The special districts range from areas a few blocks long, formed to provide residents with two fire hydrants, to districts encompassing thousands of acres around metropolitan developments, ski

t- resorts and energy impac! areas. Dodie Gale, executive director of the

lobbyist Special District Association, said "around 200" of the special districts can be considered "development districts" -where the developer plays a key role in land sales, building, and governing 'the

, • service districts. Gale said the present system is "ap­

propriate" for new developments, since the developer is usually the only lan­downer in the area and the water and sanitation facilities have to be in place before the homes are constructed.

> If the developers had to put the services in themselves, instead of using the money from the sale of bonds, it would add $10,000 to $15,000 to the cost of each home, Gale said.

"The tax-exempt bonds (which are later paid back with the property truces

~ from the district) present a much lower cost to the consumer and homeowner," she said.

The energy boom will bring more special districts into being . . . The potential for abuse will be multiplied.

Senate ethics bill introduced There seems to be little support ·in

the legislature for a proposed ethics bill, and even the bill's advocates are pessimistic about its passage.

Sen. Regis Groff

Senate Bill 168, written by the State Attorney General's office and sponsored by Sen. Regis Groff, provides a definition of conflict-of­interest in conducting state business. The bill sets a treble penalty for a person who realizes personal profit in conducting state business.

"(SB-168) sets standards ap­propriate to people in both state and local governments," said First Assistant Attorney General Steve Kaplan. "It sets up uniform standar­ds and is more restrictive than what you will find in the variety of statutes we now have."

r ,_)

Kaplan said the law was written as a protective measure rather than as a response to any existing situation. Now, he said, the law only requires an official to disclose a conflict-of-in­terest.

"There is a great potential for abuse right now,•• he said, "especially at the local and special district level. Abuses can occur that people don't even know are abuses (of governmental powers)."

He said the bill draws a line and provides criteria to judge such con­flicts.

Senator Fred Anderson, president of the Colorado Senate, said he feels the current laws and legislative guidelines provide enough protection against a public official or employee who uses his position for personal profit.

He said the proposed law may create the same problems with con­flicts-of-interest that occur at the federal level. Such laws discourage people from participating in gover­nment, he said, because they "don't want to go through the hassle" of having their families, investments, and property examined for conflicts.

"The standards of ethics in Colorado is as high if not higher than

any state that I've really looked at," Anderson said.

Sen. Regis Groff agrees with An­derson that Colorado is a fairly "clean" state, but said SB-168 is "a good piece of law and ought to be In the statutes."

He said the General Assembly must act to govern potentialities inherent in the system. He said the bill provides clear guidelines to prevent corruption.

Kaplan said his office has resear­ched conflict-of-interest legislation at the federal level and similar laws of the surrounding states. He said the bill was drafted with those problems in mind. SB-168, he said, is not "burdensome" for state officials.

"It is a pretty straight forward law," he said. "It sets clear guidelines about what kind of con­duct is expected of government em­ployees."

He said a similar bill was defeated two years ago, and he is not "overly optimistic" about the chances of the current bill.

SB-168 is now in the Senate State Affairs Committee and a hearing da,te for the bill bas not been set.

News Looking at the new order with Ronnie

, >

...

by Thomas S. Fox

With all the special significance of a lame dog going blind, the Nixon ad­ministration came to a bad end in August 1974, leaving Gerald Ford as the nation's illegitimate president.

The nation's long and disastrous in­volvement in Vietnam had drained the economy and produced a recession-like condition. Ford refused to call it a recession, but at least a few of the Washington press corps members did not share his optimism.

Ford was convinced that inflation was the product of irresponsible government spending. In late 1974, he told members of the press that his "objective would be a balanced budget in 1979.'' Yet in February 1975, just a few months later, he submitted a budget to Congress with so many billions and millions and billion millions that even Carl Sagan would have trouble with the numbers.

Even though the war in Vietnam was officially over, Ford boosted military spending. Inflation, which had ceased af­ter previous wars, began to inch upward. The United States seemed more or less locked into a permanent wartime economy.

Ford, who will long be remembered for -. headlong tumbles down the stairs of Air

Force One, went to the American people for help. He asked them to send him a list of ten ways to whip inflation. Little blue buttons with WIN (Whip Inflation Now) in white letters would remind the nation that everyone had to help the President.

And if ever there was a man who needed help, it was Ford. He received thousands of letters and lists from all over America. The lists are probably in a shoe box somewhere in the Gerald Ford Library, since it's apparent they were never used.

,, Jimmy Carter campaigned successfully against Ford, with the economy as one of the central campaign issues. Ford became another name on the list of ex-presidents.

Jimmy Carter proposed a two-year, $31.2 billion economic recovery package. Mostly this consisted of public works and

·..; training programs, with emphasis on reducing the numbers of unemployed workers.

Congress never really did anything with this program, passing only bits and pieces of it. Lack of cooperation with Congress became a hallmark of the Car­ter administration.

According to Carter, had his programs been passed the budget could have been balanced as early as 1983 or 1984. As it was, the budget slid toward an ever­increasing deficit. It was this record of steadily increasing deficits that Ronald

-' Reagan attacked with his best showman's oratory.

The nation had been disillusioned many times in the seventies. The em­barrassing war in Vietnam, the shameful resignation of a president and his ad­ministration, the steadily worsening

~ economy, and the humiliatipn at the hands of Iran all combined to defeat Jimmy Carter last November.

The first major project of America's new head coach was to deal with the economy. Reagan had talked tough for a year and a half - now it had become.

r time to deliver on his promises. Reagan has discussed his budget

proposals at some length on television and before Congress. Everyone within a fifty-mile radius of Washington has speculated what this will mean in terms of real dollars saved.

What is clear is that whatever is saved through budget cuts will be spent several times over by the Pentagon. Reagan has called for an additional $6.8 billion to be tacked on to the Carter defense budget, bringing the total to over $178 billion for fiscal 1981 .

Reagan has also recommended that the defense budget be raised next year to $222.2 billion. That's $222,200,000,000. Using crude calculation, that's a stack of thousand dollar bills fourteen miles high.

Many economic wizards in Washington feel that even if Reagan manages to get his proposals through Congress unaltered, and saves us a billion zillion dollars, the savings will be devoured by the increase in defense spen­ding.

News Analysis Second of two parts

The massive increases in military spen­ding may bring on another Vietnam-style drain on the economy, according to George McGovern. He says nothing less than a large-scale transfer of resources from the military back to the private sector can break the inflationary cycle.

This is due to ' the fact that military goods are not investments. If the private sector spends one million dollars, goods and services are generated that may be purchased. When the military spends one million dollars, wages are generated, but no goods or services to purchase with them. In other words, military spending generates demand, but no supply.

However, Ronald Reagan seems to think that he can curb inflation while still giving the military whatever it wants. Last December, he joked that he might have to keep two sets of books to do this. That might become less of a joke as the year goes on.

What Reagan's proposals mean here and now is reasonably clear. If you are receiving any government aid (student loans, welfare, etc.) it will be harder to get. Reagan has asked for cuts in the Veterans Administration, which may also affect you. Also, I wouldn't bother ap­plying for any cushy government grants, if I were you. When it comes to funding, a silo for an MX missile will be favored over finding a cure for any type of can­cer.

In short, the government is going to deliver several truck loads of blank checks to the Pentagon and the taxpayer will foot the bill. We will have lots of new, shiny planes and ships and things. While students at Auraria curse RTD, nuclear warheads will be driven around Utah and Nevada in their own private subway system.

Last November, John Anderson said it was not possible to balance the budget, cu~ t~es, and incre~se military spending all. ~t. th.e ~ame time. History just might prove him right . .' . . : . '. > ... .. . .

Letters Parking office

The letter submitted by Peter Geoffroy (February 4, 1981), is rather universal in describing the frustrations that students, faculty, and staff all must feel. Often times the '"impersonal" system seems to overlook the individual and his/ her needs. There is, however, a method to every madness and in order to understand some of it a bit better, I would like to address the points which were made concerning parking at Auraria.

By Colorado law, no state funds whatsoewer may be used for the operation of parking. This piece of legislation therefore necessitates the charging of a ser­vice fee to parking users to cover the annual expenses incurred which include: bond, payments and reserves; personnel; maintenance; utilities; services; and equip­ment. Fines are also imposed on violators of parking regulations in order to deter and/or eliminate the thoughtlessness of these parkers. The most common violation is not paying for parking.

When this occurs, the individuals who do pay are in essence subsidizing those who willingly and knowingly choose to "rip off" the"system. If this practice goes un­checked, the result will be increased rates to cover the fixed expenses. The computerized citation system, then, is intended to keep costs down by providing a more ac­curate control mechanism.

There are approximately 4,600 spaces available to serve the nearly 30,000 people at Auraria, with no available land space to provide additional parking. New' policies are continually being consider.ed and attempted which will place the needs of the Auraria parkers as the top priority. One such implementation is the $1.50 per day rate to non-Aurarians in lots P and Q. This had deterred some, but not enough of the downtown parkers. This policy will continually be revamped until the optimum Auraria utilization is rea9ted at the lowest possible fee.

The flat $15 per semester was suggested as a possible solution. This system, however, saddles everyone on campus with the financial burden without consideration for non-parkers. Currently, an alternative system exists for those not wishing to pay the daily rate, that being monthly parking permits for $14 or $12/month. This is more expensive than the blanket fee suggested, but the individuals using the serV.ce are the ones covering the cost. Additional lots can be designated for this type of patron as the requests present themselves.

The Auraria Parking Office is continually in contact

Student Body Presidential Report

with not only other universities with parking systems, but also commercial-s parking enterprises. Auraria presents a most unique problem being a larger inner city campus. Most similar campuses do not offer any parking at all, and those that do are often more expen­sive than what is charged at Auraria.

The Parking Office attempts to remain sensitive to all the needs on campus. One method of communication is the Auraria Parking Advisory Council composed of students, faculty, and staff. I encourage you to utilize

· your peers in this group as they provide much of the direction to the parking services. Keep in mind however, that every suggestion can not be implemented as submit­ted, but all attempts are made to take the best possible alternatives for all of Auraria.

Should anyone be interested in more information-, contact an APAC member or myself. You'd be pleasan-

• tly surprised at what you will learn.

Daily paper Special interest groups rule. Our weekly (weakly?)

newspaper has left itself open to the agitations and aggravating influences of the special interest groups. A weekly newspaper cannot hope to capture the ideas, in­terests, and especially, the potential involvment that is inherent, however hidden, in the status quo of our student bodies. I sometimes think the special interest groups are the only ones that read THE METRO POLIT AN, as they are the only ones inspired enough by i~ articles to reply in the way of a letter.

I am tired of Anti. Anti-Coors Beer, Anti-ROTC, Anti-Government, etc. If I want to drink Coors beer, participat.e in student government, or up and join the army I feel I should at least have that choice here on campus. I'd wager that most students do feel this way. However, the special-interest clans that take advantage of t~is media as a cheap form of publicity are taking away these inalienable rights.

Allow ROTC As one whose name had to be called twice before

stepping forward at the U.S. Army Induction Center in 1968 and who refused to fly combat missions into Cam­bodia in 1970, I feel I must respond to Sally Johnson and Lori Davis Windler's letter protesting the proposal to allow Air Force ROTC on campus. .

Their contention that the role of the campus is a place where "people learn to enrich life" is hopelessly, almost laughably mistaken. The role of the campus is to expose the student to ideas, philosophies and cultural traditions beyond the secondary school level. Granted, some of these ideas may be repulsive (nazism, communism, cap­italism - - take your pick), enlightening (feminism, gay rights or Hinduism) or merely silly (witchcraft.) But, unflinching exposure to (and not necessarily acceptance of) all ideas is what enriches the human spirit and ultimately, life itself.

Being exposed to all ideas (even the worst ones) is what allows students to learn "to use their reasoning power," precisely that which Ms. Johnson and Ms. Windler so ardently feel is the campus' role. Students cannot learn to use their reasoning power and be sheltered from unpleasant ideas. The two notions are incompatible.

To my knowledge no one has ever perished from reading ROTC literature or from talking to recruiters. It is indeed sad (and more than a little patronizing) that the co-authors of this letter have such little respect for the intelligence of thelr fellow students. I;m sure they can reason and arrive at their own "moral" choices without Ms. Johnson's or Ms. Windler's advice.

Hews Ski industry rolls with the punches

by Randy Golkin I While most people are soaking up the

sun and enjoying Colorado's mild winter, skiers would like to see a thick blanket of

"' snow covering the mountains for the next few months.

This year's drought has hurt Colorado's skiing industry but optimism still sparkles through the souls of many skiers.

One skier, Barry Clements from the .._ Auraria ski club, was happy about the

fact that their membership is higher than last year's was, and he said the club goes skiing every couple of weeks.

However, the drought hasn't passed them by without leaving a scar. Clements feels that 65 members is inadequate. He said, "It indirectly hurt our membership because most of our members are novices and beginners and with the price of list tickets and the lack of snow, most of them aren't even skiing tl)is year."

Debbie Dix, director of public re-lations at Colorado Ski Countcy said,

' ~"I don't know if Colorado will be able to

. make a comeback, but now the con­ditions have improved greatly and all the major resorts are open."

"We just help the clouds in a storm precipitate,;, Jameson said, "But cloud­seeding can't be produced at the snap of a finger. It depends on the wind, the tem­perature, how much moisture is in the clouds and of course there must be a storm."

WWC sells contracts for three months, and Goldman, who has a contract right now, says it's worthwhile .

The contract cost Vail $20,000. But, whenever it's about 20 degrees outside and a storm is passing through, Vail is sure to get snow.

"$20,000 in snow-making equipment is virtually nothing, but this contract is star­ting to pay off," Goldman said. "In fact, just about an hour ago (Friday, 3 p.m.) we got three inches of snow from zapping the clouds."

The difficult task of creating snow is putting a terrible burden on the expense accounts at the ski areas. But these added expenses are the ski area's losses, so skiers don't need to worry too much about next year's lift ticket prices in­creasing.

Most of the ski areas are using man­made devices to create what used to be a

'natural winter environment. The two most popular-alternatives to

completely natural snow are snow­making machines and cloudseeding. In fact, both of these alternatives are becoming a necessity for . Colorado Ski resorts.

r According to John Goldman, public relations director of Vail Associates, snow-making is a very lengthy and expen­sive process.

It all starts from a main water supply that pumps water through underground pipes all over the mountain. These un­.aerground pipes run into snow-making machines that are placed on the slopes. The machines then freeze the water and blow it out as snow.

The time and money involved to install an effective snow-making system can take an entire summer and run into several tens of thousands of dollars.

Cloudseeding, the other alternative for creating snow, can be a little more economical (depending on the method used) but it isn't always as reliable as the snow-making machines.

Western Weather Consultants (WWC) in Durango contract cloudseeding to many of Colorado's ski areas.

Terry Jameson, a consulting meterologist from WWC, said they save money by using propane generators on the ground instead of flying planes overhead.

-- The generators are set up near the area to be seeded, and when a storm is ap­proaching operators load the generators with 10 to 20 grams of silver iodide.

The silver iodide is shot into the wind which carries it to the clouds. When the silver iodide reaches the clouds a freezing process begins and minutes- ' later

matter of fact1 they are submitting their lift ticket prices for the '81-82 season now.''

So, even though lift ticket prices will most likely increase, the skiing industry won't be able to make up for this year's loss by doubling next year's prices.

As a result, the skiing industry and the State of Colorado will be the ones who incur the loss. Nobody will know the exact figures until the season is over. At that time Colorado Ski Country will publish a consumer guide which states the gains or losses for the year.

Looking at the situation from an overall picture, Dix explained that tourism is Colorado's fourth largest revenue and the skiing industry usually brings in one-third of the money made from those tourists. This year however, the skiing industry will probably bring in less.

feature MSC major unique, expensive

by Larry Huntoon

Engine failure caused the airplane to descend rapidly. A baffled ·first year aerospace student sits at the control panel of a flight simulator.

Aerospace science is unfamiliar to most people at Metropolitan State College, but to the close-knit group of students and instructors aerospace is a future.

Squadrons of model airplanes float above the desks of the aerospace office, while in an adjoining classroom students are educated on flight simulators. Students are educated in the physiology of pilots, aviation law, safety, meteorology and airport management.

Leroy Orht, chairman of the aerospace science department, is positive about the future of aerospace education. According

in this area as well as management for the large airports.

to Orht, the government has projected a need for aerospace education especially pilots and mechanics in aviation. ·

The aerospace science prognm is unique because only five institutions of higher education in the U.S. offer four­year degree programs. The growth at MSC has been so great that the depart­ment is overflowing with students. Most classes were filled by mail in r~gistration.

Many students become flight instruc­tors before graduation. Prior to graduation every student must obtain a -private pilot license and a commer­cials/ instrument license.

The more than 600 students in aerospace science can plan majors in either aviation management or in professional piloting. General aviation and aviation management are the two emphases of aviation management. The . professional pilot has two areas of education available. With an emphasis as a flight engineer a student can choose a career with a commercial airlines or the military. Because commercial airlines are not hiring, many students are choosing the military where the demand is great, according to Orht.

The cost of the licenses allow only the dedicated to complete an aerospace degree. However, according to Orht, students rarely drop out of the aerospace program. Besides tuition, the student , must pay $8,565 for both licenses.

When students aren't flying, they ob­tain classroom education on one of 10 single engine flight simulators. Ground education through flight simulators is very popular because of the cost of logged flying time.

The aerospace science major has been with MSC since the college's start. Dr. Gail Phares, d~ of professional studies, is recognized as founder of the program at MSC.

~ The professional pilot can also choose to exercise his wings with a private cor­poration or as a flight instructor.

Courses are geared toward the needs of the student's future. Sinte most airport management students will start out at small airports, education is emphasized

Phares was teaching in California j. where aerospace science was very suc­cessful. He was brought to MSC with the idea of developing a similar program. The businesses of Colorado have a need for aerospace science and" the need is proving fruitful for MSC. · ,,,.

Irish debaters

- No blarney from these boys l ~

MSC has been chosen as one of 11 colleges nationwide to host a formal debate with the three winners of the Irish Times Debating Competition in 1981.

The St. Patrick's Day debate topic is "Resolved, That Protection of the National Environment is a More Im­portant Goal Than the Satisfaction of American Energy Demands." The debate will be preceeded by a perforinance of

4 traditionitl Irish dancers and pipers. Ray Mueller, a senior majoring in ac­

in the debate. Mueller also competed last year - the first year the Irish debated in Denver. ·

Meuller looks forward to the debate, although he thinks it will be a difficult competition. He said the Irish team are "all excellent debaters."

Extensive research has been done on the topic in preparation for the debate, Ml!eller said. He said he is very comfor­table with the topic because he has ex­perience in both discussion and research in the area.

Mueller believes MSC will do well in

the competition because of the school's good showing last year - a performance recognized in Ireland for the college's ef.: forts.

This year's debate will differ from last year's because Mueller will be paired with a member of the Irish team. The trans­Atlantic team will then compete against the other two Irish debaters.

Only Mueller was selected to represent MSC because he is the best qualified, said •Gary Holbrook, associate professor of speech at MSC. Americans place less em­phasis on developing debating skills than the Irish, who consider conversation an art, said Holbrook, the coordinator of the Irish Times Deb.ate Tour of the United States.

The Irish Times Debating Competition is sponsored by Dublin's Irish Times. Over 100 debaters entered the com­petitign, and only three were selected to participate in a tour of the United States.

David Cooke, 20, a third year law student; Sean Moran, also 20, and a third year law student; and Gerry Stembridge, 22, and a Master's graduate in English/Literat.ure make up the Irish Debat~ Team.

The debate begins at I :30 p.m. at St. Cajetan's on the Auraria campus. The dancers and pipers perform at 1 p.m. The program is free, and sponsored by Adolph Coors Company and Coors Dis­tributing Company of Denver.

continued from page 6 newspaper. I brought up two major areas of concern on this campus that could use improvement. Areas of interest relevent to every student on this campus, whether from MSC, UCO or CCD, whether 18 or 35 years old, and whether black, white or brown, in the hopes of encouraging let­ters in return promoting a campus daily that could get these problems solved. But most importantly, I was attempting to draw out of this newspaper an article showing the feasibility of a daily. A daily that could become part of the regular routine of the students that spend the most time and energy on this campus. A daily that would receive enough letters in reply to fact-finding, prqblem solving, controversial (to all) articles that the issues of the gays and to the minority special interest groups would be shoved to the background where they belong. I have yet to see this article of feasibility and I· now leave it up to you as I watch and wait and gradually lost interest as everyone else has done. Peter Geoffroy

A few artists survive new wave' s ebb tide

by Emerson Schwartzkopf .. I Reviewed this week:

MONDO BONGO/ The Rats/Columbia JC 37062 PHIL SEYMOUR/Phil Boardwalk FW -36996

Boomtown

Seymour/

1979 proved to be a landmark year in popular music. With the release of Don­na Summer's Bad Girls, discotheque music reached its height; and, also that year, the big new wave push began.

As with any other product, cor­porations realized there was money, big money to be made with new wave music. A number of good, fair, and awful bands hit with big contracts and other benefits of the cresting new wave.

Very few of those artists, however, lived up to any kind of long run expec­tations (such as The Sex Pistols, or the later efforts of The Knack). The list of consistent, improving new wave bands becomes shorter with every new release.

One band eluding this downward trend is The Boomtown Rats, Ireland's main contribution to the new wave scene. A Tonic For The Troops and The Fine Art Of Surfacing maintained the cynical at­titudes and hot beat of new wave; both albums also gained the Rats an jm-

pressive following. Mondo Bongo, The Rats' newest

release, should maintain the group's popularity. Although not an outstanding work, Mondo Bongo ranks a clear step above the manufactured swill popping up in local record shops and the Grabme (excuse, Grammy) awards.

Like The Police's Zenyatta Mondatta, Mondo Bongo incorporates some Third World melodies and rhythyms into the new wave sound. However, the Rats use Mondo Bongo to go nuts with all sorts of cheesy ideas.

A prime example comes with the album's first traek, "Mood Mambo." The Rats explode here into four minutes of l 950s-style sleaze reeking with the mustiness of Prado Prado and the an­cient bossa nova. With leader Bob Geldof droning out the lyrics like a burned-out beat poet, "Mood Mambo." both amuses and sets those feet dancin'.

The rest of Mondo Bongo shows little of the innovation of "Mood Mambo." Odd bongos turn up occaisionally on other track, but their use lacks th~ fresh comedy exhibited with "Mambo." The cynicism of the Rats does manage to shine, however, -on songs like "Ban·ana Republic" and "Hurt Hurts."

Although "end of the empire" songs usually pale when compared to The

Kinks' Arthur, the Rats' "Another Piece Of Red" uses an effective amount of pathos to describe Britain's slide into secondary world influence. Even though the horrible U .K. economic strife which gave birth to the punk movement has begun to subside, ''Another Piece Of Red" gives a fine accounting of why "nobody's buying British" anymore.

JTue Competition' a weak contest by Janet Singleton

THE COMPETITION/ Starring Richard Dreyfuss, Amy Irving, Lee Remick, and Sam Wanamaker/ produced by William Sackbeim/ written and directed by Joel Oliansk.y/ a Columbia Pictures release

The Competitio.n is a film with con­fused priorities. It tells the tale of a con­test for pianists where contenders liie for a large cash sum and a two-year concert tour - and the latter is the more treasured prize.

