I want to see the movie E.T. I really do. But I think some kind of extra-terrestial forces are working against me. Not that it's really necessary to see E.T. anymore. I know exactly how the plot progresses because all my friends have been feel- ing sorry for me, and they give me a play-by-play of the action. Ever since the movie opened early this summer, I have heard complete descrip- tions of the story, which always end with the order "You must go see it". Even my young niece'Lydia gave me all the details when she visited here in August. Lydia lives in Nassau in the Bahamas, and she had even seen E.T. there. You see, I had been counting on taking her to see it during her visit here, but like everyone else, she had already taken it in. ' Even the run-down old theatre in Nassau was up with the times when it came to a popular movie like E.T. My husband, Victor had heard a lot about E.T., too, ' and finally we set off for London tc see it. We arrived at the theatre to find a three block Line-up, and show time still over an hour away. We knew we wouldn't get in that night.

Unfortunately, a few weeks later, we found even longer lineups with more waiting time than ever.'Stan- ding in line without even hav- ing a sure thing at the end of the queue is not our idea of a good time. On our next trip to see E.T. we decided to try for the ear- ly show. We drove to London in the early afternoon and planned to go out for dinner -first. After our meal, we headed across town to the theatre. As we neared the theatre, neither of us were feeling very well: We decided to skip the movie and head home. We felt. miserable, and thought we were coming down with some kind of 'flu. However, it was later deter- mined that it wasn't flu but food poisoning. Since this isn't a restaurant critique, I won't mention the name of that par- ticular eating establishment. But if you want to know where not to dine, we can certainly tell you. After that disaster, we shelved our plans to see E.T. for awhile. Eventually I notic- ed that E.T. was arriving at the Kineto Theatre in Forest. The Kineto, for you readers who didn't get to see E.T. there either, is a great little theatre which is being kept. alive in Forest by a very dedicated Kiwanis Club. The theatre has undergone exten- siverenovations and Kiwanis members hold numerous fund raisers to keep it on its feet. New movies are brought in each weekend. Anyway, I was very excited when E.T. arrived in Forest. You see, the old Kineto holds a special place in my heart. It was nearly 13 years ago that Victor and I had our first date there. My excellent memory may not impress Victor much, but we saw "Blackbeard's Ghost" - a Walt . Disney classic - in December of 1969. Well, the night we went to see E.T. 1 guess no one was in- terested in my sentimental at- tachments to the Kineto, because they didn't offer to let us in. The scene was the same as we had in London - long lineups with ushers turning those at the end away. And although turning crowds away was something unusual for the Kineto, and very pleasing to the Kiwanis club, it didn't make us too happy. E.T. was held over an extra day in Forest, and even then we weren't able to see it. Oh, well I've heard the plot a dozen or more times, now. I've seen pictures on everything from dinner trays in the stores to patterns for making the stuffed E.T. doll. Maybe I'll catch it when it comes on television. Or maybe extra-terrestial just don't want me to see it. It's not work to walk. So why not Walk to work?
