University of Colorado at Denver on Thursday, Nov. 8, a group of ten Iranian students argued amongst themselves: the Moslem versus the Marxist, the ones who
. said they will leave as soon as a degree is earned versus those who will wait and see what happens back home.
Yet all ten reached a common opinion on two questions: the
., United States government must return the Shah' to Iran and the U.S. must stop its "imperialistic" actions in Iran.
''America has a policy of helping people from other countries
~ who are in trouble but have not commited crimes,'' said one student who, like all but one of the others, would not give his name. "Well, we believe the Shah is the biggest criminal in the world."
!) Most of the ten agreed the r~ cent actions by Iranian students in Tehran are appropriate. The Marxist, who would not give his name nor be photographed, disagreed.
fii(_ ''They (the Iranian students who took over the embassy in Tehran) cannot get the American peo.: pie's attention or get them to back their aims," he said. --
The group said that Americans do not understand the history of American involvement in Iran. They seemed to agree that the United States has helped Iran, but has demanded unjust economical concessions in return.
"The United States tells us we have to protect our country to protect their investments, but we have to buy the F-14s Get fighters) from them (the United States)," one student explained.
"We have come to school here because we do not have enough universities. Why? We're rich in minerals and everything else, but the imperialist countries take everything out," anothe/ said.
Admissions officials at the three Auraria schools said 205-270 Iranians are attending the three institutions (about 35-40 at MSC, 70-80 at UCD, and 100-150 at CCD).
Despite attacking the policies of the American government in their country, the Iranian students reasoned that they are not attacking the American people.
"We love Americans. We are criticizing the government, not the people. It's not the same thing," one mustachioed student said. "Did the Shah represent the Iranian people?'.'

Vaughn linked the Klan to "racism designed to save the profits of the big corporations" such as Coors and Gates Rubber.
INCAR is now orgaruzmg on the Auraria and D.U. campuses, as well as local factories, creating a link between students and the working class, according to Vaughn.
The Klan played an infamous role in the history of Colorado. At one time in the 1920s, the state was virtually con-trolled by the KKK. ·

In t e past year, Klan members have staged several demonstrations and counter-demonstrations. A cross was burned"""'near Sloans Lake on Rosh Hashana, theJewish New Year. Klan members also picketed a speech by Congresswoman Pat Schroeder at a local synagogue.

Karen Silkwood, ,a plutonium plant employee in Oklahoma City died in a mysterious car crash in November, 1974.
Silkwood, a lab analyst, was reportedly investigating safety violations at the Kerr-McGee plant fo~ the Oil, Chemical, and Atomic Workers Union. She died while about to deliver an envelope of documents to a union health official and a New York Times reporter.

"He is in the hearts of all Iranians. He is beyond politics and goes only with the truth," Kholgby said. "Before the revolution, I did not know who I was. Now I know Khomeini is the true leader.''
- Kholghy and each of the others disagreed with the Marxist when he said that the regime of Khomeini is still persecuting "leftists" in Iran. But their refusals to allow their names to be used in print was unexplained.

The group said their full tuition and fees completely support the costs of their · education here. They also said they aid American "imperialistic goals" when-' they return to Iran with American and western traditions and customs.
"Yes, we are living in the enemy's country,'' admitted the Marxist.

U CD student John Murray has planned a demonstration on Tuesday, Nov. 13, at the Auraria Student Center. Murray said his demonstration, sponsored by a "spontaneous group" unamed as of Friday, Nov. 9, will protest the hostage situation in Tehran and the "un-1t conscienable statements" made by local Iranian students to the news media.
"We consider (the protests of the Iranian students in America) a direct attack on the American people," Murray said.

