Mere takes case to state bo8rd · by James Tabor

~ There could be beer served at the Mercantile by March 18. Or by April 1. Or not at all.

The State Excise and License Depart­ment has 30 days from the date of last Thursday's hearing to determine whether it will issue the Mercantile

- another beer license. At the hearing, the Mercantileoffered

petitions and testimony in support of its attempt to regain the license, which it allowed to expire last November.

Mercantile supporters remain op­timistic.

"I feel positive about the hearing," said Rickey Fiwimmons, the Mercan­tile's attorney. "The 30-day waiting

period is standard procedure. I believe the hearing went well."

To get another beer license, the Mer­cantile Company had to prove there is a need and desire for beer to be sold in the restaurant, and that such a service would be beneficial to the surrounding neighbqrhood.

According to testimony at the hear­ing, there are 14 beer outlets in the same zone as the Mercantile, and five of them sell 3.2 beer, and only two of those sell it for on-premises consumption.

The Mercantile called five witnesses who were residents or owners of a business in the area surrounding the Mercantile who safd there is a need and desire for beer to be -sold there. One reason expressed was the traffic patterns.

New skills, new friends made in new class. >. Continued from_page 1 ,....

clim, practice 20 minutes a day, gain proficiency at the keyboard, become familiar with the microcomputer, have fun and meet new friends.

"The exciting thing for them," Rucker said, "is getting to meet ne'w friends."

All of the children have name tags to help Rucker keep track of the small herd. When asked what she thought of the program, Rucker replied:

"I love it, love it, those children are refreshing and fun. We could have taken more because there was a tremen­

-.~ dous demand. I just hope they will hang with me - those little kids get so restless."

Rucker had taught typing to fourth graders before, so she was the natural choice for instructor.

The class time was designed to fit into the children's schedules in a unique way. The time, 6 to 7:30 p.m., was chosen because it is neither too early nor too late. It gives the children a chance to unwind after school is out, but is also early enough so that the kids are not

1 ready for bed during class.

y

The children seem to be responding to the curriculum well.

"They have come here ready,'' Rucker said. -"These kids are here because mom and dad paid money and brought them here and they want to learn typing."

Attention Students!

They are about a third of the wa~ through the course and Rucker said the children are starting to get comfortable on the keyboards.

The children are also learning typewriter etiquette, which teaches them that it is not all right to rip a piece of paper out of the typewriter, and other basic rules of caring for their machines.

A section of the class will be devoted solely to gaining familiarity with the computer. The children are learning what the computer is and how it relates to our fast-changing society.

"A computer to them is like a radio -Was to you and I," Rucker said.

A lot of the kids have access to com­puters at their schools and several have them at home.

Although the children will not have tptal keyboard proficiency after the ten lessons, they will know the e11tire alphabet and its order on the keyboard.

The biggest question in Rucke(s mind is whether or not all of the students are still there at the end of the course.

So, if you find yourself in the South Classroom on Tuesday and Thursday nights and start thinking that the freshman get smaller and smaller every year, remember they are just children trying to get a head start on something some people Will never learn. 0

of Auraria students, many of whom fre­quently pass by the restaurant.

Testimony went on record that many people prefer the atmosphere of the Mercantile to the other 3.2 establishments, The Mission, in the Auraria Student Center, and Thirsty's, at 901 Wazee St.

The petitions introduced had 194 signatures, which were only valid if the signer is 21-years-old and a resider_:it or owner of a business in the Mercantile's zone.

"It'$ too bad we couldn't have presented student petitions," sajd Mary

Anne Crowell, new manager of the Mer­cantile. "I'm sure many students would have offered their support.

"We want to make this the kind of place everybody can come to," Crowell said. "I believe the future now is look­ing much brighter."

The Mercantile's loss of its beer license caused it to be in breach of its lease with AHEC, which served ·the Mercantile with a notice of default on Jan. 25.

The notice advised the Mercantile Company it has 45 days to comply with the terms bf the lease. 0

people and their elected officials can make intelligent choices and decisions," he .said. "The purpose is to articulate and increase tmderstanding of the issues of nuclear weapons and of the possibility of nuclear war."

Schonbeck feels the course is necessary to fill gaps in the average person's knowledge about nuclear arms policies.

"The subject is as mysterious to most people as sex used to be," he said. "Nobody wants to talk about it. Kids don't ask mom and dad what they know about it. You either find out on your owh or else you have a lot of misconcep-tions." ·

Students must keep an informal jour­nal on the class and the two required readings. Exams are optional in lieu of extra projects. ·

periments" that raise questions of morality.

