VIEWS
By 5HIRLEY FOWLER
Although the "World of Suzie
Wong" may not be the honest-to-goodness
true-to-life world of
the modern- refugee in Hong
Kong the motion picture presents
an entertaining and thought-provoking
story.
Pretty Eurasian Nancy Kwan
makes her film debut as the
Wanchai girl Susie Wong. The
tiny actress mixes child-like in-
nocence with worldliness in the
title role of the colorful film.
William Holden always a com-
petent actor does an outstanding
job as the American architect
(Robert Lomax) who devotes a
year of his life ito discover if he
has a talent for painting. With
Suzie as a model and Hong Kong
as a backdrop it is almost unbe-
lievable that Holden is not an in-
stant success.
Sylvia iSims Michael Wilding
and Laurence Naismith give ex-
cellent supporting performances
as the British girl who falls in
love with Lomax; the business-
man who takes a fancy to Suzie;
and as ithe banker who introduces
Lomax to his daughter and into
Kong Kong's upper-crust society.
Clure director of university
bands.
While on tour the bands will
present programs in Snyder La-
mesa Denver City Plains Semi-
nole Pecos Van Horn El Paso
Ysleta Ft. Davis ' and Alpine
Texas and Hobbs Jal Eunice and
Carlsbad N. M.
Featured performers of the
Cowboy Band will be Lynda
Lynch of McAllen and Barbara
Porter Monahans twirlers;
George (Pierre) French of Angle-
ton whip artist; and Billy Ray
Johnson of Clinton Ark. trick
rope artist.
Soloists for the concert band
will be Donald Hanna of Ray-
mondville clarinet and Ronald
Henderson of Abilene trumpet.
The program for the tour will
dnclude semi-classical selections
popular numbers and novelty
tunes McClure said.

ures show per capita consumption

One of the sweetest roles of the
bitter-sweet motion picture was
the character of Gwerary Lee
played by Jacqueline Chan. Buck-
toothed bespecteckled skinny
Gwenny Lee will win your hftart
as she affectionately knits socks
for "Lobert" Md'u6tes a letter
written by her 'only love.
Bright spots of the film 'were
the paintings of Miss Kwan the
views of Hong Kong (both in the
refugee district and in the mod-
ern section) and most definitely
the acting.
But the brightest spot of all
was Miss Kwan herself. If her
acting had been only adequate
instead of excellent she would
have still been a success for the
newcomer has a certain charm
not normally found in today's
screen stars.
Having never been to Hong
Kong we cannot say how au-
thentic the filming was. Having
never been on (the brink of star-
vation we cannot say what we
would do under the circum-
stances. We do believe however that
if our lot were as hard as Susie's
was painted to be and if we were
forced into such a degrading oc-
cupation to provide for ourself
and our baby we would not be
able to afford such a varied and
colorful wardrobe as Miss Kwan
wore in the movie
"The World of Suzie Wong" is
another of the apparently pop-
ular films on low morals and oth-
er unmentionable subjects. The
movie contains something how-
ever that is not found in other
films of the same subject matter.
Perhaps it is superb acting
casting and filming. Perhaps it is
because the story itself is as much
make-believe as Suzie's air castles
are aboutherself and her station
in life.
Pokes Ram WT-
(Continued from page 3)
63.4 per cent while WTSC hit 17
of 24 for 70.8 per cent.
The Cowboys took an earlyv
lead but the Buffaloes kept the
margin narrow and the Pokes led
47-40 at the half.
In the second period the Pokes
hit the court hot and began to
strengthen their lead.
West Texas' leading scorer
Keith Blair who entered the
game with a 13.8 average was
held to only four points by H-SU's
Barry Oxford and Paul Hinds.
In the Texas Western game Sat-
urday night starters are expected
to be Kissinger Martin Menden-
hall Hinds and Richard Nelson.
The letter "e" occurs most fre-
quently in the English language.
The least frequent is "q".
