As he inched towards the front of the line at station C of Metro's walk-in registration, Ken Utzinger began to worry.

"I just sold my house and quit my job (a computer salesman) to go to school," Utzinger said. 'Tm getting a little nervous about this now."

He had plenty to worry about. Around 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, admis­sions officials halted the registration line and onlv allowed students to trickle in one-by-one.

The enrollment cap-placed on MSC by state legislators for the first time in the school's history-was about to become a reality.

A reality to be felt by people like Utzinger.

Like many Metro students, Utzinger grew tired of his job and decided to go back to college. And not just any college. He chose Metropolitan State College for the variety of classes offered at convenient times.

Like Taking Cookies From a Baby Mag~lli Crumbles Auraria Cable Studio Plan

Rose Jackson News Editor

MSC President Paul Magelli slapped the hands of Auraria's toddling cable station at the beginning of this year as it was reaching for $75,000 in Coors' cookie jar.

Magelli squelched anASTRO (Auraria Student Telecommunications and Radio Organization) proposal to trade off advertising for the money to furnish a TV station by refusing to sign a letter of endorsment sent by the Coors cor­poration. Letters were also sent to UCD and DACC.

"I have no wholesale objection to this project," Magelli said in a meeting of ASTRO members and Auraria administrators on Jan. 3.

"But it's (ASTRO} been (run) too willy-nilly , and it's not going to be willy-nilly any longer."

Magelli defined willy-nillyness as a lack of thrust, clarity and financial commitment.

He said he wanted to see an itemized budget and projections for a year from now. He wanted the Colorado attorney general's office to look over ASTRO's bylaws and he wanted to know which institution on campus would be respon­sible if ASTRO were sued.

During an interview after the Jan. 3 meeting, Magelli said, '1 put all the responsibility in terms of process on my own group. Members of the admini­stration were neglectful in giving the group (ASTRO) the proper kind of guidance .. .I'm not going to name naIIles."

This proposal began when ASTRO members Ben Boltz, Pat Kelly and Joe DeLeo approached Coors two weeks before Christmas with an idea for a trade off-$75,000 for six advertising

spots a day divided equally between radio and video for one year.

Bob Cardenas, Coors special markets manager, said he was enthusiastic about their presentation.

"It was a good proposal and I was happy to forward it with my recom­mendation-provided we had the blessing of the administration," Cardenas said.

"I was under the impression that somebody in the administration had given approval of it. I was quite sur­prised when Pat Kelly (vice president of proposed radio station KRMF) called and said they were having trouble."

The proposal troubled Magelli greatly.

'Tm offended that my name was on a proposal. with 3.5 misspellings and blatant rhetorical errors," Magelli said.

Kelly told Magelli that his word

processor had broken down after he made Cardenas' (Coors') copy of the proposal so the copy given to Magelli was a rough draft.

This reporter found 2.8 misspellings and several mistakes in punctuation and word usage in Magelli' s copy.

Cardenas' copy was the same as Magelli's.

When asked about this discrepancy, Kelly said, "Well, the person I asked and paid (to proofread) obviously didn't do what I asked her to do .. .I didn't proof this before it was sub­mitted."

During the interview after the Jan. 3 meeting, Magelli said, "A ~ar ago I talked to Coors about a proposal and I don't want this to undermine it."

He picked up a copy of his grant proposal, a neatly bound and printed half-inch thick volume, and said, "This is how I want Metro represented." o

ONCAMPUS1 Metro Has Alternatives To Bypassing Semester

Pat Beckman Reporter

When the windows in the Central Classroom closed Wednesday and Metro reached its cap, applicants were still waiting in line but they weren't left standing in the cold. ·

January 22, 1986

Smooth-running registration proves there's no monkeying around at MSC. ·

Some may have felt a draft but for many there were alternatives to going home and forgetting about applying at Metro altogether.

continued from page 1 well before noon, she found herself one of the frustrated 40 or so people who faced closed windows at the end of the line.

Being placed on waiting lists for classes . that weren't closed was one alternative. And many applicants turned up Thursday to do just that, said Ken Curtis, associate vice president for Student Affairs.

'

"It's first come, first serve," Curtis said. And a student on a waiting list will be registered into a class only if a student already registered into that class decides to drop the class.

Curtis said students have a strong chance of getting into a class if they're number one of two on the wait list, but there are no guarantees.

Unlike previous semesters, students won't be absorbed into a class from the wait list.

Curtis also warned that once a student drops a course and the modified schedule is printed, that student has no way of getting back into the class without being placed on the wait list.

Other alternatives for applicants include Metro's Space Available Enrollment (SA VE) Program and Metro's Extended Campus Credit Program.

SA VE, introduced to Metro this spring, is for students who are not seeking a degree and who plan to register for nine or fewer credit hours. For more information on SA VE call 556-3058.

Metro's Extended Campus Credit Program offers courses at Front Range Community College and West Middle School. For more information call 556-3376. D

of not getting in because he was late in registering ..

"I was late to register because I didn't know if my house would sell .or not," the single parent of a seven-year­old daughter said. "I guess I would have to go to C.U. because they don't have a cap."

But, he said, going to Boulder would be v~ry difficult for him financially.

"Standing in line has been my lucky deal all through life," Utzinger said. "Even in the military I remember some people were being sent to some really yucky spot and they drew the line right in front of me."

The luck continued for Utzinger Wednesday. He got five classes and was number one on the waiting list.

Less fortunate was Michelle Briese. Although she was ready to register

As an entering freshman, Briese was required to take pre-assessment tests before signing up for classes. She spent two and a half hours in the orientation/ testing session.

Briese was three people-about five minutes-too late.

"All of the so-called orientation was in this book (the spring schedule)," Briese said. "We sat around while they insulted our intellegence."

Although she was unsure of what she would do this spring, she was certain she still wanted to attend Metro.

"I was accepted to Boulder, but I don't want to go there," Briese said. "I really want~? to go to Metro; I like it much more. D

Freedomo:fC·oII0giatePressMonth

College Should Decide to Publish, Not Editor James L. Kilpatrick

We have been having a noisy flap in Washington this month over a question both perennial and universal: What are the First Amendment rights, if any, of the editor of a student newspaper? Is such an editor entitled to "freedom of the press"?

The issue pops up all the time, not only in colJeges and universities, but at the high school, also. The facts are almost always the same: The young editor either has published, or is about to publish, some editorial or story to which the school administration objects. In one instance this involved nude photographs in a college annual. In another it involved vulgar words in a news story. In a third, it involved some allegations unfavorable to a major benefactor of the university.

