Consumer advocate at Aurarla

Plan for the future, Nader warns by Richard Bellizzi

If Ralph Nader had his way, •veryone in the United States would be required to vote, solar power, not nuclear, would be the nation's priority, all citizens would be entitled to free medical

__£-care, and consumer activism would be the rule rather than the exception.

And where would Nader, famous protector of consumer rights, fit into such a scenario?

• He would certainly continue to seek out injustice and crusade for its abolishment. He would cer-

1 tainly not, he claims, accept a 1 position in government. « "I wouldn't last three· weeks," he said.

Nader, in addressing a suppor­tive audience Friday at the Auraria Student Center, took dead aim on what he considers the major ills of American society - corporate power, pollution, the arms race, unemployment, the Electoral College and syn­thetic fuels, to name but a few. £.' The thrust of Nader's delivery, however, focused on student and

consumer activism. Nader prescribed activism as a

way for college students to fulfill their potential, warning them not to go through life doing just one thing.

"If you wa~t to see what the ·future is like; Nader said, "you'll have to plan now."

Nader reminded his audience that his concepts - the right of people to change what they don't like - are not new ones, but ones Thomas Jefferson employed while ti leading this country out of the ~ , clutches of colonialism. ~ ·*'

Nader said an abundance of multi­national corporations create "an im­blance of power, enabling corporations to use government as an all-purpose cure to ensure a conspiracy of mismanage-ment." ' .

Loan guarantees a~d low-interest loans to corporations offer few incen- · tives for efficiency and risk-taking, Nader said, which transfers risks on to the consumer.

He called the Manville Corporation's recent petition for bankruptcy "break­ing new grounds of corporate irrespon­sibility."

Nader urged citizens to form statewide consumer groups similar ; to ones in Wisconsin, which caused the state's utilities to be required to mail consumer advocacy information with its bills, thereby telling its customers who they could contact to effect change.

Nader predicted that unless citi7.ens mobilized and got their opinions heard, unemployment \\'.,ould oontinue to rise, along with nuclear proliferation.

"We're losing control of our govern­ment," he said. "Corporate power is taking over political power.

"Who can say this is what the American people want?" 0

ticular importance to the Auraria cam­pus.

Issues to be addressed include improv­ing feasibility for non-profit organiza­tions from the Auraria campus to use the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, closing off Lawrence and Larimer Streets to automobile traffic, city sup­port for educational institutions within the city limits, improving educational opportunities for minorities and 'women", maintaining mountain views and computer literacy in the communi-ty.

Questions will also be submitted by the audience and will be drawn out of a box so that there is a good mixture, Ortega said.

They'll have a chance to meet the can­didates," Ortega said. "We need to push attendance because these are questions that are unique to this type of campus."

After the forum there will be a private reception from 4 to 4:30 p.m.

Part of the uniqueness of the forum, Ortega said, is that the students at Auraria will get a chance to hear all of the candidates and their platforms, as well as where they stand on issues of particular importance to the campus.

.. The other unique thing is that the Student Activities offices of all three col-

High. ,rate ·Of default e~pected (CPS)--The U.S. Department of

Education should be "realistic" by brac­ing itself for an increasing number of students defaulting on their federal stu­dent loan payments this year, according .to a top official with the American Council on Education.

With this summer's job market likely to be the worst since World War II -campus job placement experts are predicting that even engineers and com--~uter science grads will have a tough time finding work - many grads simply may not have the jobs, and thus the in­

. come, to· begin repaying their student loans, ACE spokesman Bob Aaron said.

The default rate on Guaranteed Stu­dent Loans has risen steadily since 1978, ·

-irom 10.3 percent to 12.3 percent, ac-

cording to the Department of Educa­tion.

National Direct Student Loans defaults, on the other hand, have been edging downward for the last five years, from a high · of 17. 7 percent in 1978 to 15.4 percent last year.·

More aggressive collection efforts by the federal government have helped ease the default rate, experts say.

But as the job market for college grads deteriorates this y~r, default rates could shoot up again, Aaron advised.

"Is it realistic to expect a student with $10,000 worth of debt not to default in today's job market?" he asked.

"After all, with the kinds of jobs and sal~ies available, many students will be lucky just to keep their heads above water."

Candldate's forum at Aurarla Continued from prnious page

"It's students that make the dif­ference," she said.

