The Mercantile's beer license expired on November 28 and~ ac­cording to John Crowell, the state sent notification 45 days prior to the expirat;ion date.

"I pushed it (the Mercantile's license renewal application) back because at the time I didn't want to spend the money,.. John Crowell said, "then, quite frank-

Crowell tried to re-apply for a li­quor license. He took the paper-_ work and check to the Excise and License Department. At that time, he -was informed that because he was representing a corporation, a lawyer was re­quired to be present.

Not fully understanding and comprehending the new technicalities in the legal process, Crowell misunderstood what was required.

,News ~ CCD wants new image· with· new name

, . ... by Kevin Vaughan

Community College of Denver, in ·''* order to eliminate confusion and create

a new identity, is changing the names of its three campuses effective July 1.

CCD-Auraria will assume the name Denver Auraria Community College, CCD-North campus will become Front Range Community College, and CCD

.. Red Rocks campus will become Red Rocks Community College.

CCD-Auraria Vice President Myer Titus said the main purpose of the name change is to give each campus its own image in the community.

~ "I think having our own name to refer to will really go a long way in creating a new identity," Titus said.

When Titus came to Auraria a year and a half ago, he saw staff and faculty from all three campuses get recognition

CCD-A Vice President Myer Titus under the name Community College of Denver.

The new names of the schools should

help bring some clarity between the three schools, Titus said.

In May of 1982, a task force made a report to the State Board of Community Colleges and Occupational Education which resulted in the decision to carry out the name change.

An all-out effort to publicize the new names will be made- in the spring so there will be as little confusion as possi­ble come July 1.

"We have become known as CCD­Auraria," Titus said. "It is important for us to publicize our new name."

The three schools will carry their own logos on all materials, with secondary identification as "Community College of Denver System."

The change will not have a lot of other effects, other than the logos and materials. Students that currently at­tend two of the campuses will not be af­fected at all.

"I don't see a lot of other changes," Titus said. For example, entrance re­quirements, rules and regulations, and transcripts will stay as they are now.

CCD hasn't finalized a deal with the firm that will design the logo, but all art work should be done by the end of March, said Lynnzy Orr, community relations coordinator of CCD.

The new logos will be seen for the first time on CCD's catalog, which will be available on May I. May I through June 30 will be a transition period when the new name will be phased in.

During that time, all of the old · materials (stationery carrying the old

name and logo) will be used up, and materials with the new name and logo will appear.

That should have a two-fold effect, Titus said. · First, it will save money by using all old material up, and second, it will help people to associate the new names with the institutions. 0

·Clinic ·space loss effects-detailed · Because of the reduction of space.

available to the MSC Health Clinic, clinic directors have had to evaluate ser­vices and programs to determine what the effects of the decrease space will be on the Auraria· population.

Clinic director Betty Jo Collard recently issued a statement · detailing which services will be affected.

In addition to reducing the number of patients the clinic will see, Collard said, a planned increase in clinic staff will not be implemented. However, since the Student Health Clinic was established and is primarily funded by MSC student fees, Collard said she feels the loss of space should not affect MSC students.

Therefore,· several changes have been ,. made hi regard to populatiom utilizing

the clinic. Students, faculty and staff who will be affected by the changes will include:

•ucn and CCD students, who will face a reduction in the number of students treated at the clinic.

,.. •ucn and CCD· faculty and staff, who will no longer by able to ~ the

clinic. AHEC staff members will also be unable to receive treatment.

•MSC students, faculty and staff will not be affected and will continue to receive services "as needed.

The MSC Student Health Clinic will continue to provide care for anyone on the Auraria campus who walks into the clinic requiring -emergency first aid.

Clinic services that will no longer be available to any student, faculty or staff member include biofeedback · training and therapy.

Services that will continue but will reduce in the number of participating students include:

*Nurse practitioner preceptorships.

•cardio/pulmonary resuscitation cer­tification program - Priority will be given to MSC students/faculty/staff, with all other populations attending on space available basis.

*Six-week weight seminar and .health education campus seminars - Priority. granted to MSC students; others will be admitted on space-availability basis.

