MSCD Student Government Assembly passed over two other candidates applying for an SGA post, giving a former student senator who broke into the Tivoli last February a second chance to serve students.

SGA ratified Michael Wempen as the vice president of Campus Communications Sept. 21.

According to Denver District Court

records, Wempen agreed to plead guilty April 4 in exchange for a deferred sentence in connection with the Tivoli incident Feb. 8. This means that Wempen must stay out of trouble for one year, or he will be found guilty of the charge against him. He was charged with second-degree burglary, a class four felony.

"I'm just an honest student," Wempen said. "I'm trying to inform students because I care about students. I care about students, and I care about if they're being treated fairly."

Wempen said the Tivoli break-in has

nothing to do with his role'.in Student Government now, and students Qofi't need to know about it 1he Metropolitan ran a story Feb. 11 about the break-in, but Wempen said that any past conflicts with the newspaper will not affect his ability to perfonn his duties.

As vice president of Campus Communicatiom, Wempen's job is to infonn students and the public about SGA affairs through the MSCD Office of Student Publications and other communication outlets. Wempen said he will tell reporters of news stories relating to SGA

~ver Wonder About Textbook Prices?

T

extbook prices are based on costs from the publisher plus retail margin. The margin allows the retailer to pay the costs of doing business, such as rent, utilities, employee salaries and benefits, insurance, and other overhead expenses.

et's say that the retail price of a book for your course is 540; the Auraria Book Center (ABC) paid the publisher 530. The difference between what was paid for the book and what it sold for is ~10 - or 25%(the margin). This 25% margin is considerably lower than the margin on most items you purchase as a consumer.

For instance, if that s40 book was a sweater purchased at a department store at the mall, the price would be at least s6o based on traditional retail margins, a minimum of 50%. This is the case for most department store items.

L

ne major difference between the sweater and the book, however, is that you cannot wear the sweater three days a week for sixteen weeks and then take it back to the store and get any money for it.

O

poks, on the other hano, continue to have value. At the end of the term, any title for which the Book Center has a signed textbook authorization from a professor for the next semester is worth half the new retail price at the buyback counter. If the title will not be used on this campus or if enough books have been purchased for the estimated enrollment of the class, the wholesaler (usually ebraska Book Company) buys the book at market value. Market value is established by the demand for that title on the national used book market and can run anywhere from no value to 30%of the new retail price. There are several quality grades of used books ava ilable from wholesalers. ABC buys only first quality used books. Book Center policy provides for payment of at least 25' for any book even if the national market indicates that it has no value.

B

any times a wholesale buyer will purchase a book only to find that a new edition is about to be released. Then the monetary value of the book is zero - the wholesaler loses. Those books are then donated to "Books for Asia" and other book donatio~ programs, making a big contribution to world literacy.

M

ooks are selected by professors based on personal judgement of information necessary for a course. For instance, if the professor believes the newest edition is the best one to learn from, that is the edition the Book Center is obligated to order.

B

A

nother important issue is the nature of our economy. In the early days of the publishing industry, publishing "houses" were mostly family owned and operated businesses. That has all changed. Now most of the companies, especially large textbook publishing firms, are owned by huge corporations which are controlled by stockholders. In order to attract investors, the return on investment for publishing must be competitive with other businesses.

T

he aware consumer should evaluate each book and keep those volumes which would be a valuable addition to a personal library. Other books should be sold for whatever you can get for them.

T

he Book Center is an auxiliary operation of the Auraria Higher Education Center (AHEC), an agency of the State of Colorado, and is not subsidized by taxpayer dollars. It must function as a viable business operation with the same direct and allocated expenses as any retail business. ABC serves as a support facility to the three academic institutions on this campus by providing books and supplies for students as well as making a substantial contribution to the Student Bond Fund. The staff of the Book Center are State employees, 75'*' of whom are students pursuing degrees on this campus. , -~

T

he Auraria Book Center is about as close to being a student co-op as possible. The ABC budget, along with budgets from all AHEC divisions, is reviewed by the Student Advisory Committee to the AHEC Board (SACAB). Also, a wide variety of issues regarding the Book Center are discussed with the Book Center Advisory Committee (BCAC), a subcommittee of SACAB. BCAC provides input, then reviews and endorses policy changes before they are presented to SACAB. Student representation includes Community College of Denver, Metropolitan State College of Denver and University of Colorado at Denver. Customers of the Book Center can feel confident that policy and budget decisions have been made with full input and support from these student advisory bodies.

ooks represent an investment. Once a book has been read or used as a learning tool, the owner has gained in intellect something that will stay long after the book has been read and perhaps sold ... the investment one makes in his or her own mind is immeasurable.

