Republicans rally at airport

balloons, bands and cold ti/et

by Bob Haas

It was a pleasure to stand when Ronald Reagan walked into the room.

All cynical observation aside, there is something quite right about the President of the United States.

All of the republican party loyalists who gathered Monday morning in a Continental Airlines' hanger to lunch with the President would likely agree.

The Ken Kramer/ Ron Reagan /Republican party feel good gathering made up in good cheer what it lacked in real style.

No real style? - It's difficult to maintain an ade­

quate cocktail small talk demeanor on · the concrete floors and in the echo vaulted corrigated ceiling of a bar­

racks-like airplane hanger. - There is something uncomfortably

wrong with the American political machine - the balloons and band music, the delegate convention men­tality, a relinquishing of so much individuality for the sake of such single minded conformity.

It is that single minded conformity which would like to elect Ken Kramer to the United States Senate. And candidate Kramer may not have understood that Monday morning he was only a prop. The gathering, the balloons and the excitement were not' for him, not for the success of his election.

Rather, the gathering was a cele­bration of the republican party, and of the election of a republican to the senate chambers. Apparently, any republican would do.

"We must elect senators who will vote for America's future," Reagan said. "Vote for Ken Kramer so we can have a republican senate that I can work with for these next two and a half years."

Not to suggest that Ronald Reagan

does not think Ken Kramer a good aud able man, and not to say that Ken Kramer is neither.

But Monday morning Ken Kramer was a symbol, the symbol of one of us.

One of us Monday morning was a republican gathered at a republican

gala decorated with republican balloons and crepe stringers, listening to republican children's singing groups singing republican songs. The little flags sticking out of so many pressed and polished three-piece republican suits were republjcan flags, and the two well stocked bars served republi­can scotch.

And ·no one suggested that the gathering was anything but a party pep rally. Nor is it suggested that the republican's primary opposition carries on with any greater decorum. (Recall the Fritz and Gerry show of 1984.)

If there is something uncomforting about all this hoopla, there is also something quite right about it. There is something of innocent naivete in the bubbling embracement of the party's leader, a leader full of real charm and enjoyable wit. And if there is something of innocent naivete about plunking

~ down $500.00 for cold filet and a nut . cookie, there is . something of genuine faith in a common cause there, too. D

On October 31, 1880, the same great citizens of Denver who brought us the Sand Creek massacre burned Hop Alley - a once thriving Chinese community - to the ground. In doing so, they deprived future citi­zens of Denver the rich cultural experience an ethnic nieghborhood can bring.

Sean-Michael Gilmore

I was turned on to Hop Alley a few years ago by my friend and Zen mas­ter, Steve Eriksson. Steve has appointed himself my personal direc­tor of sociology (he's got a masters from UCD and the guy thinks he knows everthing) . We spent an after­noon searching the alley between Blake and Wazee Steets from 16th to

20th for remnants of Denver's Chinatown.

Finding few, it was left to our imag­ination to consider what it would be like had the nieghborhood been left alone to grow into a cultural center like the great Chinatowns of New York and San Fransisco.

An ethnic community contributes to a city in many rich and varied ways, just as the constant influx of immi­grants has contributed to the great­ness of this country.

That may be contrary to popular conservative isolationism but it's my opinion.

So when Steve called me the other day to say he was taking me to lunch at the New Saigon restaurant on south Federal so I could check out the growing Vietnamese community

• there, all I could say was "Great, lets do it".

But inside I had mixed feelings. Images and memory flashes. Illumi­nation rounds ala Michael Herr going off in my head.

I wasn't sure I was ready for the New Saigon.

I wasn't sure I had gotten over the old Saigon yet.

I remember the very last time I had seen large groups of Vietnamese people. After the fall of Saigon in _ April of 1975 my Squadron /

returned to our facilities on Guam. The tent city that had been set up for refugees quickly filled and the over­flow were temporarily billeted in our hangers.

The hangers were so crowded we .­couldn't get the aircraft in to do maintenance - we were left with nothing to do.

