trailed 42-29, but chipped away to tie the score at 58-58. Puget Sound was unable to score in the final 1:56 as Metro cashed six points for the victory. Murphy popped 22 points in the contest to lead all scorers, and his hot hand from the outside was crucial in the comeback. Slaughter added 13 points, and guard Steve Crigler managed 12 points and five assists. Hull said he had planned on Murphy being one of the top players. "He really sparked us,". Hull said. "That's what we needed. We also had him playing defense on their best guard and he did a fine job." Hull said he was proud of his players' ability to come back and win against both teams. "They showed a lot of heart," he said. . The victories bring the men's record to 3-3, and the team will play Fort Lewis, Friday, Dec. 13, away. D

Ambrose Slaughter reaches in vain for a board, which was controlled by Adams State's Lynn Cash. Metro won the contest 79-69.

Ex-NBA·Great Helps with Winning System Debbie Temmer Reporter

You might know him. He's an exDenver Nugget from Detroit, works for Mark Toyota and, since July, has been an MSC assistant basketball coach. His name is Ralph Simpson. Simpson spent eight years of his life playing for the Denver Rockets, which then became the Nuggets. Then for the next two years, he was traded among Detroit, Philadephia and Denver. He finally retired from pro-basketball in

Simpson added that his main responsibility will be recruiting players for next year. He plans to recruit heavily in Colorado, especially Denver.

1980. Despite the great times he had playing pro-ball, he was ready to retire and doesn't miss it at all. "All my life, I wanted to be a professional player, but I was sort of burned out toward the later years of playing ball and knew I didn't want to stay in it that much longer .... The game became so political because I was traded so many times." Once he retired he coached a high school team in Detroit for a year before he was recruited to play basketball by a team in Italy, where he stayed for one year. In 1982, he decided· he had had enough of basketball and returned to Denver and began working at the YMCA. A year later, he started his own juice company. But Simpson still wanted to remain involved in basketball and to use his experiences in the game to help others. The main way he's been able to use these experiences, is with the MSC basketball team. He is excited about working with head coach Bob Hull

players," Simpson said. Besides helping others to become better people, Simpson also has been working on bettering himself. He's trying to get a degree in business administration at MSC. He plans to be done in a year or two and then open a business of his own. He also has other goals.

Ralph Simpson · Another way Simpson has been able to use his knowledge about the game is in a program for professional athletes. The program financially helps athletes finish their college educations. In return, these athletes encourage and advise high-school and college athletes about the importance of education. "I like working with the kids and sharing my experiences with them and hope that I can help them to become better citizens and better basketball

"I would like to see Metro grow to be a really good Division I team and to really succeed." Above all else, he said he'd like to work on his relationship with God. 'Tm always striving to have a better relationship with the Lord .... My goal is to become a 100-percent dedicated Christian." o

It wasn't a good weekend for the MSC women's basketball team; in fact, it was horrible. After losing by 13 points to Western State College at home, the women went on the road and lost to Ft. Lewis by 31 points. On Friday in the Auraria gym, the Roadrunners were as close as four points in the second half before Western State ran off 11 straight points and eventually won 72-59. After watching her team shoot just 33 percent from the field, coach Cindy Guthals was still optimistic. "Im not too disappointed with the loss," Guthals said. "I am excited that in three games I see a lot of improvement." Guthals was pleased with her team's play in the first half but noted a lack of discipline as the reason for the second half collapse. "We did not play the second half the

way we played the first," she said. "We were not disciplined at all in the second half." For the game, Deborah Nicholson scored 19 points and Lisa Rairis scored 16 points and grabbed nine rebounds. On their first road trip of the year Sunday, the women lost to Ft. Lewis for the second time this year. After the 91-60 loss, Guthals expressed disappointment in the outcome and hinted of a possible shakeup in the team lineup. "Everything I can think of (about the game) is negative," she said. "We have to make some changes." Against Ft. Lewis, Guthals praised the play of Lisa Rains and Tami Davis. Davis scored 24 points while playing three positions, and Rains scored 14. Guthals hopes that the team's history of losing seasons and this years 0-4 start won't tum fans away from the program. "I just don't want people to give up on us," she said. "The women now have two weeks off until they meet Augustana College at home on Dec. 31 at 5 p.m. o

Issel Signs at Auraria

Hoopster Adds Parting Shots to Sports Literature Brad Dunevitz Reporter

Former Denver Nugget great Dan Issel signs a book for one of his many fans that came to the Student Center last Thursday for a copy of his book titled "Parting Shots".

