Webb, Gonzales get peace awards • ··:

Legislator, activist receive honors at King remembrance

Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy of peace and tolerance was honored at a Jan. 15 breakfast during which state Rep. Wilma Webb and Chicano activist Rodolfo "Corky" Gonzales received peace awards. About 200 people attended MSCD's Peace Breakfast in the Student Union to remember the slain civil rights activist. "If we ever loved him, let us strive now to eliminate racism and hatred," CJ. White, MSCD professor of sociology, said in his opening invocation. Six members of the black theater group Eulipions set the tone for the morning's tribute. Eulipions replayed "the great and terrible history of Black Americans through slavery, servitude, segregation and sorrow" from the poetry and prose of Langston Hughes, Maya Angelou, King and others. Eulipions actress Roslyn Washington told the true story of a 15-year-old black girl who tried to attend an allwhite school in a Southern state tom with racial strife in 1954. Portraying the girl, Washington related how she rose early that morning, excited about going to school. After ironing her dress and leaving the house, the girl was met at the school by a crowd filled with hatred and fear. "We don't want no nigger bitch goin' to this school," a member of the crowd jeered.

Wilma Webb addressed the audience after receiving an award at the Martin Luther King Jr. Peace Breakfast on Jan. 15.

Provost Council studies transfer, graduation policies Barry Tobin Staff Writer

The MSCD Provost Council met Jan. 7 at the Denver World Trade Center to discuss transfer credits from community colleges, graduation requirements and a catalog change. "Students taking remedial clas~es at community colleges misunderstand the transfer

policy," said Lavon C. Moton, assistant vice president of Academic Affairs. "Classes numbered below I 00 do not transfer because the Colorado Commission on Higher Education mandates that MSCD will not have remedial classes." Between 200 to 300 students per year get lost in the system because MSCD has no means of tracking them. Graduation guidelines and requirements for spring 1992 are being studied by the council. A proposal has been drafted and

awaits approval by Provost David Williams. According to the proposal, candidates for graduation will receive an academic status report in February. The graduation application and fee must be received by March 20. Candidates' final grades are due by May 8. "If a student is attending another school and the school doesn't send the final grade by May 8, there could be problems," said Kenneth C. Curtis, dean of Admissions and . Records.

However, the proposal suggests that a letter be sent to the University of Colorado at Denver and other area schools indicating the need for candidates' grades to be submitted by the deadline. The 1992-93 catalog will reflect a change in wording but not content under the section titled "Requirements for Bachelor's Degree." Several members of the Provost Council <;aid the wording in the same section of the 1990-91 catalog is confusing. :J

Student paper prints rapist's letter to the editor Houston (NSNS) - In order to warn potential victims about date rape, the student newspaper at the University of Houston published an anonymous letter on Dec. 4, 1991, from a student purporting to be a date rapist. Women Against Violence Everywhere, a UH student group, held a campus demonstration to keep attention focused on the subject of date rape.

Fast facts for the environmentalist

The National Student News Service offers the following facts about American and ecology: • Every two weeks, Americans throw away enough glass bottles and jars to fill the 1,350-foot twin towers in New York City. • Americans throw away enough office paper annually to build a wall 12 feet high stretching from Los Angeles to New York City. •Two of the world's plants and two animals become extinct each day. By 1992, one species an hour will become extinct. •Every Sunday, 500,000 trees are cut down to make our nation's newspapers and 88 percent of these papers are thrown into the trash.

Coalition assails anti-CoPIRG bill Proposal to torpedo funding mechanism called 'simply bad policy' Kristopher Evars The Metropolitan Student leaders from across the state met Jan. 13 at the state Capitol to voice opposition to HB 1033, a bill that would nullify the $3 waiveable fee during registration that funds CoPIRG. Students for Democratic Rights, a coalition of CoPIRG, the Colorado Student Association and Colorado student governments, released a statement that called the bill "simply bad policy" and said "students have taken affirmative steps, either through referendums or elected student government vote, to approve these fees." The bill, they said, would "undermine campus democracy." Students collectively have the right to vote for or against the fee when it appears on the ballot. In 1991 elections, students on four different campuses (MSCD, USC, UNC, and CSU) voted better than 2-1 in favor of main-

refund. CoPIRG pays for the collection and maintenance of the fee, and the money received is allocated by a student board of directors. The bill itself calls the $3 charge a "deceptive trade practice." According toHB 1033,negative check-off l.Jlura Gr199-Toma I The MelrOpOll!M payments are CoPIRG sponsors events on and off campus to draw attention to non-voluntary environmental concerns. and elimination of the fee is "necraining CoPIRG with the fee.

