lub ASU sweetens the Pena, CoPIRG push eek with cake, priz~s for student activism Joel Lamoreaux Clubs reporter

...

lub ASU started the week of Sept. 17 with a 4-by-6-foot chocolate cake, free t-shirts nd prizes. The event was held to promote services and facilities available in the uraria Student Union including the Student Activities/Life Center, the Student Health enter, the Auraria Book Center and Convenience Store, Professional Food anagement and tri路institutional student governments. Club ASU will close the wee~ ith a picnic on the plaza from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., featuring music by "Born Naked."

Recalling his own days as a student activist, Denver Mayor Frederico Pena called on Auraria students to become in- 路 volved in issues that are shaping their future. "I hope that by the year2000, all of you can look back and say ' We took a stand and made a difference,"' Pena told about 200 people at a student action meeting Sept.19. Pena was on campus to speak to those attending .the event sponsored by the Colorado Public Interest Research Group. "In the '60s, students first became involved and realized they had the power to make changes," he said. These students were very much involved in bringing issues such as free speech and the Vietnam conflict to the forefront of the public's attention, Pena said. These people can now look back and see that their involvement made a difference, he said. Pena was quick to point out the danger of any person feeling that their vote, or voice, isn 't significant. "That attitude allows government to continue their inaction and the policies that so many of us complain about," Pena said. "Change does not result from the government's actions, but from people's actions," he said. Pena said he is a long-time supporter of CoPIRG because of the group's history of involving -students in bringing about change. "CoPIRG has established a longstanding presence in the statehouse on issues that are very important to our state and country," he said. CoPIRG 's Auraria chair, Serena Heckler, opened the meeting by welcoming those in attendance and giving a brief introductio'n , featuring the group 's past accompl ishments and futu re goals. The group was involved with the passing of such legislation as the Safe Drinking Water Act and the New Car Lemon Law, Heckler said. Presently, they are working with legislators to pass the Clean Air Act and with companies to find non-toxic alternatives to materials being used that produce hazardous waste. Susan Lieberman, campus organizer for CoPlRG, said the event was a great success, drawing in many more people than the group had planned on.

Lieberman was glad to get the exposure, to let students know what CoPIRG is about, as the students will re-vote on whether or not to renew the group's funding through the waivable $3 fee students pay when they register for classes. "Anything that gets students excited about getting involved, it 's just one more step towards re-affirmation. Lieberman was also encouraged by the number of people who stayed after to become involved in CoPIRG's future plans. "I think it would have been better if more people stayed," she said. "But I understand that many people have classes and tight schedules." Ron Burt, a Metro student, said he attended the meeting because he had never heard Pena speak and wanted to see what he was all about. "It was a good pep-talk," he said of Pena's speech. "He still has compassion for the student and he does seem to care," he said. "I just don't know how much of it was rhetoric and how much was from the heart." Before Pena's speech, members of CoPIRG outlined the group's four major topics of concern for the Auraria Campus, including energy efficiency, hunger and homelessness, voter registration and recycling. Barb Ferrill of CoPIRG spoke about energy efficiency, saying that the results of the damage done to our atmosphere by energy consumption were more serious than most people believed. She said that energy conservation was a simple, effortless solution to help alleviate the problem. Steve Campana, media consultant for CoPIRG and a j unior at CU-D, said that see MAYOR page 7

Peace.Corps will launch its fall campaign at Auraria Campus Sept. 26. The Corps is seeking graduates, specifically those with degrees and/or skills in math, sciences, education, agriculture, industrial arts, health professions, etc., to fill more than 3,200 overs~as positions. Peace Corps information booth will be at the Auraria Student Union from 10 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. Brochures and applications will be available.

With money cut off from home, some Middle Eastern students have resorted to selling their furniture to make ends meet. Although relief is in sight for some Kuwaiti students, the situation remains bleak for other nationals and Iraqis. The freeze on assets following the Aug. 2 Iraqi invasion of Kuwait forced MSCD senior Abdulsalam Al-Abdulsalam, 24, of Kuwait, to sell his stereo last week. If his situation worsens he will also sell his couch and television, he said. Because of Al-Abdulsalam's student visa, which allows only studying in this country, he is not allowed to work in the United States. He can't borrow money from his friends because most of them are Kuwaitis in the same situation.

Financial help for some students may arrive in the mailbox this month. The Embassy of Kuwait in Washington, D.C., sent a letter late last month to colleges throughout the United States. The letter stated that the embassy would honor Kuwaiti students' tuition, plus provide them with health insurance coverage and monthly stipends for living expenses. "Based on that, we have permitted all Kuwaiti students to register for classes, and we will bill the Kuwaiti Embassy," said Antonio Esquibel, MSCD vice president for the Office of Student Affairs. The embassy plans to send students the stipend checks sometime this. month, said Skip Crownhart, director of AHEC's Office of International Programs. The amount was not specified in the letter. Students who are permanent residents of Kuwait but are not

citizens, including Jordanians, Pakistanis and a number of other nationals, were not mentioned in the embassy's letter, Crownhart said, even though their money also is tied up in Kuwait. She said her office has not received correspondence from the Iraqi Embassy regarding plans to help alleviate the financial difficulties of Iraqi students in need. "I have talked to community groups about support for the permanent residents of Kuwait and the Iraqi students," Crownhart said. "They are the ones who have not had any answers to their financial dilemmas." She said Middle Eastern students with any problems should go to the International Programs office in the Arts Building Room 177. Another problem some students are trying to cope with is the fear of not knowing the fate of their fami1ies who live_in occupied Kuwait. And some students are torn between the urge to go back home

and their commitment to remain in school. "I can't even think because of worrying about my family," AlAbdulsalam said. "My whole country is gone." The last communication he had with his parents was the day Kuwait was invaded. Recently, Al-Abdulsalam dropped his classes because he wanted to go home and try to help his family and country. But he is now considering registering again. "All these years my father has been paying," he said. "So, I'm thinking it would sort of pay back my father to finish my education and get my degree. I want to finish, but on the other hand, I want to go back home." About 19 Kuwaiti and 3 Iraqi students, Crownhart said, are currently registered at the three schools on Auraria Campus. She knows of at least two or three Kuwaiti students who have dropped out of school t9 go to Saudi Arabia and other countries to be closer to their families. 0

