UCD Elections

Cole, Seddon Re-Elected

by Jim Bailey AS$1sta11t Editor, The Metropolitan

Incumbents Ken Cole and Lori Seddon are the official winners of the UCO Student Government elections held last week-by a narrow margin of 18 votes.

The final results are: Cole and Sed­don, 110 votes; Francis Sgarlatti and Mostafa Gowhari, 92 votes; Robert Price and Shaun Starbuck, 37 votes; Margo Moore and Dan Sallis, 17 votes.

However, Sgarlatti and Gowhari are petitioning for a run-off election, because 24 votes are missing from the 280 students casting votes.

The ASUCD election code states that for a run-off election, you need a tie vote. But, with the 24 votes miM­ing, Sgarlatti believes that the possibility of a tie is being ignored.

"There's a principle being ~ here," Sgarlatti said. "The j~dicial board voted today t<:> accept the elec­tion vote as is, according to the final count. This discounts the 24 votes missing .• and the ~ibility of a tie."

"The Judicial board voted to­day to accept the election vote as ia, according to the final count. Thia ditcounta the 2 4 votes mils­ing, and the possibility of a tie. "

- Francis Sgarlatti

Sgarlatti says that she wants to know exactly why the judicial board won't hold a run-off.

"I've been in Student Government for two years now, and there has never been this problem before," she said.

ASUCD President Ken Cole says -that he sta.nds oby the judicial board vote, and that the whole election was adequately handled by t~ judicial board.

According to Cole, the mmiilg_ votes can be attributed to the people who signed up to vote, but failed to vote for any presideJ:!tial candidates.

"It's sort of an apathy vote," Cole said.

Sgarlatti is circulating a petition for submission to the judicial board, to try to get student support for a run­off election.

"For~unately, otheP. students are helping me with this,'' she said. "I think some students are actually con­cerned about the 24 missing votes." 0

'Son of 1360'

, Efficiency Bill Passes

by Carson Reed Editor, The Metropolitan

Pending approval by the Governor, a study of the administrative struc­ture of higher education in Colorado is about to get under way.

Both the House and the Senate gave final approval to a neutered version of the 1360 bill, which had originally proposed a radical reorganization of the entire higher education system in Colorado. The bill now authorizes a study of the need for reorganization and the most effective methods of keeping the system "within the limits of state resources." The study is estimated to cost around $20,000.

The g~al is to find ways to trim the amount of money currently going into higher education-roughly 1/4 of the stat·~'-s budget-by increasing the "efficiency," . and "accountability" through a review of the "role and mission and programs" of state schools.

''What we've done by putting this out front is to "'Y 'O.K., folks, we want some answers.,,.

. - Rep. Paul Schauer

A clause which would have frozen capital construction, enrollment levels, an~ funding for the schools has been deleted from the final bill, bringing a sigh of relief from school administrators.

Representative Paul Schauer, who led the reorganization drive, says that he is pleased the bill passed, even in . its diluted form.

"I would like to have moved on restructuring right away," Schauer said, "but this is a start.''

Schauer said he felt that the bill is a necessary beginning of the process .

"Sometimes you've got to shock (the legislature) just to get them mov­ing," he said. "What we've done by putting this out front is to say 'O.K., folks, we want some answers."

The "reorganization committee" that will conduct the study is made up of three appointees from the Speaker of.the House, three from the President of the Senate, two from the G"overnor, the Chairman of the Colorado Commission on Higher Education. 0

The Metropolitan Leatherman reflects the trials and On the surface Steve Leather- aspirations of a newly-franchised

group of Americans in a new world, anxious to retire the infirm and obsolete. It is not the age of our leaders that bothers Leatherman. It's the oldness of their ideas,. the stark

man seems pretty av~rage- a 37-year-old guy with a mortgage, three kids, and a station wagon that breaks down. Born and raised in Denver, Leatherman epitomizes the "baby boom" generation. He graduated from CU in '69, led an infantry platoon in Vietnam, went

for th~ dilemma we're in· as anybody ... that's because they pander to every special interest group that comes along."

The Medicare system, he notes, is structurally bankrupt. "We know now that we're going to be facing an international loan crisis, that we are going to be facing a Social Security crisis. We know now that we're either gonna have a world-wide recession or hyper-inflation irt this country in the next two or three years because of the deficits that are already bere. Even if the budget were balanced today, he says, "we'·ve still got the effects of what we've already done."