The consequences also follow a uniform pattern: The student editor is dis­missed; fellow students rise up in wrath; a cry is raised of "freedom of the press;" and college trustees tear out whatever hair they have left. The incident winds up in court, and more o(ten than not, the student editor prevails.

Our local tempest bas followed these classie lines. At Howard University, the student newspaper is known as The Hilltop. Its editor, the 23-year-old Janice McKnight, persisted in giving prominent coverage to a lawsuit involving the university's attorneys. It appears that a staff attorney filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. He contende<l that Howard's general counsel was discriminating in favor of female employees in pay and promotion.

By any objective yardstick, this was a pretty fair story for a student news­paper. Miss McKnight played it to the hilt, to the great discomfiture of Howard's president, James E. Cheek. Dr. Cheek ordered Miss McKnight to cut it out. She

First Amendment, U.S. Constitution "Congress shall make no law respecting an

establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free Exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."

14th Amendment, U.S. Constitution "No State shall make or enforce any law which shall

abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of its laws."

Freedom of the Campus Student Press Day, and now Month, was born during the 1982 national conventions of College Media Advisers and the Associated Collegiate Press.Jean Otto, national chairman of the First amendment Congress, inaugurated the tradition at the annual awards banquet of the convention by reading a proclamation of its creation.

CMA took the initial steps to found the observance because the advisers believed it would provide opportunities to explain the role and function of the student press on campuses across the nation and to express aI}preciation for the work and manyu achievements of thousands of dedicated student journalists.

January 19 was selected for several reasons as a date for the annual observance. Most student publications staff members would have been back on campus long enough after the Christmas break to plan and participate in an interesting and effective program. There were few other national days or events in January to conflict with the observation.·

An historical consideration was commemoration of the birthday of Robert E. Lee, the first university president in the United States to urge the inclusion of journalism classes in a university curriculum.

Society for Collegiate Journalism and its 130 campus chapters joined in sponsoring and observing the first observation. Since then other organizations have noted the date and Joined in sponsoring it. Latest of these was Society of Professional Journalists, which adopted the resolution.

College Media Advisers joins with SPJ, SCJ and other journalism groups in urging the nation's media to celebrate this important date in American journalism. o

refused. Then, by amazing coincidence, the university's administration discov­ered that Miss McKnight had "falsified" her admissions application back in 1979. She had failed to disclose that previously she had attended Syracuse l' niversity for a year and had left in poor academic standing before enrolJing at Howard.

Seizing upon this heinous offense, Dr. Cheek thereupon expelled her. The students erupted in protest. True to form, the matter went to court, and a judge ordered Miss McKnight reinstated both as a student and as an editor. Moreover, the university was ordered to stop interfering with "her exercise of free press rights guaranteed by the Constitution."

The reason given by the university for the young woman's expulsion is what is known in Latin as phonus bolonus. That reason is unbelievable. She was fired because of her editorial insistence. But there is more to b.e said. My own contention is that Howard's president clearly had the power to remove her as editor. In my own view, the rights of an editor end when the power of his publisher begins. In these student cases the school or college plays the role of publisher. It cannot be otherwise.

Where did Miss McKnight get the right and power to publish whatever she damn well pleases? The answer is, nowhere. The Hilltop is not her paper; she has invested not a dime in its costs of publication. Like ever¥ other student editor, she is here today and gone tomorrow. If an editor falls into actionable libel, a judgment falls not on the editor but on the university. If an editorial so offends a rich alumnus that the alumnus withdraws a large contribution, it is no skin off the editor's back.

I was for 17 years editor of a major newspaper, but I never had any misappre­hension of any "free press rights." If my publisher, in his gentle way, said that we ought to think a while before running one of my fire-eating editorials, that was it. The piece didn't run. It was his paper, not mine. Ninety-nine times out of a hundred, his mature judgment was wiser than mine anyhow.

It is beyond comprehension why student publications should operate under a different rule. If student journalists want unabridged freedom of the press, their course of action is clear: Let them buy their press and move off campus. Until that happens, let them grow up to what life in the real world is all about. D

Freedon1of Collegiate Press Month

Student Editor Capable of Deciding, Not Official John David Reed

Dear Mr. Kilpatrick, -You recently wrote that it was ''beyond my comprehension why student

publications should operate under a different rule" than the commercial press does, vis-a-vis the relationship of the editor and his oublisher. .

Why the public college administrator cannot act as a traditional publisher in his relationship with the student newspaper, however, has been understood well by the federal judiciary and supporters of the college student press for more than a decade. , Constitutionally, the college administrator cannot act as the traditional pub­lisher because his function as censor is proscribed by the First Amendment. The publisher you served for 17 years was a private citizen; the university administra­tor who presumes to be publisher of a student newspaper is a public official. The First Amendment admonition is against governmental interference with press freedom. It applies, therefore, to the university administrator, who is an agency of the state, but not to your publisher, who is not.

Professionally, the college administrator is neither dedicated to nor performs the role of the traditional publisher. Your publisher owned your newspaper­lock, stock, and Linotype machines-or acted for those who did; the investment was his or theirs; he gave it his full professional attention, and earned his livelihood from it; he was trained in the business and, I hope, the profession. The college administrator, however, makes no such commitment of resources and attention; his livelihood does not depend on the success of failure of the student newspaper; he is trained in neither the business nor the profession of journalism.

Ethically, the college administrator does not know the obligations of the traditional publisher, does not accept them and cannot accept them. Your publisher was not the local government for your newspaper's readership,..or should not have been and could pursue, free of conflict of interest, your news­paper's duty to scrutinize the performance of that government on behalf of your readership. His only obligations were to the ethics of journalism and to the well-being of the newspaper. The former are well described by the Society of Professional Journalists, Sigma Delta Chi Code of Ethics: "Journalists must be free of obligation to any interest other than the public's right to know the truth." The college administrator is the head of his school's government; however, his

Campus Newspapers Must Exist Free of Censorship

Paul Magelll

The topic of freedom of the press may be divided into issues of principle and of practice. The principle, enshrined in the First Amendment to the Constitution of the United States, was admirably explored in John Stuart Mill's Essay on Liberty. Succinctly, the argument is thatthe best ideas are likeliest to survive in an environment of free expression and free criticism.

In practice, however, individual presses are subject to limitations, which­paradoxically-operate to promote freedom of the press as a general institution: a newspaper must either be a self-sustaining enterprise or it must be subsidized. In either case, the "ideas" it presents must satisfy someone; either a paying readership, in the case of the enterprise, or the source of the subsidy ~n the other case. The resulting wide variety of editorial policies guarantee that virtually any idea may be aired somewhere, though not everywhere.

