Nazi picture begins series "Triumph of the Will," a 1934 Nazi propaganda picture, began the art film series of eight films to be viewed every other Tuesday evening in P-32. . Each film will be a unique type, techmque, or presentation," explained Mr. Richard Peacock, head of the English department, and instructor of the film dass. "We chose 'Triumph of the Will' to start the series to demonstrate the power of the medium, the power of film," Peacock said. "The propaganda film attempts to educate, to control the audience, to view the subject from a chosen point of view. This is probably one of the greatest propaganda films ever made. It is a demonstration of some of the insights the Nazi's had in control of the German people." The next film in the series, "High School," to be shown Feb. 24, will be a documentary, according to Peacock. "Equally unique, but entirely different from the propaganda technique." Other films to be shown during the semester include "The Servant," March 20; aThe Gospel According to St. Matthew, March 31; "The Fearless Vampire. Killers," April 14; "The Brig," Apnl 28; "Tell Me Lies," May 12; and "Juliet of the Spirits, May 26. "These films will be well worth seeing," Peacock said. "They are free, and the best buy in the country at this time."

European study program organizing at Palomar
Environmental Walls' opens in Boehm GallerY An e nvironmetal installation entitled "Walls " makes up the new show which opened yesterday in the Dwight Boehm Gallery at Palomar College. The artist is William Childres s, an a rt instructor at San Diego State College. In the exhibit, said Harry Bliss, gallery director, "the artist is conce rned p r i marily with creating moods through s ubtle and precise colored light effects. His . works, notable for their simplicity, c onjure a hushed, mysterious at mosphere. They offer a sort of fleshless, s piritual r elief from the rather overp roductive and possession-cluttered world we live in today. In this r espect, Childress' 'Walls' c an become a sanctuary from the confusion if ideas and t hings we c onfronted with daily."
