Netzel .resigns MSC to WOrk with Trustees . .

by Sal Ruibal The former acting president of

Metropolitan State College re­signed last week from his pqsition as Vice-Presicfent for Academic Affairs.

Dr. Richard Netzel, who served as Acting President from August 1978 to June 1979, said his resig­nation would have "a positive ef­fect" on MSC.

"It will give President Macin­tyre the opportunity to begin fresh with a new line organization ... new faces without the biases and historical baggage a continuing vice-president would have,'' Net.:. zel said.

l'{etzel's resignation will be ef­fective Oct. 1. After that time he will ''be on loan'' to the Trustees of the Consortium of State Colleges in Colorado. MSC and three other state colleges are mem­bers of the Consortium.

Netzel's tenure as Acting Presi­dent was mar_ked by a growing movement towards merger with the University of Colorado-Den­ver, a move Netzel vehemently op­posed.

Net'Zel's successor, Dr. Donald J. Macintyre, has been accused of

compromising on the merger is­sue, but in an interview last week, Netzel said those criticisms are un­fair.

"Dr. Macintyre is in -a difficult position," Netzel said. "One has the choice of 'stonewalling' or co­operating with those who have the power. I don't know what policy I would have followed. A year ago I made a talk before the Interim Committee on Higher Education of the state legislature. At that I said Auraria was not a mess. The extent to which we were required to cooperate was not great.

"I think Auraria is now in a complete mess," he said. "We have been required to do consider­ably more than is appropriate un­der the Auraria concept.

NeWS Handicapped vet fights for access

The wheels of change move slowly, but when those changes involve a federal agency, the state legislature, tight budgets and a reluctant bureaucracy, the move­ment can be infinitesimal. Such is the case with Billy Tilmon and the right of Jhe handicapped to an education.

MSC's response to the original 1978 complaint stated that "it is possible that at a specific time a trash contaiQer was · blocking a particular restroom doorway . .. however, this is not the regular loca-

AHEC officials said last week that wall-hung trash receptacles have been or­dered, but are not yet installed.

Almost a year ago, MSC student •••••••••••••••••••••••••••• Billy Tilmon filed a complaint with the Office for Civil Rights alleging that Metropolitan State College discriminates against wheelchair users by providing educational services and other activities in buildings that are inaccessible .

In August 1979, the Office for Civil Rights upheld Tilmon 's complq_i'l_t in six of the nine cited areas. MSC was directed to commit itself in writing by August 20 that it would secure th~ corrections of the deficiencies.

MSC was also required to stale that the six deficiencies would be corr«ted by September 20, -1979. On that date, Tilmon and a photographer from THE METROPOLITAN toured the complaint sil.es to verify that the correctiolfS had in­deed been made.

A request for funds to build the ramp was included in the 1979-80 Capital Construction Budget Request submitted to the Colorado Joint Budget Commit­tee. The request was denied by the com­mittee.

Student pays $150 ''for all t~e times I've parked without paying"

by Joan Conrow

Diogenes, the ancient philosopher, spent a good deal of his life wandering the streets of Athens looking for an honest man. Had the old Greek wandered onto the Auraria campus his search would have ended at the University of Colorado at Denver.

A UCD student, who parked on campus without paying for the last two years, surprised Auraria Parking Direc­tor Ben Walton with a $150 restitution check last week.

''The money was not for fines or old tickets, but for all the times I've parked without paying," said Scott Engles, a graduate student in Electrical Engineering.

"I would occasionally buy a ticket, and kept quite a few of the)ll on my dash. It was easy to get away with it, but I

Once inside the library (which in it­self was a difficult task due to the new security devices installed at the entrance and exit) Tilmon wheeled to the first floor men's restroom. The restroom was cited for having a door that requires an

always wondered if it was reaJly right,'' he said.

Engles said he had known for some time he could continue to get away with .it, but strongly felt he should make some sort of restitution. But, every time he fig­ured out how much he owed, it was a siz­able sum.

