The Damman let ter suggested the program micrht be worthwhile

December 10 & 11, the New Film W e e k l y Co-op will b r i n g J u d y Garland to campus, as she s tar red in the original "A Star Is Born." Showings will be at 6:30, 8:30, and 10:30 in G r a v e s Hal l . S t u d e n t s who will need a good laugh during finals week will appreciate a study break December 17 with the Marx Brothers in "Duck Soup."

The New Film Weekly Co-op, though founded by Eve r t t out of " f r u s t r a t i o n wi th t h e p r e s e n t movie situation", has no intention of actually interfering with SAC's movie program. Ever t t prefers to bring in older movies that are still

classics today while SAC brings in more current films. If this semes-ter proves successful for the new organization, next semester film buffs on campus will enjoy such classics as "Philadelphia Story" with James Stewart , Cary Grant, and K a t h r y n H e p b u r n . O t h e r older films to be shown will be "Eas ter Parade", "Broken Arrow", "From Here to Eterni ty" , and the mus ica l c lass ic " A m e r i c a n in Paris."

The New Film Weekly Co-op members are Brian Ever t t , Robert Robins, Mayrie Boyce, Russ Curts and Mile McFaden.

Policies offered by Linda Joy

Executive Director Michigan Consumers Council

Life insurance companies often offer policies tailored to the needs of a col lege s t u d e n t . A l t h o u g h some of the policies may be worth i n v e s t i g a t i n g , o t h e r s can be a financial burden to an unsuspect-ing or unknowledgeable buyer.

THE MAJORITY of people buy l ife i n s u r a n c e to p r o t e c t t h e i r dependents from financial hard-ship in the event of their death. But many s tudents don't stop to think who is financially dependent on them and, consequently, may buy t h e w r o n g t y p e of l ife insurance.

Many also think they can save money by purchasing life insurance at a young age. In fact, premiums a r e lower for y o u n g peop le because of their potentially long l i fe . By b u y i n g y o u n g , smal l premiums are spread across a long period of time. But this may be more expensive than waiting until later in life to buy insurance, if one

s t a y s h e a l t h y . A l t h o u g h t h e premiums will be larger, a person would have a shorter period of time to pay them.

WHOLE LIFE and term insur-ance are the two basic types of life insurance. Whole life provides life insurance protection plus a type of f o r c e d - s a v i n g s p lan . The pre-miums can be borrowed against a f te r they build up cash value. T e r m i n s u r a n c e p r e m i u m s buy only life insurance protection -- no cash value. Of the two, whole life is usually the more expensive.

Most of the insurance policies offered to s tudents are whole life pol icies or t e r m pol ic ies which convert to whole life a f te r a period of y e a r s . B e c a u s e whole l ife insurance policies build up cash value, many s tudents think they are enrolling in an "investment plan" or "savings club." They don't realize until later they 've signed a c o n t r a c t for m a n y y e a r s of premiums.

T h i s e v e n i n g a t 7 in D e W i t t Ballroom the Music Depar tment will present a Madrigal Christmas Dinner.

A Madrigal dinner is the cele-bration of a renaissance feast . The name comes from the practice of s i n g i n g m a d r i g a l s a s t h e main s o u r c e of e n t e r t a i n m e n t . T h e dinner is traditionally a Christmas function, as this one will be. The m a d r i g a l d i n n e r ha s become a t r a d i t i o n on m a n y col lege cam-puses. I t provides an opportunity

to be a part of a tradition which provides a touch of our heritage.

The menu for the dinner was planned by Joy Hut t a r an(J Biz Ridl. The dishes will be authentic English dishes, including capon in honey, roast beef, a Wassail Bowl, and plum pudding.

During the dinner, each course will be h e r a l d e d by a b r a s s fanfare; strolling minstrels will be h e a r d . F o r e n t e r t a i n m e n t t h e r e will be a program of early music by the vocal and instrumental ensem-bles of the Collegium Musicum. T h e r e will a l so be r e n a i s s a n c e dancers.

G e o r g e Ra lph , of t h e t h e a t r e d e p a r t m e n t , will s e r v e as t h e "Lord of Misrule." Traditionally the "Lord" criticizes and pokes fun at established institutions.

The evening should prove to be one of fun and excitement. Dr. Sharp said "It is something we may w a n t to e s t a b l i s h as a tradition."