Leatherman warns that time is running short: "You can't send a Senator back to Washington and say 'Well, we'll give him a couple of years to find out what the economy is about,' because the problems are so immediate. We don't have time for on-the-job-training (in Congress). By 1985, it's going to be obvious that we've got some very seriQtis economic problems in this country."

Leatherman says he has a special feel for national defense issues. He's neither a dove nor a hawk, though he believes if there's nothing worth dy-

. ing for, there's nothing worth living for.

On the subject of nukes, he's brief and to the point. "The whole argu­ment is one of common sense," he says. "Is there such a thing as a winn­able nuclear war? I say absolutely not, under any cir­cumstances ... zero. Do we need first strike weapons, tactical weapons on _ the battlefield? Pershing Twos in Europe? No ... You don't have to be a religious fanatic, you don't have to be an anti-nuke fanatic. You can be a general in the Air Force . . . common sense dictates we've gone too far."

Vietnam, in Leatherman's view, was a tragic mistake. "Like most veterans," he says, "I was perturbed with a lot of things with respect to that war, and I got actively involved in trying to get Nixon unelected. I worked for George McGovern's cam­paign ... primarily motivated by what was, in fact, a pretty good hatred of Nixon, who was elected in '68 to end the war. There were some 20,000 (Americans) killed in Vietnam after he was elected."

, "Congress is as much responsible for the dilemma that we're in as anybody ... that's because they pander to ev·ery special interest group that comes along. "

"I saw first hand how one misguided war that was never meant to occur ruined the idealism and the produc­tivity of an entire generation. "

"Even if the budget were balanced today, we've still got the effects of what we've already done."

"was an emotional triggering from hearing the drums of war beat. I feel very concerned that if we just let th~ situation go as it is now, that we're gonna end up in another jungle war in Central America . . . we'll end up there because we are preparing for it right now. I saw first hand how one misguided war that was never meant to occur ruined the idealism and the productivity of an entire generation."

What would have happened, Leatherman wonders, had Vietnam never taken place? "If you could have seen or felt that group of people," he reflects, "that post-war baby boom whe.n they were 18 and 19 in '65, '66. They w.ere ready to conquer the world, and by 1970 they were a cynical, turned-off bunch that turn­ed in-trospective, and "me-oriented" -and the number one reason for that was a complete lack of faith and trust in the government, and the whole society . . . What would have happened had that war not come along? What would this world be like today? Maybe we'd have 500,000 _people in the Peace Corps. Maybe we wouldn't have the poverty in Central America causing the political problems we've got now."

Though Vietnam did happen, and the younger generation was· turned off, Leatherman looks back and still finds a glimmer of hope. Though hid­den, that spirit of change is still with us, and he hopes it will re-emerge in the coming elections. "Most of those people went into hiding, " he explains, "they got burnt­out . .. Well, they're gonna come back out now, and vote en masse in '84." He calls it a "demographic phenomena" -the same phenomenon that got Pena elected, and is now helping Gary Hart.

Leatherman wants to bring a new, stronger leadership to the baby­boomers he hopes will elect him. He believes the job of a Senator is to identify a few of the most pressing problems, and solve them quickly.

Finding solutions to poverty is high on Leatherman's list of priorities, not just in the U.S. but the world. "I've had the op.portunity to see things that other people haven't," he says. "I've been in Central America, I've been all over Europe and Asia. You read that 15 million children under the age of five die every year from starvation, but wheh you've seen it with your eyes, you can't forget it. It's a diff-erent type of knowledge that won't let you go to sleep at night, and forget, without thinking I've got to do something about it. "

The Leatherman ethic is a purely American, roll-up-your-sleeves-and­get-the- job-done kind of philosophy. It's as if he was inviting all of America to an old-fashioned barn raising. "Let's get everybody working," he says. "The people in Cherry Hills aren't gonna have much of a quality of life if there are people from North Den.ver coming over to bomb their houses every other night." ·

The question of whether America is ready for the straightforward, com­mon sense approach of Steve Leather­man, wilfbe answered later this year. If he wins the Democratic nomina­tion, he will then face incumbent Bill Armstrong. . Leatherman is anxious for the battle. "I guarantee he will debate me," he says, "even if I have to chase him around and camp out in his front yard and wait for him to coine outside."

