~ensorship1. Bookstore Bans .Skin Magazines

BOULDER, CO (CPS)-If Penthouse magazine readers overrun newsstands in January searching for the second series of nude ex-Miss America photographs, they'll avoid the Univer- .

•sity of Colorado-Boulder boolcstore. On August 17 ,_ Tom Cruff, CU's

boolcstore trade book manager, banned Penthouse, Playboy, Playgirl and other "skin" magazines from the raclcs when Penthouse published nude photos of

~former Miss America Vanessa Williams in its September issue.

The Williams controversy, which r~ emerged last week when Penthouse publisher Bob Guccione announced his magazine plans to publish more photographs of the former Syracuse

~University student engaged in various sexual activities, has accelerated . previously- building pressure on magazine sellers on several campuses to pull certain publications from their shelves. · ·

In the days after Penthouse announ~ }-.ed it would publish the first set of

photos, for example, some Ohio State students joined demonstrators asking Columbus boolcstores to drop the skin magazines.

Students at the University of Min­.ii)lesota also renewed !heir campaign to

get bookstores around campus to drop the magazines.

Efforts to rid camp~ of sex­oriented media, both printed and film­

.._ ed, are not new, of course. · In 1980, Antioch University removed

skin magazines from its racks when feminist groups thr_eatened to boycott the campus boolcstore

Last spring, students at the Universi­ty of California-Davis and the Univer-

1'""Sity of Masachusetts-Amherst also threatened boycotts to rid their bookstores of the magazines, but the attempts failed.

In June, the University of Hawaii student government voted down a bill

..._to ban the campus sale of magazines and postcards featuring nudes. A month earlier, the University of Virginia student Government junked a similar proposal because it smacked of cen5otship.

Colorado, in fact, is one of the few -schools actually to implement a ban.

"It was a buyer's decision to remove part of a certain line, not censorship in any form," says Colorado's Cruff.

The ban, effective the last day of CU' s summer semester, has produced _little student reaction, but Cruff claim~ "''everyone else is happy with the deci-

KRMF, 89.0 FM Radio Station Put on Hold by Robert Davis Reporter, The Metropolitan

A full FM spectrum _and inadequate equipment on campus pushed the pro­posed student radio station, KRMF, aside lending efforts to a campus cable network.

The FM public spectrum falls bet­ween 88.f and 92 on the dial, and MSC Student Senator Ben Boltz said it would cost at least $150,000 to get on the air in that range of frequencies. .

" It would cost $30,000 to $40,000 just to study the situation of wave pat­terns over the city," Boltz said.

And, a transmitter powerful enough to compete on a crowded FM range of frequencies would cost at least $30,000, according to Boltz.

"This would be whatever · the students wanted it to be, all of the different depart­ments use the media center anyway. It's just a matter of tying together available resources." -Ben Botlz

ASMSC Senator

He said there is a need for a com­munication medium that is run for and by the students.

"We have 811 of the resources needed for cable ·an campus now," Boltz said . "All we would need is some televisions in the student lounges."

The campus is currently wired with cable for easy access to audio/visual aids. Patricia Breiuik, director of the Auraria library and Murial Woods, director of the media center have urged the Student Facilities Policy Council, currently considering the idea, to pur­sue the proposal's early phases.

RTD Offers Pass Discounts AaRauia S-ca·()ea-c Cea-ceu

Loweu CoRRi()ou

The Regional Transportation District Board of Directors voted to

• give adult students discount rates. on bus passes, board member William Rourke announced last Wednesday.

The 33 percent reduction is a drop from $24 to $16 for a monthly pass.

The passes should be available in the , Auraria BOok Center by October 15, _,-Rourke said.

RTD has had student discounts for many years, but the rates were not available to adult students. Rourke said he thinks adult students deserve as much help as any other student.

.i:: "A lot of people going here (Auraria) are adults and are scratchµig to go to

school." Rourke - said, "This is a downtown campus, what beter way to get here than by bus?"

"All but four routes in the RTD originate, terminate, or pass through Auraria," Rourke siiid. "those other four are easily reached with the Lawrence shuttle."

Rourke said ASMSC Senator Ben Botlz contributed to the ruling by sen­ding some "strong letters" to the board.

The new program will be reviewed by the RTD monthly in terms of the number of adult stucfent passes sold. A final review in six months will deter­mine if the program will continue. D

Cruff says he had long considered the ban, and the Williams photos finalized his decision.

The CU outlet sold 30 to 50 copies monthly of both Penthouse and Playboy, but Cruff maintains the ban won:t affect sales figures.

