It’s Time For...
A Skin Flick?
By The Anonymous
Reviewer
Assigned to do a movie
review, I was deviously;
assured it would be an
educational experience.
Webster defines experience
as: something personally
encountered, undergone or
lived through. I prefer lived
through.
Yes, it was also educa
tional as promised, I learned
many new words, some of
them not even to be found in
a dictionary.
The film masterpiece I
viewed at the Star Art
Theater, was entitled, “Doc
tor’s Teenage Dilemma”,
despite that no one in the
movie appeared to be under
the age of 35.
The doctor, a sexologist,
is doing his part for society
by helping people overcome
their sexual problems aided
by an extremely devoted and
capable nurse. The nurse, in
a white stockings and garter
theme, looks after the
Doctor’s male clientele.
Perhaps because of his
beady eyes and constant
heavy breathing the doctor
must continually remind his
patients of his profession,
“But, I am a doctor Miss,
now please lift up your dress
and...” He repeats this vague
phrase at least eight times
through out the course of the
movie, in a condescending
voice.
Included in this dedi
cated “professional” man’s
entourage of patients is a
Casino Night: A Loser V View
By Ray Martin
Staff Writer
These words are meant
for those unfortunate few of
you who did not lose
everything they owned on
Casino Night. You missed
the joyous moments of
sweaty palms, muttered
obscenities and jumping up
and down in frustration; and
that was just in the line to
the men’s room.
No, really, most of the
time I am a creature of logic,

Her standard line con

Definitely a little something
for everyone’s tastes.
Camera shots, which left
nothing to the most graphic
of imaginations, consisted
mainly of close-up shots.
The movie seemed to be
much longer than its actual
75 minutes, but then there
are only so many variations
on a theme.
Two of the more dis
turbing technical qualities
were: overexposed film (no
pun intended), which gave
everyone a curious pinkish
green cast, and the dialogue
was 30 seconds out of
synchronization with lip
movement. Not that it really
mattered, the cliches were
standard and the actions
self-explanatory.

choose to proceed cau

I exchanged one third of
my money, and passed
around a few booths for
awhile, winning here, losing

Liberal Art
Graduates
Unsatisfied
(CPS)--Once considered the
gateway to success, a liberal
arts degree may instead be
the route to restlessness.
A study recently com
pleted by N the College
Placement Council shows
that liberal arts graduates
are increasingly displeased
with their jobs and in many
cases would like to find
different places to work.
And to compound their
problems, humanities and
social studies students are
having more trouble just
finding a job—regardless of
how well suited it is to their
training—than students who
started college in the early
sixties.
The study was made by
polling a group of 127,000
freshmen in 1961 and
another 250,000 freshmen in
1966. A follow-up study
done in 1971 queried a
sample of each group to see
what they thought about the
jobs they got after gradua
tion and how their education
prepared them for their work.
The answers to both
those questions aren’t en
couraging for liberal arts
majors. Liberal arts degrees
aren’t as awe-inspiring as
they once were.
The combination of in
creased unemployment and
more sheepskin-toting job
hunters has created a
situation where “for the first,
time since the Depression, a
college degree does not 1
automatically assure em
ployment.”
rolling two green numbers in
a row.
It was all down hill from
there.
I had a near perfect hot
streak at the balloon booth.
The only problem was in
timing. I stayed there about
five minutes toolong. As I
was exchanging my last
pennies for some blue and
white scrip, I felt as low as a
submarine’s floor, and yet
back I went.
About thirty seconds
later I was staring at my last
five thousand dollars, while
watching an Egyptian, ama
teur dance group and
wondering where Ed Sullivan
was when we needed him.
About that time I started
searching for something at
which I couldn’t loose, and
there it was. ORGASMAfI
TRON. I remembered the
name from the great Woody
Allen movie “Sleeper”.
Shortly there after, I
found myself standing in
front of the kissing booth
holding three pieces of blue
paper. The girl tried her best
to convince me I didn’t have
enough money. Ordinarilly I
would have moved on, but at
that point I didn’t care about
anything, including keeping
up my image, so I went
ahead.
During the auction, I
found myself leaning on a
trash can watching the
winners, I couldn’t help
feel a small pang of
compassion for them as they
would never know what great
fun you can have losing
everything.
Does Your
Interest Lie
In Pizza?
Do you ever wonder what you are doing here at Capitol
Campus in Middletown where a business establishment can
rightfully claim to produce the best pizza in town, which is
no great achievement since there are only two and each has a
50/50 chance of being the best.
Did you ever consider your situation after you have
graduated and received that diploma and are ready to seek
employment in a country where many people are having a
hard time doing just that, finding a job?
Perhaps you are a person who has his faculties together
and know exactly what you are doing at Capitol (not
including, of course, watching “Happy Days” in the T.V.
lounge at 11:30).
And, you may well be a person who knows exactly what
job you are going to step into, with no doubts or second
thoughts, after that glorious and exalted day known as
Graduation Day.
If you are among this group, read no further, you are only
wasting valuable time that could be used for realization of
your goals.
Now that those people are no longer with us, let us get to
the purpose of this exercise, which I have chosen to do in a
rather roundabout way.
The truth is there are a number of people who have no
idea whatsoever what they’ll be doing in two years.
And, there’s the group of people who know what they
would like to do and are taking courses to help them get
there, but they still have a little doubt in their minds.
And, there’s the group who set up options for
themselves, so if they can’t find work In the area they like
best they can always take a different road.
It may be a good idea for you people to go to the
Counseling Center and make an appointment to have your
Strong-Campbell Interest Inventory evaluated. The SCI I was
one of the tests taken on orientation day, if you can
remember that far back.
The SCIIis not really a test. You can flunk. It’s more like
a service to help you consider what career might be right for
you, according to your interests. It does not tell you what
career to choose. It does suggest some that you would be
better off not pursuing. It does this by comparing your likes
and dislikes with those of perple who are established in
various professions.
From psychological research, the SCII establishes six
occupational themes showing how people can be described
or contrasted in a general way.
The realistic theme encompasses people who would
rather deal with things than people or ideas. They usually
have good physical skills but sometimes have trouble
expressing themselves with words.
The investigative theme groups people together who are
task-oriented, and enjoy solving abstract problems and are
original and creative, especially in scientific areas.
The artistic theme includes those who express
themselves in some type of artistic media and are often
sensitive and emotional.
The social theme people get along well with others and
are concerned with helping others get things done or being
leaders.
The enterprising people the salesmen of the world.
They know how to use words, and tell you what you want to
hear. They enjoy power and wealth more so than members of
the other themes.
The sixth theme, the C theme, are people who are
dependable, do not seek leadership or ambiguous situations
and are most effective at well defined tasks. C is for
conventional.
The SCII then has a list of 130 jobs that correspond to the
six occupational themes, and tells you how your interests
compare with those successful in these jobs.
So, if your score indicates your interests are high in the R
theme (realistic) you might consider being a craftsman or a
police officer or a farmer. Even though the thought of police
may instantly flash paranoia on your brain, since you scored
high in the realistic theme you do have something in
common with police.
l-themejobs include engineers, pharmicist and biologist.
Some A-theme jobs are musician or photographer. S-theme
includes social worker, priest or teacher. E-theme jobs cover
those of lawyer, life insurance agent or realtor, and typical
C-theme jobs include bankers, accountants or secretaries.
The SCII can only make suggestions according to your
interests. It will not tell you which specific job to choose.
So, if you feel you can make a better pizza, I wish you
luck.