•student advocate program - will

continue, but the student advocate will have to hold hours outside the clinic.

•student Health Advisory Committee will continue, but will have to maintain an office outside the clinic.

•Massive tuberculin screening and athletic physicals - will continue for MSC students.

•Blood pres.rure screening - Health education room - will continue, utiliz­ing space in Student Center but no longer at the clinic.

*Marketing programs - will con­tinue but will reduce in the number of students.

•Self care room __:_ will continue. According to Collard, the reduction

of space at the MSC Student Health Clinic comes at a time of rapid growth (35 percent increase of patients in the past year) and during implementation and expansion programs the clinic staff said it feels are vital to meeting the

health care needs of people on campus. The clinic staff said it is expecting an

increase in patients for 1983 and is con­cerned about its inability to increase staff to accomodate these new in­dividualS.

However, clinic staff members will direct past patients they are unable to service to other facilities appropriate to the patient's needs.

· The MSC Student Health Clinic will continue to provide the best health care to those continuing to use the clinic, <::;ollard said, and to maintain as many programs as budget and staffing allow, re-evaluating their serviceS following the spring semester - making any_. necessary changes.

If students have any questions as to how these changes may affect them, they are asked to stop by or call the clinic at 629-2525. 0

I 'Career .Awareness' stressed next week

\

Several major corporations will cjffer job information to Auraria students next week during Career Awareness Week.

IBM, All-State Insurance, Mountain .Bell and the Federal Aviation Ad­ministration are among the groups sen­ding a representative to the Auraria Stu­de1't Center lobby from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., February 21 to 27.

All students are invited to the event, sponsored by the Association of Black Students of UCD and by the Black Stu­dent Alliance of MSC.

"The purpose of Career Awareness

Weelc," according to Beverly Grant, vice president of ABS-UCD and coor­dinator of the event, "is to give students information about summer jobs, part­time jobs and jobs related to an academic major. Students also will have an opportunity to establiSh valuable job contacts." ·

Other organizations sending represen­tatives include the Denver District At­torney's office, the CU School of Nurs­ing, the Colorado chapter of the Society of Hispanic Professional Engineers and the Educational Opportunities Program at UCD.

"V·WS Dormitory housing

available tor students· I by Mann Hyung Hur

The Auraria Higher Education Center, which has 29,000 students, doesn't have dormitories, even if many students want them. Students are look­ing for housing here and there. Who knows if they will have good results or not?

The Office of Information and Refer­ral, which provides assistanee to pro­spective students seeking enrpllment at CCO-A, MSC, and UCO, under the Auraria Student Assistance Center, has began a project to enable students to live in a residence hall at a local residential campus on a pilot basis from the beginn­ing of this semester.

"This is a pilot program," said Gilbert J. Gutierrez, manager of the Informa­tion and Referr~ Office. "We are trying to determine the demand for housing. Many students are interested in this pro­gram to date, and their responses are af­firmative. We will evaluate the project continuously, and if the demands are sufficient, we will continue to do the job.

"We are connected with Loretto Heights College,'' said Gutierrez. "There are some Auraria students in the dormitory of the college. We are conti­nuing to contact Regis College, Col-

orado Women's College, and Rockmont College to secure dormitories for students."

Any student who is enrolled full-time at CCO-A, MSC, or UCO is eligible to apply for housing. In order to be assign­ed to a dormitory, the only procedure is to verify that he or she is a· full-time st1,1-dent.

According to Gutierrez, the room and board programs are flexible. Students have the option of contracting for room and board or for room only. If a student wants a room only, he will be responsi­ble for providing his own meals.

There are three kinds of board plans. Plan I includes three meals a day on

weekdays, and brunch and dinner on Saturdays and Sundays. It costs $900 per semester.

Plan II includes two meals on weekdays (breakfast and dinner), and brunch and dinner on Saturdays and Sundays. It costs $725 per semester. Meals covered in Plans I and II are pro­vided at Loretto Heights.

Plan III includes three meals on weekdays, provided by Professional Food Management, and no meals on Saturdays and Sundays. It costs $500 per semester.

