ENTERTAINMENT
ON REVIEM
By Monte Zepeda
No column for two weeks and what happens?
—WGIV institutes a series of commercials for a local auto
dealer, Hutton-Scott Dodge, using ministers as announcers.
Any merchant that would foUow such a policy has to be in
dire need of a short course in advertising and p»i)lic relations.
Any minister that would endorse any product sold by a profit
making organization has to be in dire need of a short course
in professional ethics.
—John Kilgo hits the listening audienci' of WAYS with a poetic
description of what happens to peop.e when spring arrives and
spring fever attacks middle-aged gossip columnist turned radio
news man.
—WAYS ' sends John KUgo out to Los Angeles to cover the
tournament. On the day of the championship game Kilgo sends
a message back to his listeners stating that “being number
two isn’t so bad.”
What better morale booster could he find that ir ‘plying that
Chapel HiU’s cause was lost?
Sandy Posey, who was supposed to be on campus today, decided
she didn’t want to stay in Charlotte after all.
She opened last Friday at the club with a pretty good act. She
sand surprisingly well but lacked the necessary polish lor a
night club act. This combined with complications — the band
needed practice on the musical arrangements — more than
likely was too much for the newcomer.
She opened and closed Friday. When showtime came Satur
day and the band was setting up for the performance, it was
announced that Miss Posey had left town.
A quick rundown of local movies.
Village —“The Ballad of Josie” with Doris Day and Peter
Graves the head of Mission Impossible. The story of a spirited
woman who tries to raise sheep in a strictly “cattle country”
area. Graves is a cattleman who tries to talk Miss Day out of
her venture before the other cattlemen shoot her.
Plaza — “The Graduate” with Anne Bancroft-Dustin Hoff
man match up as lovers in a “middle-aged woman — young
college kid” romance of sorts. Unfortunately Hoffman fells in
love with his lover’s daughter and the action begins to snow
ball. This movie is full of laughs plus a lot of meaning.
Cinema I — “In Cold Blood” is the movie version of Truman
Capote’s best-seller. A very suspenseful and frighteningly re
alistic film about one of the worst murders in history.
Visulite — “Guess Who’s Coming to Dinner?” is without a
doubt one of the most worthwhile movies to come along in some
time. Not only does the movie have some of the best one-liners
ever to cause a belly laugh but it also brings a touchy racial
situation to light handling it all the while with the utmost tact.

There are a couple of new 45 r.p.m. records that are being
played through this state as weU as the nation that should be in
Charlotte by now.
The Doors have one called “ft’s All Over”. The song states
the inhymanity of death in war and how finally “ft’s all over for
the unknown soldier”. In addition to the most significant meaning
of the lyrics, the song has a good tune with some catchy sound
effects.
“The Son of Hickory HoUow’s Tramp” by 0. C. Smith is going
to be a very big hit. Already the song is sweeping through the
north and it has even gotten as far as Greenville and Raleigh.
ft is the story of a woman who has to find a way to support
14 kids after her husband runs off with another woman. Hence
“The path was beaten deep and wide” to the house with the scarlet
lantern. But the kids were too young to know; when they grew
older they understood and “were thankful for their birth. When
their mother died they went every week to place 14 roses on the
grave of “the best mom of them all.”
A new Kama Sutra album is “The Best of the Lovin’ Spoonful—
Volume Two”, ft includes such hits by the group as “Darling
Be Home Soon”, “Nashville Cats”, and “Money”.
A new album that is perfect for a dance party is “Machito
Goes to Memphis”, on RCA records, ft is a big band sound of
top forty hits including “Baby I Love You”, “Hip Hug Her”,
“Knock On Wood”, “Alfie”, “In the Midnight Hour”, “Fa-Fa-Fa-
Fa-Fa”, and more.
Bonnie and Clyde fans will have a breakneck race to the record
shop to get the soundtrack album of the movie “Bonnie and Clyde.”
The record, a Warner Brothers-7 Arts release, not only has
music from the picture including “Foggy Mountain Breakdown”,
but also has excerpts of dialogue from various scenes in the
film.
Peter Nero has an RCA album with a beautiful version of “Love
Is Blue”. Also, other intricate instrumentals include “Windy”,
“The Glory of Love”, “1 Say a Little Prayer”, “Try to Remem
ber”, “Who Will Answer” and others.