"We hear about things like the CU ban and we're not happy about them," states Leslie Jay, a Penthouse spokeswoman. "Basically, it's a form of censorship."

The controversial September issue , sold well over five million copies, Jay claims.

"It was our all-time best seller," she adds. "For the first time in 15 years, we went back to press a second time."

Student .Center Improved Over Break by Michael Ocrant Newa Editor, The Metropolitan

More than $30,000 has been spent improving the Student Center since last spring, with many of the noticable changes evident in the Gameroom.

" The funds to pay for the improvements came partly from that portion of Student Center bond fees reserved for general operations and maintenance of the building, accor­ding to Gar Vance, assistant director of

,. the Student Center. Profits gained in operating the Stu­

dent Center, including the game room, where a major part of the money was

~- MSC to Examine School Workings

During the coming school year an on-camp\Vi task force will be conduc-

,. ting a self-study of MSC, examining every aspect of the school's program$, operation, environment and educa­tional effort.

The findin~ of the task force will be published in June of 1985 and will be presented to the North Central Associa­tion of Colleges and Schools-which is responsible for giving certification that institutions of higher education meet certain standards.

The NCA will use the report as a preliminary report to its own on­

..r campus investigation of the school dur­ing the spril'lg of 1986.

Metro's last full-scale on-campus investigation took place in 1976, at which time the NCA accreditied MSC for ten years-the maximum any institution can receive.

According to Jan Delasara, a member of MSC's English Department and the chair of the steering commit­tee, the task force is hoping to involve members of every segment of the col­lege community in the preperation of the report. ·

"We would like to have students, faculty and staff on every one of these committees," Delasara said. "The more full our research is, the better our report will be."

The task force is broken into a series , of committees to study the instruc­

tional, human, physical, and financial resources of the college, as well as the institutional dynamics.

Delasara said the committees are planning to draw up a preliminary draft of the report, which will be ex­

"' amined and then revised before the final report is turned over to the NCA.

"We should have the rough draft of this report done in March," Delasara said. "Then we are going to circulate the report to anyone who wants to see

,, it and begin soliciting feedback."

At the present time, there are still positions open on the committees, and there will be an orientation and social hour on Wednesday, September 5 from 2 to 3 p.m., in room 330 A of the.Stu­dent Center. 0

spent, paid for some of the costs, Vance said.

New carpeting in the game room was installed for $10,000, Vance said, and another $4,000 to $7 ,000 was spent renovatin2 2ame room office space.

The new carpeting, he said, replaced the stained and burned carpeting laid eight years ago when the Student Center opened.

A better quality, maroon colored carpeting was chosen this time, Vance said, to hide damage caused by spilled food and drink, and dropped cigaret­tes.

Another $1,500 was spent on game room supplies, such as maple pool cue sticks, which, Vance said, lasts longer than other cue stjcks.

Most of the expenditures were for normal maintena.nce, repair and replacement, Vance said.

In addition, he said, $2,000 was spent releveling and resurfacing the pool tables.'

In addition to game room improvements, he said, another $15,000 went for buying furniture to add around the Student Center.

The new furniture should arrive in a few weeks, Vance said. Television sets were also purchased, and three sets will be put in the Mission lounge in the Stu-

iust a real special experience," sa$University of California at Santa Bar-bara student Karen Rosenquist, recall-ing the 1984 Olympics and the scores ofathletes who were housed on herseaside campus during the event.

"The campus was so lestive andwarm. We were all like a big family.There was a spirit of cooperation andcs,maraderie that I've never seen

before," the French and English majorrecalls.

"We were thrilled to. be involved,"says UCSB spokeswoman Joan _

lndeed, UCSB housed over l,(X)O ofthe rowing, canoeing and kayakingathletes involved in the games.

UCLA was home for 4.400 athletes,while USC housed a whopping 6,800Olympic competitors.

"Overall, the Olympics had a verypositive impact on our campus,"reports UCLA Olympic CoordinatorDuane Hickling.

"We were very, very pleased witheverything," concurs Norm Miller,director of USC's Olympic office."Our village was very popular with theathletes, and everything wentexceedingly well."

Things on all three campuses, infact, seemed to go "exceedingly well"despite earlier fears of students beingevicted from their apartments, massivetraffic jams, rent gougng, disruptedsummer sessions and a crime wave.

UCSB had " almost as manyemployees and volunteers as we didathletes," Magruder says. "And sincewe were the smallest Olympic Villageof the three, we had a little more con-taot betwe€n athletes and students." '

In the probess, "we got our dormsand some of our buildings remodeledand recarpeted" cgurtesy of the Olym-pic Committee, she adds.