Room only costs $650 pee semester. The board plan is optional. The

students can choose any one of the three types of board plans, and it is possible to not choose any board plan. It depends on the intention of each student. . The room is double occupancy. U a student wants a single room, an attempt will be made to provide one, on a space­available basis, for an additional charge.

Students desiring to contract for residence hall living will be required to submit proof of enrollment and com­plete an in~ke form and an application for ltousing. A security and damage deposit of approximately $100 will be required, payable to the host institution, and there is also an administrative fee of $25.

This program is now in the test stage,

Gutierrez emphasized. Nobody knows if this program will be operated con­tinuously and successfully or not, it depends on the ~fforts of authorities 'lo;,. the level of concerns of students. Gutierrez hopes the program will have good results. Then the students, who were assisted by the program, will not need to move again.

The Office of Information and Refer­ral wants to expand the program. It~ interested in providing apartment­referral information for students, and is trying to help students in as many ways as p~ible.

'Mere' license hearing March 3 Continued from page l

A petition agreeing to the reinstate-. ment of the Mercantile Company's beer

license is currently being circulated by the restaurant staff. You must be 21-years-old and either a resident of, or the owner of a business in the neighborhood surrounding The Mercan­tile.

On February 23, the Mercantile Com­pany people have been notified, they are required to appear for a pre-hearing conference with the Excise and License Department, as part of the pr~ for renewal of The Mercantile's beer license.

March 3 is the date of the hearing on The Mercantile's reapplication for a li­quor license. The Mercantile Company

must then show cause why a license should be reissued .

March 4 ~ the day the 'notice of default' expires. The Mercantile Com­pany must renew its license to be in compliance with the terms of the lease.

"We are working very hard to get the license back,'' Mary Ann Crowell em­phasized. "Unfortunately, the signature of anyone under 21 or who isn't a resident or the owner of a business in the area is not valid.

John Crowell is optimistic about Th# Mercantile's future.

"I feel badly," he said, "but I know The Mercantile will continue to be as dedicated to the Auraria students as always." 0

'Notes from the Underground'

Rights give way to .spring rites Modern thinkers, from Alvin Toffler to Marshall

McLuhan, have all been swift to point out that the general progress of society has far outstripped any possibility of catching up through evolution. As a peo­ple, we have developed a slick corporate image that is little more than hype. Inside of each electrical engineer lurks a druid who longs to howl in the moonlight; inside of every brain surgeon sits a leering cannibal.

Most often, this thought worries us. We all get the heebie-jeebies thinking about the powers entrusted to the Joint Chiefs of Staff, knowing that, unlike the

· computers they run, these are mere mortals swayed by the same biological mood swings and territorial in­stincts that are still visible in the neighbor's German Shepherd. Down, boys, down.

Psychologists of the Jungian tradition say we have. one' hefty Secret Life to share among us, maybe dating as far back as some biological soup in a distant epoch. Luckily, we have had a time to develop since we were soup, and the urge to commit cell-division falls on very few of us. But we have had almost no time at all to develop since the Middle-Ages, and certain attendant urges have been getting short shrift in the technological 2')th century.

Like our individual secret dreams, collective urges can get really twisted out of shape if they don't get an occasional airing in public. Unfortunately, there seeems to be hardly any place left to celebrate the solstice on the age of the jack8.l. As in The Importance of Being Ernest, Victorian country boys tore loose in the city, while Victorian city folk let their hair down

in the boonies. Unfortunately for us, America has become so standardized t:ltat one place seems identical to another, and our primitive natures look in vain for an appropriate outlet . .

There is one place in America, a steamy relic from a time before people got caught up in cerebral coneepts like 1ree will, human rights, and democracy. The place, of course, is New Orleans.

In the spring New Orleans socks in like an Irish bog in the morning, then dissolves into gay springtime in the afternoon. Nothing could be-better for a dismal mind full of dismal grey matter than to wander aimlessly through a land where the weather alone is enough to fling your emotions around. But that's only the beginning: Something funny happens to people after they get here.

