Pago 12 Daily Ncbraskan Friday, March 15, 1SS5 1 i Reader unhappy with stripping story I have been a visiter on campus this last week. I have been pleased with the professional quality cf your newspaper. While reading the Wednesday, March 13th issue, I read something I was net pleased with. It was an article reporting on a stripping telegram service. The article wis objective and very gra phic in its presentation. By printing such a gra phic article, is this not promoting the idea by default? Does not human reason say that such things are not right? Parents do not instruct their children that "stripping" is the thing to do, do they? Do they not instruct them so when they become adults, they will behave moral? Hope fully this does not mean that Nebraska is throw ing away its moral character. I am deeply grieved that such an article appeared in an otherwise professional-looking newspaper. Brian Thompson Ames, Iowa 'Repo Mian 'fans could have saved $3 This letter is a supplement to the Bill Allen review cf "Espo Man," (Daily Nebraska., March 13) currently shewing at the Sheldon Film The UPC-East Sights & Sounds Committee showed "Repo Man" as part of a three-movie package Feb. 23 in the East Union Great Plains Eoom. In addition to "Repo Man," we had "Never Say Never Again" and "Valley Girl" in a program we promoted as a Pajama Party. If a student attended this program and wanted to see only one film, the cost for admission was $1. If the student saw two films, the price went down to 50 cents. To see all three free, the student would not leave. Not a bad deal, don't you think? But at the end of the evening, when "Repo Man" was shown, fewer than 10 students re mained. Through its Spring Film Series, UPC-East is providing some inexpensively priced entertain ment. I hope the Sheldon Film Theatre i3 packed for every showing of "Repo Man." Bat for the stu dents who do attend, remember, you could have seen the same film on East Campus for a few hard-earned dollars less. Thomas J.

I've read and I've heard a countless number of times that Brad Schluteibusch's portrayal of Danny Zuko isn't adequate. It's been said that he doesn't quite fit the image of a tough gang leader. The way I understand it, Zuko is merely a member of a gang who holds the respect of his peers. To me, Kenickie is to bis portrayed as the tough guy who leads the group. The reason why there is so much misunder standing in regard to Schluterbusch's portray:! of Zuko is because the UNL production is based in the origins! play and not the movie. Too many people don't realize this and go to see it with a preconceived notion of what it should be like . and then come out of the theatre feeling rather dissatisfied. I don't think that the ability of any of the actors or actresses should be criticized unless one knows for sure the differences between the character personalities in the play and in the Trad Ahlhrandt Pre-pharmacy, Junior Editor note: la lis rcvievr, Alien &zM f' 1 '4Trf?s?'f mpmi9 ma J&jfKim a" T' The Daily Ncbraskan welcomes brief let ters to the editor from all readers and inter ested ethers. - Submit material to the Daily Nebrasksn, 84 Nebraska Union, 1403 E St., Lincoln, Nei.
