Head of the French Dept., claimed foe this was untrue. "The letter was in no way meant to pressure students into paying the charge," he said. His intention was only to save students money and ensure that they obtained the necessary medical certificate. He claimed that at the time of he letter he was unaware that the cost of a medical examination was only £2. He has since assured LUU President Sally Ryder that he would make this clear to the students. Mlle. Thyss. a lecturer in the department, felt, however. that students should pay this minimal charge. She feels the £5 is worth it, not only for the certificate but for the extensive facilities Student Health provides. "A pint of beer cost 60p and a packet of cigarrettes £1 - this money is always being paid to ruin health. So what is £5 to safeguard it?" she added. • So far the university estimates that only 100 students have paid their E.5 health charge. Meanwhile the Union is maintain- ing its campaign to prevent students from paying. A Senate decision is expected sometime next week on whether the charge should be dropped altogether.

PAGE SEVEN D ARK, DIRE D ISNEY SOMETHING WICKED THE WAY COMES Odeon

At the hour of the soul's midnight, when the October wind brushes leaves down empty streets, two small boys watch a driverless steam engine pull Mr. Dark's Carni- val into Green Town, USA. This is the scene that pre- cipitates sinister events in Walt Disney's new film Something Wicked This Way Comes. The film, adapted from the Ray Bradbury book of the same name, attempts to explore the price of one's deepest desires becoming reality. But as the film is aimed at a Disney audience, the exploration only reaches superficial depths and the theme fades into the trite and banal. The plot is rather simple.

MOZART MASTERPIECE Cosi Fan Tutte was the sec- ond opera Mozart wrote in collaboration with perhaps the finest librettist of all time Lorenzo da Ponte. It is said that the plot was suggested to the raffish poet by the Austrian Emperor Joseph II. The action concerns the plight of two pairs of lovers, Ferrando and Fiordiligi plus Gugliemlo and Dorabella. They are all ruthlessly man- ipulated by the cynical Don Alfonso with the help of the girls maid servant Despina. The worldly wise Don chal- lenges the young officers to put the affections of their sweethearts to the test. The opera with its perfect sym- metry produces many levels as to the true nature of the battle of the sexes. Though, the attack upon overt roman- ticism is very much in keeping with the attitudes of the day.

Upon his wedding night, O one nobleman retorted to his wife, "Madame, I don't mind who you sleep with as long as STRAUSS it is not with footmen or princes of the royal blood."

There can't have been more than thirty of them in the audience, but they crammed the front of the stage, jump- ing up the mike, staggering around and of course gob- bing.
