DOUBLE FEATURE
’Village of Damned/ ’Scapegoat’ to Be Shown
“Village of the Damned” and
“The Scapegoat” will be shown
by the Interdepartmental Activi¬
ties Commission Monday at 3:15
p.m. and again at 7 p.m. in Sex-
son Auditorium.
Proceeds from the double bill
will be divided among participat¬
ing departments and used for
scholarship purposes. Tickets,
priced at 50 cents, may be pur¬
chased from departmental council
members or at the door.
“The Scapegoat,” taken from
the novel by Daphne du Maurier,
stars Alec Guinness and Bette
Davis. It is the story of a lonely
English university lecturer, vaca¬
tioning in France, who is tricked
by a stranger, his exact double,
into assuming the latter’s identity
and responsibilities.
He soon finds himself in the
ancestral chateau on the Comte
de Gue, accepted without ques¬
tion as the profligate nobleman
by the neurotic family. His emp¬
ty life is suddenly filled with the
Comte’s neglected personal and
estate problems. He attempts to
restore both to some degree of
harmony.
Only de Gue’s mistress recog¬
nizes the basic differences be-
. tween the two men as the plot
moves along to its melodramatic,
inconclusive finale. Guinness,
playing both the Englishman and
Frenchman, is, according to cri-
ics, admirable in the subtleties
with which he marks each individ¬
uality.
Miss Davis is described as one
who pulls out all the stops as the
dowager Countess, a drug addict.
“Village of the Damned” is the
story of mysterious events which
take over the village of Midwich
in the south of England.
One day at precisely 10:57 a.m.,
everything in the village drops
into a senseless stupor. As swift¬
ly as it struck, the mysterious
interdiction lifts.
Two months later the village
doctor discovers that every Mid¬
wich woman of fertile years is
pregnant, apparently without
male assistance. And soon strange
children are born to the village
with the purpose of ruling the
world.
Man’s struggle against these
interlopers from another world is
depicted in the movie.
The Red Cross, under the spon¬
sorship of Circle K, will operate a
blood bank today from 10 a.m.
to 2:30 p.m. in the music building.
This annual event is open to
the public and all students over 18
years of age. Persons wishing to

ment. Release forms are available
in front of Sexson Auditorium or
in 111C, student activities office.
The voluntary blood donations

tary persons or in such way as

Council Votes to Change
from Rep to Senate
Pasadena City College’s Repre¬
sentative Council voted to change
its name to Senate last week.
In order for the revision to be¬
come effective, it must be ap¬
proved by the Associated Student
Body Board and two-thirds of the
student body.
In the near future the legisla¬
tive body also hopes to have addi¬
tional “check and balance” power

This will be proposed along
with other constitutional changes
formulated by the fall Rep Coun¬
cil.
The council is headed by Dave
Pelligrin, president.

Speaks Tonight
Explorer Goddard Speaks,
Shows Film in Sexson Aud.
John Goddard, explorer and
film lecturer, will narrate his
film, “South America: Its Vulner¬
abilities and Strengths,” tomor¬
row at noon in Sexson Audito¬
rium.
The assembly is sponsored by
the Associated Student Body and
is open only to ASB book holders.
Goddard’s film focuses upon the
area from the Andes to the Ama¬
zon. It depicts the strengths of
the South American nations in
combating communism and com¬
ments upon the impact of the Al¬
liance for Progress.
Goddard has explored, traveled
in, and photographed 55 coun¬
tries. Reports of these expeditions
have appeared in magazines such
as National Geographic, Ameri¬
can, and Redbook.
More recently he has mapped
\ and photographed , three of the
world’s greatest rivers — the Nile,
the Congo, and Colorado. He led
the first expedition in history to

traverse the entire length of the
Nile River and the first to ex¬
plore the length of the Congo.
He conducted an archaeological
and botanical study of the entire
length of the Colorado beginning
at the river’s source 8000 feet
high in the Rocky Mountains.
Goddard is presently heading
the television show, “This Excit¬
ing World,” Thursday at 9 p.m.
on Channel 13. He belongs to
such organizations as Explorers

and to analyze, moderate, and
strive to eliminate intergroup
prejudices which disfigure and
distort religious, business, social,
and political relations, with a
view to maintaining at all times
a society in which the religious
ideals of brotherhood and justice
shall become the standards of hu¬
man relationships.”
The program of the NCCJ is
positive. It attempts to approach
more closely the national ideal of
building “one nation, under God,
indivisible, with liberty and jus¬
tice for all.” The program fol¬
lows a multiple approach at vari¬
ous levels to the intergroup situa¬
tion in the community.
The National Conference of
Christians and Jews was founded
in 1928 after the Alfred E. Smith
campaign for the Presidency of
the United States. At that time a
storm of anti-Catholicism swept
the country.
A group of eminent leaders de¬
cided there was an urgent need
for an organization to combat not
only anti-Catholicism but any
form of bigotry that tried to turn
one group of Americans against
another.
Ralph Bunche wrote to the
NCCJ, “Our answer, and the only
answer there is in a democratic
society, is to exert every possible
effort to eliminate undemocratic
practices and undemocratic atti¬
tudes, to do all that we can to
close the gap between our profes¬
sions of democracy and our prac¬
tice of it.”
The NCCJ sets this forth to
Americans as a solution to preju¬
dice, fear, and bigotry.
