an inspiring example of peerless
pornography.
Filmed by Peerless Pornogra-
phy, Inc., HALITOSIS features
local talent acting like local tal-
ent acting. Viewed for the first
time by the producer, director,
adapter, wardrobe mistress and
a Daily critic, the picture was
pronounced a complete success,

Undoutedly, the daring produc-
er, director, assistant director,
property man, script girl, dwarf
and squire (all actually the same
man . . . William Hampered, a
teaching fellow in Sweet Potato
Culture) must be commended for
his startling innovations. Not only
do the actors appear to move about

"Halitosis" is the story of a
fraternity boy's mind which is
divided into a series of water tight,
scotch tight compartments. The
camera closes in on one of these
compartments. It is on the Wol-
verine Special going to Cornell for
an Ivy League weekend. In an
upper berth is an upperclassman.
He is Niccolo Machievelli, '52, an
exchange student f r o m Italy
(Played by Clark Gable in an ar-
gyle undershirt). Removing his
shirt to reveal the fraternity crest
tatooed on his chest Nick declares,
"The means justify the end" a$

Ginny, played by Irene Dunn is
the twelve year old daughter of
a Mongolian missionar . Ginny
has run away from Vassar, dis-
guised as the sixteen year old
daughter of a Mongolian mission-
ary and taken up residence at the
Washtenaw Athletic Club.
This is truly a tale of rejection,
dejection, interjection, preposition
supposition and suplication con-
cerned in its conception, stark in
its starkness, inequitable in its in-
iquity.
