In a telephone interview aboutMSCD's assessment testing program, David Moore said, "The word here is accountability." Apparently that accountability doesn't stretch to include the students whose lives could be affected by the testing. Moore is interim executive director of the Freshman Year Program and assessment testing. While trying to follow up an article on assessment testing in the Aug. 31 issue, The Metropolitan has run into a wall of resistance from MSCD administrators. According to Freida Holley, director of program evaluation, statistics showed that more minority students were being turned back to start their college careers at community colleges than non-minority students. During the earlier interview, Moore said he had received results showing student scores, but said that he hadn't had

time to review the information and discuss it. When follow-up telephone calls to Moore went unreturned, The Metropolitan contacted David W. Williams, vice president of Academic Affairs, who expressed concern about the communication problem and said he would contact Moore's superior. Moore then returned calls, but said that he had not received the information. " And even if I had the information, it wouldn 't be appropriate for me to give it 路 out until the institution has had the time to massage it," Moore said. Moore referred The Metropolitan to Paul Wilkin ofMSCD Institutional Research. Wilkin referred The Met back to Williams who said, "I know nothing about the information you're looking for." He said the statistics were under Moore's control and the information or the reason for the lack of information needed to come from Moore. "I hate the fact that you are getting the run-around like this," Williams said. 0

NEWS Financial Aid violates Default Initiative program

Student voters QiVen Chance tO ulie Pezze register On CampUS 1--he_M_e_tro-po-li-tna_ _ __

Eligible voters may register in front of the Auraria Library from Sept. 17 through 21 from 9 a.m .. to 4p.m. In the last presidential election fewer than 50 percent of eligible voters actually voted. Only 25 percent of college-aged students voted. This means that a small group of people is making decisions that impact everyone. The upcoming general election, Nov. 6, will deal with issues affecting students, such as education, environment and health care. Voters must be registered by Oct. 12. This registration is sponsored by CoPIRG and KCNC-Denver. For information, call Sue at 5564537.

Middle East panel discussion sched· uled at Auraria An in-depth discussion of the Persian Gulf crisis, presented by the Political Science Association and the Institute for Intercultural Studies and Services, will be held Sept. 17, to examine recent events in the Middle East. - The discussion will be in the Student Union room 330 A&B from 9 a.m. to noon. Panelists will include Shaul Amir, Israeli Emissary to the Rocky Mountain Region and Hamzi Moghrabi, member of the Arab-American Community of Colorado and coordinator of the Arab-American Anti-Discrimination Committee.

Women's Studies offers scholarships The Colorado Women's Studies Association is offering four $500 scholarships to any women students who are enrolled in undergraduate or graduate degree programs for at least two courses during the fall semester of 1990. Application deadline for these scholarships is Nov. 30. For applications and infonnation, contact the office of financial aid at 5563043.

Metro's Financial Aid Office could still be playing a game of catch-up on some recent federal regulations that require student loan counseling in efforts to decrease the national student loan default problem. · in August 1989, the MSCD Financial Aid Office, in compliance with the Default Initiative program, was to begin conducting student counseling with firsttime borrowers of Stafford Loans and Supplemental Loans for Students. Financial aid is also required to conduct exit interviews to review loan repayment obligations with the student borrower. During the fall semester 1989, a week after those regulations went into effect, irate students were at in the financial aid office with award letters in hand, saying they needed money "now." "We had to tell the Colorado Student Loan Program that there

The CSLP is a state agency that acts as a guaranty agency to lenders of student loans. Its job is also to assure that loans are being processed according to regulations. Judson said she did guarantee CSLP that the interviews would be conducted with the approximately 800 students necessary before the end of that fall semester. She also said that those borrowers were tracked down and interviewed. And again last week, a CSLP program officer was investigating MSCD's Financial Aid Office for compliance with those U.S. Department of Education regulations. The Metropolitan contacted the CSLP and requested information relating to the program review. "Metro is being cited for not doing those two activities (entrance and exit interviews) correctly," said Carman Piekenbrock, CSLP's manager of Compliance, Training

and Investigation. Piekenbrock said she didn't think the program ·officer found any "blatant disregard at all levels." But she thought that the financial aid office may have failed to do it "uniformly," with "all students at all levels." Although a written report had not been started by Sept. 10, Piekenbrock would not comment any further on the findings. Judson said she didn 't document all the CSLP officer's verbal comments on the review because

she thought he'd have a copy of the report to her before the end of this week_ The CSLP officer, Dan Rogers, said Sept. 12 that the report was on its way to final signature within the agency. He said that CSLP could release inforination regarding any findings after Metro's Financial Aid Office had the opportunity to respond to CSLP recommendations. They have until Nov. 15th of this year to do so. 0

Metropolitan office window broken during spree Someone decided to enter The Metropolitan office this weekend and create a little news of their own. Sometime between 5:30 p.m. Sept. 7 and noon Sept. 9, the interior window of the newspaper's office was broken. The broken window, in room 156 of the Student Union, was discovered by Kate Lutrey, direc-

hief reaches out nd touches MSCD It seems there has been a rash of phone thefts on campus in the last week and a half. Sometime during the weekend of August 25, a telephone was stolen out of an office in the Central classroom. Secretary Susan Gregory reported the theft on the following Monday, August 27. There are no suspects or witnesses at this time. Then, the following weekend another phone was stolen out of the CoPirg office in the student center. Also reported missing was a blue answering machine and an am/fm cassette radio. There was no sign of forced entry. In both cases, the phones taken

tor of student publications. "There was a hole a little bigger than a fist right next to the doorknob," Lutrey said. Auraria Public Safety investigated the incident and, according to Sgt. James Ferguson, it's a "no suspect, no lead kind of deal." "If they wanted to get into The ~Met, they could have, unless they were scared off," Fer uson said.

Lutrey said that whoever broke the window may have come into the office. "There are some indications that someone was in the office," she said. Lutrey noticed that the front drawer of the office desk was slightly open and later discovered that $l.70 was missing from the

desk. Lutrey isn' t certain when the money disappeared or if it's related to the broken window. Two similar incident~ were reported over the weekend. An interior window and an exterior door were broken, both in the North Classroom Building. Ferguson said he doesn't know if the three incidents are related.O

facing a book shelf while he "measured" himself against her. According to reports to Auraria Public Safety, Holmes pressed his body against the woman 's. He then left the area. Holmes reappeared in the library on September 4. On this occasion he asked a female student for assistance in comparing her "height to his mother's." · A.P.S. officers VanDyke and Barela searched the area but were unable to locate Holmes. On this afternoon, the victim reported Holmes as wearing a dirty, yellow shirt, grey pants and sunglasses. James Alphonso Holmes is described as a black male, 30 y:_ars old, 185 lbs and 6'3" tall. One victim described him as wearing 1970's style clothing and having heavy body odor. Holmes has a previous arrest •

record on the Auraria campus from 1978 and 1983. His last contact with APS was in the South classroom in 1988. Sergeant Jim Ferguson, Pu~lic Information Officer at APS said he considers Holmes "to be dangerous-." If anyone sees the man described, please call APS at 5562222.