The first thing you notice are the rich, who start behaving like rich people. did back when they thought Cod gave them their money. In a democracy, 'o/e've grown used to rich people who behave like everyone else, wearing blue jeans and catching a quick lunch at McDonalds. Ostentation went out of fashion here in the 1930s, and it wisely never came back. But at Mar­di Gras time, the blue blood just shines from the faces of the privileged, and everybody, including the throngs of poor who also show up, just loves it. It's a necessary part of the decadence that everyone comes to ~ey. .

The next thing you notice are the merchants. Shop owners sink into a greedy fever of fl~hy hucksterism, touting everything from palm readings to peepshows in an abrasive sing-song.

And then there are the transients - the "caterpillars " of the. commonwealth" - who pour in from everywhichway, getting by with scams and hustles that haven't changed since gypsies flocked to the public hangings in London. All of our carefully nur­tured dreams are private luxuries, but there is nothing on earth as self-indulgent as Mardi Gras. Welcome to the Middle Ages.

Which is when Mardi Gras dates from, more or less. Throughout all the changes of history, it has held true to a single purpose: This is the week in which you let all the stops out before Lent. It was t'olerated by The Church, which was dealing with a lot of freshly­minted Christians who hadn't quite gotten the hang of ~ aceticism yet. A majority of people in Europe had a sneaking hunch that being a pagan was probably more fun, but they were willing to give this other business a try, provided they could coltect a bellyfull of fond memories to tide them over until Easter.

In the same way, most of us are willing to give the 20th century a go so long as there remains some small ~ place in. the society for a little decadent reveling.

In time, perhaps we wil all come to gurgle FOR­TRAN at our mothers, a little Universal Product Code staptped on our butts. When that day comes, maybe folks will get their primitive urges out on visits to Ep­cott Center, but in the meantime, this sure seems like more fun. Canon Reed D

Student-elects shun first meeting Student

Government Report

Greetings to all. It gives me pleasure to address you at this time. It's been said that students of the 1980s are apathetic and apolitical, and this state of mind often extends into the realm of student government.

Indeed, some student governments have become in­effective and directionless, however, this is not the

• case at Metropolitan State College. On Friday, Feb. · 11, I held the first of many student government ex­ecutive cabinet meetings of this administration since being elected to office late November. ·

I was extremely pleased with the attendance of most of the members of student government; however, I was displeased with those (elected) members that either felt they had better things to do or did not in­clude the meeting as top priority on their agenda. Whatever the case, I hope this type of negligence does not become consistent. After all, they shouldn't be reminded that they were elected to represent you, the students of M.S.C.

It is my opinion that in order for any organization to be effective it must meet as a whole and discuss the problems and rationally consider the alternatives. After considering the alternatives, the best possible one should be implemented. The essential ingredient needed to have a more effective student government is farsightedness, imaginative advisors and represen­tatives that possess the desire to represent their consti­tuents.

Whether or not American campuses see a widespread resurgence of interest in student govern­ments depends largely on advisor's efforts. According to many college advisors, if student governments are left to their own whims an~ devices, they will quietly expire. However, with enthusiastic, knowledgable,

energetic advisement, along with student support at large, student government can become the training · ground for citizenship that Jefferson hoped it would be. Have a good week and weekend.

Letters '

.li_pergnt of MSC faculty have a del[ee from CU

'Check figures, CU,' Msc· prOf. says Editor,

On behalf of the faculty at Metropolitan State Col­lege, and as an alumnus of the University of Colorado (Ph.D-1970), I wish to take exception to the claims by some C. U. officials that the quality of the faculty at Metropolitan State College is poorer than that of our counterparts at the University of Colorado-Denver. This issue of quality was recently raised in conjunction with the plans by some C.U. officials to "take over" and merge Metropolitan State College with the University of Colorado-Denver under the Board of Regents.