"I wondered if maybe I shouldn't do something better with the money, such as give it to the church, or an organization that does work with children," said Engles. "But, the Lord kept saying there was no getting around it; I had to give the money to where it belonged."

A talk with a Christian friend rein­forced Engles' feelings that he needed to make amends.

"My friend was honest and open, and said what I was doing was wrong, which I knew," explained Engles. "The discussion with him was a catalyst. When excessive amount of pressure to open, a real obst(\cle to wheelchair users with im­paired arm movement. The door also swings in only one direction, making exit impossible without assistance.

The door was still difficult to open and still swings in one direction only. Wheelchair users attempting to exit are subject to collisions with entering users.

A work order to correct the situation was requested, but again, the thirty day limit has passed.

When Tilmon attempted to leave the library, he was required to perform a

Engles quickly received a letter from Walton, who thanked him and explained how the money from parking revenues was used towards maintenance, bond re­payment and salaries.

place a ramp and rail at the rear entrance. From the "Mere," Tilmon made his

way carefully through the large flagstones that serve as sidewalks and patios in the Ninth Street Historic Park area. Tilmon pointed out that such areas are difficult for wheelchair users to negotiate because the stones are not flat and there are many drop-offs and holes. Wheelchair users with spastic problems are especially hard hit by such areas. "Even a tiny pebble can overturn a wheelchair," Tilmon said.

As Tilmon, a Viet Nam-era veteran, moved down Ninth Street, he spoke about his attempt to secure a part-time job from the MSC Office of Veteran!> Af­fairs: "They told me I couldn't work there because there was no way I could get into the building." ~

The 'Mere ': Voluntary compliance

This was not · the first time Tilmon had encountered difficulty in his dealings with the Veterans Office.

Editorial RTDmall: 80' s concept, 70's problems

by Frank Mullen J

The Regional Transportation District is pleading innocent to the charge they promised the public an inno­vative Downtown Mall and will soon deliver a ghost of the dream.

Recently the media scolded RTD for their plans to allow cross-traffic through the 16th Street Transit­way / Mall and for contracting to provide diesel shuttle vehicles instead of the promised pollution-free buses. RTD replied shutting off the mall to cross-traffic would effectively cut the downtown area in half and the mall was never designed to be totally traffic-free. As for the buses, RTD said _the technology does not exist to build an electric vehicle which would provide the same service as its diesel counterpart. RTD said they will be glad to convert the shuttles when a new type of battery is de­veloped, although they have no funds available to do so. It is likely the Vehicles will be ready for retiremerrt be­fore a new type of battery can be developed and in­stalled.

The critics are wrong to accuse RTD of "bait and switch" tactics. RTD never promised Denver a pedes­trian utopia - the cross-traffic provision was in the plan all along - and although officials paid lip service to electric vehicles, RTD's budget locked them into con­ventional shuttles.

If you set out to buy a car with a $200 \>udget, you will wind up with a 1965 Chevy. If you set out to buy 35 shuttle buses with a $4 million budget, you will wind up with internal combustion engines.

The concept of a pedestrian mall which would re­vitalize the downtown area while combatting pollution and the energy crunch is a good dream. Perhaps someone. will build one someday. Denver woulc;l have been a good place to try, but through a lack of money or imagination RTD missed its chance to be truly innova­tive.

Denver is famous for shopping innovations. When Temple Buell built the Cherry Creek Shopping Center in 1949 it was the· first of its kind in the country. Business-

Letters Dear Mr. Editor,

The Boycott of Nestle products which is being done in the name of morality and the many infants in the Third World countries who have died from formula feeding, has had its effect. According to the Infant For­mula Action Coalition (INF ACT), the Nestle Company has "announced a halt to all consumer advertising of in­fant formula products in the developing countries."

Unfortunately this is only a change in strategy. _ Nestle has not conceded the moral issue of killing babies, but instead calls the boycott a problem in public relations.