"No wonder we're not trusted," said Gil Trujillo, a pre-dental student ... MSC, after the "Hiroshima" lecture. "The U.S. is the bad guy in the eyes of the rest of the world."

Sharon Shatswell, a chemistry major at MSC, said it appeared to her that the U.S. "wanted to try out their new toy on people and cities. We were probably­sick of blowing up sand."

Related topics were still being discuss­ed by several students an hour after the class period.

" It's really a great class," said MSC graduate Robin Heid. "I am furthering my personal education with this class. -Schonbeck is a great instructor. He has so much information and he presents an unbiased viewpoint most of the time. My only objection is that Schonbeck once told us how scared he was about U.S. nuclear weapons policy. It's just not necessary;·

Schonbeck is a proponent for nuclear disarmament as well as for nuclear freeze. He says he tries not to editorialize in clas5, however.

"People can make their own decisions better with information and opinions from various sources," he said. "I plan to have one or two speakers in class who are advocates of nuclear arms buildup."

How much do we need to know? Are there dangers in making so much technical information available to the · · public? Schonbeck feels that in a par:· ticipatory governmimt such as ours, the public should know everything. One of his lectures is based on the article by Howard Morland, "The H-Bomb Secret; To Know How is To Ask Why." In it Morland says, "I am telling you the secret (of the Hydrogen Bomb) to make a basic point as forcefully as I can: Secrecy itself, especially the power of a f~w designated i-experts' to declare some topics off limits. contributes to a political climate in which the nuclear establishment can conduct business is usual, protecting and perpetuating the production of these horror weapons ... Understanding the product is necessary to understanding the system."

In a 1947 letter appealing for support for the Emergency Committee of Atomic Scientists, Albert Einstein wrote:

"Through the release of atomic energy, our generation has brought into the world the most revolutionary force since prehistoric man~s discovery of fire .. This basic power of the universe caonot be fitted into the outmoded concept of narrow nationalisms. For there is no secret and there is no defense; there is no possibility of control except through the aroused understanding and insistence of the peoples of the world ...

We scientists recognize our . in­escapable responsbility to carry to our fellow citizens an understanding of the simple facts of atomic energy and its im­plications for society. In this lies our on­ly security and our only hope - we believe that an informed citizenry will act for life and not death." 0

OplEd Notes From the Underground

Whispers as deadly as bangs· Every spring Americans betray their heritage as the

sons and daughters of damn-fool dreamers. We are congenital optimists. The blood that courses through our veins carries the eternal pulse of the faithful, sear­ching for freedom, fortune, and adventure. It takes very little to crack our icy shells of blase, blase, and, having cracked, an incredible fountain of love-for-Ufe bursts forth like Old Faithful. Americans are a joy to speak to and hang around with in the springtime.

Nowhere is the evidence of American optimism as clear and strong as it is in the resurgence of the nuclear freeze movement. Last spring it blossomed from out of nowhere, the fruit of seeds that had been dormant for nearly 20 years. There was a magic to this sudden blossoming, sublime and inexplicable. Both the ad­vocates and opponents who followed the movement were struck by its miraculousness, like the sudden ap­pearance of Saint Elmo's Fire. The simple, paranoid minds in Washington could only lamely blame it on the Rtmians. That communist bureaucrats would have the imagination or sensitivity to spark and fuel such miraculous fire is not only absurd, but a kind of blasphemy.

Last spring, I must have talked to 50 people involv­ed in the Ground Zero events all over the country. In one way or another, they all expressed a feeling that the spirit was upon them. The desire to avoid being atomized is a bona fide national consciousness, reflec­ting the serene spirit of the Tao, or, if you prefer, the movin.11: hand of God. It's hardly any wonder that the political rhetoric falls on the ear like a bad joke, a real klunker. When such a wind sweeps across the grass roots of America, politicians can only stand and watch

in fear and awe of a power greater than themselves. The people that I talked to were most often

housewives, farmers, shopkeepers and suburbanites. They almost invariably had families, and represented conservative Middle-America much better than the so­called "moral majority." These are the people that Spiro Agnew called "silent," but they aren•t being silent anymore.

Remember "Middletown USA?" A home economics teacher in Muncie, Indiana, told me, "I just don't want to die that way." That's hardly the rantings of some bleeding-heart intellectual effete snob. The nuclear freeze movement embodie5 the voice of the meek, making sure there is still an earth left for them to inherit.

