□ THINGS TO DO Continued from Page 19C l^imonte also will remodel the lobby to keep the expected larger crowds from getting con gested in the area. And by the end of fall, he hopes to have the main auditorium remodeled as well. He may reduce the size of the screen, slope the floors for better vision and "hopefully" get new seats, he said. One aspect of Bijou remodel ing Lamonte suspects will be popular is the newly installed outside courtyard. ‘‘1 think the courtyard will be a neat little hang out.

Forum Continued from Page 22C Heritage music covers a wide spectrum of fields, including ethnic, folk, and world music of different traditions, and tradi tional jazz and blues, he said. "Knowing what will be received well in Eugene is always a problem." he said He has already lined up three acts for a fall series of concerts: the Red Clay Ramblers, a string Iwnd, Garnet Rogers, a Cana dian acoustic folk singer, and Obo Addy & kukrudu, who combines Western and Ghanaian drum music. Gosar said there are some pro blems in scheduling heritage music, especially since many of the bin names are not well known to the general student population. "I always welcome input," he said. "I may have to refer a student to another coordinator, but even that is useful to me and other members of the forum." Other members of the forum include Popular Music Coor dinator Jim Carlton. Small Con certs Coordinator Harry Derlago.

Movie companies are making large amounts of money in the home video market and that in turn leads to the production of more films "After all. film companies don't reinvest in steel mills, hut more films.” he said. For its regular features, the Hijou tends to offer mostly special interest or intellectual art films. Lamonte said, although adding he dislikes the* term "art film." "We rarely show Hollywood films. That's not b<-cause I have anything against Hollywood films," he said. Generally, the films are one-half foreign or foreign language films, and the others are American "art” films that people generally have to pay more attention to. Dr as he said, "films as films rather than movie*." Regular features this summer included "Mv Life As A Dog." "Spalding (’.ray's Swimming to Cambodia." "Prick lip Your Kars" and "Working Girls." The Bijou late show also has a special attraction to college students, l^monte said they will show almost anything late at night. "The more outrageous the better.” he added This sum mer's late night showings in cluded the Jonathan Demme film “Something Wild." “Black Widow.“ “Reform School Girls" and “Lethal Weapon."
