Surplus Student Fees SNAFU Noted by Jessica Snyder Reporter, The Metropolitan

When MSC President Brage Golding told student leaders in September they had $360,000 is surplus funds, he did not know that the majority of the money had already been spent.

"We just hadn't put all the pieces together," Budget Officer Tim Greene said.

Golding wasn't told of the impinging

commitments partly because the budget office lacked definite figures, Greene said.

"When he announced the ($360,000) surplus, I figured I'd better add everything up," Greene said.

The revised surplus figures are still only an estimate, Greene said.

In a fact-sheet given to the Student Affairs Board Oct. 3, Greene deducted prior commitments to show only $20,000 in available money.

The same day, the board allocated

$15,000 to MSC's basketball program, leaving $5,000 unspent.

Available money increased again last Thursday when Antonio Esquibel, vice president of student affairs, learned that MSC had been rejected by a federal endowment program. This freed $50,000, which student leaders had pledged to the endowment pro­gram in September, and raised the available reserve to $55,000.

s Job Market Peach For '84- Grads by Susan Skorupa Special to The Metropolitan

BEfHLEHEM, PA. (CPS)-Job pro­spects for this year's college grads look great, the national association of cam­Pll:S placement officers says.

placement exclaims. "It's almost like a return to the days of old. Like five years ago, anyway."

Lindquist, author of the annual Endicott report, another survey of graduates' employment opportunities, notes Northwestern's recruitment calendar is booked far into spring, 1985.

"Companies heavily into recruiting

crease as well, the survey says. "Engineering and technology were

hit last by the downturn, but were the first to recover," Kayser explains.

Retail and service industries also ex­pect to increase hiring significantly.

But firms in the banking, finance and insurance industri~ say they'll hire five percent fewer grads, while electrical machinery and equipment firms expect

Paul of Drew University, which em­phasizes liberal arts.

"Small business will provide expan­ding opportunities for liberal arts students," CPC's Kayser observes. "Almost all new jobs in the last few years were created by small business, compared to the millions of jobs lost by Fortune 500 companies." In its annual survey of Fortune 500

companies, the College Placement Council found the firms plan to hire eight percent more new grads than they did last ·year.

Sixty-five percent of the companies anticipate more economic growth in 1985.

Even the current economic slowdown won't dampen spirits, CPC spokeswoman Judith Kayser claims.

"1985 will be a better year to be coming out of college than 1984. We're expecting the expansion to continue.''

-Judith Kayser

The CPC survey predicts a one per­cent small business hiring decrease, but Kayser notes only a few are represented in the survey.

There are clouds in the hopeful economic outlook, however, Nor­thwestern's Lindquist warns.

"Optimism about next year is cautious, not unbridled," he stresses. "Many major firms are doing little recruitment. Instead, they're trying to protect their old staffs and are express­ing some concern about the second half of 1985.

"1985 will be a better year to be com­ing out of college than 1984," she af­firms. "We're expecting the expansion to continue. We think the slowdown is healthy, and the economy will begin to accelerate .again at the beginning of 1985."

While 1984's spring campus recruit­ment showed healthy gains over 1983, the worst recruitment season in 25 years, career and placement advisors are delighted with the predicted hiring upswing.

"It's good news," Victor Lindquist, Northwestern University's director of

are showing up with more recruiters," he adds.

"Recruitment is definitely up," · agrees Gerry Taneuf, the University of Nebraska's career placement director. "It's not so much in the number of com­panies, but in the number of positions being offered."

The best opportunities exist in com­puter science, accountin~. and elec­trical and mechanical engineering where hiring should increase seven per­cent, the CPC survey shows.

Science, math, and other business and technical categories should in-

-Students Reach out with Hugs by Jeanie Sedgely Special to The Metrapolitan

As many as 50 Denver parents a day leave their most prized possessions in hands of complete strangers.

Some of those strangers are MSC students. But they're no strangers to Katie Love.

!• Love is program coordinatdr of HUGS, a YWCA program unique in the Rocky Mountain states. HUGS puts

parents of sick children in contact with trained college students, who care for the children in the family's home while parents are at work. Parents pay $15 per year to join the HUGS network. The student is paid $4 per hour and guaranteed a four hour minimum. Reduced rates are available for low­income families.

