Events fill Homi From Staff Reports Bands, cookouts, movies and a parade will highlight Homecoming week, sponsored by USC's Homecoming committee. Homecoming week activities begin tonight with three movies on Field A beginning at 6:30 p.m. "Life of Brian," the irreverant movie by the Monty Python British comedy troupe, will be one of the films presented. The film is set in the time of Jesus Christ and deals with Brian, a man whom people misperceive as the Messiah. The movie caused controversy when bumper stickers appeared that said, "Honk if you love Brian." "AN AMERICAN WEREWOLF in London" also will be presented, along with a surprise 3-D film. The activities fair will be held Tuesday on Greene Street from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Clubs and organizations will present displays to inform students what extracurricular activities are available. The fair features 32 groups ranging from the USC Lacrosse Club and ROTC units to the S.C. State Legislative Association. THE FRISBEE, Judo and other clubs have demonstrations planned, according to student Carol Vance, who is in charge of the Activities Fair. Band gets small crowd By David Switzer About 60 people saw the Dow Jones Industrial Blues Band Incorporated perform son 3 energetic rock and blues music at the Golden Spur Thursday night. The small crowd was an ironic contrast to the larger audience that saw Treva Spontaine and the Grafics ? an inferior performance ? in the Spur two weeks ago. The Dow Jones group had everything over the Grafics. The band from Charleston played a wide variety of selections, ranging from rock 'n' roll by Elvis Costello and the Stray Cats to its own original blues songs. Singer, saxophonist and guitarist Marc Collins was one reason for the band's success. He was non-stop action onstage, always playing, jumping and moving. One time he 2ven ran out into the audience, jumping over tables and chairs. The band received one of its best responses from the small crowd with an upbeat blues song originally recorded in 1923. 1..