Convention Center· ConcernS Student To The Editor and All Auraria Students:

I have twice reported in this paper of two important issues: Reporting on items of importance to the students, and the question of validity of writing a new stu­dent constitution.

Today, a new issue of vital concern has cropped up which will involve you the students with a further problem involving the Auraria parking lots. It was

~ reported in the Aug. 21, 1984 "Denver Post" that an area bounded by Wazee­Speer-Larimar-Ninth is being considered for use as a possible site for a convention center. ·

This possible action would involve the loss, according to a map in the "Post," of at least lots T, R, and S, and might also lose the use of the athletic fields badly needed by Metropolitan State College's Physical Education Department and other

~ on-campus and community groups. The number of parking spots lost would be 830 of these hard-to-get spots.

The Metropolitan has had many such articles published on the parking mess and they may have to run yet another of these if the planners of this proposed site get their way. This must not happen!

Prominent in the Gary Delsohn-. story was AHEC's own Jerry Wartgow, executive director, who, quoted in the story, stated:

"All kinds of creative things can happen with creative, people," and we cancer­ta\nly make better use of that property than surface parking. We know that."

He did mention that he would have to gain approval for the idea from the Auraria board and from the state legislature if this site is the one considered for this center.

Students, I do not feel this approval should be given as the future of the campus as an active participant in the education field would become jeopardized.

What will they think of next? Take away some classrooms or take away the stu­dent cel'lter?

This situation is, and will always be to me, quite unacceptable and I am hoping that this will be unacceptable to all of you.

So to conclude this message: Dear Auraria Students, please write letters of pro­test to The Metropolitan and to your state legislators in order to stop this proposed action. Let's keep this campus' aim for educational development alive and keep the real estate hounds out. Finally, this campus remains for the studentS not for the government bureaucrats to play with.

Dear Editor: Our U.S. Constitution-God Bless It-is a vague document, wrought with

ambiguity; though, regarding an armed populace, the intention is clear. As stated in the Second Amendment, "the right of the people to keep and bear

arms" is a conditional right, justified (exclusively) by the need to provide for a common defense. "A w~ll-regulated militia" is what the founding fathers originally called for. They envisioned a de-centralized defense system, remotely similar to the National Guard, as a substitute for a large and centralized standing army. As it turns out, we have both, and, so it seems, the common defense is more than well-provided for.

To deduce from the Second Amendment that handgun control is illegal, or undesirable, is to strain one's interpretation of the Constitution. The fact that hundreds of thousands of U.S. citizens have been gunned down with these

· weapons is critical, while the wee value handguns may have in providing for the security needs of our nation. is insignifican~.

Washington was correct when he said we should never leave government to irresponsible action. However, in 1984, it would be a totally responsible act of government to help end murder at the hands of pistol-toting terrorists.

I believe it is time for defense-oriented, anti-gun control activists to let go of the handgun issue, and concentrate on what must surely be a more important cause-that of exploring their right to automatic weapons, rocket launchers, and other implements suitable for the common defense.

Well, the first crisis of the ASMSC is at hand. Jody Blake of the HMTA club visited the Student Government office last week with a simple club type request. She wanted money. "This is typical action for a club. There is about $20,000 of your student taxes which is allocated to the Club Affairs Committee (CAC) of the Student Government to spread around to clubs. So, I had to explain to Jody that she couldn't get any money for the HMTA club because the funds have been frozen. Why? Well, the CAC, under the pressure and tutelage of various liberals aro~d here, has decided to change all the rules for club funding. This rules changing has been going on since April. And they aren't finished yet. This means that clubs will just not get any money for awhile. Sorry Jody.

Let me tell you what all the clubs that happen to want money soon can do about it. Scott Brown is the chair of the CAC which is doing the rules changes for club funding. Ben Boltz is the chair of the Financial Affairs Committee which keeps track of spending of all student fees. Either one of these gentlemen senators would be more than happy to hear from any and all of your club's members. They both can be reached at the MSC Student Government Office Room 340C in the Student Center.or call 629-3253 and leave them a message. They're supposed to be serving your interests so a gentle reminder may be in order.

A special note to Dave Olsen. The Prince of Darkness has been banished from the campus. If he returns I'll deal with him personally. So don't worry. But, if the Dwarves show up you're on your own.

· The Senate had its first meeting of the fall last week. The senators passed a no smoking ordinance for Senate meetings, a resolution praising AHEC for the new trolleys and proclaiming September 13 and AHEC day, approving two new Judicial Board members and forcing the Executive Branch to provide all the Senators a phone line for their personal use. So as you can tell all is normal with Student Government.

