The close of the 3.2 bar in the Mercantile Restaurant in December due to its insurance companies' refusal to insure for liquor liability has posed several questions concerning the future of the Mission. According to Gary McManus, director of the Student Center, the Mission will continue to serve 3.2 beer. Since the liquor license for the Mission is held by the state of Colorado, the bar's liquor liability policy is part of the

Student Seeks Answer To Library Frustration Dear Editor, Where are our books? In doing research in our campus library, I have found a lot of missing books that are listed on the computer as being in the stacks. Recently I have noticed a lot of tracers for missing books and am sick and tired of running all over town to find books in other •nstitutions such as DU or CU-Boulder. Why does the library not publicize a two-day special and allow students to tum in these missing books for free? Let's get the books back on the shelves in the library and off those dusty

The feelings of uncertainty for students registering in colleges this semester across the state almost ended Jan. 10 when the Colorado Commission on Higher Education reviewed the cap on enrollment. Edmond Noel, CCHE commissioner, proposed that beginning Fall 1986, colleges would no longer be assessed a penalty when they exceeded their enrollment limit. Metro State's enrollment limit for the 198.5-86 school year is 10,2.57. Noel's proposal was defeated by a vote of 4 to 5, keeping the cap that was agreed to by CCHE in its last meeting in December. The cap, which was agreed on two months ago, places a penalty of 150 percent of revenue for each student that exceeds the limit placed on state colleges to better manage their budgets. "As it stands now, the cap is scheduled to stay in effect until 1989," said Mark Chisholm, CCHE director of information and management. "We are certain that the 150 percent penalty for schools will be all the encouragement a school needs to better manage their finances," he said. Chisholm did admit that the debate and anger over the cap issue is far from finished. "The controversy around the cap and the enrollment issue will be around for a while," he said. Other action taken by the CCHE at the Jan. 10 meeting included the program discontinuance policy which will attempt to phase-out degree programs that are considered unnecessarily duplicative and produce few graduates. Prognuns that will be examined during 1986 include, Education, Business and Management, Business and Office, Marketing and Distribution, Computer and Information Sciences, Engineering, Psychology and .S ocial Sciences. continued on pag., S

ON CAMPUS Private College Tuition Assistance Bill .A dvances Robert Smith Reporter

Colorado high school graduates attending private colleges would be eligible for a $1,500 per year tuition assistance grant under provisions of a bill given preliminary approval by the· General Assembly last week. "It's the next best cousin to a voucher plan," Rep. Pat Grant, R-Denver, the bill's sponsor, told the House Education

Committee. Grant said House Bill 1115 would provide students with a wider choice of colleges, and would open up more opportunities for low and moderate income students to attend private schools. Despite misgivings expressed by committee members about the bill's effects on the state higher education system and the lack of control over the money spent, the bill was approved by a 9-2 vote and sent to the Appropriations

Committee. "Student aid in private institutions will come out of the pockets of students in public institutions," Rep. Wayne Knox, D-Denver, told Grant during testimony on the bill. "It seems incontrovertible to me that this bill will compete with the public institutions for funding," Rep. Sandy Hume, R-Boulder, added. Both Knox and Hume voted against the bill.

"Public and private institutions are not in competition for the same budget dollars," Grant replied. "It is a fallacy to think that there is only one pot of dollars for funding all of the higher education community." Grant did not offer any suggestions on where money for the bill, which he estimated would cost $6 million, would come from.' He said that the Appropriations Committee should decide that question later in the session, when it has a clearer idea of what revenues will be available. Committee members also raised questions about the amount of control the state would have over the money. "Can we be sure that taxpayer money is not being spent on hockey players for Colorado College and Denver Uni-