Recognition as a concert pianist is a rare honor for musicians. The fruits of years of piano study are often so meager

.Jthat it makes the possibilities for excelling as a writer or visual artist look like a bonanza. Killing for the privilege of a performance tour would be almost, to the pianist, justifiable homicide.

Yet, Amy Irving as Heidi and Richard Dreyfuss as Paul are distracted from the most important moment of their lives by a mediocre, adolescent attraction to each other.

There is also a very troubled, young Russian woman who competes despite the political defection of her teacher. Her situation is used in the movie, however, tmly as a device to prolong the days before the recitals. Perhaps the film's

writers figured foreigners wouldn't be a good box office draw.

A New York Italian enters the com­petition not because he desires to become a serious, concert pianist, but for want.of simple, crass fame - to be a cross bet-

ween Barry Manilow and John Travolta. He makes up inner-city blues stories, complete with poverty and reform school, to get the attention of the press.

Beethoven led him out of the ghetto, he says during an interview. His family is

.. very stereotypical, however; they act like rejects from The Montefuscos. Action of any consequence (and it's of very little•

consequence) takes place between Heidi and Paul.

Dreyfuss is the only actor who manag~s to convey intensity in his desperation to succeed. The others mav have well been in a gunny sack race

where the top prize is an apple pie. Amy Irving is the chief offender in The

Competition's plot. From the opening, she appears more in the mood for roman­ce than music.

Lc;e Remick gives a stimulating per­formance as Greta, her teacher-mentor, who trys to snap her out of it. When Ir­ving considers withdrawing to let the

older, time-constrained Paul win, Greta reminds her that obligatory altruism is a killing trap for women.

Remick tells Irving that if she steps aside this year for a less fortunate male, she may do the saine next year thereafter. "Then when you're old," Remick says sarcastically, "some twenty-three-year­old man will do the same for you."

Irving, unfortunately, has the lines of a nitwit. When she wins, she consoles Drefuss by saying things like, "You played rings around all of us." As if that isn't criminally cliche enough, she goes ­on to beg him not to leave by declaring, "What I need now is a strong man in my life."

What is ostensibly the film's main theme is undercut and reduced to a back­drop for an affair. A more proper title for this movie is "The Love Story meets The Paper Chase at Carnagie Hall."

It is sad The Competition tells so little about the intrigues of classical music in­terpretation today.

The Turning Point stimulated an in­terest in ballet. All That Jazz offered the feeling of modern dance. The Com­petition allowed Mozart and the gang to remain in the esoteric loft. That is its primary failure, for disco-raped America could certainly use a music appreciation lesson.

What saves Phil Seymour from falling into the mush of icky pop comes from the music just being plain fun. As dumb as the subject matter gets with his music, Seymour presents a bright and upbeat style. It's feelgood time.

J; by Terron Hutt Dean Esmeil, a 1977 MSC graduate, is the assistant coach for the team.

The month of March marks the begin­ning of college tennis, season. The MSC Men's Varsity team will be accompanied on court this year by a new Head Coach, John Arntz.

Arntz, in his first year as team coach, filso works fulltime as the director of In­formation Analysis (Institute of Research Department) for MSC.

Arntz has played tennis since high school, "basically intramurals," he said. "Marc Rabinoff told me last semester the former tennis coach had .

'other duties and could not return. I did not want to see the team fall apart.

"Although I had not taught before, I told Rabinoff I could do the ad­ministration part," Arntz said. "I'd hoped I would find someone to help out

Arntz has a unique way of recruiting for the team. "We run a class. both Spring and Fall semesters called Varsity Tennis. We run it like a class using Fall semester as try outs. Anyone can enroll and try out," he said.

Arntz also believes in competing. "We let players move up the ladder by allowing them to play people above them," he commented.

Regarding his game plan Arntz remarked, "I'm trying to find good doubles combinations and analyze which combinations of two work well to­gether.

...with practice and I found Dean.'' •.

Games were cancelled due to inclement weather the first week of the season. However, there are plenty more games ahead to keep an eye on Arntz and the MSC Men's Tennis Team.