Chl8mydia thi:eatenS路coilege-age women Laura Anderson The Metropolitan Although AIDS continues to dominate headlines, thethreat of other sexually transmitted diseases has not diminished. The U.S. Center for Disease Control recently released a report stating that college-age women 25 years old and younger are at high risk for developing a sexuaJly transmitted disease caJled

chlamydia (cla-MID-ia). Chlamydia strikes 3-5 million people each year and is the number one cause of ectopic (tubal) pregnancy and infertility. Chlamydia is defined as a bacterial infection transmitted sexually through genital, oral or anal contact. In 70 percent of cases reported by women and 30 percent reported by men, there were no noticeable symptoms. Because of this lack of symp-

toms, the disease can be transmitted unknowingly, and may not be treated until it is in an advanced stage. In addition to the high risk group of college-age women, those who have had multiple sexual partners af!d women in their first trimester of pregnancy are also considered a high-risk group. Pregnant women are advised to be tested once during their first trimester of pregnancy and once again during their third trimester.

Anyone having abdominal pain or tenderness, gonorrhea and pelvic inflammatory disease, unusual genital discharge, exposure to sexually transmitted diseases, an infant who, at birth, had inclusion conjunctivitis (eye infection) or pneumonia, should see a doctor. "Everyone who is sexually active is susceptible to sexually transmitted diseases, butonlythose engaging in risky behavior become infected," according to a report by see CHLAMYDIA page 9

Hey guys, save me a seat A pair of vice grips were the tool of choice for an undynamic duo who allegedly attempted to steal an Auraria Public Safety bicycle outside of the Science Building. Shortly after 9 p.m. on Sept. 15, student monitor Susan Tomas reported the incident to APS. After an unsuccessful try at stealing the entire bicycle, the 12and 13-year-old boys apparently settled for just the seat. The two were apprehended at the intersection of Speer Boulevard and Lawrence Street. . \YtJ~t gav~ tbeyJJ. a)楼ayZ Well,

' Provocative questions about the Persian Gulf crisis spark-ed Jome, at tim~s. heated debate at the Sept 17 "Teach-in on the Gulf Crisis" at Auraria. • I An enthusiastic crowd of about 100 students, faculty and guest panelists participated in the in-depth discussion at the Student Union. The topic of the "teach-in" recent events in the Middle East. Another is scheduled to be held in October. Sponsored by the Political Science Association and the Institute for Intercultural Studies and Services, the event featured diverse speakers and la wide range of oftenconflicting ideas about the origins and possible solutions of the conflict. "This international conflict is nothing more than a dispute over power and money . . . a raw, unbridted power pursuit on both sides," said Karen Feste, professor at the University of Denver's graduate school of International Studies. "Any occupation ls bad, but the Kuwait government also failed to recognize, and be sensitive to, the needs of Iraq," said Hamzi Moghrabi, member of the Arab-American Community of Colorado and coordinator of . the Arab-American Anti-Discrimination Committee. Panelists from MSCD included Akbarali Thobhani, director of the Institute for Intercultural Studie~ and SeFvices, and · Robert Hazan and Nonnan Proviser of MSCD's political science department.

armed with statements and questions for the panelists. At times, the discussion provoked anger or clapping, sometimes charges and countercharges. Questions centered around the Israeli-Palestinian conflict as well as Iraq's occupation of Kuwait. . There were a few issues everyone appeared to agree on: l) The situation in the Middle East is extremely complex; 2) For a solution to be found, the Middle East must be considered as a unit; and 3) The crisis in the Persian Gulf is extremely dangerous. Hazan warned against students remaining uninformed about the crisis. "Students must be cautious of opinions and stereotyping, voiced or written, by those who do not understand the background or the facts aboutthe Middle East. It is important that students educate themselves about the origins of the conflict, and understand that war can, and must, be avoided," he said. Proviser emphasized that the histories of Kuwait and Iraq are not unique. Because of the era of imperialism by western powers, he said, there are many states around the world that have "artificial" boundaries. Proviser continued to say that the end of the Cold War will not mean the end of rivalries worldwide, and that Iraqi withdrawal from Kuwait will not mean an end to the problems in the Middle East. Feste said she believes that the emphasis on diagnosis and justification by both sides is not productive. Emotional e~ements played up by the press tend to escalate rather than defuse the conflict, she said, making it much more difficult to deal with practical solu-

'It is important that students educate themselves about the origins of the conflict, and understand that war can, and must, be avoided.'