Warrant issued for susp~ct in library sex assault On a more serious note, Auraria Public Safety has issued an arrest warrant for James Alphonso Holmes. On the afternoon of Auguss 31, Holmes approached a woman outside the library. He then recontacted her inside and asked for help in measuring library shelves. The woman was asked to stand

Hurry up and weight room

Groundbreaking for new facility starts September 14th Dianne Fujiwara The Metropolitan If you've tried recently to get in a workout at MSCD's weight room, you already knowtheoperativewordhereisnot"weight," but "wait." Classes have been meeting in the weight room, so people have had to "squeeze in" as time became available, said Dick Feuerborn, director of campus recreation. But when the gymnasium expansion is completed next summer, the new weight room will not only be three times its present size, it will be open all day, Monday through Saturday, Feuerborn said. The new "fitness facility," as Feuerborn calls it, will be 18 feet wide by 120 feet long. It will have more weight machines than the present room, and will emphasize cardiovascular machines such as rowers and Stairmasters, he said. "We need to keep up with the times-we have less (equipment) than most high

schools," he said. The new facility sho~uld attract all students who are interested in fitness, not just athletes or weight lifters, Feuerborn said. "We want it to have a warmer atmosphere ... our existing facility is a 'blood and guts' facility," A lot of women are using the weight room, but Feuerborn admitted some students probably feel they need to be a "Charles Atlas" type before they would come into the gym. "We've probably missed out on timid people of both genders," he said. To use the new weight room, a student wilJ have to show a valid student ID card and be somewhat familiar with the equipment. Monitors will be available to help students use the machines, but not to teach, Feuerborn said. Ground breaking for the gym expansion is Friday, Sept.14. The new weight room will be open about 10 months after construction begins, according to Feuerborn, and will be on the second floor of the g:fm. o New weight room will alleviate current overcrowding.

'Advocate' audit raises questions of impropriety ~ 路路

Jill Radecki The Metropolitan The University of Colorado at Denver newspaper, "The Advocate," is being audited. The audit is routine according to Gwendolyn Hill, the interim director of Student Life at CU-D. "It's not cause for panic," she said. Kevin Amsberry, last year's editor of "The Advocate," has also said the audit is routine. "From what I understand, it's kind of a common thing, so it's no big deal." According to Amsberry, the most important reason the audit is being performed is because Hill is new in the position of director of Student Life, having replaced Bruce Williams who resigned last spring. The audit will also help set standards for the following year as far as what to expect from the paper, it's needs, and some finetuning policies regarding staff and expenditures, Amsberry said. "It's not really like 'Oh, somebody's been a bad boy, let's get them,'" he said. Amsberry also said the audit was being done because of the amount of money rolled over from last year's budget. Although unsureoftheexact amountof money, Amsberry said, "I know we had money left over and it was in the thousands."

During his year as editor of "The Advocate," Amsberry had several public relations disasters. Last December, Amsberry was arrested for interference, third-degree assault and resisting arrest after an incident on the Auraria Campus. Auraria Public Safety learned from the Denver Police Department that Amsberry also had outstanding warrants in Denver and Arapahoe counties for driving under suspension and with no proof of insurance. Amsberry said both charges were dropped and by Oct. I will be cleared from his record. Afterthe incident, Amsberry published a letter to the editor in ''The Advocate," in the Jan. 16 issue. In the letter, he berated Auraria Public Safety. The letter was signed "a registered CU-D student, _n ame withheld upon request." Amsberry later admitted, in an editorial in the Jan. 30 edition, to writing the letter. He said he wrote the letter and left it unsigned because he wanted to make his point, but said he did not feel it was ethical to include his name with the letter. An institutional sanction was issued for Amsberry by CU-D administration, according to Sgt. Jirn Ferguson of Auraria Public Safety. A sanction is a letter of advisement the school files against a student for unacceptable conduct according to university policy. The issuance of institutional sanctions is

sporadic on campus, according to Ferguson. He said he may get several at once and then none at all for a while. Amsberry said the sanction resulted from an argument with a member of Williams' staff over the opening of Amsberry's mail. Relations between Amsberry and the CUD student government were strained during his tenure. Mark Johnson, last year's CU-D student body president, and Amsberry were not on good terms, although, according to Amsberry, it was because of the editor' s job and not anything personal.

'I'm surprised and I'm appalled and I'm thoroughly shocked that this story may go to print.' One problem Johnson had with Amsberry was a trip Amsberry took to New Orleans last November for a newspaper convention. According to Johnson, Amsberry bought airline tickets for the trip and then told Bruce Williams he bad lost the tickets. Amsberry was unable to provide receipts for the original or duplicate tickets, Johnson said. Amsberry said the reporter who accompanied him had lost his ticket and had to

pay a $50 replacement fee for the new ticket. Amsberry said he did provide the receipt for the replacement fee and gave it to Bruce Williams. Cathy VanSchwartz, former staff photographer for "The Advocate," and current photo editor for The Metropolitan, is the center of another dispute. Amsberry said there was some disagreement over the ways VanSchwartz was paid: per photo, story and hourly for layout work. VanSchwartz agreed the variety of ways in which she was paid was a cause of confusion. Once a dispute arose when she painted a poster for an"Advocate"-sponsored event. Amsberry had agreed to pay her hourly, but later could not remember authorizing the time. "She didn't do anything wrong," he said. "It was just miscommunication." Render Wyatt, the current editor of ''The Advocate," threatened to call Auraria Public Safety when approached by a reporter and later threatened the editor with picketing The Me'tropolitan if the investigation into the audit was not aborted. He refused to comment on any circumstances surrounding the audit. "I'm surprised and I'm appalled and I'm thoroughly shocked that this story may go to print," Wyatt said. o

Auraria students asked to join the club Joel Lamoreaux The Metropolitan

Students from all three Auraria schools took advantage of the free music, food and sunshine to check out many of the campus clubs represented at Club Recruitment Day on the Student Union Plaza, Wednesday, Sept. 12. The event brought together Auraria clubs interested in promoting what their organization is all about and what they have to offer. " I think it' s a good idea to have all the clubs in one place, so students can decide on which clubs to join." said Tracey Curtin, a senior at CU-D. Curtin, a member of the Feminist Alliance, was taking advantage of the event to get the word out about her club; which is in its first year. Many students.milled around from table to table, picking up pamphlets, talking with club representatives and listening to music preformed by "Leslie Drayton and Fun," a Denver-based jazz band. ''The band is a great idea," said Dave Walther, a senior at CU-D. "The music brings people out to find out what it's all about," he said.

