Sign-up continues despite earlier promises by R.P. Bellizzi I

--- What should you do? You're 18-21 'years-old, and are required to register for the draft. Perhaps your brother or father

is a veteran. They know how you should feel about it, but you're not so sure. You have to come to terms with your dilemma,

_and soon.

In July, 1980, then-President Carter reinstated draft registration "in the in­terests of national security" after the Soviets invaded Afghanistan in December, 1979. ...

Throughout his presidential campaign, Ronald Reagan expressed strong opposi-

tion to maintaining draft registration, claiming that "advanced registration _will

do ' little to enhance our military ~preparedness."

However, on Jan. 7, 1982, President Reagan announced he had decided to con­tinue draft registration.

Reagan, in announcing bis decision, /'.wrote, " ... we live in a dangerous world. In the event of a future threat to national

safety, registration could save the United States as much as six weeks in mobilizing emergency manpower."

The Justice Dept. has announced that • prosecutions will be delayed until the grace period ends.

Since 1980, 6.6 million men have registered for the draft, while more than 800,000 have not.

It is estimated that 20,000 of those not registered live in Colorado. The penalty

for non-compliance is a five-year prison term and a $10,000 fine.

When Reagan announced his·decision, he ". . . instructed the Department of

Justice to make provision for a grace period for late registrants."

On Jan. 20, Selective Service Director Thomas K. Turnage announced that

young men who have failed to register for the draft would have until Feb. 28 to sign up without penalty.

Up until that time, the Justice Dept. had received the names of 150 men who

failed to register, but held up prosecution ~til Reagan had decided his policy.

Many of those men's names were turn­ed in to the Justice Dept. by neighbors and

acquaintances participating in its infor­ma~t program.

The Selective Service System otherwise must rely on military recruiting records to verify compliance.

Prior to May, 1981, recruiters were not permitted access to high school student's records. That changed last year when Rep. State Senator Sam Zakhem proposed

Draft counseling available from several groups

Several organizations in Denver are making themselves available for registra­tion counseling and consultation.

"Eighteen-year-olds have not been talc-, ing this too seriously," says Eric Wright, of the American Friends Service Committee.

"We are trying to build support for people who will be fa<:ing prosecution. It's real important for us to provide information to people."

_ Wright stressed that, unlike the Viet ...,Nam war era, there will be no pre-draft

classification.

_,

"Draft-eligible men will not have prior ·knowledge of their classification," Wright explained. "The first notice they get will be included with their induction notice."

The Cornerstone Justice and Peace Center is also involved in counseling.

Steve Kosmicki, one of "seven or eight" men and women involved in the project, said, "We try to inform people of the con-

'i.sequences of both registration and non­registration. While we are sympathetic to non-registration, we don't openly ad­vocate it.

"We are receptive to people who cannot register for reasons of conscience,"

~ leosmicki added.

Kosmicki, 31, was studying in a seminary during the latter part of the Viet Nam war, when the military draft was last in effect. ·

"At first, I was gung-ho: 'blow them all to pieces,' " Kosmicki remembered. "However, I did a complete turnaround during that time. I decided then that if there ever was another draft, I would per­sonally try to do something about it."

"I am appalled at the pro-military fac­tion" prevelant today, Kosmicki con­tinued. "Young people are ignorant of history, just ready to go to war. These peo-

ple are clay pigeons for the Selective Ser­vice System; they've got them in their .sights, and they're (young men) not even aware of it."

Kosmicki sees registering as a Conscien­tious Objector as something that alot of men choose to do, and he "encourages them to come down and get their beliefs on paper."

Rich lacovetta, 22, a Regis College stu­dent, is also putting some effort behind his beliefs. He is org~ng an information

table at Regis to "try and malce people aware of what's going on." He'll be in Regis' student center, 50th and Lowell Boulevard, on Feb. 15-17.

an amendment to Colorado's Public Records Act. The amendment allows school districts to give students' names, phone numbers, and addresses to military recruiters.

Gov. Richard Lamm signed the bill in May, 1981.

That information is now available to recruiters. A student must specifically in­dicate that he wants his name excluded from the list.

According to Joan Lamb, Washington spokeswoman for the Selective Service System, nine percent of the men born in 1960, 1961, and 1962 have failed to

register. Last year men born in 1963 were required to register. Twenty three percent did not.

Now that President Reagan has clarified his position on draft registration, it is time for draft-age men to determine their position.