Al-Khalidi stated that the message being sent to the third world is that the United States will act militarily if its interests are threatened. And he said that an outcome of the conflict will be that "the world will learn that the Middle East really is united, and we must deal with the Middle East as a unit. We cannot solve one problem and not deal with the others." He added that President Gorbachev might be the only one who can present a settlement proposal to Saddam Hussein. The "teach-in" was divided into two segments: a panel discussion occupying the first part and an open forum for the second part. Students lined up at two microphones

tions. Feste said she favors secret diplomacy aimed at face-saving rather than diplomatic negotiations being carried out via the news media. Moghrabi, an Arab-American who has lived in Palestine and Kuwait, expressed concern for the security of Kuwaiti citizens. "More so from the United States military build-up than from the Iraqi occupation of that country," he said. Moghrabi also emphasized that the Middle East must be looked at as a unit, because there are "unfinished conflicts and unfinished history between different interests in the Middle East." Amir said he believes there will be a diplomatic face-saving solution for the Gulf crisis, and agreed that the Middle East problems are interrelated. He said he believes Hussein miscalculated the response of the United States and the rest of the world. Thobhani cautioned that the practice of some of the American news media of stereotyping images of the Middle East is dangerous. "It is dangerous for us to believe that all Muslims are against international law just because Saddam Hussein has disregarded international Law." And although Hussein uses the word jihad (holy w,ar), Thobhani said, it is important to recognize that he is not the spokesman for the religion of Islam. "The, entire Arab: world must not be condemned-for the. actions of one," he said, " nor should they· be stereotyped as aggressive, war-mongering peoples." '

Apartment .rental rates rising, students may feel pinch Bryan Perry The Metropolitan

Apartment rental rates are rising in the metro area as a result of an unparalleled drop in vacancies. This could mean the end of rental rates that are below the national average. Lynda Stephans, head leasing counselor for Denver's Apartment Source, said that from June to August apartment owners enjoyed a 5% drop in vacancy rates. ''The influx of people has been incredible," she said. Stephans cited a number of reasons for the drop in vacancy rates, ranging from the improving Denver economy to the amount of foreclosures facing homeowners in the Denver area. The biggest reason is the number ofPe<>ple moving into town, she said. "AT&T, the Air Force, the airport, as well as the workers in town to repair hailstorm damage have brought hundreds of people into town all wanting apartments," Stephans said. These factors could spell the end of the low rental rates enjoyed by the Denver-area renter over the past five years. According to

the July 19 "Rocky Mountain News," the vacancy rate dropped to 9.4 percent in the . first quarter of 1990. It is the first time the rate has been below IO percent since 1985. Kay Collins of Apartment Finders International believes that, after the surge of rentals in late summer, the Metro area is about 98 percent leased, especially the newer properties. ''The suburban properties have been going very fast," Collins said. She added that Capitol Hill and other student-dominated areas are still a bargain but may not be for long. "Capitol Hill will follow the rest of the market," she said. Collins also believes that the market rates will not be fully adjusted until March of 1991. Carole Ader of Parkway Center, a complex near the Auraria Campus, said that rental rates fluctuate because of discounts or concessions. "Watch for allowances such as one free month rent or free heat to be lifted and the overall rate to increase as the market adjusts," Ader said. Another factor that may impact rental rates is the possibility of construction and mechanical labor shortages associated with the Denver International Airport. An influx of workers needed to fill those positions could further drive up apartm~nt prices. .0

Housing near campus, such as Parkway Center, may become less available and more expensive.

MAYOR from page 1

the group is currently working to conduct an energy audit for the Auraria Campus in order to make suggestions on how to conserve energy. CoPIRG member Elizabeth Hauptman said that the 9 ,500 to 11,000 homeless people currently in Colorado were more a result of a lack of political will rather than a lack of resources. She said that for change to come about, students needed to give time and effort at their level first. Campana said that CoPIRG's efforts at this point only involve making the public more aware of the problem. This includes a

benefit CoPIRG will hold for the homeless later this year. Heckler said that the privilege to vote was the foundation the United States was built on and that student advocacy groups have no power to bring about change without the votes of students to back-up their actions. Campana said CoPIRG is cm;rently combining its efforts with Ralph Schomp Oldsmobile and KCNC-Denver in bringing a voter registration drive to campus Sept. 17 to 21 , 26 and Oct. 5. This event has been particularly successful because of legislation passed in July of this year allowing people to register to vote outside the county in which they live.O

Unification raises questions of Holocaust responsibility Susan Kientz The Metropolitan

While leaders of the two Germanys are hammering out the details of their collective future, some say questions of moral responsibility still remain from their past. Melvin Salberg, national chairman of the Anti-defamation League of B 'nai B ' rith, recently sent a letter to West German Chan·cellor Helmut Kohl strongly urging that specific language concerning responsibility for the victims of Nazism be incorporated in the treaty unifying Germany. Reaction on campus from knowledgeablefaculty has been supportiveoftheADL's request.

"Time helps fade some issues," said Norman Provizer of MSCD 's political science department. " But the worst thing to do is to forget the Holocaust - and the ADL wants to remind the East Germans of their involvement and actions." "Unification is a beginning," the ADL wrote the chancellor," and setting the record straight on this critical moral issue is an important element in insuring the success'of this new venture." East Germany has never accepted responsibility for German war crimes, including the killings of millions of people in concentration camps during World War II. West Germany, however, has acknowledged their responsibility in the tragic events of the war. "A huge number of defenseless people were killed by Nazis," said Donald Wall of the MSCD history department. "What's good

is that the ADL talks about everybody, not just the Jewish people." Bobbie Towbin, associate director for the ADL of Denver, said, "West Germany has come to terms with the Holocaust and East Germany has not." Towbin explained the importance of informing future generations about what happened during the Holocaust. "The first thing in changing is to own up to what you ' ve done and set the record straight for the future ." .· However, East Germany is beginning to take steps toward admitting their responsibility for war crimes. Last April, East Germany' s first freely elected legislature apologized to the Jewish people for Nazi atrocities and progJised to make reparations to Israel and seek diplomatic ties. Moreover, documents were signed last