Dan Issel is standing four feet behind the free-throw line as he receives a pass from his teammate. The defender, at least two inches taller than Issel, is backing off, daring him to shoot. Without hesitation, Issel accepts the dare. Launching the ball from above his head, Issel sends a line drive over his opponent's outstretched arm. SWISH. This was not a unique situtation. In fact, this happened so often that hoop fans around the country, especially Denverites, became accustomed to the "Issel Missile." This happened so often that Issel is the No. 4 leading scorer in the history of the National Basketball Association. Almost every popular sport legend has written a book about his or her life in sports. Dan Issel is a legend, and Parting Shots is his contribution to the literary world. Issel hosted a crowded book-signing at the Auraria Book Center last Thursday. Released in late November, Parting Shots offers tidbits of names and history that any hoop fan would appreciate. Names like David Thompson,

Swimmers Stroke to 2nd Place Debbie Temmer Reporter

The Metro swim team ended this weekend's meet with a big splash. Both the men's and women's teams left the two-day invitational in Boulder in second place. Coach John Bockstahler said he was pleased by the performance of all the swimmers. "I think overall the swimmers did really well. To get in second place, you have to do really well," Bockstanler said. The men's team competed against three other teams: Colorado University, Colorado College and the Colorado School of Mines. And it managed

to fair well against them. One of the men who faired the best was Shaun Wendt. He came in first in three separate events: the 100-and 200- . meter backstroke and the 400-meter Individual Medally, in which he finished in national qualifying time.

Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, coach Rupp and George Gervin to name a few. History like the 75 ABA Championship series, the trade that sent him to the Balitmore Claws, and the '8.5 Conference finals versus the L.A. Lakers. But the book's greatest feature is that it concentrates on the last 10 years of Issel's career-the Denver Nuggets. Any Nugget fan or follower will recognize several names, events, moments and headlines that embraced Issel's tenure with the Nuggets. "The Man in the Clown Suit" is a chapter about the man Issel dubs "a raving lunatic"-Nugget coach Doug Moe. The validity to Issel's humorous name-calling is strengthened while laughing at some of Moe's antics. In the chapter titled "That Crisis Season: to Quit or Not to Quit," Issel gets serious and reflects back on his last year before retiring. He says some eye-opening statements that Nugget fans were probably never aware of. One night in December just after a game, Issel said "I was seriously considering getting into my car that night and driving straight through to my farm in Versailles, Ky ......and never come back." But Issel straightened out matters

and eventually led the Nuggets to the playoffs. Had the "Horse" decided to hang-up his sneakers on that cold night in December, the next few months would have been even gloomier for Nuggets fans. Nicknamed the Horse about a decade ago, Issel gives dual meaning to the name. Not only did he play ball like a horse (for which the name was coined) but he is a thoroughbred fanatic. Back at his farm in Kentucky, the horse-racing capital of America, Issel owns race horses. But beside his dream of winning the Kentucky Derby, horseracing is secondary in Issel's life. His life with his family comes first. "My nopes and dreams are here now," lssel says about his post-basketball life on the farm with his loved ones. "This may very well be my last resting place." Reflecting, Issel said, "I probably took some of my life as a basketball player for granted. When the cheering stops, only then do you begin to really appreciate what it used to sound like." For those of us who watched Dan Issel play basketball during his illustrious career, during his ups, his downs, his good times and his hard times, the cheering will never stop. D

SPORTS Leiby MVP for Metro Athletics Susan Brent Reportet

-

Her job offers little chance for fame and glory but Marianne Leiby is the women behind the scene who keeps MSC's intercollegiate athletics 1 department running smoothly. Leiby, secretary for the department for the past three years, is responsible for more than just typing letters. "She's doing the work of three people," says her bo5s William Helman, athletic director, "I think she's super." Daily, Leiby accomplishes a juggling act of sorts, for she must handle everything from making sure the flyers for 50¢ off on slices of pizza for those attending MSC basketball games are done to making sure that the women's basketball team will have a cash advance for its road trip to Durango over the weekend. This combined with the numerous phone calls and typing tasks, keeps Leiby working more than her scheduled eight hours a day. She handles all jobs with ease, making one wonder how she's able to stay calm. "I enjoy my job," Leiby says,"And I do the best I can at it." "It's her personality," co-worker Pat Sjodjin says, "Her job would be stressful to me."