Student Body Presidential Report

Important news to all clubs: all club business tran­sactions (including, but not limited to, s,uch things as club supplies, club recognition, reservation of facilities and equipment for club functions on campus, and all files on clubs) will be conducted with the office of Stu­dent Activities, room 153 in the Student Center.

This transfer of club business from the Student Government is a direct result of a new requirement handed down from the exalted feudal lords at AHEC. The new rule forces clubs requesting space for club ac­tivities outside of the Student Center to deal with AHEC through a contracted institutional represen­tative. This condition exists for all three institutions on campus.

This quandry is especially exacerbating for UCD, because the students of UCD elect a student represen­tative (this year that person is Myles Mangram) to direct programs, on- and off campus, for UCD. Though Myles is elected by his constituency, and receives a stipend for his position, he doesn't qualify as an institutional representative because h~ isn't under contract with one of the schools. Peggy Raab, an employee of the MSC Student Activities, is the only other professional in that office besides the director, · Gina Johnson, until a new assistant director is found. She cannot transact business with AHEC for clubs because she, too, lacks a contract.

The mentality of the executives at AHEC has made itself apparent: They won't be bothered with anything relative to students except through a non-student. They aren't to be annoyed nor distracted by the in­cidental and irrelevant young people.

This mentality is evidenced elsewhere. When it was announced to the AHEC Board of Directors that UCD

was going to publish its own student paper, Jerome F. Wartgow, executive director of AHEC, voiced his ob­jection to such a thing happening. I don't know if he is aware that CCD-A's student govennment is also in the process of publishing a once-monthly issue covering af­fairs of that institution. The argument was that the creation of a sec<fnd campus paper would create com­petition. I'll argue that such competition would be minimal, since the UCD paper would have a more specific focus, i.e., UCD issues, resources for UCD students, etc., and that if such competition as was alleged indeed did result from a second publication on campus, great. When a monopoly exists, there is no competition, and where there is no competition, quali­ty of a product wanes. I'll contend that if competition were indeed created, it would result in a necessarily improved level of product quality for both publica­tions, old and new.

UCD has already dealt on a business level with The Metropolitan, and for whatever reasons, such business dealings were terminated. The monies which are being contributed to The Metropolitan and the new UCD .publication are, except for advertising revenues, stu-

dent fees monies. Therefore, the discretion over these funds rests exclusively within the purview of the stu­dent governments. What is created, e.g., a new stu­dent publication, is the business of the students, and not the business of the executives of AHEC or the AHECBoard. ~

I feel tliat The Metropolitan is good for MSC. I feef that it isn't very well utilized or read by UCD students, for whatever reason. I feel that the Executive Council of UCD is obliged to provide a student publication to the students of UCD, and the action being taken by Rob Hampel is commendable and responsible.

We, as students, must recognize the fact that we are -under constant attempts by the AHEC Board to manipulate and usurp things which are rightfully ours. The executives and the Board of Directors of AHEC treat the students in a condescending and pedantic manner, and for this reason a defensive and pugnatious posture must be assumed when dealing with the entity of AHEC. ..

Tenaciously yours.

Student wants_ free parking lots ....

~ Editor: A new semester has started again. Yet another one in which students will be forced to deal with the Auraria parking sham.

The prime question is: Why must we pay for park­ing here at Auraria? Simple enough, the AHEC bond fee must be paid off by someone and we the students

~ (plus faculty and staff) are the ones doing it: We are helping to pay this debt each time a parking ticket is bought. That's great but the next time you are looking for change to jam into the ticket machine, remember how you have already paid $13 to this mysterious fund at the time you paid tuition. Multiply this amount by the tens of thousands of students that attend school at

,- Auraria and that is quite a hefty amount of cash flow (also remember that you pay this twice a year).

-:-Calendar not sexist Editor: I've just purchased a CU Classics calendar

over my wife's protests. She's claiming it to be a snob­bish and sexist item downgrading women as just ob­

- jects to qe gazed at. ~ The Classics calendar proves that women at

Auraria, and even some who mistakenly chose to go to Boulder, who have brains enough to get some higher education can be attractive and not afraid to show it. Even my wife had to admit, after actually looking at the calendar, that it was done with taste and will show

,. that Auraria women can compete with the Boulderites in every respect.

So I will admit that the calendar may be snobbish, but we do have a right don't we? And as for sexist, as any guy, his Playboy calendar is sexist. But his Classics calendar is classic. And we know that all women want

_ a class guy don't wel '$: Paul Zimmerman

It used to not be so bad to park here. Every lot was machine operated and the cost was only a quarter in every lot. Then someone explained supply and de­mand to AHEC and now we get to pay more to park in

·lots closer to the buildings. Overnight the property value of the lots increased proportionally to their distance from classrooms. Students can now pay up to $3. 75 a week to Pl}t their cars on Auraria real estate for a few hours.