Peace~~~~~~~trom page 1 Washington's face reflected the pain and confusion of the girl. "Hooked for a friendly face in the crowd," Washington said, portraying the young girl. "There was an old woman with a smiling face. But when I smiled back, she spit on me." The girl ran "the longest block of my life to the nearest bus stop bench," collapsed and wept. A sympathetic white man sat down and put his arm around the girl. "Don't let them see you cry," the man told her. Washington said reading the story is never easy for her. "I find myself getting emotional each time," Washington said later. "I know that this is a woman who paid a high price so I could go to school." King, winner of the 1964 Nobel Peace Prize, founder of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference and civil rights leader, was assassinated in Memphis in 1968. As part of the celebration, MSCD honored Webb and Gonzales with the peace awards. Gonzales, a nationally known leader within the Chicano community, was surrounded by the proof of his work: youthtall in stature, brown in color, and proud by nature. They were students from the Denver Chicano community and attended the breakfast to show appreciation for the leaders who had helped pave their way. In accepting the award for her father, Gonzales' daughter spoke on his behalf and expressed his gratitude and his continuing belief in the struggle for justice and equality for all people. As she spoke, Corky Gonzales received hugs from his youthful admirers. Webb expressed similar gratitude and sentiments in accepting her peace award. "I am humbled to receive your award. I feel like whatever I have done is little by comparison." Webb expressed her gratitude to Gonzales. She reminisced about how Gonzales, years ago, had led "The Poor People' s March" in Denver, as King had led "The Poor People's March" in Washington . Karen Thorpe, assistant vice president for Student Affairs, co-chaired the breakfast with Yolanda Ericksen, director of student activities. "It's time we celebrate a holiday like this," Thorpe said to the audience. "It's time we celebrate what we know to be right." Cl

Gate crashing at PTC is costly Barry Tobin Staff Writer There are no bargains for people who try to sneak through the debitcard gate at the Parking and Transportation Centre without paying. Here's the scam. When the car in front of the petty thief pays the parking fee, the gate rises automatically so the car can exit. Before the gate comes down, the next car in line races through. Two for one. But, it's a bad bet. Here's why: Todd A. Statler, 25, of Wheat Ridge, was arrested by Auraria Public Safety officers for investigation of theft a block from the PTC, moments after "defeating" the gate. PTC employees had notified APS of Statler's attempt. Statler appeared in Denver District Court three weeks later, pleaded guilty to petty theft and was fined $107. APS spokesman Jim Ferguson said a camera monitors the gates. "We would rather people pay the $2 parking fee than to risk having 0 a criminal record and paying the fines," Ferguson said.

THE METROPOLITAN

LETTERS Duke's politics no aberration in the Republican Party, Mestnik charges Editor, It is with utmost hypocrisy that the Bush administration has tried to disavow David Duke. For the past 25 years the Republican Party has billed itself as the "white united front" (Manning Marble, Democracy and Race). The GOP has successfully used subtle veiled forms of racism such as attacking affirmative action and civil rights legislation as well as direct means such as the Willie Horton ad and the white supramastoid rhetoric of Sen. Jesse Helms. Patrick Buchanan has stated that he had "never heard David Duke say anything that a conser-

vative could disagree with." Buchanan also has stated that "the colonization of Africa by the Europeans was the best thing that could have happened to the people of Africa." William Coors, an influential and respected member of many right-wing institutions, stated to a minority business group in Denver that if they thought it was "unfair" that their "ancestors were dragged here in chains against their will. ... I would urge those of you who feel that way to go back to where your ancestors come from, and you will find out that probably the greatest favor that anybody ever did you, was to drag your ancestors over here in chains, and I

mean it." (Russ Bellant, Coors Connection) Local talk radio host Mike Rosen made the proud boast that he would support David Duke over Pat Schroeder. (Rosen also defended Zeke Mowats' right to sexually harass reporter Lisa Olsen in the New England Patriots' locker room .) David Duke is not an aberration but rather a predictable and necessary outcome in a country built upon exploitation. As Dr. Manning Marable states, "Capitalist development has occurred not in spite of the exclusion of blacks,

but because of the brutal exploitation of blacks as workers and consumers." (How Capitalism Has Undermined Black America.) The Bush administration problem with Duke and his KKK affiliations is that a clandestine organization to suppress African-Americans is superfluous. All facets of American society - from the courts, to education, to health care work to keep African-Americ_ans in their hist oric place. Namely, oq::upation of the lowest rung on the socioeconomic ladder. Thomas C. Mestnik MSCD student

