ing, started with modeling
and television commercials.
His martial arts know how
got him his first film assign
ment as technical advisor for
“Melinda”.
Black director
Hugh Robertson took some
screen tests and was rocked
to find that Jim gave karate
a wild look, like a blending of
combat and ballet.
So the
technical adviser was turned
into a co star.
In “E n ter The Dragon",
which is the first martial arts
movie to be made by a major
Hollywood studio. Jint hunts

"I like the dramatic part of
acting, the talking and the
emotional things," Jim will
• tell you.
“But karate has
to be karate What the hell,
that's the world I come
from."
" I’ll never give it up," he
says. "Sure, Hollywood has
given me things I had no
reason to expect.
Not just
money. I get stopped on the
street and in stores; people
ask for autographs.
But
karate brings me feelings I
can’t explain, just that they're
good and I can't get them
any other way."

Miss Garewal, who plays
the sensual courtesan, Kam
ala. was starred in Satyajit
Ray's "Days and Nights in
the Forest", has 22 motion
pictures and a half dozen
awards to her credit. She is
in great demand by Indian
directors, with contracts ex­
tending through 1976.
"Siddhartha" is the dis
armingly simple story, set in
the India of 25 centures ago
and cast in the form of an
allegory, of a young Brah
mim named Siddhartha whose
search for a meaningful way
of life -- from the age of 18
to his death as an old man
takes him through various
experiences until he atttains
the oneness and harmony
with himself.
Producer Rooks, whose film
is the fulfillm ent of a 16 year
ambition, is a widely read
student of Indian literature.
He has made some 25 trips
to India since he was 19 and
had little difficulty choosing
locations for "Siddhartha".
His first feature film, “Chap
paque", won the Silver Lion
at the 1966 Venice Film
Festival.

major events of the World
University Gaines direct from
Moscow. USSR via satellite
August 15-26, Program M an­
ag er Gordon W h ite an ­
nounced recently.
The nation’s Teading stu­
dent athletes will compete
with teams from more than
70 countries in basketball,
track and field, gymnastics,
w re s tlin g , sw im m ing and
d iv in g , tennis, v o lle y b a ll,
fencing and water polo. Ore­

Dave W ottle, Rev Robinson
who missed the Olympic finals
because of a coach's error,
and Steve Center, runner up
to M ark Spitz in the 200-
meter freestyle are all ex­
pected to make the trip.
Most of the best foreign
athletes will be competing.
Eligibles include double Gold
Medal winner Valery Borzov,
basketballer Alexander Belov
of USSR, and track star
Heide Rosendahl of Germany.
Unlike the Olympics, to which
they compare in international
athletic prestige, the World
University Games are limited
to athletes enrolled in col
leges or
u n iv e rs itie s --
undergraduate or graduate -
a n d who are under 28 years
of age.
Ten hours of programming
to cover all major events will
be telecast. Because of the
time difference (Moscow is
ten hours ahead of the Pacific
Coast) most of the events
will be telecast on a delay
basis, in much the same way
that the Munich Olympic
Games were seen. Television
coverage will start Wednes
day evening, August 15, at
10:00 p.m. with an hour's
coverage of the opening cere­
monies at Lenin Stadium in
Moscow. Coverage w ill con

monies on August 26.
K P T V telecast the USSR
U S A basketball games live in
late April and early May
when the Russian team
visited the U.S. for a special
series following their con
troversial, hotly contested
Munich Olympics win.
If
game scheduling permits, the
basketball final at the World
University Games will also
be seen live on Saturday,
August 25, W hite said.
Tw o of India's greatest
actors, Shashi Kapoor and
the beautiful Simi Garewal,
will be seen by Western
moviegoers in the upcoming
Columbia Pictures release,
“Siddhartha", produced, dir
ected and w ritten for the
screen by young American
film-maker Conrad Rooks.
Based on the poetic novel,
published in 1922 and now a
best-seller, by German Nobel
Prize winner Hermann Hesse,
“Siddhartha" was filmed en­
tirely on location in India.
