Almost Anything Goe s At first glance at the record it would seem that 'Penn State stu dents don't .care too much about what they're seeing so long as it's a movie. . The quality. of a picture has nothing to do with its success in State College, according to Carl .Beckdel, manager of the Cathaum Theatre. The house may be .quite empty one night, and the next eve ning thesame picture will provoke a line of anxious movie-goers half way down the block. It's all 'a matter of chance if you're catering to Penn Staters, and such things as the weather, dances, and sports events are more likely to keep them away from as pic`t•ure, than unfavorable reviews in city papers. But don't make the mistake of thinking that unsuspecting college students can be led to see any old picture like lambs to slaughter.

Just. such a rev olution was staged during the run of the much-publicized Margie Hart opus, "Song of the _lslands," which was one picture that obvi ously didn't live up to previews. The crowd of disillusioned thrill seekers that picketed the theatre very definitely voiced its disap proval of the film's lack of artis try. Last week's offering, "Wings and the Woman," called forth an other storm of protest, but that was from sheer disgust rather than disappointed hopes. And to prove just how cock-eyed the whole set-up.is—reflect on the point that though bluebooks should logically make for bad business, movie attendance shoots up ,when a siege of exams sets in.