VIEWPOINT Religious groups using coercive tactics to recruit Although I am myself a representative of a religious organization, I am writing because I am concerned about the methods or tactics employed by some religious organizations to recruit members for their groups, particularly from among students on the Auraria Campus. My purpose in writing is twofold : 1) to alert students to these tactics, which may be deceptive and manipulative, and to offer counsel on how to identify groups which may use them, and ; · 2) to encourage students not to paint all religious groups with the same brush on account of some groups which may use approaches or techniques that are offensive. As a campus minister, I believe in and uphold the principle of free inquiry into religious truth. I also uphold the right of all groups, religious and otherwise, to promote their ideas in the free marketplace of ideas. Inquiry into religious or spiritual troth is as much a part of higher education as are other areas of sttidy. There is a spiritual side of life that belongs to life on campus, and each of us seeks to pursue and promote that

spiritual side from our own perspective, from our own perception of truth. However, attempts by any group or individual to use deceptive, manipulative, or in any sense coercive means to advance the cause of their own interpretation of truth should be denounced and rejected. People have the right to be free from various forms of harassment from such groups or individuals. We all need to feel like we belong somewhere, and we are all looking for answers to our questions of life. Religious groups are an important way that people find these needs being met, but some high-pressure groups may seek to exploit these needs, particularly if you are in an especially vulnerable time in your life. Beware of such groups and the tactics they may employ: ·They may tend to isolate you from your family , friends and other groups. • They may tend to make you feel guilty, ashamed, less "spiritual" if you don't believe the same way they do. • They may claim to have "all the answers," and

discourage you from asking questions or looking for your own answers elsewhere. • They may claim to be the only "true '~church . • They may pressure you into attending group activities. • They may invite you to activities, but may not be willing to give you a clear and specific description of the purpose and content. • They may try to avoid telling you the name of the group at first, or what church sponsors the group. • They may assign you to a "friend" or group of friends whose job it is to "keep tabs" on you (a "shepherd" or disciple"). Be particularly wary of any group which asks or expects total or exclusive loyalty or commitment to the group or its leader, or uses such loyalty or commitment as a measure of your faithfulness to God. If you find yourself approached by or becoming involved with such a group, I encourage you to ask as many questions as you need to, in order to feel fully informed and comfortable with your involvement. Talk to people you trust -your friends, a teacher, parents, a counselor, or your own pastor, priest, or rabbi , about your involvement with the group. Be suspicious of a group that discourages you from doing so - the truth is not afraid of investigation by independent sources. Don't allow yourself to become isolated. If you decide you don't want to be involved with a certain group, and you continue to be approached or harassed, JUST SAY NO as clearly and firmly as you can. You do not need to get into an argument or to defend yourself to anyone. Talk to the staff at Student Activities about overzealous recruiters. As for my second purpose, I appeal to you not to identify all religious groups with those that may be the most visible , vocal , aggressive, or offensive. They do not necessarily represent the best that religion has to offer. If you choose not to be involved in any religious organization, that is your rightand privilege. But please do not assume that all religious organizations are the same, even the ones that claim the same tradition. There are vast differences in doctrine and approach, even within traditions. The Auraria Campus is a place of great diversity. Diversity is good. Just as we all need to be free to pursue and promote truth according to our own conscience, so we also need to respectthe rights of others to do so. None of us is in position to judge or to be judged by others who do not see the truth in the same way as we see it, and God is not served by those who sit in judgment of others.

Rev. Nelson Bock, Lutheran Campus Pastor

EDITORIAL LETTERS Fees, texts write the book POLICY on ripping off MSCD students.____Âˇ--~ Lawrence Jones Editor