Paul coordinates overseas program

Professor Dan Paul of the Hope College education depar tment has been s e l e c t e d by t h e Michigan Interinsti tutional Consortium for O v e r s e a s S t u d e n t T e a c h i n g to coordinate the s tudent teaching a s s i g n m e n t s of 17 s t u d e n t s in B r u s s e l s , Belgium d u r i n g t h e winter te rm.

Paul interviewed s tudents from all teacher training institutions in t h e s t a t e and s e l e c t e d 17 to participate in the MICOST Pro-gram. Two Hope s tudents , Glenn Johnson from Randolph, N.J. and Lois McConnell from New Canaan, Conn, were among those selected. S t u d e n t s will c o m p l e t e t h e i r s tudent teaching assignments un-der Paul 's supervision in American Schools in Belgium. Paul will also teach a g r a d u a t e c o u r s e for teachers in Brussels.

Hope first participated in the program two years ago when six s t u d e n t s f r o m t h e co l l ege w e r e selected for a similar program in the Netherlands. Last year Pro-fessor Lamont Dirkse from Hope was selected to direct the program in Brussels and took with him two Hope s tuden ts during the winter term.

"Dr. Paul is particularly Quali-fied for this assignment and his se lec t ion is i n d i c a t i v e of t h e esteem held for him by Michigan

e d u c a t o r s , " s t a t e d Dr . J a m e s Bultman, chairman of the educa-tion depar tment .

Paul joined the Hope faculty in 1966 and was promoted to full pro-fessor in the spring of 1976. Prior to his appointment to the Hope faculty, he was a teacher and ad-ministrator in the West Ottawa Public School system. He received the AB degree from Hope in 1950, t h e MA d e g r e e f r o m W e s t e r n Michigan University in Education-al Administration in 1957, the EdS d e g r e e f r o m W e s t e r n Michigan University in Educational Curricu-lum in 1964, and the doctorate from Weste rn Michigan Universi-ty in Educational Leadership in 1974. During the current semes-ter , Paul is on sabbatical leave studying in the area of audio-visual and materials preparation as well as d e v e l o p i n g t w o se l f -pac ing social s tudies courses for elemen-tary teachers .

At Hope Paul serves as chair-man of the elementary division of teacher preparation, instructor in the area of elementary curriculum and methods, and coordinator of e lementary s tudent teachers.

T H E GUILD i nv i t e s s t u d e n t s f rom p a r t i c i p a t i n g col leges to prepare for the exhibition to s t a r t January 13.

The Visual Ar ts Guild believes t h a t t h i s exh ib i t ion will be an excellent opportunity for s tudent ar t is ts to gain some exposure in t h e r e a l m of t h e visual a r t s . E x h i b i t o r s can s h a r e ideas and expressions with each other and receive constructive criticism.

A S T U D E N T does not o f t e n have the opportunity to look at his own production as an observer. He can, in exhibition', separate himself from his involvement in the con-s t r u c t i o n or p r o d u c t i o n of his w o r k . T h e a r t i s t is in a much bet ter situation in exhibition to judge his own ar t . The Guild feels t h a t such an o p p o r t u n i t y is i nva luab l e in each ind iv idua l ' s artistic development.

Insight from Japan.,..

A cultural comparison (Tt\is is the second in a series

of articles in which President Van Wylen reports on some of his impressions and observations gained during his recent visit to Japan.) .

One of the things that impressed us mpst during oqr visit to Japan was the, diligence and pride which the Japanese people have for their work. Almost everyone seems to feel that his job is important and that it must be done well. Many of t he t ax i d r i v e r s wea r wh i t e gloves; this appears to be a mark of their status and responsibilities as a professional driver.

WE WERE also most impressed with the cleanliness of Tokyo, one of thp largest cities in the world. One gains the impression that this is ach ieved in a s igh i f ican t measure simply because people do not li t tef. There is no graffiti on the subways and trains - a wel-come contrast to the New York

/subways. Speaking of t rains and subways,

Japan Jias an excellent mass trans-portation system. One of the very striking facts is that the trains run remarkabjy well on time. We took a number of trains and we were never njore than a minute late. The "bullet" train from Tokyo to t h e s o u t h e r n p a r t s of J a p a n is most impressive not only in terms of speed, but also in terms of clean-liness and efficiency.

