the South, but all of his atten¬

own experiences of living as a
Negro.
Though Griffin was born in

situation there.

England. He researched college
graduate study for preparation of
school administrators, one in
school administration at Harvard

Boston University. 1

land, Ireland, Scotland, and Wales.

clubs.

DURING World War II Griffin

forces as liaison agent for the
evacuation of German and Austri¬
an refugees from France to Eng¬

ed the American army and served
in the Pacific where he was twice
severely wounded. After the war,

he returned to America to attend
schools for the blind. While blind,
he wrote two novels, “The Devil
Rides Outside” and “Nuni.” His
latest book, “Scattered Shadows,”
covers the ten years he was blind.
His vision was restored in 1957.
Renoir Movie
Screens Sat.
Jean Renoir’s “Rules of the
Game” heads Cinema Limited’s
program Saturday night at 8:15 in
Sexson Auditorium.
Single admission tickets are
$1.25.
“Rules” depicts a decadent
Parisian society and was directed
by Renoir, son of impressionist
painter August Renoir.
Premiering in Paris in 1939, the
picture was disastrously received.
The movie has had one of the
most unfortunate histories of any
film — far over budget, shot under
exasperating conditions of mobil¬
ization among employees, drastic¬
ally cut in an effort to make it
more acceptable, and finally the
negative nearly destroyed by
bombs.
In 1956, two young French cine¬
ma enthusiasts discovered 200
boxes of film which had been pre¬
served in a warehouse. After sev¬
eral years of work, they managed
to reconstitute the original ver¬
sion minus less than a minute.
This is the film we se now — “mor¬
dant, sophisticated, brilliantly
funny,” the tragedy of a man of
feeling in a society that has no
use for it. “An important, typical,
and memorable work by a master
. . .” commented the Manchester
Guardian.