The parents are leery at first about leaving their children with strangeJ'S, Love said, and they want to know

down a resolution on the issue," Boltz said.

At least two new requests will be made at the November S.A.B. meeting, Boltz said, The Health Sciences Career·

·;.. Program is asking for between $4,000 and $5,000 for tutors, and Music Activities also plans on making a re­quest for an undisclosed amount.

'Tm going to make sure they don't get out of the financial committee before we've thoroughly thought them

~·~ out," Boltz said. However, Boltz and others on tQ.e committee may have more money to allocate than previously thought. .

According to Greene the surplus may be larger that the budget office

"-- estimated. "I have to plan for the worst," he

said. If, as Golding suggested, only $100,000 is kept in the shortfall reserve, the spendable surplus would increase by $40,000.

In addition, some of the previously .,,.

committed money has yet to be spent, Greene said.

Although $34,625 was set aside to purchase a bus for athletic and student­activity travel, Greene said, it may cost less.

MSC Legal Services also may not use all of the funds allocated to them. MSC Legal Services was allocated $15, 130 for this year. But instead of retaining

. their own lawyers, MSC had decided to rent legal services from UCO at $29 per hour. Though it is too early in the semester to ascertain, Greene said this will probably leave unspent money to be returned to the reserve at the end of the year.

Enrollment drops may also prove less drastic than anticipated, Greene said.

Greene will make a revised, more ac­curate estimate of funds in mid­November, after seeing the final figures for fall enrollment, he said.

Allowing for rough estimates and variable factors, the available student­fee surplus now ranges between $55,000 and $95,000, Greene said. D

Student Fees MSC's application to a federal

endowment fund has been rejected by the federal government, school .,.. administrators learned last Thursday.

MSC's Student Affairs Bqard had pledged to invest $50,000 to the fund, an investment which would have been matched dollar-for-dollar by a federal contribution. The S.A.B. 's money will

' -. now return to a student-fee fund. Applicant's to the Title III Endow­

ment Fund, which is administered by the U.S. Department of Education, Division of Institutional Development, were chosen by a point system. Points were awarded under three categories:

- Present lack of an endowment fund; past efforts to build an endowment fund; and the amount of money the

school was able to invest, at the time of application.

. MSC scored 102.3 out of 130 possible points, said David Conde, assistant vice president of student affairs. 118 points were needed to qualify.

The government's rejection letter did not state exactly how MSC scored across the three categories.

MSC will be eligible to apply again next September, if the program is still in effect, Conde said.

The federal laws ruling the administration of federal funds for post-secondary schools are due to run out in 1985, Conde said. The new legislation may not include the Title III Endowment Fund in its present form.

Essay Contest Announced An essay contest on the topic "What

is Metro?" is being co-sponsored by the MSC English Dept., the North Central Accreditation Steering Committee, and The Metropolitan. The contest is open to all MSC students.

-. Length and specifications for entries are as follows: Three pages, typewrit­ten, double-spaced, submitted with a

separate page containing author's name, student number, class/year in school, mailing address, and telephone number.

The deadline }Qr submissions is December 3, 1984. Please deliver all entries to KeVin Vaughan at The Metropolitan.

about the students' references and backgrounds.

All student participants complete a one-day orientation covering child development, infant care, emergency first aid, legal responsibilities and asthmatic children. Trainings are held on the third Saturday of each month at­Shield Home Health Care, 1441 Bayaud.

"We attempt to match the student level of competency with the needs of the family," said Love.

Three of the students are bilingual. Another is trained to serve the deaf.

"The caliber of people the program has appealed to have been very respon­sible," she said.

Many students, like MSC junior Mark Easterling, are in health fields. Easterling is a biology major interested

. in going to medical school. He heard about HUGS from a professor and thought the experience would help his career.

"It's a wonderful testing ground," said Love, "and it looks very good on their resumes."

But the benefits go beyond the pocketbook and resume.

The hours are flexible, there is plenty of time to study while the child sleeps, and it gives the Student a chance to see how the family interacts with problems

around a sick child, she said. Easterling said the program would

be a worthwhile experience, even if it was unpaid. And not just for profes­sional reasons.

"I have grown personally from it," he said. "Being a guy, it helped me to break away from the ego trip that only women care for children. I learned a lot about myself and a lot about pa­tience."