I spent time walking among the refugees looking in the faces of the old men and the mama-sans, the few young men and the many young women and children.

What was I looking for? Maybe an understanding of these people rd never achieved in their country. I thought I could grasp how it felt, after a lifetime of war, to be uprooted from your home and coun­try. I looked for hope and despair, for fear and sorrow. In my youth I looked and did not see.

And then they were gone. We cleaned out the hangers of their •

trash and forgotten belongings. A

quaility food and providing terrific service. and right now. we're looking for outstanding team players to join us.

rolled up sleeping mat I hac;l no use for, but not willing to let go of, kept for many years.

I would find out years later that among those Vietnamese was a women - Van-Nguyen - who would later bring her family to Denver and open a restaurant she would call New Saigon. The New Saigon looks like any small cafe. Booths and tables with plastic covers. Corkbbard and mirror tiles on the walls. On the back wall is a carved wooden clock in the shape of Viet­nam. Pop Vietnamese music on the sound system. Steve and I ordered French 33, a great Gallic beer and we both tried the Mi Xao Don-Mi Xao Mem, a mixture of sauteed vegeta­bles, chicken, beef and shrimp over rice noodles. It was excellant (New Saigon won W estword' s best of Denver award in 1985). For dessert we had Ca Phe Sua, a Veitnamese espresso with a sweet milk syrup.

I talked with Hang-Vu the daugh­ter of the owner. She told me her family had left Vietnam after the fall of Saigon and had spent time in a refugee camp in the Phillipines before being moved to Guam. After several months they were shipped to Camp Pendleton in southern Califor­nia for processing. They found a sponsor in Denver and the family opened the New Saigon seven years ago.

She said with the many new Viet­namese restaurants opening, the New Saigon had "fewer Vietnamese cus­tomers but more Americans".

Hang-Vu said she liked living in Denver, but the winters were awfully cold - something I agreed with.

During lunch the restaurant had been filled with Vietnamese people and suprisingly I had been filled with an oddly comfortable feeling. Not the sweet nostalgic feeling of coming home but more the feeling of putting on a fovorite shirt you haven'.t worn in a long time.

An easy feeling. Of coarse there was no possibility

of morter rounds dropping in for lunch or SAMs to snatch me out of the sky. No V.C. satchel charges. through the plate glass window.

Just people eating lunch. After­wards Steve and I went a few blocks south on Federal to check out the oriental buisness community that covers both sides of the street for about a quarter of a mile.

While Steve looked around I talked to N ghia Luong, the owner of the Thai Binh Supermarket. Mr. Luong told me the community had grown from four stores in 1980 to 22 new buisnesses including several Vietna­mese and Thai supermarkets and two video stores that feature movies in Vietnamese and other Asian languages.

"Most of the stores are Vietna­mese," said Mr. Luong "but because the foods are so similar many Cam­bodians, Thais and Laotians shop here."

Mr. Luong estimates a community of thirteen thousand South East Asians use the buisness center. Buis­ness is so good, he said, that most of the stores will soon be moving to a new center under construction at Alameda and Federal.

Mr. Luong said the area merchants look out for each other. In fact, he

Eritrean Atrocity

by Bob Haas

The newspaper is full of horror these days. Well documented stories of mass killings gain our sympathy for the vic­tims; child molesters are always des­pised. These localized and specific horrors are easy targets for our revul­sion. We would never kill postal employees, we would never molest a child.

Paging through the newspaper, we consider the importance of remember­ing the genocide of the Holocaust, lest it might happen again. How could any civilized society have allowed such an horror to take place? How could so many people have done nothing to prevent such an atrocity?

While we remember historical Ger­many, we cannot quite remember our reaction to Pol Pot's genocide in Cam­bodia. Certainly we must have had a reaction, but it has slipped somewhere between pouring a fresh cup of morn­ing coffee and turning the page.