ONE OF the striking facts about our visit to Tokyo was to learn that one can walk the s t ree ts of Tokyo day or night with a great s e n s e of conf idence in one ' s personal safety. Tokyo is reported to be the safest large city in the world.

One of the interesting things about Japan is that there is no tipping. In restaurants , a service charge is added, and nothing more is expected. When riding a taxi one simply pays the price on the meter . Someone told me that he once left something in a taxi and

the driver spent considerable time locating this person in order to re turn the item which had been left. When asking for an explana-tion of actions such as this, and also the no-tipping approach, I was told that when one gets into a taxi, the driver accepts the responsibili-ty for t he p a s s e n g e r and as a p ro fess iona l , his du ty is the personal safety and well-being of the passenger.

THIS SENSE of responsibility between people extends to many relationships in Japanese society. This is pa r t i cu la r ly e v i d e n t in r e g a r d to e m p l o y m e n t . Once a person is h i red , the employe r tends to take responsibility for the employment of that person for life and only under most extreme cir-cumstances would this employee be laid off or terminated. But, this is a mutual relationship for it is most unusual foi an employee to le^ve the firpi he js working for. I was told of a young man who left a position in a banking firm to take a por t ion in a new, field. This was really an irrevocable decision for him because no bank ing firm would ever employ him again once he had left a position in a bank.

Several Japanese we talked to were most interested in the fact that in this cpuntry many women t ake e m p l o y m e n t a f t e r the i r children are raised. These oppor-t u n i t i e s would be very r a r e in Japan. Most women leave their positions after they are married, and do not work again in business or industry. This is changing some-what, however, and we did meet a few young couples w h e r e both husband and wife are continuing to work a f t e r m a r r i a g e , and even after having children.

ONE OF THE things we noted is the close cooperation between industry, labor, and the govern-ment. This appears to relate to the obse rva t ion I made in t h e last a r t i c le t h a t t he only ma jo r resource Japan has is its people.

and they can compete in world markets only if there is close coop-eration between industry, labor, and t he g o v e r n m e n t . While we were in Tokyo there was a strike of t he ra i l road w o r k e r s ( they struck from 4 a.m. to 7 a.m. one morning) just long enough to show their power, but at a time and for a period that would bring minimal inconvenience and disruption!

One of the greatest joys about our visi t to J a p a n was the graciousness and delightful man-ners of the Japanese people. Mrs. Van Wylen and I have never quite experienced anything like this. I realize that these manners are a matter of culture and that they do not in t h e m s e l v e s r e p r e s e n t a dep th of a r e l a t i onsh ip . Yet , I

)\'\ bel ieve t h a t our l ives, both as individuals and communities, could be significantly enriched by practi-cing some of t he g r ac iousnes s which marks the Japanese.

I SHOULD NOTE, however , that this grace and charm does not mean the Japanese are soft when it comes to ba rga in ing . I have learned from Japanese business-men that the Japanese are fair, but very tough bargainers when it comes to business transactions.

While we were in Japan the dollar was at a very low point as compared to t he J a p a n e s e yen, which meant that Japanese goods were more expensive for us to pur-chase. The reason for this is simply the fact that Japan has built up a tremendous trade surplus with the United States. Actually this has led to concern for the economic f u t u r e of J a p a n because this means that the prices for Japanese goods are going higher and they will, therefore, be able to sell less in the world markets. The laws of economics certainly have a way of taking over!

AS ONE TRIES to understand the Japanese and compare them to Americans, one realizes that there is one ve ry basic d i f f e r e n c e

"m X y

b e t w e e n J a p a n and the Uni ted States. Japan is a country of one race culture (even the Japanese admit that non-Japanese do not fare too well in Japan). The United States, of course, is a mixture of many different races and cultures. All of our large cities were settled with certain ethnic neighborhoods. In addition, we have the tragic situations associated with slavery, all of which have led to many internal tensions in this country.

One wonders what will happen

in the United States in another century. Will we tend to become a ra ther homogeneous people, such as t he J a p a n e s e , or will our cu l tu ra l and racial d i f f e r e n c e s persist for generations to come? Certainly for the present we have to learn to live with a diversity which is q u i t e fore ign to the situation in Japan. Such advan-tages, which a more homogeneous life and culture offer, will have to be achieved in the United States in other ways.