Joe Navarro, a member of this club for the last four years, said he feels that most people have the wrong idea about Chicano clubs, and don't realize they can be multicultural, and not exclusively Chicano. "I think there are some cultural barriers for many people, and we are trying to extend our hands past those barriers," he said. Navarro said that, for instance, the club was planning a retreat for later this month, and that the club would be inviting students of all nationalities to participate. Navarro, who has been involved with the event for the last several years, couldn' t remembera biggerturnoutforClubRecruitment Day. Some participants, like MSCD sophomore Nancy Cyrus of Circle K International, were not only able to recruit members for their own club, but could link up with other clubs with similar interests to talk of future collaboration between groups.

The event was sponsored by Campus Recreation Sports, the Student Activities departments of Metro and the Community College of Denver, and the University of Colorado at Denver office of Student Life.

Prof recommends unification for U.S. Tammy Pacheco The Metropolitan

The 50 states need to pull together and look at the European economic community, according to Jett Conner. Conner, professor of political science at MSCD, gave a lecture at St. Francis Interfaith Center Sept. 10, and he focused on Europe as a model for the United States. Conner said that by 1992 travel and trade barriers will not excist among the involved European states. He said that the United States needs to work as one, and. not as 50 individual states. According to Conner, teacher certifica-

tion and branch banking are two weak points of America' s system. "The comparison o{ the two (Europe and the United States) was very interesting, and he gave good suggestions," said Joan Foster, associate dean of Le'tters, Arts, and Sciences. "He brought up some good points, but a lot of what he said was very surface stuff," said MSCD senior Ed Y annett. Conner was the first speaker in a fourpart lecture series co-sponsored by the School of Letters, Arts and Sciences and the Institute of Intercultural Studies and Services. According to Larry Johnson, dean of Letters, Arts and Sciences, there are a lot of knowledgeable faculty at MSCD and they should have the chance to share what they know with the rest of the school.

"Our world is changing- literally from one day to the next- and we all need to gain as much insight and knowledge as possible about the global community if we are going to keep up as history is being made," Johnson said. Akbarali Thobhani, organizer of the series, will be speaking on Islam and the West Oct. 8. The lectures will be held every second Monday throughout December. The unification of Germany will be the topic Nov. 12. The speaker will be Gudrun Clay. Alain Ranwez will be speaking on French Politics and Jean Paul Sartre: An Intellectual's Vision Dec. 10/ The lecture series is free and open to the public. Students are encouraged to attend by Johnson . 0

The plywood sheets that cover the windows of one of the most beautiful buildings on campus will soon be replaced. Last July's severe hail storm shattered several of the stained-glass windows that once adorned S. Cajetan's Church. St. Cajetan' s is insured with American International Adjustment Company. The policy will cover damage done to the stained glass, which will cost aboµt $10,000 to repair, according to Jim Kelley of the Auraria Physical Plant. "The frames that hold the glass will not be paid for by the insurance. The frames were already old and rotten and will probably cost approximately $20,000to replace," Kelley said. The state will pay for the replacement of the frames, because St. Cajetan's is on a historic site. St. Cajetan's was built in 1926 and was the city ' s first Roman Catholic church for the Spanish-speaking community. Being a historical landmark, preserving the original structure of the church is important. An

St. Cajetan ' sis no longerused as a church. Auraria administrators use the church as an auditorium. The altar was replaced with a wooden stage and folding chairs are now used instead of pews. The auditorium seats 450-600 people. The basement of the church consists of offices for the psychology department of CU-D. Within the next couple of weeks, a contractor will be hired to fix the windows. "We hope to have the windows replaced before the snow flies, but it is a slow process when dealing with insurance companies," Kelley Cl said.

It's a long journey from a small country printing shop to the publisher's posh fifthfloor office at the top of the "Rocky Mountain News," but Larry Strutton, 49, made the trip in short order. On Aug. I, Strutton, a 1971 MSCD graduate, was appointed publisher, chief executive officer and president of Denver's largest daily newspaper. At first glance, his career looks like a Cinderella story, but there were no fairy godmothers along the way, j ust a lot of hard work, determination with some good fortune thrown in. "I grew up in the country around Colorado Springs," Strutton said. "We had a neighbor who had an old print shop in his barn. Well, he'd pay us to chase his cows for him after school, then I'd go into the print shop and mess around." Now Strutton looks the urbane gentleman in a dark suit, crisp white shirt and silk tie, and it's hard to picture him chasing cows until he grins. It's an engaging look that starts with crinkles around his eyes and becomes a smile as wide as a country mile while he talks about those early days. But Strutton grew up and forsook the cows and country for a job as a printer at the "Colorado Springs Gazette Telegraph" in 1957 when he was a senior in high school. In 1964, he started at the "News" as a Linotype machinist, and it wasn' t long before he enrolled at MSCD . " I went to Metro with the idea of becoming a production manager," Strutton said, sinking back into the sofa in his office. Like many contemporary MSCD students, Strutton was married and a young parent when he began pursuing hi& degree.

'I was fortunate because I had a lot of people here at the News who were willing to take achance on a young person.'

"My first two years I worked four to midnight and during my sophomore year my second child, our daughter, was born," Strutton said matter-of-factly. "Then I worked eight atnight until five in the morning during my junior and senior years." he added. While still in school, he was promoted to assistant production manager. He graduated with a major in business management and a minor in computer science. "I was fortunate because I had a lot of people here at the "News" who were willing to take a chance on a young person," Strutton said. William W. Fletcher, his former boss and current chairman of the board at the "News" remembers things differently. "When I made Larry production manager back in the 1970s, I told him I was

going to pile it on until he yelled 'uncle,"' Fletc~er said. "But he never did yell 'uncle.' He was an individual who always wanted to do more and always wanted to do better." Strutton continued to produce for the "News" during a 17-year stint at the paper. He left the "News" in 198 1 to join the "Detroit Free Press," and two years later was hired by the Los Angeles Times as vice president of operations. Strutton moved to the Baltimore Sun Co. as president in 1989. "I figured when I went to the Baltimore Sun that that was where I'd retire," Strutton said. But the E.W. Scripps Co. changed his plans by wooing the Colorado native back to the "Rocky Mountain News." "When I was at the "News" originally, I was hoping someday to be the general manager," Strutton said. But his friend and mentor Fletcher was doing a solid job as manager, and Strutton realized his aspirations would be better met at a different paper. But now Strutton's dream to head the "News" is finally being fulfilled. Fletcher said he will retire without regrets from the "News" when he turns 65, three years from now. But until that ti11;1e, he will do whatever he can to smooth Strutton's transition into the role of publisher.