B

hy does the publisher charge 540 or more for a book when it's just some paper and ink? In addition to that paper and ink, there are lots of invisible expenses involved in the production of the textbook: manuscript acquisition, editing, promotion to the academic community, copyright requirements, and other production expenses such as proofreading, which is more costly when a technical book must be proofread by a Ph.D. to ensure accuracy.

New law tough on abusers Domestic violence focus of protest

Ed Kraus I'm glad that people are _Ti_h_e_M_e_ffi--,"-- ,.,.ifi,...'O_n_ _ _ _ finally talcing it seriously.

0 01 ,., It has done untold damage

.)...

The O.J. Simpson case has ripped the issue of domestic violence out of the closet and thrown it into the national spotlight.

Once considered a family matter, spousal abuse now receives the attention the disease AIDS garnered when Magic Johnson announced that he was HIV positive.

Despite the recent increase in public awareness, the prosecution and prevention of domestic violence remains an uphill struggle.

But Colorado tackled the problem before O.J. drove his white.Bronco through the living rooms of America. State legislators passed a law last session that opened the door for a batterer's history ofvioJenee against the victim to be considered as evidence.

State Sen. Jana Wells Mendez, D-Boulder, co-sponsored the bill.

"I think it's time we acted strongly about it," Mendez said in a recent interview. "I think it has been a horrible black eye on our society for too many years.

on the spouses as well as the children that watch it."

The new law talces aim at repeat offenders. But in at least one case it missed its mark, said Sharon E. Allison Denver deputy district attorney. _ "It still leaves it up to the judge; for the judge to exercise his or her discretion in. terms of whether not or the information can come in," she said.

Allison said the facts in a recent case were tailor made for the new Jaw, but the judge ruled differently.

"This is a woman who had her nose broken by this man, had her tires slashed by this guy, and whose car had been 'keJed' by him," Allison said . "She's been threatened and she has had to move four times. Now he's smashed her car again and he's threatening her again.

Shouldn't the jury hear about this nonsense that has gone on for nine months preceding this event?

see VIOLENCE page 7

Ed Kraus The Metropolitan Gov. Roy Romer joined more than 200 women and men who demonstrated against domestic violence at the Capitol Sept. 30, where he signed a proclamation declaring October Domestic Violence Awareness Month.

The Colorado Domestic Violence Coalition sponsored the "clothesline project" that personalized the statistics with T-shirts owned by victims or made by survivors.

A drum banged every 15 seconds, a somber reminder of the frequency of abuse against women in America. There were tears shed for those who died and hope for others who survived. T-shirts served as a testimony to the "dirty little secret" now awash in the public' s consciousness.

Provost search continues f'_

Donna Hickey Staff Writer The committee charged with finding a new provost/vice president for Academic Affairs has failed to find the right "fit" for the college, said MSCD President Sheila Kaplan.

Kaplan said the search will be reopened within the next month and projected that July 1995 was a target date for hiring a provost.

In an E-mail memo to the college community, Kaplan said the candidates were qualified but did not "fit" MSCD. Dr. Joan Foster, the interim provost and vice president for Academic Affairs, said that her position is responsible for making personnel and budget decisions forMSCD. With the cooperation of the deans, chairs and faculty this office is responsible for all instructional activities which are the heart of the college, Foster said.

The administration should help the faculty in teaching Foster added.

For fiscal year 1993-94, the expenditures for the provost search were $32,198, according to the MSCD budget office.

The search committee did identify three possible candidates who visited the

campus recently.

Alfred Wayne Penn, one of the candidates who visited MSCD this summer, has been vice president of Academic Affairs at Sangamon State University in Springfield, Ill., since 1989.

"I think they were all qualified but that Penn was the most qualified," said Megan Reyes Student Government Assembly president.

"I think (Penn) wasn't chosen because he was a white male. He wasn't the ideal fit. On a scale from 1 to 10, he was a six or a seven," Reyes said.

Reyes was one of three students that served on the search committee: the other students were Mark Shannon, Chief Justice of MSCD SGA, and Sean Tonner, a student senator.

