No. Was it a plane? No. Was it Super man? Well, sort of. Actually it was Christopher Reeve, star of Superman and Superman II. Reeve was in Columbia from Sept. 2-4 to tape introductions and promos for a children's/family film series. Looking more like a mildmannered reporter than a man of steel in his khaki pants, loafers and dress shirt, Reeve answered questions at a brief press conference Friday at the South Carolina Educational Television station. "Having played Superman pickcd up the pace of my career by ten years," he said in response to a question regarding his possible fear of being typecast into one role for the rest of his acting days. "It's the best thing that ever happened to me. Otherwise, I'd still be struggling on Broadway like so many of my friends are still rioint?
