Actor, actress only reasons to see movie
By IVY MILLIARD
Surf Writer
There are two worthwhile reasons for seeing Romantic Com
edy Dudley Moore and Mary Steenburgen. Unfortunately,
these are the only two reasons.
Review
Moore-portrays Jason Carmichael, an established playwright
in search of a new writing partner. Although his role is not as
memorable as the title character in Arthur, Moore brings great
charm and his own particular wit to the film.
Steenburgen is even more of a pleasure in some ways because
she has unusual beauty and style. As Phoebe Craddock, Jason's
new partner, Steenburgen has found a role that suits her per
fectly with its shy vulnerability, subtle humor and wistfulness
that hides an iron will.
In the film Phoebe falls in love with Jason a love she
believes is unrequited and settles for becoming his best friend.
During the years of their partnership, they become very close
but never reveal their true feelings because Moore is married.
When Jason has an adulterous fling one of the truly funny
parts of the movie an enraged Phoebe terminates their part
nership and marries Lou (Ron Liebman), a reporter bound for
Paris. Jason's wife divorces him soon after this and his career
begins to go downhill. Several years later Phoebe returns and
their strange relationship picks up where it left off due to a quirk
of fate.
Bernard Slade has adapted the screenplay from his stage play
by the same name. Although the dialogue moves smoothly, the
large time lapses between fade-ins are very confusing because
the amount of time that has passed is unclear. Director Arthur
Hiller did not correct this flaw and the effect is distracting. The
film version also lacks the intensity and vigor of the stage play.
Too often the action lulls the audience instead of grabbing it.
The idea for Slade's story is rumored to have come from
Ernest Hemingway. It seems the author once developed a pas
sion for a famous married actress. Later, when she was divorced,
he was married and so they were "victims of unsychronized pas
sion." The same thing happens to Jason and Phoebe, but when it
finally seems like they might get together, nothing turns out as
expected.
Since the plot is based on the romantic involvement 6f a male
female writing duo, this film is reminiscent of another recent
film, Best Friends, which starred Goldie Hawn and Burt
Reynolds as writers in Hollywood. Romantic Comedy outshines
this film, especially in the acting department.
Despite disappointments, the combination of Moore and
Steenburgen gives the film enough chemistry to remain in
teresting. It should be hoped that Romantic Comedy will not be
the last time this pair will work together.
Street theater performers entertain and develop craft
By CLARICE BICKFORD
Staff Writer
Street theater, reaching people outside
the normal theatric community, is the
purpose of the Hit and Run Theater
Company.
Dome Pentes, Hit and Run's founder
and artistic director explained the concept
of the company's name as being there
and then gone, performing and leaving,
moving on to some other place.
Hit and Run consists of eight students
and amateurs, making a tight ensemble of
actors, writers, and directors. This di
verse group hopes to perform established
and original works in arid around the
Triangle area.
The members are not only doing plays,
but are also developing a craft with the
exercises and props.
Hit and Run's first production will be
Savage Love, by Sam Shepherd. A series
of poems about love and being in love,
the work is a challenge for the director
because it has no stage directions.
Through rehearsal and repetition, the
director comes up with a concept linking
the poems together. Different directors
put them together in different ways.
"It's a nightmare at one point and
great at another because the director can
do anvthins." Pentes said.
Hit and Run plans to perform Savage
Love at noon, Oct. 28 in the Pit and at
University Mall at 7 p.m. Nov. 2.
Pentes hopes the company will not on
ly do "Theater in the Pit," but will also
perform at soup kitchens, rock 'n' roll
clubs, street fairs and other public events.
With rehearsals daily, except Satur
days, involvement in Hit and Run is a lot
of work, but it is also meant to be a lot of
fun. "It's an art," Pentes said.
Hit and Run members in addition to
Pentes are: Hampton Allen, John Bilich,
Harrison Greene, Margaret Jemison,
Dora McAlpin, Elise Sugar and Mary
Catherine Williams.

NOTICE TO ALL STUDENTS ENROLLED
AT THE UNIVERSITY AT CHAPEL HILL
IrrThe Revised North Carolina State Plan for the Further Elimination of Racial Duality in the Public Post-Secondary
Education Systems, the following language appears (at Page 152) relating to "Student Organizations":
"It is the policy of The University that all student organizations sanctioned by the constituent institutions
shall be open to membership without respect to race. It is the duty of the chancellor and his subordinates on
each campus to require that every institutionally sanctioned student organization file with the institution a
statement of the organization's non-discriminatory policy. The chancellor or his subordinates, in coopera
tion with student government, shall take appropriate remedial action, after investigation, where charges of
racial discriminatioaJby such organizations are found to be correct."
Further, in the rules and regulations issued by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare for the implemen
tation of Title IX of the Education amendments of 1972, the following language appears Section 86.31(b).
". . .(I)n providing any aid, benefit, or service to a student, a recipient (institution of higher learning) shall
not, on the basis of sex: . . .(7) Aid or perpetuate discrimination against any person by providing significant
assistance to any agency, organization, or person which discriminates on the basis of sex in providing any
aid, benefit or service to students or employees:"
As of 10 October 1983 , the student organizations listed below have been officially recognized by the University Ad
ministration for the year ending 30 September 1984. Recognition is not granted unless the organization files, with the
Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs, a statement of its non-discriminatory policy. Any currently enrolled student may
examine the statement of non-discriminatory policy of any recognized student organization by applying at the Office
of the Vice Chancellor for Student Affairs.
Any currently enrolled student who applied for membership in any recognized student organization, was denied
membership, and believes the denial was based in whole or in part on his or her race or sex, should notify the Vice
Chancellor for Student Affairs.
