Former presidential candidate and U.S. Sen. Eugene McCarthy advocated radical political reform - including abolishing the vice presidency - to more than 300 people Oct. 12 in the Student Center. As a Democratic candidate for president in 1968, McCarthy rocked the political establishment by attacking the Vietnam War during presidential primaries against Lyndon Johnson. His campaign was run largely by college students. McCarthy ran again as an Independent candidate in 1976 and is currently on the ballot representing the Consumer Party in five states for the November election. "[The office of vice president] puts people in the position of president who shouldn't be there," McCarthy said, naming such people as Richard Nixon, Spiro Agnew and Dan Quayle. In other cases, the job "puts a good man in office and isolates and destroys him," such as Walter Mondale, he said. In attacking the electoral process, McCarthy suggested not only limiting primary elections, but also shortening the time between primaries and the election. "Mammals don't function well in February," McCarthy said, citing the early date of the Iowa primaries. He said primaries should be after March 15, and the election should. be in September. McCarthy said a September election would bring out more voters who are not being sidetracked by the World Series and the

beginning of the football season. McCarthy also addressed what he called the "problem of the media" in the electoral process. "[Individuals] should oppose religious and political ads ... People will not remember the words but will remember"the images," he said. "Reporters refine refined news ... regurgitating the essence of news." In addition, McCarthy stressed the need forÂˇ the electoral college to become a functioning part of government. He said the United States should eliminate the two party system with the addition of more parties. The worst aspect about the two-party system is that it develops a "winner takes all" attitude, creating a false unity, McCarthy . said, citing the "chaotic condition" created by the current system. Due to this, he said be believes people are coming across as apathetic politically, when in fact they are confused. McCarthy said 80 percent to 85 percent of eligible voters would cast a ballot if given the choice of several political parties, rather than the 40 percent that now vote. He said he had hoped that John Anderson, who ran on the Independent ticket in 1980, would run again this year, but realized that be won't. Finally, McCarthy posed a challenge to the audience to change the political system. "There are three levels of society on which decisions are made. The political level, the media and the academic level," McCarthy said. "I leave the burden of responsiblility on the students and professors," he said. o

._Determined student tackles Iife's cha Ilenges head-on Mark Hamstra Reporter

Seeing 27-year-old She~ Valdez scoot around campus in her wheelchair, it quickly ~ becomes obvious she is not an average MSC student. First of all, she goes back.ward. "I'm very slow forward," she explained, "and I can't move my hands controllably at all." Valdez, who has cerebral palsy, propels ,.. herself around campus by pushing along the ground with her right foot while glancing over her left shoulder, looking out for obstacles and innocent pedestrians. "I've done that [hit people with her , wheelchair] more than I like to," she said ~ apologetically. She paused to sip some black coffee through a straw, then told the story about bow she and her wheelchair were once hit by a car while crossing La~rence Street. "I wasn't paying attention," she said, but .. "nothing was damaged,just my confidence."

Although she may get around campus back-end first, Valdez tackles responsibility head-on. "She's pretty independent," said Laura Watson, program coordinator for Disabled Student Services. "She hasn't asked us for much help at all." Valdez majors in human services and plans to become a counselor after she graduates. "People keep steering me toward [counseling] disabled adults, but I'm not real sure yet," she said. In addition to her course work at Metro, Valdez finds time to write short stories and poetry, using her nose to depress the keys on her word processor. She was one of the featured writers at Disabled Authors Reading Oct. S, which was part of Handicap Awareness Week at Auraria. She read two of her poems, and watched the small audience carefully as Laura Watson read the story Valdez bad written. "I really don't know what they thought of

Board OKs space study at Auraria

scheduled to speak at Metro State Elena Frldland Reporter

Gabrlelle Johnston News Editor

The Auraria Board took the first step Tuesday, Oct. 11, toward improving campus conditions by forwarding a recent space analysis to the Auraria Executives Committee. The analysis, recently prepared by Boston consulting firm Paulien and Associates, states that Auraria needs a 31 percent increase in space in order to alleviate the present deficit. Possible solutions to the problem include constructing a building the size of Arts, West and Central classrooms combined, or renting off-campus space. The study is part of a master plan developed jointly by all three institutions concerning academic plans for the next five years. Once completed, the master plan will be given to the Colorado Commission on Higher Education. In the meantime, the Auraria Executives Committee will review the study and is expected to make recommendattons to tile Auraria Board within a few weeks.