\.- All of the candidates were sent a letter of invitation which included a list of .... topics to be discussed.

Between 2 and 2:30 p.m._, each can­didate will be allowed five minutes to present wues of their choosing. Then, irom 2:30 to 3:45 p.m., questions from ~e student activity representatives, as

well as the ones chosen by the audience, will be asked. Each candidate will have a minute and a half to respond to the questions. The last 15 minutes, between 3:45 and 4, the candidates will be allow­ed an additional two minutes to sum­marize and clarify their positions.

The forum will be held during the an­nual Springfest activities, but is the only on-campus event scheduled for that time period. 0

The MSC Board of Publicatio~ is now accepting applications for the position of ,,

Editor of

The Metropolitan. Interested persons should contact the Board through

,._ the MSC Office of Student Affairs, Central Classroom 316, Campus Box 23, 629-3077.

The position will be filled by the summer 1983 semester. Submit cover letter, resume and samples

of w9rk to the MSC Board of Publications, CN 316. Deadline for the applications is May 12 at 5 p.m·.

Even searching for a jQb could take months, he pointed out, "and when you're starting a career there are certain start-up costs - moving expenses, clothing, and other expenses - that have to come before repaying a loan." . But the number of grads filing for pro­tection under bankruptcy laws could in­crease if the economy doesn't improve, said ACE policy analyst Elaine El­Khawas.

Right now the number of grads who escape repaying their loans by declaring bankruptcy is around one percent, El­Khawas said.

"Most of those are genuine hardship cases," she noted. - Some are more desperate than others. In December, a federal court turned down a former Wright State University student who wanted to repay the school just one percent of ~ amount she still owed on her loan. After 36 months, she would have paid back a total of $14.82.

The court decided the former student, who is now a teacher who co-owns some real estate in Ohio, hadn't shown "good faith" when she proposed repaying so little.

In what is perhaps a more typical case, however, a California federal court recently relieved a former San Diego State student of her loan obliga­tion because the woman's nervous disabilities and hearing losses havel

prevented her from holding a job for long. .

Students can't apply for bankruptcy protection until five or more years after the loans originally become due, Department of Education spokesman Duncan J:Ielmrich pointed out.

"We're not really making any projec­tions on whether the job market will raise the number of defaults," Helmrlch said.

Even with the ~predicted tight job market, "they'll still have nine months to find jobs before loan repayments have to start." .

Moreover, "most defaulters have jobs and )ust have a 'the-govemment-gets­paid-last attitude," claims Virginia ·Powell, a U.S. attorney in Philadelphia who has gone after a number of loan deadbeats there.

U.S. attorneys in Philadelphia, Cin­cinnati ~nd Los Angeles have gone as far as towing away cars of student loan defaulters.

And the Education Department last fall installed a new corpputer to help track down the estimated one million former students who still owe back loan-payments.

Such efforts won't unfairly punish "real hardship cases," Powell s~d, "as long as they keep in touch with the rele­vant agency and work out-some kind of deferment plan."

If yoq have adeast two years of college left, you can spend six weeks at our Anny ROTC Basic Camp this summer and earn approximately $600.

And if you q_u_alify, you can enter the ROTC 2-Year Program this fall and receive up to $1,000 a year.

But the big payoff happens on graduation day. That's when you receive an officer's commission.

So get your body in shape (not to mention your bank account).

It's time tor CoPIRG at MSC '

Students at MSC are being asked to show their sup­port for establishing a chapter of the Colorado Public Interest Group here at the Auraria campus.

With chapters now at CSU, UNC, and CU, CoPIRG is the largest public interest organization in Colorado.

.For those students familiar with CoPIRG and the work it does on behalf of alf Coloradans, not just students, the choice is clear - CoPIRG on campus is a good idea.

For those students not familiar with CoPIRG, the decision may not be so clear. Some people see the $3 fee per semester as reason to question whether CoPIRG is worth it.

In fact, proponents of House Bill 1510 have used precisely that tack - the so-caJ.led "mandatory" fee - . as fuel for their opposition to sfiident fee funded organizations.

The fact of the matter is that the fee is not man­datory. True, it is collected from each student at, the beginning of the semester, but students can request a

refund of the money, if they so desire. Consider, for a moment, the benefits of CoPIRG. In addition to its full and part time staff, CoPIRG

has hundreds of volunteers who monitor the legislature, making sure student and citizen rights are being considered.

