a victory over Iowa and a defeat at the hands
of the Houston Cougars.
Against the Hawkeyes, Pinone fought his way inside for 18 points on six of 12 shooting from the field
and a perfect six of six from the charity stripe. The
burly center also ripped down nine rebounds.
The impressiveness of Pinone's performance
didn't escape Iowa guard Bob Hansen.
"He's an excellent ballplayer, I have a lot of respect
for the way he plays/' said Hansen, himself a future
NBA pick. "He's going to go a long way in his career."
Against the physk:ally imposing Cougars Pinone
duplicated his previous effort with an klentical 18
point, nine rebound output, quite a feat considering
he was up against seven-foot center Akeem "The
I>ream" Olajuwon.
"He wasn't intimidating at all. I've been saying
that all week long," explained Pinone, one of the few
people in college basketball who can honestly make
such a statement.

know the outoome, you tend to
pity the doomed kivera. At the

throughout most of the movie.
It would be difficult to focua on

Jerry are having an affair which
has been going on for quite some
time. Emma and Robert think
themselves rather clever but they
really aren't as careful as they
think. But I'm not going to tell you
the whole story. Anyway, it
doesn't matter because it starts
from end and works its way to the
beginning. A new technique, undoubtedly, but very effective. Harold Pinter's play was adapted
wonderfully to this strange me-
words, but being typically Pinter,
each word rings irt your ear tong
after it has been spoken. Another
effect of this brevity of speech is
that each character may bethinking about something other than
what is being said.
The other outstanding feature
of "Betrayal" is the ckwe-up
shots. On stage it is the prolonged
silences which |m)duce the enormous tension and mood. On film,
the close-ups of each character's
