KU Flix Crix get kicks watching flix
For members of the KU Film Society, a night at the movies no longer holds the promise of escape from the day's worries.
To the almost 150 students and instructors who wear the "KU Flix Crix" button, an evening in front of a movie screen is an education in criticism, symbolism and directional technique.
In fact, "Flix Crix" means "film critic."
"We use that phrase to symbolize what we're trying to accomplish," said Richard MacCann, associate professor of radio-television-film and the Society's adviser. "After all, we're all critics in a sense; we have preferences that differ, we try to defend our views, and therein lies the fun of this. You can't watch these films without noticing fine details, such as how
the camera moves, sound techniques and the use of editing"
Formed last fall, the Film Society charges a three-dollar membership fee. Once a member, film-goers are entitled to see all Film Society-sponsored movies at a discount price and to attend all the Society's discussions.
"When we first started out, the membership fee was just to keep us out of the hole," MacCann said. "Actually, the showings have been so successful that we will be able to show free films for our members toward the end of the semester."
The Society's next offering will be a program of underground films to be shown at 7 and 9:30 p.m., Friday in 303 Bailey Hall. Admission for Film Society members will be $.75. All others will be charged $1.
RFK seeking support from future voters?
Many people assume that Sen. Robert Kennedy is going to run for President—if not in '68, then in '72 or beyond. His Wednesday visit to KU may not be an attempt to garner support for a '68 candidacy for presidency.
However, a backlog of supporters among the young "intellectuals" and "activists" in American universities, many of whom have not yet reached voting age but will by 72, will be useful in any case.
Sen. Kennedy stated Jan. 30 he would not oppose President Johnson for the democratic nomination "under any foreseeable circumstances." What circumstances would induce him to oppose LBJ are a matter of speculation.
In an early February Gallup poll, 52% of those polled favored LBJ for the Democratic nomination. Kennedy followed with 40%.
Until recently, Sen. Kennedy has wavered between a hawk or a dove position in reference to the Vietnam war. In a Chicago luncheon speech two weeks ago, he came out strongly against the present administration's policy in the war for the first time.
"Total military victory is not within sight or around the corner," he said. "It is probably beyond our grasp."
"The effort to win such a victory will only result in the further slaughter of thousands of innocent and helpless people," he
added. He sharply criticized "the policy founded on illusion," which will bring "anguish" to America.
Sen. Kennedy will speak at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday in Allen Field House. Classes scheduled for 1:30 will be cancelled.