We abhor the memory of the geno­cide committed against the Native Americans, and we turn the newspaper page and see a bewildered boy with a bandaged stump for an arm. Genocide has been successfully waged against

this Afghani child. The Soviet army has schemed against him, has scattered toys for him to find. They are cleverly booby-trapped toys, toys made to blow off the hands and arms of small children.

But Afghanistan is so far away, and the politics involved so complicated, and besides we haven't read the fun­nies yet. We turn the page.

But turning the page on atrocities doesn't make them go away.

Curiously, present horrors seem more distant than past ones. Present horrors are, afterall, halfway around the world. Past horrors are part of our history, a history that insulates us, gives us the freedom to feel sure that we would have done something had we been there.

famine ravaged country. His photo­graphs tum a present atrocity into a close and immediate reality.

What he found was a courageous and highly organized people fighting for independence from the Ethiopian government, a government which uses starvation as a weapon of war.

The Ethiopians encourage the out­side world to believe that the distur­bance in its northern province is merely civil unrest perpetrated by a few zealous rebels. Visiting Eritrean Relief Committee executive director Tesfa A. Seyoum tells a different story.

"It is painfully obvious that the Ethi­opian government plans to starve the Eritreans into submission," Seyoum said recently at the photography exhibit' s opening at the Auraria Library.

"The only way to get the aid to Eri­trea is through Sudan," he said, " and that must be done at night because of the bombings."

The bombings are carried out with Soviet supplied military hardware. In fact, both the Et}liopian army and the Eritreans are armed by the Soviets.

"Ninety-percent of the armaments used by the Eritreans are captured weapons," Seyoum said. "And actu­ally, the bombings are not the worst. When the Migs (jet fighters} fly over, they make a terrible sound. The sound will break your eardrums. The jets fly

over hospitals and orphanages. The sound they make terrorizes the child­ren. Our children have no home to grow up in. "Seyoum pauses. "This is sad," he says.

Sad indeed. As in Afghanistan, the survival of the children in Eritrea will one day be the history of their country.

The drought in Eritrea is a natural catastrophe. The outpouring of aid from so many countries is the required membership dues in the community of civilized societies.

The famine in Eritrea is a human atrocity, created in large part by the political game playing of a repressive regime. This atrocity spits in the face of civilized societies.

We are easily outraged at the obs­cene indecency of Adolf Hitler. We willingly believe that had we been there, we would have done something. Do something. Do what?

The Rocky Mountain News said this in a recent editorial: ... Americans shouUI prepare themselves for more pictures of skeletal, dying Africans. This time they should recog­nize that neither nature nor W estem colonialism is to blame. And that no matter how much they want to help, that option may not be available.

Perhaps not. But see the photos, and move mind and spirit close to the story, before the atrocity becomes history. o

Construction destroys buried history by Anne Bentzlin-Smith

As Auraria professors strive to stim­ulate the minds of the students that fill their classrooms, the very buildings in which they teach have indefinitely sealed part of Denver's early history underground.

MSC cultural anthropologist Ken Keller thinks the area is rich in artifacts that could provide valuable infor­mation regarding Colorado's early history and pre-history (before written history).

But as Keller puts it, "Here we go, once again."

The construction of the UCD Re­placement Building is in full swing and any areas worthy of archaeological study have since been destroyed.

Long before many of the campus buildings were built, Keller recalls, "pot hunters" could be seen from Speer Boulevard, digging for lead-

glass bottles and pottery to sell. They dug up and sold anything they could find and left the area looking like a war zone, he said.

"I guess I get a little frustrated. We are in a place where it's culturally, pre­historically and historically fairly rich, not in the same way as Mesa Verde, but with material that is there for interpretation and understanding," Keller said. "People need to be made aware that once it's (an artifact) dug up, it's gone."

The land adjacent to Cherry Creek and. the Platte River was used by various tribes of Indians before the city of Auraria was founded. The city of Auraria was founded before Denver but the two towns later merged.

In the early 1800' s, the area was inhabited by minorities and was a working class neighborhood, Keller said.