Classes have begun and tensions are already rising on the Auraria Campus. Combined with the usual pressures of new classes, work schedules and trying to figure out our new instructors is an incredible pain that is striking each of us where it hurts most the pocketbook. Tuition, student fees and supplies are an understandable expense when attending college. However, there are a few areas that seem to strike us so hard that we spend the first few weeks reeling under the impact. The cost of textbooks appears to be skyrocketing. Why? Many of these texts are not new books, not even new editions of the old texts, and yet we see higher prices proudly displayed on them when we struggle our way through the crowds at the Auraria Book Center. The Messenger's Motives (a journalism text) was originally published in 1985. It is still used by teachers, and a used copy now costs about $25! It is a barely adequate text that is 7 years old, and this price cannot reflect its value to a journalism student. Other students, of every school here, can tell similar horror stories of texts that they are required to buy. At the end of the semester we will be able to recoup some of this expense by selling our texts back to the Book Center. Of course they cannot buy it back at the original price, but the ridiculously low amounts they pay for a book leaves us astounded when we walk away. The journalism text brought a student less than $5 when he sold it back to the Book Center last year, and now they want to sell it for $25. Believe it or not, the Book Center has the audacity to state that they don't make high profits. Really? Every year we are required to buy certain texts by our teachers. Every year the Book Center has enormous crowds trying to fulfill this obligation and fill the coffers of Auraria. Here at a state-subsidized college, is it appropriate to demand such high prices of students who probably work part- or full-time while going to school? Many of these students have families as

well that they are trying to support. This is how the state supports non-traditional students who are trying to better themselves through higher education? The Book Center falls under the auspices of the Auraria Higher Education Center. This conglomerate of unseen faces may or may not be responsible for prices at the Book Center, but regardless, this is an area that needs improvement to help the struggling students of Auraria. Another area in desperate need of improvement is the MSCD drop fee. Whenever a class is droJ'fJed, after the first day of classes, a $30 fee is assessed to the student. The only reason imaginable for this is that MSCD wants students to be psychics and know what classes will work best for them, regardless of any other circumstances, and pick them weeks in advance. What if a student and instructor don't click? Obviously the college feels that students should be penalized just because, as consumers of this college's product, they wish to shop around and find the classes and professors that suit them best. It is true that if another class is added for the one dropped, then no drop fee is assessed. But what of those students whose schedules change so that they can no ranger afford the time for that extra class they had hoped to take? The idea of freedom of choice should exist in all areas of consumerism, especially on a college campus. Students attend college with the intention of garnering an education that will give them the tools to succeed in their chosen field. If this goal flies out of reach due to increasing costs and fees, then somewhere the system is failing. A state-subsidized college is the country's attempt to ensure that everyone can afford a good education. It is ironic, therefore, that everything here seems to keep costing more and more. Tuition and student fees obviously rise with inflation, but the cost of printing a textbook or making a small change in the school's registration computer cannot be so expensive as to warrant the ridiculous prices we see at the Book Center or justify the $30 drop fee we are assessed without hope of an appeal. A college or university has one purpose: to serve the needs of students and educate them in their fields of endeavor. If this cannot be done at a state-subsidized college for a reasonable price, then perhaps education is not their goal.

Politics corrupt public awareness of cancer research Editor,

â&#x20AC;˘

Truth that has been determined by political means is very often a falsehood. "Cancer reasearch" in particular has been portrayed for years by the media as completely well-meaning and scientific. It isn't. Science can be corrupted by political considerations just like anything else, and that's why we have the likes of the American Cancer Society and the National Cancer Institute. They take advantage of the fact that the media and general public are not scientifically oriented to perpetrate a vast research establishment and fuel their jobs. Shocking? Not at all; rationalizations are made in the halls of power every day. Dr. Linus Pauling (professor emeritus/Stanford) conducted a trial in Scotland in the '?Os demonstrating that vitamin C prolongs the life of terminal cancer patients by a factor of seven when 1Ograms a day are

given. The trial involved 100 patients treated and 1,000 controls. Pauling also had this confirmed by a trial in Japan and wrote a book on it. Dr. Harold Manner, biologist at Loyola University, demonstrated in 550 test animals that a specific combination of vegetable and other enzymes with emulsified vitamin A and D-amygdalin produced complete remission of cancerous tumors. Please note that all of the above compounds are non-toxic and no one has chosen to replicate their~ methods. Why? A good place to get the facts (and not the fraud) is: Linus Pauling Institute of Science and Medicine 440 Page Mill Road Palo Alto, Calif. 94306 Russell E Murray MSCD student

FEATURES Many gamblers still feel Vegas best bet Jacqueline Leonard The Metropolitan

Dear Counselor, I made several resolutions for the new year. They are to lose about 15 lbs. to eat healthier food, and to exercise regularly. It's been a little over a week and I have not done one thing. What bothers me is that this seems to be a pattern in many situations. I make decisions to do something beneficial for myself but I can't seem to act on those decisions. All I seem to achieve is a good dose of guilt in the process. How can I get myself to follow through with the goals I set for myself?

