Ac- 'Burbs1 fair, but Feldman awful by Rick Piller Movie Critic Joe Dante directs Tom Hanks, Carrie Fisher, Bruce Dcrn, Rick Ducommon and Corey Feldman in a masterful blend of Alfred Hitchcock, Twilight Zone and Geraldo and makes a delightful film essay of modern day subur ban America. Tom Hanks plays Ray Peter son, a slightly befuddled execu tive who is home on a one week vacation. Ray, along with his slightly overweight and always obnoxious neighbor Art Wein- gartner, (played by Rick Ducom mon) begins to feel that all is not well at the Klopeck’s house next door. Together with Vietnam vet and neighbor Mark Rumsfield, played by Bruce Dern, they con coct a choice plan that will expose the slimy foreigners for the evil vermin that they are. The men know the “truth” in the first five minutes, but convinc ing their wives is another story. Carol Peterson played by Carrie Fisher feels that the “Killer” Klopecks are just misunderstood and haven’t been given a fair shake. The men though, are certain that foul play is involved in the loss of their mutual acquaintance Wal ter, and the Klopecks are involved. So like a modern day Fred, Bar- Piller's picks Rick Piller ney and Joe Rockhead they stomp ahead with their plan. The camera work is crisp and dear and pleasing to the eye. Dante spices up the otherwise fair movie into a film that can be treasured for years. The opening credits were done nicely. Industrial Light & Magic took the Universal globe and executed a perfect zoom from ten thousand miles out down to the affected cul-de-sac that stars in the movie. Corey Feldman sucks!!! He can only do one form of acting, and that is bad! Please Mr. Producers do not hire him, he tries to act like Bill or Ted but constantly falls flat on his face. Reply to Perry Lcnsen-Callas Sorry Perry but you are stuck with me. I know how depressed this makes you feel, but since this is Tammy Swartzendruber’s last term, Joe Lee and I are going to have to fill the paper’s comedy schedule. So if you want I could give you my plane ticket to Latvia, I don’t have any tickets to Estonia. I’m going to let this one go by, but if you or anyone else decides to pop off again I’ll have to deliver my answer a little more “directly” nudge, nudge, wink, wink say no more? 249-5801 Birthright 1515 N.E. 41st.

A permit is issued for each event serving alcohol. At Green River Community College beer and wine may be served in designated areas at spe cial functions. The college receives a permit from the Washington State Liquor Control Commision. The college catering service is responsible for checking the iden tification of the people being served. Of the other colleges Clacka mas received information from, North Idaho State’s policy is that no alcohol may be served on campus, Linn Benton does not have a policy for alcohol use at special events, and Mt. Hood Community College only allows alcohol “under special conditions at unique events.” “We haven’t had any critical situations come up on this issue,” Dickson said. “Right now it is on the back burner.” No meetings have been held concerning this issue, but a for mal list of guidelines should be finished sometime this spring.

The Oregonians will go to Costa Rica in the wintertime because “our winter is their summer,” Holley stated.