A special thanks to Dr. Rodriguez and his staff for making registration as painless as possible. Those folks try real hard to take care of all the students.

Raul Gomez, Director of Administrative Services for AHEC, and Steve Riley, Parking Referee, have a number of true stortes about the amazing-and with all tb_ings 00..­sidered, maybe less than amaztng­abilities of college students coping with the experience of a parking ticket.

.. I had an intereSting case that I · handl4!d here ~t • 1.D9'-th ago, .. Comet-said. "I WU i&:tny Office and I heard a ruokm out at the (front) win­dow. Whenever that haJ>Pens I try to come out like the oavahj to reinforce the clerk.

· • "There was this young man who was raising h:ell because his girl-friend's oar had been towed away. I looked at all the information that the clerk had compiled and there were something · like $250 ln outstanding citations ...

.. I took a lot of time to explain to this individual that we do have rules and regulations and ... (they) are handed out to everybody who registers their vehicle to park on campus.••

"I replied to him that no, we're not a fascist operation. There have to be rules and regulations or there would be mass pandemonium."

Conversing further with the man Gomez found out that the referee had halved the fines, down to $250.

"When your girlfriend started get- .

Gomez said "I explained that bet amusing the $250 citations, she wu depriving other tndlviduals of parking legally. And she, In ssence, waived her parldng rights when she wu parking illegally.

"Obvtoualy he Wiii not satisfied. He stormed off questioning my legitimacy• on this earth.''

"It was intensttng because that was an example of an individual who had gone through thie proc111, obviously wasn't a casual violator-which can happen... . .

Gomez explained that there are three options for anyone who 11'11 a ticlret.

One: Do not OODlelt the ticket and pay right away.

Two: Appeal It, and the process, depending on the type of citation, can allow either a written appeal or require: a penonal appearance before a referee. The majority require a personal appearance.

Three: Thia happens when you ignore three or more tic&ts and they tow your car. .

Gomez estimated that during alt' average week 1,000 to 1,500 citatloas are written for the 5,000 parking ...,. servtng 32,000 .._.,rat AUrida. 1'.'R'-.... 1 "

"But, you have to temper that with the understanding that we will par}t anywhere &om 15,000 to 00,000 cars per day on campus, .. he said. "So when you extend that utilization (you can see) that a considerably small percen­tage are caught breaking the rules."

"I'd say 303 to 40% (of ticketed students) pay right up, .. Gomez said.J "Uncontested. No grief. That's not including the appeals."

Another approximation of Gomez's was that 25 % of the people who appeal still don't pay-regardless of the Ottt­come.

What happens when your car is tow:' ed?

Well, a number of things. Before the vehicle can be released all the citations mwt be paid. You may appeal the cita­tions and pay the reduced amount or pay in full and then appeal and get~ refund of any amount reduced or void-

Packed Mismon Hosts Mullins' Music by D.J. Owens Entertainment Editor, The Metropolitan

So on Friday afternoons, the Mmion is the place to be. Granted; there usual­ly aren't any seats available, but once in awhile the goings-on is worth stan­ding for.

Last Friday it was MSC Student Activities' turn to provide the enter­tainment and Rob Mullins was brought in .. Although the acoustics didn't do him justice, the music was a touch too loud, and the place smelled as though at least one person had just a little too much to drink, the crowd did enjoy . three stylish sets of highly colored, jazz improvisation. People were actually taking their Walkmans off I ·

Mullins, on a keyboard synthesizer, provided a clear distinction between notes while retaining his teeth-rattling, machine gun tempo. The band was

tight, and Mullins was somewhat in the background considering the persistent drumming and playful bass of Darrin Johnson and Marty Ruddy.

I had the great pleasure to talk to Rob between sets and I wholeheartedly agree with one thing he said: "Music is awfully hard to describe."

Harmony is a good word. It applies to music as well as life in general. Judg­ing by Mullins' tremendous grinning, one gets the sense that he has as much harmony in his life as he does on stage. This guy was having too much fun!

One. of the major people responsible · for the harmony was the impeccable

Laura Newman on sax. She added that distinctive touch that separates the second-rate bands from the big leaguers. Alternating between a soprano and an alto sax, Newman was ~m time, balanced, and playing from the heart. Usually songs without vocals will sometimes seem to have a certain void. Newman filled that void with a sax that wailed like something tor­tured.

Indeed the big leagues can't be that far off for Rob Mullins and company. His third album, Fired Up, will be in the stores this week. It shows a totally different creature than the one who played the Mission last Friday.