To the right of Leiby's desk are grey filing boxes each labled with the names of the numerous coaches that work for the athletic department--Women's Soccer, Men's Swimming. Each coach depends on Leiby to convey and take messages for them. "She's not just a secretary," says Helman, "She is the first contact with athletes, coaches, funding services . .. everybody." Helman says it is better to call her his administrative assistant. A whirl of activity seems to surround Leiby, making it difficult for her to take time to stop and talk about herself. "I just found my desk yesterday," she says, her warm brown eyes flashing. Leiby recently had to miss work because of surgery on her feet. Even though her movements are slower, her work pace has kept brisk. A fresh-faced young girl in a bright purple sweater walks into the office, and Leiby looks up smiling. "Cyndy says your sweats will be in this afternoon," Leiby says. "Great. Thanks Marianne," the girl says. After the young lady leaves Leiby says, enthusiastically "She's a great volleyball player!" Leaningbackinherchairforamoment, Leiby discusses her job.

"OOI of my job is student contact. The rest is student athletics and the various levels of . . . And of course, keeping the paper flow running smoothly." "She's invaluable to intercollegiate athletics," says Helman, "She cares about every athlete, every student that

Marianne Le~by walks in the door. She gets involved." Leiby's only complaint, she says, is inadequate funding-the department is l<>OI funded by student fees. Leiby says she believes that intercollegiate athletics are important to MSC. "I believe that athletics can bring public recognition to our school like

nothing else can--it can put MSC on the map. On Leiby's desk amidst stacks of papers is a picture of a smiling young women--Leiby's daughter Laurie, who is a freshman art student at MSC. Leiby proudly says, ''I've been a single parent for 10 years, and I have seven grandchildren." Leiby is quick to praise those who work with her: "I don't know what I would do without my work-study staff." Leiby grumbles a bit about the inability to climb any higher. "I am at the top now," she says, her wide brown eyes narrowing slightly. The frustration is understandable as Leiby is excellent at what she does. But because she is at the top of her employment classification she cannot be promoted. Often, without overtime pay, Leiby works more than her eight hour shifts. The phone rings, and two girls in jogging pants and MSC basketball sweatshirts ask questions and expect answers from Leiby. The swirl of activity continues around Leiby in her tiny office in the Rectory buil~g. a swirl that Leiby is able to keep organized while keeping her natural positive attitude. "She keeps this department successful and growing," Helman says. And with MSC's increased emphasis on the importance of athletics Leiby's job will grow in the coming years. a

Four Years of S\Veat Earns Enamel Pat Beckman

Reporter

If you can't become an Olympic gold medalist, you can always become a Campus Recreational enamel medalist. And you don't have to cross-country ski 50 kilometers in less than two minutes to do it. All you have to do is commit yourself to four years of physical fitness-four years of skiing, swimming, jogging, or even walking. Whatever the sport, Campus Rec is

encouraging Auraria students, faculty and staff to participate in its Sports Medals Program. The program is sponsored by Sons of Norway, a Norwegian fraternal and cultural society, and is an incentive program to promote good health and exercise. Each participant in the program completes a set of mileage or point requirements. And upon accumulation of so many points, a medal is awarded. For the first year of participation a bronze medal is awarded, for the

second, a silver; for the third, a gold; and .£or the fourth, an enamel. For example, if you walked three miles a day for five days, at two points ' per mile, you would earn 30 points for the week. If you earned 30 points every week for a year, you would have more than 1500 points, the requirement for a bronze medal. Keep that pace up for the next three years, and you11 earn an enamel medal. For more information, call Campus :Rec at 556-3210. D
