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

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

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."