Student newspapers are a special case. As a general rule, they belong to the cateogry of subsidized newspapers, since they are almost always distributed free. The source of the subsidy (beyond advertising revenue) is either student fees, institutional funds, or both (institutional facilities, such as office space, often represent an indirect subsidy). Whoever owns or subsidizes a newspaper has a right to determine what sort of newspaper it shall be. Student newspapers, however, are special because of their proximity to the educational process: they ought to be showcases for the ideals of academic freedom and a free press. For this reason, colleges have, in recent decades, increasingly avoided functioning in the role of publishers of their students' newspapers. Even where a measure of subsidy would- in strictly legal terms-give them rights to exercise control, they choose not to exercise those rights.

The major constituency, then, of a student newspaper is the student body: they comprise both the primary readership and the source qf the subsidy. Such a paper's commitment, therefore, ought to be the interests of the students, a commitment it serves simply by dedication to truth. In practical terms this means reporting which is in matters of fact both accurate and adequate, as well as an editorial policy which is open. The latter implies, that while student issues predominate and student-oriented values guide on the editorial page, criticism and rebuttal are welcomed in order that free discussion may promote sQund resolution of student issues and refine the definitions of student values.

A student newspaper that pursues these ideals necessarily enhances the school without any interference from the faculty or administration.

It is my hope that we both support and meet this fundamental goal. D

Paul Magelli is President of Metropolitan State College.

obligation is to that administration; so his duty as administrator conflicts with the duty of the traditional publisher. His allegiance lies elsewhere.

Educationally, the college administrator as traditional publisher is placed in the unethical position of setting for his students a false example. As you correctly wrote, college students should "grow up to what life in the real world is all about." In the real world, the government did not tell you, as editor, what to print or withhold. Your publisher, the private individual, may have, but the govern­ment did not. Nor, in the university community, should students be led by example to believe that in our society we condone censorship of the press by the government. We should demonstrate, instead, what the real world and the First Amendment require: that the college administrator cannot exercise the censor­ship r.ole of the traditional publisher and that as a public official he should indeed encourage a critical, independent, and vociferous student press.

Finally, I think the reasons the college administrator cannot act as the tradi­tional publisher raises two questions for journalists outside the student press to consider. Both questions deal with the erosion of public support for First Amendment protections, a serious problem for student journalists and non­student journalists alike.

First, there is the implication of non-student journalist support for exempting the student press from the First Amendment. You reported that in cases of student press censorship, the editor's "fellow students rise up~ wrath." Actually, students who are not journalists are like anyone who is not a journalist: Unless their ox is being gored, they are little interested whether the First Amendment is being violated. Are the non-student non-journalists in the real world-those who stand aside or even applaud in the face of governmental attempts to control the press-products of universities where they learned by example that censorship of the student press is accepted as the norm rather than abhorred as an aberration?

Second, there is an implication for the non-student press of the student press First Amendment model for the relationship of the editor and publisher. For the student press, the model requires this: Since the publisher is the university's chief administrator and his allegiance lies outside the First Amendment, the First Amendment protection lies with the editor, whose obligation is to the ethics of journalism, who "must be free of obligation" to interests other than the public's "right to know the truth." The publisher-president cannot censor the editor. On campuses where the model is in force, the courts have not dictated it; instead, the institutions have recognized that the model is the correct one. It is a model which ought to be considered by the non-student press, where editors are still trained and still practice the profession of journalism under publishers whose primary allegiance is to the corporation they serve rather than to the newspaper, its ethics, and its readership.

~reedo111o:f Colleglate Press Month

Our Paper's Organization Promotes Learning Katie Lutrey

The Metropolitan is a not for profit organization which provides students of Auraria with experience in journalism, graphic arts and business. The editorial aspect of the newspaper is made up entirely of students. The editor has total control over the content of the newspaper. The editor is hired by the MSC Board of Publications and his only restrictions are to adhere to the Colorado Canons of Journalism. All other staff members are hired by the director with recom­mendations from the editor regarding editorial staff and some support staff.

The paper is also a business in that we generate most of our money through advertising revenue. We do receive some funds from MSC student fees which allows us to pay students who work for us. Currently The Metropolitan employs over 25 students and we have another 5-30 students volunteering their work or who receive class credit rather than pay.

We receive no funding from MSC and we must apply for our space in the student center like any other student club or organization. The director is on contract with MSC to co-ordinate the office of student publications and to keep the program fiscally sound.

Some student newspapers answer to their school's student government or administration. That is not the case with The Metropolitan. We provide student

government space on our opinion page to address the student body. Any student, faculty or staff may also use the opinion page to voice their views to the student population, however, there are space restrictions and we are not always able to print all the letters to the editor.

Because The Metropolitan generates most of its operating revenues, we are more autonomous than many other student newspapers. This means the editor does not have to worry about funds being cut if he prints a story that the administration or student government might not like. All the editor needs to worry about is whether the story is accurate or has news value.

Even as the director, I can not and will not tell the editor what he can or cannot print. There have been cases when the editor has chosen to print a story that was not flattering to one of our advertisers and we have lost some clients this way. But if the story is important to our audience then the loss is worth it. If the story was not worth the loss, that is unfortunate, but beyond my control.

The financial structure of The Metropolitan is conductive to the freedom that the editorial aspects of the paper deserve. This is why The Metropolitan gives valuable experience to students and makes them better equipped for the real world of journalism. D

Possible Censorship by Clubs Opens Our Eyes Pam Price

Legally, the college press is as protected by the First Amendment as the press in what we students near graduation refer to as the "real world." Realistically, the freedom any college newspaper enjoys depends on those who produce it, those who fund it, and those who read it.

The editor of the college newspaper is the key link between the paper's success and freedom. Editors not aware, of their rights when hired soon gain the knowl­edge through the constant war of pleasing the readers. That first few months is vital-most new editors are wooed by each special interest group and lobbyist on campus, and threats from these groups are common when they feel their club or organization has not been properly publicized in the campus news organ.

Threats involving bodily harm are rare, but threats of withdrawal of that organization's support are not. An editor may not worry too much if the Campus Society of ~illboard Watchers threatens to boycott the newspaper, but a threat from a ma1or campus advertiser may be more seriously considered.A one­newspaper campus has an advantage that the Auraria newspapers do not-at Auraria, threats to "go to the other paper" are not uncommon.