1 These.folks did not feel comfortable with the word

"movement," and were absolutely mortified by the word .. protest." Although most Ground Zero pro­grams were sponsored by colleges, the faculty I :talked to said the lion's share of the support came from rather bashful members of the community, awkward and embarrassed over their involv~ment. While students displayed a shameful apathy, the simple people of a thousand mid-size college towns stood up to be counted. It reminds me of a comic I saw once. A cowboy had just gone over a cliff on his horse. Reins pulled up tight, he cried "Whoa, damn you, whoa!" Now that's optimism. ·

The student apathy bothered me. I wondered, what is it that these people have that students don't? A number of things er~ my mind. For one, they had the most to lose in such a catastrophe. They were, in fact, expressing the reactionary voice of the status quo. The thought that everything they had worked a lifetime for could go up in flames at a moment's notice disturbed and infuriated them. For another, these were people who had a strong sense of belonging to a community, and in a larger sense, the natioa and the world. They were powered by their sense of being franchised in the human race, a feeling that often eludes young students with heads full of existential gook.

It would have seemed like explanation enough, if it wasn't for my own feeling of rank apathy about The Bomb. My sympathies have always sided with those who would disarm the world, but they are weak, superficial sympathies. Intellecutally, the notion of

radioactive annihilation disturbs me, but when I dig down deep into the pocket of my emotions, I come up.,. empty. It took me a long time to figure out why:

The third, and by far the most important, quality shared by these Americans is memory. Unlike myself and most college students, a great mainstream of nuclear freeze supporters can actually rememQer a world that couldn't destroy itself, even if it wanted to. All of the collective horror of World War II paled in comparison to the horror of the two bombs that put an end to it, although most people were slow to realize it. The world could be bloodied and battered by dynamite, but it couldn't be ended. In the long history of mankind B.T.B.,it was faith in the future that drove the wheels of civilization. In this Year Of The Bomb 37, these are the people who serise that the mere threat of such doom could bring the wheels of civiliza­tion to a grinding halt. Turning on their radios, they heard the voices of children singing "no future, no future," and they were terrified. Having witnessed the change in American psyche, these are the people that recognize nuclear annihilation could come ,. without a single shot being fired.

Zen Buddhists tell a story of a frog in a well. Visited by a frog from the ocean, he asks naively what it is like. The frog from the ocean tries his mightiest to ex­plain the ocean to him. "It's like your well," he says, "only much, much bigger."

"Nothing is bigger than my well," says the frog, perplexed and confused. Try as he might, the frog from the ocean couldn't find the words to describe what was beyond the well-frog's experience.

"Come out of the well, and I'll show you." he sug­gested. So the frog left the well, and they walked down to the ocean.

"Oh, now I see," he said. In the same way, those of us who were born under

the bomb can never know in our hearts the peace of that other world, until those who have lived in such a world lead us by the hand to it. We can never really feel the same burning desire to end this madness, but we can't use our ignorance as an excuse for apathy. Those who remember a healthier America full of • damn-fool dreamers would like to give Us back our ability to look forward and be optimistic. They deserve our faith; they need our help.

New student association will lobby education issues

Siu dent Government

Report

Hello, and good day, eh? Our topic for today is the Colorado State Student

Association. Metro has been working with a core group of about 15 schools trying to make this associa­tion work for our students. Here is a copy of the press release we brought back from our last meeting held at Mesa College in Grand Junction.

"The Students of Colorado announce the formation of the Colorado State Student Association. The pur­pose of the CSSA is to promote and effectively lobby current issues dealing with secondary education in all forms. The organization is open to all students in the State of Colorado, and its target areas include finan- · cial aid, state budgeting, student voter registration

schools in the state of Colorado and unified voter disctmion on areas dealing with education on state and federal issues."

As you can see~ this is going to be a hard-working organization of students for students. The reason I am telling you it is is because in order to achieve all the goals we have set, it will take greater involvement .., from you as students. The next meeting will be held at Lamar Community College in Sterling. We need peo­ple to contact our State Reps, the colleges that h~ve not taken part, and people willing to help stage the following meeting here in Denver.

If you are willing to help out just call me at 629-3253 or 2797.

On another note, I hope your semester is going along well, and you can all hang in there until our spring break. I would also like to wish the baseball team all the best in its coming season.

Come out and watch the baseball team and rugby club play on Saturday March 12.

They only come ,out at night by Jean Hanley

Despite the fact that downtown ~usin~ virtually all close down at 5

p.m., the business of education at the Auraria campus is still going strong, and for night .students, 5 p.m. is just the beginning of their academic day.