Despite its advances, Scribes is in trouble
by Angelo G~ancanna I Scribes magazine, a Metropolitan
State College literary project, has been nominated for the national Outstanding Academic-Community Projects award by the Freedoms Fouhdation at Valley Forge, Pennsylvania.
The nomination is the most recent of many honors for Scribes, which is written about and for the senior communi~y. The publication provides a creative outlet for the poetry, music and prose of the senior community.
The project is produced by the MSC department of English in conjunction with the MSC Center for Community Services. MSC students make up the staff and the magazine is under the direction of English professor Bob Pugel.
The magazine receives submissions from senior writers in every state and Norway. In five years, circulation has grown from 1,000 to 15,000.
Scribes, now a slick_publication with full color covers, had a humble beginning. Students simply collected seniors' poetry and prose, and had it printed in the school's print shop. As the students
- have become more sophisticated in production, the magazine has become more professional in appearance. But the
publication is in trouble. "Our fifth anniversary issue may be
our last," Pugel said. "Help from the school is practically non-existent. The publication is financed by students hustling and subscriptions, yet the business office charges us to handle the money we raise."
Another problem, according to Pugel, is the turn-over in student staff. The winter/spring issue, currently in production, has only two repeat students on the editorial boards.
"It's amazing we can Jjublish a magazine of this quality without a permanent office, equipment or a full-time staff," Pugel said. "The college would not even purchase an ad from us."
Despite the problems, Scribes has been praised by Gov. Lamm, Sen. Gary Hart, Rep. Pat Schroeder, and Rep. Tim Wirth. There is no question Scribes editor Marilyn Kiarsis said, that the magazine fills a void.
"We are the only magazine in the country geared specifically to seniors," Pugel said. ''I hate to see it go by the wayside, but the intensity has taken its toll."
The Freedoms Foundation nomination is an honor, Pugel said, but Scribes -E needs concrete help to survive. ~

Productivity· has unknown factors ,. by Steve Raabe
Metropolitan State College faces a cut next year in faculty quantity and quality, according to an MSC professor involved in a faculty productivity study.
Dr. Barbara Blansett, professor of English and women's studies at Metro said the Colorado Legislature' s Joint Budget Committee will probably reduce funding for faculty salaries in Colorado's colleges and universities.
has been Jots and lots of rhetoric, but not many meaningful results.''
Schools throughout the state are facing the dual problems of decreasing student enrollment and increasing costs. When these factors are plugged into existing productivity formulas, lower teacher productivity is the result.
The danger of trying to assess faculty productivity, Blansett said, is that the JBC will look at the figures without taking into a~count other, less tangible, factors. She cited Metro's reputation as a :;:;:;:::. ·r. •?/}}; college. wher~ faculty members spend ~Hf ~~{f/{ more time with a student's individual ;:;:;:::" ':::::::::::'::::::: needs as opposed to other school's em- :} .tttt phasis on faculty research activities. ..... ·::ft?tt
''The Metro concept of compensa- V .. \ /Hf tory education requires different methods r. '{{'.\ m-,,...,.,,'l!">.i'
Blansett represents Colorado's fouryear colleges on a committee that is studying ways to evaluate and increase faculty productivity. The committee was established by the Colorado Commission on Higher Education after the JBC ordered the study in last year's appropriations bill.
Blansett said the committee has generally been ineffective because of the problems involved with trying to define the wide ranging topic of faculty productivity. She said the committee does not adequately represent the state's college faculty. Only three of the committee's 12 members are college or university instructors. Six members are college administrators, and the remaining three are what CCHE director Lee Kerschner calls ''informed citizens" not directly involved in higher education.

career goals. If the legislature really wants to increase productivity, why don't they just pack us all into Mile High Stadium and set up a bunch of loudspeakers?"
Blansett said she hopes the committee can produce a report that includes ac- ~flZtlbz:::d
"Since we (faculty) are on the receiving end of this, we should have gotten representation of all kinds of faculty on the committee," Blansett said. "There

The JBC has required that the report be completed by Jan. 8, 1980 so that it can be used when preparing the 1980-81 budget.