What makes Leatherman think he -can win? "I'm the only candidate that has the right attitude to beat him," he s~ys. "Yo·u go right to his strengths, first of all. He considers himself an economic expert . .. he's never work­ed in business in his life. His mom and dad gave him a radio station before he got out of college ... he ran it a couple of years, then went into politics- that's hardly the Lee Iacoca story."

"He considers himself a · defense

why-why certain systems are worth And what if Armstrong ref~es to it, and other systems ~en't." go under? No problem, says Leather-

'Let Us Make a Name For Ourselves'

c:c ~

Over the past few months it has bec;ome increasingly clear that the folks at RTD, for one reason or another, fire systematically backing out of any involvement with the proposed transit system from Mile High Stadium to Auraria. Since Christmas, the joint project between AHEC and RTD has visibly degenerated from prom night to divorce court. ·

As a matter of fact, not only does RTD not wa,nt to rush out and do it anymore, they don't even want to study it anymore.

Why they might so suddenly get cold feet is a matter of speculation. Depending on who's side you're on, it could be chalked up to anything from an extremely short attention span all the way to a sudden flash of common sense. But no matter what opinion of the proposed "people mover" you might hold, RTD's sudden and unexplained retreat from battleground Auraria is still a clear example of the foolhardy indifference of the downtown community to what we can do to either help or hurt them. I would suggest that those downtown take a moment to reflect: , We are an extremely large number of people located rather strategically between them and the mountains, and inside of their sovereign borders. In short, ·we would not have to reach very far, or squeeze very hard, to make them feel it where it hurts.

We don't need a people mover-in fact, the money that AHEC has volunteered to contribute to such a system is already enough to build an eight-stoiy parking garage, which would go as far in solving our parking problems as the transit system would, if not farther. . But statistical evidence colleGted by us at The Metropolitan shows t~at an eight-story parking garage is not nearly enough. Parking is by jar the major concern of students on this campus, and those in power are hereby served notice that anything less than a War On Parking is insufficient. The mood of student commuters at Auraria is not dissimilar to the mood of draft-age and minority students in the 1960's. We are damn tired of getpng pushed around.

'We want our parking garage to rise up arUI demand to be noticed as the ugliest thing ever wrought in the history of architecture. "

In light of that, I suggest that AHEC cease and desist from all diplomatic bickering with RTD, and get down to the business of bu~lding us a parking. garage.

And I don't mean some two-bit, eight-story, cowtown excuse of a garage, neither. -

Let's build us a bona-fide, macho, showcase-of-modern-education, 42 story garage. Let'.s plan that sucker to climb into the sun like the Empire State Building.

We can do it if we want to .... AHEC has so much of our money, I'm stire we could build us a T.ower of Babel, if we wanted to. We could probably even have the whole thing plated in 24 carat gold, if·we wanted to.

But we don't want to. We want to make that as ugly as is humanly possi­ble. We want our parking garage to rise up and demand to be noticed as the ugliest thing ever wrought in the history of archit~ture.

And we want to place it strategically between as many ~owntown buildings and the mountains as is humanly possible.

By doing that we could sotve the two biggest problems of the Auraria cam­pus simultaneously. Not only would we have adequate, ev~n ~pie, park­ing, we would also have a constant reminder to the surrounding community that what we do here is strictly downtown. ·

In fact, an architect friend of mine assures me that it is entirely within the realm of possibility to design a functional parking garage in the shape of a hand, it's middle finger extended toward downtown. Along those same lines, he even suggested that the whole thing could be erected to look like a huge . . . well, no, maybe that's a little too far out of line.

