The directors and students who conducted the tournament were most pleased with By Ed Ronkowski The "AII-Night-Once-ln-A-Lifetime Atomic Movie Orgy" is coming to DePaul University. The "Orgy" promises thrills, savagery, nostalgia, and eyestrain. Sponsored by Schlitz Brewing Co., the seven-hour extravaganza features film clips of such old-time favorites as the Lone Ranger, Hopalong Cassidy, Mighty Mouse, Commando Cody, plus thousands of others, and might aptly be called "A 2001 Splice Odyssey." The "Orgy" will be shown at the University Center Cafeteria on the Lincoln Park Campus, Friday April 28, from 6:30 to 1:30 A.M. Admission is free. Schlitz was willing to provide free beer, but Johnny Cwan vetoed that idea with the remark that DePaul students might have a tendency to abuse a free distribution of suds. (You really think so, John?) Especially geared for the television and film addict of the fifties, the mind boggling barrage of celluloid hysteria brings back to the De Poulia .. 4 A lot of DePaul people helped!

Bits of old television programs, funny commercials, and cartoons also pop in and out with the likes of Howdy Doody, Jungle Jim, the Millionaire, and The Tingler. Nor is the audience spared of segments from some of those fantastic mystery, science-fiction, and horror flicks so prevalent a decade or so ago. The "Orgy" is a segmented collection to allow the voyeur to come and go without missing continuity, so this will be a good place to go before a date, to pick up a date, or to sober up before you face the folks. The splices allow the viewer to compare such things as Nixon's 1 960 rejection speech with his 1 968 acceptance speech, and a Marine Corp recruiting commercial with a Dog Training school commercial. A large quantity of free refreshments have been ordered. If Schlitz made this movie, it's got to be good. 1