Censorship in the college press is often subtle. Occasionally, we'll hear accounts of a college president storminJl; the newspaper's office demanding a

The Met is a. Paper, Not a Newsletter

Robert Davis

Campus newspapers are often looked at as in-house publications. much like newsletters. •

In a sense, that's very descriptive. The newspaper staff deals with faculty and staff the sam? way other students do when they are not working on stories for the paper. That 1s much how a company newsletter is run. . The ~mployees who produce the newsletter at most companies work a regular Job dunng the month and put in extra time to produce an in-house publication on a regular basis.

Many faculty and adminstrators that I've met have the same perception of The Metropolitan.

They feel the purpose of the paper is to promote upcoming events and publicize school achievments.

In fact, !11.e cordial relationships that develop between student journalists and school officials often create very ~fficult situations with the reporter. Typically the reporter finds himself having to report unfavorable news about an administrator or faculty member that the reporter has worked with on many levels.

That is where the college newspaper shatters the image of being an in-house publication. ~e student journalist will report the story and the subject will, usually, be

funous. . The .reason· student~ work long hours on a student paper is to practice Journalism. The commitment means they are dedicated to serving the readership of the newspaper as objective and ethical reporters.

And as long as school officials are paid by state funds they should be considered public officials and should be held accountable for their actions.

Such check-and-balances cannot be performed by a newsletter and the students that pay for the paper shouldn't settle for anything less. o

story not be printed (though nothing of the sQrt has ever happened at Auraria to my knowledge); but more often, the president's secretary will simply "forget" to call and inform the editor of newsworthy press conferences.

Perhaps the biggest headache for any college editor is the local student government, especially when the newspaper relies on that branch for funding. Student politicians learn the principles of the First Amendment along with student editors, and the road to. an equal understandinjl; is often filled with suggestions that become demands. Demands that become threats. An editor must know his or her rights and have the strength to fight back when these rights have been violated.

Of course, First Amendment rights are absolute for no one, and the college newspaper must be as responsible as any other. Libel laws apply to student publications, and lawsuits have been filed and won against defamation in the student press. An editor must balance the interests of the students, the adminis­tration, the student politicians, and the advertisers to produce a newspaper that pleases and informs them all.

Ideally, the editor can concentrate solely on the content of the newspaper and ignore censorious obstacles. Realistically, college editors learn some of the most valuable lessons of life from the moral battles confronted daily.

Because, after all, we're students, aren't we? D

Much has been said and written about Denver theatre lately. The Metropolis has opened. The Lowen­stein continues to get sucked up into the DCPA. Attendance and member­ship are down at the Denver Center Theatre Company. Baierlein can still fill a house.

Among the lesser-known companies are Auraria's two student theater clubs, The MSC Players and UCD's Second Stage. Both clubs are student orga­nized and operated.

Dan Murray is the president of MSC Players. He worked late hours last week with the cast of his current pro­duction, Black Comedy. This is his first directorial adventure. He remains unperturbed at rehearsals when an actor forgets a line; he calmly encour­ages.

Michael Penney worked late hours last week with his cast on Second Stage's production of Bertolt Brecht's A Man's A Man. Any student can join Second Stage, can submit a proposal to direct. As with the MSC Players, the club members select productions from these proposals, budget the produc­tions, stage, set, and rehearse them.

In short, members are responsible for getting the shows together, for put­ting on a play.

An extraordinary opportunity within which to make theatre. The clubs are mostly autonomous; they can do what they want. Within the walls of theater that kind of freedom is priceless. Each club has access to much better than average space, Rooms 271 and 2:78 in the Arts Building. These are not gym­nasium theaters or mid-town barns, but technically impressive space.

Both clubs are responsible for rais­ing funds to supplement allocations from their respective universities. Dan Murray professes disdain for having to concern himself with bake sales to raise revenue, yet operating expenses are a real life problem for any theater.

Second Stage receives even less uni­versity monies, and relies on work­shops, guest speakers, and ticket rev­enues to fill their coffers.

I The MSC Players and Second Stage •are extra-curricular learning environ­! ments. Members, like most Auraria students, must manipulate work and school schedules into scripts that allow for late night rehearsal and weekend

stage work. Their commitment of time and energy are impressive. Their oppor­tunity to create viable theater in the Denver community rests on this hard work, on this commitment to their art. Their ability to gamer support both on the campus and in the community, and their ability to create quality rests with their imagination, with their belief, and love in theatre.

Go see their work. Help them develop themselves. Complain if it is bad, and praise if it is good. D

MetrOStyle Planet Photon invaded by journ

" Metropoli taE Editor's Note:

Photon is a "totally new, futuristic approach to amusement" that tries to be a life size video game and claim& to be a sport. The game complex was opened in December of 1985 and is located at 1640 S. Albilene in Aurora.

The ob;ect of the game is to obtain as many poinU as you can by "disrupting" your opponent, or by striking the enemy's homebase, or by avoiding being disrupted yourself. AU this is done in a carpeted maze-the Photon planet.

The game is a buck cheaper than a movie at one of the new google theaters and lasts longer than a four minute mile. Never the less, Orion Amusement&, Inc., the mother planet, seems to be doing quite well, financially, with their 21st Century fun house.

Whether or not this game is for you, or your pocketbook, is up to your alien self to decide. In any event, you'll en;oy the following three testimonies by experienced Photon Waniors.

Rose Jackson Photon Warrior

Crouched in a dark recess with laser poised, I waited, my heart pounding and sweat trickling under my helmet. I had just shot three laser beams into my enemy's target for 200 points and disrupted three green Photon whlTiors for 30 points.

'Disrupted' is a Photon euphemism for jamming another player's ability to shoot for five seconds.

I was heading for my territory to protect it from invaders, and I was still on the lower level-a vulner­able place to be because of the lack of cover.

The green twilight fog of the doorway parted as a helmeted figure slowly stalked into the corridor. He saw the blinking of my helmet and raised his laser to fire, but before his weapon was level my beam struck his breastplate and the lights on his helmet ceased blinking. Since he couldn't harm me for five seconds, I stepped closer to see my opponent.

He had a red helmet like mine. I had just disrupted my editor, Bob Davis, and lost

30 points. · He chuckled and walked away. Despite a tendency to knock off my own team

members, I did well at Photon. Photon is the cowboys and Indians of the '80s. The

red team (teams are from 3 to 10 players) tries to reach the green team's goal while defending its own goal against the greens and vice versa. Then both teams run around like Rambo-jumping over walls, ducking into tunnels and charging up ramps-and try to shoot more than they are shot.