by Frank Mullen I The president of the Trustees of the
Consortium of State Colleges said Nov. 9 the best solution to management problems at Auraria is the ''modified status quo" model.
Under this plan, he said, the University of• Colorado at Denver and Metropolitan State College enjoy greater representation on the campus executive board, but the "campus executive officer" has authority to resolve stalemates between the institutions.
. John Marvel, Consortium president, said m a telephone interview the modified ~yst~m ~aintains the i~ea of two separate msutuuons and provides Denver with "the diversification of options the city deserves.''
Under the plan the three schools -MSC, UCD, and the Community College of Denver at Auraria - would have representatives of their governing boards on the executive board. He said the model is little different from the way the Auraril Boar.ct now operates, but the new system provides for an executive officer with the "overriding authority" to resolve conflicts between the institutions.
It :-vas th~ absence of an overriding ~uthonty which left some tri-campus issues - such as the establishment of a common calendar among the three institutions - unresolved in the past.
"The executive board would have a more defined responsibility," he said. ". . . the board would tighten up the decision-making authority on the campus."
Marvel rejected the proposal of the Board of Regents, who now govern UCD. The . ~egents pro~osed a newly created position of "a chief administrative officer," who would be answerable to both the Regents and the Trustees Marvel said the Regents' plan is simply ~ "holding pattern for a merger."
Over the past year several people have advocated a complete merger of
UCD and MSC. They say a merger is a practical solution to Auraria's management problems since the students' demographic information - age, race, residence, and other factors - is very similar for both institutions.
Marvel said a merger is unnecessary and there are no cost-effective reasons or educational benefits associated with the plan to combine the institutions. He said merging the institutions would be a disservice to the community since the students and the faculty of both "perceive themselves to be different.''
"The students at both institutions have different motivations in their involvement in higher education," be said.
He said the students who attend Metro go there to gain a "quick entry into a career," while many students who attend UCD undergraduate classes see their institution as a stepping stone to graduate school.
Marvel said the Trustees are com- ' fortable with the consolidation already agreed upon concerning the academic programs and the support services and the board is committed to cooperation with Auraria's other entities.

The instruction methods range from straight lectures and role playing to the feeling exercise. The feeling exercise calls for the students to pick a partner and spend five minutes exploring each others' hands and faces.

said, is to help students become "responsive to each other, and ready to help deal with feelings of alienation .. . "
"Willpower and Self Improvement" student Ray Shideler, a real estate attorney, finds the course enriching. A student of personal growth, Shideler said the course, ''helps me to expand my horizons as to who I am." He believes selfawareness is essential to meaningful existence.
Feinberg and Putnoy acknowledged that some attend the class just to get out of the house and meet people. But others, they said, attend the class to solve problems.