The various CoPIRG publications - Colorado Outlook, On Your Own - Small Claims Court, Bicy­cle Buyer's Guide, Energy Conservation for Renters, Colorado Car Insurance, and others - reflect the work done by CoPIRG on behalf of students and con­sumers.

These publications deal with issues and topics which most Coloradans deal with on a r~gular basis. They include information that is extremely valuable, ' and which is available a very few places for such a small in­vestment.

CoPIRG has received acclaim from civil servants .throughout the state, including from Gov. Lamm. But it's not about to rest on its laurels. It is determined

to keep on serving students and citizens on all issues which affect us.

CoPIRG needs 850 student signatures by April 22 in order to get on a student referendum.

Many students who support CoPIRG have not yet ~ signed the petition. Auraria students in the past have demonstrated their ambivalence toward most issues which affect them but require their input.

CoPIRG may be the most important service propos­ed for students in some time.

Now is the time for students to speak out in support of CoPIRG. The petition and referendum process ex- - • ists for just such situations: to amend and add to the. student government constitution. ·

Let's not pass up the opportunity to do ourselves a great service.

Get yourself and all your friends to the CoPIRG table in the Student Center and sign the petition that will make your world a better place. 0

Students urged to help defeat H.B. 1510 Student

Government Report

Greetings ~o alli The time has come again to inform you of the hap­

penings of your student governmen~. However, this time, I am appealing to you on a more serious note.

If you can remember, two weeks ago in my last ad­dress, I was to lnform you of the status of H.B. 1510 (The bill that would strip the right of students deciding on how their student fees should be spent.)

Court decision halts draft enlistment law Editor,

The federal government has now acknowledged that they cannot legally use college financial aid offices as enforcers of the draft registration law. A federal court issued a temporary injunction in March against a law requiring male students to prove they have registered in order to be eligible for federal grants and loans.

Many financial aid offices at schools in Colorado have asked students to provide proof that they have registered for the draft in an .effort to be sure that they will have met possible rMuirements. This has put great pressure on students who have refused to register on grounds of conscience but who need financial aid to continue their education.

Students should know that this requirement has been found unconstitutional and that the Justice Depart­ment has advised education officials that they may be in contempt of court if they require the information. College officials should be asked to inform students of the ruling .and to stop asking aid applicants to state whether they have registered.

Eric Wright American Friends Service Committee

Correction The phone number for the Communi­

ty Service Development Program published last week was incorrect.

The correct number is 629-3267. There are about 50 scholarships available through the program, so check it out.

In light of pressing circumstances around the bill, I ·was unable to address you last week. However, I will do so now.

The state legislature has been pressing to pass H.B. 1510 in spite of opposition from your student govern· ment and various student governments across the state. At this tirne I am appealing to you, my consti­tuents, for your assistance in lobbying against H.B. 1510. The bill was scheduled for State Affairs commit­tee hearings this past Monday, but was postponed un­til later-this week or early next week.

I need you all to take five minutes of your time to phone, write or visit your Senator expressing your op­position to H.B. 1510. We must remind our

ltlrri~=~~ . College Press Service

legislators that we elected them to represent our in­ten~ts and concerns. And the right of students to decide .on the allocation of student fees is a concern of ours.

If this bill should pass, the legislators will be saying, in essence, that we as students, do not have the right to ' participate in the forum of democracy. To end on a brighter note: The Ralph Nader lecture was a total success thanks to you. Until next week, Ciao.

, Respectfully Yours, . Michael Johnson, President of

Notes from the Underground

~All you wanted in a book: and less Did you ever feel like a hamster on a treadwheel? - '

The faster you run, the quicker you get nowhere. That's how I've felt lately, and the evidence crops

up everywhere I look. A fer instance: When was the last time you read a

good book? You are a college student, right? Over the years, you've spent nearly a zillion dollars on 100-pound textbooks. Sometimes, you feel like you're going to drown in the printed word.

Still, I bet you can hardly remember the last book ~you read from cover to cover. People who go to school

don't have time to read books. I can hardly remember the last time I devoured a

book, I mean just for the hell of it, for my own amuse­ment and elucidation.

It's one of those secret dreams that I have set aside _ for my post-college existence - to crawl inside a book

and just get lost. Students do a thousand different things with their

books, none of which fall precisely under the category of reading.

