The; L RHUU fi possible By Rachel Koenig Gamecock Staff Writer The Cinematic Arts Committee of Russell House University Union will be forced to cut film presentations to four nights a week and discontinue free films for students if the senate approves recommended Student Allocation Commission budget cuts. Students can now view films seven nights a week, with free films shown Sunday through Wednesday. Missy Price, chairman of Cinematic Arts, said the SAC recommendations have been appealed and the senate will make a decision today. SENATE FINANCE committee member Robert Burton said SAC cut the Cinematic Arts program harshly "simply because we don't have enough money going around." Burton said the committee may keep its standing budget if it can prove to Student Government that it deserves more money. Burton said, "If the Cinematic Arts and Free Films Committee is so short of money, then how can they afford a full page advertisement in the Gamecock? " Burton said he is very upset with what he calls the Gamecock's "unfair coverage" of organizations which have had budget cuts. "The Gamecock has concentrated on the student media budget cuts and not the other 140 organizations that were cut also, he said. Charges of SAC censorship in the media budgets are unfounded, Burton said. "The reason we cut organization is because of lack of money," he said. THE RHUU FILM is one of the top 10 in the country and USC is one of the few universities having a free film program, Price said. The films are not only for entertainment ? they have an educational value as well, she said. Movies are used for film classes, but other professors sometimes like "their students to see certain * f* m m a LI/\ nrti rJ l> /\ i\ ^v 1 f tiugene Mcuarthy atl,u l,c ' while interest ra . u i / financial situati* think they can apply a balance of DaetwyierSaid.

Approximately 25,000 people view films in the Russell House Theatre each semester but 44SG feels it is the same people that keep going to the films," Price said. The Cinematic Arts Committee is committed to continuing free films for students and Price said she hopes the Gamecock advertisement will create student support. "The purpose of the advertisement is to make students more aware of what is happening," she said. "Students have already paid for the films with their activities fees and I see no need for paying for them again." FILMS SHOWN at Russell House Thursday through Saturday are "pay films" and their revenue is used to rent more movies, Price said, when "Animal House" was at the theatre, "we had about ItUUl npnnlp cpp it anH wp naiH CHKU) tn rpnt th*? film vvv " """ "~ .-w..v v..v , she said. Weekend films must make a profit or the committee "can't breakeven," Price said. Cuts in budgets are made by "line" items and a few of the recommended items to be cut are film rentals, purchase of films, publicity and postage. The Cinematic Arts Committee had new ideas for student entertainment that must be cut if SAC's budget recommendation is passed, Price said. The committee was planning a "Saturday Morning Fun Club" consisting of "films we all saw as kids and loved," Price said. CHERYL DOE, a former member of SAC and the student senate, said the Cinematic Arts Committee's cnances 01 getting good results from their appeal is the same as any other group's. "There was no malice intended on SG's part," Doe said. "We just had to cut them because there wasn't enough money."