". · Feyline 'yellow-shirts' have hazardoUs jobs
by Frank Mullen I As the roadies set up the cannons, am
ps, and the spider-webs of cables that make up the technical part of the Jethro Tull show, Shalom Maxim on conducts a meeting of the Feyline "yellow-shirt" staff in the bowels of McNichols Arena.
Maximon, the security director., runs the meeting like a cross between a standup comic and a raving madman. He knows how to motivate his people. He jokes and screams and cajols them about their performance at the last show. Maximon, who looks like a middlelinebacker, seems to have the energy of a bantum-weight boxer as he advises hls staff on the sensitive occupation of maintaining order at a Big Mac rock concer_t.
Maximon lectures his staff on courtesy, gives them their assignments for the evening and then whirls in a circle as he looks at each of his staff members.
"Now," he says, with hls eyes rolling upward and a mock strain in his voice, "is there anybody who doesn't know what Barry Fey looks like?
The staffers laugh. They know. "Good," he says. "So if the guy tells
you to do something-do it!" "And for Gods sake," a staff-member
whispers, "don't search him." Barry Fey may well be the only person
not in uniform who is automatically exempt from close inspection and possible search by Maximon's yellowshirted squad. Each arena door is guarded by a yellow-shirt, backed up by several Denver Police officers. They pat bulging pockets, peer in purses and peek in packs.
In some cases, concert-goers are subjected to a body-frisk either by the event staffers or the DPD officers.
The staff is instructed to s-earch only those who look "suspicious," but as one yellow-shirt says: "Have you ever seen a rock concert crowd? How the hell do you tell who is suspicious?-" He is right about that. If you use the majority as the·norm, a guy in a business suit is a "suspicious" person.
Maximon says he knows the search .,policy is discriminatory but "if we didn't do it the city wouldn't let us use the facilities." Denver, he says, has a city ordinance prohibiting cans, plastic and glass containers or bottles in its arenas. Maximon says the events staff was created because people objected to being frisked by policemen and it was reasoned customers might object less if the security was handled by a "peer group."
"Our ideal is to not to have to search at all," Maximon says. " ... There isn't any kind of defined (search) policy at all, but somehow we have to placate the city and be as easy on our customers as possible.
"The people have the right to refuse to be inspected," he says. "But if they don't permit us to look we don't have to let them in the show. We reserve that right on the back of our tickets."
The patrons filing into the east gate of Big Mac for the Jethro Tull show Nov. 9 show varied reactions to the search procedure. Some, obviously used to the system, hand over their purses and back-
- packs to the yellow-shirts the moment they are past the ticket takers. Some of the men automatically open their coats in the manner of a butterfly spreading its wings and pirouette before the security staff. Others glare at the yellow-shirts and clench their fists menacingly. Some submit grudgingly, mumbling the words
''illegal search and seizure.'' Captain Jerry Kennedy, a Denver of
ficer who has attended ''thousands of rock concerts" since 1970, says the frisks and inspections are only illegal if the police conduct them without probable cause. A bulging coat pocket, Kennedy says, is probable cause.
"For the police tq conduct a search like that (without probable cause) would be an invasion of the search and seizure law," he says, " ... But for a private citizen to do it (search) isn't a violation of any civil rights legislation."
Kennedy says common sense is a necessary part of the yellow-shirts qualifications.
"I go around every once in a while and tell these tee-shirt guys, 'Hey, let's use your head,' " he says. "Like at the Kiss concert. Well hell, what's a 12 year-old kid gonna bring in there for God sakes?"
Kennedy says if it were not for the Feyline staff there would have to be twice as many Denver Police officers at the rock concerts. In addition to door security, he says, the yellow shirts provide a buffer between the group and the crowds, patrol the aisles, and eject rowdies from the arena.
At the Tull show several people are ~ thrown out by the arena bouncers. Some ~ of the ejectees are rowdy and drunk, S: others are rowdy and drugged, a few are ~ simply rowdy or have "stolen tickets." ~

the barest of premises: the actors know only the location of the scene, or the first line of dialogue, or maybe only the occupation of the characters. From these beginnings or a myriad of otbers, the performers create a scene with clearly defined characters, location, and intentions.
Some sketches take only a few seconds to formulate and jell, others never do. Later, the successful scenes are studied. Some are rewritten and rehearsed, and become part of the regular repertoire.
Although the resident company in Chicago performs improvisations with an audience providing the location, dialogue starters, or whatever the particular exercise may require, the touring company performs only one such exercise. The other skits have been rehearsed and selected for the tour. But they are all the results of the evolutionary process of the improvisational technique.
Like any art, improvisational acting is dependent upon observation, creativity, attention to details, constant awareness of the overall impact and goals, and of course, the skill to handle the medium. Each sketch must combine all of these ingredients ... from each per-
former. Whether it is a one minute scene in

That is what Second City does. For 20 years, it has remained dedicated to the "classical" style of improvisational theater while changing topics to keep pace with the times and the audiences. It · has survived where others have come and " gone, others who did not have the ear, the attitude, the ability to listen to American culture the way the members of Second City do.
And Sunday night, Nov. 11, at least l, 700 people in Denver showed up only two hours after a sudden snowstorm to let the touring company of Second City show them the versatility, deftness, and spontaneity that is the real stuff.