They color them with pink underliners. They write obscure things in the margins. They check them out of

\the library in tonnage-lots, and then carry them around like the sins of mankind until they're three weeks overdue. They use them as filing cabinets for outlines and syllabi. They scan them, they skim them, and they even study them, but they never read them.

In the past five years, the only parts of books that I've had the occasion to read all of were the indexes -and the dictionaries-of-terms. Wonderful things to curl up with on a rainy Saturday night.

De Deep End

An English teacher recently told me that composi­tion teachers look at so much printed gook all the time that they often lose their ability to write. After a while, they begin to imitate the style of their students, and lose the ability to distinguish between what's good and what isn't .

It got me to thinking that maybe students are in­flicted with so many textbooks, they forget how to read . .

Did you ever sign up for the summer reading pro­gram in grade school? Read 10 books - any 10 books in the whole world - and you got a certificate that your mom stuck in a drawer that smelled like mothballs. I read thirty books one summer, and not a Tolstoy or a Kierkegaard in the bunch. I can't remember if they gave me three little certificates or one big one, but it doesn't matter. They were just destined for the mothballs, anyway.

Wouldn't it be nice if colleges came up with a sum­mer reading program? Same deal: Read 10 books, any 10 books, and you get a certificate of achievement from the English Department.

A hundred books, and maybe they could give you a degree in "Thinkology", just like the Scarecrow in The Wizard of Oz. It wouldn't mean anything, of course, but it would give you an excuse to actually enjoy reading for a change.

Maybe they should institute a Reading-ls-Fun pro­gram for college students. A mobile unit could travel from campus to campus giving away only those books that have no serious social significance and are less than 100-years-old. Guidance counselors could help

- The role of ears in history; at-last the truth can be heard

Hear Ye! Hear Ye! Listen up, for today's lesson tells ,~e tale of ears.

Ye heard right - ears. History has beeri told in many ways and through many modes, but has never been taken by the ear. This is one reason why history is known as the backward science. Unfolding the events of the past by tracing the ear throughout anti­quity has been, as yet, unheard of (irresistible pun). For instance, William Shakespeare presents history as a series of plays about kings and wars, but only seldom alludes to ears.

In Shakespeare's play, Julius Caesar, Mark Antony appeals to a crowd of Roman citizens: "Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears." With one Qf the greatest ears for language ever, Shakespeare should have noted the posmbility of misinterpretation. If the crowd had taken Antony literally, chopping off their ears in a patriotic gesture, they never would have heard what he had to say.

Fortunately for Antony (for what would he have done with all those ears?), and the state of Rome in general (there's probably not a ·more destructive force in the world than a gang of deaf, bleeding, angry, earless Romans), they merely listened. Using their ears in the proper manner, they learned that Brutus was the head of a conspiracy that had slain Caesar. Brutus, in kind, discovers that his ears are now being hunted for a wall trophy. Brutus runs himself through on his sword, and when Antony finds the body, he pro­claims Brutus to be .. the noblest Roman of them all." Ears and all.

Another distinguished ear belonged to one Vincent Van Gogh, the mad Dutchman and artist extraor­dinaire. Van Gogh, it would appear, took Antony's speech to heart, and actually lent an ear· to someone. The ear episode also involved another famous painter - Paul 9auguin.

~ -----

As it happened one night, Vincent became angry with Gauguin, and threw a wineglass at his head. (Hoping to take off one of Gauguin's ears, perhaps?) Luckily, he missed (or Gauguin ducked), but Van Gogh's anger was unabated. He went after Gauguin with a razor blade. A harsh word from Gauguin turn­ed Vincent away, but with razor still in hand, he decided to tum his fury upon himself in a suicidal fit. Fortunately for the art world (unfortunately for his ear), Vincent remembered a playful request made to him once by a prostitute (Vinnie!) for one of his .. fun­ny ears." So, albeit with a diabolical grin on his face, he lopped off a lobe.

He delivered the ear in person - what was left of his (person - to the door of the brothel. "Here, madame, is one of my ears." Nothing is said of the recipient's reaction. Most normal people would have freaked. It is probably accurate, certainly safe, to assume that the lady in question ceased to ask for any other of Vinnie's body parts. Van Gogh went on to become the artist whose work depicts the torment of the soul, which is obviously heedless to appearances.