,___________ Student aid in private institutions will come out of the pockets of students in public institutions. Rep. Wayne Knox ' versity?" asked Rep. Mary Dambinan, R-Colorado Springs. Grant replied that the biannual audits called for by the bill are an appropriate form of control, and said he opposed any other strings on the money as being an improper intrusion into the private sector. Rep. Phil Hernandez, D-Denver, suggested that in return for the money the private schools should be subject to the Colorado Commission on Higher Education. "It seems as if we're doing to the public sector, but doing for the private sector," Hernandez said. "There can be reciprocity in a form less onerous than that," said Dr. Gresham Riley, president of Colorado College. Describing private schools as major contributors to the history and economy of Colorado, Riley said the issue is the state's responsibility to maintain quality and diversity in higher education in Colorado. The cost of education is substantially equal in public and private schools, Riley said, but the price is different because of state subsidies of public schools. · He said that students in private schools now pay about 70 percent of the cost of education through tuitio~, while students in public schools pay only about 25 percent. According to figures presented by Grant, the difference in tuition rates between the University of Colorado and the private schools is about $6,000 per year. Riley said private education in Colorado is basically healthy now, but he added that the gap in tuition must be closed now to maintain that health. He said the bill is not a bail-out for finan- · cially troubled private schools. Even though all of the committee members said they supported the idea of the bill, none spoke hopefully about its chance for passage this session. "I support the idea, but they (the sponsors) have to come up with the money," Hernandez said to reporters after the vote. D

In just his second semester at MSC, Gianneschi is part of the planning and organizing committee for Carnevale. When Metro and Larimer Square Associates began to plan Carnevale last November, the festival was scheduled for 1987. But Gianneschi wanted to move quicker.

"There was a great deal of excitement on the project, so we didn't want to see that excitement dwindle away in 13 months. We wanted to take advantage of it," Gianneschi said. While this year's Carnevale is a three day event, Gianneschi said he hopes next year's festivities will be an entire week.

Metro biology major, on her way to the Auraria Library to research her physics project. It's late on a Thursday afternoon, and she would like to find several books so she can begin reading when she gets home from work that night. She has 45 minutes to complete her mission and get to her place of employment. Jennifer enters the warehouse-lik~ structure and dashes toward the PAC (public access catalogue} to look up her books on the computer. She goes through the process of entering her subject and locating the area in which she should look for her books. After jotting down the call numbers of six books, Jennifer goes upstairs to - Section QC and starts looking. No books. Not one. She then heads down to the circulation desk to inquire about the possible whereabouts of the books.

~orking

She is told by the student behind the desk that four of the books have either been placed in the wrong section or are in the shelving area and will be put back in the proper place in two to four days. The other two books had been checked out and would be

held for her when returned. This doesn't.help Jennifer, who now has 10 minutes to get to work. no books and an extra errand to run tomorrowa trip to the Denver Public Library to find some research material. To make a long story short, Jennifer ends up doing her physics research at the DPL-at her inconvenience-and chastises the campus library's policies. "Why don't they ever seem to have the books I w~nt?" Jennifer asked. This had happened to her more than once before. "Why don't they locate the books, or if they've been checked out of the library, have a free day so students can brin~ them back without a fine?" she said. As we ponder Jennifer's questions, Abby Miller, library technician in charge of circulation, offers some of her answers. "Quite frankly, I don't think there is that much of a problem with missing books," she said. "Much of the time, what happens is that people try to return books to the shelves, thinking they are being kind to us, and they place them in the wrong sections. . "Books are being returned better since the present fine system went into effect. People know they'll be fined if they don't return the books, so they do. "People generally don't try and steal

.r,

books from the library; they just forget they have them. They've been packed up and moved to another part of the country or something, then people call us and ask if we want them to send the books in." Th~ Auraria Library's current fine system went into effect in May 1984, when the library switched over to a computer cataloguing system. The library contains 450,672 books in its reference and circulating collection, and 275,000 of those volumes have been put into the computer cataloguing system, according to Jean Hemphill, associate director of the· Auraria library.

The

volumes not in the computer now are put in as they are checked out of the library. "They are basically books that are used infrequently." Included in this group are old dictionaries, teacher's editions, librarian training books, Library of Congress volumes-the "old stepsisters no one wants," Miller said. H a student cannot find a book he does want, the circulation department will put one of two types of tracers on it. If the book has been entered into the computer, a computer tracer will be implemented. The library has record

of the book because it's in the computer, and the circulation department and shelvers will physically search for it. H the book is one of the old stepsisters and has not been entered into the computer, a "filled-out tracer" will be implemented. This means the circulation department and shelvers will look for the book, and if they don't locate it, the tracer is sent to the acquisitions department. They do a final search for the book, and if it is still not found, will consider ordering it for the shelves. "One-third of all 'filled-out tracers' are found, and almost all of the computer tracers are found," Miller said. She also said another "free day" for students is not in sight. "When we had the last "free day" for ·students, when we went to the computer cataloguing system in May 1984, the administrators told me that was it-we would not do it again," she said. It may not be possible to solve every mystery at the library, but Miller has a suggestion for students who want to help avoid problems. "Leave the books you use in -the library on the tables-our shelvers will put them back on the shelves and we will all be able to find them," she

Metropolitan State College accounting students will prepare federal income tax returns for the poor and elderly in an Internal Revenue Service sanctioned Voluntary Income Tax Assistance program Saturdays, Feb. 8 through April 12, 11 a.m. to 3 p.m., West Classroom, Room 140. The service is free and open to the public. The Auraria site will be closed March 29. Dr. Leon Marks, assistant professor of accounting, designed the MSC V.l.T.A. program to involve students and alumni. Students who participate

in the program are enrolled in Accounting 390, an upper division accounting class. MSC alumni, who work as public accountants, will review all returns. V.l.T.A. operated for 16 years throughout the United States with volunteer I.RS. agents donating time and expertise. Marks' idea to establish a college-based V.l.T.A. program was original, however. In 1985, the l.R.S. commended his efforts arid established the program as a model for the United States. This year's V.l.T.A. program is larger than ever. More than 20 juniors and seniors have enrolled. Marks said the V.l.T.A. class provides practical training.

An increase in the awareness of liquor liability is partly the result of the recent attendance of student activity administrators and Mission staff at a training seminar by Project"B.R.l.T.E."

serving alcoholic beverages on campus, including those responsible for club events serving alcohol as well as game room and Mission servers.

Iris Fontera, public relations director for the CCHE, felt that the elimination of Education as an undergraduate degree program may cause as much controversy as the cap issue. "Education would no longer be offered as a degree,'' Fontera said. "Anyone who wanted to teach would major in an academic discipline and take education courses required for becoming a teacher, but no more than 25 percent of the B.A. would be in education." As implementors of what the state

Joint Budget Committee passes into legislation, the CCHE is like the royal executioner only following orders from a higher authority, in this case the state government. Fontera is waiting for a reaction from students and educators to the program discontinuance policy. "This issue won't come up for discussion until March and when it does we expect a lot of hue and cry," Fon-' tera said.

OPINION Reader Objects to Vendetta Editor, What is the purpose of your -"Who is Paul Magelli?" vendetta? What is the significance of the fact that many of us know that Dr. Magelli is our college president, and many of us do not know? My guess is that at small, expensive, private colleges, virtually all students know their president's name, while it is not unusual for students at large schools not to know their president's name. Metro is_the largest four-year college in the country. Dee G. Tra8en Junior, MSC

Is Ignorance Sig.n ificant?. Bob Darr Associate Editor

What is the significance of a college population that doesn't know the name of the college's president? The same significance is found in an adult population that doesn't know who is the chief justice of the United States. Most people don't even know who represents them in state and local government. Our society is based on an informed public maldng rational decisions based on a working knowledge of the issues. H the public doesn't know the issues or the players in the political game, how can any decisions be made? Metropolitan State College is a political organism. The administration of the college makes deciSions that affect us every day. As students, we share a common interest in these decisions. Yet a remarkable number of students don't know, or even care, what policies are created. They don't care until the effects of these policies jump up and bite them on the ass. Once bitten, they cry and moan about how unfair everything is. Metro is the largest four-year college in America, but is size a legitimate excuse for an ignorant student body? I find it hard to believe that the cost of your education (relatively inexpensive) excuses you from involvement in the decision making process. U you don't know who is making the decisions that effect your education, how can you influence those decisions? We are carrying out a vendetta at The Metropolitan. A vendetta against an ignorant and uninvolved student population. When the majority of the responses we get on our ~-on-the-street interviews indicate .an increase in student awareness, then we will stop asking, "Who Is Paul Magelli?" and ask something ·~ D

'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the house, not a creature was snoring, not even a mouse. It would have been a merry Christmas if you were a thief walking Ninth Street Park on the Auraria campus Friday morning. And if you were a thief entering the public relations offices at 1033 Ninth Street, you could have found a house quiet enough to hear a mouse. I just happened to have a 9:30 a.m. appointment and at 9:2.5 a.m., I walked into the house. No one was sitting at either of the two reception desks. I glanced into the back office and found it deserted. Hmmm, I thought. Where is everyone? 111 just go upstairs and ask where everyone is. I found my hello answered by an echo. Then my imagination ran wild. No one is here. wpat if someone walks iri the door right now. Will he think I'm a thief? Thief, thief?

But I had better get out of this house before someone walks in and sees me in here all alone, with the door open. I'll do them a favor and make sure someone doesn't rip them off, I thought. With all the records, supplies and other merchandise fn that office, it was a candy store open to the public. D

It is a refreshing but rises far above .s lapstick. It is a and delightful production of a British comedy of situation: Brindsley must return all of Harold's furniture before farce. A farce is usually defined as a light, the blown fuse is repaired, an electrical humorous play in which the plot repairman with German accent ("Kit" depends upon a skillfullymanipulated Stephens) is mistaken for the art collector, Brindsley's old girl friend Clea sneaks in and wreaks havoc.

For a brief moment, one feels uncomfortable, feels the play may suddenly take the tack of moving human drama, but quickly much of the cast is chasing Brindsley with swords and the farce closes the show. The moment of pain, however, remains a potent seed pushed deep into the raucous earth of the comedy. It gives the pompous Colonel a further dimension of caring father, gives Brindsley a malevolent edge,

gives the bubble-headed Carol our compassion. The minimal set by Steve Eagleburger blossoms with the action, never competes with the actors and supports the play well路. Eagleburger takes an admittedly small space and gives us several rooms, hallways, and even a cellar, yet he succeeds in maintaining a necessary openness. Holly Kennedy contributes colorful and accurate costumes. Her dressing of Daddy the Colonel, coupled with Iannessa's wonderfully rubber face make the man an outrageous caricature.

Spyro is Gyrating Th

Progression May Alienate Fans .. Spencer Nlckel Special to The Metropolitan

All bands need change. A band needs to constantly excel , grow and experiment with new directions. It helps keep the music fresh and fun. It keeps a general sense of enthusiasm alive. In the process of such change however, it is possible that a group may alienate a certain percentage of its loyal fans. Spyro Gyra's Wednesday night show for a not-so-sold-out audience at the Lincoln Center in Fort Collins may be evidence of just such an alienation. Fans were quiet and surprised as Spyro Gyra shuffled through the two and a quarter hour show with little of the hard-hitting jazz rock backbeat that has become the band's trademark. That's not to say the change is for the worse. It just may not be what most of the fans want to hear. Much of the reason for this recent change lies with Richie Morales and Julio Fernandez, the groups newest members. Although a quicker, more technically skilled drummer than Eli Konikoff (the band's previous drwnmer), Morales lacks the simple punching

drive that Konikoff added to the group. Fernandez is much less aggressive than previous guitarist Chet Catallo, though certainly not at all lacking in skill or technical ability. Through most of the show Fernandez is more seen than heard as he moves and dances more than Catello and plays quieter. Maybe these new guys are just too good for us old "Access All Areas" fans. The band seems to be leaning toward more of the traditional jazz sound these days with quick, soft, shuffle rhythms interspersed with big band style punches. There were moments, of course, when we were able to see the old Spyro t;yra. Bassman Kim Stone put together a piece that was in itself worth the price of admission. He calls the piece "Bob goes to the store." The song comes complete with narrative about Stone's dog, Bob, going to a store in Boulder. The tune is built around the · old Spyro Gyra get-up-and-dance fusion framework that the band's present following bas come to expect. Reminiscent of the band's previous work is a new tune off its upcoming album. As yet untitled, the piece fea-

Jay Beckenstein tures guitarist Fernandez and percussionist Gerardo Velez. The song consists almost entirely of acoustic guitar and congas and is a kind of acoustic fusion. Although seemingly experimental, the piece works out well and has the familiar rolling melody lines and gradual energy buildup seen in previous Spyro projects. One of the group's new directions is Tom Shuman's fascination with electronics. This year's Schuman solo number was a multi-layered syntho-show that came across as shallow and boring, although very technical. Even though we can see that all those sounds are coming from one guy, we're all sure Tom only has two hands. Moralez has also added electronics to his drum set, and boy dQ those new electric drums look good. But looks are about all they add to the group. Next to the superbly tuned and mixed acoustic drums the electronics are tinny and hard to hear. Jay Beckenstein, the group's distinctive horn player, blew his heart out despite occasionally getting lost beneath Schuman's identical keyboard melody lines. Beckenstein does seem to have traded some of his solo tactics for dancing stage gyrations. A trade-off which, although perhaps unnoticed by many, doesn't seem to be in balance. Dave Samuel's trademark vibe and marimba work awed the crowd as he played several outstanding, extended solos with mind-boggling precision and emotion. And, as always, percussionist Velez worked his buns off for the crowd's attention. How can anyone move that well and still play that well? Overall, the quality of the show was ./ outstanding. Spyro Gyra seems to be growing up in the jazz world, perhaps in response to statements like "yeah, but it's not really jazz," and is becoming an even more talented and skilled group of jazz musicians. Still, there are those of us who will miss the high energy and excited innocence of the band's earlier work. D Spencer Nickel is a Jazz drummer living in Englewood.

"There's a lot of conversation between players (in the music) and I think it's improvised and spontaneous conversation." Jay Beckenstein

Group Says Fans Important to Show Robert Davis Editor

kile, the dis ing the Ad new enges.

Last Wednesday, Spyro Gyra dueled with a crowd in Ft. Collins in an attempt to lull each other to sleep. On Saturday the scene was completely different. At the Rainbow Music Hall in Denver the audience and the seven member jazz band fought it out to see 'who'd have the most fun.' The audience won. Perhaps it was the weekend atmosphere that livened up the Denver crowd. Or maybe the mid-week sluggishness dragged down the folks in Ft. Collins. But something was clearly different. At the Wednesday night show at the Lincoln Center the band's first song didn't even wake the crowd from the nap incurred from waiting to get in. During the second piece (Mardi Gras from the group's last album, Alternating Currents) saxaphone player Jay Beckenstein played his solo almost note-for-note the way it appears on the album. Not exactly what the crowd had come to hear. But in Denver, the band was showered by enthusiasm and a party atmosphere after the first song. Beckenstein, on the same Mardi Gras solo, jammed twice as long and flew off both ends of his tenor range to hoots and cheers from the audience. It was a mutual effort by band and audience. All night the crowd would go crazy over a player's solo, who, in tum, would churn out hard-hitting jazz. "If the audience responds in general it does a lot for the band," says the band's creator and saxaphone player, Jay Beckenstein. "A good audience can be inspirational. On the other hand a really dead audience can ruin a good thing. "I mean, it's not that we go up there and play poorly but if the audience isn't appreciating it much we won't put

out as much.'' What started as a spark of excitement from Beckenstein, exploded into a full-on jam session by seven seasoned musicians. "H someone in the band is unusually hot, everyone else will try a little harder," Beckenstein says. The band members often talk to each other through their music. · "I think there's alot of conversation between the players and I think it's spontanious and improvised conversation," he says. But the messages sent to the listener should be different at each sitting, Beckenstein says. "I've always enjoyed music that doesn't tell me what I was supposed to be feeling," Beckenstein says. •'Music talks to people the way you'll smell something-a perfume or somethingand it really triggers·a memory from a long time ago. You know, it makes you feel things. I think music at its best is evocative in that sense." He says his music will be perceived 10 different ways by 10 different people. And that, he says, is 'hipper than words.'

Although many songs come from r:- -:periences and feelings that could easily be put to verse, Beckenstein says he'll never put his music to words. "Taking the Plunge, for example (another song on the Altematin.I{ Currents album) was written about meeting my wife and I was very tentative about getting married and when I did it was real1y, really a blast," Beckenstein says. "So the tune is romantic and tentative and then really happy. That's about as far as I went in trying to convey a message." Is it the audience or the band that sets the tone for the evening? Both. The band is a highly energized unit gyrating through the modern jazz world. The group is so powerful that they must regulate the output for their 200 shows a year. H the party is right, they're the first to make it.slµne. H the scene is dead, they11 save the power for a crowd that has potential. But the crowd that's out for an evening of hot jazz appreciation will never forget the tightness and fun the band shares. D

MetroStyle ''Mishima'' a Skillfully Sculpted Suicide DelightS, Stuns and Becomes-Art Bob Haas MetroStyle Co-Editor

Ken Ogata stars as Mishima

On Nov. 25, 1970, Japan's celebrated novelist Yukio Mishima committed public suicide by the ancient ritual method of seppuku-self-disembowelment. His suicide, like his flamboyant life, attracted international attention. At 45, he was at the height of his physical and artistic talents. The Nobel Prize contender left a wife, two children, and an impressive body of widely translated work. "Mishima: A Life In Follr Chapters" is a powerful film that explores this man and his works. Mishima's passion for integrating words with reality is skillfully woven into a tapestry of image and action by director Paul Schrader, ("American Gigolo" and "Cat People"). The film, executive produced by Francis Coppola and George Lucas, marks the first time an American has directed a major Japanese film. The film is composed of four parts labeled "Beauty," "Art," "Action," and "The Harmony of Pen and Sword." Each segment contains pieces of Mishima's life, and highly theatrical transla-

tions of his novels. The film opens on the morning of Mishima's death, and with that story moves in direct narrative fashion toward his dramatic suicide. This main story is broken and bolstered with black and white episodes from the artist's past, told in voice-over docudrama fashion. We see a sensitive boy develop into an adolescent poet. We watch him grow into a celebrated artist and political activist. These two stories are further interrupted by colorfully surreal dramatizations of three of Mishima's novels: The Temple of the Golden Pavilion, Kyoko's House, and Runaway Horses. These three lines of the film come together into a collage of arrestingly edited pieces of Yukio Mishima; they are his life, his work, and his death. They are further divided and integrated into the four parts mentioned above, resulting in a thoughtful and satisfying whole. The film is quantumly less complicated than is this description of it; it is in fact disturbingly~asy to follow. Disturbing because one is aware of a constant tug at the back of the neck or base of the skull. It is a tug of non-cerebral communication, of passion and thought

transformed into image and action. The film becomes more than artistic creation, it becomes its own subject. This is no accident but is a master's trick. Mishima himself grew increasingly interested in becoming art, rather than just creating it. An iron-pumping obsession with the physical form parallels Mishima's obsession with discovering the greater truth held within a synthesis of artistic, platonic beauty and action. As a character in one of the segments says, "A man's desire to become beautiful is always a desire for death." Mishima's suicide is the final artistic action. The film is entertaining, thoughtprovoking, and highly rewarding; it is a stunning success. Its technical precision makes effortless the transfer of celluloid image into brain wave image. We can't discuss it. We can only share it, and you must see it first. Go see it. Share it. It is a rich delight of thought, image, and feeling. It _is a breath of beyond art.

~Hail Mary .. draws

a crowd

~ Blessed Be the Sidewalks We Shilre David I. Colson MetroStyle Co-Editor

It was a good night for protesting, or

for waiting in line-a warm winter evening, God must be smiling. · But on whom? On the protesters. who shuffle by, one after another like the beads on a rosary that pass through praying hands. Or, on the movie-goers who wait for the doors of the Ogden Theater to open and for the film "Hail Mary" to roll onto the screen. From Jan. 26 through Feb. l an unusual collage of humanity was brought together at 935 East Colfax because of "Mary," a biblical virgin and beca1:15e of "Mary," a film protagonist. But the French film "Hail Mary" might have been a sleeper, like most foreign films in America, if it hadn't had controversy on its side. Nothing draws a crowd like a crowd. Unfortunately for devoted patrons of the virgin, their defense of her honor-a mass in Rome, articles in The Denver Catholic Register and the holycard-poster-bearing rosaries on Colfax, only succeeded in building a bill board which lured Ogden patrons out of their TV-side easy chairs and into theater chairs to eat popcorn and watch the protagonist. So, to quote a not yet sainted but somewhat well-known American author on the subject of things on this planet not going quite the way we expect them to, "Poo-tee weet," which, when translated from ·the language of a tweeting bird and into English, reads, "So it goes." _ And, so it went for the protesters.

Their efforts to defend the virgin and to condemn the film only managed to inspire a pilgrimage to the box office. The curious included more moderate Catholics, more liberal Catholics, used to be Catholics, know a Catholics, and might some day marry a Catholics. On the other hand, unfortunately for the curious, the four dollar and 107minute pilgrimage to see the French film "Hail Mary" was spent on a second-

rate film, which compared to "Diva," is as emotionally stirring as the sil-

houette of a belly button, and, compared to "The Return of Martin Guerre," moves towards its climax like a Saturday morning cartoon. "Poo-tee-weet." Although the film has its strengthssound photography, an interesting and comic portrayal of the angel Gabriel, and a believable characterization of

Mary-it is an intellectual tease. Cluttered with confusing scenes and choppy subtitles, this film steals a classic story and fails to do it justice. Perhaps a warm winter night is not God smiling. Maybe it is God laughing. 4ughing with that same ornery-boy humor he had when he created the venomous snake. In any event, it was a good night for sharing sidewalks. o 1: I

Roadrunners Start Fast, Finish Slow in New Mexico Scott Moore Sports Editor

It was the fun and sun of New Mexico vs. Metro State in men's basketball last weekend. Unfortunately, the trip ended up in a dead tie for the Roadrunners. It didn't start that way. The Roadrunners invaded the College of Santa Fe Saturday night and raced to a 21-7 lead on a jumper from Freddie Burgess, then stretched it to 31-16 on a layup by Rich Grosz four minutes before the half. In the second half, with Metro leading 37-28, the Roadrunners shot a sizzling 80 percent from the field (20-25) to seal the victory. The 80-71 victory was especially pleasing to assistant coach Ben Morris. "It was the most consistent game we played all year," he said. "(We) took it to them and kept the pressure on." Every starter scored in double figures for Metro with Ambrose Slaugh- . ter keying the charge with a team high 15 points. "We played together as a team," Slaughter said of the games biggest factor. "The dfficials let us play inside." Grosz and KeYin Trujillo added 14 points apiece while Thomas Murphy and Craig Hyman contributed 12 and 10 points respectively. Sunday morning the team piled onto a bus bound for Las Vegas and a 1:30

Composure Assists Women Hoopsters in Weekend Wins Rob Ritter Reporter

Head coach Cindy Guthals said the MSC women's basketba.ll team is finally comfortable playing together. H back-to-back wins over the University of Alaska (Fairbanks) last weekend aren't proof enough, the first-year coach points to her team's composure when Fairbanks attempted lategame rallies that fell short in both games. , "We were up by 18 points on Friday," Guthals said, "but the girls were determined to not let Fairbanks win." The girls followed the 76-68 win Friday with a seven point victory Saturday night. Guthals said the 66-59 final on Saturday was even closer than the final score indicated. She credited an improving full-court press in the win. "We still don't know how to coverage, but our press is getting better and better," Guthals said. Guthals praised her entire team in the wins. By singling out three starters for their impressive play over the weekend. "In both games, Lisa Rains, Cathy Klazura and Heidi Keyes played excep-

Coming in at 2-15, the Cowboys left at 3-15 when it clipped MSC 57-55. "It boiled down to turnovers (and) a couple of key lapses in key situations," tionally well," Guthals said. In Saturday's contest, point guard Tami Davis injured her ankle and was taken to the hospital for x-rays. "I hope it is not a break," Guthals said. "We don't know yet. We'll be hurting if we don't have her. I don't have another point guard to back her up." The team will travel to Pueblo Thursday to play the University of Southern Colorado. Guthals said it has an excellent chance to notch another win because her team's height advantage over USC. Its next home game is Tuesday, Feb. 11 against the Air Force Academy.

coach Bob Hull said. The Roadrunners led 20-14 midway through the first half and then watched the Cowboys go on an 11-point spree that put them behind 25-20. MSC went back up at 43-42 on a layup by Grosz, then fell behind for good.

"I would've liked to run a little more," Hull said. "When you outshoot a team (a loss) shouldn't happen." Metro actually ha<l the chance to send the game into overtime. It got the ball off a missed free throw with 10 . seconds left, took it past midcourt and called time with seven ticks left on the clock. Hull designed a play that got the ball to Murphy on the left side, but his shot caromed off the rim as time expired. After the game Hull 路talked about Grosz's play. "Rich is just super," he said of the 6'7" sophomore center. "Game in and game out we're outrebounding them. The last five games he's been in double figures in rebounds." Trujillo, the senior point guard, aISo was singled out by Hull, who noted that Trujillo has done an excellent job of getting the ball up the court and running the team. Against Highlands, Murphy earned team high scoring honors with 16 points. Grosz added 14 points to go along with a game high 13 rebounds. The Roadrunners outshot NMHU 54.5 percent to 44.1 percent from the field and had two more buckets from the charity line but fumbled its way to 17 turnovers, a.number Hull thought was a lot higher than the actual stat. The next game will be Wednesday night in Colorado Springs vs. Colorado College. Tip-off is at 7:30 p.m.

Junior Transf-er Follows Tradition

, Basketball-Crazy Klazura Keys MSC Success Brad Dunevltz Asst' Sports Editor

Basketball is a tradition at the Klazura household. When Cathy is in the mood for a pick-up game, she looks no further than her family. A soft-spoken, 22-year-old ju:nior, Cathy Klazura is a starting forward for the MSC women's basketball team. Her father was also a hoop player and Cathy has followed his footsteps. Her three brothers and one sister also enjoy playing basketball. "My dad, that was his interest," Cathy said. "We started when we were younger, just shooting a plastic ball into hoop." A star was born. And, indeed, Klazura is one of the brightest stars of the young Metro team that is finally beginning to shine. The 11-women roster has four freshmen, three sophomores and only one senior. After losing its first nine games, it has won seven of 11 and is currently enjoying a four game win streak.

Through 16 ~ames, Klazura has averaged 8.3 points, and six rebounds per game, while shooting 45 percent' from the field. Aftet_ graduating from Bear Creek High Scbool in 1982, she went to school at Fort Lewis College in Durango for one and a half years. She took a year

"We work as a team," Klazura said about the Roadrunners' mid-season turnaround. We seem to do better when we're not pressured to win." And pressure can mount up when a team has lost nine straight.

Klazura can look forward to the rematch next season, her senior year. She is interested in physical therapy but isn't sure what her degree will be. "It depends on if they (the UCD physical therapy program) want to accept me or not," Klazura said. "If not, I'll get a biology degree at Metro." Klazura lives with her family in Idledale, a small town about 2.5 miles west of downtown Denver, near Morrison. At Bear Creek, she lettered three times in track and twice in basketball. She also ran cross country and played on the volleyball team. A devoted student and a dedicated athlete, Klazura is happy at Metro and playing for the team is very important. Also, it makes the 40-minute drive to school more bearable. 'Tm really enjoying life now," Klazura said, "and basketball is a big reason why because I've always liked it." In fact, she was raised on it. Basketball is a family affair for the Klazuras.