'We will continua to try to crunch more Into the space we have, and do everything we can to free monies from both AHEC and the three Institutions.' -Jim Schoaniar. AHEC deputy director

•

MSC President Thomas Brewer said that although the study failed to accurately project enrollment growth and consider curriculum changes which might affect space, he was pleased with the report. "We have some problems with it, but it's fairly accurate," Brewer said. Brewer added that the report's problems will be refined, as the AEC continues to study the space problem. "This is only cycle one," he said. Although no action on the Paulien report will be taken for another year, Jim Schoemer, deputy executive director for the Auraria Higher Education Center, said there are some temporary solutions to the problem. "We will continue to try to crunch more into the space we have, and do eveything we can to free monies from both AHEC and the three institutions,'' Schoemer said. D

The Russian is coming, the Russian is coming! Pavel Kuznetsov, head of the North American Service of Radio Moscow, will visit the Auraria Campus Tuesday, Oct.25. He will be a guest speaker for two classes in the momin~ and will address a luncheon at 12:15 p.m. at the Student Center, Room 230AB on "Glastnost & Perestroika Problems and Prospects before the Soviet Union." The luncheon is free and open to the public. Kuznetsov, who graduated from the Moscow Foreign Language Institute in 1968, joined Radio Moscow in 1972 as a reporter. He is well-informed about Perestroika and its implications within the Soviet Union and its far reaching effects in international politics and economics. One of the unique programs supervised by Kuznetsov is "Radiobridge," a series of cassette tapes based on an exchange of views with American and Canadian citizens sent to Radio Moscow from the west. The talk should be thought provoking D and will be open for questions.

Safe sex messages ignored by students Dave Beech Reporter

Despite the barrage of "safe sex" messages, 215 cases of sexually transmitted diseases were reported to the MSC Student Health Center last year. About 75 percent of these patients said they knew a condom or safe sex practices would have helped in prevention, Nurse Practitioner Mary Duell said. Duell has been at the clinic since January 1986. Condoms are considered effective barriers against some sexually transmitted diseases. Duell called patients' knowledge about condom use both encouraging and discouraging, because while the safe sex message is getting out, people still have not changed their behavior. But in the 80s, it's important that people concern themselves with safe sex practices, Duell said. "You really can compromise your life if you're not safe,'' she said. "Previously, safety meant not getting pregnant, now it means

not injuring yourself by exposing yourself to a life threatening virus." Last year, Duell developed a safe sex lecture which deals with different types of sexually transmitted diseases, specifically AIDS. The lecture was developed in conjunction with a monthly disc~ion series and the freshman year program. She gave the talk only five times, and this year none has been scheduled. However, Duell said she would gladly give the lecture to any class that requested it. "I think it would be a nice break from the norm," she said. Other sexually transmitted diseases ultimately become life threatening, but they can also be very expensive to treat and very painful, she said. Duell said she would discuss the reasons some sexual practices, such as vaginal or anal intercourse without a condom, were dangerous and would str~ the need for using a condom during sex. Some students did not want to discuss condoms, but most

were interested and curious, she said. "I take condoms into the classroom, and everybody gets one,'' she said. "We undo it [the package], we play with it, see how it feels, what it looks like, and get familiar with it that way." In fact, Duell said it was a student's idea to open the condom package and investigate. "One woman said 'Can we open this? Can we look at this?' and I thought, well of all times, this is a good time," she said. Duell said she would take a paper bag of condoms, leave them on a desk, and at the end of her lecture, the bag would be empty. Duell would also hand out-instructions on the proper care of condoms. Ultimately though, people need to make decisions about their own health, Duell said. "You have to care enough about yourself to make these decisions to be healthy,'' she said. "I can tell you what specifically you should do or not do during a sexual act, but it has to matter to you what you are doing to your body, and that is the bottom line." D

