Variety to Head'
MSC Pics Sunday
Variety is the keynote in Sun
day’s version of “Operation Flick,”
the Memorial Student Center’s
regular Sunday afternoon free
film, set for 3 p.m. in Rooms 2A-
2B of the MSC.
Included on the hill are “Army
Explorers in Space,” Van Gogh—
From Darkness into Light” and a
sportsreel featuring college and
pro football and an international
horse race.
“Army Explorers in Space” Is
a color film recently released by
the Ai'my, giving the story of the
development and launching of the
earth satellite, “Explorer,” from
Its design stages to the final count
down and firing at Cape Canaveral.
The many problems encountered
in the filming of the featm-e-
length movie “Lust for Life” are
shown in “Van Gogh—From Dark
ness Into Light.” Revealing some
of the technical mysteries of mod
ern motion-picture making, the
color film recreates many of the
actual scenes painted by Van Gogh
and shows how some of them had
to be rebuilt.
In highlights of the sportsreel,
Army beats Texas, then is tied
by Pittsburgh. Navy loses to
Notre Dame, surprising North
western knocks Ohio State out of
the Big Ten championship, and
Ohio State hands a defeat to Iowa,
champs of the Big Ten conference.