Larry D. Strutton

Fletcher sees Strutton 's greatest shortterm challenge to be the installation of $100 million worth of Goss Colorliner offset presses that will be phased in beginning a year from now. Installation of the presses will continue throughout 1992. The new presses are expected to print 75,000 papers an hour and will give the "News" full -color print on 48 pages. "When I was asked by Scripps Howard to come back here," Strutton said, "they told me they were committed to being the surviving paper in Denver. They volunteered whatever tools were necessary, including the presses. But they said that that would be my decision." The package of Strutton plus the new presses is seen as a very positive move by most "Rocky Mountain News" staffers, according to one employee. "This move is

designed to put the ' Rocky' over the hump and to kill off the 'Post, '"the employee said. Strutton doesn't deny the possibility of "The Denver Post's" demise as he steps into the newly created role of publisher at the "News." But one of Strutton' s racquetball cronies from the 1970s, "The Denver Post" attorney Carl Eiberger, believes the claims of the " Post's" imminent death are greatly exaggerated. "Larry Strutton is a very, very competent guy," Eiberger said. " But you've got two viable papers here, and l think the "Post" is here to stay. They have the finest presses and have lots of expansion room at their facilities." Eiberger firmly believes Denver will remain a two-paper town, but quipped, "Certainly, the "News" could leave."

'I've been in the news business ·since 1957, and I truly love it.'

As the newspaper war heats up,..Strutton will use his position as publisher to coordinate all departments at the "News" including the editorial, advertising and business sides. Though Strutton admits some changes at the "News" are in the offing, he pledges not to interfere with the editorial content. "I've been in the news business since 1957, and I truly love it," Strutton said. " I have an appreciation for a newspaper's responsibility to the community, and I think they 'll find me as great a protector of the First Amendment as any editor." Strutton's positive image in the community and in business remains untarnished, and in 1987 he was honored by MSCD with the Distinguished Alumni Award. He is quick to point out the spotlighted plaque on his office wall. "You know, I thought Metro was greatly under-rated when I went there," he said, gesturing toward the large window in his office that frames a view of the Auraria Campus and the mountains beyond. "A year ago last fall , I spent three months at Harvard and there were teachers on the Metro staff who were every bit as good as the people teaching at Harvard," Strutton said. "Dr. Duckworth was my adviser at Metro. I've not had a professor who was any better than she was." ·Strutton credits fine professors at Metro for helping him attain his goals, but his own inner drive and determination are apparent in his unwavering gaze and steady speech. But for a minute, a youthful grin cracks Strutton's disciplined exterior. He shakes his head almost as if he's still a small-town boy who can't quite believe he's ended up in _this office. "I have had quite a romance with the news industry,!' he said. "I look forward to the challenges ahead." 0 J

Layover travelers to get lift from holiday series Laura Anderson The Metropolitan

During the 1990 holiday season, travelers passing through Stapleton International Airport are in for a new experience. This year, between their arrival and departure times, it's show time. The Denver Commission on Cultural Affairs will sponsor a holiday performance series at Stapleton that will run from Thanksgiving to Christmas. The show format will feature a lineup of individual and group acts performing backto-back before the throng ofholiday travelers. "We thought that it would make airport travelers' layovers more pleasant," said Barbara Arguello, vice president of the Denver Musician's Association and committee chair for the series. Along with entertaining the travel-weary, the series will provide an opportunity to showcase Denver-area performers, Arguello said. The commission is accepting applications from Denver performing artists working in the areas of music, dance, theate; and variety. Examples ofthe variety acts Arguello would like to see are pantomime and air jazz. She encourages novice as well as pro-

fessional performers to apply. According to Greg Geissler, director of the Commission on Cultural Affairs, "It will take a special performer to be able to deal with a lot of noise and distraction. They must be able to work in a small space and can not impede traffic."

'Performers would be fairly compensated for their work. We don't want people to work for nothing.' As with many first-time events, specific details have yet to be worked out with the holiday series, such as the specific times and locations in the airport for the acts, Arguello said. The overall goal is to stage performances in high-traffic areas during peak hours to reach the highest number of people. Arguello said that, since the shows are nontraditional in arrangement, performers' acts need to be flexible in order to accommodate the limited technical facilities and changing performance sites. Although precise amounts were not disclosed, Arguello said, "Performers would

be fairly compensated for their work. We don't want people to work for nothing." She added that a $15,000 budget had been allocated for the series. The commission began accepting submissions at the end of August. So far, according to Geissler, they have not received many applications. He said that in general, people wait until the last minute to apply, but he expects a large turnout. After all, who can resist the call to show time? Denver performers interested in the Holiday Performance Series must submit an application to: The Stapleton Performance Series, Commission of Cultural Affairs, Suite 1600, 303 West Colfax Ave., Denver, CO, 80204. Applications must be received by the commission by 5 p.m., Friday, Sept. 28, 1990. In addition, tho~e interested must submit a letter of interest detailing professional experience and any experience they have had in non-traditional performance situations. The letter should also include technical requirements, time-availability, and the fee charged per performance. Applicants are required to submit ei~her an audio cassette tape or video cassette tape (1/2 inch only) queued for three minutes 0 total viewing or listening time.

0PJED Single no more:

An adventure into the world of match making Dave Plank I wandered into my Ritchen to get a Diet Pepsi late one recent night, not really because I was thirsty, but because I wanted to escape the taunting, blinding brightness of an empty Macintosh screen where this week's column was supposed to be. Near the fridge, sitting on the table next to my threemonths overdue phone bill, was an envelope addressed to "Single Person" at my address. Golly, I thought, Single Person sure is gonna be pissed when he finds out they're sending his mail to me. Then I realized that this was one of those dating service enrollment forms, arriving by post just in time to save me from what must surely be a hellishly lonely existence. Aha! I thought. This week's column is as good as written. Come join me now, won't you, as we open the envelope (that contalns my new life) together? First, the outside. The return address is 4100 E. Mississippi Ave ., Suite 105 in Denver. In the lower left corner, printed in cheery pastel blue ink, is this message: "Yes ... you can buy happiness!" Yup. And I'll bet you 're about to tell me where to shop, aren't you? Inside, we find a cover letter with a "Confidential

Compatibility Evaluation Guide" printed on the back. The letter details the explosive growth of TOGETHER, Inc. from humble beginnings in 1974 to its current position as ''the world's largest network of single people" with offices in cosmopolitan urban singles paradises such as Nashua, New Hampshire and Greensboro, North Carolina. The letter invites us to fill out the questionnaire on the back (making sure we complete the bottom section, which asks us for our phone number and the best time to reach us at home), and return it. "Remember," it says. "You could be meeting your first match just 1O days after enrollment!" Okay. The back asks us to check boxes路 that indicate we "Strongly Agree, Agree, Uncertain (?) , Disagree or Strongly Disagree" with statements such as these: 1. Vulgar language is embarrassing- Agree. Absolutely. 2. I find cultural arts (symphonies, opera, museums, etc.) boring-Strongly agree. I mean really boring. Too bad there isn't room to elaborate. 3. If a law doesn't make sense, it's OK to break it as long as you act responsibly-God, yes! Even if you don't act responsibly! There are some others, but we need to move on to the next section, the "Tell Us About Yourself" section.

