29th BIRTHDAY Phi Lap +p FRANC for DEEN FISHBURNE ... for Bob Rogers CECELIA HILL . . . for Tommy Taylor Alpha Eta chapter of Phi Kappa Sigma social fraternity celebrated its 29th birthday last Friday night with a dinner da-ee in the Empire Room of the Hotel Columbia. Jimmy Farr and or chestra furnished music for the evenimg. Rockin The lady of the 'thirties was G. G., Greta Garbo; the femme fatale of the post-war period was M. M., Marilyn Monroe; and now the rocking era seems to be adopting B. B., Brigette Bardot, who seems to display on "excit ing philosophical attitude" to Parisians. What is this thing called Bar dot? No one really knows, and it is doubtful if she knows her self. Her exterior is quite evi dent: definitely French, sad hazel eyes, 23, and, as quoted by Trime and evident in her movies, "as bare as a censor's eyeball." A translation of Bardot would loose something, but essentially a good paraphrase for her would be "tramp." If B. B.'s salary is increased by the amount of herself that she displays on the screen, she must be enormously rich (proof: $150,000 per film.). Imported Persons It is heard that MarIon Brando, turned producer, stopped his motorcycle riding and his gum chewing., long enough to ask Bardot to appear in one of his films. Whether Mine. Bardot consentedl, it is not known. May be the reason she appeals to Brando is that she cavorts shoe less as does his newly acquired Indian wife-he seems to like imports. Little does Brando know that there are all grades of imported personalities, and Bar dot is not Grade A. Bardot's latest expose, "And 'God Created Woman," is a sort of profect executed by her comn panions (present and past). Her husbead in the film is her present boyfrIend (Jean--Louis Trintig o.a)y and the director, her ex hwsI,ad (whosa she mamhd at d C'l 'pa Sig Cel IS BELL LINDA C Ed Bowen . . for Geor .~ . .... .. am ANN KENDRICKS .*. for John Cloyd BONNIE CARLTON . for Frank Easterling Frank Esterling was presented the Best Pledge Award for the outstanding pledge of the fall semester, and Peggy Boyle, 'who is pinned to Stacy Clardy, was named Phi Kap Girl for 1958. Highlighting the evening was an address by Professor C. W. Era Disp People of the theatre, are - known to have no morals, and B. B. is probably at the bottom of the list according to morality. "And God Created Woman," whose original version has been definitely censored, leaves noth ing "uncovered." It was cen sored so much so until it was almost developed into a short subject, which would not have been a bad idea. In her movies Bardot does not boost the under wear industry's business any, but she compensates by wearing only undiies around the studio, the bare essentials. Pooped-Out Bardot has two expressions: the pooped-out, dejected look which developes into a sulk and the ecstatic burst of laughter seldom occurring. The title of her latest, which is quite sacrilegious to refer to a sex pot such as her and the Creator in the same breath, has no bearing whatsoever on the theme of the film. The screen play concerns an 18-year-old or phaned playgirl who is the tramp of a village in the south of France. After having affairs with two men there, she, marries a third, who is her own age, to keep from being sent back to the orphanage for her notorious activities. The photography Is terrible one might think the movie crew had only one camera, and the editing Is even worse. Why couldn't the natural, beautiful setting of Nice be put to more advantage? The story rambles boringly from brawl to brawl and bed to bed. Controversial It cannot too well be under stood why this production is so controvral.

Bardot kept the rotten ~ ~ tomatoes from flying at the screen was because of her quite noticeable bulging out and *)::.. pinched in figure. This figure of ~.~,:/.. hers is quite noticeable because of a dress which is almost total ly unbuttoned. The .only reason the audience doesn't get up and leave is that the dialogue is overly suggestive, and this it l ovedl. Shaky in Spots She was a (lancer at' one time and dlisplays this talent sadly by shaking herself in most of her movies. On the whole, Brigette Bardot Peao odbbyws is quite a femme; although she has her nausiating features such as her seaweed hair, her beauti-C H fuil figure pinched Into an 18 inch waist compensates for most- - of her deficiencies, excepting1 3I her terrible acting. Bardot likes animals, and she is rather ani mal-like herself, especially her '1II IE embraces. She admits wanting to h)e wild and sexy, Maybe the French are trying Hi to. set a trend with such pictures as hers. These pictures are, purely sensual, have no value, A lni oP andi will fade away as farces. Whether you are pro- or con- te tw rn Bardot, her siren sulk and casual, sadly done acting will probably dlominate the 'silver screen for many moons to come. There are enough of the com mon and corrupt movie goers to continue her popularity. The movie industry would probablySeyo rlclat not be going slowly down hill if films were of a higher calibre. -.