Not only do we have location-rated lots but we also get to give our money to a real human who gets paid by the hour to sit in a booth all day. Maybe AHEC in­corporated people to take our money from us so we will feel as if we are getting more from our dollar. I don't think so - the machines can take two quarters

from one just as easily as a human. Also, it costs alot of money to build elaborate booths with ·gates, to heat and light these booths, and to pay people to work in them. If anything, the booths are increasing un­necessarily the amount we have to pay to AHEC.

So, AHEC is clipping us for $26 in bond fees, about $40 for parking spaces (the cheap lots) and two bucks for decals - as far as I can tell they do not wear out but AHEC says we need two per year - 68 clams each year to AHEC. Students are not rich and I know of many ways I would rather spend $68.

The parking situation at Auraria is a sham. Having to pay people to take our money and paying more for lots closer is ridiculous.

Meeting scheduled to plan Foreman, Mosqueda foruni ·

The Auraria chapter of the International Com­mittee Against Racism will hold a planning meeting on Feb. 9, from noon to 2 p.m. in room 330 of the Student Center about an upcoming forum.

The forum, scheduled for later in February, will center around the legal cases of Roy Foreman and Lawrence Mosqueda.

Foreman is a former UCO student who has spent the last three years in prison for a crime another man has confessed to committing. Foreman was convicted in the fall of 1980 of being a complicitor in the shooting death of Dale Alan Stubblefield.

Foreman insisted then and still does today that he is completely innocent of any charges. Though another man, Robert Shaw, completely exonerated Foreman of any involvement in the shooting, he was found guilty of first degree murder and sentenced to· life in prison.

Lawrence Mosqueda is UCO political science professor who is suing the University of Denver for discriminatory hiring practices.

Mosqueda applied for a teaching position at DU in the fall of 1981 and became one of three finalists for the job in the spring of 1981. Though he was, by far, more qualified than any of the other finalists he did not receive the job.

Mosqueda is convinced, as are others involved in the case, that Mosqueda was denied the job because he is Chicano. Dennis Judd, a DU political science professor, resigned as chairman of the political science department in protest to Mosqueda's denial. He also has joined Mosqueda in suing DU.

The forum about the two cases is scheduled to br­ing attention to the racism practices of the legal system and DU and the court appeal of Foreman.

InCAR is a multi-racial group of students, workers and soldiers established to fight racism.

_Reader: Reagan gearing for war Editor: In the past few months a very serious situa­

tion has developed. The United States has started an intensive propaganda attack on the revolutionary movements in the Caribbean, and in Cuba. The pur­pose of this campaign is to prepare the North

-Y American people for the armed intervention into these areas. Secretary of Defense Alexander Haig Jr. and the Reagan Administration have said that the "leftward drift" of these Latin American countries must stop, or they will take some kind of punitive action. This move is seen as ineviable by some political observers, the on-

..._ ly thing in question is the correct timing. · Unfortunately, Mexico, France, and, West Ger­

many, staunch allies of the United STates, have recognized the legitimacy of these revolutionary strug­gles. This has somewhat delayed their plans to bring idealogical stability to the area, and it is this alone that has prevented them, so far, from taking the next

...., drastic step. The one that will put a young generation of Americans back behind the guns, and over the same bomb sights that uselessly destroyed hundreds of thousands of lives in Southeast Asia.

If U.S. plans for the blockade, or invasion becomes a reality they can expect to be opposed by forces as

_.disciplined and as determined as were those that -- defeated them in Vietnam.

To set the backdrop for this invasion, perhaps with Honduran or Argentinian armed forces , Washington has charged that Soviet Bloc arms have been funneled through Cuba, and Nicaragua. This has been their ex­cuse for another arms esculation, the Falcon Vista

military maneuvers, in which they participated with the Honduran army, and the stockpiling of arms in Panama.

The charges by Washington are "100 percent lies," said Gillermo Rodezno of Casa de El Salvador, during a speaking engagement in Denver, Colorado in November 1981. Rodezno is an official spokesman for the Frente Democratic Revolucionario (FDR), and the Farabundo Marti National Liberation Front (FMLN) of El Salvador.

He emphasized that it is only the North American people that can stop this act of naked aggression, and that they must come out in support of the right to self­determination for the revolutionary struggles in the Caribbean, and in Central America. They must tell their government "hands off." The American people may soon be faced with that decision.