Censorship in Private Schools The distinction between private

and public schools is often a key factor in determining whether or not student journalists enjoy the full protection of the First Amend-ment.

The Amendment protects indivi-dua l s , including s t u d e n t s , f rom censo r sh ip by local, s t a t e and federal governments. Since public institutions are government agen-cies, and act as arms of the state and local authorities, they may not v io la te the F i r s t A m e n d m e n t r ights of students. However, since private institutions are not gov-ernment agencies, student journal-ists at private schools may not directly claim the benefits of the Firs t Amendment.

C e n s o r e d s t u d e n t s at p r i v a t e schools and colleges must employ reasoned argument and political pressure to gain the freedom of e x p r e s s i o n g u a r a n t e e d to t he i r counterparts in public schools.

Academic Freedom: Many pri-vate schools would not think of censoring a student because to do so would violate the fundamental p r e c e p t of modern educa t ion ;

namely, freedom of thought and expression are an essential part of the learning process.

Citizenship Training: Experien-cing f i r s t -hand the r i g h t s and responsibilities of democratic citi-zenship is the best way to under-stand the workings of democracy. Schools engaged in censorship fail to teach students the fundamental va lue upon which a democra t i c society rests.

State Schools Are Better?: Free speech is an important component of qua l i ty educa t ion . P r i v a t e schools failing to recognize those rights afforded students at public schools simply do not measure up.

Freedom of Religion and Press: Parochial schools have an obliga-tion to support the spirit of the First Amendment 's provision for freedom of speech out of respect for the Amendment 's protection of freedom of religion. A religious institution, whose very existence is protected by the First Amend-men t , should not d i s r e g a r d the Amendment 's other guarantees.

A contract? : Some p r i v a t e schools may describe s tudent pub-

l ica t ions in c a t a l o g u e s or o t h e r material. These descriptions may conta in l anguage which te l ls s tudents their freedom of expres-sion will not be abridged. This language may represent a contract between the school and student editors which limits the school's power to censor.

Politics: Private institutions are often sensitive to pressure brought to bear by organized groups of s t u d e n t s and f acu l ty . If g roups opposed to c e n s o r s h i p publicize their views to the school's adminis-trators, t rustees, and the public at large, private schools may aban-don censorship efforts.

Policies offered....

of life insurance policy known as t h e " d e f e r r e d p r emium pol icy." I n s u r a n c e a g e n t s a r e a w a r e of t i g h t s t u d e n t b u d g e t s , so they sometimes offer s tudents a five-year policy which allows them to pay back the first year's premium in the fifth year. This sounds like a f ree year of insurance to many s t u d e n t s , bu t t hey have rea l ly signed a promissory note to the insurance company for a five-year loan. If they t ry to drop the policy, they find either part or all of the debt is due immediately.

Some of the deferred premium policies o f fe r a f i f t h - y e a r bonus which helps the student pay the loan for the first year's premium. But this bonus, often referred to as

(continued from page 1)

an endowment, has already been built into the price s t ructure of the policy.

LIFE INSURANCE is a compli-cated subject, so investigate the different types of policies before deciding on a certain one.

Like any contract, know exactly w h a t ' s involved be fo re s igning. Ques t ion any t e r m s which a re unfamiliar and get opinions from seveal different insurance agents.

Christmas and Giving by S a m m e O r w i g

As we near the end of the first semester, we are truly feeling the stress of studies and last minute details tightening around us. Exams are less than a week away, Christ-mas shopping must be done, and prepara-tions for the holidays must be made.

In short, most everyone is extremely busy, and we're all looking forward to the relief we'll feel when Christmas vacation begins.

r

There is, however, somewhat of a con-flict. During exam time, there is a tendency for each student to become thoroughly wrapped up in her or his own studies and thus forget that this is the season in which we must take time to give to others. Giving is the true spirit of Christmas, and we have lost that spirit.

What happens is the pressures of exams turn us into temporary Scrooges as we at-tempt to do our best in our studies. Now, there is nothing wrong with working to achieve scholastic wonders or outsmart all of Hope's professors if those are one's goals.

What is wrong is when these goals be-come so important that they turn one into a self-centered book worm who has no time to remember Christmas: a Scrooge.