What is your educational background? We'll check the box that says "some college." What kind of work do you do? Fill in the blank, let's say ... "Currently working part-time, but someday hope to head the American Nazi Party." What are your dating goals? There's no box that says "sleazy one-night stand," so let's check "casual dating." Now on to the next (and really important) section, "Tell Us About The Person You Would Like To Meet." What age range is best for you? We'll put "from eight years to 14 years." Don't worry. It's a joke. What height Is best for you? Well, the age range sort of limits us here, so we'll write "four to five feet." Under weight we'll put "200-300 pounds." What interests would you like to share? This is a toughie. Just for kicks, we'll put "Domination and submissiveness," "stealing old ladies' pension checks" and "shooting cats with BB guns." Now, the questionnaire says we have to fill out the Important Bottom Section, "to see fastest results." Fair enough. We'll fill that out right now, except for the name. Hmmm. D-A-N H-O-L-0-E-N. There. All done. Good luck, Dan. Don't forget to invite me to the wedding. O

EDITORIAL Kick the petroleum habit, America We're all junkies. I'm not talking about making a Love Canal of your nostrils, or the ritual of the syringe. I'm talking about petroleum addiction. Did you notice on the way to school today how many one-to-a-car wonders there were? They were like so many cholesterols in their Euro-Jappo buffu mobiles clogging the asphalt arterials, weren't they? Did you notice that you were one of them? The world is right now being Saddam-ized, to the point where the Bush man (between holes 13 and 14) deemed it necessary to sub-divide a decidedly unattractive little slice of desert and populate it with some incredibly unimaginative dressers. Rememberthe oil embargo of 1973? If you do, then you know that the last 17 years have been a process of slowly, inexorably bending over and grabbing our collective ankles. Saddamization should not come as such a shock. What would come as a shock would be the U.S. extricating itself from this mess without a bloodbath, keeping the per-gallon price if gasoline below $2 andthen blindly and blissfully continuing to build IROCs and 4x4s. Denver's a microcosm of the national stupidity. We have in the past (c'mon, a lot of you were of voting age) defeated mass transit legislation. The last one didn't even make it out of the legislature. Then we developed this city like Roseanne with a box of Ritz and a wad of cream cheese, slathering on suburbs with wild abandon. And now, all you people living in the Thorntonian and Aurorian hinterlands make your petroleum-addicted pilgramages down to Auraria each day and bitch because there's nowhere to park. News flash: OPEC did some serious foreshadowing in the early 70s. This is not new stuff. Back then, we reduced the speed limit to 55 mph, mothballed the V-8s, turnedbackthethermostat, turned down the AC, subsidized solar and topk a hard look at a neglected rail system. Now it's stomp on the foot feed, bust out the gashogs, crank up the ~nditioner, r:!P off those silly

looking panels and load all our goodies in 18-wheelers. Ain't that America? And ain't that stupid? Now, Gorgeous George wants to relocate a town the size of Colorado Springs to within nerve-nasties distance of Saddam (Hussein) 'Oat? and his merry band of would-be Assyrians. Wait a minute, Georgie. Slow down a minute. I'll ride my bike. I'll take the bus. The solution being offered (a pre-World Series invasion party) is so very temporary. The party ends when, like that last straw-full of Slurpee, we bleed this rag of a planet dry of its final drop of fossilized reptiles. The Washington fossils want us to fight for Saudi fossils. Makes sense, doesn't it? About as much sense as all the gas we burned getting the troops over there, and all the gas we're letting them burn while they play Rat Patrol. But we're not there for petroleum purposes, you say? Oh, yeah, right. I almost forgot. We're there to prop up a monarchy (is it a coincidence our current king's name is George?) and to beat back the Hitlerlike aggression of Hussein. The fact is, though, the only reason Hussein is in any position to rattle a little sabre is because we're junkies. You need your turbo and you want your 2.3 kids to each have a VCR and a phone in their rooms. Yes, plastic is a petroleum byproduct and your houses and our landfills are full of it. We made Saddam rich and now we want to take away the keys to his tank and send him back tb his room. Won't work. This generation of Americans hasn't known a significant conflict in its lifetime and (rightfully so) doesn't have the stomach for war. If George of the Jungle wants to polarize the people with an economically convenient conflagration to camoflauge the wretched state of domestic affairs, then let him do it without popular support - at least from college students. This paper was recently criticized by a "we tried" '60s reject - who, by the way, drives a BMW- for

..

,_

being a campus PR rag and for running Marine Corp. "baby killers" ads. The response, of course, was that if there's one thing his generation taught our generation, it's that we should sell out and grab the green. Many of his ilk are now harumphing with impunity in the board rooms of Ford and Mobil. Another thing we've learned from the Aquarius (as in trickle-down) generation is that if things get too sticky with that silly little selective services thing that Jimmy Carter reinstated (you know, the one you finally had to break down and register for to get into this school) then we're all pretty capable of becoming Montreal Expos fans. Finally, if we get out of this thing, by some miracle, and fail to enterthe industrial/transportation rehabilitation center for confirmed petro-junkies, then we deserve to be Saddamized somewhere in our near future.

LETTERS Editor, media practices New policy insufficient Alum has heard enough Editor, spark criticism fromKleg The MSCD Student Advocacy Organization apEditor,

I was shocked at the ugly meanness of the editorial by T. Lenway'sattackon Israel. But isn 'tthatsta~dard practice for the American media?! That and the ignorance shown by ignoring the fact that two weeks before that same subject of debt write-off had already been broached by the American administration and·not by Israel. -Why doesn't she turn some of that vindictive bigotry on Saudi Arabia for their cultural, political and religious fascism : Letters sent to A[Tlerican soldiers carrying a stamp with a flag will be returned to sender; no packages containing pork or alcohol will b~ allowed in the country; no infidel religious symbols will be _allow~d ~o offend the faithful ; and finally no pornography, which 1s defined as women with bare arms or legs.?! That kind of shooting from the hip is not mature editorializing. Michael LaTorra MSCD student

plauds the administration for adopting a p~licy allowing members of minority faiths the opportunity to make up work missed due to legitimate religious ob~ervance~. We urge the administrationm to take their efforts in revising the Affirmative Action Plan a step further. Currently the plan requires students to ~eport. act~ of discrimination within 30 days. Under this policy, 1f a student waits until the end of a semester to report acts of discrimination in order to avoid retribution , the claims become invalid. We urge the administration to change the time limit to allow students to complete a course before being obligated to enter into a conflict with a professor. This would allow students to report discrimination without the fear of retribution. Furthermore, it would make professors who, in the past may have been able. to escape charges due to limited reporting time think twice about the results of their actions if they know they may be held accountable for their actions. Joel Kleg SOA president Andy Vander Horst SOA co-president Amy Montoya SOA secretary