Unhappily Stuck Dear Unhappily Stuck, The beginning of a new year seems to be a great time to get rid of all those nagging habits and circumstances. Each year, many people don't accomplish the resolutions they set and end up feeling disappointed with themselves. The most important factor that contributes to this failure is the lack of adequate planning. If you are unclear about your goals, motivation, and outcome, then those uncertainties become stumbling blocks that will sabotage your efforts. To clarify your goals and establish direction, you must consider several factors. 1. Clearly define your goals. Be very specific. You wantto lose 15 lbs in how much time? What does eating healthier mean? Eating less of what? More of what? What exercises will you do and when? 2. Determine if your goals are realistic. You should consult with professionals to help you decide how much weight you should lose and at what rate, how to choose healthier menus and eating habits, and what type of exercise and schedule is most appropriate for you. 3. Are your goals things that you want to do or do you feel that you have to do them? Setting goals that you want generates the motivation to accomplish them. Pursuing goals that you have to do usually generates some resistance.

LAS VEGAS, Nev. - The newly adopted, localized gambling in Central City and Blackhawk has little or no affect on the high volume of gamblers that head to Las Vegas, according to Dante Collioni, hotel supervisor of the Palace Station Hotel and Casino near the Las Vegas strip. "We '11 never be effected by small-stakes gambling," Collioni said. According to several blackjack dealers in the Palace Station Casino, business has not been what it used to be. But Collioni said most of the people that come to Vegas come on a regular basis and the new towns will not attract them. He attributes the slowing business to the economy. "There will always be high rollers, and where can they go?" Collioni said. In Central City there are limits on how much a person can spend; no more than twenty five dollars in a slot machine. "Because of these limits, people will choose Vegas," Collioni said. "You have to bet big to win big." The Lady Luck Casino, located in downtown Las Vegas, has experienced low volumes, decreasing revenues and has laid off72 people since July 1991. They do not

attribute it to gaming in Deadwood, S. D., or the anticipation of gaming, which came to Colorado in October 1991. 'The economy had been poor, but when given the chance to win money and possibly pay for your vacation, people will always try," said Raymond Mundabo, pit boss of the Lady Luck Casino. "Lady luck" is not always on everyone's side, however. "The last time I was in Las Vegas, I said that I would never go back, but I am looking forward to going to Central City because I can have the same quality of entertainment at a fraction of the cost," said Shari Rottman, a freshman at the University of Colorado at Denver. Others find Colorado more appealing.

BE1TERTHAN A MASON JAR.

"Colorado has much more to offer me than just gambling," said Gwen Ickberg, a junior at UCD. "Sure, we haven't got room for the glitzy shows like Vegas, but the aesthetics of Colorado can't be beat. "Gambling is just another form of entertainment. Now it can be combined with skiing and other Colorado favorites, so I would imagine that Las Vegas will eventually suffer from the new situation." Mundabo and Collioni believe that gaming in Colorado will continue to be innocuous to Las Vegas, but Rich Bylon, an. avid gambler, predicts that many people "will bypass Vegas and remain (in Colorado), or travel to Colorado, because it offers gambling now." Q

THE WISE CHOICE

4. What do you expect the payoffs to be? Will you be pleasing others or yourself? It is important to evaluate the payoffs so you don't set yourself up for disappointment that can discourage you from future efforts. 5. How do you see yourself and your life after achieving these goals? How do these goals affect your other goals? 6. Review you progress periodically. you find difficulty or displeasure, allow yourself to modify your direction at regular intervals. 7. Be patient and flexible. There may be times when you can't or won't follow your plan of action. Rather than focusing on the one drawback, look at the entire picture, i.e., six days of success and one sm'1i~

THE ARTS Troupe brings cultural diversity, art to children Philippe Marquis Staff Writer

...