During the first game, I was 30 points in the hole (that was the median score). The second game I scored 290 points, and the third I scored 140 (I was tired). ·

A computer keeps track of the points and tells you whether your aim is true, you've been shot, or you've shot one of your own people.

The cost of this game is $6.50 for a computer access card, $1.75 for the first game (these are one­time charges) and $3.50 for successive games.

My two comrades in lasers argue that $3.50 a pop for a six-and-a-half-minute game is too much, but I figure everyone needs to conquer the universe at least once in a lifetime.

And, it's an excellent workout. It's better to fight for the good ot' civilization with

the sweat of your brow than to sit and yell at a television screen with a football in your hands.

If you decide to play, here are some helpful hints from the most victorious of The Metropolitan team: control the high ground and keep your back to the wall. D

Editors Kill Each Other

Photon Warrior

In the press packet, they told me I was heading for an alien planet called Aurora-I believed them­prefab cluster homes, spacey-sporting vehicles, strip zoning and Hoover Crafts bombarded my B-210 sensors. I glided into an open rectangle and landed her smoothly between a Galaxy and a bug.

Hesitant, not certain about the atmosphere, I con­sidered just beaming into the Photon Hall, but changed my mind, braved the smog, and walked over to the front door.

Inside I was accosted by an alien named Herb (no shit), who, because I was half an hour early, demanded, "What would you do if you were in my position?" I thought about it. I thought up some good answers too. But realizing that it might be a trap, I just shrugged my shoulders.

Herb bad me sign a release form and then bad another alien make up my Photon passport. I waited. I considered rolling some space leaves to pass the time but noticed a sign that read: NO SMOKING; FLAMMABLE ATMOSPHERE. So I folded my arms, crossed my legs, and leaned into a pillar.

Half an hour later the Photon Hall was buzzing with journalists from distant places. We were all there for the same reason; we were all anxious to kill each other.

But first, the Governors of Photon delivered a short spiel about the battle field, the equipment, and the history of Photon. Then there were some pro­vocative questions like: "Does anyone ever get hurt?" Sneering, I thought to myself, "No, Cubby, but I'm going to disrupt your face real bad."

Robert Davis Photon Warrior

As I stood outside the entrance to the arena, loaded with a powerpack belt and flexing my itchy fingers around the trigger of my phaser, I thought about my old ambulance partner.

Bob Wong is a cop now and he's always loved video games.

During long hours between calls, Wong would find an arcade and play some video games.

Bob has a theory about the games. His theory is this: Invest enough money into one

video game that you can eventually play as long as you wish on one quarter.

It's a sound idea. You can get all the destruction, killing, and space travel at an economical rate; and you can challenge any 12-year-old video-rat to a

·game and dust them. But people who appreciate facing off with-a com­

puter, people like Bob, won't take to this Photon business. The way this game works is you pay $3.50 for six and a half minutes of game time.

So the Wong Theory can't be applied to this game. Because no matter what skills a Photon Warrior posesses, he will only play for six and a half minutes.

Unfair, really, because the game is pretty fun. If you've ever missed the day-long sessions of playing cowboys and Indians or cops and robbers-running around the neighborhood shooting at the kid who stole your matchbox car-then you1l get into this game. At least a couple of times.

But if you like it, look out. Six minutes of zapp-a-roo time may not be worth

the drive. o

Before long the note-taking, picture-taking crowd was transformed into red and green galactic war­riors. Davis was admiring his gun, holding it in his right hand as his left band, so proud, glided over the slick, black barrel. I looked into his eyes and a shiver went up my spine. I scanned his brain waves; I could tell what he was thinking-'Td waste Colson for a good angle on this story." Meanwhile, Jackson was aiming her gun at the back of bis skull. We smiled, sadistically.

Minutes later on the battle field, I found myself totally disoriented (and frequently disrupted). In the maze of passages and cubby holes with the dim lighting, fog, and flashing lights, I felt like a clumsy rat in a woman's closet, trying to find my way around 72 pairs of shoes.

Eventually, I pulled myself together and aimed my gun at an opponent's flashing helmet and fired. It was a strike. He was disrupted, ten points for me. It felt good. I liked it. I wanted more. It was a distant urge welling up inside me. I was engrossed in barbar­ian instincts and 21st century gizmos. Visions of Arlo Guthrie filled my head and I began to chant-"Kill, kill. I want to kill. Kill. I mean blood and gore and veins in my teeth. Kill, kill, kill .... "

Then it was over. Six minutes had felt like half an hour. I shuffled over to the exit. The attendant told me to unplug my power pack. I felt like protesting, but didn't. I felt like a little kid, unwilling to get off the race cars at Kiddy Land.

Dazed, I wandered over to the computer screen and checked the scores. Our team had been mas­sacred. Out of a possible infinity of points I got 60. It was then that I realized, Princess Leah would never love me. D

Cainpus Wild Life: Squirrels & Levise David I. Colson MetroStyle Editor

Keith Levise sits across from me in the student center cafeteria. We're at a table against the window drinking cof­fee. It's sunny. Levise is lighting up a cigarette; I'm trying to figure out the damn tape recorder. He's grinning.

"Let's talk about the wild life," he says.

"The bunnies?" I ask. "Yea, the rabbits, the squirrels, the

birds. I think there's even a couple of rats. Auraria is a thriving place, even the wild life fairs well."

"So,'' thinking to myself, "this is what happens to people when they hang around campus for more than five years."

Levise, 30, has actually been at Auraria since fall of 78, when he was taking some courses at Community College. He was also working for the old CC newspaper, The Metamorpho­sis. Sometime around 1980, Levise transferred to MSC where he is still plugging away at a journalism degree. In the '83-84 and '84-85 academic years, Keith wrote for the The Metropolitan, writing columns and political pieces. He has also worked at the Mercantile and the bookstore.

Presently, Levise manages the con­venience store in the Student Center. Except for his name tag, you might never realize that he's the boss. His style is casual and friendly-open col­lar and smile. "I like people ... that's why I enjoy the job I have now," he says. And then he laughs as he tells me that he got the job on April Fools Day of 1985.

In the sometime future, Levise hopes

to get more involved in politics. He worked for Hart's presidential cam­paign and is thinking of doing so again. "The experience was exciting and it felt good being involved-fulfilling my civic duty." Ultimately, Levise has his eyes on Washington or on some other political home base where be would like to do research for an elected official.

