Students for Environmental Awareness sponsor bike tour
Student cyclists can maintain fitness and enjoy a tour of Athens on a
ride sponsored by Students For Environmental Awareness on Sunday,
April 24 at 1:30 p.m. The tour will begin and end at City Hall. Places
of interest that will be viewed include the Taylor-Grady House, the
Oconee Hills Cemetery and several old homes along Prince and
Milledge Avenues. “We figure it will be a good way to get some exer
cise and see Athens at a leisurely pace,” said Jeff Smith, a member of
SEA. “We do prefer that people wear helmets if they can.”
Refreshments will be offered along the way and a certificate will be pre
sented to each participant. For more information, call Scott Hill at 542-
8102.

500 hours of community service keeps Tonya Harding busy
PORTLAND, Ore. -Tonya Harding served meals to senior citizens as
part of the community service sentence she received for her role in the
assault on rival figure skater Nancy Kerrigan. Harding worked Tuesday
at a low-income senior center in Oregon City. Robert C. Weaver Jr.,
Harding’s lawyer, said it had been hard to find a place for the Olympic
skater to perform her community service because many programs were
afraid of being inundated with media. “What she’s doing, and where,
we’re not saying,” he said Tuesday. Harding pleaded guilty to conspiring
to cover up the plot to attack Kerrigan. As part of a plea agreement, she
agreed to pay fines and fees of $160,000, serve three years’ probation,
perform 500 hours of community service, seek psychiatric care and re
sign from the U.S. Figure Skating Association.
Dom DeLuise charged with criminal sexual misconduct
ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. - Actor Dom DeLuise has been charged with al
legedly touching a male casino employee in a sexual way. DeLuise was
charged Friday criminal sexual contact, based on a complaint from the
employee at Merv Griffin’s Resorts Casino Hotel, said police Sgt. Stephen
Hawkins. Police didn’t identify the employee. Criminal sexual contact
“constitutes a touching of a sexual nature,” Hawkins said. “It can mean
a lot of things and I can’t give you any details on what occurred.”
Investigators interviewed DeLuise on Monday and he denied any wrong
doing. DeLuise’s agent, Robert Malcolm, said Wednesday he knew noth
ing about the charge. The incident allegedly occurred March 26 while
DeLuise was a guest at the hotel, Hawkins said. The portly 60-year-old
actor wasn’t taken into custody. DeLuise appeared with Burt Reynolds
in the movies “The End” and “Smokey and The Bandit II.” He also act
ed in Mel Brooks’ “History of the World Part I” and “Robin Hood: Men in
Tights.”
Campbell Soup introduces new look with redesigned label
CAMDEN, N.J. - Shhhhh. Put your ear to the ground and see if you can
hear Andy Warhol rolling in his grave. The red-and-white label that
made Campbell Soup a household name and a pop art icon is getting a
new look. The new label has a photograph of a bowl of soup at the cen
ter and a recipe panel on the back. The red panel on the upper half of
the label is smaller and the name of the soup variety is higher. A small
box on the label reassures customers: “New look same great soup!” “This
is the most comprehensive redesigning of the label since it was created”
nearly a century ago, Campbell Soup Co. spokesman Kevin Lowery said
Wednesday. “This is a pretty dramatic change.” The red-and-white
Campbell label made its debut in 1898, a year after the company began
producing condensed soups in Camden. Pop artist Warhol made the cans
famous with more than 100 portraits and paintings showing the red-and-
white label. Warhol, who died in 1987, began painting the soup cans in
1962.

“Bewitched,'' shimmers and glides

it induces the dance. Low and

• Friday/Saturday: Philadelphia
Hollywood's first attempt to ad
dress the AIDS crisis is a touching,
well-balanced drama blessed with
fine performances and sensitive di
rection by Jonathan Demme.
Though poorly scripted (the court
room scenes are particularly uncon
vincing), Demme's sense of family
and community make it feel gen
uine. (B)
• Friday/Saturday (Midnight):
Clockwork Orange Kubrick's adap
tation of the Anthony Burgess novel
is difficult for me to warm up to -
sometimes I stand in awe of its
brilliantly disturbing vision, other
times I find it utterly repulsive.
Still, essential viewing. (?)
• Sunday: Lola Montes Max
Ophuls' period piece is considered
by many to be the most beautiful
color film ever made. If that
doesn't qualify it as an event, then
I don't know what does.
• Wednesday: 'Round Midnight.
Easily the best fiction film about
jazz is a loving homage to the musi
cal genre featuring a one-of-a-kind
performance by real-life sax great
Dexter Gordon. Herbie Hancock’s
fabulous original music was all
recorded live on specially designed
sets, which makes a big difference.

• Thursday: Let Him Have It
Director Peter Medak based this
film on an incredible miscarriage of
justice in England where a young
man was hung for a crime he did
not commit. See it to prepare for
“In The Name Of The Father.”

• Schindler’s List. Until it leaves,
it's still by far the best film in town.

Kathleen Turner as a knife-wielding
Betty Crocker. The word is pretty
good.
• Threesome. Menage a yawn. (D)

docu-drama tells us the story of the
fifth Beatle, Stu Sutcliffe, a story
we don't want to hear. (C)

Western starring three terrible ac
tresses Drew Barrymore,
Madeleine Stowe and Andie
MacDowell. Be afraid.
• Brainscan. This virtual reality hor

• Four Weddings And A Funeral,
Now, the number one movie in
America. There's hope yet. (B)

posedly bloated attempted at magi

excellent films, "Pelle The
Conqueror" and "The Best
Intentions."