"Those are the people nothing was continued on page 14

recruiting of local students. He hopes that Metro will be able to get the best from the Denver area. The gray-haired guy sitting on the

bench next to Bob Hull this year won't be a blue-chip recruit from Brooklyn or a junior-college transfer from Texas.

Instead, it will be Joe Strain, the coach of last year's Colorado high school basketball champions and a man with 23 years of coaching experience.

Strain, 55, will be the new assistant basketball coach and an athletics department administrative assistant. Strain coached 15 years at George Washington High School, leading the Patriots to an overall record of 165-30, including six conference and two state titles.

One of the reasons he Jef t CW for Metro is the success of MSC's basket­ball program.

HuH said he feels extremely fortunate to have a coach with Strain's creden­tials and especially at a bargain price.

"I wanted to get a coach with experi­ence and normally to do that you have to pay a lot," Hull said. "Joe seemed excited and since he was retiring he'll get his pension (from Denver Public Schools), so the salary he required was not as much as others."

Hull said Strain' s 15 years experience counseling high school students also impressed him.

"Joe will help counsel the players on academics and help free me for more fundraising," Hull said.

Strain will also scout the teams on Metro's schedule and do a lot of the

"Mostly, though, it's a lot of paper­work," Strain said.

Strain will not be the only former Patriot on the Roadrunner squad. Fresh­man forward Shun Tillman was recru­ited out of CW by Hull after leading the Patriots to the state championship.

'Tm glad he followed me to Metro," Tillman said with a laugh, "he's a good coach."

Strain, a Denver native, played basketball "at South High School and later at Phillips University in Enid, OK. He now resides in southeast Denver with his wife, Jeanette. They have three children and three grandchild­ren, all of whom, he says, Jove sports.

His son, Joe, played pro baseball with the San Francisco Giants in the late 70s. D

Auraria Community Relations

{ Nobody.Hungry? by Carol Buck

A ticket-selling contest for Metro's ;<. 21st birthday party is underway - or is

supposed to be. The Student Activities office

designed the ticket-selling contest to promote student involvement in the . Sept. 27 birthday celebration.

But the contest still has no student " contestants.

"Some interest has been expressed, but so farnobody's picked up tickets," Yolanda Ortega, director of Student Activities, said.

Mike Majeres, coordinator for Clubs , and Campus-wide Programming, said

he notified MSC clubs and organiza­tions of the contest by memo August 11.

Any campus organization is eligible to enter this intense competition. The group which sells the most tickets over

• 50 will win certificates for 21 large Domino's pizzas. Second prize is 12 Celestial Seasonings tea shirts.

The MSC Alumni Association has already sold approximately 50 tickets, Ann Dickerson of Public Relations said. .

~ Ortega said she hoped that discus-sion of the contest at last Wednesday's

All Club's Day would encourage the students' competitive spirits and gen­erate ticket-selling contestants.

Ticket sales will not only benefit competing clubs and organizations, theyj will benefit students as well.

All proceeds from the event will go to a new emergency student loan fund, the criteria for which has not yet been established, Dr. Gwen Thomas, assist­ant vice president of institutional adv~ncement, said.

The fund will be administered by the MSC Foundation, which Thomas called the "fund-raising arm of the college."

This means that the purchase of one $5 ticket ($10 for non-students) will buy much more than an evening of unlimited food, drink and dance.

That ticket will also provide student benefits.

Until campus organizations join the contest, tickets can be purchased thr~ugh Student Activities, Public Relations, Institutional Advancement, all ~atatix outlets and the Ticket Bu~. A ticket booth has been opened in the Student Center, cafeteria level, Dick­erson said.

Boyles bags biggies for Illedia class speakers

by Frederick G. Ripley

Aside from being a popular radio personality at KNUS and host of a prime-time cable television show, Peter Boyles will be appearing live in front of a journalism class every Tuesday and Thursday, from 2:00 to 3:15 p.m.

West Classroom 254 has never seen the likes of the guest-speaker list Boyles has compiled for the course he created, How Media Shapes Culture. Music promoter Barry Fey, of Feyline Enterprises, was the first to speak to the rather awestruck class September 4.