Reyes said the college was looking for someone who could walk into an urban four-year-college serving 17,000 students from diverse backgrounds. She said that although a research background was not important, it would have to be someone experienced who could step in and do the job without training.

Penn visited the campus and said that he was impressed with MSCD's ability to cope with severe budget constraints.

Other candidates were also qualified

enough that MSCD paid for them to visit the campus too, but were not qualified enough to hire either.

Virginia Purtle, dean of the College of Foster Social Science d a n Professional Studies at Christopher Newport University, also visited MSCD. When asked about her interview with Kaplan she said, "I'd rather not say anything."

Raymond Rodrigues, was the third candidate and is vice-president for Academic Affairs at North Adams State College in North Adams, Mass. He has contributed to 12 different academic publications on issues of diversity. Rodrigues was not available for comment.

Reyes said that the timing wasn't right. The search committee was started late and by the time the committee had located the really outstanding candidates, they had already taken jobs.

Incidents.

Among those attending was Ruth Aponte, executive director of Colorado Women's Agenda, and a UCO graduate student.

"Part of ll_lY involvement was professional, because¡of my position," she said.

"Another reason was personal - I know firsthand the impact of sexual abuse."

Aponte said going public with that part of her past was difficult but necessary.

"If we don't step forward, who will?" she asked . "It's an important opportunity for women to get together and to know that they are not alone in this.

"I want to stress that we view these women as survivors, not victims," she added.

Fifty-three Coloradans have died this year in domestic violence incidents, including suicide and murder, the coalition reported.

The leading cause of severe injury to American women aged 18-44 is domestic violence, more than car accidents and muggings combined, said the American Medical Association.

SGA defends decision ~-

WEMPEN from page 1 and place advertisements in the paper to get students more involved in Student Government.

"I fully well think that I am the most qualified for the job - hands down," Wempen said. "I have a public relations emphasis in journalism. I will be writing, and that's what (the job) pertains to, getting the students involved and informing students. I can do that. It has nothing else to do with my life."

According to Amy Haimerl, chairwoman of the search committee that interviewed the candidates, there were four finalists to replace Maria Rodriguez, the elected officer who resigned: Matthew Johnson, Kristine Neale, Richard Coy and Wempen. Johnson was voted in but later resigned because of scheduling conflicts.

The committee, made up of Haimerl, Mark Shannon and Brooke McMaken, then recommended Wempen over Neale and Coy. Shannon, SGA chief justice, said Kristine Neale was as qualified as Johnson and Wempen, but Wempen's experience in government won him the position.

"We didn't feel that it would be appropriate to the students to put someone less qualified in that position since it is being paid for by student fees," Haimerl said.

cerned about Wempen's past record, she said Wempen was sincere about helping students.

"I felt with two qualified candidates we should go with Wempen someone who doesn't have a past record," Haimerl explained. "(But) we feel that Michael is ready to go forward and an incident such as (the breakin) will not happen again."

Wempen was arrested Feb. 8 with two others on a charge of second-degree burglary at the Tivoli before it became the new Student Union. According to an Auraria Public Safety report, Wempen parked his truck on the north side of the Tivoli with the engine running and the tailgate down.

The APS report said a television was removed from an unlocked control room and placed on a nearby bar. After police spotted Wempen, he fled from the building with the officers in pursuit. Once outside, Wempen gave himself up.

Wempen said he was drunk at the time. He added that nothing was damaged, but the APS report stated that damages totaled $65.

Legal system often fails victims VIOLENCE from page 3

"The jury is probably not going to think it's such a big deal if somebody said, 'I'm gonna get you,"' Allison said.

"Wouldn't it be helpful if the jury knew that he had broken her nose and done all those other things? It's still discretionary whether or not these prior incidents of bad conduct can be introduced, and the judge refused to let them in. That's very frustrating." Sometimes the biggest supporter of the accused is the victim. Wavering testimony or complete denial are not uncommon.

"The main problem is a lack of victim cooperation," said Marley Mcclintock, a Denver deputy district attorney. "It's a very big problem for us.

Many times we take a case to trial without a victim at all if she is refusing to· testify or we take a case to trial where the victim js recanting."

In domestic violence cases, the government, not the victim, is responsible for pressing charges, said Linda Ferry, pro-

gram administrator for the domestic vio-

1ence unit for the City and County of Denver. " We intervene with victims of domestic violence, usually the day after the arrest," she said in a recent interview.