Salvation comes to the Scrooge, but it comes a bit late. Having finished with exams, the Scrooge finally has the time to recover from exams and wake up to the realization that it is Christmas, and that there is some of this Christmas spirit left to be absorbed.

In somewhat of a frantic, hurried rush to make up for past "Scrooge-ish" actions, our friend is found buying gifts which re-present this new-found spirit of giving. In short, our society's Scrooges have turned Christmas into a quick-and-easy-pre-packaged celebration which is now based on the exchange of material gifts.

Of course, Christmas is the time for giv-ing, but what types of gifts should we be giving? At least in a sense of tradition, we ought to base the kinds of gifts we give on the First Christmas Gift. In no way are we able to copy that Gift, but we can base our gifts on love and giving of the self.

In all the parables which talk of giving, it never matters how expensive or impres-sive a gift may be; it only matters that the gift is given from the heart.

And what does that have to do with exams and the hectic schedule of a student? All that can be said is that we nHist re-member to think of others, especially at this time, and do what we can for them. Work hard for your classes; study for exams, but by all means show to others that you are a part of the spirit of Christmas.

Welcome to the Grand Illusion .. .Come on in and see what's happening

Pay the price get your tickets for the show...

Step in and see, it's Hope College to me. The thrills, the chills, and the daring de-vils. From Central to Columbia, the beauty of the campus, the challenge of passing through the Pine grove. So few women dare.

The cultural experience of seeing epics performed, live, about town. "West Side Story" in the Burger King parking lot and the enchanting tale of "Jack the Ripper" just the other side of I4th Street. All this only a short distance from campus, for the convenience of the students. ...But don't be fooled by the radio

The T.V. or the magazines They'll show you photographs Of how your life should be But they're just someone else's fantasy... "Yes, seniors, this is Hope College, and

I'm your illustrious admissions officer. This is Hope College in brief. It looks just the way the board of directors told me to make it look. What'a ya think? ...America spells competition

Join us in our blind ambition Get yourself a brand new motor car.. . "Hope is a worldly' recognized small col-

lege. Your diploma will serve as your pass-

port to success in any endeavor undertaken. The academics aren't exactly easy but nothing overwhelming, I can assure you, and our tuition is below that of area com-petitors so you'll have no problem absorb-ing the costs. ...But someday soon we'll stop to ponder

What on earth's this spell we're under We made the grade and still we wonder Who the hell we are!

Glenn Shoup lyrics by: Dennis DeYoung - "STYX"

When someone spends thirty years reminding people to be careful with fire, and he does it for no other reason than to save our forests, he makes a lot of friends.

Even if he's just a bear.

Channels of Communication As the head of the other major news

source on campus I feel I should share some of my personal feelings on your editorial of December second.

Our news department at WTAS is also in the position of needing cooperation from the administration for news. During the period of the attacks we found Mr. Bareman extremely cooperative in releas-ing all the information he had to us the day it happened or at most a day or two late. This included "privileged" information for our private use only. The Dean's office and the Holland Police also cooperated fully. These three sources were equally knowledgeable on the attacks and even if the anchor has somehow alienated one of them there are others from which infor-mation can be gathered.

We have always been able to broadcast

at least 5 mini-documentaries of "hard" campus news a week. We have yet to run into a person that has been uncooperative or feels that he or she has been misrepre-sented by our staff.

t It seems strange to me to hear the

anchor complain about lack of coopera-tion from the administration when the majority of all articles published in the anchor are written by the college's Public Relations Department.

Sincerely, John P. Hoekstra

Meet Me In St. Louis

The last hurrah? by K. Gary Hasek

Dear Hope College, "Better is the end of a thing than

its beginning." - Ecclesiastes 7:8 Thus saith the preacher in one of

my favorite books of the Bible. Whether it is t rue of this column or not, I will not say. Anyway, since the end of my college career is upon me this month and also my c a r e e r as a co l l ege n e w s p a p e r columnist, (this the third of it's kind tha t I've wri t ten , the others being "as it is in heaven" and "back from the hogs,") I decided to give an a p p r a i s a l of my " H o p e Experience."