Here in the homeland they have "stepped up adver­tising . . . for Nestle chocolate, Llbbys canned goods, Stouffer's frozen foods and other· consu1;11er goods." They've even gone so far as to send letters to religious leaders claiming that their Third World promotion of inf ant formula is 'charitable' and 'educational.'

Accordingly, Nestle's promotion strategy in the Third World has undergone a shift from consumer tar­geting to the doctors and hospitals who deal with the mothers. "Giving gifts to influence doctors and hospital workers to recommend Nestle formula products ... ap­pears to be rapidly expanding." One hospital admini­strator caught in the paradox of 'If you don't, someone else will,' said, "It is a very corrupting influence. You are always aware that you could have virtually anything you ask for."

This isn't just another case of materialism vs. moral virtue. The death of human infants makes this a terminal case; and yet one where you and I have had, and may continue to have effect in slowing and stopping

, the deathprocess. " ~ ... _ ·. ·. . .... . . - . .T.._O_._. .. '-·--

"Now, doesn't that improve your outlook on things?" . men throughout the nation liked the concept of the pedestrian mall surrounded by parking areas. Thousan­ds of copies soon sprung up from Maille to southern California.

Hopefully, when the RTD mall is complete, of­ficials from other cities will examine the project (and its shortcomings) and will return to their home cities to come up with something truly innovative for their downtown.areas. Denverites however, will have to settle for the mall of the 1980s complete with the pollution, traffic, and energy problems of the 1970s.

INF ACT is involved with both the world-wide community effort and the legislature here in the U.S. They need the support of the increasing pressure from the boycott and letters and cards written to your Congresspersons and Senators.

Dear Editor,

Donald Gaeddert Student at MSC

Would you please run an article on the Auraria Dept. of Public Safety? There seems to be a lot of con­fusion as to whether the officers are police or security guards.

I hav~ been told that they send their officers to the state police academy in Golden. If that is true, then I doubt iftbey are security guards.

And besides, it says Police on their patrol cars. I hope you can clear this problem up for the stu­

dents and faculty on campus. Hardly anyone seems to know one way or the other.

Newspapers are read as much for the comics as for the news; more people wat­ch television situation comedies than watch the educational channel's specials; and certainly fast food chains are ap­preciated by more people than ever eat in the expensive, elite restaurants of any metropolis.

You can learn a lot about a society by studying its favorite attractions, from movies to books to bumper stickers, from restaurants to sports, from advertising to music. By studying, in other words, the popular culture.

American Culture is a proposed minor in the MSC history department which will, if approved, be available this spring semester as a formalized study of American popuJar (pop) culture.

"What had more effect on the lives of our generation," asked 28-year-old Dr. Charles Dobbs of MSC's history department, "Sergeant Pepper or John­son's intervention in the Dominican Republic in 1965?"

Dobbs adds: "If Broncomania is so important to people, shouldn't we study it, and find out about its implications?"

Currently, the MSC history depart­ment offers a course which has a changing title, but which always deals with American popular culture. To date, History 150 has included Sports in America, Rock Music, and the Fabulous Fifties. This spring it will add Movies and ·American Culture.

The attendance records in these classes and a growing awareness in the academic community of the need to study popular cµlture, have prompted the MSC history department to formulate and seek approval for its American Cultµ re minor.

"Now there is an academic justification for it,'' Dobbs said. "Bowl­ing Green State (University) has a Ph.D. in Popular Culture, and several schools offer master programs."

The program is us-eful -to students majoring in mass marketing, journalism, political science, behavorial psychology, sociology and urban ~udies.

"In giving a broad background into current trends in popular culture, fads, and social changes and what they mean," Dobbs said, "I can't think of any minor that could be more beneficial ... "

Dr. Phillip Boxer, Dean of the School of Liberal Arts, said, "I think the course is an attempt to enlarge the oppor­tunity of the students to get a broader view o.f the -American society - to serve the needs of the students and the com­munity.

