PATROLLlNG THE CAMP
THE OSCAR DERBY

The OSCAR DERBY
With all the Juror concerning
the forthcoming Academy Awards
on March 81, we thought we'd
try our hand at selecting our
favorites and the possible win
ners of the coveted Oscar.
Motion pictures offer a large
percentage of the entertainment
for a college student, thus, our
interest is of utmost pertinence.
The awards may determine what
type of movies we will 60 to see
in the future, or determine what
stars I'VE will select as our fav-
oriteS. At any rate, it is one means
of escape from the daily class &C
tivities.
AS in every race, there are IA
vorites, tosS-ups and dark horses.
Usually, the AA winners bring
no real surprises, though there
are many disappointments. The
whole business has become
spectacle in itself as the envelopes
containing the winning subjects
are opened and the winners an
nounced. The Oscar Derby win
nerS are usually those whose
studios exert the most influence
OF the Ito members of the
Academy. The nominations are
made by 1921 members of the
film industry.
BEST ORIGINAL scREENPLAY
Nominations: (1) FREDERICK Fell

da," (Italian); (2) Albert Lomo-
Rise, "Red Balloon" (French);

Stone, "Julie."
We believe we have a winner
in the Italian film "Lt Strada"
written by Fredrico Fellini and
Tullio Pinelli.

Once again a foreign finn is

This will possibly be the Acad-
amy's choice also.

old Patty Mccormack, or to
either seasoned actress Eileen
Heckart and Mercedes McCor-
Mack (She won the supporting
Oscar for her role in Cali The
Kings Men," '49) Our personal
choice is Patty, but either Miss
Heckart or Miss McCambride,
since this seems to be the biggest
fight in any category.
BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR
