Fees up-CoPIRG out Last week Metro students said "yes" to a possible hike in student fees, and "no" to CoPIRG, the controversial public interest research organization. However, due to complaints of unfair ele~tion practices, which were submitted prior to the poll closures, the results of the election remain unofficial, according to student activities Director Yolanda Ortega. The unofficial results favor Mark Gerhart and Gina Houx for MSC student body president and vice president, Debbie Olenski for MSC student trustee representative, and approval of the referendum supporting an affirmative action policy.

ON CAMPUS Metro and Shenyang agree to student/faculty exchange. Bob Autobee Reporter

Metro State College and Shenyang Construction and Engineering College of Shenyang, China, agreed to an exchange of one student and one faculty member for the 1987-88 school year in an announcement made last Friday. MSC President Paul Magelli and

three officials from Shenyang including Shenyang College President Qi Guoyi, agreed to the exchange after an hour-long meetinp; . Michael Tang, interpreter for the Chinese and director of Research and Grants for the Office of Institutional Advancement, says the exchange opens a world never before available to the MSC student.

"(The) Chinese found MSC like their own college in She-. nyang," Tang said. "This made the negotiations easier when it came down to including one student in the exchange along with the one faculty member." According to Tang, there won't be an announcement until later in the year of when the student-faculty exchange will take place. The bulk of the meeting Friday dealt with small aspects of culture shock that await visiting Americans. "We did negotiate that student and faculty receive appropriate housing and that they wouldn't have to rely on student dormitories that usually sleep up to eight people," he said. "We've

As any good capitalist will tell you, if you want to impress someone from outside the United States, esptbally someone from a communist country, take him grocery shopping. That was the plan of Michael Tang, acting director of sponsored research and grants in MSC's Office for Institutional Advancement. For the past week, Tang and political science teacher Sophia Wang have escorted three visitors from Shenyang in the People's Repubic of China around Denver. One of their first stops was the King Soopers at 13th and Speer. The main reason three Chinese were in Denver was to discuss the possibility of a sister college agreement between MSC and Shenyang Construction and Engineering College. Before they were to . discuss the agreement, the three, Shenyang President Qi· Gouyi, Chairman for Academic Affairs Ma Jincia and Xue Ge, director of English Education, were scheduled to visit George Washington High School, KWGN-TV and drop in on various Metro classes.

The tour's first stop was the delicatessen, bypassing King Soopers lasting gift to free enterprise, the 10 cent hot dog stand.

Jon Walter is leaving Metro! I'm glad for him. Nonetheless, his impending departure bums me up. Fact is, Jon Walter - the most unprofessorial professor I've ever known - ticks me off. He's leaving me adrift. Such a gem, in and out of the classroom. Such a giver and doer. Such versatility. Such creativity. So talented. So sparkling. But he's leaving us. Talk about a teacher! None better - anywhere. Ever see the rapport he has with his students, past and present? Ever see how freely he gives of himself? And yet such standards. If we could but purchase the gifts he possesses how much richer we'd be - all of us. That damned wit, that crunching bite, that infectious, impish, cosmic grin! . I'll never forget how he cracked up Johnny Carson on his first appearance a few years ago with his brilliant Rube Goldberg wood carvings and contraptions. With his underplayed humor. · He made Carson laugh - and laugh and laugh and laugh. So much so that the master talked him into another appearance. . Yeah, that Jon Walter. He's leaving the speech department and heading west after this semester, after 15 years of giving his all to this college and its students. Giving his all to us. We - I - can't afford to lose him. I went into teaching because of paragons like Jon Walter. But in more than 20 years in this business I've met no other like him. He helped me retain a modicum of sanity, of humor, of necessary and healthy self-deprecation, of downright glee! I feel so sorry for his students: I feel so sorry,

too, for the hundreds in the future who will never experience him. Artist, set designer, playwright, cartoonist, writer, director, satirist. Teacher! Irreplaceable. But he's got to do what he's got to do. And somewhere soon along those shimmering California coastlines and up in the intellectually simmering hills surrounding Berkeley others will get to share him. Such fortune will bathe them. Can you see why I'm upset? In a jungle of puffed up pretension, of ostentatious pedigree, of turgid pedagogy, of staid haughtiness, he shone through, a laser beam of humanness. In a nearly barren garden, a constant blossom was he. A friend. Many of us, young and old, will miss him more than he will ever know. We simply can't afford to lose him.

"They are amazed that foods that are common in their country, pea pods and bean curd, can keep so well and so long on the shelves," Wang translated. "In China, they don't have many supermarkets, so what's brought to the market on a certain day is cooked that night." The guests also did some comparison shopping.

manager to bring some strawberries for his guests to eat. The produce manager returned a few minutes later with a cardboard tray full of strawberries the size of cinder blocks. The party dug in but stopped at one, saying that one berry was a meal in itself. Each man observed and walked around the store with a gentle, grandfatherly air. They may have had cuffs on their trousers and very small lapels on their jacke~s, but their well-worn suits of the 50s hid the interest in their eyes when they discussed transporting produce or how much food costs in the United States.

Metro. spa·c e squeeze pushes PR uptown Bob Darr Associate Editor

Citing a severe space shortage on the Auraria campus, MSC's office of Institutional Advancement made a $40,000 move up-town last month. Auraria's landlord agency - the Auraria Higher Education Center has received requests for approximately 100,000 square feet of additional space on campus, according to Jim Schoemer, AHEC deputy director. "The state-wide average (for colleges) is about 150 square feet of space per full-time-equivalent student," Schoemer said. "Aura..ia is sitting at about 50 square feet per FTE." Harry Gianneschi, vice president for Institutional Advancement, said the President's Council (the college's vice presidents and deans) recommended the move after attempts to find space on campus failed. MSC President Paul Magelli approved the ' reco:nupendation and AHEC personnel~gaI\moving the offices March 31. , The new offices are located\f:...1380\ Lawrence St., Suite 1200. \ Gianneschi said Institutional Advancement (Public Relations, Publications, Alumni Relations, Sponsored Grants and Research and the director of Sports Information) was chosen

because its day-to-day business irivolves off-campus contact more than any other area on campus. "The move was necessary because there just isn't enough space,'' Gianneschi said. "We were the best choice to make the move because of our business." Gianneschi said he hopes the new offices will help increase community involvement and support for MSC. "It gives us a place where we can bring people from the community and give them a visual viewpoint of the campus,'' Gianneschi said. Jim Vanderhye, associate vice president for Business and Finance, negotiated a tentative three-year lease for the 5,000 square feet of office space. The first year Metro will pay $8.53 per square foot, then $9 per square foot the second year and $9.48 per square foot the third year. Metro retains the option of getting out of the lease at the beginning of each year. The lease agreement includes free use of the space from March till July of this year and a $4000 n;modeling expense account provided by the owners. The new offices will be paid for with money from the school's general fund, which is money appropriated by the state for the college's operation. D

The Vote/from page 1 voters didn't vote on the question. "I am very happy students voted in favor of the referendum,'' said MSC basketball Coach Bob Hull. "Every person needs a cost-of-living increase," Hull· said, citing the health service, recreation programs, and intercollegiate athletics as examples.

CoPIBG CoPIRG (Colorado Public Interest Research Group) lost its bid for a optional $3 student fee. About 41 percent were in favor of the optional fee, while 48 percent were opposed and 11 percent were unaccounted for. CoPIRG organizers couldn't be reached for comment.

Student Government Races In the contest for MSC student government president/vice-president, Gerhart and Houx received approximately 47 percent of the vote, with 33 percent of the voters favoring Perea and Longenecker, 18 percent were "write-ins" or unaccounted for. Ben Boltz lost to Debbi Olenski in the bid for MSC student trustee representative. Olenski got approximately

47 percent while Boltz received 25 percent of the votes casted. 28 percent of the votes were "write-ins" or unaccounted for. Since voters were to select ten student senate candidates, and only seven nominees were listed on the ballot, all running candidates were unofficially voted into the senate.

Other Ballots The referendum to amend an "affirmative action" statement in the Associated Students of MSC constitution was approved with little opposition. The referendum passed with 78 percent in favor, 11 percent opposed and 11 percent not accounted for. A "fill-in" ballot given to voters to determine what student activities are supported has not yet been calculated, Ortega said. This year's student election generated the highest voter turnout in MSC's history, according to Roberta Smilnak, associate vice president of student affairs. This year 990 students casted ·votes as opposed to about 300 students o last year.

The view from Institutional Advancement, Gianneschi's new home.

·O PINION Hei.d unfit to .represent Metro

...

·'

Editor, I'm glad Robin Heid realizes that Central Americans turn to socialist revolutions because of the misery inflicted in their land by what he called "Neanderthal capitalists." But two other assertions he made are so flawed as to demand bo~ an answer here and a deeper evaluation to his fitness to represent Metropolitan State College as editor of the alumni magazine. . First, the Nazi Party was not socialist. The name National Socialist was merely a political tactic to capitalize on the Depression-era popularity of soc~alism as an alternative to unfettered capitalism, which was widely held responsible for the economic troubles of the time. · The Nazis did advocate more goveinment involvement in the economy, but not all government economic involvement is socialism. Socialism proposes that because all capital is the result of work, those who do the work should own the capital. Socialism is traditionally and specifically anti-nationalist. Naziism, by contrast, emphasized nationalism, to the point of defining society as a single corporate entity, in which the individual must be subordinate to the "national destiny." That is similar to Heid's insulting statement that " ... human beings are capital." Heid is free to consider himself capital, but I'm at least a little more than a means of production, and many Central Americans are making the same point. That dehumanizing attitude is exactly what the U.S. right wing professes to detest about communists. Unfortunately, Robin Heid takes it father than printed political rhetoric. In a class discussion of the Chernobyl reactor accident last week, Heid expressed the opinion that because the plant and its most immediate victims were in the Soviet Union, the disaster wasn't so bad. It might even be positive, since Soviet secrecy woµld support skepticism about the credibility of the USSR in arms negotiations.

Holbrook thanks students \..

Dear Friends of the Irish Debate Series: On behalf of the 1986 Irish Debate Series participants, I want to thank each of you through this letter for your continuing support of the Irish Debate Series .. It would be impossible to single out individually all of you that make this continuing international series possible, but be assured that without your enthusiastic support this annual event would not be possible. The Irish debaters wish to share with you their addresses in· Ireland if you would care to establish a correspondence with them: Brendan Wilkins, 43 Lakeshore Drive, Renmore, Galway, lreland;.Declan McCavana, 25 Mooreland Park, Andersonstown, Belfast BT 119A2, N. Ireland; David Keane, Cahir House Hotel, Cahir, Co. Tipperary, Eire. Sincerely, Gary H. Holbrook Director of the Irish Debate Series

Such callousness is appalling. Radiation sickness, (not to mention massive burning and leukemia,) causes unimaginable agony, as described in John Hersey's chilling book Hiroshima. Heid must know this-he is well-read and knows enough about nuclear energy that he drew a good diagram of a reactor on the blackboard for this same class. If political differences inspire Heid to such indifference to human suffering, he is afflicted by moral numbness approaching that of the "totalitarians" whose attrocities he lists in his article. It isn't too far from, "Hurray, my opponents suffer," to, "Kill them if they make trouble." Whatever is-learned in the future about the Chernob)ll disaster, there is no doubt that Soviet reluctance to admit error and inform both their own people and the rest of the world has caused considerable harm. But no one who suffers a disaster wants to invite their enemies to come and gloat over it, especially knowing that those enemies hold views like Heid's. This does not excuse the irresponsible Soviet behavior, but only points out that it did, and does, not take place in a vacuum. Heid is irresponsible in his evident failure to distinguish between political passion and plain viciousness. MSC does not need such a person in any responsible position, certainly not as editor of an official publication. I strongly object to his representing alumni as editor of Metropolitan Magazine. Heid should resign. Lynn S. Ford MSC Student

To The Editor: In our college community, people are discriminating on a variety of levels against fellow staff, faculty, and students. This intolerance and bigotry rears its form in physical and verbal abuse. Discriminatory acts can be based on persistent, negative, irrational fears towards those persecuted due/to a lack of.factual education. We are attending Metropolitan State College to educate ourselves. Let us continue this education to dispell the myths and misconceptions of those persecuted. To help our community educate themselves in an area which is usually discriminated against, students seven years ago created the Auraria Lesbian And Gay Alliance (ALAGA). Beside ALAGA's usual activities, it sponsored events during Gay and Lesbian Awareness Week, April 7-11, to help people educate themselves concerning gays, lesbians, and homosexual issues. I can not and will not believe people feel good about themselves if they physically and verbally abuse fellow students by defacing/destroying ALAGA's posters, shouting obscenities to fellow students, and spitting in their face. If you would like to educate yourself or the general public and to help limit the above actions, please contact ALAGA at 556-3317 or stop by Student Center 351-B. To further help our community, ALAGA is co-sponsoring with the American Civil Liberities Union (ACLU), the National ACLU Conference on Gay and Lesbian Issues on June 21, 1986. The Conference is open to all and is to be held on the Auraria Campus. Please plan to attend. Tracy Phariss Co-chairperson ALAGA

OPINION Legal services help students help themselves Dear Mr. Perea: I wish to respond to your pre-election comment that the services of LEGAL SERVICES AT AURARIA is comparaole to free services in the community such as Norton Frickey and Associates. However, to avoid the appearance of a political response rather than informational, I have waited until after the election to reply. Nevertheless, I believe it is important to publicize this response for if a person with your wealth of Student Government experience has such a misconception of our services one can only imagine the perception of our service by the average student. Our Service operates in an entirely different area of the law as compared to Mr. Frickey and other law offices that offer a free consultation in exchange for a percentage of a monetary award obtained in a legal action. We do not enter into cases that are fee generating, for, as you pointed out, there are an abundant amount of legal offices who will take those cases without any charges in exchange for a percentage of an award. The fee for representation is generated · by the case and therefore free legal assistance is not necessary to obtain legal assistance. How our Service works is as follows: The cases are broken into two (2) classifications; court related and out of court matters. In both situations, we cannot afford the time to be of any long-term assistance to students, for we only · have one (1) part-time attorney and approximately 215,000 eligible recipients. Therefore, this prohibits entering into a case such as those accepted by the traditional law office or assisting student in an out of court matter that will take an disproportionate amount of office time. However, through the use of forms, in office documentation, a paralegal and a computer we then attempt to be of the greatest assistance we can be to any eligible student. It was the theory of those that established this office that most

'·

Cap makes

legal problems faced by students, as compared to others in a similar economic situation, are not covered by legal aid and not worth the expense to hire an attorney. We have therefore structured this office to fill that void. This includes the preparation of many legal documents such as: Contracts, wills, trusts, employment agreements, business agreements, leases, . real estate contracts, liens, deeds, etc. Likewise, if based on iny experience, I believe a student can properly represent themself in court, we offer litigation advice and in court documentation to assist the student with their case. This would include such matters as minor criminal matters, dissolutions, restraining orders, collection, small claims court, some county court matters, default judgments, motions, pleadings, and replies, modifications of previous orders, security deposits, evictions, license revocations, no fault hearings, bankruptcy, breach of contract, property damages, etc. In other words, our Service is not only a benefit for the student learning experience but answers a specific need in today's society due to legal service funding cutbacks. There are still legal services available for the very poor with a complex problem and due to some competition by attorneys for litigation that will bring a large monetary award. However, there is little free assistance for the common, everyday type problem. Our Service is set up to help students help themselves with these types of problems without incurring the cost of attorney representation. We trust this will also help in their school work by reducing the stress and anxiety caused by their problems. If you have any further questions, do not hesitate to contact this office. Sincerely, Richard J. Weinberg Director of Legal Services

Editor, The student fee increase could very easily jeopardize Metro's role and mission as a defense to preserve low-cost tuition. The conservative majority in the legislature has never really appreciated the concept behind allocating extensive financial support to uphold Metro's role and mission. An identity change would no longer justify why the state should continue to shoulder a large portion of the financial burden. A message concerning budget tolerance was sent to Metro in the form of an enrollment cap. I believe that proponents of the fee increase are on a bad connection. The intent behind the cap was designed to reduce the number of full-time students, (predominately recent high school graduates), so that the state wouldn't have to increase FTE subsidies to a growing institution. The cap would also channel full-time students into the community colleges, which were suffering from a loss of students. But there's an obvious loophole iJt the cap's restriction that Colorado representatives ar~ aware of. Some callous insights were brought out in Bob Smith's editorial last week. Mr. Smith stated that, "The more high school seniors who enroll at Metro, preferably early, the easier it is for the administrators to hit the cap by turning away late-registering older students." The basis of this strategy calculates the expendability of non-traditional students, just so Metro can gain more FTE funding. I wonder if a corcerted effort will be made to get high school seniors to enroll ahead of the "late-registering older students." When younger student applicants are targeted as the preferred consumers for Metro's services, our athletic programs become an advertising gimmick to benefit program growth. An assessment of Colorado's present political climate would show evidence of a risk involved with attempting to use athletic programs to bolster Metro's prestige. Increases for athletic programs have never been

Harassment condemned Editor It has come to our attention that the Auraria Lesbian Gay Alliance has been attacked and harassed numerous times over the course of this past year. Their posters have been ripped down, attempts have been made to break into their office, one of their members was spit on by an Auraria student, and they have been verbally abused as well. The AIDS histeria has made it 'OK' for some groups and people to pile even more abuse! This really must stop! We at Auraria Interfaith Ministry are convinced that Jesus stands with those reviled by society. All are loved by God and deserve to be treated as our brothers and sisters. A democratic society is based on the principle that all people are created equal and that each person is to be treated with dignity. Let us care for one another and live that saying: "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you." Additional Note - It puzzles us that campus newspapers haven't picked up and printed what seems to be such common knowledge. This injustice needs to be corrected. Auraria Interfaith Ministry, Joan HartJaub Virginia Broderius Don Leaming-Elmer

students expendable

viewed by politicians as priority investments by colleges that should be more concerned with academic interests. The fee increase scheme could easily backfire, since Metro has been repeatedly accused of lacking quality in academic standards. It's questionable as to how much influence intercollegiate programs have as a promotional medium for any college. There's a multitude of factors that advance the financial growth and national prestige of a school. Many of the examples of growing universities cited in The Metropolitan lately, are schools that were established more than a century ago. These schools had ample time to evolve their financial potential through more state funding than Colorado has ever been willing to provide. Financial backing from the private sector and alumni can't always be attributed to intercollegiate sports. But it's hard to find an institute where low-cost tuition rates remain intact when big business athletics assumes a role and mission of its own. The unfortunate consequences of having an athletic interest group rally for a fee increase, can best be measured by the kinds of distortion tactics they've used. A foremost example would be the Sunde} Impact Study on the public's perception of Metro. The report never suggested that Metro had a visibility problem, or any perceived deficiency in quality. The report stated that, "Awareness of MSC was extremely high - 67.4 percent of the 215 repondents on an unaided basis plus an additional 215.6 percent on an aided basis for a total of 93.0 percent. Overall, perceptions about MSC appear to be very positive." The two issues the respondents were obviously confused about concerned the enrollment cap and admissions standards . . A number of different sources have been misquoting the actual amount of student fees you'll be paying, if the Trustees approve a $12.50 increase. The fee rate will go from $28 per semester for a full-time stUdent, to $40.50 per semester. Future yearly increases have been proposed for after 1987, despite the adamant denials. Diane T.

Addicts' freeze: we all scream for ice cream )

Patricia Ingalls Reporter

j.. .

Alcoholics and drug addicts have it tough - constantly in need of a fix, longing for the rush, living from dose to dose. But at least society offers them support groups. What of the degenerate soul who's hopelessly hooked on ice cream? • the MSC student who can't calculate logarythms without a mocha almond fudge double-dip in hand, • the housewife who monthly breaks her family's budget overstocking Haagen-Dazs, • the businessman who continually loses accounts a,rranging client lunches at Mom's Ice Cream Parlor. These closet s'cream freaks need help. "The medical community is frozen in the Ice Age when it comes to treating s'cream freaks," said noted expert Dr. Baskin Robbins, 31, when he presented a lecture on the growing problem last week at St. Cajetan's Center. The first step in treating the ailment, he said, is to recognize the symptoms. After years of research, resulting in the renowned Howards and Johnson study, Robbins developed a screening test, which he shared with his lecture audience: 1) While watching television, do you hyperventilate when Dairy Queen commercials appear, depicting hotfudge floods and peanuet mountains? Never D Sometimes DAlways D 2) At home, do you lack the patience to arrange your scoops in a bowl, and slurp your ice cream straight from the carton? Never DSometimes DAlways D 3) When you go out to dinner, do you order only salad, so you can gorge yourself on mud pie for dessert? Never. OSometimes DAlways 0

\

4) Would you cheat your own mother for a banana split? Never DSometimes DAlways D If you checked always once or more, you may be on your way to becoming a s'cream freak. Although, Robbins said, no cure exists, one can alleviate the symptoms. The most effective treatment, he said, is to indulge. His research indicated that's the most fruitful fix for this frosty frailty. Therefore, as a service to its readers, The Metropolitan conducted a delectably rewarding study of the places on

campus - or within five minutes walking distance -= where closet s'cream freaks can satisfy themselves. After sacrifice to waistline and budget, leaving no maraschino cherry unturned, The Met's investigative reporter has great news: Ice cream is alive and cold in and around Auraria.

The caravan consisted of three vehicles. The 8 riders were Metro meteorology students and meteorologists teaming up to find a "severe thunderstorm, preferably tomadic." These people were chasing tornadoes Fervently. They had sophisticated equipment, forecasts that pinpoi~ted the area most likely to produce severe weather, and an excess of enthusiasm. And getting up at 3 a.m. to chase a tornado requires plenty of enthusiasm. Some might say it requires a touch of mental illness as well. The caravan departed from Denver at approximately 5 a.m. No sooner had it left the parking lot when the CB banter started. The vehicles were designated "chase l ," "chase 2," and "chase 3."

,

I

The "chase 3" driver reiterated Dr. Charles Doswell's storm chase instructions from the night before. Doswell is a veteran storm chaser and research meteorologist with the Atmosphere Research Lab in Boulder. "Remember," the "chase 3" driver reminded the caravan, "no whining!" Doswell had gone as far as to say that "all whiners were to be shot on the spot." You see, simple biological processes, usually taken for granted, (like going to the bathroom, say,) take on diaboli-

cal meaning in a storm chase. There is simply no room for bathroom stops in hardcore stormchase tactics. If one of the cars needs gas, it's ¡ bathroom time. Until a car needs gas, one will suffer. Without whining. One quickly learns to cut water intake. Relieving bathroom urges and joking about suitable punishment for whiners may sound frivolous. But storm chasing is serious. It's not a random thing, done for the sake of thrills. It's a crucial and valuable learning experience for anyone in the meteorology field. "It is one thing to study weather from a book, but to get a true appreciation you have to be there," said Tony Rockwood, associate professor of meteorology at MSC. But "being there" is not nearly as easy as it sounds. "Looking for a tornado is like looking for a needle in a haystack. We can pinpoint where the haystack will be. Finding the needle takes a considerable amount of luck," he said. Endurance helps a lot, too. All the group saw for miles and miles and miles (1,100 miles in 2 days) was flat plain after plain flat plain, and unpromising clouds. Every time a cloud even threatened to look menacing, the drivers called attention to it, only to have everyone

agree they were imagining storm clouds. Dodge City is also the site of a National Weather Service office, and more accurate data was available there. Once the new data was evaluated the actual chase would begin. ' But chances for an actual chase did not look good on the way to Dodge City. For a thunderstorm to occur, three things must be present 1) instability / (warm air near surface trying to rise and cool air higher up trying to descend) 2) moisture, and 3) an uplifting mechanism (a front, a mountain, or a temperature change). If just one of these conditions is "" absent, a thunderstorm cannot occur. And moisture was absent from Denver to Dodge City. This was not good. For many it was their first chase and they were eager to see some action. That's incorrect. They were chomping at the bit. They had been planning this trip since January. Several times it had been called off for lack of promising weather. And now, no moisture. What they had forecast was not developing. One of the chasers attempted humor , to ward off the creeping sense of disappointment: "As we all know," he said over the CB, "we are in dire need of moisture. "Will everyone please throw all your liquids out the window to contribute to atmospheric moisture. Thank you." By the time the chasers reached Dodge City, Doswell'swords from the preceding night's lecture were beginning to ring true. He had warned the excited group that chasing was mostly failure. Still, the group set to work plotting data from weather balloons, maps, and forecasts. The plotting was to determine where severe weather was most probable. They would then decide what direction to take to intercept it. But from the looks of the data, no bad weather was developing. The triple point (where cold front, warm front, and dry line meet - hot, dry air, and warm, moist air) that was supposed to be around Dodge City ~ had moved too far north. People were describing the situation as terrible. Faces once animated with excitement and anticipation were now downcast and full of disappointment. It looked as though the months of waiting and the discomfort had been in ' vain. "All the sophisticated weather instruments in the world can't help us now,'' one chaser remarked. It was decided the group would wait until ~ p .m. for newer data, and go >

The group decided to pursue that development. But that plan was ditched soon enough. While stopping for gas, the winds picked up. Dry air from the west was pushing the dry line onto the plains. The winds, combined with the low pressure, prompted the chasers to think a thunderstorm.might be building close by. Finally, tangible hints of a thunderstonn were visible. Only thirty minutes before, with frustrated resignation the chasers had decided to release a weather balloon and call it a day. Only thirty minutes before, the group's mood had been manic depressive.

to make the moment almost religious. Ev~n the one non-meteorology student was caught up in the feeling, and, took off in a mad dash, fueled by urgency and excitement, to the nearest bathroom. The dark, looming cloud, and the darkening sunset provided the prefect ending to a hard day's work. Because of the approaching darkness, the group decided to head back to Dodge Gity. The ide,U would have been to get up 路under the stonn, but darkness stifled that plan. The chances of finding a storm had been one in ten. The chances of finding

a severe tomadic thunderstorm had been one in 50. The same storm later

killed one person. The chasers had not encountered all the most common chase dilemmas: getting close but not too close, lack of roads, small-town sherrifs, the list goes on. Mission Impossible completed, the group's game plan changed from "locate severe storm" to "locate celebratory aids." "WHERE'S THE BEER?" someone shouted. "WHERE'S A GOOD PLACE TO EAT?" someone asked. So, was it worth it? The monotony, the strain on the bladder, the disappointment earlier in the day? It was. Would they do it again? They would. Just not too soon. D

The cloud continued to develop into a "strong isolated cell" (a cloud with vertical air motion). After 12 hours of disappointment, and being warned that the odds against them were incredibly high, the goal was in sight. And it looked evil. Orgasmic sound effects eminated from the driver of "chase 3," which was, by now, going 85 mph down a crudely paved backroad in an attempt to get as close to the storm as safety would allow. The chasers covered 30 miles in 20 minutes. But it was getting dark. Discussion 路 arose at to whether the chasers should continue. Someone said the full moon would help. . At dusk, in a tiny Kansas town, the ecstatic group piled out of the cars. Suddenly, the textbooks they had been studying had coine alive. . Looming in front of Jhem was the stuff of meteorology textbooks made

Puppets captivate with fantasy play Judy Johnson Reporter

"Beauty and Beast" directed by Katie Polle and casted with Metro State College players debuted May 1, with an adaptation that used puppets to capti· vate the audience. As the light descended over the spectators and fantasy materialized on stage the players assumed the lives of their puppets. Shannon Fraley (Esrildene) did an excellent job of instilling life into her prop. She was so convincing and in control that it relieved some of the distraction that puppets normally cause. The action, fast paced and engaging, allowed all the players to display their talents through amusing, as well as touching moments, without losing · their audience's attention. Though sparsely casted, the play was well-casted, and I am convinced that no one could have portrayed "Beauty" any better than Marge Irons did. And by the end of the play I had even started enjoying the intensity and volume of Michael Comcowich's (Beast) voice. 'The Sprits' were outstanding in constructing and reconstructing the sets as needed. The set blended well with the work of choreographer, April Brown, and composers, John Bundy and Mary Karsten. The music and dancing were soothing and suitable, and allowed the changes in such a way they enhanced the play. Though the play was charming, one of its assets definitely was its short length since even done with the ingenuity of new props, it is still a child's play. Nonetheless, theater consultants Jon Walter and Bob Coulson did a good job fabricating an enchanting fantasy world for an enchanting fantasy story.