The words of Alexander Haig, "the hours are grow­ing short," are foreboding, and implys that for the revolutionaries apocalypse is approaching. The danger of this is so real that Fidel Castro has had Cuba on full war alert since October 1981.

Haigs threat is just the most recent in a long series of anti-revolutionary propaganda, and it is this type of threat that has prompted Daniel Ortega, Commander of the Nicaraguan Revolution, to say before the United Nations General Assembly, Oct. 7, 1981.

"it is there, in that age-old reality of exploitation of the Central American nations and in the injustice with which the developed world treats our people, that we must seek the causes of the turmoil rocking Central

. ' .... . ' ..

America, not in the Nicaraguan revolution. Our revolution is the first major effort made in the history of Central America to eliminate the roots of the crisis."

It is a sad fact that the conservative North American press prints very little to contradict Washington's pro­paganda thrusts towards intervention in Cuba and Central America, and consequently the people of North America may be led blindfolded into another Vietnam.

Auraria new papers: numerous and humorous

by James Powers I The names.and personnel have chang-

. ed constantly. Controversy, at times, has swirled about them. They've been student supported and independent. They've run out of money and they've run out of steam.

Whatever's happened, the history of Auraria's school newspapers hasn't been dull .

Digging through the Auraria Library's Archives Department, the oldest student newspaper that can be found dates back to 1965; CU Denver Center - The Sentry; Vol. 3, No. 6.

The top story in the six-page issue was the student council approval of the Sen­try budget for the following year. A survey form on the back page wanted to know if anyone was reading the Sentry, and if so, what stories?

About a year later the first incarna­tion of The Metropolitan made its ap­pearance. The thin issue indicated a dif­ferent set of reporting ,priorities than its counterpart.

"Metro Expansion Enters Second Year," said the four-column headline. "Metropolitan State College enrolled over 2,400 students in its second year of operation" began the lead story.

Another year passed at MSC and The Metropolitan decided it needed a new name. It was decided by the staff that a

stu ent newspaper should be named by the ~dents. The Oct. 9, 1967 issue an­nouhced a "Name the Paper" contest. In the ELnterim it was called Your Ohoicel

T o issues later the winners 'fere an­nou ced. Junior Don· Morreale and Bar­bar Blansett of the English department sub itted the Metro Gadfly.

" he Gadfly was chosen becalise of its si ificance in relation to . Plato's Ap logy when he refers to Socrates as a ga y for the Greek state of Athens," exp ained the newly named ! student ne~spaper. "MSC's newspaper' intends to lay 'gadfly' to the 'State' of 1MSC."

his period also shows the e~ergence of 4n underground newspaper at Metro c~ed the S--t List.

''\Is this new newspaper really. the opi­niop of our students in print, I or is it sim~y the views of a miinority?" wo dered the Gadfly.

t the same time MSC students were pie · g a new name for theirl official pa r, another one appeared. The short-lived Neoteric Puff - no crxplana­tiorl of the name provided - s~d in its first issue that, "two papers that are evet mediocre but improving, are better tha one inexperienced paper that has a mo opoly on the news." 1

March of 1968 appeared to be a good mobth for name changes. At CUJ.Denver Ce~ter, the Sentry became the Fourth Estate. A few days later Metro's publica­ti~i became simply The Paper.

In 1971 MSC's :student publication seemed to suffer an identity crisis. The year's first issue was called The New Yorke Tymes At Denver. The following month it was called,the Metro Enquirer, with a front page worthy of the local supermarket checkout lin~.

The Paper reappeared ; the following week, although the imfression from reading old issues is tha some people wished it would just go a~ay altogether.

A year~long controve~y raged bet­ween the newspaper staff ~nd MSC's ad­ministration over the content and pro­fessionalism of news stories and the use of four-letter words iii print.

In May of 1971, the differences culminated with the dosing down of The Paper by MSC's Board of Publica­tions and Public Information (BOPP!).

Two months later The Paper was back in business with a new staff.

Two years later the name changed again. This time it became The Aurarian. By April 1974 it was in danger of becoming extinct. A front page story stated that the paper wotdd have to be discontinued in the fall because no one had applied for the editor's pqsition.

The plea worked. The May 8 issue an­nounced that a new editor had been chosen from four applicants.