Denver Mayor Federico Pena and Gov. Roy Romer have designated Oct. 8 through Oct. 15 Metro's 23rd Anniversary Week, giving Metro reason to celebrate despite its current growing pains. " ... Metropolitan State College has contributed to the intellectual development, cultural enlightenment, economic prosperity and career opportunities of citizens of our state .. .," Romer's proclamation stated. Metro's anniversary was celebrated by the Plain and Fancy Ball, Saturday, Oct. 8 . The ball was sponsored by the Metro Foundation for student scholarships. As alumni look back on the history of Metro, they note all the changes the college has gone through since they attended. For example, when Metro was first established in 1965, there was no Auraria campus. Rather, old warehouses transformed into classrooms, a YMCA used for physical education classes and a bar called the White Mule, which doubled as the student center. "There was no campus setting," said Richard Castro, a 1970 graduate of MSC. Virginia Castro, a 1971 graduate of Metro, said students fought against putting Metro on the Auraria campus, and in addition, fought against putting three shcools on the campus. "We always thought it was a dumb idea to put three schools on one campus," Castro said. Although the location of Metro changed, alumni of Metro said many of the philOS<r pbies of the institution remain the same.

"I think that's [the open door policy] a good aspect, but Metro has also gone beyond that," Armijo said. MSC President Thomas Brewer said he agreed Metro is a unique school and should continue serving non-traditional students, but added that Metro needs improvements in some areas. "We want to intensify our commitment to serve Metro Denver," he said. Brewer said that areas which need attention include the space deficit, faculty salaries and minority enrollment. He added, however, that there is always room for improvement in all areas of the institution. "Whatever we do, we want to do well," Brewer said. o

For instance, Metro has always had open enrollment policies, which allow any student with a high school degree or equivalent to attend Metro. Because of these policies, students in the 70 s were often referred to as the "thundering herd from the lower third," a nickname which began because most MSC students graduated from the lower third of their high school class.

Metro has a ball, makes $40 thousand ZJmC ·R: Dave Plank Society Editor

The ballroom at Marriott City Center was filled with 800 benefactors of MSC Saturday night, Oct. 8. Some in tuxedos, others in Bermuda shorts and tank tops, all for the benefit of the Metro Foundation. The "Plain and Fancy Ball" was extremely successful and organizers' hopes are high for another next year.

f.or its first year. Usually for a first-time event, organizers are content with relatively low attendance and hope that publicity generated will encourage more patrons to attend the following year. That was not the case Saturday night, however, and the ball's chairperson, Annette Finesilver, was ecstatic. "It bas taken me nine months to organize this, and having a baby would have been easier," she laughed. "But this college does so much for the com-

At the silent auction preceding the event, patrons perused tables filled with donated items, some stopping to fill out a bid sheet while others just browsed. Comments like "Wow, a trip to the All-Star game. I bet that will fetch a bundle," could be heard above the noise of the busily milling crowd The event raised money for student scholarships, and after the final tally, more than $40,000 was added to MSC's scholarship fund coffers. The ball was hugely successful

munity that it is still very satisfying." After dinner, Denver Nuggets owner Sidney Shlenker was presented with an award as MSC's "Plain and Fancy Person of the Year." He punctuated his acceptance speech with tears and confessed that when he moved to Denver it was to take the Nuggets to Miami. "But after I'd been here awhile," he said, "I had to call my partners [in the venture] and tell them that I was sorry, but I just couldn't do it."

After the award presentation, the crowd danced to the musicofTheNacho Men, hits from the '60s blaring out from amplifiers while patrons packed the floor. Denver District Attorney Norm Early and Rocky Mountain News columnist Tricia Flynn, who co-hosted the event, danced with the crowd of both Denver society figures and Metro students. For some of those who attended, the ball was not as much a charity event as a chance to get dressed up and play debutante. "I came because I wanted to put on a gown and be formal," MSC student Teresa Fleming said. "Forty bucks was a little steep, but for the price of the ticket we got dinner and a night out, so I guess it wasn't too bad." Attire for the dance ranged from ultraformal, floor length gowns and full tuxedoes to dinner jackets, Bermuda shorts, and leather mini-skirts. While most of the established Denver society figures dressed conservatively, there were a few who wore jeans and sneakers, and many of the students who attended were dressed to the nines. Items from the auction that fetched high prices were an all-Colorado ski pass which was purchased for $700, John Elway's autographed jersey, which raised $675 and the trip to the All-Star game that took in $1,200 from Danny Schayes of the Denver Nuggets. Overall, the event was considered a huge success, and hopes are high for next year. As MSC Vice President of Institutional Advancement Harry Gianneschi said in his speech, "there will be a Plain and Fancy ball next year, and I'll bet we will take up a few more floors of this hotel." o