Easterling also learned from an 11-year-old Korean boy, who could not speak English, that playing catch can bridge the language gap. And he learned about developing trust with parents from caring for a three-year­old asthmatic.

"Each child is a different experience," he said.

Easterling averaged about 40 hours per month with the program last semester and said he wished he had more time to invest in it.

"I would recommend it-for a guy as well-provided he's open enough to adapt."

A student information session on HUGS is scheduled for 2 p.m. on November 15 in the Arts Building on the Auraria campus. For more infor­mation, students and parents can call the YWCA (825-7141) or 425-LOVE. D

s MSC Roadrunners by Jessica Snyder Reporter, The Metropolitan

At a time when MSC's administra­tion is hard-pressed to convince Denver that life exists on the other side of Cherry Creek, MSC basketball coach Robert Ligouri has garnered the atten­tion of both the media and the business community by promising to bring basketball back to the inner city.

Ligouri, who became Metro's basket­ball coach in February, has been featured in articles by the Rocky Moun­tain News , The Denver Post, Westword, City Edition, Odessey West and La Voz; he's been interviewed on KOA, KNUS and KRXY.

At least 27 local businesses have con­tributed over $20,000 to Metro's basketball program and have bought over 200 season tickets.

their job to help pay their way through school."

Every one of his 15 players are ~n­ners who came from wimifog schools. Ligouri recruited not only from local high schools, but also coaxed five ., reputable out-of-state players to MSC.

But the first two questions that Ligouri says he asks are: "Are you serious about getting a degree? And would you feel comfortable going out into the community (to represent the .~ school)?"

As part of Ligouri's program, the team hold free basketball clinic's for urban youth, grades 5 through 9.

"We're using basketball to teach kids the importance of staying in school."

Ligouri brings a record of graduating 95 percent of his players at Grand View College, a 1,400 student commuter school in Des Moines, Iowa. He also produced winning teams every season

' Local Media have been following MSC's new basketball program with extra zeal lately.

"It's a critical time for Metro," Ligouri said. "Dr. (Richard M.) Fontera's idea for basketball was that it has the potential of giving the college a stronger identity."

Former MSC President Fontera died earlier this year.

"One thing that I think would scare an MSC student -is that, in my cor­porate meetings, two vice presidents of major downtown corporations did not even know that Metro State was a 4-year degree granting institution," Ligouri told student leaders in a letter titled: "Impact of a good basketball program on the average Metro State Student."

"Our program will give the college public recognition and attention," he said.

But Ligouri said his aim is other than turning MSC into·a Big Eight school.

Basketball should help support the college, not the other way around, Ligouri said. The program can bring publicity, school spirit and academic opportunity, he said.

"My players use basketball to get their degree," Ligouri said. "That's

in the eight years he coached there. But no one has seen what Ligouri

will do here. According to NCAA rules, the coach cannot even watch his team play until Oct. 15, the official start of the sea8on.

{

Ligom:i has spent the pre-season • months talking about a team no one has seen that will play for a college only vaguely recognized in its own city. Yet somehow he has caught the attention of both the media and corporate sponsors.

The Rocky Mountain News' Dick _ Conner wrote about "A noble experi­ment ... in the shadows ot our skyscrapers."

Westword's Butch D'Amico said simply: "I do have a warm spot for lost causes."

Elwyn Schaeffer, president of the ... Denver Athletic Club and a member of the Denver Baseball Commwion, saw an opportunity to bring basketball back to the Auditorium Arena.

Schaeffer took a leading role in rais­ing interest among downtown businesses. .-

"It will fill a void in downtown," he cont. on page 5

cont. from page 4

said. "The ~hole city would like to get people back downtown, particularly after-hours/'

When Schaeffer heard of Ligouri's difficulties in bringing MSC's gym up to NCAA standards, he suggested the team play its 14 home games in the Auditorium Arena. The Denver Rockets once played basketball in the arena, Schaeffer recalled.

.)-_, "It's a very good showcase for l:lasket­ball, for the city and for Metro State," he said. "I don't think people are going to realize jwt how much of a shoV'!case until the games start and that gym is reverberating -with lots and lo~ of noise again."

Last spring Schaeffer introduced MSC basketball to the members of the Denver Athletic Club. The club decided to buy season ticlcets and make a $1,000 cash donation .