Fey, who has filled Mile High Sta­dium for rock concerts and is respon­sible for such major events as Red Rocks Summer of Stars, talked to the

Ther versatile Peter Boyles gazes at the Pana­ma Canal last summer as a media representative on a fact-finding tour of the Colorado National Guard's involvement in Central America.

small group as though they were a cir­cle of his closest friends.

He fielded questions on the music industry and how media has played a part in shaping the industry, conclud­ing that "the media is no one's friend but their own."

Because of his high visibility, Boyles has access to many public figures and media personalities like himself.

For instance, Channel 4' s Bob Palmer and Ron Zappolo, are scheduled speakers, as well as Denver Post columnist Woody Paige.

Joe 'Louis' Barrow, son of the late heavyweight boxing champion Joe Louis, will speak about the media's impact on his father. The book, CHAMPION Joe Louis-Black Hero in White America, by Chris Mead, is required reading for Boyles' course.

"It promises to be an interesting semester with some real surprises in store," Boyles, a 1973 MSC graduate, said. "People may not agree with my views or those of the guest speakers, but faced with a challenge, the normal reaction is to think and ask questions."

With a degree in history, Boyles came into journalism and later broad­casting by answering an American Automobile Association ad for writers.

"The only stipulation was that I cut my hair," he said. "I needed a job and snipping off some hair sure beat starv­ing to death."

Boyles is considered by some to be a controversial figure because of his support of the military and involve­ment in things like The Committee For a Free Afghanistan, "an issue he feels strongly about," Greg Pearson, direc­tor of the journalism department, said of his former student.

"Sure, there's been some disgrun· tlement expressed over the hiring of Peter, but nothing that would preclude

me from doing.so," Pearson said. Omnibus courses like this one are

taught periodically when the teacher has expertise in a certairi area, Pearson said. Metro alumni that have preceded Boyles in teaching such classes are Joe Fuentas, then with the Rocky Moun­tain News and presently working in public relations for Coors; Rick Barber, KOA radio personality; and Laurie Spenser, Denver Post copy desk chief.

"Peter is articulate and has a very quick mind," Pearson said. "Hopefully this course will have a positive affect on the students."

Boyles welcomes anyone to attend one of his classes or listen to a particu­lar guest speaker.

He asks, however, that people who do so be considerate of the speaker and the students registered for the course.

"This means not monopolizing all of the speaker's time," Boyles said.

"Although the idea for the course was predominantly mine, Greg has · offered me the chance of a lifetime," he said. "I just hope I can learn as much from this experience as the students."

Women,s volleyball

Coach: Inexperience could hinder tCam' s talents

by Robert Ritter

For anyone who has ever seen the women's volleyball championship banners hanging in the Auraria gym, they don't bring to mind the crowded rafters of Boston Garden.

But women's volleyball coach Pat Johnson would love to add another banner to the three that already hang there. She even goes so far as to say she will sew one herself if her women win the conference championship.

The Roadrunners open the 1986 sea­son this Friday at Western State and if one word sums up the team it would be: inexperienced.

Johnson said her team has as much talent as any sh~'s ever had, but the

inexperience of the team could hamper its ability to perform as well as last year's squad.

"This squad and the whole general level of talent is better than we've had in the past. We have some excellent potential but we need some time to develop," Johnson said.

"We're really going to have to have some patience in putting things together, players as well as coaches. We've got 14 new faces out of 19 members on the squad," she said.

Johnson lost five starters from last year's team, which finished 30-16 over­all and second in the Continental Divide Conference with an 11-3 record.

Sophomore Corrine Donnelly will be the lone returning starter, but John­son said she feels the newcomers will nicely fill the vacated gaps. gaps.

"Corrine is playing better now than she did last year," Johnson said, "and we·ve got some strength this year to replace the starters we lost. In fact, some of the freshmen are real threats to be in the starting lineup. Right now, though, I'm just experimenting."

Donnelly agrees with her coach on the women's prospects for the '86 sea­son.