Santana runs with the-times I by S. Peter Duray-Bito
' MARATHON Santana Devadip Carlos Santana - guitars; Chris Solberg - guitars; David Margen - bass; Alan Pasqua - all keyboards; Alexander J. Ligertwood - lead vocal, rhythm guitar; Graham Lear - drums; Raul Rekow - congas, percussion; Armando Peraza ~ timbales, percussion. Columbia FC36154.
***Yi That Santana was once described as
a chameleon is no surprise: carefully blending in with the dominant musical trend, while never appearing too obtrusive. But through the years, Santana's quiet, authoritative command over his music qualifies him more as a jewel. Whatever light is cast on him, he reflects with radiant creativity and artistic excellence.
~ Ever since his first album, when listeners lost themselves in his vital new sound and in the lions hidden on the cover, Santana has used a basic latin/salsa rock formula. A strong percussion and rhythm section have propelled his albums to showcase Santana's newest musical direction. These forays have led him from early 70s San Fransisco rock to a rich association with John McLaughlin and the new jazz/rock sound of the middle 70s. As disco enveloped the musical scene, Santana tastefully adapted with several strong
.-- disco hits. Marathon reflects the end of a
decade. The basic thrust of the new album is in more of a rock vein than ever before. With dominant double rhythm guitar themes throughout, the overall sound is- metallic. There is the usual strong rhythm section and a powerful vocalist in Alexander J. Ligertwood. Tom Coster, a keyboardist with Santana for most of the decade, has been replaced with Alan. Pasqua, who does a credible job. As a whole, Santana has reached the critical point where the band is greater than the sum of the individual musicians. Again, a tribute to Santana's subtle,. but strong leadership.
-.
Musically, Santana has written several hits here that are already on the airwaves. "Stand Up" is a strong, upbeat rocker, with a hint of disco rhythm and a "get off your ass" attitude. "All l Ever

Pianist Claudio Arrau will be the featured soloist with the Denver Symphony for two concerts, Nov. 15 and Nov. 17. The program will include Brahm 's · Concerto for Piano and Orchestra No .. 1, in D minor, Op. 15 featuring the distinguished pianist.
A child prodigy at the age of four, Arrau began his world tours at the age of 20. In 1927, he won first prize in the European International Geneva Concours for pianists. Since that time he has generated applause throughout the world, appearing with the foremost orchestras season after season.

Wanted" is more varied, wjth a two bar intro theme that really goes back to Abraxas. The song contains the album's strongest solo by Santana and offers a short percussion highlight.
Probably the strongest piece on the aloum is the instrumental ' ' Aqua Marine.'' A lilting arpeggio intro is followed by a revolving bass line and that transparently textured percussion that has characterized Santana's fiQest achievements. The piece is simple and dreamy, yet well-timed with key chord changes and a distant Caravanserai~like solos. It is a wonderfully moody piece that draws inspiration from all of San-tana's efforts of the 70s. ·
Other pieces on Marathon are not so successful. By the middle of the ,second side, one becomes weary of the pounding, metallic guitars and an overall "sameness" to the structure and arrangement of the songs. There are spotlights of inspiration, such as a wellexecuted break in "Summer Lady" and the salsa/ disco sound of "Stay." Santana's solos, though, are tQo short and mechanical. He solos at the same point in each song - the middle. Not. one song displays his incredible finale technique, like in the opening number on Amigos. The basic vocal arrangement ends and the band takes .off with Santana winding out a .fiery, piercing guitar solo.
By hesitating to really break things loose, the album reflects the musical doldrums of the late 70s. A certain Chicago-like sensibility pervades: let' s all rejoice at blandness. But Santana is stronger than that and will certainly attune to the coming 80s and whatever the new decade has 'in store for us. In the meantime he will rely on the spiritual leadership of Sri Chimnoy - perhaps the longest standing musical guru.
First discovered by John McLaughlin (leading to his use of the name Mahavishnu), Sri Chimnoy has had a guiding influence on Santana ever since his association with McLaughlin. On the album sleeve is a quote by Chimnoy concerning the marathon. This, and his other thoughts about love and life, have a happily naive sentimentality that oddly resembles the sayings of Mao Tse-tung.
Regardless of what motivates him, Santana's musical efforts over the past decade are a significant contribution to the contemporary musical scene.

