Italian Fibn
To Be Shown
At Library
"Shoe Shine," the prize-winning
Italian film, is coming to the
famous Thursday. Friday and Sat
urday evenings at 8 p. m. in Love
Library auditorium. Admission is
75c. The movie, dealing with the
black market of the Roman
streets, is sponsored by the uni
versity YMCA.
The film has been billed as one
of the best foreign films in years,
receiving a special academy
award for 1947. Life magazine,
in naming "Shoe Shine" the pic
ture of the week, commented:
"SHOE SHINE" is the crypt'c
title of an Italian film which wLl
act on U. S. audiences like a
punch in the stomach. Like the
brutal "Open City" which depicted
the anti-German underground in
Rome, it paints a gloomy picture
of dead morality and miserable
avarice in a crumbling, war-
weakened civilization. The main
figures are two ragamuffin boot
blacks of Deacetime Rome. Caught
in the hopeless web of poverty,
their parents either dead or too
weary to provide for them, they
deal without conscious evil in the
black market and are caught and
sent to jail.
Corrupt judges and lawyers,
wholly unequal to the grandeur
minates in a Pop Concert held on
the plaza in front of the stadium.
Mr. Emanuel Wishnow is the con
ductor and all questions may be
directed to him. .Special permis
sion is needed to' register for Or

SDX to Hold
Rush Smoker
Sigma Delta Chi, .nen's hono
rary journalism fraternity will
host approximately 20 prospective
pledges at their annual smoker
Thursday, April 28.
To be held at 7:30 p. m. in the
faculty lounge in the Union, the
smoker will give the guests an
oportunity to become acquainted
with activities of the group, as
well as with undergraduate and
professional members of the so
ciety. Several working newspapermen
will be on hand to discuss cur
rent journalism problems.
Leo Geier, president of Sigma
Delta Chi, commented today that
the group has been active this
year publishing "The Nebraska
Newspaper," writing fillers for the
Nebraska Press association, meet
ing with Theta Sigma Phi, wo
men's honorary, and co-sponsoring
the annual Journalism ban
of their heritage, provide neither
justice nor mercy. The picture
ends with one boy dead by the
hand of the other."
TIME MAGAZINE has stated:
"Cinematically the picture without
pretentiousness, a masterpiece;
wonderfully rich and supple,
bursting at the seams with hu
mane sympathy, wisdom and cre
ative energy. "Shoe Shine" may
strengthen a suspicion that the
best movies in the world are be
ing made, just now (Sept. 1947)
in Italy."

In anybody's book, one of them
is hustling, strapping Charles H.
(Chuck) Percy. Said TIME early
this year:
Ever since he was an undergraduate
at the University of Chicago, Charles
H. Percy has been a young business
man in a hurry. To work his way
through college (his banker father had
gone broke in the depression), Chuck
rercy ran a wholesale business supply
ing the university's fraternities with
food, coal, furniture and linen. He also
held two other jobs, and captained the
rough, tough water polo team. In the
summer vacation of 1937 he took a job
at $12 a week in Chicago's Bell &
Howell Co. (cameras). For the next
Yt years he was in & out of Bell &
Howell, but was seldom out of the
mind of its president, Joe H. McNabb.
It was McNabb who persuaded
Chutk rercy to work for Bell & Howell
on weekends and vacations, and gave
him a full-time job when he graduated
from Chicago in 1941. He was put in
charge of a new department to handle
defense contracts. The contracts rolled
in so fast that six months later, when
Percy was 21, he was in charge of the
major part of Bell & Howell's business.
Just before he joined the Navy as a
seaman, McNabb made him assistant
secretary and a company director.
New Theme. Stationed on the West
Coast, Percy spent his spare time
studying West Coast industries and
the causes of strikes. His reports so
impressed McNabb that when Chuck
Percy was discharged (as lieutenant),
he became Bell & Howell's industrial
relations and personnel director.
v
Chuck Percy
The reports were impressive.
Percy began to streamline Bell &
Howell's management. In 18 months,
he reduced the number of departments
from 189 to 130, hopes to bring them
down eventually to 88.
New Boss. This week, rercy got the
go-ahead to finish the job and in his
own way. To succeed McNabb, who
died last week, the directors chose him
president. At 29, he is boss of a com
pany that sold $18 million worth of
motion-picture cameras and equip
ment last year, and earned a net profit
of some $2,300,000.