That donation marked the beginning of the Roadrunners Booster Club, of which Schaeffer is president.

The Booster Club's 27 corporate members have donated an average of $500 each, Ligouri said, with individual donations ranging from $10 to $100.

"But a lot of people are taking a wait-and-see attitude," Schaeffer said. "You've tried this once before, about 7 or 8 years ago, without much success, and there is concern as to whether the students will come out and support this program themselves.''

"That concern was reacted to very positively last week when the students apropriated another $15,000 to the program," Schaeffer added. "That was a good, good step.''

Tlle $15,000 he refers to came from the Student Affairs Board's rapidly diminishing student-fee surplus fund.

At last Wednesday's S.A.B. meeting, Ligouri presented a 5-year projection for the basketball program. In his pro­

. posal, Ligouri said he expects the pro­gram to be self-sufficient within 2 years and will eventually support the entire athletic department.

"When they voted that money, I think we felt like the students were really behind us," said Sports Informa­tion Director Michael Klahr, whose salary this year is also drawn from the S.A.B.'s surplus fund.

"Essentially, the student government is making . a great financial investment," said Dr. Charles Dobbs. the academic advisor to the team. With fundraising and ticket sales, Dobbssaid that basketball may be able to kick­back $15,000 _ annually into MSC athletics.

"How many investments make 100 percent a year?" he asked. Dobb's

involvment with the basketball team goes back to when "Some crazy teacher wrote a letter to Fontera suggesting that basketball and urban coll~ge were a perfect match ... That professor was me. "

Dobbs and Ligouri share an idea to use home game halftimes to promote campus activities and to recognize stu­dent and faculty achievements. Among the special halftimes planned are a Col­orado Scholars night, a club night and a night to honor faculty who have published or received national atten­tion.

"Ho~fully sports reporter's will carry an impression of the school back to their papers ... We're already starting to impress people," Dobbs said.

"We've already won the major bat­tle," Klahr said. "The city knows about us. We are news.'' 0

Where does freedom of speech end and character assassination begin? TheOctober 24., Lg8/, The Metropolitan article, "Professor s Credendals Challenged"reela of sensationalism and raises serious questions regarding your intent inpublishing such a story.^ The issies, purported to justify printing the story, were allegedly issues inFebruary t9af, no1 today. These issues were apparently resolved to the satisfac-tion of tire powers that be at MSC, with professor Hofer's contract renewal beingproof. Did you and your reporter evei fully consider Dr. Burns' motives foriecommending that students not take classes taught by Hofer? Do you have anymore proof of the claims against Hofer than you have of the claims that could be

made against Burns?The duestions you raised regarding Professor Hofer's competency are totally

history, been the advocate of sensational journalism. It has been and will continueto be, a servant to the Auraria community. We are here to shed some light onissues which are important to the students, faculty and staff at all three rchools,and to hopefully give those who wish to inform themselves a tool to do so.

So I asl you, Mr. Mendt, is the fact that there are allegations and counterallegations ilying in the economic departrnent at MSC lot of importance to thestudents?.eftir all, while this l98l report may be nearly four years old, it has onlynow been made public. The Metropolitan was used by persons in the departmentto reach their own ends, and I'll be the first to admit it. But this is an importantstory, probably one of the most important ones we have tackled in the last year.You say the allegations against Mr. Hofer are "Bull." Well I say

-the entire situa-

tion in the department is "Bull." We hold no malice toward Mr. Hofer, and itlrasour intent to provide an accurate chronology of the events surrounding theseallegations and the conflict which has been simmering in the department over thelast ieveral years. Mr. Hofer, however, refused to sit down with us and go over theallegations'to hopefully clear them up. We made the effort to meet withhim-which is only fair in a situation like this-but he refused. And furthermore,Mr. Hofer's attorney, who was supposd to be able to respond to these charges on

-in-structor-while taking classes at MSC. He demonstrates an outstandin-g knowledgeof economics, conducts his classes in a professional manner, and takes an activeinterest in the progress of each of his students, something that we see too rarelytoday.