On Fired Up Mullins' fingers run around on a piano instead of a syn­thesiur. That's the difference. The sound on the album is aimed at an older, more traditional crowd. The pi~o is his forte, and Fired Up showcases some talent that may just take some people in L.A. by the ear. Newman's sax is there, and her David Sanborn style shines on vinyl as much

My eyes

Tuneful Newman on the Sax

as it does in person. Fired Up is a cheer{ul ttlbum. The

talent is certainly there, but it lacks _, much of the feeling so prevalent at a live show. Mullins climbs an emotional hill only to stop at the apex and turn away. Missing is the reckless ingre­dient. He needs to let loose and not pull any punches. If he could fire that machine gun piano at something, he'd " stand a better chance of causing more of an effect.

At least the excitement level of Fired Up is high, and the album does bear a very professional quality. This is mainstream, acoustic jazz, flavored with just a seasoning of funk.

The next opportunity to see Rob Mullins live will be at the Regas Mediterranean Cafe, 4040 E. Evans. They'll be the house band for the next four weeks.

~Night Ranger: Band for ·. the 80s by Chris Deutsch . · Entertainment Writer, The Metropolitan

Night Ranger's lead vocalist Jack Blades 'grabbed the microphone and

L___ shouted out to the crowd, "You get bet­~ ter-every time!" The very same thing [ could be said for Blades and the rest of

Night Ranger. They made their first Denver

appearance a couple of summers back, opening a show for Sammy Hagar at

_ the Denver University Arena. They , returned late this spring for two sold out shows at the Rainbow Music Hall, and last Friday they came back to Red Rocks Amphitheater for another· sold out show. With the current popularity of these guys, and the reputation their

',. live show has earned, it's a good bet that next time through Denver they'll be packing McNichols Arena.

It would be ea.sy to dismiss this Bay Area quintet as the latest adaptation of the R.E.O. Speedwagon/Loverboy rock n' ;roll formula, but such is not the

·• case. The band has only two albums out, and when they played at the Rain­bow earlier this year, only three of their tunes even had radio play.

Last time around Night· Ranger put on a great show, but the months of touring have only made things better. In particular Kelly Keagy seems much more comfortable with his dual role as drummer and vocalist. On tun~ like "Sister Christian," \le en~¢ by trading his drums for a spot behind the microphone. While behind the drums

Night Ranger is unique in that they have two lead guitarists-Brad Gillis and Jeff Watson. Gillis is the flashiest

f of the two, and the band's biggest ham. liJt.. He got a lot of exposure during a short

stint touring as the lead guitarist with Ozzy Osborne, replacing the legendary Randy Rhodes. Watson is the more melodious of the two, and his style nicely complements Gillis's flying

~ fingers style. The band's first album, "Dawn

Patrol" was well ·represented, including the singles "Sing Me Away" and the tune which really broke the

Brad Gillis plucks ... band, "Don't Tell Me You Love Me." Last time through Denver, Gillis explained the success of the song, which he said was based on a great lyric ·line for the 80's; "Everybody wants to fool around and have a good time, but the next morning, don't tell me you love me!"

The songs off the newest album came later in the show, including "Sister Christian," "When You Close Your Eyes," and "Rumors In The Air." Jade Blades pulled out a striking red, white, and blue striped Explorer bass for the bands' encore "Rock In America."

Opening the.-Show was Rail, the Seattle band which easily won the . MTV Basement Tapes competition last summer.

This is another band that's going to make it vefy big. The video show opened with "Hello", the video which made it on cable and the band put on a short, fast paced set which -included "Fanrasy," "Back Seat Lovers" and their current hit, the

~SPO~~{~IE~~~~~~~~~ MSC Takes Kickers Totimament

The MSC men's soccer team put on a defensive extravaganza at the Kickers Club Tournament in Golden. The Roadrunners went 4-0 during the tour­nament and didn't give up a single goal.

The unique aspect about MSC is that, while most teams are lead by just one goalie, MSC has three.

Mike Fehr, a returning sophmore let-

terman, was goalie in the first game and lead MSC to it's first victory of the tournament with a 2-0 win over Foothills. Then, Sheridan High School graduate Doug Lazecld took over the goalie position as Metro posted a 3-0 win over the Veterans.

On Sunday, Paul Coffey took the goalies box as MSC continued its winn­ing ways and beat the Brewers 2-0 . .

Fehr an Lazecld shared the goalie duties in the final game against the Texas All-Stars in which Metro posted its fin8:1 victory 3-0.