"It (popular culture studies) takes traditional courses and expands them,'' he said. "The&e will be very solid courses

.. . don't let th~ !}ames fool you." 'Fhe reqmrements for the minor at

MSC will be a total of 21 credit hours in the history department, including American History II (History 122), History 150 (which will be changed to an introduction to American popular culture), an upper division popular culture seminar requiring a paper or project on any popular culture topic of the student's choice, and 12 additional credit hours that center on pop culture. Of the 21 hours, 12 must be upper division courses.

The department will offer upper division courses in Rock Music in America, Sports in America, Movies and American Culture, Ethnicity (with a changing title and focus group each semester), and hopes to add Social History of America, Folklore, and indi­vidual media courses, such as radio and television, according to Dobbs.

"If they're movie freaks, they could do a paper on that," Dobbs said of the seminar classes. "If they're bar freaks, fine, let them go and study the cultural aspects of bars ... it can be on any topic of popular culture they.like."

He said two courses currently offer. ed at MSC, American West and American Civilization, can be applied toward the new minor, "because they are thematic .. . and taught in a social context."

Students who have already taken the lower division MSC course, History 150, may make arrangements tO count those credits toward a minor in American Culture.

"In terms of making Metro a leader in urban education - and isn't that our job? - this is about as relevant as you can get," Dobbs said.

"The next step after the minor is ap­proved," Dobbs said, "is to go for a governmental grant to set up an interde­partmental major ... I think this has potential - at least in an urban in­stitution - to be our biggest draw."

Several departments at MSC currently teach courses that could easily be tied into an interdepartmental major in American Culture: History of Jazz (Music); Detective Novel (English); Con­temporary Issues (Journalism); Politics and Mass Media (Political Science), and courses in Urban Studies and Law Enfor­cement.

"I would think that every depar­tment would have a course or courses that would fit into this major," Dobbs said.

ln the meantime, the American Culture Minor in History must only pass th<; curriculum committee before it is put on the book~ . Passage by the committee seems assured, sources told THE METROPOLITAN. .

Old Saint Liz: by Karen Breslin

Amid Auraria's functional brick and glass classroom buildings St. Elizabeth's Church is a stately reminder of the past.

This month marks the lOOth anniver­sary of the parish. The current church, a national landmark, was built in 1898. A smaller, brick church built in 1879 served the parish until 1890 when it was razed to make way for the new church and school.

German miners who headed west with the discovery of gold in 1858 foun­ded the parish. Mining camps sprung up throughout the area, including one named Auraria, which later merged with Denver City. The Germans settled along Cherry Creek according to Father Declan Madden, who compiled a short history of St. Elizabeth's.

The Germans were given permission to start a new Catholic parish by Bishop Joseph Machebeuf. A German speaking priest was sent in and given the job of constructing a church. The. Germans in­tended to make St. Elizabeth's an exclu­sively German parish. However, too few Germans lived in the area making it necessary to incJude other Catholics, who were mostly Irish.

.:L c :;, u. .5

The two factions were unable to coexist peacefully. The language and cul­tural barriers forced the parish to split in two, with separate priests and mass times for both. The arrangement was unsuc­cessful. Denver miller J .K. Mullen do­nated his land at Tenth Street and W. Colfax and work began on a separate church for the Irish. The Church, St. Leo Ci>

the Great, stood until 1965 when it was a; razed to make way for the Auraria Day ~ Care Center. ..._....;._,_

~A century of growth and charige ' ,

The arrival of Father Francis Koch in 1887 marked the beginning of St. Elizabeth's growth. A school, convent, orphanage and monastery were built, financed by contributions solicited by Fa­ther Koch. Construction began on the church in 1893 and the present building was completed in 1898.