In the fall the paper's new alais was the Auraria Transcript - and the editor was in hot water. BOPPI voted to sus­pend editor, Marguaret Peterson, for the rest of the fall quarter for publishing an anonymous letter critical of the Black Studies program. Peterson appealed the decision and was allowed to remain as editor. She was placed on probation for the winter quarter.

The Auraria Transcript lasted until mid-1976. It was replaced by the bi­monthly Cherry Creek Pioneer, which used a magazine-size (8V1x11-inch) for­mat. Appearing on newsprint, the front page of the first issue was a reproduction of the front page of the original Pioneer.

"This is the second edition of the loser in Western journalism's most famous race," the new Pioneer exclaimed. "The first came off the press 20 minutes after the Rocky Mountain News had already. been proclaimed Denver's first newspaper on April 23, 1859. ' "The next day John Merrick, the publisher, reputedly sold out to the vic­tor for a grubstake and marched off to seek his fortune in the gold fields. In that great tradition, we resurrect the Cherry Creek Pioneer, Volumn (sic) 2, number l."

The publication tried its hand at arty covers and poetry in addition to news and feature stories. Although the 20th century Pioneer outlasted its gold rush days counterpart, it wasn't by much. Three editors, 19 issues and six months

after its inception, it became just another deceased Auraria publication.

Next up was the Auraria Times, with Rosemary Cowles as publisher. Cowles had . been business manager and last -, editor of the Pioneer. She made the Times an -independent newspaper not supported by student fees.

The Times jested about the way publications had come and gone at Auraria. In it:S first issue of 1977, the caption of a cartoon read, "Yes, ma' am, we were the Transcript, then tlie Cherry Creek Pioneer, and next week we'll ·be the Auraria Chronicle-Standard-Press­Daily-Herdld (choose one)."

More publications came and went in 1978. UCD's Fourth Estate, which had -t

shifted to a magazine format, closed down in May. It cited lack of funds and a twice monthly schedule which left it out of touch with students as reasons.

The first two - and only - editions of the Auraria Sun were produced dur-

. ing the summer of that year. The Sun hoped to receive funding from all three Auraria schools to get off the ground and provide a variety of journalism ex­periences for students.

Although MSC recognized the Sun as . a student organization, UCD elected to _.

. call the newly arrived Denver edition of the Colorado Daily its official publica-tion and the Sun went down. · The Colora<J,o Daily couldn't survive

as a daily and published a few weekly issues as the Auraria Voice early in 1979 before going under.

In October the independent Auraria Times closed its doors, prompted - in its words - by the refusal of MSC to either pay for advertising or pay for the students who were being trained there.

At about the same time, Metamor- .; phosis, a twice monthly publication of CCD-A, also ceased.

In February of 1979, Th e Metrppolitan appeared in its present form. Its first editorial stated that it would serve the entire Auraria educa­tional community, but would emphasize MSC. The reason was simple: MSC stu­dent fees were subsidizing the paper.

In 1981 UCD contributed funds to The Metropolitan, but currently declines to do so. UCD prefers to fund its own student publication, Student ,,.. Pub's, which is expected to begin in the near future.

All the name-changing throughout the years may not be over yet. Brian Coffey-Weber, present editor of The Metropolitan, would like to have a new name for his paper.

"I think the paper should represent the entire campus," he says, "and its name should reflect that. And I'd also like to see financial support from all three schools."

'Chariots' bums with classic struggles

by Mark Helm I young men in classic struggles of man vs . .__ ____________ ___,_ man, man vs. himself, and man vs.

It has not taken long for a film destined to be one of the year's best to be released, Chariots of Fire. The film in­dustry will be well challenged to pro­duce pictures of this quality and caliber for the rest of 1982.

Chariots of Fire is the story of two

religion as the two protagonists vie for positions on the 1924 British Olympic team in Paris, France.

The film switches back and forth bet­ween the real life stories of Harold Abrahams (played by Ben Cross) and Eric Liddell (played by Ian Charleson) .

businessman recently accepted to Cam­bridge University. At the time, the,. University had no running program, so Abrahams seeks out his own running coach and pays him for instruction. The lessons help, but Abrahams is driven more by his hatred of bigotry. He uses runmng as a tool to illustrate that all . men really are created equal, regardless of race, creed, or color. It is his fierceness in competition that makes Abrahams such a great runner and the film is superb in making the viewer feel this intensity.

Eric Liddell, a completely devoted Christian uses God as his motivation. For Liddell it works well because he seems to fly when running. Liddell takes on almost superhuman capabilities dur­ing a race, leaving the other runners literally in the dust.