Five MSCD actors have found the time to share folk tales from around the world with children throughout Colorado. The MSCD Touring Company, a troupe of college theater veterans, travels around Colorado performing A Time To Share, written and choreographed by the actors in the company. "You touch someone everywhere you go," said Theresa Dwyer, one of the company's actors. " If there is only one child in each crowd who was touched by the performance, it makes all the work and rehearsal time worthwhile." Their energetic and virtually acrobatic performance tells Italian, Mexican, Russian, Japanese, African-American and Native American folk stories designed to heighten school children's appreciation for the arts and for cultural diversity. Although the performance is designed for children from preschool to sixth grade, it also caters to an older audience with frequent sophisticated witticisms. MSCD theater veterans Dwyer, Clayton Todd, Susie Ross, Jamil Khera and Tobias Smith make up MSCD's 1990-92 touring company - a program conceived and organized by Marilyn Hetzel, head of MSCD' s theater department. Because of the time and

Hetzel said. In addition to performances, the actors also learn how to teach various handson workshops for the children. "You're on stage from the moment you walk into the school," Smith said. " It's a job - a very serious job." Khera said performing the show is only part of the experience and it takes enormous amounts of energy for all that is involved. This year's company, organized in June, performed for more than 3,000 children in the fall semester and will perform for more than 10,000 before school year ends. The actors must dedicate as many as three days a week for the entire year for performances and rehearsals. "The touring company becomes your life ... because you have to give it your all," Todd said. "But you become ten times a better actor." Hetzel demands discipline and professionalism from the actors in the company, and compared the teamwork needed to that of a paramedic team. "There's a life at stake here," she said. "And the show is the life." The first touring company in 1989 performed for more then 13,000children. Their show, a piece written by Hetzel titled Lewis Carroll: Six Impossible Things To Do Before Breakfast, was later performed by more than 30 professional troupes around the world. 0

MUSIC REVIEW 'Nirvana Nevermind' blows the mind Heavy-metal sounds blast off with new CD Jenny Jenny Music Editor

Even if you 're not all too fond of thrash, Nirvana will blow your mind with its majorlabel debut, Nevermind. 1f you weren't on speed before the CD erupts into metallic oblivion at a pace faster than the speed of light, you certainly won 't need it42 minutes later. Nevermind blasts off with the single, Smells Like Teen Spirit, which is nothing at all like the trivial teen-age deodorant problems the title calls to mind.Spirit is a venomous, rocking track that occasionally breaks down to a smooth, clean riff. This engaging characteristic resurfaces later in the disc on In Bloom and Lithium. In Bloom features a powerful and urgent guitar, occasionally interrupted by a sinister, almost mellow groove. The harsh, metallic undertones never stray but persistently spur the song on. Lithium is a quick-tempo jam flavored with Sting-like vocals. Frivolous guitar licks and sprightly cymbals take over as the song breaks down before the intense reality of a vicious guitar shatters the lull.

ACTIVI~

A brick wall couldn't slow the momentum of Nevermind' s wild punk riots. Territorial Pissings would do Sid Vicious proud as Nirvana screams through the two minutes and 22 seconds of purely blistering thrash. The only lagging moments on the CD are intentionally induced by the band itself with Polly and the final track, Something In The Way. Polly is subdued and perplexing, featuring lyrics such as "Polly wants a cracker!fhink I should get off her first(fhink she wants some water/Do put out the blowtorch." A languid guitar backs this touching poem in an overly chaste arrangement that drones on for what seems like an eternity. Something In The Way is self-explanatory. The song nevertakes off. Maybe it's a soothing technique to help repair the dam-

age to your brain cells from Nirvana's scorching collection. Or maybe they fried all their brain cells, leaving behind this shallow, vapid effort as proof. Either way, Nevermind, a realistic and energetic first major offering from Nirvana, goes out with an uncharacteristic fizzle that doesn 't represent the rest of the disc well at all. 0

SPORTS From the cheap seats: a one-man peanut gallery

Despite record, Hull still best coach in CAC

Will Hinton Sports Editor '----------' Coaching is a profession that offers about as much job security as does, say, a oneIegged matador or a blind sniper. When a team is losing there is always finger pointing, and the head coach is usually the one at the other end of the index finger. Someone has to pay for a poor winloss record and nine times out of ten it is the coach who is blamed. The captain goes down with his ship. The coach goes down with the single-digit win column. Just ask the eight former NFL coaches who all had jobs in early December. Before any of this coach-lynching mentality stuff rears its bead at MSCD, let me remove any possibility of the faithful putting a noose around Bob Hull 's neck. The idea, as Mike Tyson would say, is ludicrous. Bob Hull is a quality coach and the best the CAC has to offer on the sidelines - in any sport- so don't Jet any ofthis sacrificial lamb nonsense cloud your judgment. I can assure you no one in the athletic department has. Hull came in and took a so-what program and placed it among the nation's NCAA Division II elite. So Roadrunner basketball is suffering through its worst year ever. In this case

