Chicken has always been a favorite
of families and cooks. It is delicious,
good for you and lends itself to a
great variety of preparation tech

and rice entree is baked with colorful
sliced peaches. Cooked this special
way, chicken gets an appetizing glaze
and a zesty lemony flavor. As easy as
it is fast, it is one of the more eco

wholesome family meal It is also one
of the best ways too of preserving
flavor. The fine natural juices are
sealed in when the chicken is baked in

Killing Reids
wins Oscar
by Robert Lothian
Dr. Haing S. Ngor, a Cambodian
refugee acting .in his first film , won
the Oscar for best supporting actor
Monday night.
Ngor won the prize for his per
formance as Dith Pran in “ The K ill
ing Fields.” The movie is about the
true-life experience o f New York
Times reporter Sydney Schanberg and
his assistant, Dith Pran, during the
takeover o f Cambodia by the Khmer
Rouge.
Schanberg was able to leave but
Pran had to stay. A good part o f the
film is about Pran's horrifying work
camp ordeal and eventual escape.
Ngor, who was a surgeon in C am
bodia, was also sent to a work camp.
It was a sentence o f death for many
Cambodians: those who escaped
being shot by their Khmer Rouge
captors often died o f starvation.
Accepting the Oscar, Ngor tear
fully recalled the real life experience
which made his performance trans
cend normal acting.
He lost almost his entire family,
he said, and his fiance died in his
arms pleading for a spoonful of rice.
“ There was such pain, you can’t
imagine,” he said. As if the horri
fying memories aren’t enough, he
carries a permanent reminder o f the
CTuelty o f his captors: they cut o ff the
Utile finger o f his right hand.
"T he movie was real, but not real
enough; true, but not true enough;
cruel, but not cruel enough,” he said.
An estimated 2 million Cam bod
ians died in a 2-year reign o f terror
conducted by the Khmer Rouge led by
the fanatic Pol Pot. Apparently, the
Khmer Rouge fell they could imple
ment their so-called ideal society by
wiping out entire scgmer.ts o f the
population.
Teachers, professors, journalists
ind anyone suspected of being sym
pathetic with the former pro-Ameri-
aui regime were sent to the killing
fields.
In “ The Killing Fields," the suf
fering in Ngor's eyes as he grinds
through his daily work camp routine,
watching fellow prisoners get picked
off one by one, speaks not only for
Cambodians, but for all human beings
victimized by cruel politics.
Ngor's is a rare performance, full
of humanity. The irony is that he
lid n t get best actor. He was certain-
y the star o f "T h e Killing Fields."
Now a job counselor for Asian
refugees in Los Angeles, Ngor is
studying for an American medical li-
