The Vixen (Russ Meyer, 1968)
AAFC, 7 & 10 p.m., Aud. A, Angell
Hall.
A story of an insatiable wife who
conducts affairs with everyone she
meets. This is one of the first X-rates
films to appeal to couples.
Mud Honey (Russ Meyer, 1965)
AAFC, 8:20 p.m., Aud. A, Angell
Hall.
The tale of a brutal husband, his
beseiged wife, and their rotten
marriage is at first glance a brutal
sexploitation flick. It is, however, a
chilling portrait of male repression
by the man some call the "Southern
Fellini." Rated X.
The Three Penny Opera (G. W. Pab-
st, 1931) CZ,7p.m.,MLB 4.
This is the story of the real, low
down, conniving Macheath. The
great G. W. Pabst directed this
original version of Bertoit Brect's
masterpiece based on John Gay's
The Beggar's opera.
An American In Paris (V. Minnelli,
1951) CZ, 9 p.m., MLB 4.
Gene Kelly plays an American ar-
tist trying to make a living in Paris.
Co-stars Nina Foch and Leslie
Caron. Gershwin score.
Faust (F. W. Murnau, 1929) CG, 7
p.m., Nat Sci.
A beautiful silent film using a cast
fresco of light and shadow. The
classic tale of a man who sells his
soul to the devil.
Sunrise (F. W. Murnau, 1927) CG, 9
p.m., Nat Sci.
One of the silent screen's best
remembered triumphs, it deals with
a man who is persuaded by the other
woman in his life to murder his wife.
Shoah (Claude Lanzmann, 1985) Hill
St., 6p.m., (pt. 2). Mich.
Critically acclaimed, this is Lan-
zmann's 91/: hour Holocaust
documentary which was ten years in
the making. Beautiful.

By TIM DALY
Congress is considering two bills which would make it
more difficult for students to declare financial indepen-
dence to obtain more government aid. Hundreds of un-
dergraduates could be effected if either bill passes,
University administrators say.
Both the House and the Senate bill increase the length of
time a student must be self-sufficient to declare indepen-
dent status. The changes would go into effect in Septem-
ber, 1987.
CURRENTLY, students are considered independent if
they receive less than $750 a year from their parents, or
live at home less than six weeks a year, and have not been
claimed as a tax exemption by their parents during the
award year plus one previous year.
Under the proposals, independent students must prove
their self-sufficiency for an extra year.
Both bills also extend the Higher Education Act until
1991. This act reauthorizes a variety of education
programs, including financial aid, teacher education
programs, and urban grant programs.
THE HOUSE bills, which passed last November,
eliminates the requirements that students not receive
over $750 a year and not live at home for more than six
weeks. The current Senate bill maintains the requiremen-
ts. Senators are expected to vote on their final bill within
the next month.
Tom Butts, the University's Washington lobbyist, said
people sometimes take advantage of the current
definition of independence, making the requirements
useless. "Families don't always report accurately how
much money they give the student or how much time the
student spends at home," he said.
In addition, the House bill makes all students over 23
years old independent. "This is a real advantage for
students who are 23 or about to turn 23," Butts said.
"However, the House bill makes it much more difficult for
younger students to gain independent status because of
the additional year of self-sufficiency."
There are advantages and disadvantages in being
declared independent. "The main advantage of being
declared an independent is that family resources are not
taken into account when evaluating a student's need,"
said Lynn Borset, assistant financial aid director.
But independent students must rely more heavily on the
self-help category of financial aid to make up for parental
contributions, Borset said. This includes loans and work-
study programs.
Because of this increased reliance on loans, indepen-
dent students are more likely to amass debts. Of 15,156
students who applied for financial aid for the 1984-'85
school year, 2,067 undergraduates and 1,523 graduate
students applied as independents, Borset said.
'U' experts disagree on value of attack
(Continued from Page 1)
"There is no legal basis for the U.S.
attack," Singer said.
Singer attributed the present crisis
to the nations' leaders. "You get two
crazy turkeys like Khadafy and
Reagan, both incompetent as hell,
they're acting like two kids on a
playground."
SINGER belives that there were
non-violent alternatives available to
the United States such as paying more
attention to the underlying causes of
terrorism like the Palestinian
problem.
Singer is especially concerned
about the attack because in two weeks
he will be going to Europe, India, and
Asia on a speaking tour for the State
Department. Singer said, "there's a
good chance I may not come back.
The stupidity and brutality of my own
government puts my life in danger."
In response to the U.S. bombing, the
Soviet Union issued a formal protest,
and cancelled a May meeting between
Secretary of State George Shultz and
Soviet Foreign Minister Eduart
Shevardnadze which was to schedule
the next U.S.-Soviet summit.
History prof. Ronald Suny charac-
terized the Soviet reponse as
"reasonable, moderate, and
minimal."
"They had to react somehow, but
this is nothing serious," he said,
predicting that the cancelled meeting
will be rescheduled.
The United States attack will "still
lead to a cooling of relations, at least
for a while," Suny said. Yet he predic-
ted the Soviets will stay out of the
U.S.-Libyan conflict. "(The Soviets)
are not particularly enamored of
Khadafy. They consider him un-
stable; they keep their distance,"
Suny said.
