AHEC Printing Office Cut,s Off MSC Credit by Jacqueline s: Clary
AHEC has stopped printing services for MSC claiming MSC's printing budget for this year is expended - while MSC claims to have approximately $40,000 in credit left to use.
MSC President Richard Fontera has taken the problem t,p the state Attorney General's office to see if AHEC can legally deny these services to MSC.
.. Right now we've got no dialogue, so we have no negotiations," said Jim Vanderhye, MSC As,,oclate Vice President of Business and Finance. ·
MSC is now using the state Central Services printing facilities supplemented by a private local printing company. In 1980 the College Consortium
for Higher Education strongly suggested a transfer of MSC's printing facilities to AHEC. In addition, the Legislature suggested the same move in a footnote of the Long Appropriation Bill of that year. Since the Long Bill is the act by which MSC and other schools receive their yearly budget, MSC felt compelled to consider, and approve this transfer.
MSC transferred its printing, equipment and personnel in exchange for a yearly credit based on projected printing needs with yearly appropriation increases.
Vanderhye said MSC expected a natural increase in expenses the first two years, but it didn't mat~rialize. MSC ran under budget for those two years, leading it to believe it had credit coming.
In February of this year MSC knew it would reach the end of it< budget for printing services, bu. felt secure in the fact that AHEC would then apply the credit from the previous two years. AHEC didn't.
Deputy Executive Director of AHEC Jim Schoemer said that tht excess money was used up in AHEC's General Fund going mainly for salaries of the clasmied civil service employees.
Vanderhye said the money MSC gives AHEC through MSC's General Fund cannot be controll~ ed. He would ·prefer to purchase specific services for specific amounts so MSC would have more options and control in the service it purchases, such as printing.
AHEC said all they want from MSC is a commitment that MSC will pay for its printing from now on, just as any other customer does.
In an August SI, 1983 memorandum from Schoemer to Fontera, Schoemer warned Fontera that MSC had an unpaid bill of over $49,000 for printing services. Schoemer also pointed out that in a July meeting with MSC financial personnel MSC indicated an ability
to pay the 1982-83 bill from its 1982-83 budget but had failed to do so before July l, 1983, the end of the fiscal year.
That dropped MSC's 1983-84 credit from approximately $90,000 to $39,000.
An October 10 memo to Schoemer from MSC Vice President of Business and Finance Curtis Wright requested that MSC be allowed to continue the use of the printing services until Fontera and AHEC Executive Director Jerry W artgow could get together and
. resolve the dispute over print shop credits and charges.

NEWS 'Graders' Banned by English Dept.
by Michael Ocrant
A dispute among full-time faculty in MSC's English Department over the ethics of professors hiring people to grade student compositions has apparently been resolv-
"I didn't think anyone would oppose the policy be~ause such a position seemed indefensible to me."
is the difficulty of monitoring whether instructors are having
. compositions corrected in a responsible manner, and that there are too many possibilities for abuse.
ed. _ Following a "sometimes heated"
debate, the English Department voted on October 10 to adopt a policy prohibiting .teachers from delegating the correction of compositions to someone else, according to English Department Chairman Dr. John Spradley.
The policy will not become official until after a second vote is taken on November 14, Spradley said.
The question of whether usfng graders is proper or improper was apparently first raised last April.
At ..... that time, Professor Bob Nadon said he told Spradley that members of the faculty were using graders.
Nadon said he asked the Curriculum Committee to draft a resolution against the use of graders when Spradley told him no policy existed prohibiting their use.
As a result, Nadon said, a policy was written, following which English Professor Eugene Saxe
defended the practice and informed the faculty that he used graders.
Saxe said he hired a professional grader from the Jefferson County Schools, and a part-time MSC English professor, to assist in the correction of his student's compositions.
Each grader had a Masters Degree in English, Saxe said, and students were aware of the practice.
The action took Nadon by surprise:
"I didn't think anyone would oppose the policy," he said, "because such a position seemed indefensible to me."
Hiring someone else, probably at a substantially lower wage, to do one's job is dishonest, Nadon said.
But Saxe said he paid graders $10 per-hour and thoroughly went over the compositions before giving them back to students.
The graders corrected the papers, then summarized the

positive and negative aspects of the work, Saxe said, and recommended a grade by giving the paper an amount of points within a range determined by Saxe.
Saxe said he always wrote the final grade on student COl!ll>Ositions and that he was available to students with questions concerning compositions.
In addition, Saxe said, he used graders only for freshman composition classes, and Department Chairman Spradley knew of their use.
According to Nadon the problem is in verifying a teacher's use of competent graders; that he reviews papers thoroughly, and that his students are aware written work is being corrected by someone else.
Nadon said he would still be against using . graders on ethical grounds even if verification were possible.
Chairman Spradley concurred that a major problem with graders