"This team is not as developed as last year's. Time is what it takes to develop. The base of the team is better but we need a little more experience in our passing game," Donnelly said. "We'll be strong in blocking and hitting with Lee Ann Dawson, Heidi Keyes and Diane Johnson.

"I was worried about losing my job this season because the freshmen are so good," she said.

Donnelly isn't sure if the women will improve on last year's success, but said she feels good about the strength of the bench and the team overall.

Johnson, starting her 18th season as head coach, went one big step toward bringing experience to her squad when she hired Jerrie McGahan as an assist­ant coach over the summer.

McGahan played on the Olympic volleyball team from 1970-1975 and has played professionally, inCluding a stint with the old Denver Comets. Last year she played professionally in Italy.

"I feel fortunate to be able to work with her. She's been an excellent addi­tion in that she's brought us so much experience," Johnson said.

Johnson said she thinks Regis, which returns with most of the same squad, will be the team to beat in the CDC, but said Metro should not be counted out.

"We'll be playing an underdog role again this year, but we could surprise some people," she said.

This is the first yeaF Johnson has ever had to make cuts from the team, and while it was difficult to cut people, she said it shows there is more interest in the team.

As Johnson prepares the Roadrunners for their first weekend trip, she com­pares her team to a common form of punctuation.

"The team is a question mark at this point in the season. There is a high level of talent but a lack of cohesive­ness, the ability to work together," Johnson said. "I think we can do well. It will depend on how the kids develop. That's more of a question mark than ever before."

If Johnson's team develops like she expects and gains the experience she deems necessary, she just may find herself sewing a banner in late November to hang on the north wall of the Auraria gym. D

The Snake Former Oakland Raiders quarter­

back Ken Stabler will be autographing copies of his new autobiography, Snake, in the Auraria Book Center next Monday from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m.

According to the Denver Area Book Promoters Association, the book tells of Stabler's years with the Raiders and how he, "created a reputation for chas­ing women, drinking hard and gener­ally raising hell." D

Draftiness by Kirk Gill

Registering for the draft is like a one­night stand.

That, at least, is the prevailing atti­tude among young men questioned on the Metro campus about draft registra­tion.

"It's like a one-night stand, because it's so easy to sign that piece 6f paper without, in your mind, really making a commitment," Alan Hoover, 18, said.

"Sure, I registered, but I ain't gong to go kill anybody."

All the men questioned bed regis­tered for the draft, but most also have serious reservations about fighting in a war overseas.

"I hope we learned from Vietnam," Bob Wright, 19, said.

When asked about penalties for non­registration, such as not receiving stu­dent loans or financial aid, not being eligible for Federal jobs or job benefits and a $250,000 fine or five years impri­sonment, all said that penalties played a part in deciding to register.

"It's (non-registration) just more hassle than it's worth," Wright said.

Some of those questioned, however, said they registered out of patriotic duty, and one said he registered because his parents made him do it.

Whatever the reason, virtually all young men are registering when they are supposed to.

Shelia Moore of Denver's Selective Service Office said that no Coloradans have been prosecuted for failing to register since mandatory registration was re-enacted in 1980.

Also, according to Cheryl Judson, director of Metro's Financial Aid Office, less than 3i of registration-age men nationally lied on financial aid statements or weren't registered.

Judson said the government has sophisticated means of catching those who fail to register.

"They take the names and run them through the big computer in the sky," Judson said.

Nam es are cross-referenced through Justice Department, Department of Motor Vehicles, Internal Revenue, Social Security, and school computers.

Judson added that, like the young men questioned on campus, all those applying for financial aid since she's been here have been registered for the draft. D

Burning the midnight oil may pe necessary.

Burning the 2:00or 3:00 or 4:00 AM oil is absurd.

Especially when an HP calculator can get the answers you want - in time to get a good night's

. sleep. For instance, our HP-15C Professional Scientific Calculator

has more built-in advanced math and statistical power than any other calculator. Our HP-41 Advanced Scientific Calculators have even more potential.