It distresses me to see that some officials at the

ucD 'cnponslre to «pt needs of sfudents'

University of Golorado should think so poorly of the degrees which they, themselves, have granted and that they should be so ill informed about the faculty of Metropolitan State College. Twenty-four percent (24 % ) of the faculty at MSC received one, or more, degrees from the University of Colorado. Twelve per­cent received their doctorate from C. U. It is a pity that the University should think so little of the value of their own degree and of the faculty they helped to pro­duce.

In the recent memorandum which was prepared by the staff of the Chancello~ of the University of Colorado-Denver for the Regents meeting, we read of

what will happen after the proposed merger has taken place:

"In short run, poor faculty quality might be a pro­blem, but with the creation of CU standards and attri­tion poor faculty problems will be gone in about jive years. Many MSC faculty won't want to be a part of CU and CU standards."

This attitude shows a terrible ignorance of what the MSC faculty is. In fact, if this statement were true it would certainly reflect badly on CU's own degrees.

Staffer disputes ·cu characterization Editor,

In the 19 January article in The Metropolitan about the effects of late MSC grades for MSC students, "CU" is offered as an example of a university that is respon­sive only to the needs of the faculty, in contrast to MSC, which is characterized as more responsive to the needs of students.

N a faculty member, and as a member of the Records staff, I'm proud of UCD's commitment to ser­ving students, and I find this characterization of "CU'' unfair. For example, all UCD late grades received

between the 20th of December due date and 7th of January were individually entered on our computer system and appear on the Fall 1982 grade reports printed on January 10. UCO Records continues to work with faculty to decrease the number of late grades, yet still avoids penalizing students when facul­ty are late tuining in grades.

I offer this as only one example of UCD's respon­siveness to the needs of students.

Martha Barrett Acting Registrar, UCO

In this world we all know as the Auraria Higher Education Center, there's got to be some things that would motivate tJOU to write us about. Got a problem with something, did a funny thing happen to you on the way to .. . , are v J U curious about something -you've seen or heard, did you have an encounter of the fourth kind? .

Whatever it is, we want you to share it with us and our readers. W e know you 're out there. Let us know w hat you're thinking.

Ms. Barrett, What, I ask you, are deadlines for, if you're not going to enforce them? I'm sure you must enforce students' deadlines, eh? Also, are you, as you claim, being responsive to the needs of students, or the laziness of faculty? Grades are due on a particular date so that students, to whom you're supposedly so responsive, can know their grades as soon as possible. MSC grades were in the mail December 31.

~ tifltL -Msc Players work to perfect SJ

by Kathleen L. Hwnphreys

Editor's Note: MSC Players are preparing to present William Shakespeare's "A Comedy of Errors." Kathleen Humphreys spoke with some of the Players about the upcoming pro­duction, as well as other aspects of the theatre group.

MSC Players President Jack Oden holds definite lorig range plans for his organization, which was established in 1965.

"This club and the theater experience it offers· can act as a springboard bet­ween school and the outside," Oden said.

'The purpose of the MSC Players," he explained, "is to welcome anyone who has an interest in theater to explore their talent, whetRer it be in costume, set design or acting."

Oden would like to convince the ad­ministration that demonstrated student interest forms a valid basis for an MSC theater program.

students should have the opportunity to work with different types of styles."

Deborah O'Donnell is the assistant director and vocal coach. She explains the mechanics involved in performing a Classic.

"This is the first time they have ever done a Shakespearean play," O'Donnell said. "They weren't familiar with the language or with the rhythm of the verse."

O'Donnell explains that as a vocal coach she has endeavored to make students aware that diction, ennuncia­tion, knowing the language and com- ti

• Cl>

municating it are crucial. ~ ·~This language is so bizzare because it .:.c.

has changed so in the last 400 years," ~ O'Donnell said. "So, through the cast's .o understanding of the language and their ~ being able to speak it clearly, the au- ~ dience should be able to follow what is a.. , , going on." Syracuse all come from the outpouring

of his gladsome heart; he makes not the slightest attempt at arranging a joke, but utters what comes uppermost with irrepressible volubility (talkative)."

Oden was apprehensive at first doing Shakespeare, but he wanted to do some sort of classical piece, and considered it a challenge.