History repeated in Mid Eas~ aggression Ball dropped in hiring Editor, new coach

'We stand now as we have always stood, against aggression." The words of George Bush, in true Orwellian fashion, portray the U.S. involvement in the Middle East as a moral crusade in which the U.S. is once again defending peace, freedom, justice, etc .. . The current jingoisms have many frightening similarities to that of the Vietnam era. For over two decades (1949-1975) the United States tried to subjugate Vietnam by force and subversion all in the name of freedom. In the process, the U.S. violated the U.N. Charter, the Geneva Accords of 1954, the Nuremberg Code, the Geneva Protocol of 1925 and finally the Paris Agreement of 1973. . To portray the United States as always standing against aggression, as Bush has, is to ignore the history of U.S. interventionism. Since 1798, the U.S. has used armed forces abroad over 250 times, not always against aggression but rather as the aggressor, fighting against freedom, not on the side of it: For example, in 1954, on the behalf of the United Fruit Company, the government of Guatemala was overthrown by a CIA backed coup, allowing military and parliamentary regimes, complete with political oppression and death squads, to rule instead. Was the U.S. standing against aggression when, in Nicaragua from 1926 to 1933, the U.S. Marines fought a counterinsurgency operation that led to the takeover by the Somoza family, which ruled Nicaragua as its private fiefdom for 46 years. The U.S. has preserved non-freedom from the threat of freedom as in the Dominican Republic in 1965, the subversion of democracy in Brazil in 1964 and Chile in 1973, setting up instead death squad client states. While Bush condemns Iraq's occupation of Kuwait, Israel's continuing occupation of the West Bank, Gaza, Southern Lebanon and the Golan Heights goes unchallenged. Bush's rhetoric about'.'standing against aggression" is merely a patriotic smokescreen used to hide the facts behind his eagerness to "send in the troops." Thomas C. Mestnik MSCD student

Editor,

Summer is over and it's back to school. It's time to hit the books. But what kind of back to school would it be without another "Kleg controversy. " That's right, you guessed it, Joel Kleg is at it a~ain. This time .the good, upstanding Mr. Kleg has reg1stere? c~n:ipl~ints with the Anti-defamation League that his CIVIi rights have been violated. His accusations of religious discrimination stems from a professor's policy of not accepting late work. Mr. Kleg was not allowed to ma~e up work he missed while attending Passover Seder in . . April. I'm not writing this letter to take sides on an issue or to heighten people's awareness of a great evil. I just find it nauseatingly ironic that Mr. Kleg has the nerve to press the issue to the wall when the shoe is on the other foot. Let me remind you this is the same Joel Kleg who publicly stated words to the effect that blacks don't make good police officers because they can be seen too easily at night when they smile. This is the same Joel Kleg who publicly referred to homosexuals as "an abomination before God." This is the same Joel Kleg who has offended just about every minority group on campus. I don't want to get tangled up in yet another "Kleg controversy," I have more important trivialities to deal with. I just want to say those four words that everyone on campus has been wanting to hear for the last two years-JOEL KLEG, SHUT UP! James Moya MSCD Alumnus

Editor, The search was legitimate. The search was legal. According to one member of the search committee, they made the best choice possible under les~ tha.n ideal circumstances. In a few days, Mr. Daryl Smith will assume the duties of head coach of the women's basketball team. He will lead our fledgling team into the promising decade of the nineties. His record for wins is good and he is qualified. From all appearances, we are once again on our way. But before we join the fans in the stands and cheer our team to victory, take just a moment to consider. Consider that Metropolitan State College of Denver missed an opportunity. Takeamomenttobeconcerned. Take a moment to raise your level of awareness. In this day and age of "enlightenment," is it too much to expect that a woman be hired to coach the women's basketball team? We have missed an opportunity to provide a role model for an impressionable group of young wom~n . We have missed the opportunity to add a female voice to the dominant male voice in the athletic department. We have missed an opportunity to demonstrate our commitment to diversity. We have missed an opportunity to acknowledge that more than half of the students at Metropolitan State College of Denver are women. Perhaps most importantly we have missed the opportunity to show our legislators and colleagues that we are progressive and ready to provide appropriate leadership in the college community. We are sorry and distressed that we were not able to find one qualified woman to coach our team. Women basketball players are not afforded the professional opportunities that are available to men in college. How about joining with us to encourage t~ose women who have a passion for the sport to continue their schooling and some day return to us and be that "Qualified Woman." Dr. Karen J.

PLAIN & FANCY BALL Event chair uses athletic energy to get Ball rolling M.K. Wagner The Metropolitan

Denver Attorney Elwyn F. Schaefer will chair the 1990 Plain and Fancy Ball highlighting the 25th anniversary of MSCD. Schaefer is founder of MSCD's Booster Club and a member of the executive committee of the MSCD Foundation Board of Directors. Named "Denver Athletic Club Athlete of the Year" in 1978, Schaefer is currently chairman of the Metro Sports committee, past finance chairman and special counsel for the Denver Organizing Committee of the Final Four and Western Regional Basketball Tournament, a director of the Denver Baseball Commission, and a member of the Advisory Board of the YWCA. Schaefer, a 1969 graduate of the University of Colorado Law School and an owner of a small law firm, Schaefer became interested in MSCD out of a desire to expand its intercollegiate athletic program. "I have to admit," Schaefer said, "it was purely athletic self-interest that caused me to become interested in MSCD six years

ago." Schaefer supports enhancement of the athletic program. He said that expanding the program would make MSCD more visible and give its students a better sense of identity. Schaefer has taken his interest in competitive athletics and put that kind of energy into efforts to promote the Plain & Fancy Ball. He said he is engaged in a significant publicity campaign, through the media and word of mouth, as chair of the Ball. He is impressed with the excitement and enthusiasm of those involved in this event. Although not an alumni, Schaefer takes pride in MSCD. "I can see what Metro has done and what it is capable of doing on both a state and local level." he said. While Schaefer believes athletics are important, he is also concerned with the academics of the college as well. "Education is the key for people to live together peacefully and to understand one another," Schaefer said. "It (education) forms a common ground and reduces the barrier; it causes people to start to realize the common areas that we all have." Schaefer stepped right up to the plate and took a swing at chairing the Ball's commit. tee, said Len Meyer, executive director of

Elwyn F. Schaefer,chair of the Plain & Fancy Ball development and MSCD Foundation, Inc. "He is providing great leadership," Meyer said. Meyer and Schaefer encourage students

to attend the Ball. Meyer said that the first 250 tickets sold to students will be $20, instead of the regular price of $40. Tickets can be purchased at the Student Union.

