Pastoral Symphony setting or the
hilarious takeoff on ballet. You do not
have to be a freaky freak or a straight

entertainment. -G
Monterey Pop-It is obvious that
Wadleigh saw this film, because it is
similar in many ways to the later
Woodstock. Visually, this one pales
beside the pyrotechnics of Woodstock,
but the film is simpler and less
pretentious. The main concern here is to
give a concert and a mighty fine concert it
is. Joplin and Hendrix are extraordinary,
he much more so than in Woodstock. -G
(in stereo)
Joe -This film is seriously hampered by
poor plot development and a weak
ending. Also its laughter is rather smug,
shallow and easily-bought. Still the film is
very funny, and sporadically perceptive
and disturbing. Joe himself is a
fascinating, unforgettable character.-G
On a Clear Day You Can See Forever-A
movie that almost deserves respect for
being so audaciously artificial. Vincette
Minelli has ovbiously triad to revive the
musical techniques of the fifties and it
doesn't quite come off. That the picture
is entertaining is due almost entirely to
Barbra Streisand. Her singing has become
annoyingly mannered, but she is still a
great clown, and her performance is a joy
to watch. R
Gi- ng Straight-This movie botches all

Gould, though he is beginning to hammer
on the same note, is just the person to
put forth this humor. There are also some
sharp caricatures of college
administration types. Sloppy but
funny.-CH
Hello, Dolly Barbra Streisand is miscast,
the choreography is often poor and

way to waste your time, but it's much
inferior to the stage version. CH

revolution, and Omar Sharif is so poor
that he practically ruins the romantic part
of the story. Perhaps sensing this, David
Lean has tended to ignore his actors and
give us a pictorial essay which finally
degenerates into pretty picture post
cards. Surprisingly cold and
uninvolving. G (in 70mm)
My Little Chickadee-A comedy with
W.C. Fields and Mae West should be
much better than this one is. There is a
hint of star demands jn that the film has
little coherence or flow and the pacing is
extremely poor. Also both stars are far
from their best, giving forth with rather
weak lines and business.- R
Goodbye, Columbus-A rather nasty little
picture. Technically the picture is
moderately well done, but in stealing
from the Graduate, it loses most of that
movie's force and charm. The caricaturing
has become infantile, and we are
expected to sympathize with a spoiled
brat simply because her mother is a creep
and her father a slob.-CH
Myra Breckinridge-There are many hints
that this movie could have been
something, but as it turns out, it is really
nothing, mainly because everyone
connected with the production turns in a
thoroughly inadequate job. Next to Mae
West, Raquel Welch gives the best
performance, which certainly says
something about the others. There is a
rape scene which is surely the most
tasteless scene ever put on film.-R,G
C.C. and Company-An absolutely
terrible motorcycle picture, with lines
probably found in American
International's garbage can. Ann-Margret
and Joe Namath are even worse than ycu
would expect. D,G
Not reviewed:
Lovers and Other Strangers-a light
comedy which received extremely
favorable reviews. -D,CH
Never Give A Sucker An Even Break-An
old W.C.Fields comedy.-R
The Savage Wild Ten thousand feet of
film about wolves, for wolf fans, I
suppose. D,R
Hotel-A movie from a book by Arthur
Hailey, who wrote Airport. Most critics
found it pretty grubby.-D
R.P.M.-Another campus revolt movie,
and according to the critics, this is
probably the most revolting one of them

After a crisp fall afternoon in the
stands, where do you go next? To
the Saddle and Fox, of course. If
you won the game, it's the perfect
place to celebrate with gourmet
cuisine fresh seafood and prime
and choice beef are the house
specialties. If your team didn't
come out so well, you can bright
en your mood with one of the
Saddle and Fox's renowned flam
ing desserts. If you're trying to
impress a date, the Saddle and
Fox will do it. If you're married to
your date, a dinner like this will
prove you're not sorry about it.
Postgame activities begin at 4:30
and continue till midnight. Open
every night except Sunday, and
especially open on Saturday, so
make reservations early.

Specie! to ike DTI f
For a foreigner. Carolina h a great
place, inasmuch as one b more Lkely to
meet the "new Americans" here than any
other place Ln the southeast VS. They are
called by various titles, i.e. flower
children, etc. I like to call them the
"Pangis" of the VS. Basically. I like them
because they are quite unlike ' Babbitt."
Sometimes, they turn me off, though.
I met one of them the other day at the
Pickwick. He had been to my homeland
and had purchased hash for 25 cents a
gram and had seen those "beautiful, nice,
hospitable, passive, peaceful, etc."
people. The fellow was ecstatic in giving a
15 minute tour-in-absentis of my
hometown, telling me all about it, which
was nothing more than that "the town is
always one big happy trip." He had eaten
hot food and chewed "Paan with
'Tumbacoo' " and boy! Everybody was
happy; he loved their "happy abandon"
of the cares of life and attributed it
specifically to dope, Hari Krishna, and
yoga.
My friend now asks me fervently if I
could get him some work so that he could
live there for a couple of years. I wish I
could get him a job because I am sure he
would get back to the U.S. in two weeks
at the most. It is nice to visit the place
and go around, and close your eyes to the
confusion, poverty, heat, and disease of a
place; it is quite a different story to live
throuehit.
Every American who can raise 5500 is
traveling to Asia and other places these
days in the interest of looking for
something different. There is no harm in
that. The unfortunate part is they come
back with "groovy" ideas about the
theme of life after spending only a couple
of weeks there. I have talked with several
of these -travellers and they bring back
nothing more than a cheap

assessment of Eastern
cultures. Some of the more important
themes like Eastern serenity, the rational
man-woman relationship, the reverence
for nature and many other important
themes are forgotten either because of
false presumptions or because of the time
consumed in looking for the next cheap
hash place. This is unfortunate.
To take a "euphoric" view of the East
will not only be irreverent, but extremely
lopsided. Westerners have been somewhat

hasty in p.m;r judgments on the
supposed dopme. rtlipcsity and
passivity of the East. It ul be still more
hasty if the brand of western
inquisitors will take then as the East's
primary themes and acclaim them as
virtues.
The East sells cheap dope, but that is
not its virtue, its cultural theme. I hope
they raise the prices, especially lot
tourists. Dope is only one tiny part of the
East's many very important theme. It is
probably the tr.uic. i.e. the pamg of
homage to nature or a sense of cffenr.g to
nature, that is a major theme. Some
musicians take dope as an ecstatic device
but some don't. Those who do. never
take it as dope.
The East has lived on its hs rbs for all
kinds of purposes, e.g., treatment, health,
cooling the nerves and at times for
ecstacy, but never, never for euphoria.
The problem with the East is that it is
turning the East's herb treatment into
one big euphoric device. Just as it hjs
done with music, woman and mind.
You see. the major problem with the
West has always been to translate
everything into its utility function and
then advertise it through radio, TV or
Rock festival; so the west picks up this
suspect cultural theme form the East,
gives it a groovy title "dope," estimates
its utility function, broadcasts it through
its great mass media and ends up "living it
up" at Woodstock and other such groovy
places! Groovy! They say they are trying
to get away from utilitarianism, etc. But
the East does not have any objection to
the ways you want to "live it up." All it
desires is to please let it "live through"
and don't associate dope, Hari-Hari, and
commercialism with the East.
