Luber is a PCC professor of English. His talk will be divided into three parts: Pound’s life; his po¬ etry, and his merit in receiving the Bollington Award for Poetry by the Library of Congress. The discussion of his life will center around Pound’s wartime criticisms of American policy. For this he was arrested in 1945 and brought back to the United States on charges of treason, and because of ill health, he was judged unfit to stand trial. HE WAS committed to a men¬ tal institution, but continued to write, and his reputation as an influential poet remained undi¬ minished. He was released in 1958 and returned to live in Italy. Luber will analyze Pound’s poetry for its own value, but the question will be raised of separa¬ ting the poetry from the man. The inconsistencies in what Pound said about America and in what he wrote will be examined along with the question of wheth¬ er he was a great poet. A commission of famous poets annually awards the Bollington Award for Poetry to the individ¬ ual who has written the best poetry of the year. Pound, as a recipient of the award, will be analyzed for his qualifications. T.S. ELIOT wrote “Pound’s lit¬ erary criticism is the most impor¬ tant contemporary criticism of its kind.” Among Eliot’s works are “The Waste Land” and “Perso¬ nae.” The English Council invites all to attend this second lecture in a Marlon Brando Stars in Movie “The Ugly American,” starring Marlon Brando, will be the Inter¬ departmental Movie to be shown on October 24 at 3:30 and 7:30 in Sexson Auditorium. Like the novel by Eugene Bur¬ dick and William J. Lederer, on which it is very loosely based, this study of American aid in a southeast Asian country contrasts conflicting personalities and ideo¬ logies. Marlon Brando, as the new American ambassador to fictional little, unstable Sarkhan, is replac¬ ing an ineffectual predecessor, and is chosen partly because of his good relationship with Deong, the country’s popular nationalist leader. He discovers that the chief cause of violent local outbursts of anti-Americanism is a United States project, Freedom Road, being built into the interior as an economic improvement, but la¬ belled by Communist propaganda as a military highway for the war¬ mongering capitalists. Shocked to find that Deong, a long-time friend, more or less shared these views, the ambassa¬ dor mistakes his nationalism for an accepttance of the party line. Mutual misunderstanding and mistrust — Communist inspired and supported — build up the drama which is filled with in¬ trigue, riots, revolution and mur¬ der. The movie is sponsored by the Interdepartmental Activities Com¬ mission, which consists of the English, Life Science, Mathe¬ matics, and Social Science Coun¬ cils. Tickets, priced at 50 cents, are available at all four depart¬ mental offices, as well as at the box office on Monday. series of five talks.

Among De Rosner’s profession¬ al credits are the Edinburgh Film Festival winner “Hunters of the Deep,” a TV Emmy for “TV Uni¬ versity,” and the recent “The Legend of Aku-Aku,” a wide screen adventure feature which he produced, wrote and directed. His better known screenplays are “The Thirteenth Apostle,” “And One Survived,” “From Man to Man,” and “The Phantom of the Himalayas.” He authored “Black Gold in Royal Veins,” and “God Complex.” Most recently he has concen¬ trated on searching out and re¬ constructing the ancient Western Hemisphere civilizations in Chile, Peru, and Easter Island. The public is invited without charge to hear the lecture. Future forums will be offered by Gore Vidal, Dr. L.S.B. Leakey, Lennox Tierney, and Sir Alec Douglas-Hume, among many others. Karate Show Stars Parker The Associated Men Students invite all PCC men to a karate demonstration at 12 noon, October 25, in the Men’s Gym.