downtown," said Philip Alexander, an Auraria student. People were relaxed, laughing, chatting. The stands offered cuisine from Korea served by women in traditional Korean clothes, vaguely familiar because of the Olympics. People from countries such as Greece, Afghanistan and Peru were selling food with strange, delicious-sounding names like gyros and bulani. Of course, one could also get more familiar dishes and beverages, like barbecue and beer. "It smells wooonderful. It really does," said Virginia Broderius, a Lutheran minister for the Interfaith Center, as she handed a cup of steaming herbal tea to one of the students. Japanese traditional summer kimonos.

"For many international students it's a big event. And it's a good event for the rest of the community on campus to support themselves, to raise money, sometimes recruit members," Bock said. "The event is sponsored by Auraria Interfaith Ministry, Auraria Higher Education Center as well as Student Activities councils from Community College of Denver, MSC and CU-Denver. Getting them all together is an accomplishment," Bock said. He pointed out that this is a chance for faculty members to mix with students and administration outside the classrooms. "They relate to each other as human beings here, and that is one of the main reasons for Interfaith Ministries." Bock said. 0

EDITORIAL-------------~ LETTERS

Leave your desk and learn the facts -(('

Editor, This letter is in response to the editorial by the editor ofThe Metropolitan, which appeared in the Sept. 30 edition. The article was regarding the CoPIRG Arbitration Committee. The decision our elected officials have to make regarding CoPIRG is paramount. It quite literally will affect the lives of every student at MSC. A decision of this proportion must be made only after all the information is disseminated and brought forth equitable. I support Justice Braddy's issuance of the temporary restraining order. I feel better knowing decisions made by the ASMSC senators are not based on half truths, personal prejudices or selectively presented opinions disguised as the representation of all the facts. Sometimes people create biases based on misinformation or lack of complete information. Case in point, the aforementioned editorial. The editor states that she thought committees were set up to "cheerfully sit down and handle such dilemmas." She makes it sound as though we were going to a

picnic. Please keep in mind this committee was formed to negotiate the concerns of a contradictory and emotionally charged issue, in which both sides wanted what was best for their respectible constituency . The editor also stated the "ASMSC President Bruce Dewitt was forced into a non-voting position on the CAC when he was about to tell the senate his opinion about the new plan to inform the students about the fee." First, the " new plan" did not, at least at that time, exist. Second, President Dewitt lost his voting privileges because of the minor political theory called Separation of Powers. Maybe you want the president to have total authority, but personally, I'm glad to see the senate utilizing the governmental check and balance system. Third , President Dewitt was not about to expound on his opinion, but rather was attempting to dissolve the CAC. Later in the editorial, a claim was made that the TAO was a "bureaucratic maneuver" by the CAC and the Judicial Board and called a " manufactured delay." I would like to remind the editor that the CAC was the

recipient of the TAO, not the creator. The Judicial Board rendered a remedy to a complaintant who was obviously concerned, and who sought redress in the proper forum. There was no manufactured delay. On the contrary, the TRO was issued to protect if not exped ite the negotiations. The press release The Metropolitan received from the Judicial Board explained this in detail. But what disturbs me the most is the editor's lack of awareness. This year's senate, for perhaps the first time, is not concerned with "domestic spats," but rather the opposite is true. This year's senate is actively debating over substantial issues, issues that are important either in application or theory. Personally, I would suggest the editor spend less time sitting behind her desk and more time investigating what is occurring both in student government and the campus collectively. Perhaps then she could make an informed and educated decision based on ALL THE FACTS. I give the editor a B for effort and a D for research, or lack thereof. - C. Mason Golden

Editor, Right, Bruce. And Richard Nixon really had a "secret plan" to end the war in Vietnam. Last spring, I found it hard to believe that you would get elected on the promise to eliminate the drop fee. I sincerely thought that the students of MSC would be able to see through the pipe dream and would vote for realism. Now that your holy crusade to make Auraria more pure through the elimination of cigarette sales has succeeded, you're able to deal with your campaign promises. Only this fight is slightly different. Instead of having the power that be, like the ABC director, on your side, you'll be on the other side of the table. This time you'll be fighting against the administrators instead of for them. In an attempt to "out-Dewitt' them, you only prolong defeat. My advice to you is this: instead of trying to trick them with a "secret plan" into withdrawing or lowering the drop fee, try using the truth to convince them that_your point of view is the right point of view. The people on the third floor have more important things to do than try to

find new ways to irritate students. Over a period of years - years you were not around - they've tried to find a way to allow the most students to take the classes they wanted and needed to graduate. The drop fee was chosen as a solution as a sort of academic nuclear deterrent. So instead of Nixonian dirty tricks let's try to remember that it is the truth that will set us free.