Kaufman is a witty,_natural comic· by Boscoe Phleming
Andy Kaufman is a rarity: a professional comedian · who is naturally funny. Those who've seen Kaufman on T. V. have their favorite bits that he will repeat. But his 'aren't the contrived setups employed by lesser comedians.
These bits blend together even though no polished transition is evident. He is like a funny friend at home, entertaining pals.
Kaufman's talents were demonstrated Nov. 7 at Rainbow Music Hall. The show opened with a well-rehearsed magician then Kaufman came out and worked some magic.
Rubber-Kaufman bounced along to the familiar polka beat of "Oklahoma" (polka beat?) Stiff-Kaufman hunched through his Latka bit.
The crowd responded to his topsyturvy n;ality. As a heavily accented Latka he said, "This is really the real me. For everything else tonight, I was only fooling."· The voice and character changes. came so comfortably the audi-
ence didn't have a chance to determine who the "real" Kaufman was.
In one of his conga-accompanied songs, Andy sang a duet. It was a folk song in an unknown language concerning the seduction of a woman. Shifting from protesting falsetto to lust-crazed baritone, he raced through the song and ended it with a spirited dance.
The highlight of the set was the famous wrestling match. "Five hundred dollars," Kaufman said, "to any woman who can pin my shoulders in three minutes." The audience mumbled and shifted about. "I know there are strong women, and some who know how to wrestle, but I just don't believe that any woman has the brains to beat a man,'' he declared.
Predictably, amid good-natured booing and cajoling, several marched up on stage. One of them was prepared: her four-and-a-half foot rotund figure was moo-mooed for decency's sake. Beneath she was smartly swaddled in thermal underwear and red cowboy boots.· Ob-

Shadow Box deals with life and death
by Hugh Johnson ~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~
Theatre Threshold's recent production of Michael Cristofer's Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award winning play, The Shadow Box, playing at the Arvada Center for Arts and Humanities is an important theatrical event for the Denver metropolitan area.
Although the play deals directly with the overlooked, or ignored, subject of facing terminal illness, the play is ultimately about life, and specifically about the lives of three terminally ill patients and their families. The play is set at a settlement of cabins on the grounds of a California hospital.
Shadow Box is uplifting, despite the serious situations in the three story lines. Although the three families have a dying member in common, they are drastically different in b~ckground in their dealing with fate. What makes the play uplifting is that all three families are forced to accept the pending deaths and have time to confront and resolve their relationships with each other.
Unexpected death robs us of this contemplative time, a time which requires strength and ultimately provides strength to face the future.
The production, astutely directed by Laura Cuetara, succeeds in bringing life to the characters in the play.
Maggie (Midge Montgomery) has come with her son, Steve (Jeffrey Hess) to visit her dying husband, Joe (Ralph Jorba). Maggie emerges as a . woman dedicated to her family. Her untiring love screams her anguish and moves us greatly. Montgomery's performance, while starting out on a presentational tone, evolved into a moving portrait of a middle-aged housewife robbed of the fruits of her many years of labor as a mother and wife.
She refuses to face her husband's fate and is angered by the end of their life together - a life which never really blossomed. The dreams that enabled
them to bear the struggle are now shat- -tered, and the memories of the struggle -are all they have to replace those dreams. Jorba's kind, sensitive portrayal of Joe is moving in his awkward reflection of the character's life.
Jorba reveals a man, not of words, but of human compassion, who needs his family more than ever to supply the why • of his life and to help him face death. Hess' Steve combined the right amount of boyish innocence with a frightened sensitivity inherited from his parents.
Unfortunately the second cabin does not provide the clarity or relationships needed to elicit the audience's empathy. "' Brian (George Nocovich), an unsuccess-ful writer, is living out the remainder of his life with his young lover, Mark (Robert Wells), a former hustler from San Francisco. Mark is a passionately intell,igent, attractive young man, who has been stimulated by Brian's wit and sensitivity. Brian is a remarkably vulnerable man, who is always falling in love with the wrong people, and the audienc,e should immediately feel his warmth and charm, just as Mark did.
When Brian's ex-wife, Beverly, arrives suddenly for a visit, Mark reveals , that he stole Brian's wallet when they first met, but returned it the next day because he found Brian interesting. Yet there was nothing in Nocovich's performance that would indicate why Mark would have bothered to return the wallet. For the most part, the pair seem surprised to find themselves together on stage at all. The love, or at least the attraction between them, is unevidenced.
Naturally this makes Saralu Diller's job of portraying Beverly a most difficult one. Her reactions to Mark and Brian are correct considering what she is receiving from them.
It is pointless, however, for her to portray Beverly as the highly sensitive woman who left Brian, when there is so little evidence that this Brian has ever