As for Dr. Stone's concerru trhat Professor Hofer's behavior "poses the danger ofbringing disrepute to Metropolitan State College," I say "Bulll" I am more- con-cern6d *ith the shadow cast by person(s) within Stonds department who feel ittheir duty to supply you with questionable repo.rb and documenb, aut who are so

We did a thorough job, and one outside consultant with 20 plus years ofexperience in the newspaper business went over the storl BEFORE it was printedto make sure everything-was on the mark. IT WAS. The bottom line, as I said

before, is that there is a lot of unethical activity going on in MSC's economics. department, and something has to be done about it.

ir fo. yout assertion of ""questionable journalism by this school's newspaper," Imust point out one other thing Mr. Mendt. While it is true that The Metropolitanis partially funded through student fees Jrom MSC, it is also true that we make upovir two'thirds of our budget through advertising revenue-that's money we

·OP/ED MSC Student Government Assailed

In a recent issue of The Metropolitan a story appeared pertaining to alleged descrepancies in a certain professor's credentials. While his teaching at MSC under alleged false pretenses is certainly abhorrent, even more so is that the administration has known of these alleged descrepancies since early 1981 (ilnd has not acted upon them in a manner befitting a proper institution of higher educa-tion. _ • In light of the difficult times ahead for MSC, this type of leadership displayed by the administration can only hurt faculty or students. This certainly weaken5 MSC's bargaining position in any rrierger negotiations, but more importantly this devalues any degree earn~ from this institution.

It has been s~d that student governing organizations often mirror their counterparts in the administrations of the schools they represent. This would appear to be the case at MSC. ASMSC President, Lisa Espiritu, has displayed a curious policy of non-action. Ms. Espiz:_itu, until last weeks' issue of The Metropolitan, had not had anything published in the student government column of the paper. Another glaring example was documented in a recent issue of The Metropolitan. In an article on the negotiations of the proposed merger of MSC and UCD, Ms. Espiritu, who was scheduled to testify, did not attend because "she had to leave early." This clearly is not the action of an elected servant of the stu­dent body.

'

More glaring, however, are the Machiavellian machinations of David Sutherland, ASMSC Vice-President. While only holding the title of Vice­President, Mr. Sutherland assumes a great deal more power than the title sug­gests. While ~ublicly praising Ben Boltz and Joe DeLeo, he has engaged in a McCarthy esque "witch hunt" against these very gentlemen. The reason given that their GPAs were not in accord with the ASMSC constitution. In spite of ram­pant student apathy there should be no barrier to participation in student govern­ment as far as a GPA of above 2.0, the minimum required to be a student in good standing as MSC. The elimination of Messrs. Boltz and DeLeo, in light of their exemplary records, suggests something .more is afoot.

Mr. Sutherland is quoted as saying in the April 11, 1984 edition of The Metropolitan as saying, " .. .it's bad enough that everyone thinks it's (student government) a joke." It is difficult to take seriously the ASMSC student govern­ment when one looks at the record of the present administration of Espiritu -and Sutherland. We feel the ongoing shenanigans of this administration make it dif­ficult if not impossible to do so. Ultimately this problem lies in the hands of the students. liflS concern for student affairs died on this campus to be replaced by Ingnorance and Apathy? Only you, the student, can say.

I'm writing this letter on the subject of responsible journalism and the article in the October 31st issue of The Metropolitan: "Mismanagement? MSC Student Activities Director Quits" by Mr. David King.

When Mr. King came into the Student Activities office to discuss Student Activities with me, he was very nice and polite and I enjoyed talking with him about a program that I have been deeply involved with for almost four years. We talked for almost an hour, the topics of conversation ranging from the organiza­tional structure of student activities on this campus. Herein lies the problem I

have with Mr. King's article, and more specifically the quotes contained in it. 1 feel that the points I tried most to convey in talking with Mr. King were not even alluded to in the final print. Not mentioned in the article was the fact that I felt, in my experience, that the presence of a professional Assistant Director to assist the Special Events Coordinator was the most effective way to manage Student Activities, NOT that the present Director is "ineffective" I also emphasized that Ms. Johnson's job description, written by students last year, does not include pro­gramming, but a wide range of other administrative duties which were mad~ clear to Mr. King. He informed me that he had a copy of the job description.

It greatly distresses me that bits and pieces of the conversation were reported as quotes which completely distorts the intent of the conversation I had with Mr. King. Needless to say, I would very much appreciate it if The Metropolitan would send over a COMPETENT journalist, willing to write a story concerning the "ef­fectiveness" or "ineffectiveness" of Student Activities which does NOT include malicious "quotes" contrived to enhance the sensationalism of the story.