As with other fables, ear chronicles provide insight into the distant drums of mankind's past, reverberating the need not to repeat mistakes. The moral of this story is, again, supplied by Mr. Shakespeare, and that with regard to ears: .. Neither a borrower nor a lender be."

That concludes today's history, art, biology, psychology, and philosophy lesson. Could someone please lend a hand erasing the blackboard? . ..

Uh, no! Not you, Vincent! Arghhh.

college students who had never before learned to chose a book for themselves. They could show them how to read without the help of pink underliners. They could teach them how to ignore the thematic significance of each chapter, or the historical context in which it was written. They could show them how to look at the pretty pictures without feeling guilty.

Reading without guilt - what a noble goal. Perhaps you'll understand when I confess to you that last week I read a book for absolutely no reason at all. I felt guilty as all get-out.

There I was, my desk creaking under the weight of volumes to be read before the end of the semester, and I was reading this book just because it caught my eye down at B. Dalton. God, I felt decadent.

What happened to me, is, I started daydreaming about graduation, and like any spoiled kid, I just couldn't wait to get a taste of what it was like. It was even better than I expected.

I read every single world, one, slow, syllable, at, a time. I reread my favorite parts, instead of the usual re-reading of my least favorite parts. I forgot what happened in chapter three, and I didn't even care. If chapter three wasn't fun enough to remember the first time, then I wasn't going to go back and read it again.

You know, I've spent the better part of my youth already, running like hell to get nowhere. I don't mind getting nowhere, 'cause that's the way the world is, but I'll tell you what: I'm looking forward to get­ting there in my own, sweet, time.

Beauty: a business_- tflai ·· by Nonna Restivo

Great beauty is highly prized in our society. Those possessing this gift are held in great esteem. They are envied, copied and endlessly gawked at. Placed on pedestals and held up as models for the rest of us, they become the ideal we are pushed to imitate.

The Auraria campus certainly has its share of attractive people, some striking­ly so. Yevett Leetham is one such for­tunate. She is a stunning brunette with brown doe eyes and a sleek figure most women would kill for. She attends school full time and models part time. She considers modeling as a hobby.

Modeling is not new to Y evett. She has worked mostly out of the Merchan­dise Mart, modeling clothes for prospec­tive buyers. She's somewhat short for high fashion modeling but has no regrets.

"The high fashion world is too com­petitive,' Yevett said. "It helps to know people." This holds true for most jobs!

A model's beauty can often be a hin­drance in getting to know others. People are sometimes threatened, often cold.

The professional edge for college graduates.

Yevett realizes a person must cut their own circle of friends. Her looks have even been a source of alienation.

"People put you at a distance from them," she said. "If a person can't get through what I look like, that's their

'problem."

Yevett is carrying a 4.0 average in her general studies courses at MSC. She would like to major in fashion merchan­dising, and because Metro doesn't offer this program, she will transfer to another school next fall.

Yevett takes her studies seriously. "I would like to be known for what's

inside my head," she emphasized. But even at that, Y evett is careful to

attend to her body. She weight lifts periodically and jo~ twice weekly. Her diet consists mainly of vegetables, though she admits to a weakness for ice cream.

She is quick to caution would-be models: "Connections are what get you places. The work itself is rewarding, but not easy. Beauty doesn't get you in­to modeling. You have to learn to use your beauty."

Modeling has taught Yevett how to wear clothing. She favors the mini skirt and the British punk look. Yet her sense of fashion is versatile - "Anything is in that you want to do."

t's more than skin deep

Diane Robles: "You have to be able to switch characters."

Diane Robles is another model with ex­tensive experience in the business. At 22, she has been modeling since the age of 11.

J "At eleven you tend to giggle ... you have to pretend like you know what you're doing," she recalled ... It was like a little fantasy I got to play."

Like Yevett, Diane is a part-time model. A stunning woman with long, dark hair, she is known as "the girl with

!: the smile."

!

She works for an agency called Talent Coordinators, but has also worked for International Hair Designs (modeling hair and makeup) and has experience in fashion merchandising. She has even

coordinated fashion shows herself, which involves clothes, fittings, rehear­sals, getting models to feel comfortable in front of an audience and other assign­ed tasks.

Diane attends MSC full time as an art major. She'd eventually like to enter the advertising field.