Rob Kelley confers with director Gary Mazzu. "This is the first Shakespeare that has been done at MSC," Oden explained. "From being in the rehearsals I've learn­ed a lot. I feel I now have the basic groundwork to feel comfortable in audi-·t tioning for a Shakespearean show."

One plan speaks for itself - a playwright competition for students. Club players will perform the winner's work; it will be directed, designed and. performed by students to provide ex­perience and club autonomy.

"With experience," Oden said, "we will eventually cotBtruct our own sets and costumes."

Oden plans to do four shows during the next academic year, rather than the usual fall aiad spring productions. Even­tually, he would like to develop a children's tour group to go to elemen­tary schools.

"A Comedy of Errors" director, and part-time faculty, Gary Mazzu, explains why this particular play was chosen.

MSC Players wanted to do a classic piece, preferably Shakespeare," Mazzu said, "and I felt like 'Comedy of Errors' was the most accessible of Shakespeare's plays because it's one of his easier plays to understand.

~·As a first production for people-who haven't done Shakespeare, lt helps them become· more .comfortable with ap­proaching Shakespeare," Mazzu said. "And in any college program the

Jack Oden and Jay Shaffer.

MSC student Rachel Jones admits that getting used to the language took two or three weeks. But Jones enjoys playing her character.

"I play Adrianna," she said. "She's the wife of Antipholus, the shrew of the play who enjoys wielding her power."

Oden plays Dromio of Syracuse. Ac­cording to Oden this character is a wim­py, whimsical person; basically Dromio is the master's fool.

The University Society's 1901 com­mentary describes Dromio as an un­tutored wit:

T. W. Baldwin wrote On the Com­.Positional Genetics of the Comedy of Er­rors, and he commented on this type of play.

"Because of the nature of its origins," Baldwin wrote, "Comedy of Erroi:s pro­bably gives us the fullest illustration we shall ever have of Shakespeare's methods of composition."

The play will run Feb. 17, 18, 19, 23, 24, 25, 26; curtain time is 8 p.m., and the show runs one hour and 15 minutes.

A proper farce is mainly distinguished from comedy by the license allowed, and even required, in the fable, in order to produce strange and laughable situa­tions. The story need not be probable, it is enough that it is possible.

Mazzu explains that the mistaken identity deals with two sets of twins who are mistaken for each other. The com­edy is very broad, there are no hidden meanings.

The Antipholus twins are played by Jay Shaffer and Royden Marsh. Jack Oden and Robert Kelly play the Dromios. D "It's a fast-paced comedy; we have

No company can give you this kind of leadership responsibility this fast. And nothing beats the sheer excitement of Navy flying.

The salary is exciting, too. Right away, you'll earn about $18,300 a year. That's better than the average corpora­tion will pay you just out of college.

·Eeature Left-handed minorities raise fists

I , .

by Trimble Russell

., While many students are content to wallow in the quicksands of inertia, others are moved to carry on the fight for truth, justice and the Aghts of the left-handed minority.

So it was with Nick Fox, a left-handed UCD junior, Fox, like others born into the left-handed minority, has had to struggle to fit into a world designed for the convenience of the right-handed.

At his UCO classes Fox encountered difficulties taking notes at student desks with only right-handed writing tables. When once he found a left-handed desk he carried it with him from classroom to classroom for a whole semester.

"I thought there just bad to-be a better way," Fox said.

And so began his ci;wade for left. handed desks in the East Classroom Building.

In his research Fox discovered that out of neady 1,700 desks in the East Classroom Building, only four had left­handed writing tables. Fox hllruelf counted every desk there.

"I wanted to do something for the forgotten 10 percent," Fox said, referr-

ing to the 10 percent of the population who are left-handed.

With the help of a small-group of left· handed fellow-travelers, Fox began cir- , eulating petitions demanding that AHEC supply a minimum 10 percent of desks with left-handed tables, ·

The petitions, with 250 Auraria stu­dent signatures, were presented to the 'AHEC Executive Board in early January. The Board responded by locating in its warehouse 59 extra-wide­tabled desks and 16 left-handed desks. These were transferred to the East Classroom Building Jan. 14.