And one more thing. Christopher Dahle was N~ER employed by the MSC Student Activities Office and therefore had no authority to plan-programs in the name of Student Activities. A proposal stating the interest of University Hospital in sponsoring a Halloween party with Student Activities was never brought to the attention of any Student Activities staff member.

DU Play Amusing by Tom Deppe Reporter, The Metropolitan

French playwright Jean Giraudoux's indomitable faith in the basic goodness of mankind, even in theface of the Nazi occupation of Paris, is at the heart of his comedy 'The Madwoman of Chaillot' now being presented by the University of Denver theatre department.

1943 shortly before his death, is a whimsical, allegorical fairy tale of good against evil. It is set in Paris, and revolves around the conflict between the forces of evil, personified by the greedy, amoral COIJ}pany president and his business associates, and the better side of mankind, represented by a col­orful group of oddball characters led by Countess Aurelia, "The Madwoman of Chaillot."

"The Madwoman of Chaillot," which was written by Giraudoux in

vinced by the opportunistic prospector that there is oil beneath the Chez Francis cafe terrace and that he has the perfect plan to get at it. Their plotting is constantly being disturbed by a humorous assortment of st reet characters, symbolizing the lighter side' of mankind, who drift in and out of the cafe setting .

Enter Countess Aurelia (played by Linda Teslow) whose title "Madwoman of Chaillot" is belied by her daffy logic," which in reality makes her the sanesr ­one there. Right away we realize that Aurelia is the beloved leader of this happy-go-lucky group of people, and the one who will take on the corporate forces of evil as they plot to destroy this happy neighborhood in their search for profits and power. ·

Will Aurelia and her merry group of free spirits succeed in thwarting the evil ' intentions of the corporate powers-will good triumph over evil? The rest of the two- act play concerns itself with the answer to those questions-. as the two groups engage in some hilarious confrontations. ' Teslow as Countess Aurelia displays an imposing presence throughout the play. However, she is upstaged by her other "Madwomen" compatriots in a tea party scene. She comes off as" positively strait-laced in comparison to Mme Constance (Leslie Gray) with her imaginary dog, Dickie, and Mme. Gabrielle (Mercedes Magee) with her canaries and imaginary voices. Stacy Carson as the ragpicker, also displays, an agile comedic talent in the play, particularly in the scene where he takes the part of the corporate men as they are tried in absentia by Aurelia and Mme. Josephine (Mira Hirsch) .

Giraudoux's witty observations on ' human nature come to life in the play's' dialogue, and are as relevant now as they were in 1943. One wonders if he wasn't a closet feminist back then as Aurelia utters her pivotal line, "Nothing is ever so wrong in this world that a sensible woman can't set right in. the course of an 8.f ternoon."

Director Merideth Taylor, and the DU theatre department have put together a well-staged production of "The Madwoman of Chaillot". It is well worth seeing one of these upcom­ing weekend nights.

"The Madwoman of Chaillot" will be performed Novelllber 9-11 and 15-17 in the Little Theater of Margery Reed Hall, S.

She remembers those humble beginnings playing with garage bands and doing country/western gigs outside Witchita, Kansas as she and her groups twanged about the midwest music circuit. She arrived in Denver six years ago and survived by playing for tips on the Boulder Mall or at the Stapleton Airport. It was then that she encountered jazz and readily admits, it "swept me off my feet. "

And now it appears that Charla Bevan has found her musical niche. Her repertoire includes the pure jazz of Duke Ellington and Billy Holiday in addition to some "straight ahead" jazz and all of which is interlaced with her own original material. Add to this Charla's own admission of working with "the best musicians in town" and you have the Charla Bevan Band. The Band, which may, in fact, come close to her description is made up of Tony Black on drums, Larry Hinley on bass, and Glen Collins at piano. These musi­cians are genuinely adept at their craft and form the quality backbone for Bevan's vocals-. Their improvisation is precise and tight, in contrast to the seemingly never-ending improvisa­tional style of some jazz musicians that often leave you wondering where the melody went as they dreamily waft away into oblivion. Not so with this

band. Rather, the; r musical blend allows the listener to both be mellow and yet remain intrigued and attentive.