"We try to help the victims understand the process and give them support."

Police officers often take photographs of the victim and are trained to carefully record statements from everyone at the scene of the crime, Ferry said. That information may be needed to counter testimony of a recanting victim.

Expert witnesses may also be called to explain to the jury why some casualties of spousal abuse change their stories and protect their oppressor, she added.

Dora Lee Larson, executive director of the private, non-profit group Project Safeguard, said problems prosecuting batterers extend beyond the laws and the witnesses. Her organization provides emergency legal advocacy, crisis intervention, and court support for battered women.

"The most problematic area is with the judges and juries," Larson said in a recent interview. "There still seems to be a few judges remaining who don't quite get the issue and who still subtly partici-

7he main problem/$ a lack of victim cooperation•.

- Marley McCllntock

pate in victim blaming. I think they could stand some training to get them on the same page as the rest of us."

Denver attorney Patrick Zakis disagreed with Larson' s assessment. As a contract public defender, he has represent-

ed many people accused of domestic violence. He said the judges are usually very efficient and knowledgeable about new laws.

"They know they can be in the paper at any time," Zakis said. "They are just people and they want to stay educated anyway. You have to stay current with the law. They wiJl track that very closely."

Zakis acknowledged that victim's advocates are a valuable asset but said that they are part of the overall problem.

"The victims' advocates are not only involved with advocating for the victim," said Zakis. "They ' re involved in how those involved in the day-to-day struggle continue to look for answers." But one basic question always seems to surface.

"The question that is most difficult for people to understand is 'why women stay in an abusive relationship?"' Larson said . "It 's not an issue of why women stay, it's an issue of why people are still abusive."

What would you call someone who raped and murdered four U.S. church women in El Salvador in 1980? How about those who massacred six Jesuits, their housekeeper and her daughter? What would you call those who carried out the El Mozote massacre in El Salvador where over 900 peasants were slaughtered and thrown into mass graves?

You and I might call them murderers, blood thirsty brutes or inhuman terrorists.

But what does Rep. Schaefer call the perpetrators of the above atrocities along with many other human rights abusers who have all graduated from the U.S. Army's School of the Americas located at Ft. Benning, Georgia? Schaefer calls them "bad apples" just that bad apples, as if those responsible for decades of Latin America's worst human rights violations were somehow equal to an elementary school prankster dipping Mary

Lou's pigtails into an inkwell.

The U.S. Army's SOA has trained over 56,000 Latin American soldiers.

Other SOA graduates include Manuel Noriega, ex-dictator of Panama, now serving 40 years for drug trafficking, Humberto Regaldo of Honduras who as chief of staff was linked to Colombian drug dealers, and Hugo Banzer Suarez the Bolivian president who in the 1970s crushed dissident clerics.

Besides dismissing the above actions as merely bad apples, Rep. Schaefer along with Mcinnis and Hefley recently voted in support of the millions of dollars necessary to keep the SOA running.

The U.S. Army's SOA must be closed. It is a waste of tax payers money. Although those who support SOA often point to the fact that SOA offers courses dealing with human rights, professors who have taught at the school admit that courses on democracy and human

rights are seen as a joke, merely lip service and not taken seriously by the soldiers who attend them .

Whether it is out of ignorance, some sort of cold-war nostalgia or merely a cold heart that causes Schaefer to shrug off the deeds of the Western Hemisphere's worst human rights abusers we'll never know, but we do know that the SOA is a shame and an embarrassment to a country claiming to be a beacon of freedom and democracy for the rest of the globe.

Those who commit these acts, like the assassination of ArchBishop Romero, are not merely bad apples. But they are our responsibility, for our taxes trained them and made them possible. We must demand that all members of Congress vote to close down the "School of Assassins."

Tom Mestnlk Co-Director Denver Justice and Peace Committee

Gays are rarely the molesters There is a public relations campaign being waged against gay rights, but there is a lack of scientific evidence to support claims that homosexuality is undesirable. One self-described born-again Christian, Dr. Paul Cameron, has filled the void by publishing a series of pamphlets which are quoted regularly by groups opposing gay rights.

In a study of others' research data documented in a pamphlet and a nearly identical report, Cameron quoted statistics that find the ratio of female to male victims of molestation to be 2-to-1. He then assumes all molestations of boys (33 percent) are by homosexuals, the vast majority of pedophiles being male.

