SECTION TWO CRITIQUE—One 'of the greatest mysteries of the literary and en tertainment world, to me, is why the ’ producers of the Tarzan movies so distorted and misrepre sented the character of Tarzan in the Tarzan films. There is not; the slightest resemblance of affinity of concept and portrayal between the original -Tarzan and the movie version. A greater mystery, it also appears to me, is why Edgar Rice Burroughs, the author of the Tarzan books, a allowed this grotesque misrepre " sentation of character to be car ried out. As every reader of the Tarzan novels knows, the original Tarzan as conceived by Burroughs, although ' reared by '-apes in the jungle, grew into adulthood as an educated man, a gentleman, a scholar and an En glish lord in his own right. The sharp contrast between Tarzan’s jungle world and its modern and civilized counterpart is, in my opinion, the necessary ingredient that makes the Tarzan stories so Negro Communities Compete For Honors In E.

It is this very contrast of scene and activi-! ty that opens up a wealth gs in- ! triguing plot conceptions. And as the reader of the Tarzan books also -knows, the mo'des present Tarzan in an entirely dif ferent characterization. The! movies cast the jungle god as an uneducated, primeval human beast, with all of the physical attributes of the literary Tarzan, but with none of his intellectual: awareness. This ‘‘Me Tarzan;! you Jane” bit is -nauseating, i Missing is the completely satis fying rapport between Tarzan’s jungle world and his jungle l friends; and Tarzan’s human world and his human friends. This, to me, is the golden thread that runs through the Tarzan; books and was as Burroughs in tended when he wrote I hem.’The first Tarzan book, Tarzan of the: Apes, was published in 1914, 'and it was so tremendously successful it was followed up by # long series of Tarzan novels.

I wonder if he is like a barber I once knew. He wore a small, round skull cap while at work, because he said it gave him balance and j confidence, and he couldn’t work without it. Maybe it goes deep er than just the superficial cap the cap is a subconscious haven ,j to protect us from tile unrest and uncertainty of this world we now live in.