week by the victors of World War II giving international sanction to both German unity and a major reshaping of the East-West balance of power. The signing of this treaty was the last major document needed to clear the way for merging the two Germanys Oct. 3 of this year. In 1945, Germany was separated when Soviet forces refused to withdraw from eastern Germany and a separate state was formed . Events of the past 12 months, including the tearing down of the Berlin Wall, have signaled the end of the Cold War and a reunification of the two Germanys. After 45 years apart, the two nations will become unified. Western investors will have more rights to buy East German land which, economists say, is necessary to rescue the nation's economy. 0

proved. Dean Wolf, directorofthe Physical Plant, said that the contract was delayed in the office of the attorney general. The contract was signed Sept. 18 and construction should begin by Sept. 21. At the ground breaking ceremony, Dick Feuerborn, director of Campus Recreation; Betty Miller, chair of the Auraria Board of Directors, and Angie Binder, chair of the Student Advisory Committee to the Auraria Board, used chrome-plated shovels as they overturned dirt to symbolize the beginning of the project. The ceremony included speakers, door prizes and was followed by an ice- cream social. "If students had not supported the bond issue, none of this would be possible," Miller said as she addressed the crowd. "We've known for a long time the need on campus for a place to hold fairly large events. This will let people know we are here," Miller said. Bill Helman, MSCD athletic director, said, "This place will be beautiful. A lot of people will benefit." According . to Binder, "The new PEEvents Center is not just an athletic building. It is multi-functional and will be used fororganized athletics, classes, concerts and lectures." Feuerborn said that they are ready for the construction. "If anything, we are over-prepared, as we were ready last fall." All classes have been scheduled around the construction. For example, volleyball classes will be held outside instead of in the gym. "At least one court will be available throughout the (construction) process," Feuerborn said. · The remodeling and expansion will take approximately 10 months and is scheduled to be finished in July 1991. Wolf said that they hope to have the main gym finished by the first of February, for the second half of the basketball season. The women's volleyball and men's basketball had to find a home away from home fortheir games. The teams will play at Regis College, the University of Denver and Colorado Christian College. They will be moving between schools depending on which school has a gym available. Due to varying sites, students wishing to attend games are advised to pick up a schedule at the Rectory Building located next to St. Cajetan's. The Auraria Higher Education Center remodeling and expansion project was approved when students passed the $4 million bond issue in a 1988 referendum. Students at all three institutions pay the same athletic fee of $14 each semester. The project will double the size of existing building. They will install 2,200 semiautomatic seats, add racquetball courts, expand the weight room, and renovate locker rooms and office areas. The new building has not yet been named. Binder said they have been calling it the HPER (Health, Physical Education and Recreation) Building but that it is more of a O working title.

Undetected disease may lead to infertility CHLAMYDIA from page 3 the National Institutes of Health. He explained that people increase their risk of contracting chlamydia by having sex with multiple partners. Treating chlamydia is relatively simple - by taking doctor-prescribed antibiotics - however, detecting it is more complex. Testing for the disease sometimes is the only way to discover it. According to one of the MSCD Student Health Clinic physicians, Dr. Gutierrez, during the last few years the significance of chlamydia has been recognized as causing infertility in womeri. He said, "Anyone who comes in and has vaginal discharge is tested immediately for gonorrhea and chlamydia." He said that students having unusual genital discharge should call the Student Health Center and schedule an appointment between 8:30 a.m. and 5:45 p.m. The test takes only 15 minutes to complete and costs $45. Student health insurance pays up to $50 per diagnosis for those covered, Gutierrez said. He stressed that pregnant women who suspect they are infected should be tested at once. The effects of untreated chlamydia were outlined in the October, 1988, issue of the Harvard Medical School Newsletter. Men · infected with chlamydia are most likely to develop an inflammation of theurethia and may experience a mild discharge. If untreated, they continue to spread the·disease. Women develop lingering infections with chlamydia - commonly cervical. The symptoms include discharge, bleeding, or pain during urination. If the infection trails into the uterus, pregnant women will have flare-ups during childbirth. If the disease climbs further, into the Fallopian tubes and ovaries, it produces a condition known as pelvic inflammatory disease. If this condition is prolonged, it may lead to scarring of the tubes and infertility. _ Tubal scarring from pelvic inflammatory disease can cause ectopic pregnancy.

This is when the embryo implants outside the uterus. If implantation occurs in a fallopian tube, the embryo, and often.the tube, will need to be surgically removed. If chlamydia goes undetected in a pregnant woman, it can be passed to a baby during delivery. Sixty to 70 percent of infected mothers transmit their disease to their newborns. The disease manifests itself in the child as a minor eye infection, or more severely as pneumonia. Chlamydia pneumonia affects approximately 30,000 newborns a year. The Center for Disease Control estimates that the cost of complications from chlamydia at $1 billion per year. The yearly results of the disease amount to 300,000 hospitalized cases; 2.5 million outpatient cases of pelvic inflammatory disease; 155,000 infants infected at birth; 16,000 ectopic pregnancies and thousands of cases of infertility. A recent study by Dr. Lane Mercer, chief of gynecology at Northwestern Memorial Hospital in Chicago, revealed that one in six women, aged 24 or younger, were infected with the disease. The study was based on the test results of 1,376 women in middle-class communities. The symptoms of chlamydia are disproportionately mild compared with the damage it can cause to ~omen's reproductive systems. The best defense is early detection. The name chlamydia is derived from the Greek word chlamy&,_:_.meaning to cloak. The name fits. The pact~ria ¢an not grow outside a human cell;' it . must bond itself inside a cell to multiply. Before recent medical advances, testing for chlamydia was difficult - the cell would not grow outside human cells. This may be the reason that it is ·so prevalent. Today, testing is effective and accurate, due to recent medical ad1 vances. The National Institutes of Health report recommends that the use of condoms and other barrier methods of birth control such as the diaphragm may help prevent the spread. of chlamydia and other sexually transmitted infections. 0

CHLAMYDIA FACT CHART . . . . Signs: Men: Burning during urination and discharge from the penis. Women: Often no symptoms until PIO* begins. 75 percent of infected people have no symptoms.