worst has to be qualified. Worst year and worst team are two different things. Thanks to his success on the court, Hull has created a program that others strive to imitate. When you 're on top, everyone wants to bring you down, and that is what has happened to the 'Runners. Teams gear Lip to beatMSCD now that it is on the map. Before Hull got here the program couldn't find the road to superiority, let alone be found on the map that showed it where the road went. MSCD produced winners before, but it never faced the caliber of opponents and athletes it does now. The fact that Hull won the CAC regularseason championship a year ago after losing four starters and his sixth man was a miracle in itself and speaks volumes about his ability as a coach. But this year, not only did Hull lose four more starters, he had to replace them with players new to his system and Division II basketball. This year he has two freshmen and three transfers in his regular eight-man rotation. Now add the player losses to the equation. Larry Kent figured to play a prominent roleinthefrontcourtrotation,butwaslostto a chronic back problem before the season started. Then Kent's replacement up front, guardturned-forward T.J. Milan quit the team, leaving Hull with three frontcourt players. Make that two. Ken Turner, easily the

most productive Roadrunner in the paint, fractured an ankle and will likely miss the rest of the season. Plus, some of Hull's players are not responoing. Darin Dahl, a pure shooter, refused to shoot and was replaced by freshman Myron Simms in the starting lineup. And then there is the perplexing Dan Kennedy. At 6-9 and 230 pounds, Kennedy has the body and ability to dominate in the CAC. But he refuses to shoot. In 31 minutes against Regis, Kennedy scored six points against a shorter man who resembled Pavarotti more than a center. No one is more frustrated by the situation than Hull. When he talks about the season thus far, he gets aggravated by the fact that he knows what is wrong, but he can't do much about it. However, with all the negatives, he remains positive. The fact that Hull got Simms, an allstaterfromMontbelloHighSchoollastyear, shows his pull as a recruiter and the strength of the program. No knowledgeable basketball fans have questioned Hull yet, but before anyone does, just remember what he has done in the past and what he has to work with this year. Outside of Ralph Rivers, there are no stars (at least yet) on the team. Gone are the Shun Tillmans, Gene Edwardses and Adrian Hutts - players who spoiled the fans and wet their appetite for success. But,giveHullsometimetomoldthenew

players he has, particularly Simms andjuniors Turner and Calvin McCoy, and MSCD is going to find itself on top again. He returns four starters next year and you can count on one or two sol id recruits. Along with women's coach Darryl Smith, Hull gives MSCDthegreatestpairofcoaches in one sport in Colorado - at any level. Right here is where a reporter usually puts in something about giving a vote of confidence, but Hull is so firmly entrenched in MSCD athletics that it is unnecessary. If anything, he will leave to go on to greener pastures in Division I. We're lucky to have him. So don't jump off the bandwagon yet, 'cause with Hull at the.reins, you might just get run over on the road back to the top. 0

R.E. 'BOB' BURNS 574 S. BROADWAY DENVER, CO 80209 (303) 778-0560

Will Hinton Sports Editor The troubles continued for the MSCD men's basketball team at the Regis University Field House Jan. 11 as it suffered a heartbreaking 77-69 loss in its Colorado Athletic Conference opener. The loss dropped the Roadrunners' record to 5-10 and put them in a hole in the competitive CAC. The setback also guaranteed an end to MSCD's streak of three 20-win seasons. The game was close early on, but Regis pulled away in the last few minutes of the first half. "We had a good effort, but the five minutes before halftime really hurt us,'' said Head Coach Bob Hull. In that time span the game went from a 22-22 tie to a 12-point Regis lead. The 'Runners fought back slowly in the second half and tied the game at 61 with about five minutes left in the game. Once again, the last five minutes were unfriendly toMSCD.