Moreover, 100 left-hand table desks

"The 100 desks will cost us $4,000," said Sumi Sawtelle, assistant to the AHEC deputy executive.

"There are about 6,000 seats on cam­pus now. Supplying an additional 10 percent of left-handed desks would cost $24,000. Given our current budget

restraints, I doubt we will be able to satisfy the 10 percent demand im­mediately," Sawtelle said.

Fox expr~ some disappointment that needs of left-handed students can­not be met immediately. He concedes, however, that an agreement by AHEC to buy more left-band tabled desks in the foture represents a big step forward for the left-handed minority. D

New reading method ~ud-tioned I / I

by Michael Ocrant )

Students and faculty attending a little-publicized seminar demonstrating a new reading technique e.xpr~ en­thusiasm that the method may be taught at MSC in the future.

The system was developed in 1964 by Dr. William L. Elefant, of Bar-Ilan University, Ramat-Gan, Israel, where he teaches the technique in a course

which is required for education majors. Elefant, now on sabbatical leave, lias

taught the method in various locations throughout Denver - including The Denver Free University and George Washington High School - and has received recognition for bis reading system from Denver Mayor McNichols and others.

Students who attended the seminar · Tuesday late~ wrote favorable corn-

rnents about what they had learned. Several said they would like the oppor­tunity to learn the method better.

Faculty members who attended the presentation seemed equally en­thusiastic about the technique.

Richard A. Hildreth, chairman of Hospitality, Meeting and Travel Ad­ministration Department, said he thought the method could be a val4able tool for both students and teachers. The

technique, he said, could be especially helpful for those in the technical fields, or other profes.9ons where ifs necessary.., to read a vast amount of material in order to keep up with new developments. He also felt Elefant's method could be very beneficial to students who do poorly in studying and comprehending material.

Ray Langbehn, an instructor in hotel/restaurant management, said he didn't feel the technique was "revolu­tionary ,"but he was impressed with the precise way in which the system has been structured.

The reading approach is comprised of ,J

three phases: pre-search, search, and re­search. Pre-search involves simply observing the title and sub-titles of an article or other text.

The search phase requires the reader to scan the text for "word signalers" that introduce the central paragraph, or • phrases, that best explain the author's main idea as it relates to the title. Words such as I, we, me, our and my are identified as word signalers. Where these words are absent, the reader would look for a statement introducing the author's purpose, such as "this arti­cle will deal with" ... "the thesis of this article is" ... , and so forth.

Elefant noted that IDl\DY people read an article without trying to gain the understanding or insight the author is trying to give us, but instead to add facts . and information to the things they ' already know.

After completing the second phase, but before moving to the third, the reader should be able to proceed with seven operations, whereby he will be able to ex;press the writer's purpose and, the probable conclusion of the text thr.ough the use of models, brief outlines, tables, and formulas. · Among other things, these procedures

are meant to reinforce reader com­prehension and help the reader to gain confidence in his own thinking by· understanding a given text in several ways .

During the third and final step, the reader examines the text for total mastery. Elefant stressed that this final step only adds to the knowledge and understanding received through the first two steps. He compares his system to a spiraling circle, where the reader begins at the middle - the writer's purpose -and then moves away when he has understood the author's idea.

The system has been very successful for improving reading speed and com­prehension of Israeli students, Elefant claims.

"In Israel," he said, "textbooks are no1 as widely available as they are here. Therefore, it is necessary for students to rely upon articles published in technical and trade magazines. These articles are usually written in English, which re­quires those students have a model for understanding material written in a language different than their own.

MSC President Fontera is reportedly examining whether it would be feasible and worthwhile to have the reading pro­gram taught at MSC. 0

· Smzorts New-MSC coach means business

by Tammy Williams

"My main goal is just for the girls on • the team to have fun and to feel positive

about themselves," said Betty Kruger, the new MSC women's varsity basket­ball coach.

Kruger, who graduated from MSC in 1973, led the Roadrunners to a district title in 1972 by scoring a record break­

- ing 27 points in one game. Now, over a decade later, she has returned with a thing or two on her mind.