Treatment: Infected people and their sexual partners must be tested and/or treated with antibiotics. Curbable.

Consequences: PIO* and infertility in women including an increased risk of ectopic (tubal) pregnancy. In men, infection of the prostate and epididymis. *Pelvic Inflammatory Disease is an infection of the Fallopian tubes. Every episode of PIO-fever, abdominal pain, heavy bleeding, excessive discharge-increases a woman's risk of becoming infertile.

OP/ED Monday Night Football

Bronco fans have lost that losin' feelin' Dave Plank There's something about Monday Night Football that has managed to ingrain itself so deeply into the American psyche that it's hard to imagine life without it. Back when the big joke was whether or not the Broncos could beat the team that took the field every week only in New York Life commercials, a Monday night game in Denver meant two things. The first was that a really good team, like Dallas (ugh) or the Raiders, was coming to town to humiliate Our Fair City on national television. The second was that there would be a lot of signs bearing disparaging, often obscene, slogans about Howard Cosell, and the cameramen would be hard-pressed to avoid showing them in the background during play. Usually, if you were a Denver fan, the most entertaining thing about the game was watching guys in ABC jackets cluster in the back of the end zones during field goal attempts (this was before "John 3:16" signs became the end zone decoration of choice), trying to block the banners that made references to the size of Cosell's mouth compared to other parts of his body. Now, though, the town has become as blase about Monday Night Football as it has about teams that actually win once in a while. Even the players are cool and aloof about it. Sitting in one's living room during a Monday night game now, propped up by a suitcase of Bud, it isn't hard to imagine the discussion in a Monday night Bronco huddle. Elway: Where the hell is Sewell with the play?

Jesus, it's hot. Are you guys hot? I'm exhausted ! Kartz: Well, you may be hot, but your hands are giving my gonads frostbite. Wanna stop reaching around on me? Elway: Uh, sorry about that. How about you, Clarence? You all right? You took a pretty nasty lick on that last play. Kay: Sniff! Sniff! Humphrey: Damn, we got hosed on that call! Man, I hope somebody breaks into the ref's hotel room tonight, chases the hooker out, and puts a couple bullets in his striped ass! Perry: Where's he stayin'? A few years ago, the NFL and the networks tried putting tiny microphones in players' helmets so that the folks at home could hear what their gridiron heroes were saying. Huddle banter is the reason they stopped, and almost nobody misses it. What has to be the most interesting thing about a Monday night game, though, is what the guys in the booth say to each other during the commercial breaks, afterthe"Buick commercial starts and the director yells, "and we're clear!" Frank: If they don't stop calling these Goddamn replays, we're gonna be here 'till the sun comes up over those mountains! Dan: Oh, you said a mouthful there, Frank! Al: Actually, Frank, the sun doesn't come up over the mountains in Denver. They're to the west of the city. The sun comes up over the high plains to the east of town. Dan: Oh, you said a mouthful there, Al! At this point, an ABC audio technician comes into

OPINION

the booth and replaces the foam cover on Dan's microphone, the old one being soaked with slobber and covered with Twinkie crumbs. Frank: Say, did I tell you guys that my wife was recently voted the most beautiful woman on television by TV Guide viewers? Dan: Oh, that Cindy Lee's a beautiful girl, Frank! Al: Actually, Dan, Frank's wife's riame is Kathy Lee. Yes you did, Frank. But you know, she wouldn't have won if she and Regis didn't shamelessly beg for votes from their talk-show audience, which is predominantly made up of blind and senile nursing home residents. Frank: Kiss my ass, Al. I've seen your wife, and if Cindy Lee, I mean Kathy Lee, looked like her, I'd shave her butt and teach her to walk backwards! I mean if my dog looked like her... Dan: Oh, ho ho ho! That's a good one, Frank! Yessiree. Give me the days when a trip to town by Monday Night Football meant something. When Dandy Don would start singing "Turn Out the Lights" on Denver in the first quarter, before any lines had even started to form at the urinals in the men's rooms at Mile High. Give me the days when fans stopped betting on the score, and started betting on how many minutes would pass between each time Cosell would say the Broncos w~re possibly the worst football team that had ever girded up their loins for battle. Give me the days when winning couldn't be everything on Monday night, because Monday night was never here. And when it was, the Broncos never won. Give me two tickets to Dallas. I want that old feeling back.

Middle East Involvement

Bush confuses patriotism with propaganda The United States believes that we have the right to be involved in the Middle East. We paid for the right with billions of dollars of military aid to a variety of Arab States as well as Israel and Iran. The blood of 280 Marines killed in Lebanon in 1983, along with the agonizing and humiliating hostage crisis has furthered our belief that the Middle East is part of our "Manifest Destiny." The causes of the Iranian hostage crisis are rarely discussed, but the pain and rage is still a fresh wound in American history. A review of U.S. involvement in Iran shows that our support of the Shah did not earn our right to future intervention in the Middle East but rather explains the fanatical hatred many Arabs feel toward us. A brief experiment with Democra cy and independe~ce in Iran was terminated by a U.S. backed coup in 1953, leading to the imposition of a regime that became one of the terror centers of the world. Amnesty International spoke of Iran as having "the Highest rate of death penalties in the world, no valid system of civilian courts and a history of torture which is beyond belief. No country in the world has a worse . record of human rights than Iran." During this period the Iranian police received its

training from the United States as well as a billion and a half dollars in military aid. In the mid '?Os there were 300 officially acknowledged executions of political prisoners, with over 100,000 civilians in prison for their political beliefs. One year before he was overthrown the Shah's U.S. backed troops murdered hundreds of demonstrators in the streets. To add insult to this bloodbath the U.S. press criticized the Iranian people who ''failed to understand the United States' and the Shah's beneficence." In fact the U.S. press claims that the Shah was "not repressive enough." The U.S. government, then as now, realizes that important facts must be buried, ignored and denied to keep the public in line. George Bush is well aware that knowing the history and understand the motivation behind events in the Middle East could lead to a defusing of his apparently unanimous public support. Bush does not want clear thinking, solutions and tolerance but rather rhetoric, blind obedience and flag waving. Thomas C. Mestnik MSCD student