viously, she saw Kaufman wrestle on the "Tomorrow Show" or " Saturday Night Live," and she could taste the $500.
The audience saw her and starting rooting for "Sumo, Sumo!" Applause decided who would get to wrestle Kaufman. Sumo and a woman who claimed to have "the brains to pin him,' ' were selected.
Sumo was gone in thirty seconds and Kaufman strutted across the stage shouting for competition.
The woman with brains gave him some. It was a true gladitorial bout and, when Brains almost had him pmned (was Kaufman really t rying?), the audience turned into a Madison Square Garden audience. The mob leaped to their feet, shouting.
After a noble tussle, Brains' dream of victory and vindication ended. Kaufman's record now stood at 33-0.
It was then movie-time. One film featured Andy being challenged to wrestle a primordial galoot. Before any permanent damage occurred, Andy was able to get a can of spinach. Revitalized,
he defeated the galoot with ease. The finale was Elvis reincarnate. The
Elvis sneer wasn't the affected mask seen in many impersonators of Presley; it was startling in its likeness. The Elvis body Kaufman seemed to be wearing was graceful, but still exhibited some of the awkwardness visible in the real Elvis.
Presley supposedly said, a few months before his death, that Kaufman did the best Elvis imitation. Kaufman liked the characterization well enough to stay in it for several songs. The only things lacking were externals: camera flashes, strong-armed security and genuinely screaming fans. Otherwise, it was a mini-Presley show. .
The show ended with a sing-along and the audience left leisurely. The mood even lasted while scores of cars were jockeying for exit position. Instead of'the usual honking and cursing, drivers were acting civil, and some were even courteous.
It showed what a good laugh could do.
Metro opera for opera haters . by Gary Myers
"If to men, not to God We now must pray, Tell me Secretary, tell me, Who are these dark archangels; Will they be conquered, Will they be doomed?"
I
These compelling lines are part of the powerful musical opera, The Consul, by Gian Carlo Menotti, soon to play on campus at Saint Cajetan's.
"The opera is for those who don't like opera - and those who do," says Terry Bursed, stage director for the production.
He said if you have avoided opera because of visions of an obese Gertrude in Viking horns wailing cataclysms then you may miss a chance for a moving musical theatre experience.
"This is a 20th century piece on a ·20th century theme,'' says Bursed, who has worked on 9 plays and 3 operas. This is his second Menotti opera, having done The Medium last February. Bursed works closely with the theatre and music departments. (He currently is musical director
for Servant of Two Masters, now playing at Metropolitan State College theatre.) He hopes these two fields will mesh in the production for maximum drama in a musical. He hopes to instill two acting styles in the musical performers: stylized dancing and stark realism. The theatre in musical theatre, he says, is too often lacking.
"The story concerns Magna - the wife of a Hungarian freedom fighter before the '56 revolution and her struggle to cut through the red tape of the Yugo· slavian consulate to escape the country, he says, "It is not only an iron curtain theme'. The beauty of the piece is its universality, the drama of alienation between people and the institution."
The drama is unique in its frightening imagery. Once a giant fetus appears and Magna will hallucinate characters in dream sequences. A common theme in modern tragedy is loss of faith; The Consul contains characters confronted with a world that has lost its faith. ·
The opera features inspired piano accompaniment by Dolores Netzel. Musically directed by Vernon Moody,

needed or wanted anyone. Nocovich might make a fine Captian
Queeg or even Harold Hill, but a Brian he's not, and the play suffers immeasurably for it.
The life and lingering death portrayed in the third cabin provides the audience with the pathos and suspense that make the evening memorable. Felicity (convincingly played by Anne Bradley) is an aging and embittered woman, whose feisty retorts to the interviewer (Jeffrey Harms) ignore the fact that her inevitable death has been unnaturally postponed. Her illusions are fed by her meek and often-maligned daughter, Agnes, whose devotion is ironically ·prolonging their suffering.
. . ;··
Agnes' reluctant discussion with the interviewer, the most dramatic scene in the production, carefully reveals the lies and delusions that Agnes has fostered to appease her mother. Patricia Maren's performance as Agnes intricately combines the innocence, strength, deception, and the longing to return to a loving world she never really knew, with the supressed anger of a woman who denied herself a life of her own while waiting for her mother's life to end.
Despite the personal resolution that frees the other characters from their pain, Agnes must still find the strength to let her mother die, and the audience is left with the haunting hope that she will find that strength.

