thank you ' Proust said. The audience was surprised Proust did not know until after the release of Star Wars that the voice of Alec Guiness was used instead of his own. He found out by reading reviews in Time and Newsweek. I guess they couldn ' t take Darth Vader with a British accent ' he quipped. The next Star Wars epic Return of the Jet i is scheduled to be released in August, 1981. According to Proust, Hans Solo will return. Darth Vader will even- tually be killed off, he said. 0 •‘Intimacy Intimacy is the potential to know and be known by each other in a continuing relationship, said Pat Murphy of the Rutgers, New Brunswick, Counselling Center, December 4, 1980. The renowned researcher in intimacy and social sexual relationships addressed more than 100 people, during a lecture sponsored by the Women ' s Action Alliance and the Student Development . Center. Murphy kept the audience ' s undivided attention as she explained how intimacy is the greatest American taboo. She said that everyone has an urgent need to be in- timate with another person and a primary relationship is the ideal setting for intimacy. All people need several intimate relationships at the same time to fulfill all their needs, she said. Trust must be es- tablished before true intimacy can be achieved. Intimate relationships are undermined in American society by several myths, Murphy said. One such fallacy is the ex- pectations of love and marriage which in- volves romantic love, an ideal which is impossible to achieve forever. Another in- correct idea is that in marriage two people should become one. The licensed marriage counsellor says everyone must keep his or her own identity. Some feel people are selfish if they want privacy, she said, because everyone needs solitude oc- casionally. In American society, people are socialized into assuming definite male or (Left) A speaker at the El Salvador forum makes his pc (Above) Pat Murphy talks to a crowd of more than 100 at intimacy.

David Drcast Darth Vader is Luke Skywalker ' s father. The answer to the question which haunt- ed millions since the release of the movie The Empire Strikes Back was answered by an expert, November 11, 1980. David Proust, who portrayed Darth Vader in Star Wars and the current sci-fi epic laid it on the line. I am Luke Skywalker ' s father, he said. However, Proust steered his lecture away from the role of Darth Vader, and in- stead, focused on his background and other career interests. A native of Great Britain, Proust is a former heavyweight champion and considers himself primarily a body builder. He trained for the 1964 Olympics in Tokyo only to find out that Britain decided not to send heavyweights. Proust owns his own gymnasium in England and has trained such celebrities as Christopher Reeves for his role in Superman. Proust said his pet project is child pedestrian safety. The figurehead of Britain ' s safety campaign, Proust travels to schools, teaching children the safety code. He is the author of Safety with Stars , a book featuring English personalities promoting safety. Proust expressed his desire to get involved in a similar program in the United States. Prior to Star Wars, Proust portrayed Frankenstein in several horror flicks. His lecture included a slide presentation of movie stills. Included were scenes from the Horror of Frankenstein , voted one of the ten worst horror films, Proust said. His personal favorite was Frankenstein and the Monster from Hell. In addition to his Frankenstein roles, Proust played a bodyguard in Clockwork Orange. He also appeared in several television series, including The Avengers , and Space 1999 . The audience listened attentively, but it was obvious they wished to get back to the Star Wars phenomena. The crowd, which included many youngsters, seemed anxious to find out more about the future of Luke Skywalker. No one will ever forget Darth Vader. I think you ' ve made a wise decision, said producer George Lucas to Proust after he decided to portray Darth Vader. Originally, Proust was offered the role of Chewbacca, the ape-like crony of Hans Solo.

Whenever anyone is forced into a role, the person is not be- ing who that individual wants to be. Men lose touch with their sensitivity because they are taught to stifle their feelings. Women are not supposed to be strong. With these obstacles how can two peo- ple be truly intimate? Getting close to another person is an ongoing process, Murphy said. In marriage, open disagree- ment is absolutely essential. Couples should learn how to resolve their dif- ferences by confronting their problems, even if the confrontation leads to argu- ments.

The presentation not only dealt with the selling of arms, but also painted a thorough picture of the horrid conditions and inhumane treatment of the peasants of this nation caught up in revolution. Sr. Patricia Haggerty, a Maryknoll nun who served in El Salvador, revealed that not only had the death rate in El Salvador increased considerably in 1980, but also that the amount of military arms given by the U.S. had increased at a comparable rate in that year. These arms were delivered to the military, the National Guard and the police, who used them to defend the position of the 14 families who 23