Although the Student .Activity Center

is nearly deserted after dark, (only a sprinkling of students with their noses buried in books can be seen in the other­wise empty cafeteria), certain parts of Auraria teem with life.

At UCD, for instance, 65 percent of the studentry, roughly 6,500 students, attends school at night, according to George Burnham, director of admissions

Night students glide to class in South Classroom.

Psych class sails i'1to summer A 40-foot sloop sailing on San Fran­

cisco Bay will be the classroom f<?r a 6-credit course on the psychology of per­sonal growth to be offered by the MSC psychology department next summer.

A 40-hour week of intensive study of ~ concepts iii psychology will precede the

sailing trip. The class will focus on the psychology

of testing personal limits - how people decide what they can or cannot do, or be, or achieve, and· how they can alter

7_ those decisions. •

1 "We will try to use personal ex- · perience to bridge the gap betw~n psychology theories and their practical application," said John Davis of the MSC psychology department, one of the class organizers.

"To understand limit-testing, we will explore theories on the nature of social interaction and the psychology of

groups, some theory about emotions, risk-taking, stress management and the relation between psychology and spirituality," Davis said. ·

There will also be intensive instruc­tion on sailing and navigation skills by William Plywaski, a licensed and ex­perienced ship's captain. Sailing ex­perience is not required for the course, but students must be willing to learn and participate.

Cost for the trip is $450, plus, tuition and the cost of transportation to and from San Francisco.

Applications may be obtained from Davis or Alan Dahmes, in Room 233 of the Science Building.

There will be a meeting for all in­terested people on March 16 at 3:30 p.m. in Room 226 of the Science Build­ing.

and records. "Right after 5 p.m. is our largest

population down here," Burnham said. And, the Towers coffee shop in the

UCD building experiences its heaviest rush on Tuesday and Thursday nights between 5:30 and 7 p.m.; employees said. They said they sell a lot of coffee to students who have trouble staying awake.

MSC offers a significant number of night courses. Ellen Boswell, who works in the MSC Institutional Research Department, calculated that some 11,496 seats are filled in MSC's classrooms at night. The main bui~dings MSC t&es at night are the Art and South Classroom buildings, she said.

The Campus- Recreation Center also comes to life after dark. Anne Clark-, assistant coordinator of campus recrea­tion, said the center receives the heaviest student use at night.

"The racquetl?all courts are jam­packed every night. If students want a night court they have to be 'here at least a half hour in advance of sign up," Clark said. She said the center is often used after hours (9 p.m.) by . in­tramurals, master swim club and the track team.

· "All intramurals start after 6 p.m.," she said. "For a commuter school we have a fairly good turnout."

For the night student, Auraria is a convenient means to pursue his career goals. Generally, students said they feel Aliraria fills their needs. In a recent survey 1 Barbara Barrow, UCO public information director, found these students wanted to "increase the profes­sional capacities of their job and to work in their chosen fields."

Barbara Priest is a full-time paralegal who also maintains a part-time job, and takes 11 hours at UCD at night. Calling herself a "student who has come hack," Priest said with her schedule, school is her only "outside activity." Priest said she plans on graduating with an English degree and then going on to law school.

Frank Reynolds, a civil engineering aide a~ending MSC, said the engineer­ing firm he works for will keep him on when he graduates.

Barbara Eve, a licensed day care mother majoring in psychology at UCD. said she has "no way of getting out dur­ing the ctay." Through UCD's night classes, Eve can be a mother and a stu­dent at the same time. · So, as the business world comes to an end, night students at Auraria can be seen hastily circling the parking lots in search of a parking place; shoving coins into parking meters and hurriedly walk­ing to their classes to begin the business of being a student. 0

"An honest understanding of the development of civilization, and the building of a society involves understan­ding the attitudes of all participants," she continued. "History is more than dates, more than battles, more than laws - it's the way people live, and a day-to-day understanding of that."

Different fields of study are being af­fected. The feminist movement has brought new areas to the attention of the general public, Thomas said.

Billi Arlene Grant thinks Women's History Week points to the importance of women in our society, especially minority women. Her recent book, Black Women of the West: Success in · the Workplace, was written to give a historical sue~ background.

Sumiko Hennesey believes the week will "raise consciousness for women and help them to be in the mainstream of the work force COII\peting with men."

Ann Gourley said that in order to understand the present and the future it is necessary to understand the past -and 'most people don't.