The church, constructed out of lava rock quarried in Castle Rock, cost $43,000. In 1902 the church was conse­crated, a ceremony permitted only when a religious structure is free from debt. The Denver Times called it "the most im­pressive Catholic ceremony ever per­formed in Colorado."

The calm of the parish was shattered in 1908. In 1907 Father Leo Heinrichs came to St. Elizabeth's as pastor. On February 23, 1908, the priest was killed while distributing Communion at a morning mass. Giuseppe Alia, a 56-year­old Sicilian, was convicted of shooting the priest. . ·

The suspect was caught before he fled the church. A mob gathered on the parish steps as Alia was taken into custody. According to The Denver Catholic Register, ''Alia was threatened many times, and the police rushed him from jail to jail to save hiin from the

· mobs."

The public funeral procession, the largest seen in Denver up to that time, followed the body to Union Station · where it was sent to New Jersey. Charges of a socialist plot against the Catholic Church spread throughout the country wlien it became known that Alia was an avowed Socialist and anarchist. In a statement made to the Rocky Mountain News Alia said he had "killed the wrong priest." The suspect refused to elaborate on his statement or provide a motiye. Socialists throughout the nation were questioned by police.

The fears of a leftist plot against the Catholic Church in Denver vanished when there were no further violent inci­dents. Calm returned to the German parish as the new century brought more Catholics into the Auraria community.

Many of the new Catholics were Chicanos, and although they shared their religion with the Germans, Italians and Irish, racial and cultural differences among the nationalities forced them apart. J .K. Mullen, miller and church builder, donated land and $50,000 to build another church - St. Cajetan's -at the corner of Ninth and Lawrence Streets. By the late 1920s Auraria boasted three Catholk churches within a three block area.

The thirties brought structural changes to St. Elizabeth's. The monastery connecting the church and school was torn down and rebuilt with contributions from May Bonfils Stanton.

Graqually · the neighborhood began to decline from middle-class homes to low income dwellings, warehouses. and small plants, Father Madden said. He at­tributed the decline to age; the small frame houses could not withstand the ele­ments. Nonetheless, St. Elizabeth's remained a vital, growing parish. A major remodeling of the church took place in 1968, and plans called for .St. Elizabeth's to fit harmoniously in the campus atmosphere. St. Elizabeth's school was torn down to make room for the St. Francis Interfaith ·center.

Today, Father Madden said, the parish is sustained by students, residents

· of the area, and relatives of former parishioners.

St. Elizabeth's parish is a vivid example of change. Its continued existen­ce is.a tribute to the men and women who took pride in their community, their religion and their church. -

Street near church niay be renamed The small section of Champa and

11th Streets which cuts through the east side of the campus may soon be renamed St. Francis Street if the city grants the re­quest of Father John Ullrich of St. Eliza­beth's parisll.

Ullrich told the Auraria Board Sept. 10 the name s~ould be 'Changed to elimi-

nate the confusion of "two Champa Streets." He said the executives of the three schools had no objection to the suggestion and be is talking to city of­ficials concerning the change.

The Board voted to support the change and in a separate action voted to go on record in support of preserving the view of St. Elizabeth's from the east side

of the campus. Currently St. Elizabeth's, the St.

Francis Interfaith Center and Metropoli­tan State College have addresses on that part of 11th Street. MSC Pi'esident I Donald Mcintyre said he bad no objec­tion to the name-change. "After all,'' he said, "I came here from San Francisco." ·

While downtown merchants general­ly favor the RTD Transitway/ Mall, its actual effect on improving business in the city's core is a matter of speculation ..

Downtown Denver, Inc., an organi­zation that represents the banking, real estate, retail and planning sectors of downtown, is enthusiastic about the mall, and has supported the present design sin­ce its conception.

"At the public hearing in April, not one voice was raised against the mall,' ' said Dana Crawford, Vice President of Downtown Denver, Inc. "There will be some discomfort for some, because cer­tain people are often resistant to change, but in the long pull, there is an extremely important first step for improving the quality of downtown Denver.' '

Crawford feels the mall will have a "tremendous" effect on sales, and will act as a catalyst that could bring about other private and public improvements in the downtown area.