Even with God as his aide, Liddell still must train very hard. Once late for his evangelism meeting, Liddell's sister chastises him for doing too much runn­ing and not enough "religiousing." Lid- -dell replies that while God is his first -responsibility, He also made him fast. Thus, he (Liddell) must train for the Olympics as it is God's will that he do so.

The lives of these two constrastive runners are craftily weaved together un­til at last the two compete head to head in a race and then become members of the British Olympic squad.

The climax occurs in the games when Liddell is told that the first heats for the 100 meter dash are to be held on Sun­day. The drama involved after Liddell " finds out about the heats, and in the games themselves, is quite good.

The film is full of energy and realism. The viewer feels the joys of training, the elation of victory, and the anguish that accompanies defeat. This is due in part to the fine cinematography, but mainly .. to the excellence in the production and screen writing by David Puttnam and Collin Welland respectively.

Puttnam was responsible for produc­ing Midnight Express, one of the most effective movies ever made. Welland '­helped out in the script writing of Straw Dogs, another very intense film.

These two men's talents, along with Hugh Hudson's direction (his feature film debut) and Vangelis Papathanassiou's captivating sound- , track, blend nicely, to make Chariots of ~ Fire an exquisite motion picture.

This is one film you do not want to miss. It's a great deal at $4.00 a seat - a not so common observation in movies as of late.

_G. Gordon Liddy lives • • on poUTer, pess1m1sm

by Carson Ben Reed I G. Gordon Liddy has written the very

last book on Watergate. (We hope!) After four-and-a-half years in prison, Liddy has gone on to become one of the most popular speakers on the college lec-ture circuit. .

The following is a look at the book, the lecture, and the man himself. "

.- "'Four things greater than all else are, -Women and Horses and Power and War.

- Rudyard Kipling

A cross between J. Edgar Hoover and F. Lee Bailey, G. Gordon Liddy is not a man carved out of a banana.

He has the look of the great power plants of the early sixties - the Chevys and the Oldsmobiles that promised 358 cubic inches of incredible POWER. Lid­dy is a precision machine, which is precisely what he considers himself to

~~ be.

Wherever you might stand on the political fence, we ~ould all be proud as Americans that this country can still produce a machine of this caliber.

G . Gordon Liddy is no hollowpoint, r no dummy. He is a 45 caliber steel-nosed

son-of-a-bitch~ and qe is a machine that \\'.as created and refined in the years before World War II when POWER was heady stuff and pacifists were not in great demand.

Liddy will probably rate less than a paragraph in the pages of American history. His chief claim to fame was that he hired a gang of Cuban mafioso, which had failed to kill Castro, to burglarize a make-shift office in a fancy hotel. They didn' t do that right, either, and the rest is just one more dull chapter

-, of American history. · But G. Gordon Liddy is more than

just a bit player in the sordid soap opera of our political past. He waited out the seven-year statute of limitations on his Watergate crimes before writing his

.,. aut~biography, and during that time - America came full circle and G. Gordon

Liddy is now chic. Alive and well, he is doing a two hour stand-up routine for standing-room-only audiences at college campuses everywhere.

I caught him at DU last Wednesday " night, and he was absolutely everything

his agent warned me he would be -"witty, charming, and fun." ·

His dubfous past has served to give him a national podium, and from that podium he speaks for the hawkish and

~ ultra-conservative avant-garde with a ~ most persuasive and seductive voice.

This is no Nixon clone, this is no ugly Republican. Liddy has more intensity and good looks than any political speaker since John F . Kennedy. And he isn't even running for office .. . yet.

~- As a child Liddy listened with awe at the intoxicating voice of Adolph Hitler. Liddy is no neo-Nazi, but his lingering admiration for Hitler still shows up in funny ways ... in his powerful speaking voice, in his adherance to social Dar­winism, and in his cold-blooded choice

G. Gordon Liddy of a wife on the grounds that she had "good genes." ·

Standing in front of an audience, it is easy to visualize him in military jacket and jack boots. It is equally easy to see the young members of his audience in brown shirts and narrow ties.

I watched Liddy do. a funny thing to his audience at DU . . . well, a peculiar thing that was maybe not so funny. He told his audience, which had a respec­tably large number of draft-age young men, that he believed that there would have to be a draft. A low grumble just barely got started around the room when he said:

'TU tell you what I told my own children when they came home from the post office . . . most of our military is made up of what they euphemistically call Class 4 individuals, which means that it takes about two weeks to teach them how to sharpen a pencil."

At this, the young collegiates broke in­to tension-shattering laughter. The near confrontation was over. Liddy had them where he wanted them.