And Solema Neary perceives women as a part of history that has not been recognized.

"I think women have been trying for generations to be recognized," she said. "So many have accomplished so much and they have been taken for granted."

Grant believes black women are in­spired by those who have preceeded them, mothers and grandmothers who sacrificed and succeeded.

Solema Neary explained that she , belon~ to the passive generation.

"Whatever happened was God's will and we didn't question it," she said. "Our security was a husband who work­ed. But in the '60s when women had to get out and work, that changed everything.

"Chicana women rebelled in the '60s - that's when it started," she explained. "They would start crying for justice just like any minorio/ when mistreated. '

"But the-generation now is not radical like in the '60s, they're blending in; young Chicanas are becoming more educated and ~itting in."

Ann Gourley stressed the loss rather than the change of a lifestyle.

"In the past quite a few of our societies were matriarchal," Gourley said. "There was always a lot of respect for the female. Time and the land wue eliminated that way of life; the respect and esteem of the female was gone. Our whole society had been taken away."

Hennesey came to this country 20 years ago, and even then there was a tremendous restriction: the prejudicial discrimination against the working woman.

"In 20 years I have seen a great deal of change," Hennesey said. "We have made tremendous gains since the late '60s. I. woman can now work in management, be an executive."

But do women see themselves dif­ferently?

Grant believes black women have more self-confidence, are more asserti\re and have a greater determination to move ahead. The black woman is will-

ing to study to better her job oppor­tunities.

The Native American woman, in• some ways, does not see herself dif­ferently. Her main job has always been to see that the family is provided for, ac­cording to Gourley. And it is still of primary importance to keep the family together, to teach the children the cultural traditions and basic moral values.

"Most of the Indian women I know work, but are very protective of their children and family," Gourley said. "We're also very dependent on our ex­tended family who are always there for emotional and moral support - it's a basic type of reaction that's always been there. Women have had a very strong role and still do."

Thomas thinks women need to be in­creasingly political and demand to assume positions of political leadership. / They need to keep their sites fixed on the top.

"I don't see enough women to help other women get ahead," she said.

Grant believes women need to register to vote in various elections. Also, there are some black women, according to Grant, who are militant and who feel they haven't been treated well, and therefore pass on the favor.

"They need to be less militant and more assertive in everyday life," she said.

She also believes that beauty is a criteria to succeed in this country.

"Each woman should develop inner beauty. rm tired of seeing beautiful women get the accolades when capable · women get passed over," Gr.ant said.

Ann Gourley points to others for , change.

"Changes I see don't come from the Native American side, they come from the other side of the fence," she said.

"It has to do with people who write history books; we need to change periple's ideas from the beginning." '

"In recent years historians have made considerable headway in correcting the simplistic image of women embedded in popular cultures. Spurred by the chang­ing climate of 91>inion concerning woman's role in society, feminist scholars have mounted an impressive research effort designed to ferret out the salient facts of American woman's lives, past and present."

,... . the two MSC All-American indoor track competitors, had a lot to say about the NAIA nationals in which over 90 teams were represented. The meet will be aired March 12 on the US Network cable TV program.

It was no surprise when Blueback, MSC's first All-America track honoree, brought home hi$ second national inter­collegiate award after placing first in his preliminary heat and entering the finals with the fourth fastest time in the mile.

"I changed my strategy in the finals," he said. "I went out hard and died. I had nothing left in the last lap."

Liese, who earned his first All­America title by placing fourth ·in the two-mile competition at the age of 22, js the oldest and most outspoken member of the indoor track team because he is more informed about the athletic budget than any other MSC athlete and makes a point of voicing his opinion.

"The whole athletic budget is a joke for a school this size," he explained. "We get $2,400 for five sports, (cross­country, men's indoor track, men's out­door track), and all of them have com­peted on a national level. How many other MSC sports teams, other than volleyball, can' say_ that?"

MSC's swim team suffered a setback last week when the NCAA Board of Eligibility ruled MSC diver Jeff Smith ineligible for the NCAA championships in May.

Smith, who won first place in both the one-meter and three-meter divirtg in the Intermountain Swim League finals two weeks ago, is not eligible because of an NCAA rule which states that an athlete must "fulfill a residence requirement of one full year."

Smith's problem stems from the fact

that he attended a four-year institution prior to enrolling at MSC.

Athletic Director Bill Helman, who has worked hard in trying to find Smith a loophole, explains that, "The NCAA is very ~trict in enforcing their rules. They let him dive during the season, but not in the championships."

