theme of sex relationships. I pick
out "Suzanna’’ because it is the least
excusable of the three. Dealing with
a clo se knit communty i n the seven­
ties, it had a chance to portray the
efforts of group of people to create a
superior social microcosm. It does
nothing of the kind, however, but
merely uses the setting as a vehicle
through which to appeal to the sm ut­
tiness in all of us.
CHARLEfy’S AUNT we can re ­
member when this was the funniest
movie we'd ever seen with Syd Chap­

member when i t was - the funniest
play he’d ever seen back in the

again and not a mothball in i t The
uy to thank for putting it across is

Referee.
Very few of them could finish the
first part—280 true-and-false and
multiple choice questions—in the
four hours (240 m inutes) allowed.
They had more objection to the al­
leged lack of time than to the fact
that they were asked searching
questions on politics, economics,
general law, etc., as well as on the
U nemployment Insurance Law.
Two and a half hours, following a
30-minute lunch period, w ere given
over to four essay questions. These,
the candidates agreed, w ere tough,
but fair. They w ere worried, though,
about the declaration th at unless
they passed p a rt I, p a rt II would
not be marked.