It all began SVz years ago when I t ransfer red to this "liberal ar ts" col lege f r o m a c o m m e r c i a l a r t school . "Oh to be . l i b e r a l l y e d u c a t e d ! " I t h o u g h t . I d e s i r e d knowledge about many things and to be able to learn these many things in, what the Hope catalog s t a t e s , a " d y n a m i c C h r i s t i a n community - s tuden ts and teachers vitally concerned with a relevant faith tha t changes lives and trans-forms society."

So, what did I get? Well, there sure was a lot of knowledge tha t I was going to have to consume, but I think they really didn't tell the t ruth about the res t .

As far as the environment goes, the windmills and tulips are all very quaint but no one told me about the factory aromas of pickles and paint.

The Christianity I encountered was too often consisting of luke-warmness or near fanaticism. It didn't appear very "dynamic" as the catalog had said.

Then the re were those unique social c rea tu res called fraterni t ies and sororities. Living with a f ra t my first year at Hope gave me plenty of opportunity to experi-ence their lifestyle. I t seems to me t h e s e o r g a n i z a t i o n s a r e some-where in between glorified "scout" groups and modified s t ree t gangs. Not tha t there aren ' t some fine i n d i v i d u a l s and f r i e n d s of mine within them, but some of their mob-scenes seem to be incongru-ent with what I was duped into believing the school was to be.

Although there are some faculty m e m b e r s s t r i v i n g for t h e ca ta-loged "ideal" of Hope's Christiani-ty, the re seems to be a vast num-ber of people who find it fur thes t from their desire to fulfill.

It seems pre t ty obvious to me

tha t the natural sciences have it well over all the res t of the depart-m e n t s . I t r u l y a p p r e c i a t e t h e knowledge gained from that part of my education, however, I wish the a r t depar tment , the slot which I placed my major in, had half the money and available facilities to work with.

The rule against the drinking of a lcohol ic b e v e r a g e s on c a m p u s , forbidden by both administration and seemingly heaven alike, was always an interest ing rule to me. I r emember hiding a bottle of wine in my dorm room whose contents was used for the celebration of the L o r d s s u p p e r , a s well a s an occasional bibbing, and imagining get t ing caught with it in my room and having to go to the dean to explain, "But, we were only t rying to do what Christ told us to do. "Sorry kid," he'd say, "rules are rules." and I would go off branded for life as an illegal drug user.

Dorms are a very strange set up to me. Living in them, I presumed, w a s s u p p o s e d t o e n c o u r a g e re-s p o n s i b l e l iv ing t o g e t h e r . But w h e n you h a v e c l e a n i n g l ad ies c lean up y o u r m e s s in t h e bathroom for you and R.A.s telling you wrong from right, the respon-sibility is not so well developed. I doubt if most people a t Hope will live their lives out in the "real world" with maids to clean the p o s t - d r i n k i n g vomi t up in t h e i r bathrooms, and special advisors counseling them on life.

In closing I'd like to say that the re are a lot of good people at Hope, administration, faculty and s tudents . Hope is still redeemable. As J e sus said "With God all things are possible."

The s t ress upon acadamia, how-e v e r , n e e d s to be e a s e d . Some good fr iends of mine have left you because of it. Some people, even now, are breaking down mentally, emotionally, physically and spirit-ually because of it. More people need to spend t ime in their rooms, in t h e K l e t z or in a local bar communicating with each other. Too many people are troubled and lonely at Hope. There needs to be a real concern and reaching out to one another in love.

Wel l , so much for my las t column for the anchor. It is fi t t ing to end this with some words from my Lord, since this has been a " r e l i g i o u s " co lumn. " I t is fin-ished!" John 19:30.

Shalom, K. Gary Hasek

It was one of the most pleasant Sunday af ternoons I've spent in my two and a half years at Hope. L ike all mos t m e m o r a b l e mo-ments, it was so because I snapped the rubber band of the habitual. In this case I forsook my nonstop Sunday afternoon study session to d r i v e wi th a c lass of '77 film-appreciating friend to the Bijou, a small, obscure, f i lm-not movie -theater in a northeast neighbor-hood that , with its slightly seedy s t r e e t s , is t h e l ace - r ave led slip s h o w i n g , b e n e a t h t h e e v e n i n g dress of Eas t Grand Rapids.