The point is that, so far at least, the State of Colorado is pumping a large amount of money into higher education. It's what they keep complaining a~ut, in case you haven't noticed. Astounding amounts of that money come from the people and corporations of downtown Denver, most of whom would not ever see it again if fair chunks of it weren't being funneled into Auraria, where we respectfully bow our little architectural heads to the ground, so they won't miss their view of the mountains.-

Well, they hire our graduates to make their businesses better. And they consult our experts, to make their businesses better. . And they send their employees baclc to school here, to make their

businesses better. And they gradually allow interns to work for little or nothing, and

gracefully allow, without protest, the two major newspapers in Denver.to suggest that we turn out inferior graduates, even though they know better, and even gracefully ignore the whole 33,000 of us as if we were an eight-level mirage. ,,,

Well, to hell with that. Administrators at al,l four of the sovereign entities on this campus have been involved in community outreach, much of which involved a kind of pleading-, "please-like-me-please''. attitude. .

We don't have to beg anyone to like us, anymore. If RTD doesn't want to pay half-price for a showcase transit system, that's their business.

And if the downtown Denver community wants to sit quietly the next time the CU Board of Regents tries to take over the campus, that's their business.

And if the businesses in Larimer Square choose to believe that students don't spend money there, that's their business.

And if we want to build a 42-story stucco parking garage that resembles a Mexican toadstook, ~hat's our business.

Editor,I am extremely concerned about the safety of our students and staff who

must come to the East Classroom on the Auraria Campus. All the parkinglots are on the west side of Speer Boulevard and, thus, dodging one's wayacross Speer.is a daily peril for many of us. The present situation is unaccep-table, and it is just a matter of time before someone is killed.

I saw an accident recently which prompted me to try to do something. Iwas trying to cross Speer and was forced out of the crosswalk because thestopping point for cars is not well marked; then continued to the little island;and then the crosswalk on l3th. The crosswalk light is on when Lawrencetraffic is green. A fast moving car in the continuous right turn lane off ofLawrence didn't even slow down and nearly hit me. This has also happened

A 'sparkling'DebateEditor.

I wish to compliment The Metropolitan for its superb features on the IrishDebate by Gary Jones, D.J. Owens, and Carson Reed. Metro State has beenhosting the Irish Debate, initiated by Professor Gary Holbrook, for the pastfive years. It is important that it become an annual tradition because it ac-complishes in such a sparkling way something that is so glaringly Iacking atAuraria-an international perspective. Students and faculty have much tolearn from the Irish debaters in terms of rhetorical skills. Their exoert handl-ing of the English language, their ability to develop a point and sustain anargument, their keen sense of repartee provide a welcome and necessaryantidote to the solemn provincialism of American education.

Denver·s buildings are not as new as they first appear, and may hide clues to Colorado's past.

One MSC professor has discovered that the massive structures, so prevalent on the constantly revised skyline, are actually from ancient places far away. .

\1SC geology professor Dr. Tames MacLachlan has spent several years studying the' building materials used in many of Denver's skyscrapers and historical landmarks, and , found many. examples of prehistoric rocks and fossils .

"With all the construction and modification of the landscape in Denver, there are still some remnants of the natural landscape, " MacLachlan says.

relatively lightweight and porous, making it "good substantial stuff' for building. (The Gallery is one of Denver's first churches, and was' possibly built in the late 1870's by a group of Episcopalians, he says.)

The East Classroom is made out of Pike's Peak granite and decorated inside with Colorado marble. MacLachlan says the tomb of the unknown soldier is also made from

' Colorado marble. The landmark in Arlington National Cemetary, Arlington, Va., was carved out of a single block of marble from a quarry near Marble, Colorado.

MacLachlan says geology is akin to archeology, because both sciences dig up the facts and then write the story.

a Supreme E fjort by D.J. Owens Rn:il'wrr. Tiii' l\frtmpolitan

There are probably going to be two very differ~nt reactions to Joe Jackson's newest album, Body and Soul.

The hard-core, long time Joe Jackson fans might be a little disap­pointed that the "Swing King" seems to be sticking with the proven for­mula discovered in the studio with Night and Day. Body and Soul is a

- follow-up album that only continues the previous direction. Very little new ground has been broken. No risk-taking to speak of, just resting on past laurels.

Body and Soul uses many of the sounds so memorable from Night and Day. Blatant horns and tinkling per­cussion ebb and approach as Joe only occasionally touches his home base, the piano. No heavy metal guitar here. Some songs-most notably Be My Number Two and You Can't Get What Yo11 Want-sound so similar to their predecessors you'd think they were outtakes.

As the delicate fabric of Cha Cha Loco is unveiled, Jackson delivers his message by alluding to circumstance. He doesn't speak directly to the issues, but only makes references to par­ticular imagery . ..