William Weil, President of Fashion Bar, said although the mall may be an aesthetic asset to the downtown area, it would not necessarily improve sales.

"People will continue to frequent shopping centers in suburban areas where they have a large assortment of stores and can shop at night. The downtown stores do not offer this advantage, and parking is more of a problem downtown."

Crawford said Denver has an excess

of retail space as it is, and retailers will have to take steps to provide something better and different to increase their sales.

"This is an extremely competitive business. Downtown has the opportunity to offer more originality and quality. It is .the center of commerce, culture and government, and can be the center for ex­citing retail life for the community," Crawford said.

· Ronald Ruskin, chairman of May D&Fagreed.

"The 16th Street Mall could awaken interest in the downtown area and attract more businesses and developers," he said. "The mall will be something new and different. It will be convenient to reach by bus, and I feel it will generally attract more people downtown."

Neil Myets, General Manager of J .C. Penney's, supports the mall, but he was not as optimistic as Ruskin. ~

"We'll just have to wait and see," he ir said. "As more residential and office .E space is developed, there will necessarily 6 be more people in the downtown area. Leo's Place: endangered species.

Rights had strong words about MSC locating the Veterans Office on Ninth Street. The final OCC report states: "Al-· though accessible facilities were available, MSC chose to locate -.th_e Veterans Affairs Office in an inaccessible facility in the Ninth Street Historical Park. For this reason, AHEC asserts MSC is responsible for this particular ac­cessibility problem . . . (AHEC) will iden­tify an accessible building of comparable size and will direct relocation unless MSC remedies the situation voluntarily."

In October, the OVA will be moved to t~e MSC Administration Building, more than a year since the problem was identified by Tilmoh and probably years since MSC, AHEC and the OVA were aware df its existence.

Tilmon had also filed complaints eoncerning the width of handicap permit parking places, but the existing areas were built to specifications in effect at the time of construction. AHEC is spending almost $3000 to bring the spaces up to . current standards.

In a memo to AHEC Executive Director Jerry Wartgow, Parking Direc­tor Ben Walton said "the long range plan i_s to paint a three foot striped area . for wheelchair users in each of the existing handicapped spaces . . . (and) to make economically feasible curb cuts where needed in handicapped areas in order to reduce the distance people in wheelchairs will have to move behind parked cars. This work is to be completed in late i;:all."

Money from the Parking Capital Construction Reserve Fund will be osed to pay for the modifications.

While the six projects are in various states of c~mpliancc, . many more ob­structions on the Auraria Campus have not been addressed. As part of his 1978 complaint, Tilmon submitted an AHEC report that listed over fifty areas of com­plaint. The Office for Civil Rights did not address those issues because they were not specifically identified in the text and photos 1 contained in the complamt against MSC.

Two fellowships available In order to increase the represen­

tation of minorities among those who . hold doctorates in humanities and social sciences, the Committee on Institutional Cooperation has established two fellowship programs. They will provide 25 two year fellowships in social sciences a nd 10 in humanities fo r the 1980-81 academic year.

as Lionel Hampton, Buddy Rich, Danny Brubeck and Carly Simon, this is Sussman's first attempt at writing and performing his own pieces. Sussman shouid also be credited with assembling two horn men and a rhythm section that are first rate.

The quintet's overall sound is reminiscent of Keith Jarrett's ensemble work. An underlying piano theme, a rambling bass line and poly-rhytµmic trap work set the stage for winding sax solos and Sussman's own forays into spontaneity. His solos are denser than Jarrett ' s, with tangential, off-key har­monies that bely a McCoy Tyner influen­ce. These outside influences are few and far between, though, as much of Sussman's expression carries his own per­sonal stamp - an introspective mood brimming with optimism and just a hint of mystery.