Quoting four studies as fo the rate of child molesters offending against girls and boys, he subtracts 1O percent from the heterosexual molestation as a "bisexual adjustment."

Quoting two studies indicating a four percent bisexual or homosexual rate, he concludes that, "The four percent of the population which is

bisexual or homosexual accounts for between 40 to 46 percent of the sexual molestations ... at least 16 times more apt to molest than their heterosexual peers" (Psychological Reports, 1985, 57).

But according to Freund and Watson's study of pedophiles, "The possibility that there is no ... relationship whatsoever between pedophillic gender preference and (heterosexuality or homosexuality) cannot be excluded" (emphasis added) (The Journal of Sex and Marital Therapy, Spring, 1992).

According to Jenny, Roesler and Poyer, "(Pedophiles) who offend against toddlers or young children are unlikely to discriminate between boys or girls."

Jenny, Roesler and Poyer conducted a review of medical records of all children evaluated for sexual abuse from July 1, 1991 through June 30, 1992 in a child sexual abuse clinic at a regional children's hospital. "It was standard practice to inquire ... if the alleged abuser ... lived a homosexual lifestyle." Their

study found that of 269 cases only one child (female) was allegedly assaulted by a stranger. "The percentage of girls alleged to have been molested by ... a lesbian was 0.4 percent. There was one male child potentially offended against by a homosexual male (two percent)" (Pediatrics, July, 1994).

The Denver Post quotes Dr. Carole Jenny: "My worry is people will see (the study) as a political statement and in fact, ifs not. What we see is most of the kids brought in are abused by family members and most of the family members are heterosexual."

In regards to the study, the author of Amendment 2, Kevin Tebedo said, ''There's a high political motivation to drive a wedge of confusion into what (the molesters) sexual orientation might be" (The Denver Post, July 12, 1994).

Mr. Tebedo, I couldn't agree more, but it's Dr. Cameron who's playing politics.

Three cheers for MSCD's education department ,,

Three cheers for MSCD's education department! It's netted part of a $5 million National Science Foundation grant to help fund redesigning the way science and math teachers are taught to teach. But wait! As with that shiny set of Ginsu knives - accept no substitutes - there's morel MSCD's Marilyn Taylor, chair of the secondary education department, and President Sheila Kaplan have a better plan. Instead of using their cut of these funds as intended, they're going to siphon them off into Kaplan's favorite, resume-padding politically correct program: So-called "diversity."

Taylor, quoted in a June 20 Rocky Mountain News story, says that MSCD is going to spend the money on 'creating a culture-friendly and genderfriendly classroom' and to "strive to recruit and retain minority st1,Jdents" in the education program.

Now, if you're like me - caffeinated into a state of vague awareness you're probably asking yourself the same question I am: What the heck's any of this noise got to do with teaching teachers to teach math and science?

We all know that comparatively, U.S. public school students score abysmally low in math and science.

You can't deny there's something seriously amiss when U.S. students' test scores perennially rank below those of students in places like Brazil.

Teachers are typically quick to point the finger at student attitude and

parent apathy. School administrators use these stats as justification to skulk about rapping at taxpayers' doors and croaking like malevolent carrion eaters for more money. Parents are just confused.

Sure, toctay's public school ·students are not generally the B~av and Wally or even Marsha and Greg.

Many are coming to school hungry, stressed, drugged, and a clear and present danger. So, a non-Anglo teacher with the same old lousy" training is somehow going to cope better?

That's what Kaplan and Taylor are telling us with their decision to sidetrack the NSF funding into their ethereal "diversity'' program.

Of course, bitter experience shows that feeding the monster more green is not necessarily the answer. And most parents, working so hard just to keep a roof overhead, are without the physical, emotional and economic resources to educate their children every night. But isn't that what we pay teachers for?

Which brings us back to the fact that there's something wrong with the way teachers teach. According to the News story, NSF intends for these funds "to revise the methods used to prepare Colorado's future math and science teachers." Ifs a real headscratcher how Kaplan and Taylor, two highly educated educators themselves, managed to read anything about diversity into this directive. But I guess if you squinted real hard in real-

ly poor light you could probably find support for the establishment of a Jewish homeland in Germany within the pages of Hitler's Mein Kampf.

If you really squint, you can see how teaching non-Anglo future teachers with the same-old-same-old, will improve on anything save these two administrator's careers.