Metro hosts ·women s V-ball regional tourney
by Cheryl Linden
Metro State College will host the Women's Regiona.I Volleyball Championships when six teams, including MSC, will compete at the Auraria Gym on Nov. 16-17.
I
Metro's team has been the regional champion for two years. Last year the team took 7th olace in nationals after a 34-0 season.· This year the team is 21-7. Two of the losses were to the University of Northern Colorado, a new addition to division II.
"I feel we have just as good a team as we did last year," Coach Pat Johnson said. "We should make the finals. I feel UNC is beatable,'' she said.
The starters for regionals will be: •Mary Dougherty, Sr., 5'10", who
for the last two years has been on the All Tournament Team. Coach Johnson considers her an outstanding hitter.
•Anita Mathes, Jr., 5'9", who won the Most Valuable Player award for last year's regional tournament. She is an outstanding hitter and setter.
• Julie Buntrock, Jr., 5 '6", who was also on the All Tournament Team last year. She is an excellent setter.
• Sue Dammer, 5 '9' ', a freshman from Minnesota.
• Carol Brown, 5' 10", a freshman from Bear Creek.
•Sandra Mayer, soph, 5'8" or Liz Ripsan, a freshman from North High School.
Other competing teams will be UNC, Southern Utah State College, University of Southern Colorado, Regis and Colorado College.
The tournament will be held in the Auraria Gym (at 11th Street between Lawrence and Larimer Sts.) Friday and Saturday, Nov. 16 and 17. The games are scheduled for 1 p.m., 4 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Friday and at 11 a.m., 3 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Saturday.
Metro students are admitted free, other students pay $1 per session and non-students are charged $2 per session.
Metro State College's women's volleyball team wound up their season Friday Nov. 9 with a victory over the Air Force Academy at the Physical Education Building.
The ladies took three of four sets 15-6, 15-5, 14-16, 15-10 to finish out regular season play with a 10-2 conference mark and a 21-7 overall record.
MSC ended its season with a three game win streak which it hopes to extend into this weekend's Region VII Championships.
A Regis player trips up his MSC opponent in a recent match. MSC lost 2-1.
Joggers beware! by Jeremy Bender
Beware, joggers of Denver! Some of those who drive those infernal, internal combustion machines have all but declared war on those of us who participate in the ever-growing sport of recreational running.
I recently spent an evening soliciting information in bars around Denver and was treated to a startling insight into some automobile drivers' mentality concerning runners. It can be summed up by saying that some motor vehicle operators have no great love for joggers on the street.
"I'd just as soon hit 'em as not," said one grizzled type with a shrug of his shoulders.
"They really should make an attempt to be aware that a car driver has rig_hts too! - it's their ass .. . "reasoned a Mercantile restaurant patron.
"I kind of like to slip my clutch at crosswalks just to watch 'em jump," said a young man who looked like he wasn't kidding, tho:ugh he snickered as if he'd just cracked a marvelously funny joke.
As drivers were once urged to "drive defensively,'' runners must now be advised to "run defensively."
"I always try to run against traffic so that I can watch what the oncoming cars are up to,'' said Herb Lindsay, a 12-year veteran of the sport and newcomer to Colorado.
fie signals. The point of impact of a vehicle on
the average runner would be somewhere between the top of the calf and mid- " thigh. We're talking at Least a ton of unthinking, unfeeling steel versus around 160 pounds of easily breakable bone anq muscle tissue. The car always wins - the result being a severe injury which, if the runner is lucky, will keep the runner off the streets for only a few months. 4
The most important thing for a runner to be aware of on the streets is his own frailty. Also, Denver is dotted with parks and recreational areas where the runner does not even have to deal with the few morons-behind-the-wheel that lit- . ter the city streets. We, as the ' running-' community, must assume responsi.bility for our actions when on tJie street if we plan to continue to enjoy the sport and "run defensively."