Helman also noted that, "Our dual association with both the NCAA and the NAIA gives us a lot of flexibility, but oc­casionally can hurt us with something like this."

Tony Patino He had enough left to place third, though, which earned him national recognition. Only the top six finishers in any event become All-Aµiericans.

~iese, like Blueback, also gives Janssen thanks for his ability.

"I owe all of my success to my coach," he said, "Brian has built this program from nothing to a spectacle. This is Brian's third year and last year was the first time anyone from the track team ever went to nationals. He's done an awesome job with such a limited budget."~

CCD·A to sponsor ·Spring Singles Symposium

. '

Blueback gives his coaches at Idaho State University and MSC responsibility for his success.

"I tiad better coaching out of high school," he said, "I was sorry in high school, except for Denver, where I became the city champion in 1979 in cross-country and went to state, where I led through the first mile and died. I finished 12th in state my senior year in track."

He also gives MSC coach Brian Jarmen responsibility for his being in school.

"My coach is responsible for getting me into school," he said. "I met him one summer during a roadrace and it went on from there."

Blueback is definitely moving on and looking forward to his future.

"One of my goals is to try and run in the National Spring Festival July 23 and 24, in Colorado Springs," he said. ''I'm going to try to go to California or someplace that has a big meet just to try. to get some national recognition." '

Liese, "the blessed runner," is quite dif-

Liese also voiced an opinion about support that many MSC coaches would -pat him on the back for saying.

"I think that the sports teams at Metro need more community and school sup­port," Liese said.

Coach Betty Krueger and MSC will be conducting an open audition basketball day March 27, from 9 a .m. to 3 p.m. in the Auraria gym.

The purpose of this event is to inform prospective students about the MSC women's basketball program, the academic opportunities at MSC, and to evaluate prospective players for pur­poses of distributing scholarships. .

Interested women should contact Krueger at 629-3145 for more informa­tion.

The art of successful singlehood will be explored at the Spring Singles Sym­posium, Saturday, March 12, at the · Auraria Higher Education Center. Sponsoring the day event is the Auraria Campus of the Community College of Denver. The $30 registration fee covers breakfast, lunch, wine-and-cheese reception and choice 'of three workshops.

Featured speaker for this symposium is Robert A. Gregg, whose topic will be "Developing Successful Relationships as a Single Adult." He is currently a con­sultant to a large private mental health agency and a large single adult organization, both in Denver.

Alllong the topics for the Singles Sym­posium are money management, finan­cial planning, video dating, fifties and western dance styles, as well as several worksho..ps on the psychology of rela­tionships in the eighties.

Championships, which will be hosted by MSC in the Auraria gym March 10-12, will disrupt classes, athletic practices and the campus recreation schedule.

Students for Hart meet Students from seven Colorado cam-

. puses met at the University Memorial Center in Boulder Friday to formally announce the formation of Students for Hart committees.

R~resentatives from MSC, CSU, UNC, CC, DU, Ft. Lewis ~d CU-were present. Steven Shepherd, chairman of the Student Affairs Committee, represented MSC.

The ·meeting began shortly ~r ·9 a.m. when a letter from Gary Hart was read to the approximately 30 people pre­sent.

In his letter, Hart said he plans to run a people-oriented, decentralized cam­paign.

"This campaign will be a vehicle to explore change, to educate, to engage the wealth of current and future American talent in the development of alternative policies and proposals," Hart said.

Students for Hart committees on 103 campuses in 33 states read Hart's letter.

Paul Doyle, a student representative for CU, said the nationwide support for Hart springs from his grim-roots tradi­tions and his devotion to John Kennedy's statement that members of government

should "not be rivals for power but part­ners for progress."

"We ... support an individual who is seriol;lS about progress," Doyle said. "We support Gary Hart because he sup­ports us."

Doyle said Hart's campaign would not accept donations from political action committees, but would instead rely on the strength of the people who sup­ported him.

The meeting dealt with how to get students involved with the Hart cam­paign. Eric M~. the DU represen­tative, suggested showing the movie "Bedtime for Bonzo," starring Ronald Reagan.

Other proposals included a possible bike race or marathon to be held later in the campaign, and rallies and fund raisers on the separate campuses.

Paul Shamon, another CU represen­tative, said that fund rallies at CU should begin within a month.

Here at MSC, Shepherd said plans for "Bedtime for Bonzo" are already in mo­tion. A table will be set up in the Stu­dent Center to allow students a chance to stop and see what Students for Hart plans to do.