You like the dress It's out of mothballs once a year

The good champagne Tomorrow night it's back to beer

The opening dance cut gives way to the lonely reaching out of Not Now , Not Here. It's a confession of helplessness, resolutely questioning love's value in light of life's heart­aches.

But the victory of Body and Soul is not allowed to be overshadowed for very long. Soon the LP's single, You Can 't Get What You Want (Til You Know What You Want), returns with harmonizing horns and lyrics that totally discount and leave behind the sadness of the previous ballad. You Can 't Get What You Want displays some tasty guifar plucking that sounds as if it were lifted direc~ly

Th~ 'f!opular reaction . .. is bound to be very positive.

Joe Jackson is selling out in acer­tain, real sense. Before Night and Day; he, Elvis Costello, and others were making names for themselves as they constantly eluded being pigeon­holed. They weren't hard rockers or pop musicians. They weren't punks or heavy metallers. Even the vague, undefined category of "new wave" could not hold them.

Soul is bound to be very positive. Judging by the triumphant trumpets that open side one, this is a victory:

off the Doobie's Takin It To The Streets.

That's how diverse this album is.

With the musical score in his head,

Jackson feasts on a smorgasbord of different textures. The piano, saxes, and funky Latin rhythms all satisfy a

Happy Ending. It's a crime their voices were used so sparingly, but there is so much on this album that everything had to be worked in with careful moderation.

Body and Soul finishes off with one more contemplative ballad and the mostly instrumental Heart of Ice.

Here the celebration comes to a close in a flair of lofty surprise and achiev& ment. But now it seems as though Joe

Jackson has run out of places to turn; the time has come to settle down and start pleasing the masses. This is where the second, different reaction will be cominsz from.

Cruis~' on a Full-Tilt Art ·Boogie By Scott Mohr

~

Reviewer, The Metropolitan

When I bumped into MSC Art Instructor Jean Schiff at the opening of the MSC Student Art Show last week, I was reminded of how shocked I'd been that day in 1972 when she had suddenly wadded up one of my drawings and thrown it the floor shoutin_g, "Too tight( Too tight("

I mentioned this as we huddled briefly together amidst the people and art work packed inside the Emmanuel Gallery and she smiled, laughed and denied ever having done such a thing.

I couldn't help but enjoy the primitive playfulness of Marion 'Wright's Over the Hump assistance device.

Finally, ~ee Klein's vibrant Blues Sisters best expressed the "Full Boogie" theme of the show and mood of opening night as I looked down upon the reveling crowd clustered below.

At the base of the stairs, Andre Metz's clay candle holder served notice that, upstairs, things were going to get more funky. Graffiti in Cindy Coburn's photos, more graffiti in Barbara Mosinski's "New York, New York". I especially liked the way Coburn reflected this, by spray­painting squiggly lines directly onto her frames.

Sitting there alone, I pondered some heavy questions . .. questions about struggle .. . expression .. '. style and personal development. But, mostly I thought about how hard it was to create something that Jean Schiff didn't wad up and throw onto the floor. 0

SPORIS Robin Heid' s

Wild Life Guidebook· The Friday afternoon motorcycle parking is in typical disarray as I pull up

east of the PER building to the raised strip of dirt and concrete adjacent to one of the pay lots. In a miraculous display of bureaucratic vision, AHEC some years ago decided to forego its "everyone pays" parking philosophy and allow free motorcycle parking in this area. The move accomplished several things, including:

A net parking revenue increase because AHEC charges · more for a car to park in a space than a bike;

a net headache decrease for the auto-bound: if you think parking's bad now, think what it would be like if you were competing with motorcycles, too;

a reward for those environmentally and socially aware enough to use. transport which impacts .minimally on Denver pollution and AHEC congestion; and

a confirmation of the fact that common sense is a misnamed human attribute.

As I cruise past the foot-high curb separating the parking area from the access road, I see that most bikes have been ridden up the entryways, then turned 180 degrees and parked, facing out, perpendicular to the curb. It is the logical way to do it; it's obvious that lining up vehicles this way gives tbe most parking for the space.