And then there's Charla. With eyes bright and body rigid, she skitters across stage in her vintage garb topped off with a black beret under which flows a head of wispy blond hair. Her

• powerful vocals command the atten­tion of her audience. She puts forth her own unique style with everything from re-worked Joni Mitchell to the more established or traditional styles of Thelonious Monk or Duke Ellington . Add to that some Ray Charles and you have a concert with the well-rounded flavor of which she seeks in her musical

productions. So if you're looking for a pleasant

evening out and need a break from the rock scene, you might just give this lady a try. Yuppie or no, you will probably emerge from the concert with a greater appreciation of jazz and enjoy the sometimes sleek sometimes sassy renderings of The Charla Bevan Band . But don't expect merely a mimic of styles that have emerged before. This band is an original and will continue to make a significant mark on the emerg­ing jazz scene in Denver.

The Charla Bevan Band will be per­forming at The Oxford Hotel, 1600 17th St., December 1-5. D

Mines Ends MSC' s Year Flag Football Standings

by Curt Sandoval Sports Editor, The Metropolitan

The thrill of winning, the agony of defeat ... sport competition ... it offers a lot of heart stopping action, spec­tacular play and memories of last minute victories.

But at the end of- every sport season there are disappointments, because in the end, there can be only one true champion.

In the end tea~ are trying to survive every post season game in hopes of supremecy.

But ask Metrv's mens soccer team about the other Side ofthe coin,-a loss in the playoffs, and the answer you'll get will be that of major disappoint­ment and questions of what happened.

The Roadrunners headed into the

NAIA District VII Tournament last .veekend in Golden with a lot of motivation. They had won three games in a row and were the second in the tournament.

Metro was scheduled to play the· number three seed, the Colorado School of Mines, a team the Roadrun­ners man-handled two weeks ealier.

But Metro may have been looking ahead to the finals as Min~ posted a shocking 3-0 upset to win.

"We didn't deserve to win," said head coach Harry Temmer. He added that he felt that Mines didn't play a great game as well. Temnier said that Metro didn't pass well in the midfield and the players couldn't get their con­nections tog;ether.

Mines lead at the half 1-0. Senior Dan Coffey said even though the team

John Labatt took over a bre~ery in 18~7 and began to make Canadian beer his

way. It was the beginning of Canada's Beer.

Discover Canada's best kept secret. The perfectly balanced taste between robust European lagers and lighter American beers.

The perfect beer. Labatt' s . . . born of a dual heritage combining the hearty characteristics of European brewing tradition and the mellow taste of finer American beers. A perfect taste ... less heavy than the

' '

had been playing poorly in the first half, everyone felt that they were still in the game.

"In the second half we played even worse, I don't know what happened," Coffey said. Mines scored two more

times in the second h~ to take a 3-0 win and shut the Roadrunners down for the remainder of the season.

While Coffey said he did not have anything positive to say about the game he felt the team had a good season. With the help of assistant coach Loren Donaldson, the team has learned a .lot of composure on the field, Coffey said. "I respect him for what he's done this year."

In the tournament, DU beat top seeded Regis to face Mines in the finals held on Saturday. DU then beat Mines 4-1 to represent the district at the regional tournament next week. 0

The MSC women's soccer team, -Louis because the new athletic bus that dispite it's 5-9-1 record, is going to was purchased has not yet been receiv-Regionals. Now if you think the NFL ed and it is too risky to take one of the playoff picture can get confusing, wait old vans on a trip that far. until you see this.

While most tournaments are run over a two or three day period, the Regional Tournament will be run over a three weekperi~.

"Because of the way they set it up, it could be costly for us," athletic director Bill Helman said.

The lady Roadrunners will travel first to St. Louis to play the winner of the Missouri Baptist and Lindinwood College game. Metro automatically ad­vanced to the tournament because they are the only intercollegiate team from their district. ·

Now, the women will be flying to St.

So let's say the women win that first game, then they'll play the winner of Quincy College and Wilmingtorr Col­lege. But not until the following week. If Quincy wins, the game will be here in Denver, but if Wilmington wins, once again the ladies will be destined to St. Louis.

So now let's say the women win that game as well, then it's time to go to Nationals. And yes, you guessed it, the National Tournament is in St. Louis.

Helman said if the women win the first game they will be doing fundrais­ing for the following game(s).