Now, I admit, due to my own public-education-designed and installed on-board math-avoidance software, my contact with MSCD math and science education majors has been limited. But I've had many a chilling encounter with future English teachers.

In an upper division, educationdirected children's (English) literature course, many of my education major classmates not only couldn't identify a theme in kid's stories (and we ain't talking Kafka here), some of them didn't even know what a theme was.

And lefs talk "gender friendly."

Out of 45 students in that classroom, a grand total of four were men, and two of these weren't education majors.

Admittedly, the overwhelming majority was whitebread. But, despite the patently ridiculous campaign to paint MSCD as a hotbed of racial prejudice and segregation, this most likely reflects nothing more sinister than local and campus racial population make-up.

I'd guess that the racial and gender make-up of math and science education courses are similar to that

children's lit. class. I'd also bet this semester's financial aid check that graduates of these programs leave MSCD with similar educational handicaps. But graduating future teachers ignorant of the most basic tenets of education is apparently of little concern to Kaplan and Taylor.

The NSF funds are intended to repair the current, flawed methods of educating future math and science teachers - all of them, regardless of race, ethnicity or gender. Which is a good plan. Moreover, what is developed there, applied across the boards, could give us twice the bang for our buck. But Kaplan and Taylor are much smarter than the rocket scientists at NSF. Instead, they'll drop this manna from D.C. down the educational rat hole of this season's most haute accessory - diversity. It's all the rage, darling.

Still, being a Eurocentric patriarchal repressor myself, perhaps I just don't get it. Maybe we shouldn't be trying to fix our lousy teacher training system, and should be concentrating instead on developing diversity among teaching majors. That way, all education majors, regardless-of-personalstates-of-hyphenation, can graduate ignorant and hopelessly underqualified to deal with teaching in the public schools.

Besides, fair is fair. After all, why should only white men get to leave MSCD stupid?

A poster the Angels distributed all over Capitol Hill asks for help finding this man who raped a juvenile and cut the victim with a knife.

The Angels make their presence known as they "secure" a comer on Colfax Avenu fighting philosophy. From left to right are The Undertaker, Uttlefoot, Wolverine and

Sebastian Metz, International coordinator for the Guardian Angels, on the phone organizing with other chapters.

The Guardian Angels was foiinded on Feb. 13, 1979, by a man named Curtis Sliwa. Trred of being victimized by crime running rampant in his neighborhood, he put together a citizen's patrol group - since heralded as the Magnificent 13 - to patrol the New York subway system.

When the Magnificent 13 first started their crime-fighting careers, they were not well-received by the local police, says Taz, a trainer for the local chapter of Guardian Angels.

In order to gain more public support, they performed community service, such as trash pick-up and graffiti

paint-out.

"They did any kind of community service they could possibly do in order to show their sincerity as a volunteer group," Taz says.

Taz is the code name that the trainer goes by. As all of the Angels have one. A 34-year-old father of four, he has been a Denver resident all of his life.

The base of Denver operations the Angels call it Ground Zero - is a modest facility on Colfax Avenue near Downing Street. The walls are adorned with red berets and newspaper clippings that record the triumphs of

the Guardian Angels in their pursuit of evildoers. While Taz speaks, there is the occasional squawk of a two-way radio, which seems to be the most expensive thing in the office.

"Everything you see, including the office space itself, is donated," Taz says.

"No one gets paid. Everyone is here on a volunteer basis only."

The Guardian Angels began the Denver recruitment process in December 1993 and now has more than 175 active members.

"We have patrols seven nights a week, usually at 7 or 10 p.m., although we sometimes have marathon patrols - 6 to 8 hours long - depending on available staff," Taz says. "Since we are all volunteers, we have to work around each other's schedules."

Zodiac, a young woman who is known as a 24-7, or a full-time Angel, is an MSCD history major and a philosophy minor. Her uniform seems to betray her

large eyes and sweet smile.

"I've admired the group since I first heard about them, when I was 10 years old," she says.

"I saw Curtis Sliwa on TV, and I decided that was what I wanted to be - a Guardian Angel."

It's Friday night. I get to Ground Zero a little nervous and a lot excited. I walk through the front door and a large, younglooking man frisks me.

"No weapons of any kind are allowed," Taz says. In fact, as I look around, I notice the only things any of them are carrying are pens, paper, small flashlights and brochures.

"Angels, line up!" Taz shouts before the night's patrol.

