Warm Weather Brings Out Skates
Roller skates have remained somewhat of a novelty on a campus that is currently overcrowded with bicycles. Sophomores Jan Henry, Naples, Italy; Amy Sanders, Roswell, N.M., and Cindy Lawrence, Decided to take advantage of Sunday's warm
weather by roller skating along the Jayhawk Boulevard sidewalk. Other people around Lawrence found the balmy weather conducive to kite walking, motorcycle riding, car washing, baseball or simply taking a walk.
'Sunday' Emphasizes Time
By STUART CLELAND Kansan Reviewer
The days of the week are used as unchrictive subtitles in John Schlesinger's new book, "Sunday, Bloody Sunday," *Varsity Tuesday*, and *Thursday*. They're not really there to let us know what day it is, but simply to tell us, almost subliminally, that the days are full of surprises. And even as we live it, Daniel Hirsch and Alex Greville know that, and because they are getting past their primes, they feel it with a sort of detached panic. Bob Chisel knows plenty of time ahead of him, and uses that knowledge against the other two. Together, they form the triangle around which Bloody Sunday" revolves.
FROM PENELOPE GILLIATT's highly intelligent and subtle script, Schleinger has made a perceptive and intriguing him from the flashiness that his humor provides to works, such as "Midnight Cowboy". Rather than trying to impose a message on us via the camera, he draws the film slowly by letting his words and deeds tell us what he and Miss Gillatt are trying to say. The result is a
presence and share Bob Eklins (Murray Head), a young designer, plays pieces on out each of his plates the going gets rough, he has, for a while, the best of both worlds, until bored and irresponsibil-
PETER FINCH and Glenda Jackson have both been nominated for *Women in Film* (as they say) and it is why. Bringing to their characters a lived-in quality, they succeed in convincing us that they do not exist solely within the confines of a film but also within the afterwards. Finch especially is constantly fascinating as he captures every nuance of a man whose homosexuality is only one choice among his many from than being the single reason for
it, as in so many other films.
Playing Hirsch with cool restraint, he becomes outwardly every messy. Miss Jackson is also fine as a woman; competent, yet very unsure, woman who knows only that she is not content with her job, her surroundings or herself. Biting at her skin and trying not to cling to Eikins, she communicates achingly the fear of failure.
AGAINST TWO SUCH strong performances Murray Head is at a definite disadvantage; still, he calls the charmingly callous Eilings.
Overshadowing the characters is the film's constant theme: the inability of modern men to successfully communicate their
needs and longings to each other. Unbrokenly stressed, it runs continually throughout. Hirsch doesn't know how to phrase her letter of resignation. Her parents, in one short scene, are shown as being cut off from one another. York on the telephone. York on the telephone. Eventually, of course, this communication breakdown themselves. Each member has different motives which the others cannot grasp, and which they do not understand. It a bleak thesis, and one which can be debated. But agree or not, "Sunday, Bloody Sunday" stands as one of the year's most exciting and provocative films.
'Kidnapped': Flawed Fun

"Kidnapped" (Hilcock 1) has plenty of faults, but on the whole is an adventure film that the faults oem half accessoried in films we see.

Jack Pulman has written a tight, fast-moving screenplay base. Robert Loeber and his sons, Jeanen "Kinderstein" and Leonard "Davall Bourlow". With a few digressions it follows the travel of young DAVall Bourlow, who leaves home to lead him, after his father's death, to his uncle Ebenebezer's friendly welcome, through his wife, Adrian Ebenebezer, out of a mutiny and shipwreck, across the Scottish highlands in the company of a French spy, and clutches of an unjust government and finally to the wealth and

Many people won't bother to go to "kidnapped" because they saw another version on Walt Disney years ago and associate it with "classics". Many simply won't have time to see it because they're too busy rushing to the movies or seeing "The Devil's" for example; rather than those they find most appealing. And some who do see it will be turned off by the fear of embarrassment or straightforwardness. But many will find "Kidnapped" a refreshing, though faulty, relief that have complex problems that have been filling Lawrence screens lately.
Current Paperbacks Offer Variety

A topical contribution is Robert Kavanaugh's THE GRIM KAVANAGH, 95 cents), one of several examinations of the changing campus scene. Kavanaugh sees a terrified territory by a future with "scene" in its wake, "scene" is a shocking one, and one without optimism unless administrators and faculty change their ways. This sound new!

The first is Leonard Slater's THE PLEDE (Pocket, $12.95), a true story of how the Jewish "underserved" supplied arms to the emerging state of Israel many years ago.

One of them is Norah Crest (35, 95 cents), about a school mistress who comes back from missionary life in Africa, looks at the girls in a private school in England. But h! she the school is not all it is purported to be. Jill Tattersall's (35, 75 cents) place is about a girl who exchanges places for a few weeks with a middle-aged governess at a school in Guess's town. What? Mystery haunts the manor. Finally in this category there's Arlade "Pritchett" his girlfriend, Medal, 75 cents). This little jewel takes place in Britain in the age of Victoria, and it's about a governor who must take her wives to Harleigh, in wild old Wales.

During that time Brookling will also select replacements for members of the "Hamlet" cast summer festival and lodge.