Haddock also said that none of the information was "official" until it had been reviewed and approved hy the Legislative Audit Commit-
The liaison committee is made up of representatives from each of the three schools, AHEC, the three governing boards and the CCHE.
Haddock said the purpose of the meeting was "to provide information to the institutions involved, so they could repond."
"We went through our prelimfoai:y findings just to get comments, and to check our facts,'' he said.
But the use of graders is poten-. tially beneficial, Spradley said, because instructors become fatigued from grading compositions.
"With the basic process finished, professors would be more alert and therefore be able to make a better analysis of student compositions,'' Spradley said.
Saxe was not the only teacher to hire graders, according to Nadon, although he was the only _one to admit it.
Nadon said one student told him that he had corrected compositions for another professor.
"In my view the student was not qualified for the job,'.: Nadon said.
Both Nadon and Spradley siad they consider the matter closed, since the faculty have tentatively adopted a policy forbidding the use of graders.
Saxe said he would abide by the decision of the faculty but still considers such a policy to be infringing on individual teaching rights.
He said he will v~te against the policy in November. 0

NEJWS Schroe~er: Get· Involved, Students!
by Carson Reed
Sandwiched in between a derelict and an ersatz cowboy on a bench waiting for the 15 bus to roll by, there's plenty of time to contemplate this great world we live in, this great state; this great city.
Running late for an appointment with Representative Pat Schroeder, · the first thing that comes to mind is that it would be nice if the buses
ran a little faster. A cynical doubt creeps in: ·does .
Pat Schroeder ever see the world from this perspective, watching the traffic go by in the company of a dejected drunk and an unemployed hustler?
A little bit of false pride creeps in, too - I fight an urge to tell the hustler that I'm actually off to interview a bigshot politician. I have a real job and a real life and I'm off to chat with one of the country's

movers. and shakers, I fight the urge, knowing that the answer would be "So what?"
So what? The future looks grim, and today isn't so great, either. Some hard questions form in my mind. The world isn't changing fast enough or even for the better from this perspective, and from the perspective of most of the struggling students at this campus.
It's true that students are not, by-and-large, derelicts and hustlers. But all too often, politicians treat America's student population just that way. There's nothing like a tour of east Colfax to dredge up a little latent anger, and by the time I get to Schroeder's doorstep on High Street, I am fully prepared to lay the onus of responsibility on her shoulders.
"Just what are you guys doing up there in Washington?"
Schroeder deftly points out that politicians aren't listening to us for a very good reason: we aren't complaining.
"Students traditionally have the worst turnout for elections. If you want politicians to listen to you you've got to tell them you'v~ organized, tell them you've registered to vote; then tell them you'll see them in November."
Imported Moosehead. Stands head and antlers above the rest BRAKE FOR MOQSEHEAD. WHEN YOlJ DRINK-DON'T DRIVE .
"Margins in state elections are very slim," Schroeder said, " a couple of thousand votes can swing them either way. The leverage that
, you (students) could have is phenomenal."
And Schroeder poinh; out that the potential political power of students at Auraria is greater - by far. _
"At a traditional school, most of the students are registered out of state. They don't vote where they go to school. But you take Auraria. The majority of the students are also residents of Denver. Not only can they vote here, but so can their husbands and wives and friends and neighbors."
"If students don't understand that they have a phenomenal tool at their disposal, they are in trouble," Schroeder said. "What has happen~ in the House is that many of its members have lost the will to fight. They go to President Reagan and ask him what he will sign . . In that situation, you can expect continued cuts."
Schroeder, a Reagan opponent under siege, was asking for some help. The onus of responsibility had clearly, and rightly, been placed back on our own shoulders.
"Students have lost their organizing skills," she said, "during the Vietnam War we had it down to a fine art. Involvement does make a difference." Schroeder said students can be, and should be, a pivotal force both on behalf and· against politicians.
"Involvement, involvement, and involvement," she said. "Write letters. Let them know you're out there. You'd be surprised how quickly things would change."
S'chroeder knows what the reaction would be to such a drive. "They'd say 'My God·- you don't suppose they're going to vote?' "she said. . []