For Diane, one key aspect of modeling is being able to go into character. What does this involve?

"There's no talking .. . it's moving, really showing off the clothes," she ex­plained. "You have to be able to switch characters."

In addition to her regular studies, Diane has taken acting classes. She feels

these classes have sharpened her model­ing abilities and given her more poise in going in and out of character. This character could be punk or sophisticate, depending on the image the company is trying to project.

Diane was crowned North American Pageant System's Miss Colorado last May in Estes Park. She also won Miss Cover Girl and Miss Photogenic in the same contest. She found the pageant at­mosphere highly competitive. Her fellow contestants were flamboyant, coy, and often very insecure.

Diane eventually went on to the na­tionals in Louisville, Ky. , where she placed ih several categories and came in third in the semifinals. She found the daily routine to be a gruelling ex­perience.

"They're (pageant officials) watching you at all times," she said. "You have to watch how you talk, how you sit, your everyday gestures." She was called into a conference room for language unbecoming to her role. "They want professionalism ... period I"

Diane .does admit to pampering and attention before a photo session.

"They want to know everything about you," she said. "If Y<?U have a problem,

they try to boost you up." Having a close relationship with

his/her photographel' is important to any model. Diane prefers older photographers. She comes to look at them almost as brothers. She admits that any good photographer has a keen and critical eye, which tests a model's discipline and maturity.

"If you can't take criticism," Diane warns, "move away. I take criticism as a compliment. You're dealing with a lot of efficient people. They only want to tell you once."

For those interested in modeling, or just having the appearance of a model, Diane advises taking a class for poise, to keep up on current trends. She admits the classes are expensive, but feels the cost is offset by the renewed confidence a person experiences.

For both Y evett and Diane, modeling must involve more than attention to face and figure. As Yevett says, "I'm not some dingy broad they hang the clothes on."

Modeling is a job - cut and dried. It involves hard work, perseverance and the ability to take criticism. Both women have paid their dues in the field, but love the challenge! 0

Could Holocaust happen again? by Kathleen L. Humphreys

"Fear and Misery in the Third Reich", written by German playwright Bertolt Brecht in 1936, is a UCO theater pr~ duction which explores the distrust and internal destruction of Nazi Germanv. It's well worth seeing. ·

A collection of scenes, poetry and song5, the play penetrates the growing deceit which characterized that dark time in human history, according to director Laura Cuertara.

The play focuses not only on the Nazis and the persecuted Jews, but charts the pr~ of dehumanization which occurr­ed at every level of German society.

and more subtle, Cuetara said. But as long as chauvinism is tolerated, as it is in Russia, South Africa and the U.S., this play will have a vital place in our hearts.

Cuetara finds the play's message in the first scene.

"I think the first poem, 'To Prosperity' says it: 'When you think of our weaknesses, don't judge us too harshly."

This is the 50th anniversary of Hitler's rise to power and Cuetara believes that we need to feel the immediacy, the urgency. Much of what we do is look back, knowing it couldn' t happen here. And, she says, "It could."

"Fear and Misery in the Third Reich" ~ is the vehicle by which the viewer ex- ~ amines the domination of one group ~ over another. :;;

"It deals with the whole issue of the holocaust in the way that no other play dces," Cuetara said, "with the underly­ing symptoms - how and why did Nazism result - rather than self­righteously looking back."

Keith A. Dickson, in his book Toward3 Utopia A study of Brecht, wrote, "His aim was to counter the myth of the twentieth century with a documentary of actual conditions."

"What Brecht does is engage you," i Cuetara explained. "He doesn' t resolve £ the issues for you. You take and apply _g it, resolve it for yourself." a..

Another skit, "The Worker's Hour," is a scene in which a Nazi broadcast features compatriots at a textile factory responding to the Nazi spokeswoman who says, "We see around us only perfectly contented and gay faces." But a German worker is bodily removed from the premises when she blurts the truth.

The philosophy of a "master race" did not die at the end of World War II. The subjugation of one group by another may have become more sophisticated

A vignette (brief literary description or dramatic sketch) described the Jew:

"Is that man a misfortune for us? Then he is a Jew."

And the "Jewish Wife" scene depicts a wife leaving her husband and she says, "Let's not talk about misfortune, let's talk about shame."

