Thursday, March 14, 1968 By JOE SANDERS o The Daily Tar Heel Staff How novel, I thought, to have a movie filmed in my own .house. -When I first learned that scenes of a new movie, ;starnng Yvette Mimeux were going to be shot upstairs in the -house where I live I im mediately had visions of the romantic Hollywood life of maybe even being discovered. This is my true confession, 'or: My Secret Life With Yvet " te Mimeux. Now it can be told. Iliveat 115 Battle Lane. On Wed .iiesday, Feb. 28, my landlord, i Joseph Warren, told me that I -the movie was going to be shot I upstairs in the house. , "We're getting $l,ooo just for ;two days of shooting," Mr. Warren said. "They told me they only want the living room and one bedroom. Won't be any trouble at all." He walked off congratulat ing himself on his financial killing end I called after, "Tell them If they need some one for. a bedroom scene I don't charge much." This wasn't any two-bit pro . duction, I learned. I read in the Tar Heel on the following .Saturday that none other than ( American International was doing the filming. They are the ones that did 'Spree and Beach Blanket Bingo. I was impressed. - The next day Yevtte was sit i ting on my front lawn reading her script. I walked by her and i pretended not to notice I didn't want her to feel self-conscious and I knew she'd ap preciate my not calling at tention to her. She did: she never even looked up.

The ropes, I told them, could say. They didn't say a thing. - , That noon there were 30 peo ple outside tiie house and movie equipment all over the front; lawn A - crowd - had fathered across the street to watch and I, not trying to act self-important, walked up to the front door to get my mail. A woman stopped me, ask ing, "What are you doing here? No visitors." March . 5, 6, and 7 went by and they were still there. On Friday, . the eighth, I came back at noon to see two men painting the lawn orange, six girls sitting in a tree and Yvet te singing "John Brown's . Body." My landlord was stan ding on the front lawn. -"They are shooting a dream tequence," he explained, and a nan stuck his head .out -of a window, screaming, ,'Will tveryone down there please shut up!'? On March 9, a day that will live in infamy, I was stopped - for the sventh time by the " seventh stranger when I went to get my mail. This one was stranger than the rest he was smoking a cigar, and wear ing a red wig. Of course I didn't get in, but I looked in to see the guy that lives across the hall from me talking politics with Chris Jones, the lead male in the movie. "Was Eisenhower a Republican or a Democrat?" Jones asked him. - Late that night they still worked over scenes upstairs. They had been down three times that day, trying to bor row a piece for a guitar, a chess set and a bicycle. I . didn't have any of them and by : then wouldn't have loaned ' them my floor sweepings. Sunday was the last day. Mrs. Warren was a little wob bly from ; no sleep, and Mr. Warren wasn't ' talking to anyone. "What are they doing now?"- I asked, and a man stuck his head out the window i and told me to shutuup. , Thev left mv back window covered with - grease, paper cups along the street, and they didn't even ask me to do a 'bedroom scene. w . - 1 -.

Weybright and Talley. $3.95 Publication: March 18, 1S6S. The reader's initial reaction of disbelief is followed by more disbelief as it becomes clear that the author has no other purpose than creating disbeliefs. And so there it is, 140 pages guaranteed to drive any normal person . to distrac tion. First things first. This book "by Richard Wincor" is not about Sherlock Holmes. Indeed, it, is about everything but Sherlock Holmes. Author Wincor latched onto a clever (or so he thought) gimmick for a book on Tibetan philosophy. Of course, Holmes does sort of play a minor role in this confusion. He makes a journey to Tibet. The reason given for it must be repeated to be be lieved. Conan Doyle tired of Holmes and had hisarch-enemy, Moriarty, kill him. The public protested so loud ly, however, that the author was obliged to revive his crea tion. He explained the two-year absence with this Tibetan ex pedition. Moriarty had told Holmes that he was a fictional being, and the sleuth, hurt by these accusations, went to Tibet to find out all he could about truth, existence, illusion, reali- Be the first in your block, "I said" be the first in your block to get hung up on the greatest hang up that was ever hung up . . .

Mr. Win cor has borrowed a little from Greek thinkers, a little from latter-day Western thinkers, and much from Hindu and Tibetan thinkers. The whole thing has been pieced together in a strange, overwrought way and presented to the reader as a lecture Holmes heard while in Tibet. Lama Nordup, the man giv ing the lecture, has one especially disconcerting habit in addition to his wordiness. He cannot limit his discussion to one topic. Instead, he shifts from one subject to the other, promising to return later. By the time the original topic is resumed, the reader is bound to be so disinterested that he could care less. At the end of Lama Nordup's lecture, supplementary notes are distributed to the listeners. Lest one should think that Mr. Wincor put himself out and "created" the remaining two thirds of the book, the truth is that he didn't The remainder was written by various persons, chiefly Bishop Berkely, the English philosopher. The selections in cluded are excerpts from "Principles of Human Knowledge" and "Three Dialogues." The Berkeley works are understandably better than the proceeding section. Though far HT!

Finally, to add to all the structural confusion present in the book, Mr. Wincor adds ex ceprts from the Tibertan 'Book of the Dead," which deals with reincarnation, rebirth, closing of womb-doors, prevention of rebirth, etc. Although this is a fascinating topic in itself, it is not enough to revive reader in terest or save the book. The basic premise behind the book, that of an introduction to Tibetan philosophy, is certainly not a bad one. But the unoriginal, amateurish way in which it has been handled speaks nothing for the author or his writing abilities. Whatever purpose he had in treating the topic in such a manner, he has (wise ly) kept it to himself. What emerges is a conglomeration of ideas that come and go but never relate to each other.
