continue to lose
Attendance at the Union
summer movies has grown
from 50 the first week to more
than 120 for a W.C. Fields
movie on July 9.
According to Art
Thompson, director of Union
programming, attendance will
probably drop off second
session because of fewer
students on campus.
Thompson said the summer
film series is losing money as
expected. He said film rental
can range from $50 to $100
and more, plus shipping. In
addition, a cashier and
projectionist must be paid.
"If we break even, it would
be the first time in the five
years I 've been here,"
Thompson said. Last year none
of the Union films made
money.
The weekend films lost at
least "a couple thousand
dollars". The special film series
also lost money and the foreign
film series lost about $50, he
said.
Attendance growing
Film attendance, however,
is growing all the time,
Thompson said. "People, who
come to the films, want to be
entertained by the most recent
and well-known films."
One problem encountered
by the weekend film series last
year was a move from the small
auditorium in the Union to the
Henlzik auditorium, which
offered more seating.
Thompson said there was a
problem making people aware
of the chaage. There also were
technical problems at Henzlik.
However, the weekend film
series will be in Henzlik again
this fall.
Thompson said he wants to
present a consistent series of
current, well-known films
next year. He said if he can put
together a list of good films,
students will look at the list
and remember the series.
However, if there are only one
or two good films, students
will forget about the entire
series, he said.
Older films successful
Older films were run this
summer because they have
been successful in the past. He
said in past summers films
which were seven or eight years
old would draw a crowd of 10
to 15 people. But, when older
films were shown, attendance
went up for the first time.
The movie series and the
John Biggs Consort concert in
June are the main Union
programming offerings this
summer.
There is also an art display
by Lynn Dance in the Union
lounqe. The record-lending
libr- located in room 122
Union auo is open.

THE NEBRASKA UNION
Presents
THE
SUMMED FILM
Second Summer Session
THE 1930's
August 6
Till-: COCOANUTS, 1929, 111 minutes. Starring the
Marx Brothers, Groucho, llarpo, Chico, Zcppo and
Mary Dumont, Mary Faton, and Kay Francis.
Directed by Robert I'lorey and Joseph Stanley. Based
on the play by George S. Kaufman and Morris
Ryskind with music and lyrics by Irving Berlin.
Cocoa nuts was the Marx Brothers first film with some
of their best stage routines including Groucho's land
auction in excruciating "viaduct" dialog. It is
probably the best of the Marx Brothers films for
studying, or better enjoying, their comic technique.
July 23
ROARING TWFNTIIS' 1939, 95 minutes. Starring
James Cagney, Humphrey Bogart, PriscUla Lane,
Frank Mcllugh and Gladys George. Directed by
Raoul WaLsh. Cagney and Bogart are their familiar
selves as very tough World War I buddies who clash in
a vicious bootlegging racket.
July 30
T1IF RAVFN' 1935. 76 minutes. Starring Boris
Karloff, Bela Lugosi, Irene Ware and Samuel S. Hinds.
Directed by Louis Friedlander. An operatic shocker,
in the finest tradition of the American Horror Film.
A surgeon obsessed by the works of Poe, builds an
elaborate torture chamber complete with pit and
pendulum.
Newsreels of the 20' s, 30's and 40's will be shown
with all the films.
the University of
Nebraska-Lincoln should have
received the BOG grant
application through the mail.
Ritchie said that all
beginning freshmen are
encouraged to make
applications for the grants.
"Due to the drastic cutback in
federal funds supporting other
aid programs, it becomes
increasingly important that
these applications be filed
promptly. This may be the
only source of grant funds
available for freshmen," he
said.
Under the BOG program, an
eligible student can receive a
maximum of $1,400 or
one-half the cost of attending a
post-secondary institution
whichever is less. The amount
which parents could provide
would be subtracted from the
above figure.
Application forms for BOG
are designed to determine the
amount which parents can
contribute. Completed forms
should be mailed to the address
indicated on the application.
After evaluation, the student
will receive a voucher which
will show the amount of
money which the parents
should provide. The voucher
should be taken to the
institution of the student's
choice where it will be
processed to determine the
final amount of the BOG grant.
500 receive degrees
About 500 students
received baccalaureate and
graduate degrees from the
University of Nebraska-Lincoln