Computer Wizard Looks Ahead by Robin Heid
She is often mistaken in airports for a security guard or flight attendant, but when Navy Captain Grace Hopper addresses a crowd, as she did last week at St. Cajetan's as part of the MSC Lecture Series, there is no doubt among her listeners that she is anything but a living legend in the computer world.
A Phi Beta Kappa waduate of Vassar, Hopper, 76, became in 1943 the third programmer of the Harvard Ordnance Bureau's Mark I computer, a 51 x 8 x 8-foot behemoth with 72 words of storage and the ability to make three additions per second. As a Naval Reserve officer, she also worked on the first digital computers, then utilized as fire-control systems aboard American battleships. After World War II, she was refused a regular Navy, commission because, at age 40, she was "too old." So she joined the Eckert-Mauchly Computer Corporation in 1949 as senior mathematician and participated in the building of UNIVAC-1, the world's first commercially available computer. Later on, she became Director of Automatic Programming at Sperry Rand, developed the widely used computer language COBOL, wrote 50-plus papers on software and, at age 60, was recalled to active duty
· to help guide the Navy into the Computer Age. She is the oldest active duty officer in the American military. And it is this unique perspective as both a Witness to and participant in the development of computers since their earliest days tPat makes Grace Hopper an invaluable resource for anyone interested in computers and their emerging role in society.
In Hopper's view, "the Model Ts of the Computer Age are here We're at the beginning of what will be the largest industry in the United States." But she sees a problem coming, chiefly because today's computer developments are .. tending to follow the example of the
"A ship in port is safe, but that's not what ships are for. "
motor vehicle industry in emphasizing raw capability over demonstrated need.
"As we saw with (transportation needs}, the total flow of information will be neglected," she says. "We should look into information flow and design accordingly in- · stead of the haphazard development we have now."
With the quantity of information and demands for instant access increasing, · Hopper thinks another key to optimizing computer capabilities lies in more critically examining the types and value of the information they produce.
"We've spent 30 years on hardware and software; it's high time we start.ed thinking about data and informat~on. We have to clean up the data before we go any faster."
The best way to do that, she says, is through a three-step determination of information value.
"You need to look at it in terms of: 1) the time available to act; 2) the number of lives at stake; and 3) the number of dollars at stake."
A less conceptual but equally effective method is the placement of counters on data files to measure access frequency.
"At the end of six months," she explains, "print the ac~ count, and then drop those files nobody ever reads."

"Computer literacy is important - IJUt not to the exclusion of other things. It is secondary to reading, writing and speaking in plain English."
- Grace Hopper --~------------
Grace Hopper believes another important facet of computer efficiency is more creative problem solving by the humans who program them.
"The statement 'But we've always done it that way' is forbidden in my office," she declares. "You rrwst look at all possible actions in light of the future." To achieve that, she advises a twostage review of any plan.
"First, determine the cost of not doing it; this is often omitted from planping. Second, determine the consequences of bypassing the problem. The Marines did this in World War II - there was a lot. of Pacific islands they just went around."
Hopper also has a suggestion for anyone coming up with bold, innovative solutions in work environments where creativity if often feared and stifled.
"Just da it. It's easier to apo_logize than it is to get permission."
Interestingly, Captain Hopper considers neither problem-oriented computer design nor better infor-mation management the most vital factor in American society's transition into the Computer Age. Management, in fact, comes under some fire from her when the subject is human beings.
"You cannot manage a man into combat ," she says bluntly. "You must lead him. "
And then she elaborates. "Our young people today are the
best and brightest we've had in the history of our country. Yet we have a bad habit of underestimating them. All they really need, though, is positive leadership - not management. We have forgotten that it's as important to praise as it is to criticize, that we must take care of our crews. We owe them good leadership. It's the most important job we have ahead of us."

