Top French Film
Shows Saturday
The French film “Tomorrow
Is My Turn” will be shown by
Cinema Limited Saturday night
at 8:15 in Sexson Auditorium.
The story revolves around two
French civilian soldiers who have
been taken prisoners by the Ger¬
mans in 1940. It relates the psy¬
chological implications of their ex¬
periences.
It was directed by Andre Cay-
atte and awarded the Grand Prize
at the 1961 Venice Film Festival.
It is characteristic of Cayatte that
in his best films he leaves the fi¬
nal decision to his audience and
keeps his eye on the plausibilities
of human behavior under unusual
circumstances, according to crit¬
ics.
Screening with “Tomorrow Is
My Turn” is a color cartoon,
which sketches the experiences
of two youngsters who sneak out
at night to catch a bird. Directed
by John Hubley, “Moonbird” re¬
ceived the award for the first
prize best cartoon at the Venice
Film Festival of 1958.
Student tickets for $1 and sin¬
gle admission tickets for $1.25
may be purchased at the door.
Contest Slated

vidual departments to submit the
names of two girls as candidates
for OMD carnival queen.
The method of selecting candi¬
dates is up to each department.

After spring vacation a panel
composed of S. Luke Curtis, dean
of student activities; Armen Sa-
rafian, dean of instruction; and
Earl Holder, business manager,
will narrow the field to one girl
representing each department.

bert Bean, administrative dean of

The summer program will con¬
sist of two six-week sessions, the
first of which begins June 17.
Students may take a maximum of
seven units each session, though
most colleges will accept only six
for transfer credit.
Approximately ten courses will
be offered for the first time, ac¬
cording to Dean Bean. Two con¬
versation sections in French and
Spanish will be made available in
the foreign language department.
Other new classes slated are
Graphics, Botany E21, Psychology

Mrs. Adele Tingey, director, has
originated the choreography for
the feature-length presentation.
She believes that realistic theater
has been taken over by the movies
and television and that dance has
thus become an integral part in
the “total theater of tomorrow as
was true in the total theater of
the Greeks.”
She said, "There are times when
movement can carry the message
more effectively than words or
music and thus serve as a func¬
tional part of the work as a
whole.”