He admits that it will be hard to leave Auraria because " . . . what happens to people who spend years down here is that they master their environment. It's a slow process," be explains. "You don't realize it con­sciously. It works on you unconsciously. Then one day you come down here and suddenly you smile and say, 'This is my home.' And it does feel like home. Then from that point on to con­template leaving makes you sad.''

Looking down at his cigarette Levise roles the grey ash against the edge of a gold colored aluminum tray, around and around until the buring cherry is all that remains.

"Auraria is a magical place," Levise says. "When I'm down here my con­sciousness changes. I feel like I'm part of the world. It makes me feel con­nected to the planet. I tune in to the whole world and it makes me feel more fulfilled."

"There's an international flavor on this campus." Levise points out the diversity in the student body; be praises the faculty who be believes present themselves to the students as equals and as partners in learning. 'Tve never bad a bad teacher down here," he tells me. I tell him that he's been lucky. We laugh.

Levise expects Auraria to become

even more of an international campus. He believes that the -image of Auraria will be changing during the next few years. He cites unpopular policy changes like the new proposed admis­sions requirements and the emergence of MSC's NCAA round ball team as inevitable changes, "There are certain forces at work, not just the force of money ... it's the force of ideas."

Auraria has the same problem as Denver has, it's time to grow up," Levise explains, "but people are hesi­tant. People are afraid of losing what Denver used to be. What Auraria used to be. The cow town image is on its way out and the old Metro is gone."

Despite all the changes that have occurred and that will continue to occur, "Auraria is still a gold mine of oppor­tunity," Levise says with the enthusi­asm of a politician at the podium. Then Levise gets historical and tells me that the first settlement in Denver was called "Auraria" and that white people came there seeking gold. Auraria means gold region, gold place, place of gold or something like that. And what I think is interesting is that here we are 120 years later and the opportunity to strike it rich, not just in a monetary sense, but to succeed, hasn't changed at all. In fact, it's probably greater­Auraria is still a gold mine.

"My analogy for Auraria is that peo­ple strike their claims, they start work­ing their claims, and it pays off in jobs, contacts, relationships ... it's a beauti­ful place. Have you noticed the wild life?"

"No?" I smile. "But I was wondering about those beads." Levise is wearing a string of tiny beads around his neck. They are green, red, yellow, orange, and blue.

He grins. "It's a rainbow chain. It reminds me of the 60's," he says. "That's why I like it. The cultural revo­lution is still going on. Every positive change in society can be traced back to the '60s: ecology, conservation, hwnan rights, civil rights. Everything goes back to the '60s and the '60s will con­tinue to shape the future.''

"How do you tie the '60s into Aura­ria,'' I ask as the tape recorder clicks off.

Levise exhales a stream of smoke

Who can HELP me

Keith Levise that swirls around in the sunlight. Then I start to scribble-"The '60s had to do with consciousness and the expansion of consciousness; that's why people are here at Auraria-because they want to grow. There are not the outward signs of revolution but inside there is still the expansion of people's consciousness."

Ten Graphs Applaud a Perfect Play David I. Colson MetroStyle Editor

When you laugh, and fear, and hope; 4 and when your eyes moisten and it's

hard to swallow because of the lump in your throat; and when all you want to do is cry, and cry, then you know that you have experienced an exceptional work of art.

Mark Harelik's play, "The Immi­grant: A Hamilton County Album," is such a piece-exceptional. The-cast of four: Mark Harelik as Haskell Harelik (his grandfather in real life), Andrienne Thompson as Leah Harelik, Ann Buil­bert as Ima Perry, and Guy Raymond as Milton Perry move their audience to a tearful standing ovation.

The various state settings, the music, and the accompanying presentation of Harelik family slides compliment the drama beautifully.

This original Denver Center for the ~ Performing Arts production will be

The play is about a young Jewish man who immigrates to Texas from Russia in 1909. Initially, Haskell Hare-

With the help of Milton and Ima Perry, who become the Harelik's life-long friends, the banana business expands into a horse drawn cart fruit and vegetable business. And before long, Haskell opens a store" ... full of goods with a mortgage-a real American business." At this same time, Haskell has saved enough money to send for his Russian wife, Leah. Together they raise a f.~mily, " . .. more unbaptized Texans.

"The Immigrant" is a story about Americans and perhaps about all peo­ple who have found themselves in a strange land but who, in time, have found themselves cherishing the place and the people they once feared. It is a story about opening doors; "Our doors must be open for the angels to come in," Leah Harelik said.

"The Immigrant" is a story about feelings, about birth and death, about parents and children; "What am I here for if not for my children?" young Haskell asks. At the birth of each child, three boys, Haskell plants a tree. A tra­dition, he says, "Plant a tree when

"Pleasuring Ground" is written by Denver playwrite Frank X. Hogan. It is mostly a series of loosely connected thematic explorations. There are some laughs, and some fine performances by members of the DCTC's repertory company, but the play suffers from

wandering direction and at times aim­less script.

Peter Hackett last directed "The Petrified Forest," a production of tight and artistic weave. Hackett leaves too many frayed ends and loose threads in "Pleasuring Ground."

Hogan's script is intent on exploring a number of facets which develop when a group of men from Butte, Montana set out in pursuit of riches and adventure. Greed and the inex­perience of the explorers create problems that, in the end, are not noteworthy enough to hold our interest.

Michael Winters plays Truman Everts, a man driven to the untamed wilds of Yellowstone in search of his deceased wife. With the help of pom­pous Lt. Gustavus Doane, played by Jack Casperson, Everts is successful in crossing over into the spirit world. There he finds his wife who, dead and happy in eternal peace, refuses to accompany him back to the land of the living.

The play means to suggest the value of untamed wilderness, means to sug­gest that man should not fight his nature. In leaving the spirit of Louise Everts at peace in the wilderness, the play· means to suggest that man can coexist with nature only to the extent that he respects and understands nature. The play suggests all of these thematic

. heavies by way of didactic soliloquies, which is lazy theater.

The threads for an interesting and thoughtful play are all here, but they are woven with too much emphasis on telling us what to see, rather than show­ing us what to believe. D

someone's born; when someone dies, (he pauses and laughs) someone plants a tree."

"The Immigrant" is a story about nostalgia. As Milton Perry puts it, "There is nothing good about the good olde days except that we lived in the arms of our family."

"The Immigrant" is a story about sore feet, aching backs, broken porch

steps, blintzes, traditions, religions, world wars, and the hidden depth in small talk.