And one does get profound entertainment with the realistic clucking and swaying of the horses and the acrobatic exhibit by the clock. It is a shame MSC does not have a real theater and drama deparbnent because with the talent of these players and creativity of directors like Polk, the school and the city are missing a rare treat. "Beauty and Beast" continues May 8, 9, 10 at 8:00 p.m.; May 11at2:00 p.m. Call 556-3033 for information. D

Coach harvests banner out-of-state crop Curt Sandoval Reporter

If player talent is going to be a key aspect in Metro State's hope of becoming a Division I basketball program, this year's recruiting class offers hope for a promising future. Head basketball Coach Bob Hull is attempting to recruit one of the top players in Colorado as well as some of ~ the best prospects from the state of Illinois. Hull arrived at MSC on the first day of practice last year and was not able to go after many of Colorado's top players because he wasn't familiar with the state's basketb'all programs. "! had to go back to some of my old contacts out of state," said Hull, who was an assistant coach at the University of Illinois before coming to Metro. In tum, he concentrated on recruiting the Chicago area heavily. Metro's top recruit is not only rich in talent but fits into Huffs plans to make a stronger team in 1986-87, which will be lacking depth at the post position and at the point guard, he said. Last year's co-MVP Rich Grosz is the

'

,<,.

r

only post-man returning next year. So the first year coach went after a big man and was able to get a commitment from Shefrie Staples, a 6-7 power forward from Prairie State Community College in Chicago Heights, Ill. "He's an impact player," Hull said of Staples, who averaged 24 points and 12 rebounds a game at Prarie. Staples was an All-State Junior College selection last year in Illinois. Hull said he played in four post-season tournaments and was named the most valuable player in three of those. "I see him and Rich (Grosz) playing well together," Hull said. He added that Grosz and Staples have the potential to combine for a strong scoring and rebounding connection. Staples was recruited very heavily throughout the nation. He was sought after by Bradley University and the University of Tennessee as well as Southern Illinois University. Bradley and Tennessee both were qualifiers in last year's NCAA Division I Tourament. "We're very happy to have Shefrie at Metro State," Hull said. Staples committe'd to Metro about three weeks ago Another top recruit MSC has landed

is Fred Brown, a 6-8 center out of Corliss High School in Chicago. Brown averaged 14 points and eight rebounds a game last year. "I think in two or three years you'll see great things from Fred," Hull said. While Brown is already 6-8, Hull said Brown isn't finished growing and may reach seven feet. He started playing in just the ninth grade and has improved every year. "I think we'll see great things from Fred," Hull said. At the point guard Hull has recruited Larry Jones from Weatherford Junior, College in Fort Worth, Texas. Hull said Jones, who runs a 9.4 in the 100yard dash, is extremely quick and will be able to push the ball up the court well for the Roadrunners. The 6-1 guard's numbers at Weatherford read: six assists and 23 points a game on over 50 percent shooting from the field and 70 percent from the free throw line. Hull is also working on some local talent. Shun Tillman from the George Washington state championship team made an official visit to the MSC campus last week. Hull said he is optimistic about the possibility of signing Tillman.

Hull said he is a tremendous person and a great player and he hopes MSC will be able to sign him this week. To go along with this class is Hull's "non-traditional" player, John Smith. The 23-year-old, 6-2 guard, will have two years of eligibility remaining. An excellent athlete, Smith is described by Hull as a pure shooter who is very intelligent and explosive. MSC is still in the running for David Weatherall, a 6-4 swingman from King High School in Chicago. His high school won the large school championship and he scored 18 points in the final game. Other schools still in the running are Neveda-Reno University, Arizona State University, American University, Northwestern Umversity and North Carolina State University. . Metro did lose out on Byron Hopkins, a 6-9 center from the Chicago area, who chose to cast his lot with the Naval Academy. The 16-year-old was a teammate of Brown's and was also thought to be a potential seven-footer. - Scott Moore contributed to this story

