In times long past, on the night of the Saint Walpurgus
Teast, it was said that witches conducted wild demonic
orgies in the mountains of Germany.
The annual Walpurgisnacht festival scheduled for
Friday at the Nebraska Union probably won't turn into
a demonic orgy, but the evening promises to be enter
taining. The National Touring Company of Second City will
headline the night, appearing in the Centennial Room at
7:30 p.m.
The Second City is known for producing talented
comedians. Veterans of Second City include Dan
Aykroyd, John Belushi, Bill Murray, Robin Duke and
Gilda Radner, all of Saturday Night Live fame.
The National Touring Company was formed to
provide national exposure for Second City Television.
The troupe consists of six players, who will perform two
hours. Tickets are $3 for students and $4 for non-students,
said Gail DiSabatino, program coordinator for
Campus Activites and Programs.
One of the new additions to Walpurgisnacht will be
mudwrestling, which will take place in the cellar of the
union from 10 p.m. to midnight.
Sixty people will be allowed in each match, DiSabatino
said. Tickets for activities will be sold for 35 cents each or
3 for SI . Mudwrestling will cost one ticket.
Cindi Porter, chairperson of the Walpurgisnacht
committee, said while some activities will charge
admission, there will always be some free entertainment.
"We want to provide a variety of entertainment for
anybody who wants to come and just walk around all
night," she said.
Other events at Walpurgisnacht include: several movies,
folk dancing, a rope twirler and guitarist Jim Salestrom.
Porter said Walpurgisnacht, now in its ninth year, is
designed to provide entertainment for as little money as
possible. The evening showcases local and national talent,
she said.
Walpurgisnacht is scheduled to begin at 7 pjn. and end
at 2 a.m.

One fine quality of "Xica" is the faraway feeling of
Xica's empire; however, the film does not appear as slick
as originally intended. But it works regardless, largely
due to Motta's performance. There are welcomed stereo
types that transcend the language barrier of the film,
which is in Portuguese with subtitles.
"Xica" is showing at the Sheldon Film Theatre tonight
through Monday. Screenings are at 7 p.m. and 9:15 p.m.
with a Saturday matinee at 3 p.m.

jo 2 less' Place:
Discover joy of
By Jeff Goodwin
If they ever have a character from Omaha on a TV
sit -com, you can bet that Joe Tess' Place will assume
the same legendary status that Tony Paco's Hungarian
llotdogs enjoys on "MASH.'"
And now Joe Tess has come to Lincoln. Located at
J4th and Q streets, right next to Arby's, the new Joe
Tess' is only a stone's throw from campus.
Joe Tess', for those of you who don't know, is a
popular Omaha restaurant that has been around for
Review
years, specializing in seafood.
Well, perhaps lish would be a better description,
since the main dish is good ol' Missouri River carp. OK,
carp is not up there with lobster or swordfish, but
don't be deceived by appearances. The fish is good.
And, perhaps more important for the student who can
only spend S2 a week on food, it's cheap.
The fish is sold in either dinners or sandwiches. (Al
though the term sandwich is an euphemism. The only
bread is a small unappetizing piece of rye.)
Dinners include cole slaw and a generous helping of
jacket fries. Prices for the dinners are $2.80 and $3 -and
they're well worth it.
The sandwiches are also inexpensive, the cheapest
being 95 cents.
For those of you who aren't enamored with carp,
there is also shrimp, oysters and chicken, all at reason
able prices.
The surroundings aren't very fancy, but then you're
not going for that, anyway. Give it a try. You, too,
can discover the joys of carp.