In "The Immigrant' A Hamilton County Album," Mark Harelik has written more than a play. He has planted an ancient redwood. He has planted a mighty oak. He has planted a fruitful fig tree. He has remembered who he is. D

SPORTS Roadrunners Catching Momentum At Home Brad Dunevitz Asst' Sports Editor

The MSC men's basketball team won two and lost two during the win­ter break, but a big victory against Eastern Montana made the break all the more worthwhile.

The two victories improved the team's record to 6-6.

The Roadrunners lost to the Univer­sity of Northern Arizona in Flagstaff, 73-56, but the game was much closer than the score. UNA is a Division I school and had its hands foll against MSC.

"Our guys came out pretty fired up. We didn't play great but we played hard," coach Bob Hull said. "We played real good defense and we rebounded with them."

At halftime, MSC was down two points. With two minutes gone in the second half, Hull questioned an offi­cial's call and was ejected.

"It was a very physical game and they started calling some real ticky­tacky fouls on us," Hull said. But that wasn't the story to the game.

"With nine minutes to go we were right in the ballgame but then we wore down a little bit," Hull said. "We played hard until the last six minutes."

Metro was led by Ambrose Slaughter-10 points, eight rebounds; Rich Grosz-11 points, six rebounds; Thomas Murphy-14points and Craig Hyman-12 rebounds.

The team came back home to host the University of Southern Colorado and lost 59-56. Metro shot only 38 per­cent from the field and 55 percent at the free throw line but Hull said the game was decided early.

"Our inability to play hard and to rebound in the first seven or eight minutes of the ballgame cost us the game," he said.

Grosz led Metro with 15 points and eight rebounds. "Rich has been a very consistent player for us," Hull said. '1Ie's rebounding; he's been up to eight, 10, 12 rebounds a game. He's playing real good defense for us and he's our best rebounder."

Rebounding was the key in the vic­tory over Westmar (Iowa). Metro dominated the boards 54-24, and, according to Hull, when you beat a team by 30 on the boards, you're going to win the ballgame.

"We didn't play that well," Hull said. "But the thing that brought us through that ballgame was our rebounding. The guys went out and they estab­lished themselves on the boards early."

Grosz and Slaughter each had 10 rebounds for the Roadrunners followed by Craig Hyman with eight. Steve Crigler contributed six rebounds, 12 points and Murphy chipped in 14 points. ,

Metro's third straight home game and last game during the break was against Eastern Montana, the third­ranked team in the country in Division II. -

Eastern Montana brought a 13-1 record to Denver, losing only to Mon-

tana of Division I. Hull said the key to winning was rebounding, shooting and defense. _

He was right. Metro quickly jumped out to a 22-6 lead and never looked back, winning 60-56. It was a big win for MSC and it evened its record at 6-6. The team shot 49 percent from the field and solid defense held Eastern Montana to just 37 percent.

Despite Metro's early lead, the game turned into a nailbiter at the end. MSC clung to a 53-51 lead with 2:25 left, and

· held on to beat what Hull called a team that is good enough to be Division I.

"The kids played hard at the end and didn't give up," Hull said. "They showed courage. They hung in well and hit free throws at the encl"

The back to back victories improved the Roadrunner's home record to 5-1. The team plays host four more times before embar~ing on a seven-game roadtrip.

Through the remainder of the home­stand, Hull would like to establish momentum for the road. "I would like to smooth out our offense and improve our shooting a little bit and give our guys confidence for the road," he said.

AFSA Loses to Metro, But Wins

Brad Dunevltz Asst' Sports Editor

'

Instead of fighting losing streaks and foul trouble, this team fights for more

· important issues-lives. The MSC men's basketball team

hosted an exhibition game during the winter break~ gainst Athlete's Fighting Substance Abuse, based in Des Moines, Iowa. .

AFSA was founded in 1984 as a non­profit organi.2 ation using athletes and athletics to sp1 ead their message on the dangers of drug and alcohol use and abuse. I

AFSA foc~es its efforts on dis­couraging ~e preventing substance abuse with s~ecial emphasis on child­ren and youn ·adults.

The team has four former hoop players from Iowa State, two from Northwestern and one each from Western Illin9is and Luther College. None of the players have any history of drug or drinkir,g problems and all have full-time jobs

MSC beat AFSA 92-82 in double overtime. Thpmas Murphy scored 24 points, Steve I Nash, .16 and Ambrose Slaughter, 15., Rich Grosz was high in rebounds wit~ 12, followed by Slaugh­ter's eight. ~aig. Hyman and Fred Burgess had s ven apiece. . Metro shot 6 percent from the field

and held AFS1\. to just 32 percent. Although it lost the basketball game, AFSA is winning the fight against drug and alcohol abuse. D

W oillen Reverse Fortunes During Current Holllestand

Scott Moore Sports Editor

After watching nine straight games slip through their fingers to start the season, the MSC women's basketball team has turned its hopes around, winning three out of their last five.

Starting the season with two of their best players ineligible, the women played erratically as they searched for the winning formula.

Spurred by the return of Heidi Keyes and Catherine Klazura after Christmas, Metro blew out Dordt College (Iowa), 75-57. Metro led from start to finish.

"We ran them into the ground," coach Cindy Guthals said. "They were' sucking air. My players were seeing the light at the end of the tunnel for the first time." · .

After a heartbreaking loss to the University of Northern Colorado, the Roadrunners rebounded against Colo­rado School of Mines. Mines, Metro's lone victim a year ago, stumbled, losing 76-72 after being up by 16 points.

. "We were down by 16 and the kids said 'hey, this is Mines and we beat them last year,' and they did it," Guthals said.

Keyes, a transfer from the University of Nebraska, contributed 28 points and 15 rebounds to pave the way.

Freshman Lisa Rains chipped in with 19 points and Klazura scored 12.

The Roadrunners kept a full head of steam going into its game against Chadron State (Neb.), whipping them 70-58.

Keyes led the team once again, pouring in 20 points and pulling down nine boards. Rains also hit double figures with 14 points.

What had cause the turnaround for Metro?

"Consistency was the main reason," Guthals threw in. "Being able to start the same five people since Eastern Montana. Once we could get that solid five, I knew things would change."

The University of Alaska (Anchor­age) invaded the Roadrunners turf last Monday and came away with a 72-55 win. The score was tied 30-30 at half, but Anchorage outscrapped Metro in the second half and outscored them 42-25.