THE METROPOLITAN

LETTERS Former 'Advocate' editor clarifies, responds to newspaper audit article Editor, I would like to thank your staff reporter Jill who wrote the story regarding CU-Denver's student newspaper, "The Advocate." I know it was a time- consuming research project to verity or disqualify information concerning the on-going audit. As Jill indicated, in so many words, an audit is a routine fact-finding exercise. It helps determine the budgetary process. There are those who had hoped you wouldn't check with the people involved and print sensationalized rumors. To those students who are not close to student government or the campus newspaper, these rumor mongers facilitate the wasting of time and energy by good people trying to get something accomplished. They [rumor mongers] still seek the wisdom and maturity which, to this day, escape them.

...

There are a couple of facts, however, which have been confused. First, I was arrested for rolling my car window up on the arm of an Auraria police officer (they wanted to tow my car away). Since they are "officially state police," this act is classified as a 3rd degree assault. This was later reduced to "Interfering with government operations," a misdemeanor. Since I had never been arrested before, the DA has agreed, with permission of the court, to have the whole matter removed from my my record as of October 1, 1990. The traffic citations were paid. Second, former ASCU-Denver President Mark Johnson, is still very upset because our staff exposed the scandals of his administration to the extent none of his staff was re-elected this year. He was also stuck with a $1,200 bill he tried to make our students pay for. Anyway, in the article, he was quoted trying to explain

a bookkeeping procedure he didn't understand. Two representatives from our newspaper attended a national convention for college newspapers. Representatives from The Metropolitan also attended. Airline tickets were purchased through CU-Denver. Upon returning, one of our staff writers discovered he had lost his return ticket. It is difficult to verify losing something. It cost an extra $50 to have the ticket reprinted, which we accounted for with a receipt. The claim ASCU-Denver President Johnson was trying to make was, the staff writer sold the one-way ticket to Denver and profited from it. CU-Denver Accounting thought is was possible, but very unlikely. The ticket was listed as lost and the matter was settled. Thank you for the space to clear this up. Kevin Amsberry 'Advocate' editor 1989-90

Moore answers charges of inaccessability, unaccountability Editor, 1would like to take the opportunity through a letter to the editor to correct some misconceptions presented in Gayle Neyman's article in last week's Metropolitan resulting from a brief telephone interview with me <;>n MSCD's assessment progran:i. First, Ms. Neyrf!an states that I did n<?t return her phone calls. I received one phone call mid-afternoon on Wednesday, September 12 from Ms. Neyman; I returned her call at about 4:30 that day upon my return from a meeting. This factual inaccuracy is incidental, however. Ms. Neyman's comments implying my "stonewalling" information are what impel me to respond. As a further point of clarification, MSCD's assessment program including its plan for dissemination of information is articulated in the college's Accountability Plan. Anyone interested in understanding the philosophy and purpose of assessment may wish to read this document. Copies of this approved plan are avail-

able in the ASMSCD office, the Alumni Office and the this information).

MSCD student tops national test Lori A. Fleming The Metropolitan

Mariesa Anderson is not one to boast about her achievements. But for a 22-yearold, she already has quite a few. A biology major at MSCD, Anderson hopes to finish next summer with a bachelor of science degree in biology, emphasizing microbiology, and a bachelor of arts degree in chemistry. Anderson recently received a perfect score on a test given by the Department of Agriculture where she is a biological aid for a laboratory researching cattle diseases. Through the MSCD cooperative education program, she started her part-time position at the lab two and a half years ago.

The government requires the annual test for the lab aides. Last year, Anderson came close to a perfect score on the test. This year, she scored 100 percent. This is not a test where the student simply darkens a circle with a number-two pencil. This month-long ordeal, done in the lab, tested Anderson's ability to apply her knowledge in a technical, precise manner. The test comes with the needed lab supplies along with detailed, written instructions. Anderson explained the complex procedure of her experiments, first establishing control groups. Then she had to mix, to the exact millimeter, ingredients such as antigens and blood serum to complete the twopart test. This test, she explained, required her to identify and evaluate a disease found in cattle called anaplasmosis. She said the testing is stressful because she had a limited amount of ingredients to work with. So if