- Mlchael S. Majeres

Students unite effectively Editor, The library is now open on Sundays. We have, in large part, the students to thank for it. I believe that thanks are in order to all students who called to protest, circulated the petitions, and signed them. Thank you very much. This is just another example of what we can do if we work together.

A few weeks ago, I went up to the editors and asked if I could write a W eeldy Musing. They looked at each other, smiled, calmed their laughter and agreed. I could write the article. Great!! Now what do I want to write about? Maybe it was the "power of the pen" beckoning me. Power of the pen? Hahl Last time I wrote anything of substance was in freshman composition, and it was hardly powerful.

Time is the biggest enemy that all students face. It's amazing bow fast time goes by when an algebra as.5ignment is due. Trying to work out a schedule is impossible because it takes too much time to make one. How many times do we wish, "lfl only bad more time?" Unfortunately, that's after we've overslept and/or decided to watch that thrilling cable special. Everything is out of whack. I can stay up and watch "Cheers," yet opening a notebook after l 0:30 p.m. is nearly impossible. Getting up is even worse. I barely have enough time to make it to school, let alone sneak in some homework. When will it end? Hopefully before the weekend, so I can clean my room and do some yardwork. Who am I kidding? I'll weasel out of the work to do something really constructive like going to the mall.

With this in the back of my mind, I proceeded to do my homework. Radio blaring, television set tuned to the Olympics and algebra book in hand, it hit me. "It" came in the form of a commercial. "Just Do It" hailed Nike's new advertising campaign. Perfect! Just do it. What else could be so simple and yet so bold. Lately, just doing it has been replaced by "Just Put It Off." Anything and everything has been cast aside and done at the last second - this story included. "Just Do It" isn't just a shoe campaign, it's a campaign about life. This slogan is most evident in the lives of college students. We all have our busy schedules. It's just a matter of using those short twenty-four hours to the optimum. Yet it's not an easy chore to do. Alo~g with regular schoolwork, one bas to worry about a job, grad agreements, art proj ects, relationships (remember them?) and time for oneself (ha!). The list goes on, varying from one person to another.

Don't get me wrong. Every student should go out and have some fun, but not when it sacrifices their college studies. That is what we are going to school for, isn't it? One of the best lessons college life should be stressing is punctuality and deadlines. If they're not met here, are they going to be accomplished in the "real world?" Unfortunately, talk is cheap. I've tried the "Just Do It" way of thinking, and it's helped. The question is for how long? Homework and projects are all getting done, but there is an occassional lapse to put things off (I'd rather be golfing). Sometimes, I feel like saying "Just Forget It!" Well, more homework awaits. I just keep telling myself"Just Do It," then pas.5 out. o

It's time I stopped worrying about everything that had to be done and start concentrating on work I'd rather avoid. I know it's hard. We'd all rather be watching the football game, going to a concert, dancing with friends or just relaxing. Try handing in an assignment or project late to many of the professors at school and see if they are sympathetic. They don't want to hear excuses. All of us work and have outside activities. One way or another, the work has got to be completed. Nine times out of 10 it can be done (save for the occassional emergency). If it can't be done, it can't.

Moving into the kitchen, I saw lasagna. · .. On the walls. On the floor. On the table, the chairs and one of the windows. I can't say that I was surprised, though. Journalists are notoriously sloppy eaters, especially when intoxicated and without utensils. I did my duty by not letting them have forks. Friends don't let friends handle sharp objects drunk. It was the kitchen floor that really surprised me. I couldn't figure out why it was so dirty until I noticed the empty can ofReddi-Wbip in the trash. It seems that sometime during the course of the evening, somebody discovered that Reddi-Wbip on linoleum is quite ~ slick and built an impromptu skating rink between my stove and back d<?Or. I was actually doing okay through all this. It didn't take me too long to clean up the place, really, and I knew these people, so little that they did surprised me. There was one thing, though, that absolutely blew me away. After everything else was finished, the popcorn vacuumed, the lasagna scrubbed off the door handles and the Reddi-Whip scum mopped up, I went into the bathroom. < There was a panty shield stuck to my mirror.