Reader Compliments New Style forThe Met Dear Editor,
I would like to congratulate you and all of the staff members at The Metropolitan newspaper for a job well done. The newly refurbished newspaper that ha5 been transpiring over the last few months is not only a professional, eye appealing piece of work, but its columns, feature stories, and coverage of campus events deem your paper to be a Yery broad-based, interesting and informative item for all members of our diverse campus communitv.

Validity or Not Validity Or is That. the Question?
Editor: In response to the editorial written by Tom T. Urano, Jr., (October 19,
1983): Validity. What is validity? Validity, is a group of concerned people will
ing to put their valuable time and effort towards the betterment of all. In this case, the betterment of all pertains to the students. If the students don't have a valued working document to govern themselves, then they have nothing. Because with confusion comes deterioration, and for all those willing to look into the past, they will find exactly what I'm talking about. In this case, a group of approximately 15 were and are willing to sit down for six months and write a document that they feel very strongly will help the studen~ to protect themselves against whatever may confront them in years to come.
I wrote this letter for a specific reason. This being, that it is vital that you, the students, look over and vote not only on the constitution, but on all issues that may face us in the future.
It is evident that some people look down on students, and they just may have the right to do so at this point in time. However, if the students, not only on this campus but on all campuses, would just stand up and let their voices be heard, so much could be accomplished.
Remember, the students of today, as were yesterday, are the leaders of tomorrow.
J. DeLeo, MSC student
So even though M.R. Smith disagrees, I think Student Affairs Committee Chairman Shepherd should go full speed ahead with the rock concert and beer idea.

Student Questions ·Landscaping Editor:
In r~ponse to ASMSC "Good, Bad & Ugly" report: You want to talk ugly? I ust thmk of one of those electronic marquis (or any kind of marquis) erected m.front of Emman~el Gallery'. I cannot fathom why anyone in })er/his right mmd could entertam such an insult to a beautiful old structure and one of the few havens of creativity on campus. (Take that, Loring Crepeau). What bland-minded individuals could come up with such tripe? There are plenty of ordinary well-traveled spaces to erect such cultural° monuments which brings me to a couple of other complaints. '
On returning to school this fall, I noticed that the loading.zone area at the southwest corner of the Art Building had been landscaped - or what passes as lan?scaping - bark chips, sprinkler heads and a few scraggly trees, some of which are already dead. This has cut down on both convenience for the students· and parking revenues for the school. Besides, it's no more eyepleasing than the yellow lines that existed before.
Secondly, what in heaven's name are those three brick columns doing dead center on the sidewalk up to the Student Center? Is this someone's idea
of aesthetics, or an over.-the-summer project on what to do with surplm bricks? It can't possibly have anything to do with traffic patterning as I've never heard of anyone getting injured bumping into another pedestrian in this area. If they are to prevent miscreants from driving their vehicles up there, they are useless because anyone with that in mind could certainly roll right up over the grass. What is their function?
Let's give our student government something to do, like a little in-vestigating.
I would like to know, concerning both brick columns and landscaping: 1) Who had the original idea? 2) What procedures the proposals had to go through and who approved
them? 3) Cost and where the money came from. 4) The logic(?) behind them. Why are they there, and are they not a waste of funding? I would rather
see a new skeleton for biology students or better equipment for video students. Who is responsible?

Job Rejerra"/s for Frontier Airlines. Protested To the Editor:
The Student Employment Service at the Auraria Student Assistance Center is handling job referrals for Frontier-Horizon Airlines. The unions that have contracts with Frontier Airlines charge that Frontier-Horizon was established by Frontier Holdings as a means to break those contracts and the unions at Frontier. This matter is now before the National M~diation Board. The trend in the airline industry today is to break the unions in that industry and slash the wages and working conditions of the people who work there. $300,000-plus-a-year executives are not taking 50 percent wage cuts such as those Continental h~ forced on many of its employees.
The Career Planning and Placement Services at Auraria contends that it is not breaking any law and is being neutral by handling this referral. We say
·that we are outraged that a student service is being used to destroy the already existing jobs of working people, and pitting unemployed students in this matter. That office is not breaking any law, true. But, as a matter of social policy, this.is an outrage and not neutral.
We demand that this p0sting be r~moved and, to really be neutral, the Student Employment Service stay out of such disputes.