"That isn't funny," he admonished, "that's sad. It isn't fair to them or us . . . look at the group pictures taken in World War II . . . look on any side. Look in their eyes . . . you'll see the glimmer of intelligence, the best minds of the age."

He said that with a rising inflection that mustered up all of the rank ego in his audience. After all, weren't they the best minds of their own age?

Now it was time for the kill: "It should be compulsory for the best minds of this generation to do their part and serve their country."

On cue, those who would be compuls­ed - the 'best minds of our generation' gave G. Gordon Liddy a loud roar of ap­proval as if he had just promised them an all-expense paid trip for two to the Bahamas, and not a six-month tour in the fetid jungles of El Salvador.

POWER. If you could bottle him up and sell him as aftershave you could die rich.

Will is the quintessential story of the self-made man. The muy macho visage

on the back cover of the book is all the more charming when you know that he painstakingly assembled himself from a bashful milquetoast to an FBI G-Man.

Straight out of the comic book pages, Liddy is the ninety-pound weakling who listened to Charles Atlas and· went back and got the girl.

Liddy's perspective on life has real ap­peal . . . an indication of just how superficial the role-model changes of our society really are. From his point of view we see John Dean as the tattletale sucking up to Principal Sirica, while the rest of the kids get punished for having some real fun. Boys will be boys, after all .

The problem with all of that is as boys grow up the games get more and more serious. The planned assassination of columnist Jack Anderson is no boyish prank, yet Liddy conceived of Anderson's death in just the same way that he planned to pay hippies to urinate on George McGovern's living room rug.

Yet, he really did intend to do both of those things on behalf of Richard Nixon, and Jack Anderson can thank Charles Colson for his life just as George McGovern can thank John Mitchell for his nose.

The theme of Liddy's lecture is illu­sion, nobody gets out of life alive, and those who would exist in a nasty world should be prepared to do nasty things to keep their corner of it.

He feels that most Americans have "a Holiday Inn view of the world. It comes

to you in a neat paper wrapper that says 'Sanitized for Your Protection.' "

He tells the a dience that we are walking in a bad n ighborhood at an in­decent hour of the morning. We should walk softly but ca ry a Thompson sub­machine gun in on hand.

Liddy is a short l ttle guy, but he looks a lot bigger on stag . An audience of two thousand is no ma h for him .

Before the questi n and answer period he told them: "No we can play Chris­tians and Lions. I'l be the lion." And he lived up to his wor .

Of the few h klers that dared to brave the micro hone against him, there is scarcely bone left for the vultures to pick cle n. He has been daz­ing audiences with this same routine for over a year now, nd at a lecture fee that hovers aroun $3,000, we can rest assured that he has aid more debts than just the one he ow to posterity.

When I asked hi what it felt like to be almost as popul r as Luke and Laura of General Hospit fame, he told me: "This is a job, essen ially the same as be­ing an overland tru kdriver," to which I could only reply th t he must be the en­vy of every truckdr ver from Barstow to Jacksonville.

The clue to the r al significance of G. Gordon Liddy's mi aculous comeback is hidden in the front and back jackets of his book. I have d respectfully broken

Negotiations with company officials have so far been unsuccessful. No lawsuit has 'been filed either.

Connick says "things are about to happen" but refused to say what her future plans exactly are.

According to Lee Ohrt, the chairman of MSC's Aerospace Science depart­ment, the attorney general's office has said that MSC is not financially respon­sible to the students. However he still feels an obligation.

The cold challenging eyes and the aggressive mustache of Liddy offer a dare to anyone fool enough to try and stare down the portrait on the back cover.

The person that first comes to my mind is Buffalo Bill ... Buffalo Bill and his Wild West Show. Long, long ago, in Liddy's tortured childhood, he burned himself, ate the carcass of a rat, elec-

school will take care of these students one way or another."

One of the problems of a corporation going bankrupt - at least for the customers - is that they are the last to receive compensation. Taxes are paid first, wages second and the customers third.

Another stipulation is that negligence , or intent to defraud by corporation of­ficials must be proved before those of­ficials can be held person~ly responsible for corporation's losses.

At this point it is still a civil matter but that status could soon change.

Dean Northrup, of the Arapahoe County Sheriffs Department, has receiv­ed no complaints from any of the MSC

trocuted himself, and had a showdown with a zeppelin (yes! a zeppelin!) all as a part of his grand scheme to become a fighting machine to use against the Ger­mans.

