E'ue Lagoon
Cy PHIL GALANES
, Staff Writer
77ie Lagoon can safely be
recommended only to fanciers of those
lavishly produced coffee-table books
that-celebrate beautiful naked youths
disDortin themselves in natural settings.
Cinema
Directed by Randal Kleiser and
photographed by Nestor Almendros,
this solemn exercise in nudist-camp
lyricism is about a young boy and girl
shipwrecked on a deserted South Pacific
island,. And who find sexual pleasure in
each other without fear or guilt. If this
sounds interesting, let me assure easily
stimulate readers that the movie is so
revoltingly clean that it isn't the least bit
erotic.
As the two vapid teen beauties
(Brooke Shields and Christopher
Atkins) walk across the sand or go
swimming in the lagoon, the camera
caresses their bodies with utter
impersonality. Certainly nakedness has
no dramatic value in a movie that is all
splash and gleam, all ecstatic fish and
golden skin and pulsating palms.
"What are all these funny hairs
growing on me?" says Christopher
Atkins in the first bewilderment of
puberty. The yorst thing about The Blue
Lagoon is its excruciating sincerity. If
only some dirty impulses were churning
around in this Adam-and-Eve story, the
movie wouldn't be so boring.
Adapted from a novel written in 1903
by Henry DeVere Stackpoole, this fable
of natural innocence may have possessed
some liberating force at the turn of the
century. But the material can't possibly
mean the same thing in 1980, when kids
are celebrating their natural impulses in
every high school in the country.. The
implicit criticism of society has dropped
away, and what is left is hygenic fantasy,
infinitely prolonged, of two splendid
young bodies mating.
'The B'us Lagoon'
...at area theaters
Never mind that Brooke Shield's
eyebrows are elegantly plucked and that
her hair" falls in soft, clean waves over
her breasts ("my hubbies," as she
enchantingly calls them). Never mind
that the kids live in a sturdy bamboo hut
reminiscent of a split-level vacation
condo on one of the smaller Hawaiian
islands. What's worse than this unreality
is that the story is completely without
suspense, and the lovers have no
personality to speak of.
Living in nature hasn't made them
strange or wild; on the contrary, they act
like premature suburbanites their talk
is TV-generation teen banter.
Everything -has been done to make them
accessible to the young audience, yet I
suspect that kids will either roar with
laughter or hide their faces in
embarrassment.
Arriving in Chapel Hill as a student begins a bewildering and
scheduled way of living which lasts for at least four years.
But for refugee families resettling in Chapel Hill, the
adjustment is a much bigger, more complex adventure. Due
largely to the successful efforts of the Indochinese Refugee
Resettlement Coalition, in cooperation with the N.C. Catholic
Diocese, about 16 refugee families have resettled in the Chapel
Hill area since 1975.
For the last five years, area churches have, been sponsoring
refugee families with the help of the coalition. Although the
legal responsibilities of the church and the coalition arc
limited, both go beyond their "obligations."
"Legally, all the church has to do for them is find them
housing, a job, and help them obtain a Social Security card,"
coalition member Jo Baker said. "But actually, the church
does more than that. We feel it is our moral obligation to stand
by them until they are independent, whether it takes six
months or a year."
The Catholic diocese, operating from Raleigh, helps the
refugee families by paying their passage to the United States,
which costs about $300 per person. This is the only money the
refugees are asked to repay once they have secured
employment. The diocese also will give each refugee $250, if he
needs the money.
The churches and the coalition help the refugees face three
major resettlement problems: obtaining housing, overcoming
the language barrier and finding employment. Housing is their
biggest problem, since there is a lack of moderately priced
housing in Chapel Hill. Apartment managers are wary of
leasing apartments to families with three or more children.
Most Chapel Hill refugee families have more than three
children, so finding suitable housing has been a problem.
- The most recent refugee family, the Phans from Vietnam,
arrived in Chapel Hill Aug. 21. The Amity Methodist Church
is sponsorinz the Phans.
The family
is being housed
temporarily with the family of University zoology professor
Darrel Stafford, a member of the church.
The Phans showed their willingness to become a part cf the
American culture by changing their first names. "The Phans
wanted to feel a part of our American culture," Baker said.
"The parents, Chan and Hong, decided it would be nice to
rename the family with American names." The Staffords
he?ped by reading a list of American names to the Phan
family. Then the children Khoi, Thuan and Hanh chose
their new names, Karl, Bill and Maria, and the parents chose
John and Ann as their American names.
Ann and John Phan told horror stories of the Thailand
refugee camp where they lived for six months. A large
percentage of refugees die in these camps, waiting to be
relocated, they said. On their way to America, the boat on
which the. Phans were traveling was captured and robbed by
pirates at least 10 times.
"At least 10 new families have arrived in Chapel Hill within
the past year," Baker said. The United Church, the Newman
Center and Binkley Baptist Church have sponsored several
families.

Though it's still September, seniors
already may be wondering what they're
going to do when May rolls around and
they're tossed out of the University and
into the world.
For them, a trip to University
Placement Service in Hanes Hall can
help ease graduation qualms.
UPS, which is available to all seniors
and alumni, conducts a counseling
service, workshops and on-campus
recruiting visits to aid a student's
transition from campus life to a career.
It provides publicity about available
positions through job vacancy
notebooks, vacancy bulletins and
credential and resume files which are
open to employers and on-campus job
recruiters. The service has contracts
with hundreds of-corporations. UPS
schedules these companies for campus
visits so that students are exposed to a
number of alternatives before they seek
permanent employment.
Students may have their resumes sent
by the placement service to prospective
employers, or they . can schedule
interviews when a company is on
campus. They also have the option of
submitting resumes and credentials to be
kept on file at UPS in case jobs become
available within a year after they
graduate.
Literature on employers and an.
alumni contact file also are available.
"No one is going to hold your hand,"
UPS Director Joe Galloway said. "But
if the student is interested, he or she may
attend the many workshops we conduct,
ranging from identifying skills, interests
and talents to resume writing and mock
interviews."
Today at 3 p.m. in 209 Hanes there
will be an interview tactics workshop,
designed so students can practice
answering critical questions many
employers ask.
A series of workshops will be held
Sept. 22-30 to test marketability of
skills, to teach writing an effective
resume and to practice interview tactics.
For a cdmplete list of job-seeking
workshops, and the dates when
corporatio'ns are scheduled for
recruiting visits, students should visit
211 Hanes.

Improved academic performance is
the aim of a free UNC tutorial program
which began last week at Ehringhaus
Dormitory.
The program, sponsored by the Office
for Student Counseling, is designed
specifically' for freshmen and
sophomores because of staff limitations.
Tutorial sessions, though, are open to all .
students, said Joyce D. Clayton,
assistant dean of the College of Arts and
Sciences and program director.
Hayden Renwick, associate dean of
the College of Arts and Sciences, started
the program three years ago. It has yet
to achieve the degree of participation the
program sponsors hope for.
"We're hoping that we'll serve far
more students than we did last year,"
Clayton said. "The program has been
filled with minority students in the past,
but we serve any student who needs our
services."
Tutors are students with academic
averages of 2.5 or better, who have been
recruited by the Office for Student
Counseling.
Some of the tutors are volunteers;
others are in the workstudy program.
Most of the tutors also serve as minority
advisers. . "
Tutorial sessions are scheduled for
both fall and spring semesters and offer