(k>,e11nuent Report Fellow students,
To misquote the immortal words o! Mayor Federico Pena, "imagine a great campus." There are about 35,000 people on the Auaria campus, yet, with this large a number of people in the heart of Denver, we don't do 'didly squat'.
One would think that if we were to· combine all our resources, we could accomplish anything we damn well pleasel The major problem we face in combining our resources is the lack of both cooperation and communication. This is not only a problem within our instituti(;m, but within the campus as a ·whole. It stems from the early '70s\when the merger of institutions was first proposed, which, in turn, seems to have made the individual institutions leery of any cooperative efforts. We see no immediate solution to this problem, but we feel very strongly that something must be done and soon, if we are to ever to gain the recognition we so deserve.
A special thanks to Dr. Roberta Smilnak and the people of Student Affairs for all the advice and concern, and the cooperation you have provided and I am sure will continue to provide. Glad to have you on our team, and working for the good of our students.
Teachers, you have our sympathy for the loss of the print shop. We know
In support of working people, we are asking everyone to join us in this protest.

that this is a vital instrument in the performance of your duties and feel what has happened is unfair. W~ will be glad to help in any way possible.
However, we realize there are two sides to every coin. According to the people of AHEC, the reason for this loss is because the teachers used their budget monies for copying already. ·
Understandable, but closing the shop down doesn't solve the problem. It is our opinion that this matter should be solved immediately, whether it be through. round table discussion or court. Who's to say? Hopefully the problem will be solved soon, because the loss of the teachers is the loss of the students. And aren't the students the reason we're here in the first place?
Students, we also sympathize with you having to pay a miniumum of six cents a copy. We intend to see if something can be done about it.
How would you like just once to know what is going on, on campus? One solution we have talked about is the building of a marquis (large sign board). This marquis would advertise and announce events on campus. You would not have to face the headache of trying to read the bulletin boards. Also if the marquis was built on Speer Boulevard between the Science Building a'nd the UCD East Classroom we could attract thousands of people that pass by each day, on their way to work. This is a great way to let people know we're here and doing things. ·
Remember student government is here for you.

Teacher Certification Program Slated
A neW academically rigorous Teacher Certification Program has been approve<\ and will begin spring semester on the University of Colorado at Denver campus, Chancellor Gene M. Nordby has announced.
The new program specifically responds to the criticisms of the National Commission on Excellence in Education which pointed a finger
· at teachers who were trained in teaching methods but not adequately grounded in substantive matter.
Acting Dean of the UCD School of Education Barbara Mowder and TCP Program Director Karen Harvey said' the primary features of the new program will be:
- Students seeking teacher certification will possess a bachelor's degree in a su_bject area, thus demonstrating strength in a content area. - Teacher training in education
will be taken at the graduate level. - There will be no B.A. in Educa
tion. - 'Experienced professionals
working in other fields who have bachelor's degrees and wish to become certified will be able to return to college in the Teacher Certification Program and prepare themselves to pass on their knowledge and experie~ce in a clasnoom setting. 0

One chilling scene shows veteran actress Colleen Dewhurst cracking up. Perhaps, she realized too late this movie is a mistake for her career. Even Martin Sheen, who has portrayed many political characters with great aplomb, is miscast as a would-be senator bent on ruiri.
Walken's doctor, played by Herbert Lorn, has brought nothing new to this role except for his forced Polish accent.
Tom Skerritt, .as the . sheriff, should have been given something

to do other than gawk at Walken's power and talk like a big-time policeman. If you do. go see this movie, however, watch his reaction to a fresh corpse; it could tum out to be the best acting job of the movie.
Walken moves around in a daze like he's been drugged, registering no emotional change·at all. Brooke Adams, who' plays Walken's old flame, seems incapable of any emotion other than crying and uncertainty about what she's doing.