one step of the experiment failed, she had wasted some of her precious supplies. "I was really happy," Anderson said of her perfect score."It's valid as to what you can do." But Anderson struggled to give herself much credit. She spoke of the people who have been key figures to her success. Of those people, two are at MSCD. Anderson remembers first meeting David Marsh, a biology professor, as an incoming freshman. She was impressed with him then, and said he has given her a great deal of support and care. He's spent more time with her than she expected from a teacher, and he helped her in securing her job. Marsh said students like Anderson need to be recognized. There is a myth thatMSCD doesn't have quality students or programs. But he said Anderson is an excellent example that MSCD does produce quality. Anderson has done an outstandingjob in her work at the lab, he said. Leslie Hauschildt, assistant director of the Cooperative Education internship center, is another p~rson Anderson credits. She had high praise for both Hauschildt and the program. Anderson is thankful for the training she's received at the lab to compliment her course work. "She's done a phenomenal job," Hauschildt said. She said Anderson's position has evolved from entry level to one requiring a great deal of technical skill and knowledge. Anderson talked about her mother's continuing support and a high school biology teacher that led to her college Gourse work. She also cited her supervisor at the lab, Richard Forde. "He really tries hard for you," she said. But Anderson tries hard herself as well. She said she won an award last year from the Department of Agriculture. When prodded for the details, she said she received both a cash award and a pay raise. Hauschildt said the award is quite an achievement because the department doesn't give the award based upon any set time period, such路 as once a year. The award is given only when they find an employee that has done very outstanding work. For the 1989-90 academic year, Hauschildt said Anderson also won an award from Cooperative Education, and received the outstanding student award from the School of Letters, Arts and Sciences. After graduation, Anderson plans to attend Colorado State University. She said she will start in the master's program in microbiology, hoping to go on for her Ph.D. Anderson said she will miss being at MSCD and at the lab. "I like my job. I like what I do now." But she will leave, furthering her knowledge and skills, researching animal diseases. 0

THEATRE Play adds new dimension to love story Kirt Ace Begler Features Editor It's definitely not "Romeo and Juliet"that is unless Juliet changed her name to Rose and went off the deep end, and Romeo became a short-on-class truck driver named Cliff - but it is a love story. The love story is William Mastrosimone' s "The Woolgatherer" currently running at The Theatre on Broadway. Under producer Doris Deering and director Michael Duran, the show is one of the best to hit the theater in the last year. Rose is one of only two characters in the production. Scared and paranoid of anyone whom she gets close to, she lives in an hourglass world where she gets up in the morning, goes to work behind the candy counter at the local five and dime and then arrives home, only to go to bed and start the cycle all over again. However, she does take

is Little Miss Timid, who says thank you after he kisses her. And he is the drinking, drugging and smoking roughneck that insults her with every other word he uses. However, they somehow compliment each other neither of them trust anyone because they both have been hurt. It is best illustrated from one of Hart's lines that goes something like, "You start lovin ' something that isn't there and, before you know it, you hate what' s there. And that's hell." The play ends with an ironic twist, but ends like most love stories, with a happy ending. This happy ending being that they can lean on each other. The set is simple, but so is the play. Yet, the apartment set reminds me of many college students ' apartments. And this is one of the more convincing sets I have seen, from the round-top refrigerator to the single sink and hotplate-style stove. Overall, this is a play that is recommend to anyone, as long as you take a box of tissues with you. One of the final scenes had at least four people in the audience crying. It may be a little depressing, but is one of the best bets this fall "The Woolgatherer" is showing at The Theatre on Broadway Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 7 p.m. through Oct. 14.

MSCD drops softball the volleyball program, but it was ranked nationally last year, and statistics show that over 90 percent of NCAA schools have a volleyball program. Also, the council didn' t want to cut a women's sport that had a parallel men 's sport. That took away the option of cutting the swimming basketball, soccer or tennis programs. With the cancellation of the softball program, MSCD now offers five competitive sports teams for both men and women. Under NCAA rules, any athlete who's on a team that has been cancelled can transfer to another school without loosing their eligibility. So all of MSCD ' s former softball players can transfer and be eligible to play immediately. Smith also said that the scholarships of those who choose to remain at MSCD will be honored for the remaining years of their eligibility. The funds will come out of the athletic budget. Smith said that if the referendum had passed, it would have also helped finance an athletic staff assistant, a full-time volleyball assistant coach and a new golf program. 0

Kimberly Palmer The Metropolitan The MSCD women's softball program has been cancelled due to a lack of funds, according to Greg Smith, sports information director. Smith said that part of the funding problem had to do with the failure to pass the referendum to raise student fees last spring. "We needed increased funding," Smith said, "and we went to the students to get it." Because the referendum didn't pass, the at)lletic office received only an increase of $1 per student each semester from their student fees. That increase, according to Smith, doesn't cover the lack of inflationary increases in the budget. Therefore, a program had to be cut. The Athletic Advisory Council decided to cut the softball program after looking at all the programs and its options. "We had no choice," Smith said. "You can'tbuy a$101unch with$5 inyourpocket. We can't spend money that we don't have." Smith said the council considered cutting Trivia: What do Heisman Trophy winners RB John Cappelletti and QB Doug Flutie have in common?

A view from the press box Dale Shrull Sports Editor

What a start to the new television season. And everybody thought they would have to wait until The Simpsons square-off against The Cosby Show before they would see a great match-up. On Monday night, the new prime-time TV schedule got off to a rousing start. The Denver Broncos and the Kansas City Chiefs, a great game, who would have thunk it? OK, OK, so the game wasn't a masterpiece. Instead, it was a collection ofthe ugly, the bizarre, the amazing and the heart stopping. Although the entire game may not have been a classic, at least some of the plays were undoubtedly classic and unforgettable. We could spend all day analyzing, criticizing and gagging over some of the putrid play on Monday night. But, as Bart Simpson would say, "don't have a cow, man." It would be easy to concentrate on John Elway's continued dominance over the Chiefs (that' s sarcasm). At least he finished the game without throwing a pass to someone in a red helmet. He also dido 't hit pay dirt with any of his passes; instead he hit just plain dirt with many of his passes. Once again, don't have a cow. Let us now concentrate on the great plays.

BRIEFS

Cowabunga Dude!

