This will not be a regular feature as last year, but I shall comment on happenings in the cinema, when ever time and space permits. First of all, I would like to discuss the condition of Weber's film program. In case you want to know, the committee has scheduled four films for the fall term. The first is "The Ugly American," starring Marlon Brando. In an effort to assure me of this film's quality, a member of the committee stated that the social science division is going to encourage all its students to see it. Well, I don't know how qualified they are over there to judge the cinematic merits of this work, but, that's their problem. The second film is "Boeing, Boeing." It features Jerry Lewis and Tony Curtis. It can only be described as pure, unadulterated tripe. (It should be a sellout.) Next we have "Sands of the Kalahari." All I can say is, "Don't miss it. if you can't." The final movie for this sea son is "Lord Jim." Peter 0'- Too, James M and Df)h. ia Layi stare thejr th h ... rt tv,; film wJ Columbia picture.s . . , ... KnpnHin(, $12 million and many months in the Cambodian jungles, the studio served up "Lord Jim" as tfheir big roadshow film of the year. However, when the reviews were unanimously unfa vorable, not only did Columbia ' cnane fne fjlm's rond show . f ,... ut withdrew ;t- fr(1m een- eral reease for a peri0(j 0f six months to let the reviews be forg0tten Why has such a poor program been scheduled? The answer is simple. The present committee think of films as a means to make money and nothing more, You see the committee is the Films AND Lectures Committee, and believe me, the accent is on Lectures, I his is the group which is responsible for Weber's own ver- sion of moral rearmament, betre- known as Religious Emphasis SUKfc HCr tJ lbT UUN I UlANUfc to Week. Somebody decided that this venture was such a success last year, that the committee is now going to sponsor a philosophy emphasis week. (Whose philosophy remains to be seen.) Noedless to say. these programs cost money. And the best wiy to make money is throus h films. I believe that it is inconsistent with the aims of a college community to relegate the films to such a perfunctory status. I have always' thought, although Weber causes me grave doubt at times, that a college is a place of higher learning. A college must not merely reflect community opinion, but must act as a leader and elevator of opinion and knowledge in that community it serves. Thus, a college film program must also serve these ends. Weber's present program is not doing this. We are getting a late duplication of what is presented in the downtown theatres, and not even the best of that. Wake up students! You have the power to change all this. They want to make money, so demand your money's worth. Tell the committee what should be shown, obviously they don't know. Also, you can join the committee, if your patience can staind it ; Blue Key Sets Blood Drive For Thursday Blue Key, the national honor fraternity, will sponsor a blood drive on campus Thursday to build blood bank. The Bloodmobile will be in front of the Union Building from 9:30 a m- to 2:30 Pr Trophies will be given to the organizations with the highest percentage of blood donors. All donors will be entitled to use blood from the bank in case of emergen ices. Members of the immediate family will also find it possible to borrow from the bank. Their drive is being headed by the motto: "Give the gift that only people can give." Those donating blood must meet certain qualifications. All students must be over 18 years of age. Before a student will be accepted, he must undergo a blood test to determine his type and adequacy of health. Donors must weigh over 98 lbs. Among illnesses listed preventing from contributing blood, are any contagious disesases within the last month which the student may have contacted. Any student suffering from anemia or other blood diseases are void from participation. ATTEUTIOII MEN Haircuts STILL Clyde's Barbershop I Block below Wash. 332 - 36lh Street XJ MWH AWVIIN NEAI CCY |