Carla Devarenne

MSC Student Activities Office

Dickson describes the skit: "The Worker's Hour," in which a carefully rigged propaganda broadcast is almost ruined by factory workers speaking out of turn, deflates the streamlined image of a happy and prosperous working community."

Cuetara relates the scenes to our time, our country.

"It's here, it could happen tomorrow," she said.

"This play is under my skin," Cuetara emphasized. "I have this real, almost zionistic (and I'm not Jewish), but com­plete drive within me to do this work, to convey it actively to the audience."

And she does.

'ibe Informer", a scene which inspires a lump in one's throat, transmits the fear ' that changes to terror and corrodes the family unit. Dickson describes the fear:

"Man and wife fear that neighbours will denounce them for listening in to foreign radio stations, or that the Blockward has it in for them because their New Year's gratuity was too paltry, or that even their own child will betray them to the Gestapo for criticiz­ing the regime."

A line from the play underlines the despair.

"For not even our own children have we spared; new gods have driven out the Christian gods and peace and there is no god.''

Many Germans resisted the Nazis in a home situation until the home was less and less safe.

The play begins against a backdrop of slide projections which depict German life. A sombre mood is communicated by the character's grave expressions, stiff collars and stark, artistic portrayal. German marching songs underscore the heaviness.

Out of 24 scenes, Cuetara chose 16 and searched out poetry by Brecht for the in-between vignettes. The vignettes don't rely on melodrama; they are not overdone.

"It's a very specific, unique produc­tion," Cuetara said.

She worked between three different original translations in collaboration with Kent Casper of the UCO German Department.

"I edited some of the scenes," she said.

...

..

"Some of the material is more rhetorical - • than dramatic and it was hard to find a way to present it."

Dean Franz Roehmann, professor Ron Stein and student Tad Millard from the College of Music helped produce pre­recorded and live music utilizing the songs of Hans Eisler as well as tradi­tional German music. This inter­disciplinary approach is quite effective.

"The show is about one-half the act­ing and one-half the projection, lights and sound," Cuetara explained.

The Acting Ensemble includes Mikel Bergman, Gordon B. Hamby, Tom Hanna, Michael Pinney, Curt Pesicka, Jules Allawas Jones, Wendy Lement, Christina Renck, Mary Sawyer and J ohnni Vetter.

'Tm really happy with what the act­ors did," Cuetara said. "Most of them are students who don't have a lot of training, but the skill and spirit are quite good.''

'Tm quite happy with what happen­ed." she said. "Looking at the audience's faces as they left, I could tell that what we intended to do, we did.''

Cuetara has directed the Off-Off Broadway hit, "Between Us" in New York; "Laughter and Hope and a Sock in the Eye" at UCO; "The Shadow Box" at the Arvada Center; "The Elephant Man" at the Nomad Playhouse; and "Under Milkwood" at Theater Under Glass.

Performances of "Fear and Misery in \ the Third Reich" will be held April 21,

22, and 23 in Room 278 of the Arts Building. Tickets are $4, $2 for students. For reservations and informa­tion call 629-2730. D

The Metropolitan Singers Will give a concert at St. Cajetan's Center on Mon­day, April 25, at 8 p.m. The program will be a potpourri of choral music.

D . McCollurn, director of choral ac­tivities for the MSC Department of Music not even all music students are really 'good at reading. music.

In the first part of their concert they will sing some classical works "from Bach to Bernstein"; the second part will consi.St of blues, jazz and other more contemporary works.

Being a Metropolitan Singer is hard work. Besides giving frequent concerts, they have rehearsal every day and also study the ideas and history of the music they perform.

The Metropolitan Singers started when MSC itself was launched. With the pas.sage of the years, the choir has gone through many changes. Originally a madrigal group, it later became a show choir, eventually turned into a mixed vocal-jazz concept, then a concert choir. Now tt has crystallized into a small elite troupe of the very tip-top

vocal students of Auraria. The Singers perform with a small

combo or a capella. With some of their numbers that need a little extra, they do short choreography, usually composed by the group. Conductor McCollum says he has always been lucky enough to have one or more _ members of the Singers who are or have been involved with dance. Several of the 29 members are not music students, nor are they all MSC students. Any Auraria student with a good -voice may apply for an audition.