Bronco game quite a HIT During the course of a game, there are always plays that have no effect on the outcome and others that have a profound influence on the final score. The greatness of a play should be judged on its impact at the moment, not just it's impact on the game. Each play should be judged individually- whether it effects the outcome or not is secondary. Monday nights top five plays: S. Bobby Humphrey, first quarter, 37yard touchdown run. Beautiful. 4. David Treadwell' s 22-yard field goal as time expires. When Treadwell's kick floated through the 18-feet-6-inches ofempty space between the uprights, the Broncos had the victory. At the same time, lynch mobs all over Denver were calling off their search for Kip Corrington (See number 3). 3. Stephone Paige, with less than two minutes to go in the game, splits the seam of the Broncos defense, grabs a Steve DeBerg pass, breaks Corrington ' s tackle and motors 83 yards for the go-ahead score. 2.JohnElway to VanceJohnson,49-yard pass. Time and time again, other than in Super Bowls, Elway comes through in the clutch. Fourth-and- I 0, missing their last nine passes, the Broncos looked.to have snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Down to

inners and losers

their proverbial last gasp, Elway let the ball fly . And faster than you could say 'cowabungadude!' 49 yards later, The Vance and hundreds-of-thousands of Bronco fans were celebrating. 1. The most memorable play of the game had absolutely nothing to do with the outcome. . The key players: Christian Okoye and Steve Atwater. Okoye, nicknamed the "Nigerian Nightmare," is the most physically imposing player aJ his position in the NFL. One word is usually all that's needed to describe himunstoppable. But in this game, the Broncos did stop him. Gearing their entire defense to stop Okoye, stop him they did. With gang-tackling and ankle-grabbing techniques, the Broncos turned the "Nigerian Nightmare" into the " Lumbering Lullaby." On this play, however, a gang of Broncos wasn' t needed; nor was it required to grab Okoye by the ankles. On this play, Steve Atwater was all that was needed. They say that football is a collision sport. This play proved to be a perfect example. Okoye, seeing an opening, accelerates toward the line of scrimmage, two yards is all he needs to pick up the first down. Unstoppable, right? Wrong! Steve Atwater - outweighed by 30 or more pounds - in a vicious collision, knocks the huge Okoye backwards and onto the seat of his pants for a two yard loss. Wow! Two plays later, the Chiefs scored a touchdown. So what was the big deal? If that's your attitude then you're missing the whole point of the game. who wins is important, the most important aspect of the game. But enjoy all the great plays, even if they don't effect the outcome. And, hey Bart, take notice. As Atwater found out, it's not the size that counts. Sometimes the little guy gets the best of the big guy. When you take aim at Cosby, just remember - the bigger they are, the harder 0 they fall.

SPORTS

Fantasy football, more than adream for some people

.:.

Jim Mack The Metropolitan r••

If your National Football League team can't win the big games, maybe your "fantasy football " team can. In the past few years, the interest for fantasy football has been developing so rapidly that new leagues are consistently starting up to accommodate the rising number of interested fans . Radio stations, magazines and newspapers sponsor their own leagues and nobody can predict how far it will go. Why has it become so popular? Doug Cohen, president of fantasy football at KYBG sports radio 1090, has a rather simple solution. "It's a lot of fun," Cohen said, "people would rather root for their fantasy team than a specific NFL team." -The game is simple. A participant will pick their own players from a roster-sheet at the beginning of the season. Participants then follow their teams throughout the season by charting the players' performance in each of their respective NFL games. The majority of the leagues have the

same rules. Each team consists of two quarterbacks, three running backs, three wide receivers, two tight ends, two kickers and two defensive teams.You score points based on the actual performance in regulation games by the players and defensive teams you have chosen. For instance, if a quarterback that you have chosen throws a touchdown pass from six yards or less, you receive six points. A touchdown pass between 15 and 35 yards gives a player l 0 points, and a scoring toss over 36 yards nets 15 points.

to a minimal number of points. A defense that gives up eight or less points in a game will earn 20 points for whomever chose them.

'It's a lot of fun, people would rather root for their fantasy team than a specific NFL team.'

Choosing a poor defense can be disastrous. A team that gives up 22 points or more will net a zero on the player's scorecard. If a player or defense you have chosen goes sour, you can trade players. This is especially helpful if a player is injured and is unable to play the next week. The injured player can be dropped and another picked. This rule can vary depending on different league rules. Now for the best part. At the end of the season, players add up all of their points. Those who have chosen the best players and defensive teams are awarded prizes. The prizes will vary in different leagues. Free trips to Hawaii,.ocean cruises and substantial cash amounts are not uncommon to

Scoring for running backs, wide receivers and tight ends are based on receptions and rushing touchdowns. Once again, the longer the touchdown, the more points awarded. A kicker tallies one to nine points, depending on the length of a successful field goal attempt. A defensive team can earn points by returning fumbles and interceptions for touchdowns and by holding opposing-teams-

those who win it all. There. are all kinds of reasons to play fantasy f<,?Otball. The growing number of participants each year seems to suggest that this could be a highly popular game for years to come. It is not too late to enter a league this year even though the season has begun. MSCD junior Roger Tanita doesn't play for the prizes, he plays to satisfy his ego. " I play because I like to see how well I really know the players," Tanita said. "1t•s Iike an all-star game where you ' re the coach and you pick who you want.·· Long-time player Shawn Anderson has mixed views on why he plays. "I play for two reasons," Anderson said. "Most importantly is because when I win it, I can talk stuff to my friends who play ... Also, I wouldn ' t mind hanging out in Hawaii for a few weeks, that's what it's all about." Former MSCD student Gregg Downing may have summed things up best. "I play because football is the most intense sport on the face of the earth," Downing said. "The more I can get involved, the bener." If you want to find out more information on how.to play or become a coach in fantasy football you can tune in to KYBG 1090 AM on Sunday nights at 9 p.m. 0