SQUEAKING by on a near cost budget, the thea te r is operated by a ret ired fine-film fancier whose p r o f i t s a r e m e a s u r e d in t h e appreciation of a select group of patrons who here can see "films," motion pictures created with artis-tic care, in preference to movies, those mass-produced solely for big box office receipts.

Yet, one can breathe easily at the Bijou. The air is f ree of the stuffiness tha t surrounds those in m u s t y m o t h b a l l e d t w e e d who ba l ance s t e e l - r i m m e d r e a d i n g spectacles on up-turned noses and of t h e s t a l e n e s s l i n g e r i n g a f t e r those shaggy pseudo-intellectuals who describe a can of beans in th ree syllable abstractions.

TO T H E r e f r e s h i n g c o n t r a r y , young husbands and wives herd-ing pink-cheeked children, white-haired grandmothers in autumn-dyed Sunday best, jaunty, blue-jeaned high schoolers, and book-dazed college s tudents in search of an escapade ga ther in the lobby to read the eight-by-ten glossies in the Great Movies picture album or peer over each others ' shoulders at the posters in smiling casuality.

U n i n h i b i t e d co l lege s t u d e n t s beh ind t h e c o u n t e r av id ly ex-change favorite s ta rs and perfor-m a n c e s wi th p a t r o n s , and sell popcorn and run projectors on the s ide . C u s t o m e r s t h e m s e l v e s , by open ballot, select the upcoming $1.75 Sunday matinees they wish to see.

BEHIND a crimson velvet cur-tain, one hundred or so flip down seats face a half-conventional size s c r e e n f l a n k e d by h a n d - p a i n t e d black and white silhouettes of the grea t s t a r s tha t serve as subjects for pre-show identification puzzles and trivia quizzes.

If ever, in fact, a film was pro-duced for t h o s e f u r t h e s t f r o m the boast of high brow "exper-tise," it is the one Kate and I drove to the Bijou to see. Meet Me In St. Louis, the 1944 Academy Award w i n n e r f e a t u r i n g a t e n d e r a t

t w e n t y J u d y G a r l a n d and child show-stealer Margaret O'Brien, was certainly never intended to be t h e y e a r ' s o u t s t a n d i n g a r t i s t i c s ta tement in motion pictures.

IT IS the s t o r y of t h e we l l -hee l ed , social ly consc ious Smith family, which is controlled espionage-style (for the sake of feigned male-superiority appear-ances) by its five pragmatic fe-males, and whose happy St. Louis lifestyle is threatened by a move to New York City. A Renoir-style r o m a n t i c i s m p a i n t s a b r e a t h -taking 1904 St. Louis World's Fair background with whirling, turn-of-the-century gaiety.

A t r iumph of technicolor, it is indeed a very pre t ty picture to w a t c h . O p p u l e n t d i s p l a y s of l a y e r e d chi f fon in c a k e - f r o s t i n g w h i t e s h i m m e r i n g in s p r i n g s u n l i g h t , and s c e n e s of swol len sensuality created by the play of softly diffused light and shadow fairly bulge the screen in an effort to burs t loose.

EVEN the most puritan are set in a perpetual swaying motion by the sparkling-with-delight musical score tha t smiles with songs like the gaily waltzing title tune, the ta r t , pulsating "Trolly Song," and the cradle-rocking "Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas."

T h i s magica l b lend of h e a r t -swelling storyline, instinctively hummable refrains and enchanting delicacy of detail made Meet Me In St. Louis an idea l ized , happ i ly -ever - re t rea t for audiences living in the s tark, steel-trap todays of the war years .

P E R H A P S t h e l a u g h t e r -rationed war days are not so far removed. To see Meet Me In St. Louis was an enchanting world of escape for this stoop-shouldered college s tudent as well. But maybe "escape," suggesting a scared-rab-bi t r u n n i n g f r o m r e a l i t y , be l i e s what I mean to say.

I t is not a subtle form of silver-screen hypnosis. To the contrary, it soothes and set t les communal fears of paralyzing uncertainty.

. > ,,

And that generationlessness ranks it as a Bijou "film" selection.

MEET ME In St. Louis instills an elated sense of Control, heard above the soundtrack in whispered audience predictions of what-will-h a p p e n - n e x t a long t h e f ami l i a r love-story plot path. Yet, at the s a m e t i m e , t h e r e a r e s t a r t l i n g twists and turns and stumps-in-the-shadows seen just in time to s tep around ra ther than stumble over.