demonstrated jazz concepts being presented in the workshops.
The UCD Musician's Association brings· professional musicians from all types of music to ca.mpus every tour to six. weeks to play and share information with local aspiring musicians about the prof~ional music world. The John McNeil Quarter- appears to be wellqualified to give insights on the professional jazz world, as each member has recorded on various labels with McNeil and other
' groups. John .McNeil has put together this group to tour and give clinics.
The John McNeil Quartet consis.ts of Mc~eil on trumpet, Bruce Foreman on guitl!r, Mike Rich .. mond on bass, and Ron Vincent on dnims. Each member gave a workshop .dealing with their respective instrunients.
Bruce Foreman described jazz as communication with all the things that go into making people what they are. He emphasized that jazz is essentially improvisational in that the band, while using n standard and original repertoire, never plays a song the same way twice. He said improvisation is the creativity and interplay between the performers as · they communicate with each other and the audience while they play.
This communication between the players becomes evident during the concert. McNeil points the way and the others joirf in. The music flows," with no sudden changes, as the listener becomes aware gradually that Foreman's guitar or Richmond's bass has taken precedence over McNeil's trumpet. The drums act like a constant thread - always there and varying in intensity - as though they embody the subject of the communication. They flow and are not necessarily mellow; this band gets ·hot and lively, but maintains the sense of communication.
The quality of professional musi·cian represented by the John -McNeil Quartet would seem to -make these workshops and concerts a valuable source of information for musicians in the Denver area. The workshops are open to students and the public. There is usually a $2 charge to non-students. 0 -....

SPORIS Ya Know?~ - Dave Migoya
Ya know, man has been trying to get high since the beginning of time. Each has their own method of doing so; it's all a matter of taste. Robin Heid, for instance, likes to jump off of things. Jack Affleck, The Metropolitan's production manager, lets the shutter and flash raise his spirits. Some of you like the conventional Friday night scene. All are good, mind ·you, but my method is a bit extreme. I enjoy getting high and staying there until I choose to come down. What is this wondrous secret I have discovered? Big game hunting is my secret, except there's one catch: no horses allowed.
I'm sure there are may of you who are avid hunters of the mighty elk, but in order to sight one of those fantastic creations of ·the Lord you have to travel far into the valleys of the biggest beast of all - the Rockies. The only problem the elk have with survival is those darn hunters on horseback. I, on the other hand, have evened the odds a bit. I choose the highest peak within range and set forth on my mission to be on it by noon. No horses, just my little footsies, a backpack and my trusty 30-30 Winchester with a 2.5x8 Leopold scope.
Ah, I knew there would be some of you who would resent such a statement. Kill a poor defenseless animal. Unfortunately, I enjoy the sport too much. But then again, that's the key. It is a sport. Something to sweat over_, feel tired yet alive. Most hunters treat an elk hunt like it was a stroll through the meat market. Hop on a horse and let the guide take you to your prey. It doesn't matter if the bull is 500 yards away. Heck, if you shoot a 30-06 Springfield or a 7mm Remington Magnum, a shot like that is cake.
My technique is a bit different. Most big game hunters laugh when I tell them- I shoot a 30-30 for elk. A kill shot would have to be within 200 yards. Well now, that's part of my secret to getting high. Get close enough to .get a shot off. Easy? f'iot with an elk it's not.
The other part of my secret I have metioned. Find the tallest peak and walk there. Once at the top of the mountain I sit. Sit and wait to see an elk passing by. Usually I don't see one, but that's ok, sitting on top of a mountain is as much a high for me as polishing off a six is for you Bud men.
Solitude is the key. Being alone with yourself. Absorbing the panoramic view for miles around and realizing how big it all is and how small you really are. It's an indescribable feeling.

October 26, 1983
This past Saturday, while I sat on such a peak looking at the valleys below for any sign of elk, I was struck by a humorous thought. I felt like the guru in the comic strip B.C. sitting atop a mountain just waiting for some poor misguided sap to climb to the top and ask me for some revealing wisdom and the secret of life. Who knows? I might have given it to him.
Soon after this, I thought about all those poor backpackers that Robin Heid talked of in last week's Wild Life Guidebook. I didn't have to worry. None of them would be crazy enough to come up as high as I had. Except maybe Robin. If I'd have seen him up there on Wolf Mountain, I probably would have given him some sort of viewpoint as to the meaning of life, as all good mountain dwellers should. If that was not what he was looking for .. . well .. . Robin would make a much better conversation piece over my fireplace than the largest bull elk would, ya know? D
Six Netters Quit in Coaching Flap~ by Lori Martin
The MSC Women's Volleyball team has won three out of their last five matches, despite the resignation of half the team, including Senior Captain and All-American Connie Dirks. The resignations are reportedly due to an internal dispute which led to the firing of assistant coach Lynne Morris. Both Morris and coach Pat Johnson declined to discuss the details.
The Roadrunners lost four matches in a tournmant October 14 and 15 at Colorado College. Johnson attributed this to a midseason slump that the team needed to work out.
They did just that. With only half the team, the women came back and defeated DU, Western State and Fort Lewis .
The squad's record stands at 34-17 and Johnson is confident the team will successfully defend its district championship in the playoffs on November 5.
The Netters, then with a full roster, lost to the University of Wyoming on Tuesday. It was the team's last game with a 14 player squad. The skeletal team lost to Mesa on Friday.
"It's like starting a whole different game plan," Johnson said, "but I think the girls' attitudes are good. Those that want to play are here, and those that don't aren't."
Johnson feels the change hasn't affected the team as adversely as it might seem. '
"Although it is certainly an obstacle, I find it a challenge that I think we can get around," she said.

