Adult ticket prices had gone up SO cents. Movies now cost 53.00 more than when our parents wereourage. According to Mr. Farris Shanbour, owner of Oklahoma Cinema Theaters Inc., it had to be done because the cost of everything else was going up. Mr. Earl Murray. manager of the Shepherd Twin, commented that the new minimum wage law and increased social security requirements also affected the theatre's budget. There are, however, two theatres in Oklahoma City which provided good movies for the price of only one dollar a ticket. The Plaza Cinema and the Will Rogers theaters showed second-run movies for those who missed them the first time around or those who simply couldn't afford the higher prices. In spite of the high prices, movies were still a popular form of entertainment, To find out which movies were the most popular among P C students, a cross-section of 340 seniors, juniors and sophomores were polled. The top ten movies were 1. Star Wars 2. Rocky 'X 3. A Star is Born 4. Smokey i I and the Bandit C' 5. Semi-Tough 6. Close Encounters 'X 7.