Everyone files outside for the pa~ol and then is frisked again, just to be sure.

Things are pretty quiet until we come upon three drunk men sitting in the alcove of an abandoned apartment building. Taz radios to Ground Zero to apprise them_of

"We have a very good rapport with the police," Taz says. And, although most of the few police I asked declined to comment, one said he wished more Angels were out there.

Although this summer has shown a decrease in crimes reported in Denver, police precincts in the area patrolled by the Angels have reported a 17 percent decrease over the previous summer, which is markedly greater than areas not patrolled by the Angels, according to the Denver Police Department Monthly District Report.

There are 48 chapters of the Guardian Angels in the United States, not to mention chapters in other countries, such as Russia, Sweden, Japan and Italy. More than 5,000 Angels live worldwide.

Film Fest reels out flicks from far and near ~

Coming to a theatre near you: 17th Denver International Film Festival celebrates its birthday at the Tivoli The 17th Annual Denver International Film Festival opens Oct. 13 at the AMC Tivoli 12 Theatres. Advanced ticket purchases are recommended. Tickets are available at the Ticket Office on the main floor of the Tivoli Student Union.

While lacking the charms of studio lighting and million-dollar action scenes, "Red" manages to be engaging - as engaging as a film with subtitles can be.

"Red" is the final part of Kieslowski's "Three Colors Trilogy," which represent the

Irene Jacob In "Red," a French fllm directed by Poland's Krystof Kleslowskl. "Red" Is the third fllm In his movie trilogy named a('.t~r the colors of the French flag, symbolizing liberty, equality and frate"rnlty.

the recently freed Eastern Europe.

The plot of " Red" thickens when Valentine, a French model, hits a pregnant Gennan shepherd and attempts to return the wounded canine to her owner, a reclusive and seemingly heartles.5 old man (Jean-Louis Trintignant), whom Kieslowski calls "the judge." Mystified by his indifference to his dog's ordeal, Valentine is intent on learning more about her grinch-like acquaintance. In her prying she discovers he is spying on his neighbors through tapped telephone lines.

Through the telephone dialogues, Kieslowski portrays the darker nuances in the private lives of those who appear outwardly ordinary. He disturbs his audience with many details of his neighbors depravities.

The judge's spying in itself is but one of the many questions of personal freedom Kieslowski poses to his audience. The end of "Red" leaves the viewer reeling from its surprising twist while forcing us to ponder the consequences of exercising our own freedom when it means limiting the hberties of our neighbors.

-J~ Stephenson

EXILE RED To those of us used to Hollywood glitz and glamour, Krzysztof Kieslowski's "Red" is about as visually appealing as an overstripped salt quany.

These symbolize liberty, equality and fraternity. As a Polish filmmaker, Kieslowski illuminates the subject of liberty in '~Red" with the fresh thoughtfulnes.5 of an inhabitant of

"Exile" is a movie that reverts to the true art-house form of cinema. In recent years, many art cinemas have evolved into foreign-film cinemas, and with the mainstreaming of so many of these films, such as

''Howard's End," it is a relief to see someone finally come back with something neo-realistic.

Ne~realistic is definitely the correct term for this piece. It not only refuses to define answers for dilemmas in the film, it also refuses even to suggest solutions.

"Exile" is Paul Cox's adaptation of the novel "Priest Island" by E.L. Grant Watson.

It is the story of a young man, Peter, exiled from the mainland because he stole sheep to secure the dowry for the woman he loved.

The film begins by exploring the loss of definition between reality and fantasy as experienced by Peter because of his solitude.

But one day a girl, Mary, from the mainland rows out to join Peter. Compelled by loneliness and romantic notions of the "outlaw," she decides that it is Peter with whom she wants to share her life. In their isolation, an uncertain relationship develops, but with the birth of their child, Mary wants their marriage sanctioned and their child baptized. This is not what Peter wants.

Cox is a well-known Australian art-film director. He first received international attention in 1981 for his film ''Lonely Hearts," and in 1987 he received critical acclaim for his documentary ''Vincent," which explored Van Gogh's life through his letters. "Exile" is another piece sure to receive international praise for its exploration of isolation.

But with all of Cox's films you need a

- Tarantino's newest bloodletter a masterpiece Robyn Schwartz Features Editor Quentin Tarantino's "Pulp Fiction" is the bloodiest film you'll ever laugh at. Tarantino maintains a fascination with gangsters, street violence, drug culture, and all the personal details ~f the ~haracters involved.

