Cinema Circulus is the name of the newest and fastest-growing financial support group on the University of Southern California campus.
Cinema Circulus is a group of individuals dedicated to the support of cinema education at USC. Each member contributes $100.00 a year, or a single endowment payment of $2,500.00, to further the professional education of young persons who will be the film-makers, executives and craftsmen of the very near future.
Cinema Circulus is the satisfaction members have in knowing that they have helped- that their money is going directly to sup port and build the future of the motion picture industry. This industry has always been America-centered and will continue to be, so long as we can educate, encourage and train our creative A SHINING YEAR of achievement was hailed on April 28 when USC president Norman Topping greeted members of Cinema Circulus, dynamic young people to continue in this direction. support group for the USC Division of Cinema and Schoo·l of Performing Arts.

This direct support On April 28, 1968 the first annual banquet for the members of helped at least a dozen qualified low-income students to continue Cinema Circulus was held at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel. Prior to their college educations. the banquet the Board met and made two decisions: hereafter the members of Cinema Circulus would have as their banquet Cinema Circulus members helped the USC Division of Cinema guests the students who have received assistance from the Cinema increase the number of cameras and other equipment available to Circulus Fund.

This is the now generation which has grown up with some extra's friendship with a film star. However, as Dr. Topping a visual orientation, and upon whom the future must depend in was able to report, it was the money he earned as an extra which learning what to say, and how to say those things which are most helped finance him through the USC School of Medicine. important. Cinema Circulus Message lrom the President- candids ... It is a pleasure to be able to give this brief account of the first year of Cinema Circulus.
I am happy to report that, with the energetic help of those who have served with me on the founding board of this support group for the USC Division of Cinema, we have made significant contributions. We have contributed to the furthering of film edu cation, to the future of young people in the motion picture industry, and to the development of far-reaching plans to be implemented at USC in the near future.
Some of the accomplishments you helped bring about this year have been most gratifying. Let me list one or two. At a time of crisis, twelve students working under the Federal Work-Study Program faced an end to their education when Federal money ran short. Cinema Circulus funds picked up the slack and these students were kept on.
When the annual scholarship program was limited by the Mrs. Norman Taurog, Mr. and Mrs. Saul Chaplin, Stanley Musgrove, Esther Hoff, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Wise, Norman Taurog. amounts of money available to finance some of our best students, once again we were able to help, with Cinema Circulus funds.
We know we are helping to prepare the young people moving so quickly and creatively into the motion picture industry. At the same time, experience has taught us that our chosen field is an art as well as an industry and requires what all arts must require -good craftsmanship to back up the creativity.
With this first year's achievements behind us, I have every reason to feel confident that next year we will be able to report even greater success.
I am delighted to thank all of you in Cinema Circulus for your help.

If you send word of your interest to Prof. Farmer (use my n)me .. ) 1•m sure that he'd be glad to keep you on the mailing list for further nmti ces and details. There'll be word about what events on what day; information about campu s or nearby housing; costs and such .... It's a great group of people in this Association--people w i~ h \whom you will find MUCH in common. I think you and the Association will ·prdfit! I found that the Asian Studi es Conference in Chicago was great fun--meeting with and arguing with old fri ends--and meeting many new acquaintances who are likely to become good confreres by the time the next AAS meeting rolls around! You and I have both film and ~sia in common. That•s a big plus. I hope that ~e can plan for some time either in Los Angeles in August or in New York some other month, to talk at great length about ways and means .... ! Cordially, M~zabeth H.