The screenplay, relating the real love s t o r y t h a t u n i t e s a h a p p y family and a way of living, drops clues along the way in the bread crumb form of repeated phrase f r a g m e n t s , ca tch w o r d s and melody lines that keep the viewer on the right track. For example, as an excuse to prolong the after-party presence of the barefaced boy next door, in hopes of luring him in to a good -n igh t k i s s (although nice girls won't let them-selves be kissed until a f te r they ' re engaged), Judy Garland, as the coyly i n g e n u o u s E s t h e r S m i t h , asks him to help her turn out the lights.

AFTER a shadowy serenade at the banister, just when he'll surely take his cue, he pumps her hand, blurts that she has a s trong grip for a girl, and dar t s out a slamming screen door. Later , "Esee" finds herself on his f ront porch in an uncharacteristic, lump-in-the-throa t loss of confidence, pumping

Secret CIA document released A recently-released Central In-

telligence Agency memorandum says former U-2 Pilot Francis Gary Powers conducted himself "in a r e s p o n s i b l e m a n n e r " a f t e r his capture by the Russians in 1960 and did not "communicate signifi-cantly damaging" intelligence in-formation to his Soviet captors.

Cabell, acting CIA d i r e c t o r , to t h e n - S e c r e t a r y of State Dean Rusk, "laid the ground-work for the later exchange of Powers and Soviet Superspy, Col. Rudolf Abel." Powers was under sentence a t the t ime in Russia for violation of Soviet espionage laws, and Abe l w a s in an A m e r i c a n prison for similar violation of U.S. laws.

Power ' s demeanor in the Soviet Union is one of more than 11,000 documents which a re now avail-ab l e t h r o u g h C a r r o l l t o n P r e s s ' s Declassified Documents Reference System. Others repor ted on in the cur ren t issue of Declassified Docu-ments News are:

* A CIA memorandum which sugges ts a new reason behind the government ' s controversial d rug experimentat ion program: to in-duce amnesia in CIA employees with " t remendous amounts of in-f o r m a t i o n " who w e r e a b o u t to ei ther re t i re or leave the Agency for o ther reasons.

•Severa l 1962 and 1963 docu-ments on the problems of Presi-dent Kennedy in dealing with the "human r ights" issue of apartheid in South Africa. "At the hear t of the issue," s ta tes a memo from the t h e n - S e c r e t a r y of S t a t e D e a n Rusk, "is how we rela te to those countries whose internal arrange-ments and practices are not only foreign to our way of thinking but, in many cases, repugnant to us."

• A 1949 l e t t e r t o P r e s i d e n t Truman by then-Attorney General J . Howard McGrath which repor ts on F B I w i r e t a p s o r d e r e d by Pres ident Franklin D. Roosevelt as early as May 21, 1940, against " t ra i tors to their country."

*A 1954 White House memoran-dum which laid down this batt le plan for Pres ident Eisenhower to use in the event of an attack on Taiwan by the Chinese Commun-ists: "In the event of unprovoked Chinese aggression in Southeast Asia, Congress will be asked to declare a s ta te of war; the U.S. will then launch a full-scale air and naval attack, using 'new weapons.' The U.S. will seek support for this ac t ion f r o m o t h e r F r e e Wor ld nations."

T H K W H O L K film is a succes-sion of such mas te r fu l ly developed scenes in which the audience is involved in unison m o v e m e n t s of head nodding foreknowledge , lung-aching ant icipat ion and spine-ting-l i ng s u r p r i s e in j u s t t h e r i g h t p r o p o r t i o n so as no t to be f r u s t r a t e d by a d e l i b e r a t e l y shocking d i s r ega rd for all expecta-t ions, nor bored by t h e mindless m o n o t o n y of fu l ly g u a r a n t e e d predic tabi l i ty .

T h i s p r i n c i p l e e x t e n d s to t h e cast as well, all of whom are easily identif ied as cha rac t e r types , but who save t h e m s e l v e s f rom the sin of s t e r e o t y p e by d i s p l a y s of individual s ingular i ty in off-guard m o m e n t s .

Such a film was medicinal for the gloom and fear of the w a r y e a r s . So, too, it can be for the gloom and fear more t h a n seldom felt in a college c a r e e r .