PG12602

That's because there are better than 2500 software packages available for them - more than for any other calculator.

There's even a special plug-in software package (we call it the Advantage Module) that's designed to handle the specific problems an engineering student has to solve in his, or her, course work.

No wonder professionals in engineering and the physical sciences widely regard HP calculators as the best you can get.

So check one out. Then, when your mother calls to ask if you're getting enough sleep, you won't have to lie.

Exhibitions express freedom cry for Prisoners of Conscience

by J. Johnson

Increruble exhibitions of pain, des­pair and injustice, superbly reproduced by 24 prominent Denver-area artists, represent the marrow of "Prisoners of Conscience" - torture victims or per­sons who disappeared at the hands of their government.

In recognition of the 25th anniver­sary of Amnesty International, the Arvada Center for Arts and Humani­ties offers a five-week display of paint­ings, sculptures, silk screens, videos, photographs and zen flower arrange­ments.

Each artist's work is a biographical sketch on behalf of individuals throughout world whose human rights have been violated.

Karen Breunig's "Birdman" portrays Dr Vojislav Sesely, an emaciated lec­turer, physically imprisoned with wires_ while birds soar freely outside. The walls of captivity are visibly unable to contain the man's soul.

Dr. Sesely, a Yugoslavian arrested for bis non-violent freedom of expres­sion, remained steadfast in bis beliefs throughout a grueling 27 hour inquisi­tion.

Preceding his trial, Sesely went on a hunger strike that left him frail and wasted. But, his condition did not deter him from delivering a three hour speech in his own defense. In that speech Sesely said, "The written and spoken word could not overthrow the government."

Breunig's "Birdman" captures the ,_ total essence of Sesely's torment, as well as bis convictions.

A different ordeal depicted through a sculpture by Barbara Houghton, chairperson for Metropolitan State College Arts department was equally compelling.

A jagged-edged wooden platform houses a video , relating the circum­stances surrounding the disappearance of Alejandro Rodriguez Urza, a Chi­lean architect.

His family received unoffici ·.assu­rances that he was alive and in prison from an ex-inmate who reported be had seen Alejandro in the prison that Alejandro had assisted him during an · illness.

Despite these assurances, the Chi­lean government officials still deny knowledge of Alejandro's detention or whereabouts.

Houghton titled her piece "When Someone Disappears It's Like They Go Into A Black Hole". The color accurately depicts the void that arises out of mysterious disappearances, and the jagged edge depicts the struggles with uncertainty.

In preparation for the exhibition each artist received the history of a prisoner of his or her choosing and was instructed to create a work about that prisoner.

"Prisoners of Conscience" are men, women, and children who have been imprisoned because of their beliefs,

Two programs exploring censorship have been scheduled for September by the Denver Public Library in con­nection with the faculty of University of Colorado at Denver.

The exhibition "Censorship and Libraries", focusing on key censorship battles of the past two decades, will be at the Denver Public Library from Sept. 8 - Oct. 19.

A lecture and panel discussion pro­ram titled "Focus on Censored Books" will run concurrent with the exhibition through September.Admission is free and open to the public.

color, religion, language or ethnic ori­gin, and who have never used or advo­cated violence.

The intricate works of these artisans link the souls of their victims with the rest of the world.

The exhibition1 part of a multi­disciplinary project, will take place from September 6 through October 5, and will involve many facets of art by writers, visual artists, musicians, dancers, choreographers, actors and scholars.

"When the First Two Hundred Let­ter_s Came", 'an experimental perfor­mance play, will be presented b y wr!_ter-director Marie Cartier starting on September 9. Using the "Prisoners of Conscience" exhibition as an integral backdrop, the play weaves together words and phrases from Amnesty International members' letters to pri­soners, and their responses. The title is derived from the letter of a released prisoner who told how the organiza­tion's letters ultimately led to his release.

On September 11 and 12, as part of the Center's dance series, a special col­laboration by David Taylor Dance Theatre and the Premiat Trio will be performed. This hauntingly poignant piece was conceived and written in 1944 and dedicated to a friend of Dmi­tri Shostakovich, who died in a Nazi concentration camp .