He was deprived of not only that war, but the one in Korea that followed. Like

Buffalo Bill, the age that spawned him had passed into history and left him without purpose.

The portrait of G. Gordon Liddy on the back cover, for all its great power and presence, is made completely

students. He has heard from some other former customers of Pro Flight, though.

Northrup said that on Jan. 28 he talk­ed to two men who had business deal­ings with Pro Flight. One of the men m~y lose up to $20,000 from the pur­chase of an airplane from Pro Flight.

"We are collecting information on it," Northrup said on Monday."If there is some type of criminal activity we will take some action."

Northrup said there may be as many as 30 people with complaints against Pro Flight. He said they are considering combining the cases if necessary. However, he was not yet sure what ac­tion his department will take.

Some sort of action is expected by the end of the week by _MSC.

ridiculous by the addition of a Universal Product Code inserted over the pocket of Liddy's suit jacket ... like a monogram.

I can't help but feel that it's ap­propriate. Buffalo Bill took the Wild West and turned it into a three-ring cir­cus. Can G. Gordon Liddy take American politics and do the same?

SRorts lntramurals: a smorgasbord of activities

by R.P. Bellizzi

The existence - of Intramural and _,._ Recreation Services used to be one of the -~best kept secrets on the Auraria campus.

Not anymore, according to Dick Feuerborn, the program's assistant manager.

"Poople are beginning to realize that we have the best deals around," Feuer-

_: born said. "As for the number of people, particularly women, who have used in­tramurals in the past, I'm disappointed that so few take advantage of the pro­grams available to them.

"I think that's due to the fact that there is some stigma about them not be-

~ ing talented enough, or something. The idea here is that intramurals is for any level that they want to participate in, that's the key. ·

"The idea is to have a good time'.' Feuerborn concluded.

.:: -If the nearly 300 percent increase in intramurals' use during the first week of the semester is any indication, people at Auraria are determined to have a good time.

Feuerborn describes his department's attitude toward recreation as "a

I

.:humanistic approach." He'd like to see · its name changed from Intramurals, which means "within the walls," to Campus Recreation.

, j.

"I think the name Intramurals conjurs up images for some people that are very outdated," the assistant manager said.

Sports All-American honors were recently

~ bestowed upon MSC soccer players Lorne Donaldson, Oscar Lara, and Marcus Motte. Three members of the MSC track team have qualified for the NAIA national meet in Kansas Ci­ty, Feb. 27.

Dave Griffen and Bruce Jenkins both posted times of 1:14.3 for 600 yards, and Charles Blueback ran the mile in 4: 13.8. The mile relay team of Jenkins, Griffen, F.cl Anderson, and Jack Carson placed fifth overall in the

"We offer a virtual smorgasbord of ac­tivities. We let people choose, and then we help them."

Contrary to popular belief, the in­tramurals program is not supported by MSC, but by student fee funds. Each student government allocates funds for one or more of intramurals' activity which makes all students eligible for those services.

Faculty and staff may also participate by paying an initial fee.

The intramurals program involves four areas: drop-in, leagues, vouchers, and clubs.

The drop-in program, the most heavi­ly used, enabl~ people to use the physical education and recreation department's facilities when they are not being. used for class. Fees charged for equipment rental are used to buy new equipment.

Intramurals also organizes and oversees leagues. There will be league play this semester in volleyball and basketball. Team managers will meet next week (Feb. 8-12), so those in­terested should contact intramurals in room 108 of the PER building or call 629-3210 .

During the course of the semester, in­tramurals holds tournaments in such ac­tivities as racquetball, golf, inner tube water polo, floor hockey and wiffleball.

The voucher program is the com­muter campus' answer to the big univer­sity's rec center. Intramurals users m~y

participate, at a discount, in such varied activities as archery, bowling, goU, gun­nery, ice skating, horseback riding, roller skating and skiing.

Participants pay for a voucher card at the intramurals window and then pre­sent it at the particular place where they want to recreate.

Incidentally, intramurals offers lift tickets for Keystone, A-Basin and Loveland at a considerable discount. Tickets are limited to a total of two per week and are available to MSC and UCD people only.

. ,

"If we can't accommodate people here on campus," Feuerborn says, "we'll ac­commodate them somewhere else."

Lakewood Parks and Recreation, as well as Aurora's Beck Center, is cooperating with intramurals to provide Aurarians with recreational facilities.

Clubs and organizations are also be­ing assisted by intramurals in finding competition, facilities and additional members. Feuerborn encourages people with special interests to meet with him

-to discuss how intramurals might become involved.