Despite her injuries, Dalton led the way for MSCD with 15 points and three assists. Center Holly Roberts played well when she was on the court, scoring 16 points and pulling six rebounds, but she was in foul trouble all night and spent a lot of time on the .... bench.

rattle them. The slow, methodical Regis offense also affected MSCD, a team that likes to play the uptempo game. "They didn't play well enough to winbut they did," said Head Coach Darryl Smith, who cited the ' Runners inability to finish their open shots as Regis' best defense. Smith also said injuries played a role in the game. "We're not real healthy right now," he said. Guard Cindy Dalton played with a sore ankle and wrist and forward Natalie Dittmer sat out with a sprained ankle. Point guard and captain Stephanie Robinson was cleared

Robert Kinnard hit a three-pointer and was fouled by MSCD's Myron Simms. Kinnard converted a rare fourpoint play and gave Regis a seven-point lead with 3:28 remaining. A break-away dunk by Regis' Bruce Thomas signaled the end for the Roadrunners as the Rangers gained a 74-67 lead with l :30 left. Regis point guard Gary Walker found holes in the MSCD defense all night as he scored a game-high 20 points. Calvin McCoy played well for MSCD, also scoring 20 points, but it wasn ' t enough to make up for the poor play up front and the loss of power forward Ken Turner. Turner broke his ankle during the recent Florida road trip and will be out anywhere from four weeks to the rest of the season.

THE METROPOLITAN

Roberts MSCD rebounding queen Will Hinton Sports Editor Holly Roberts teaches at one of the most prestigious boarding schools in the nation. The institution is the MSCD School of Rebounding, and most of her students learn their lessons the hard way. She also doubles as an art supplier because she simply owns the paint. In this, her junior year, Roberts, 20, has already established herself as the most dominating player in MSCD history. Roberts is the school's all-time leading rebounder with 751, and she finished her sophomore campaign as the nation's second leading rebounder, a statistic that earned her honorable mention All-American honors. This year she is averaging 12.4 boards per game, a number that puts her among the country's elite once again. She has failed to lead the Roadrunners in rebounding only three times in MSCD's first 12 games. What keys her success on the boards? "Positioning," Roberts said. "Rebounding isn't about jumping,. it's about getting good position." To get that good position, Roberts uses her strength and 6-foot frame down low. When Roberts is not pulling errant shots off the iron, she is putting the ball in it. Her 13.7 scoring average is second on the team and she has been the game-high scorer a team-leading five times. Only 122 points shy of the school scoring record, Roberts should find herself at the top of the list by season's end. Once again, it is positioning that benefits Roberts' scoring numbers. She almost always receives the ball down low , on the right side, with her back to the basket. She should probably be paying rent for that spot on the floor because 80 to 90 percent of her shots originate there. "The right baseline is my favorite," she said. "I don't like the left side and I hate the middle, so I stay right." An invitation to the 1991 Olympic Festival basketball tryouts gave Roberts a new perspective on the game and helped her as a player. "There were a lot of Division I players

there and it was good to see how they play at that level." The Green Mountain High School graduate and accounting major admits she does have one weakness in her game.She wants to improve her overall defense and cut back on her overanxiousness in defending the basket. "I love to block shots, and that's probably a weakness," she said 'in reference to her occasional foul problems. Despite her dominance in the paint, few teams double-team her down low. Roberts said there are two reasons why. "I don't see any advantage in teams trying to double-team me because we have Cindy (Dalton) and others outside. If they key on me we go outside. If they key on the outside we can go to me and Noel (Braunschweiger)." Roberts also said a losing history at MSCD plays in the Roadrunners' favor. "As a team we don 't get much respect," she said. "Other teams think we 're just lucky." Roberts is quick to point out that luck has nothing to do with MSCD 's quick tum around from perennial loser to winner. Ask her the real reason and she answers with one word: "Darryl." Roberts said second-year Head Coach Darryl Smith has made the 'Runners a team instead of a bunch of individuals, and he has done wonders for their attitudes on the court. "We' re a lot more intense now, thanks to Darryl," Roberts said. National recognition and honors are nice, but Roberts only sets personal goals that will enhance the overall picture. To her, team goals are more important. "(Personal goals) are kind of in the back of my head, but I want20 wins and theCAC championship more than anything for myself. Last year our goal was a .500 record. Now we want to step up to the next level." She said senior captain Stephanie Robinson is also a motivator. "We want to do it for Steph," she said. With a winning attitude and the best start in MSCD history providing momentum, the team goals, like any missed shots, are defitl nitely within Roberts' reach.

from page 16 Braunschweiger collected 11 rebounds and Lisa Schamp came off the bench to contribute 15 points. Braunschweiger said Roberts' foul troubles inspired her play. "Yeah, Coach (Smith) tells us to step up

if Holly's on the bench," she said. "My role as a four (power forward) is usually to get Holly the ball. As a five (center), it changes to scoring and more rebounding." Regis was led by forward Anita Foskuhl who scored 22 points and grabbed eight rebounds in a losing effort. 0