The Arvada Center's Theatre Com­pany will open its season with a pro­duction of the play "Every Good Boy Deserves Favor" on September 17. Written by Tom Stoppard, with music by Andre Previn, the play takes place in a mental hospital in the Soviet Union where a political prisoner shares a cell with a mental patient who believes he conducts his own orchestra.

Special tours of the exhibition for the deaf will be offered on September 26 and 27 before the performance by the National-Theatre of the Deaf.

On the final day of the project, October 5, the Center will present an afternoon symposium, "Human Rights in the Future: A Message of Hope?"

The "Prisoners of Conscience" pro­ject, in its focus on individuals, illus­trates that human-rights abuse is widespread throughout the world and not endemic to a particular system.

really written about," Keller -said. "Authors wrote about Molly Brown, the wealthy, politics and things that were interesting to them. The lower­income and minority groups no one wrote about, so what we do know about them is only what somebody alludes to or what we can dig up from the ground."

Keller said there is much to learn about the day-to-day lives of those who once lived in this area, which used to be Auraria. Archaeologists and an-

walk. "The stratigraphy (arrangement of

layers of rock or material each rep­resenting a geological time) had his­torical evidence, but I never had a chance to get in and look around. I saw the building going up and thought, 'Here we go again."'

Keller, together with Jon Kent, a newly hired historical archaeologist, and Dr. Leslie Wildesen, Colorado state archaeologist, intends to change all that.

According to campus architect Robert Kronewitter, no federal fund­ing is involved in the UCD Replace-

ment Building construction. Testing the ground under the building was left to AHEC's discretion.

Presently, when a new building is constructed using federal funding, a "request for proposal" is supposed to be filed with the state archaeologist. The request is a proposal to do a pre­liminary study of the land involved to determine if the area contains cultural resources (artifacts).

Keller said he can't swear that there is material worth digging for, but all those pot hunters wouldn't have been out there if there wasn't.

He said he saw evidence of areas worthy of study in the soil at the construction site of the new classroom building as he walked by on the side- The state archaeologist runs a file

check to see if there are existing records on the property and reviews the proposal. Once approved the land is tested. If nothing is found, the con­struction~ommence. If cultural resources are found, then a more ex­tensive dig may be performed.

The procedures are less than eff ec­tive, according to Keller. Wildesen is the only state archaeologist responsi­ble for checking and enforcing the procedures. While federal laws require and state statutes encourage that land be tested before construction begins, it is the responsibility of the builder to know of the requirements.

Wildesen said the government offers training sessions and that companies should designate someone to be res­ponsible for following the procedures. Existing policy is informal; however, ~ildesen is working on more formal procedures.

"Just about everyone loves history," Wildesen said. "They want to save old buildings or study a site. They want to do it but don't have the money. Devel­opers buy land, but if it won't make money, they won't do a study."

In the meantime, Keller and Kent are working on a strategy to prevent further destruction of possible cultural resour­ces on the Auraria campus. Kent has only been at MSC for three weeks, but already their strategy is taking form.

"AHEC has a plan drawn up for the next 20 and 50 years," Keller said. "They know where they're scheduled to build next. Jon and I will see where they're planning to build next and talk turkey about what's going on and work together (with AHEC)."

Kent said that before going to AHEC,

he and Keller will have to identify the kinds of things that might be found on campus by doing historical research with Wildesen. Once they have identi­fied potential archaeological resour­ces, they will go to AHEC and ask permission to conduct a study.

Keller says that the anthropology department didn't have the personnel to take steps to do something prior to Kent joining the staff. Now, with Kent's background in urban historical archae­ology, Keller plans to take charge.

'Tm not going to wait around any longer," he said.

The old adage that 'if only the walls could talk" to reveal the passing of time won't apply to Auraria anymore. Never again will classrooms be built, entomb­ing the young history of Denver before it can be uncovered. Not if Keller and Kent get their way. o