MSC Players set stage for season comeback Denise Spittler Reporter

Love for the stage makes MSC's volunteer theater group haul scenery, choose plays and even sweep QP after performances. And only one of the MSC Players is working toward a theater degree. ..1 Although the Players come from varied educational backgrounds, their dedication to theater and the addition of an experienced faculty adviser should lead to a sllcces.5ful 1988 season. Marilyn "Cookie" Hetzel came to MSC· ._ last year with a doctorate in theatre arts and ,. atxmt a decade of teaching experience, including five years at CU-Boulder. She's also worked with the Denver Center for Performing Arts and performed in Summer Stock and nightclubs. Hetzel intends to refine MSC's theater program. "I'm here to build a theater program," she • said. And the Players welcome her expertise. "It's real neat," Players' president Jamil Khera said, "because we can really learn how things are done. Before, we were told, 'here's your theater, have fun."' .J. For the past two years, speech professor Tom Cook voluntarily supervised the students, filling a void created when Robert Coulson retired, after acting as the group's adviser for 20 years. "We've been in kind of a state of flux for ~ the past two years," Cook said. He found time for the Players between acting as speech department chair and teaching broadcast studies, but the demands on his time left much of the program to student initiative. Cook will remain a faculty sponsor for the players. Hetzel is also a sponsor, but unlike Cook, she gets paid for helping the Players. Although faculty members advised the Players in the past; this will be the first time someone has been specifically hired to direct student plays. Hetzel's new position this

year, director of theater arts program, is part of the restructuring. Sh~ sees this season as a fresh start. "We're going to be in a time of great change," she said. "Hopefully it's going to be • the start of a brand new era here." She'll make her MSC directorial debut following the Players next production. In addition to her work with the Players, she'll teach beginning acting, stage direction and introduction to theater. But students interested in joining the Players needn't have completed those courses. The Players rely on a steady trickle of interested students to fill gaps the fivemember staff can't. "We're looking to recruit people all the time," Khera said. "Diehards, so to speak, who want to be part of the theater experience." He said he'd also like to see more involvement on the other side of footlights as well as behind the scenes and under the spotlight. Students already support the Players indirectly through fees gleaned from tuition. The Student Affairs Board allotted $10,815 for the 1988-1989 season, and admission to plays is free for students with anMSCI.D. "This is why we want more people - so it benefits more than just a handful," Khera said.

The group's latest production, "1959 Pink Thunderbird Convertible," is composed of two one-act skits: "Laundry and Bourbon" and "Lone Star." MSC students Stacy Schlif, Trina . Magness and Joanne Dionese bring "Laundry and Bourbon" to life in the first act. "[It] shares the thoughts, loves fears and laughter of three Texas women during one hot afternoon on the back porch," Khera said. "Lone Star" follows, starring Metro's John Horton, Brad Erickson and . Dale Albrecht. "[It] whisks you off to Maynar, Texas, to share belly laughs and insecurities, the Vietnam War and Lonestar beer with three good 'ol boys behind Angel's Bar," Khera said. "1959 Pink Thunderbird Convertible" will play from Oct. 14 through Oc. t 23 in the Arts Building, room 271. For more information, including specific times, call 556-3403. 0

MSC lady kickers lose steam against nationally-ranked opponents John Gegner Sports Editor

Eight games in 17 days took their toll as a weary, bench-thin Lady Roadrunner soccer squad ran out ofgas, losing at home Sunday, Oct. 9, to nationally ranked University of Cincinnati and finishing the week with a 1-1-1 record. After surviving two previous weekend soccer wars, the team coach Ed Montojo refers to as "a bunch of iron women" had little left except sheer determination against Cincinnati. The game followed a scoreless

double-overtime tie Saturday at the University of Northern Colorado. Earlier in the week, the 18th ranked Division II Roadrunners trounced visiting Colorado Baptist University. During the 17 day trial, five of MSC's eight opponents were Division I schools. Sunday's l~ to the 19th ranked Division I Bearcats of Cincinnati 3-0 was a game marked by chippy play . The Roadrunners, mentally and physically tired from the previous day's marathon, came out sluggish in the first half. Cincinnati's Amy Munn caught the