"It takes long, hard work, dedication and luck to win," she said, and it is evi­dent that she means business.

"There has been a lot of improve-_., ment, overall, in team play," she ex­

plained. "but the most drastic changes, as far as court play is concerned, have been in the defense."

In the recent MSC-Regis game, which

MSC lost, Kruger saw a ray of hope, with the defense making Regis "fight" for every point and the team as a whole adapting to her new strategy of "playing the whole court." She said the team is no longer sitting back and "hoping that the other team misses the basket."

Kruger, who is a physical education teacher at Pomona High School in Ar~ vada. also coaches two other teams. She is Pomona's head volleyball coach and its assistant track coach, positions she has held for five years.

"If I didn't feel as if I could help this team, I wouldn't be here," Kruger said.

The Roadrunners will finish this month with three major games: Feb. 18 agaimt Colorado College in Colorado· Springs, Feb. 22 against the University of Northern Colorado at 7 p.m. at home and Feb. 26 against the Air Force Academy at 5 p. m. in Colorado Springs.

The team is looking forward to seeing you I

· "Even though Pueblo, UNC and Mines have teams twice as large as ouf5, we can still ·compete on a level above them," explained John Liese with facts from Saturday's Colorado of Mines In­vitational track meet to back him up. MSC's competitors were Mines, the University of Southern Colorado, the University of Northern Colorado, Col­orado College and Northeastern Jr; Col­lege.

Char-lee Blueback. last year's All­American, broke the Miles Fieldhouse record in both the mile and the 1,000, but he was not the only MSC runner to leave his competitors in the dust. Liese, the team's spokesman, won the two­mile; Dave Garcia won the 600, Bruce

Jenkins finished second; Travis Mc.Kinley took second in the 400; and Sean Wynn placed second in the 880.

The women from MSC's track team also competed. They were led by Rosalind Martin - one of this year's na­tional contenders - Zelda Thomas and Theresa Del Monico.

Even though the women•s varsity ten­nis team will start its annual practice soon. it is still not too late to join. Con­tact Head Coach Jane Kober at 629-3145; she will be thrilled to hear from you.

Kevin Abbe, the new men's varsity gymnastics coach, would love to finish the season with a full squad. If you are interested in joining his team, give him a call at 629-3145. . 0

MSC swim· team· strong individuaHy by Tony Patino

The MSC swim team couldn't quite find the right strokes last Thursday as it lost to Colorado College 61-32.

"Overall, as a team effort this is one of the best we've seen all year," said coach Tom Waidmann. "Colorado College is one of the stronger teams in the league."

Two of MSC's swimmers won - Gus Lindemann claimed victory in the 200-yard individual Hedley wi~ a time of 2:12.43, and Jeff Smith won the one­meter diving scoring 257.00 points.

"Individually, I'm looking for Jeff to win the one-and three-meter champion­ships in the Intermoi.mtain Swim League," Waidmann said.

He also noted that Smith has an "ex­cellent chance" to win in the NCAA division II finals being held March 16-20.

W aidmann is also pleased with the performance of his 400-Free Relay team of team captain Marc Albrecht. Gus Lindmann. Joe Luchetta and Paul Bon­nacci.

"They are close to qualifying for the NAIA Nationals, which will be held March 3 to 6 in Arkansas."

MSC swimmer Jeff Smith after a recent competition

Coach W aidmann believes his team will give a respectable showing in the ISL finals.

"As a team we should finish. at the least fourth or fifth; at this time it's hard to tell," he said.

W aidmann and Assistant Coach Lou Green look for an improved team next year with several swimmers returning.

"I feel that I have very good depth next year, and with some good recruiting we should have a good team." Waidmann said.

' One of MSC's more promi.Sing pro­

spects fer next year is John Clute. "Clute is going to be one hell of a

swimmer," Green said. "He has only been swimming for four weeks now. When he started swimming the 100 free he had a time of 1:30; he is now down to 1:02."

The team will conclude its season Feb. 18-19 in the ISL Conference Meet at Colorado College. 0