MSC's Nash, MacDonnell put decade-long jinx to rest the first time anybody has had a strong enou~ team (to challenge Grand Canyon). Arntz said his number one combination is blossoming just in time. "From the time we got to the tournament they really started turning it on," he said. "They're a hot and cold team. They're not consistently good but when the chips are down and they're pumped up, they play very well." In Kansas City, there will be a singles draw of 128 and a doubles draw of 64 from all districts in the country in NAIA. No player or players will know who they are pitted against until about IO minutes before match time. Because Nash and MacDonnell won the District VII doubles championship, they will qualify for the singles and doubles draw. Arntz said his players' chances depend on the luck of the draw. "If they get placed against a guy from a cold-weather state they probably have got a real good chance (in singles)," he said. "If they play somebody from California or Texas or one of the power states for tennis, well, then again, it depends on who the player is. "In doubles, I think they've got a better chance but it all depends on

The last time Metro State College was represented in the NAIA Men's Tennis National Tournament was almost a decade ago in 1977. Welcome back. Sophomore Steve Nash and Senior Mike MacDonnell will travel with head coach John Arntz to Kansas City, MO., for the national tournament, May 19-21. Though Kansas City is only a hop, skip and a jump down I-70 from Denver, it was a rocky road for Nash and MacDonnell to travel. Working as a team, the tandem won four straight do-or-die matches at the NAIA District VII Championships in Grand Junction last weekend. in the first round they swept Denver University's number two team in straight sets then beat Grand Canyon College's number three team in the second round in three sets and upset DU's number one duo in three sets in the third round. Then, in the championship match, Nash and MacDonnell defeated Grand Canyon's number two team in three sets to win themselves an invitation to Kansas City. "It was a great match to watch," Arntz said. "Grand Canyon has swept the last three of four years. This year is

anybody,' " Arntz said. "One thing they need to do is play patiently and not get in a hurry." Appearing with MSC from District VII will be DU, the district's team champs, and Grand Canyon, victors in the district's singles matchup.

Animosity surrounds women/ from is Despite the poor performances, this year's team left Romero filled with optimism about next year. "I got to have a better team than I had this year. I have a feeling we'll be on a winning note next year.I got a solid foundation to build on, and I'm looking for much improvement." That foundation starts with freshmen Michelle Hermosillo and Brenda Losinski, whom Romero expects to provide much needed leadership. Junior Kristy Heckman paced the team at the plate this year with a .349 average. Losinski was second with a .315 average, while sophomore Sheri McArther and Hermosillo hit .305 and .302 respectively. Only two home runs were hit this year, coming from Heckman and senior Cathy Magda. The pitching was suspect as MSC was only able to send two hurlers to the mound all year - Losinski and junior Liz Miret. Losinski sported a 6-9 record and a 1.57 earned run average. Miret

ended up with a 5-12 record and carried a 2.16 ERA. Pretty fair numbers for a ballclub in trouble, but Romero said it was more of the little things and inconsistency than anything else.

"The girls weren't thinking on their own. They would play two, three or four innings, then they would collapse,'' he said. "It was a tough season to endure all in all." But the problem didn't come about due to lack of hitting. Heckman had a .431 slugging percentage, followed by Losinski (.402), McArther (.389) and Hermosillo (.396) . The team was :ilmost equally impres- { sive in the field . Second-baseman McArther fielded at a .973 clip and third-baseman Hermosillo fielded at an impressive .917 percentage. Heckman had a .891 percentage while Magda came in at .867. The team fielding percentage was .896. The pitching staff had a combined 1.89 ERA while the women slugged the ball at .255 average.

A fond farewell to you all. We hope you have a happy and safe summer. In closing we'd like to thank some very, very special people who've made this paper what it is. This year's staff has been excellent, but a few people have worked three times as hard and three times as long to make The Metropolitan a nice place to work and a fun paper to read. They also happen to be leaving us this year so we wanted to take this opportunity to thank them for their efforts. Providing us with laughs and expertise in the production room-often referred to as Hell -has been David Colson . A painter, a poet, a writer and a friend to all, David has shaped the 'look' of the paper into a very readable package. His talents in production range from a steady hand to , more importantly, keeping the atmosphere calm and enjoyable. And speaking of the look. Lise Geurklnk has contributed her abilities and talents as agraphic artist making our ad lay-out scmothing advertisers find palatable. Not c.:ways an easy task but it's a

challenge that Lise has taken on and run with. She has managed to keep her artistic channels flowing and satisfy the pickiest of our civilization-the advertisers. And finally, Bob Darr. Last semester Bob made a habit of flinging stories back into the faces of bewildered reporters for the sake of quality. Perhaps it was his time in the Marine Corps but something has made Bob hardened yet compassionate. In other words, the perfect editor. He looks for an objective, un-biased angle in everything. This semester he's taken over the opinion pages and has tried to pass his high standards on to the rest of the staff. Bob's green thumb has also kept the office greener and made it a more livable place to work. These people have made a tremendous impact on The Met and will not be soon forgotten. Our hearty thanks to them, and to you, for your support. - The Management