MSC men's soccer squad splits road games against local foes Jay Hauptman Reporter

The MSC men's soccer team split a critical pair of league games on the road against Regis and the Colorado School of Mines. MSC beat Regis 4-2 Oct. 7, but lost to Mines 3-2 in overtime Oct. 11 . Against Regis, MSC fell behind early when Regis scored one minute and 30 seconds into the game. MSC fought back and tied the score when Tim Yunger assisted Scott Van Beek at midhalf. But Regis scored again and MSC went into halftime down 2-1 . ~ But MSC controlled the second half, and they scored three unanswered goals to cap the win. Chino Melendez assisted on all three of MSC's second-half goals.

Chris Kalman converted the first two of those assists on nearly identical plays. Both times he got behind the defense, and Melendez led him perfectly, allowing Kalman to catch up to the ball and finish off with strong shots. MSC continued to pressure Regis, and Joe Okoh had a chance to pad the lead on a fastbreak, but his shot went wide and bounced off the post. MSC charged back less than a minute later and Abdulmonem Al-Majid scored off Melendez's third assist. Head coach Bill Chambers was pleased with his team's persistent play. "It takes a lot of guts to get down a goal, come back, get down another goal and come back a second time," Chambers said. Chambers finally saw his team come

together as a unit. "It had to break sooner or later," he said. "It's what we've needed all year, and it came at a good time." Against Mines, MSC fell behind early again. Mines scored in the first five minutes when a crossing pass got over defender Kent Nelke's head, and a Mines forward was left unchecked for a point-blank goal. MSC struck back when Al-Majid scored off a VanBeek assist, and Okoh gave MSC the lead on an unassisted goal. And MSC fought to preserve their lead. Yunger saved a sure goal when MSC goalie Don Vermilye was caught out of position. Yunger headed a shot taken from inside the box over the goal and out of play. But Mines kept coming, and scored with

31 seconds left, to send the game into overtime. In overtime Yunger drew a charging penalty and Mines converted the penalty kick, giving them the win. MSC had opportunities to score, but couldn't cash in. Chambers was upset with the outcome and the officiating. He felt that Al-Majid was fouled, and a penalty should have been called on Mines. "I'm outraged," he said. "They took one away from us, and handed them one." Despite MSC's missed opportunities to score, Chambers thought the officiating was critical to the outcome. "That was the difference, it should have been 3-2 us," he said. o

Spikers claim third place in N.Y. John Gegner Sports Editor

The MSC women's volleyball team claimed 3rd place in the J .H. Oaks Classic in West Point, N.Y., Oct. 7 and 8, posting a 5-1 ,). record for the week. Metro ran off four straight wins in the weekend tournament before dropping a match to University of New Haven on Saturday. Wednesday, Oct. 5, the Roadrunners warmed up for the tournament by ._- trouncing University of Denver 15-11, 15-3, 15-9, in conference play. In Friday night's action, Metro defeated New York Tech 15-9, 15-9 and Grand Valley State 15-13, 15-13. "Grand Valley was a really good win for us," coach Joan Tamblin said, noting the l

strength of the Michigan team. Saturday, the Roadrunners topped C.W . Post 15-10, 15-11 and dropped 20th ranked Navy 15-11, 15-12, before tumbling to New Haven 15-3, 12-15, 11-15, 3-15 for 3rd place. Semifinal matches were best. of five. New Haven lost to Indiana Purdue-Ft. Wayne in the finals. MSC senior setter Verna Julaton and sophomore outside hitter Becky Kofoed were selected to the all-tournament team. Kofoed had an incredible 17 kills in the two-game Grand Valley match. The first-year coach also noted the allaround play of sophomore middle bitter Nancy Kogle whose name she said sometimes gets lost when the accolades are passed around. · o

"That took about two years to get over," she said, adding that there still are times when she feels depressed over it. As she sat in the lounge of the North Oassroom Building, her limbs moving like small tree branches in a windstorm, a young woman with some folders in her hands walked by.
