New York Times reviewer Renata Adler calls it "a terrific movie fast, well-acted, written the way people talk." Robert Vaughn and Jacqueline Bisset co-star. Saturday Review critics named it on their "10-Best" list of 1968, citing a chase scene as "the most exciting fifteen minutes of cinema I've seen in I don't know how long." (At the Varsity, shows at 1, 3:05, 4:59, 7:04 & 9:09 p.m.) COOGAN'S .BLUFF More detective work, as Clint Eastwood comes to New York City. He plays an Arizona sheriff, sent to the city to bring back an escaped killer held there by the police. Somehow he gets drawn into a group of LSD addicts before completing his mission. Critics have singled out director Don Siegel's tremendously-effective action scenes. (At the Carolina through Monday, shows at 1, 3, 5, 7 & 9 p.m.) SKIDOO-Otto Preminger has misfired again, in his typical overblown manner. Stuffing this dreary comedy with a plethora of stars and absolutely no laughs, he has gained the dubious distinction of being placed on the Ladies' Home Journal's "10-Worst" List for 1968. You thought nothing could be worse than Preminger's HURRY, SUNDOWN? Well, this is! (Tuesday and Wednesday at the Carolina, shows at 1, 3:01, 5:02, 7:04 & 9:04 p.m.) J DURHAM Campus Calendar MEMORANDUM TO ALL STUDENT LOAN BORROWERS: If you are terminating student status at the end of this semester for any reason, a repayment agreement for your student loans must be completed and signed prior to your departure.

It's purely unrealistic escapist fun, but reviewers have greeted the comedy favorably. The Lions appear in the film and Alda went through three months of intensive training for his role as a rookie quarterback. Vince Lombard! and Frank G if ford also are featured.

David Niven plays a harried father in this dirty-minded comedy item; he knows his daughter's no longer a virgin, and an all-out search for the rapist ensues. It's condescending, unintelligent and totally unfunny. Of course Ozzie Nelson co-stars (which speaks for itself). Whatever turns you on. (At the Northgate, shows at 1, 3, 5, 7 & 9 p.m.) YELLOW SUBMARINE "One of the year's 10 Best" says Saturday Review.

(Starts Sunday at the Durham SIGNE Two Icelandic youths make tragic love while their families feud in the tradition of HERCULES UNCHAINED. The love scenes are beautiful, but the adventure is fake and stagy. Gunnar Bjornstrand doesn't live up to his Bergman work.

Director is Luis Bunuel, called by Saturday Review "a master of cinematic erotica." (At the Center, shows at 1:30, 3:25, 5:20, 7:20 & 9:15 p.m.) ELVIRA MADIGAN Newsweek called it "perhaps one of the beautiful movies ever made." A romantic fantasy with Pia Degermark and Thommy Berggren as 19th Century lovers in Scandinavia. Music is provided by Mozart and the color photography is poetic. A visual treat, even if it lacks dramatically, (at the Janus 2, shows at 10:15 a.m., 12:15, 2:15, 4:15, 6:15, 8:15 & 10:15 p.m.) Carolina).

RALEIGH DOCTOR DOLITTLE Rex Harrison is the vetenarian who talks to his patients, with Anthony Newley and Samantha Eggar in supporting roles.

Friday night's flick is TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD, starring Gregory Peck as Southern lawyer Atticus Finch, the role that won him a "Best Actor" Oscar in 1961. The film is based on the Pulitzer-Prize novel by Harper Lee. Telling the story of a Negro on trial for rape, the story is constructed through the eyes of Finch's two children, Scout and Jem. Their fantasies and fears are examined with poignant expertise and the entire film is an enriching experience. On Saturday night, a change-of-pace occurs with James Cob urn's recent comedy DEAD HEAT ON A MERRY-GO-ROUND. Judith Crist named this film as first-runner up to the "10 Best Films" of 1966. The film is about Eli Kotch, master swindler who races from crime to crime, always challenging himself to bigger and better deeds. He uses the profits only to scheme larger operations the story of a criminal who never keeps his money! Coburn is foiled by a bevy of lovely girls, including newcomer Camilla Sparv (who won an award for her performance as Most Promising Newcomer). Both films will be shown in Carroll Hall at 7, 9:30 and 11:30 pjn. on the two nights.
