THE RAM’S HORN March, 1967 Page 3 m Tina Tattles By TINA RAVBHHE My recent columns have drawn some comments and quesUons from interested readers. Here are a few of them: Dear Tina, I think you are a marvelous thinker and witty writer. I am si^- prlsed that we could be so fortunate as to have such a talent^ person at our school. In o&er words—If you’re so dern smart, what are you doing at S. C. C.? J. H. H L U • had to drop out of Berkeley because of tuition Increases. I m ! because I have a CIA grant to Investigate strawberries (they re Daar j. I here because I have a CIA grant to Investigate “red”; perhaps even habit-forming). Dear Tina, What do you think about Pembroke College Issuing pills to its students? R. N. Dear R. N., Actually, after I finished those last exams, I felt more like taking a powder, but I suppose we should let Rhode Island solve its own problems with the assistance of Providence. Dear Miss Ravishhe, Are you real? Virginia Dear Virginia (and South Carolina), 1 must refer all questions involving reality or existentialism to Mr. Zeller who taught me more philosophy than I really wanted to know. Dear Tina, My friend Ken tells me that you are a phony. I think he’s right. I don’t believe you are even a student, much less a girl. I consider you a coward for not using your real name. Anonymous Dear Anon, I assure you that Tina Ravishhe Is my legitimate pseudonym and nom de plume. Ask Ken what his name means. Dear Tina, Why don’t you say something about all these girls whose main purpose In coming to college is to find a husband? The Men Dear Boys, It’s my observation that you can find a husband anywhere. We’re looking for bachelors. But that is only secondary. I know at least one student (a Good ’un, too) who majored in Education and only Minard in marriage. Dear Tina, Why do so many people around here use crutches? A, R. C. Dear Arc, Some of the courses are very difficult. Besides that, my CIA contacts have informed me that sometimes they are used as a symbol for a secret organization: Collegians Reacting Unhappily To Classroom Hangover. Dear Tina, Your recent columns sound very much like sermons. Are you studying for a preacher? R. H. Phactor Dear R. H., No. Mr, McGraw reportedly told a class that a preacher should study for himself. I agree. -30- Shop With Confidence At Leder Brothers Wear With Pride, GOODEN’S GROCERY Choice Meats and Fancy Groceries Dial 647-2226 P. O. Box 634 Clarkton, N. C.

Ann Pifiott Tries For Miss Blueberry Freshman Aim Pigott, from A Review of Dr. Zhivago MANN’S DEPARTMENT STORE H. I. S. Coxmoore Puritan Welcome Students Of S. C. C. By NANCY M. PEARSON Department of English In terms of sheer cinematic ballyhoo. Dr. Zhivago is one of the most conspicuous movies to appear in recent years. Pro moters of the film have taken great pains to guarantee public interest in their adaptation of the novel which alternately earned Boris Pasternak the Nobel Prize in 1958 and political oppression in Russia. Heralding the achieve ment as a latter-day Gone With the Wind, only etched against a Russian landscape, publicity ad vances have concurrently main tained Indefatigable enthusiasm and an endless stream of de tails concerning casting, produc tion, and narrative incident. Any such onslaught of tumult and shareting, intended to pre dispose the average moviegoer’s judgment, inevitably makes im partial criticism a shade more difficult. Ultimately the re viewer must decided whether the cinematic end product fully justi fies the publicity department’s ways and means. In the case of Dr. Zhivago, the answer is a qual- ifi^ "yes”. Dr. Zhivago dramatically ex plores the theme of the individual caught up by forces larger than himself, the pawn of chance and history. Worn sperlfically, the course of the Russian revolution dominates the poet and its characters, from the czarlst massacres of prewar revolution aries to the communist murders of those opposing the new tyran nies. Thehero, Zhivago, is a sur geon who writes poetry, A sen sitive, sometimes tormented in dividual who espouses ideals in a state that crushes them. Around Zhivago and his beloved Lara the plot crystallizes, counterpoint ing the fragmentary happiness and ultimate tragedy of tlie lovers against the process of time and the shadowed destinies of those against whose lives impinge at some point bring them into con tact with Zhivago shadowed and Lara. Significantly, in terms of structural emphasis, the pro duction departs notably from the terse, imagistic, hi^ly com pressed literary plane of Paster nak’s novel and Lakes Its place on an emotionally charged, visually sturmlng cinematic can vas. Nevertheless in the process, the poetic, symbolic essence of the novel is reduced and some what distorted. At times. Di rector David Lean rather ruth lessly exploits conditioned senti mental Impulse as a facile sub stitute for genuine emotional Im pact. Sterotyped and disappoint ingly inadequate symbols of com plex human reaction occasional ly float Into view: the bluest oi skies represents a sense of hope; a burst of warm, yellow flowers parallels a moment of Intense personal satisfaction; Zhivago’s almost paternal sense of pride in his musical Instrument, the balalaika, supposedly suggests Shallotte, was chosen Saturday, March 18, to represent Colum bus County in the Blueberry Fes tival to be held in Elizabethtown May 25-27. The contest was held at Harry's Anchorage, Lake Wuccamaw. Five Judges se lected Ann from a group of seven girls. The contestants appeared in evening gown, bathing suits, and street clothes. They were judged on speaking ability, poise, personality, and beauty. Ann Is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert E. Pigott of Shallotte, N. C. She is a student in the college parallel program. The festival in Elizabeth town will feature girls from the thirteen surrounding counties. A $1000 scholarship will be offered to the winner plus a new ward robe, an all expense paid trip to Canada, and the use of a Mus tang convertible for one year. layers of aesthetic sensitivity otherwise ignored in the film. Yet, on the positive side, Dr. Zhivago is poignautly timeless at moments and rich in dramatic performance, Omar Sharif, Rod Steiger, Tom Courknay, and Geraldine Chaplin are fine in their respective roles. Julie Christie as Lara is unabashedly splendid. And although several loose plot ends are left handing at the conclusion of the film, Director David Lean basically shows remarkable control; he refuses to Inflate his material for idle, spectucular, Hollywood effects. His principal characters never confront directly the great historical events of the period because that, above all, is pre cisely what Boris Pasternak Intended. Here are individuals, unable to mold, focus, or even fully understand the events that are transforming their lives, in dividuals who are couragrous, compassionate, yet tragically helpless.