THEATRE •

'Day Room' leaves refreshing alternative to everyday reality "PASSION, PURPOSE ••• PULSE!" Melropo_litan Stale College of Denver students and alumni have a home for their best artistic efforts, and METROSPHERE is it. METROSPHERE is now accepting submissions in the following categories: POETRY: ANY LENGTH, ANY STYLE PROSE: BOTH FIUION AND NON-FIUION ESSAYS (There is no word limit, but it should be within the confines ofnormal short- or short-short story length.)

BLACK AND WHITE PHOTOGRAPHY LINE ORA WINGS COMPUTER GRAPHIC ART MANUAL GRAPHIC ART

Dennis C. Weidanz The Metropolitan As a refreshing alternative to a ho-hum date, college students owe it to themselves to try something a little different, like dinner and the theater. Real theater with real fleshand-bloodactors. A note of caution, however. Real theater may make you think. "The Day Room," a comedy by Don DeLillo, will make you think. The City Stage Ensemble is performing it in The Theatre at Jack's, 1553 Platte St. through Sept. 16. Directed by Joan Staniunas, best known for her directing talents with Hunger Artists Theatre Ensemble, this comedy explores dimensions of reality and non-reality in a humorous, but chilling way. What you think is going on probably isn't, and the characters aren't necessarily who they appear to be. It's left up to the viewer to decide. "The Day Room" is a play in two acts. Its nine players each change roles in the second act, to keep the viewer guessing about what is reality and what is an illusion. Superbly acted throughout, this play conjures up a gamut of emotions - laughter, sadness,

awe, pity and wonder. It is a credit to all nine actors' considerable talent to be able to make this difficult play work. If there was an award for best acting in "The Day Room," it would have to go to Ben Mendel in the first act, as Budge, the whitehaired hospital patient, and to Terry Burnsed in the second act as the Figure in a straightjacket. His personification of a television must be seen to be appreciated. Mary L. Adams as Nurse Walker/Lynette, and Ruthay as Nurse Baker/Jolene were both wonderful, keeping the audience W'.'lndering what was going on. Tom Hanna as Grass/Freddie added to the humor with his antics as a man blissfully crazy, but as it turns out, probably no crazier than the next guy. Honorable mentions must go to the rest of the cast for well-acted roles: Jon Mitchell as Dr. Phelps/Gary; Kevin Bartlett as Dr. Bazelon/Manville; Jamil Khera as the Male orderly/Desk clerk, and Jacquie White as the Female orderly/Maid. Thursday and Sunday shows are at 7 p.m., tickets are $8; Friday and Saturday shows are at 8 p.m., and tickets are $9. For reservations and information, call 433-8082. 0

ARTS Photography showing lends insight to ancient artwork Lori A. Fleming The Metropolitan Two photography shows at the Denver Art Museum exemplify the evolution of artists' tools. One displays ancient pictographs using rudimentary tools, and the other displays contemporary photos using television as one of its tools. "The Walls of Time: The Rock Art of Canyon de Chelly." opened Sept. I in the American Indian Art GalJeries and will run through March 3, 1991. These Anasazi pictographs were photographed in a remote area few people will ever have a chance to visit, so the show is a rare opportunity to see ancient Indian art work. Canyon de Chelly is on the Navajo reservation in northeastern Arizona. Photographer David DeHarport started photographing the rock art in 1947. Bill 0 'Connor, a Denver Art Museum photographer, joined DeHarport in 1984, working with him since then. Both men's work is displayed. Most of DeHarport' s photos were shot in black and white while O' Connor's .were shot in color. The Indians used what nature provided for their canyon drawings. The paints were made of animal or vegetable fat, ground minerals and vegetable colorings. The drawings show daily activities of the Indi-

They are only concerned that they don't have bare walls in their homes. A binder of the TV scenes used for the work is next to the gallery ' s entrance. Some of the framed pictures from the TV scenes can easily be matched to McCollum's large photos. The photos were shot in black and white. Some were done in sepia tones (brownish color) during the printing process, Silvey said. OnIy a few of the photos are recognizable shapes, but they all have a distinctive character.

The museum, at Broadway and 14th Avenue, is open Tuesday through Saturday from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Sunday from noon to 5 p.m. and closed Mondays and major holidays. The museum offers free admission on Saturdays. , The Denver Museum of Natural History sent a video team last year into the Canyon de Chelly with DeHarport and O 'Connor. Silvey said the program will air sometime this fall on public television. McColJum will lecture at the museum Oct. 4, at 7 p.m. For more information, call 640-2793. 0

Ruggerfest: a renowned rugby tradition in Aspen The Metropolitan

.......

...>

There's something very exciting and rugged to see in colorful Aspen this weekend, and it's called Ruggerfest. The Ruggerfest of Aspen is a renowned rugby tournament that starts Friday, Sept. 14 and ends Sunday, Sept. 16. Three MSCD Rugby Club players, Jeff Porter, Chris Arthur and Mike Harvey, will play on a Vail team that will compete against nationally and world-ranked teams during the three-day event. Dale Strode, sportswriter for the " Aspen Times," said there will be teams from California, Hawaii, Kansas, England and France playing in this year' s Ruggerfest. The national champion team from Denver, the Barbarians, will also be participating. Strode said the teams to watch will be the Old Mission Bay Athletic Club from San Diego, and the host team, The Gentleman of Aspen. Porter believes the Vail team will do well because of coaching. Porter said that a new style from Australia will help the team. The style, called "The Radwick," is being taught by Vail's coach, Geff Mould, who's from Australia. Porter said The Radwick positions the

instead of punting the ball on the run. According to Porter, rugby is the second largest sport in the world. He said the sport evolved out of soccer and that American football evolved out of Rugby.