No. 2 Ranked Benedictine Falls to Strong Kickers Friday, Oct. 28
MSC Women's Volleyball vs.
LASf WEEK'S ~ULTS
MSC Men's Varsity Soccer: MSC 2, Augsburg College 0 CC I, MSC 0
by David Migoya
True Grit. That's what the MSC Men's Varsity Soccer team has. Last weekend the squad was scheduled to face three outstanding opponents in Oklahoma, but the weather was not so understanding. Hurricane rains prevented the team from playing Bethany on Friday beca~e of a flooded field. Coach Harry Temmer and the Kickers didn't think a little rain should stop a soccer game from being played.
"The boys were hungry," Temmer said. "They wanted to play real bad."
What the squad did was play the .I- No. 2 ranked school in the nation,
.Benedictine from Atchison Kansas. In a match that looked more like
a water polo game than soccer, MSC came out the yictors, 4-1. Not bad for a non-ranked teaml
On Saturday, MSC traveled to Olclahoma to play Bartlesville.
Much like the day before, the Ki~kers had fire in their blood and victory in their eyes. After one minute had elapsed into the first · half, Al Reinig made a perfect p~ to Paul Mood who made a spectacular shot that was punched away by the Bartlesville goalie. Dan Lombard took the rebound and pounded the ball past the downed goalie. The remainder of the match saw MSC dominate the
""' offensive and win 2-1.

Liese Posts Course Record
by David Migoya
The MSC Cross Country team has fared well the (ast few weeks behind the leadership of John
.. Liese. Although Liese had not been running up to his normal standards, the CU Invitational on October 8 and the Northeastern JC Invitational last Saturday were his times to redefine. his leadership.
Soon after the harriers had ob-r tained some votes in the NAIA na
tional rankings, Liese turned in a strong 31:58.8 in the CU tournament.
On Saturday, Liese came in first with an astounding 25:05 time that set a new course record. MSC run-
., ners George Frushour and Charlie Blueback notched second and third place respectively with times of 25:33 and 25:39.
Coach Brian Janssen and the Harriers will compete.in the AFA
,... JV Invitational on Sa._turday, while some of the runners will compete in the NCAA Division II regionals or the Adams State meet the same day.
Needless to say, the Harriers are looking for strong finishes to gear
< up for the upcoming NAIA district meet on November 5. 0
Oklahoma State University tnstead.
NEOSU scored fast when they managed a break-away through the "no-goals patrol'' defense and hit the inside of the right post. · Tim Vetter tied the game at 1-i
with a beautiful shot from the right side.
"We've been pounding the goalie all game," Temmer said. "It was only a matter of time before we . netted one."
With time running out and the likelihood of an overtime period evident, MSC pushed hard for the decisive goal. Greg Sumlin took the call. After beating out two NEOSU defenders along the right sideline, Sumlin hooked his shot by the opposing goalie for the winning goal .

The art final was a 6-foot P.ainting. Your friends helpeil
you pass with flying colors.
A deftly hurled splotch of magenta blended surrealistically: with a cascade of vermilion, occasional suggestions of orange and cobalt blue and what do you have? What else: "The Birth of the Universe'.' .
It's the painting that completed your art final, and frankly, you couldn't
have done it by yourself. Afterwards, it's time for a little
down-to-earth gratitude. You owe them at least a few Liiwenbraus, not to mention the
laundry bill.