Many members of the Metropolitan Singers also sing in the MSC Concert Choir, which has 85 members and is open to all students, faculty and staff at Auraria. Most of the 85 ~e music students, but the choir now has 10 facul­ty and staff, besides students from all the other disciplines.

While the Metropolitan Singers per­form a variety of music, the Concert Choir is ·beginning to concentrate on larger works and to perform with large orchestras, such as the Denver Sym­phony and the MSC Orche5tra., Mc­Collum is planning a concert for the Choir next semester of the complete Brahms' Requiem to celebrate the 150th anniversary of the composer's birth. .

The Concert Choir doesn't tour as much as the Singers. McCollum, who is in charge of both groups, says it's easier to move 29 people than 851 Students participating in either group receive academic credit. ·

The Metropolitan Singers do an average of 15 to 20 performances each semester. One term they did 40, but that was really too many, says Mc-

-"MSC's baseball record now 12~17 by Tony Patino

MSC' s baseball team won two and dropped three this weekend in the Denver tournament, hosted by MSC.

• Six teams from around the state par­ticipated in the tournament.

The weekend's activities brought the Roadrunners record to 12-17 overall for the season.

MSC's victories came against Col­orado College 19-13, and Western State

r . College, 11-1. The three roadrunner losses came against Southern Colorado 5-2, Colorado School of Mines 5-3, and University of Denver 9-1.

MSC baseball coach Bill Helman com­mented that overall the team's perfor­

"" mance was "fair, but inconsistent; we didn't hit the ball well in three of the games at all.''

Helman said his pitching was good, ·commenting that he had, "three ex­~llent performances, but two pitchers got hit real hard. Overall, it was good,

':- just like it has been all year." Coach Helman had high praise for

three of his pitchers, Pat Smaldone, Bob .

Sports Notes by Tammy Williams · .

Scott Smith, the MSC freshman whose goal is to compete in the 1984 Handicap­ped Olympics, conquered his first obstacle by earning two wins in the Handicapped_National Championships

· -held in Squaw Valley, Calif., March 21 to 27. -

Smith, who is partially blind, won gold medals in both the downhill and slalom events of the national competi­tion. These medals, whl%.n added to those he won in the 1978 and 1979 na-

,; · tional championships, reach a grand total of five gold and three silver.

Even though Smith has been racing nationally for six years, one of the most demanding_ competitions that he may ever participate in will be the olympic

~ tryouts for the United States Association for Blind Athle.tes, which will be held next week in Alta, Utl\h.

The MSC men's varsity outdoor track team had another impressive day when it finished third out of the ten teams that

~ were represented in the Colorado University Relays Saturday.

The outstanding MSC Roadrunners were Travis McKinley, who set a new record for the 400 meter race with a time of 47.9 seconds, as well as placing second in the 200 meter run; Joel Dunn-

L- ing, who won the 400 meter hurdle race, and All-American Char-lee Blueback placed second in the 1500 meter race by setting a new personal record with a time of 3:57.5.

Geraldine Hall, the top placer for the MSC , women' s team , won the

::.. 400-meter-hurdles race. She led her squad to an overall finish of seventh place.

The MSC men's team will compete in the University of Northern Colorado's Invitational, April 23, while the women's squad will run in the Universi-

- ~ ty of Southern Colorado's Invitational meet. 0

. . . ~... . .... . .

Weber, and Mike Hornberger. "Pat Smaldone has probably the

smallest earned run average at MSC ever, he's pitched exceptional all year and has been the staff ace."

Smaldone currently has an earned run average of 2.80 to go with a 3-3 record.

"Bob Weber recorded his first win," Helman said. "He's pitched well all year, he just hasn't had the support behind him." ·

Weber is carrying a 4.80 earned run average.

"Mike Hornberger pitched seven good innings against School of Mines holding them to three runs before losing in extra innings,4

' Helman said. "He's also pitch­ed well this year."

Hornberger's earned run average is currently 4.77.

Helman also had praise for the hitting of first baseman Greg Isenhart and third baseman John Quarton.

"Isenhart is really hitting the ball this year," he said. "In the tournament he

went seven £or thirteen with seven runs batted in."

Isenhart's batting average is .416 for the year.

"John Quarton went six for twelve over the weekend and hit another home run." Quarton leads the team in home runs with six for the year.

Helman siad that defense has hurt the team somewhat this year. .

"Our defense has been weak due to youth and inexperience," he s~d. , _D