After Ruggerfest, the MSCD rugby team will play the University of Northern Colorado Sept. 22, at noon. The game will be played at Polaski Park, located on Alameda three blocks west of Colorado Boulevard. Cl

S PORTS A view from the press box

Moe-town no more Dale Shrull Sports Editor

Last week, Doug Moe was unceremoniously dismissed by the Denver Nuggets. Since that time it seems that everyone has expressed an opinion about the fiasco. Most people have voiced their disapproval. At the press conference, Doug Moe announced his own firing. There wasn't an owner in sight. With three owners of the Denver Nuggets, you'd think that at least one could have made an appearance. However, it's mostly Robert Wussler's team, the majority owner, and he can do whatever he pleases. If we don't like it, he'll take his team and go home. Whether Doug Moe had gotten the most out of his stay with the Nuggets or not, no one will ever know. During his coaching days in Denver, Moe's accomplishments were numerous. Using the most renowned passing games in NBA history, Moe got the most out of his teams. Usually at a talent level below most other teams, the Nuggets would consistently make the play-offs. At times they ·contended for the Westem Conference title. After the 1987-88 season Doug Moe was named Coach of the Year in the NBA. In Moe's true fashion, he joked about winning the award. Now Moe is gone and Paul Westhead is cruising into town from Los Angeles and Loyola Marymount University where his teams broke every collegiate scoring record known to mankind. Who will ever forget the great run they made during last year's NCAA tournament. With the tragedy of Hank Gathers and the scoring barrages of Bo Kimble, his team was the talk of the country. Westhead will now bring his version of the running game to the professional ranks. Personally, I doubt that a high-scoring, fast-paced team can win a World Championship. Not for a while, anyway. In sports things change, maybe in the late 90s or beyond, the final game of the championship will be 167-165. I'll believe it when, and if, I see it. All things considered, the choice of

Westhead is a good one. In the NBA, as in most team sports, championships are won with defense. Never has that been more evident than in the past two years with the Detroit Pistons' suffocating defense racking up World Championships. Then why is the choice of Paul Westhead and his high scoring philosophy good? There are two goals in the NBA - to win, preferably a championship, and to put people in the seats. Marketing is why Westhead is a good choice. Every since the trio of Wussier, Bertram Lee and Peter Bynoe took over the team, the buzz word has been marketing. When considering who they should draft out of college, the Nuggets seemed to be just as concerned with the players marketability than his talent. It dido 't matter ifhe could put the ball in the basket - instead, can he put people in the seats. With the trades that Moe orchestrated in the off-season, it led to the drafting of Chris Jackson. A high-scoring, quick-footed, bignarne player out of Louisiana State University that was extremely marketable. People will pay to watch this young man play, that's the key. Now with a stable full of young talented players, a new coach and a new high scoring system, marketing should be easy. I can hear the advertising campaign now: Paul Westhead is bringing his high-scoring, run-and-gun style to the Mile High city. Opponents won't have a chance! As Westhead and the Nuggets braintrust-oops, wrong word-begin to embark on a new era, whey hope to win some games, but they'll have to settle for hoping to put people in the seats. Yes, it will be high-scoring. Yes, the Nuggets will lose many games, if not most. Yes, the most over-worked person on the staff will be the scoreboard operator. Yes, the fans will probably enjoy the fast pace. But marketing isn't the true formula for a successful organization. Winning is. Fans want to see their team win. Will Westhead' s system win in the NBA? Stay tuned and

don't blink, you may miss some action. Doug Moe is now gone. Let's not forget what he accomplished. He won, unfortunately not a championship, but he won. He was a successful NBA coach. Moe is the 11th winningest coach of all-time. That's pretty darn successful. With the departure of Moe, the Nuggets have lost an entertainer. Like him or not, agree with his methods or not, Moe was an attraction. Doug Moe will be missed. For all his abilities, Moe had one that stood out. No matter bow the game turned out, Moe kept things in perspective. He never lets us forget, win or lose, basketball is just a game, nothing more, nothing less.a

Words of the week The power of the written and spoken word can always be enhanced by an increased vocabulary. As we all know, many words have more than one meaning. For sports fans, words often take on entirely new meanings: l. Inept: A picture of thy Denver Broncos offense will be placed in the next dictionary next to this word. A picture of the Los Angeles offense will be used for second usage. 2. Air sick: What happens when you watch the University of Colorado' s passing game. 3. Entomology: The study of insects. For example Pete Sampras squashing Andre Agassi like a bug. 4. Air head: Someone who believes in the Run and Shoot offense.

5. Child's Play: The U.S. Open Men's Final. 6. Wind tunnel: Where Paul Westhead gets his hair done. 7. Screen pass: A play that should NEVER be run inside your own 10-yardJine. 8. Patsy: What theNebraska Cornhuskers schedule is for early season games, come on guys play somebody. 9. Chemistry: Something the New York Mets know nothing about. 10. Absentee: One who habitually stays away, i.e. Nuggets owners Robert Wussier, Peter Bynoe and Bertram Lee. 11. Hurricane: Very little effect in the state of Utah. BYU 28 Miami 21. 12. Policy: i.e.· drug policy. NFL Commissioner Paul Tagliabue: please look up the definition of this word. 13. Refreshing: New winners of the U.S. Open, Gabriela Sabatini and Pete Sampras. 14. Conniption: John McEnroe' s middle name. 15. Nauseating: See inept. 16. Astronomical: Very large numbers, i.e. what you will see during next seasons Denver Nuggets games. 17. Thoughtlessness: Doug Moe's dismissal, see absentee. 18. Favorite: Ty Detmer for the Heisman, but it's a long season. 19. Kyrptonite: What should be used to neutralize Howie Long and Lawrence Taylor. 20. Bingo: To Channel 9' s Mike Nolan. You hit the nail on the head with your commentary about the Nuggets.

SPORTS BRIEFS Women's soccer team places 2nd The women's soccer team of MSCD traveled to the Show Me state of Missouri and showed that they could play soccer. Playing in the Northeast Missouri State University Invitational last weekend, the Roadrunners brought home 2nd place honors. The 'Runners defeated Quincy College (Illinois) 3-0 in the first-round game, with junior forward Bridgette Leisure leading the way. Leisure, Stephine Price, also a junior forward, and sophomore midfielder Sabina Ueblacker each scored goals for the 'Runners. Leisure now has six goals in the four games this season. In the championship game, the host school stymied the 'Runners offense and shut them out 2-0 to take the title. MSCD will be back on the field this weekend battling Regis College on the Auraria Athletic Field Saturday at I p.m. The 'Runners will then host Somona State (California) Sunday at I p.rn.

Men's soccer team dominating foes Jim Mack The Metropolitan The MSCD men's soccer team will look to improve their record to 3-0 Sept. 15 after two impressive dominating victories last weekend. The Roadrunners trounced the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs 5-0 in the season opener and followed it up with a 4-1 upset victory over the Colorado Athletic Conference pre-season favorite, the University of Denver. The win against DU was only the second MSCD victory against the Pioneers in the last five years. Senior forward, Tim Yunger has been one of the keys to the 'Runners early season success. Yunger has registered two goals and one assist in each of the first two games. He leads the Roadrunners in scoring with 10 points. Freshman Adam Smith has also been a

force in the Roadrunners first two games. He has two goals and three assists and trails only Yunger in scoring. Five of the top seven scorers for MSCD are freshmen and they have gained the praise of Dennis Daly, the 'Runners head coach. ''Our freshmen are playing super right now," Daly "tJ said, "andthere'sno(player) S 0 better than Tim Yunger in ~ the league this season. He's :::o an animal.'