The compositions are cleanly scored to provide a wide-open feel, yet are based on careful construction. Trum­peter Tom Harrell burns through his time-slots with a definite Freddie Hub­bard taint, but with far more restraint and discipline. Larry Schneider is a forging sax player whose developments are a joy to follow.

Holy, holy, holy-MOnty . Python's 'Brian' is okay -'

I by Sal Ruibal

MONTY PYTHON'S "LIFE OF BRI­AN". Starring and written by Graham Chapman, John Cleese, Terry Gilliadl, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, and Michael Pa­lin. Directed by Terry Jones. Produced by John Goldstone. At the Century 21.

Jesus, what a movie! Monty Python's Life of Brian has

been called "a vicious attack on Judaism and the Bible, and a cruel mockery of the religious feelings of Christians as well."

True enough. With a come-on like that, you know it has to be good. Well, yes and no.

Yes, it is funny most of the time. Many scenes are classics of Pythonic humor, that blend of horrendous puns and visual debauchery.

In one memorable 1scene, the inept

· hero, Brian (Graham Chapman), is sent on a midnight mission by a psuedo-intel­lectual band of revolutionaries called the Judean Peoples Front.

While painting "Romans G~ Home" on the walls of Pontius Pilate's palace, Brian is confronted by a Roman Centurion. Instead of arresting Brian, he begins to berate the would-be revolutionary about Brian's lousy use of Latin. The guard forces Brian lo conju­gate the sentence properly, then order~ him to write it one hundred times, or "I'll cut your balls off!"

Brian completes the task by dawn, incurring the wrath of the Romans and the admiration of the revolutionaries.

Like most Python projects, this film is light on plot, heavy on the action. The

Teresa Numa ·was born into a family of nine, had a hard-hitting father and was ,.thrown out of the house at the tender age of fourteen. That she didn't become a vicious, hardened criminal is a surprise. Teresa is a victim of circumstance, but with the proverbial heart of gold and as harmless as a bird.

Teresa the Thief chronicles the true story of Teresa Numa. Set in Fascist ' taly, the film follows Teresa from age

· twenty to forty as she trys to fend for her­self. She steals more for want of food than anything else and that she doesn' t get a job (the idea of it never enters her head) is more an indictment on Fascist It~y. where it seems no one puts in an

"honest day's work. She becomes involved through a

close group of friends at a pool hall. Together. with two other women, the . "Shanghai sisters," they steal a flamingo from the zoo and wait days for it to cook. Finally they go big-time and Teresa

Brian multiple chase scenes, a bizarre UFO se­quence, gladiators, lisping Romans, naked bodies, and racous crowd scenes

..are all individually funny, but the total effect leaves the movie-goer longing for something with substance.

This has always been a problem with the Pythons. Their previous feature film, In Search of the Holy Grail, utilized a more complex plot design with extensive use of parallel construction, allowing for

.J.gi-eater diversity of characters . Neverthe­less, the film hit a dead end and the

and lowers the goods to the sisters below -surrounded by police. Teresa escapes and hears from her eloped husband in Sicily. She goes to meet him and enjoys "the most beautiful three days of my life'' until Allied shells begin landing on the beach around them.

The film goes on like this - densely woven highlights of Teresa's life adven­tures. She lands in jail three times, the last one being the most sobering. Teresa is a woman living day-to-day and is never really sure why she is happy when she is. And sure enough, like her mother told her, something bad always happens to her when she is happy.

Without question, Teresa the Thief goes somewhere because of the riveting performance by veteran actress Monica Vitti. Most welcome is that Vitti never allows any pity for our heroine, because Teresa gets into her messes in spite of herself. Though stunningly beautiful, Vitti has enough sides to her as an ac­tress to execute the role with profound authority.