Although it has taken a little while, Guthals said the team is starting to come around. "We weren't sure what it took to win," Guthals said of the early season blues. "And once we did they (the team) didn't get excited about it. It was telling me I needed to change things defensively." Keyes' and Klazura's defense has made the difference. D

SPORTS More Studies Headed Our Way

Tangled W eh (MSC Athletics) Needs Divine Help Robert Smith Reporter

Is track out as an intercollegiate sport here? Is Metro going to become the Georgetown of the West?

Maybe, and soon, maybe, but not soon; probably not, but nearly.

If that leaves you confused, you're not alone. The future of MSC's athletic program is a tangled web, and you may be in the center.

MSC' s athletic department recently moved its office into the Rectory, next to St. Cajetan's.

Dick Fuerborn, campus recreation director, said that was appropriate: "They're looking for some divine inter­vention."

Instead of divine help, the atfiietic program has gotten ~tudies and recom­mendations-and more is coming.

No decision has been made on reor­ganizing the program, but MSC Presi­dent Paul Magelli said he has set a goal of April 1, 1986 for settling the situah<in.

Recommendations that would cut track, gymnastics and cross country came from the Commission on Inter­collegiate Athletics. In its Sept. 18 report to Magelli, the commission

recommended dropping these sports from the intercollegiate program. The report said they were either too costly, or alternatives are available for the athletes.

The commission recommended sup­port for five men's sports-basketball, soccer, baseball, swimming, and ten­nis-and for six women's sports­volleyball, basketball, soccer, softball,

, swimming and tennis. Athletic Director Bill Helman said

that track falls into the too-expensive category.

"We've had individual All-Ameri­cans, but the team never had the depth to do well. To build a quality track program would be as expensive as the biggest sports (basketball and foot­ball)," he said.

The commission recommended that :\1etro commit to NCAA Division II status, but left open the possibility of going to Division I in the future.

Magelli, in a telephone interview, emphasized that he won't make a com­mittment to Division I status.

"That is a decision for some other president and some other board to make," he said.

Competing on a Division I level may be only a longshot-but that longshot

may save cross-country. The NCAA requires Division I

schools to field six men's and six women's teams; for Division II, the numbers are four and four, Helman said.

"We may keep cross-country because it wouldn't make sense to drop it for a few years and then bring it back," he said.

Division II or Division I, reorganiza­tion of MSC' s athletic program will require money.

Dr. Adolph Grundman, chairman of the intercollegiate commission, told the Student Fees Task Force that the Division II program would cost about $600,000, $200,000 more than the cur­rent program costs.

Grundman told the task force that a fee increase of $10 per student would more than cover extra cost. Dr. Roberta Smilnak challenged that statement.

Smilnak, MSC associate vice presi­dent for Student Affairs and chairman of the task force, pointed out that fees are prorated by credit hours attemp­ted, and that a $10 increase would not raise the projected amount.

Interviewed later, Smilnak said the amount of money generated by stu­dent fees depends on the types of stu-

dents enrolled. Because of the prorat­ing, the more full-time students-the less money will be collected, she said.

Full- or part-time, students will play a large role in deciding the future of MSC's athletic program, Magelli said.

"If the Student Fees Task Force proposes increases in student fees, or changes in the structure, then I expect they will conduct a student referen­dum on the proposals," he said. "The students will have a crucial say in any program changes."

Student fees are the central issue. Full-time MSC students now pay $98 per academic year in fees. About $9 of that goes to intercollegiate athletics.

The task force is looking at the whole student-fee structure. Magelli told the members that their job is to look at what MSC needs now and what it will need in five years.

That includes athletics and campus recreation. It also includes the health center, legal services, the flight team, The Metropolitan and many other stu­dent activities.

Fuerborn summed up the problem. "If students want these excellent

programs. they'll have to pay for them," he said. D

Bears Shuffle Patsies In Bowl Scott Moore Sports Editor

Basking in the aftermath of a Z7-7 trouncing of the New England Patriots

~~ in Super Bowl XX, outspoken Chicago .

•

Bears quarterback Jim McMahon had this to say about the opposition.

"The Pats(ies) couldn't have found their way out of a cardboard box today. The Super Bowl Shuffle rained all over the Patsies' face."

In the end, though, it was the Mon-sters of the Midway that did the job, limiting the Patsies to a mere 183 yards total offense. Such prominant Patsies as Craig James, Irving Fryer, and Tony Eason disappeared when the money

,, was on the line. "I guess y9u could call it a good ol'

fashioned butt kicking," snarled Mike Singletary, who constantly stuffed Patsies drives all day.

But the main cog· was Walter Pay­ton, voted the games niost valuable player. His 162 yards rushing and two touchdowns were too much for the Patsies to overcome.

In the second quarter with Chicago up 7 -0 on a 11 yard fumble recovery for a touchdown by Richard Dent,

io Payton scampered 37 yards for a back­breaking touchdown that sent the Bears on their way.

After New England started the second half with their only scoring drive of the lopsided affair, the defen­sive line of the Bears took control.

Mosi Tatupu scored on a two yard plunge over All-Pro guard John Han­nah, then all the offense the Patsies could muster the rest of the way was a

pathetic 68 yards. "My players were prepared,"

explained Patsies coach Raymond Berry, "but all the credit for our offen­sive woes would have to go to the Bears defense. They were flat out­standing." · Patsies' quarterback Tony Easoq, · echoed Berry's thoughts saying "Our offensive line played well and I was still forced to rush my passes all day. It seemed like everything we tried, they (Bears] were waiting in the wings."

The defensive line of the Bears, led by the efforts of William "The Refrig· erator" Perry and Dent, accumulated six sacks on the day and two pass deflections. Also to their credit was the fumble recovery by Dent and another

by Steve McMichael, which led to Pay­tons' second jaunt, a six yard sweep around right end.

The final points for Chicago came courtesy of two Kevin Butler field goals.

Was Mike Ditka, coach of the Bears, pleased with the victory?

"Hell yes," he stammered. "But I'll tell you what would have been really satisfying and that's getting Miami in here. Then I would have told my play­ers to play hard. A dress couldn't have saved Marino today because we have no mercy for laudmouthed girlies."

Asked if that statement meant that the Bears had had blood with the fish

The Metropolitan Page 17

from Miami, Ditka gave a look of disbelief.

"Did you .figure that out by your­selves or was that a rumor," he inter­rupted, cigar swaying disgustingly in his mouth. "Now why don't you guys leave us alone so we can party."

In reality, the only real party going on is inside the head of the Bears, who may have already started. But then who wouldn't when the Patsies are on the other side of the line of scrimmage.

Take Chicago and give the points, you can only get richer ... like I will be after this Sunday.