John Travolta's perfonnance is classic and no doubt integral to this film's gleaning of the Best Picture award at the 1994 Cannes Film Festival. Travolta cultivates the audience's affection for cold-blooded hit man Vincent Vega.

Vincent is a laid-back, cool, loyal and somewhat buml?Iing narcotics connoisseur. It's hard not to smile at the provocative coffee talk between Vincent and his partner-incrime, Jules Winnfield (Samuel L Jackson), a holier-than-thou, philosophical, streetwise sophi.Sticate.

This Oscar-and-Fe~-oo-dope couple alone is enouib to~ ttw film

as violently dark comedy just by the weight of the dialogue between them.

Jules is more than heartless; he rubs his victims' noses in the scent of their own deaths before killing them, accompanied by a dash of displaced evangelism.

Jules ranges from evil to intellectual to anal retentive to the epitome of the examined life.

Jackson's performance is untouchable.

Just as I'm ready to leave to escape the gore, I am riveted by Christopher Walken talking death and anal cavities in a deadpan voice to a 7-year-old boy.

to manipµlate the plot and to enrich the characters. He enhances this ultrarealism with graphic violence.

The interwoven plot concept is similar to, although simpler, better manipulated and more manageable than Robert Altman's epic L.A. drama "Short Cuts." The overall mood of ''Pulp Fiction" is a lot lighter, despite brutal murders and professional disrespect for human life. It's truly a comedy.

This film is a crown jewel of acting, direction and screenwriting. It's slightly less violent than "Reservoir Dogs" and much less Walken's character is merely a John Travolta pla~s an endearing villain/hero in "Pulp Fiction." trite than ''True Romance,v two of brilliant transition into the story Tarantino's earlier films.

After a shaky start to the season, things are looking up for the MSCD men's soccer team.

Coming off their worst loss of the season to the University of Denver (8-0), the Roadrunners put together a two-game winning streak, defeating Southern Colorado 2-1 and Northern Arizona 4-1 before falling to Colorado School of Mines 3-2 on Tuesday.

"The team is progressing with every game," MSCD forward Wade Schaefer said. "We're getting to play a little better."

Tuesday's matchup against Mines was close throughout. MSCD opened the scoring when Mazen Kayali notched his second goal of the season just 5:12 into the game. After Mines tied it up on a goal from Dan Huber at the 19:20 mark, the Roadrunners regained the lead at the 37:00 mark when Aldo Castillo scored his second goal of the season in just four games on a penalty kick.

Mines tied the game at the 55:02 mark on a goal from Dan Huber, then scored the winning goal at 69:22 when Reinhold Huber scored on a header off a pass from Jason Marvin, giving Mines the lead for good at 3-2.

"We just missed four chances to score," Castillo said. "We didn' t finisb., and it cost us today."

In . the two games against USC and Northern Arizona, the Roadrunners tripled their win total - from 1 to 3 - and tripled their goal total - from 3 to 9 - a definite sign that things are looking up for MSCD. " (The Northern Arizona win) was the high point of our season,'' MSCD coach Al Ashton said. "First of all,.

we won two games in a row. And we had two goals called back. It could have been 6-1."

Against Northern Arizona, Bill Kawamura opened the scoring at the 34:34 mark with a goal assisted by Maher Kayali. Neither team struck again until the second half, when Castillo scored his first goal of the season at the 50:5_0 mark.

The Roadrunners got some additional insurance when Wade Schaefer scored his team-leading third goal of the season at 73:43, then Jason Cardamone finished MSCD' s scoring with his first goal of the year at the 84:01 mark.

Spencer Sivey scored Northern Arizona's only goal at the 85:04 mark, rounding out the game's scoring. · Thursday's contest against USC saw MSCD lead from beginning to end, as Bill Kawamura opened the scoring with a header just 7:23 into the game.

The score stayed 1-0 until the 50:53 mark, when Mazen Kayali scored on a chip shot over goalkeeper Chris Miller's head. USC picked up their only goal at the 68:39 mark, when Doug Lundin scored on a free kick.

MSCD outshot USC 23-14 in the win, including a 13-6 advantage in the opening half.

The Roadrunners resume their season this weekend with three games in three days, all on the road. " It's going to be tough,'' Schaefer said. "But we'll take it one game at a time and one win at a time, and we should come back with three wins."