More interestingly, the film marks the debut of Carlo DiPalma as a director. As a cinematographer, he has worked for Antonioni in Blow-Up and Red Desert as

Pythons took the easy way out. In Brian, the humorous effect of

having the same six actors play multiple roles in a fairly straight-line plot causes confusion and eventually, boredom. Many times ()Illy a costume change is used to differentiate between characters."

Brian's final scene, however, does not leave the viewer hanging, but manages to redeem (no pun intended) some of the plot's shortcomings. I won't got into the details, but it's a real bad taste toe tapper.

MSC kickers s~ash BYU, Ottawa Spikers drop season opener

MSC defeated Brigham Young University 3-2, Ottawa University 1-0 and dropped a 3-0 decision to the Air Force Academy in soccer action this past week, to bring their season record to five wins and three losses.

-On Sunday MSC blanked the visiting Ottawa University 1-0 as goalie Marcus Motte was credited with the shut­out. The winning goal was scored by halfback Dennis Daly on a deep pena1ty shot midway through the second half while playing one man down. Motte

helped his own cause by blocking several OU penalty attempts throughout the game.

-On Saturday last, Vic Stump's.two goal performance led the Roadrunners to a 3-2 win over the highly regarded BYU Palefaces. Stump scored on a free kick and on a header shot set up perfectly by forward Tom Ipson. Goalie Marcus Mot­te, playing for the injured Ed Clark, preserved the win for Metro by gathering in a Paleface penalty shot late in the game. George Fekete slammed home the

third goal for Metro to provide the margin of victory:

-The Air Force Academy shut out Metro 3-0 on September 15th down in the Springs as Zoomie goalie Steve Canyon earned the shutout.

-The Roadrunner Soccer Club blasted Bible Baptist 11-0 Sept. 22 evening at the Broomfield- Recreation Center. Forward Tom Sutton led the jihad with a double hat trick (six scores). The club continued to remain undefeated with an 1-0-1 season mark.

Pop culture continued from page 7 ·

"Their big question," Dobbs said, "is does it require new faculty or resour­ces. No, it doesn't. As a matter of fact, it allows us to make better use of our current resources."

The MSC history department is now a member of. the Popular Culture Association of America which includes among its 1400 members, Bowling Green State University, Michigan State Univer­sity, Oklahoma State University, the University of Delaware, and Rutgers University. MSC is the only member college in the Rocky Mountain region.

As many as 1,000 popular culture courses are taught around the country in a dozen different departments of at least 500 institutions. For example, North Carolina State's journalism staff teaches Mass Media· and American Popular Culture; the Humanities department at Chicago offers Literature and Popular Culture; Rice University teaches Popular Culture and Social Structure in its socio­logy department, and Detective Fiction is taught by a Professor of Law at the St.

Metro's -Women's Volleyball team dropped its season opener to Colorado State Tuesday evening in Fort Collins; 11-15, 8-15, 15-10, 12-15.

The team played without the services of several starters, including All-Confer­ence player Mary Dougherty, who is side­lined with an injury. Poor positioning and ineffective defensive coverage proved to be MSC's eventual downfall. .

Due to the injuries in the starting lineup, Coach Pat Johnson was able to allow several freshmen spikers to ac• cumulate valuable game experience.

Louis University Law School. So, as one reporter on the aeademics

of pop culture said: "For once, student interest and acadeQlic development are on the same wave length. And anybody who has a personal interest in any of th~ forms of popular culture ought to exploit it."

As Dobbs phrased it: "I think the movie Easy Rider probably had more ef­fect on our generation than the Vietnam war, yet we have courses on the politics of that period, and nothing on the movies­and the popular culture.

"Of course," he added, "there is no definition of popular culture ... and what isn't popular culture?"

Teresa continued rrom page 13 well as for many other lesser known bui excellent Italian directors. With his own development as a director, he has borrowed much - especially the time­honored wry and caustic Italian social satire. But DiPalma merges his statement so effectively· with the main theme that ibis film is one of those you really have to­see twiCe to fully appreciate.

A movie dedicated to the. fine art of making it.