Unfortunately, too many AHEC motorcyclists provide daily reiteration for the confirmation mentioned above. Through either bad manners or blown brain circuits, these chumps clog up both the entryways and access path with their steel steeds, thus preventing those without the inclination to take on the curb from parking in many available spaces.

A narrow space between two chump bikes is barely big enough for my wide-engined Kawasaki to get through, but I do it and park, wondering how well these people handle their machines in traffic when they can't even figure out what to do with them in a parking lot. I'll probably read about them in the traffic reports ...

This reflective view of motorcycle parking shows bikes blocking both access path and entryways. Wake up, chumps . •.

Inside PER, it is quiet, calm and cool. Classes are going on, people are moving back and forth, but nowhere is the frantic rush and confusion of other AHEC buildings, including the library. Even on weekdays, this place is mellow.

I walk to an office on the west end that overlooks the swimming pool, looking for El SID (The Sports Information Director). I find him engaged in conversation with Renee Rbwland and Jodi Prather, a couple of jocks who wa9t to start an MSC cheerleading squad so we can generate a little school ENTHUSIASM around here. He fills me in on the goings-on, mentioning that tl_ieyve just been discussing whether there should be any grade point average requirements for maintaining eligibility on the squad. The comment strikes me as funny-not because minimum academic requirements are ·a bad thing, but because an equivalent physical question would never come up in a discussion about forming an MSC debate team or acting troupe. I imagine a thespian trying to run an eight-minute mile to maintain her physical point average so she could stay on the MSC acting squad.

MSC, Zang's to Sponsor Summer Softball League MSC· Campus Recreation a.nd the

Zang Brewing Co. have announced the formation of the first recreational softball league in Downtown Denver.

Cold Day Brings:Hot Win by Curtis Sandoval R~orter, The Metropolitan

Last Friday, I decided to fight the wind anci the cold at D.U. Stadium to see the MSC baseball team battle · DU in their second game of the Metro Denver Baseball Tournament.

The Roadrunners had beaten Colo­rado School of Mines earlier in the day, then driven from Golden to South Denver. And having been beaten by DU twice this week, I was concerned about their chances.

But after MSC took a 2-0 first inn­ing lead, my hopes rose. Pitcher Bob Weber was outstanding early, retir­ing six · of the first seven Pioneers before giving up a hit.

Metro could do no wrong! Randy

Hodges homered to left-center in the third and a D.U. error in the fourth gave Metro a 4-0 lead. The Pioneers stayed in the game with a home run in the fifth, but in the bottom of the fifth Dan ~attinez doubled to give MSC five hits and four runs for a commaQding 8-2 lead.

I thought the game was over then, so I hid behind a wind screen, trying to keep my frozen body warm. But then came the last inning, and quite a scare for Metro. Mike Tackett had come in to pitch in the sixth, but couldn't find the strike zone in the seventh, walking five of the first six D.U. hitters. Craig Bonato finished the inning and the game to give MSC an 11-7 win, its second consecutive victory of the tournament. 0

Ruggers Upset, Tracksters Dash The MSC Rugby team was upset

late in the second half when the Denver Barbarians scored a last minute tri, making Saturday's final score 11-9.

Mike Johnson, aq MSC junior, kicked a field goal to tie up both teams in the first half. Then, after the "Barbos" scored again with a tri in the second half, Johnson ran it in for four more points and Metro pulled ahead-by two after the conversation.

The MSC track team ran for two wins on a windy Saturday at the CU Relays in Boulder, with Ken Ross tak- , ing the 100-yard dash and Bruce Jenkins winning 400- yard in­ter~diate hurdles.

Other runners Coach Briap J ans8en said P,erformed well were Kim Hall, second in the 100-yard hurdles; John

But minutes before it was all ~~er, Barbarian Dave Krantz came through with a final tri to lead the' top-ranking Denver club to victory.

As for the MSC B-side, the only pleasure they found was at the com­plimentary Coors keg after the game as they took il 36-0 pounding by the University of Wyoming, which got some revenge for an ea-rlier loss to the A-team.

- Harry Olson f

Liese, second in the . 5000-yard run; and Zelda Thomas, third in the 200-yard dash. Teams in the men's division were : CU, University of Wyoming, Air Force, and several in­dependent teams. In the women's division they were: UNC, CC, Schooi of Mines, and Adams State.
