The plainclothes force works a regular schedule on payoff pickups once prompting the disgusted Serpico to comment: "We could clear up all the crimes in this city if those guys worked that hard at being policemen" Allowed to grow a beard and wear hippie clothes to Infiltrate the street crowds really behind times" he tells a superior "Our idea of an undercover man is a guy wearing black shoes and white Serpico really becomes a loner blatantly arresting the hoods who are paying off to the other cops in the station house CHARGES IGNORED "KNIFE FOR THE LADIES" COLOR R1 RUTH ROMAN JACK ELAM "CHINESE CONNECTION" BRUCE R' "BIG BIRD CAGE" 'R' "BIG DOLL HOUSE" 'R' "WILD REBELS" 'R' 9 5 POINT AFTER 5 CLUB 117 RETT A XJl-miS fill niu KOCklVOIlIK KAMI Mwrrn ixui'i himiw DANCING -MIXED DRINKS 2 NO COVER CHARGE 621330 Slaitt at Ouik 2245 Jacltboio Hwy Opn 600 tlwy 1 83 River Oaks 738-68b Opan 7:00 Start 7:30 PRESENTS "GOODBYE CHARLIE" A COMEDY IN 2 ACTS BY DEO AKELROV FEB 7-8-9-1 4-1 5-1 5 PM Tickets available at Sears and at the door $21) "KNIFE FOR THE LADIES" 15 Winutoi Out JooVsboio Hiway RATED ADULT FILMS Phon 237-2921 for Titll "MISTHESO WALTZ" ff "THE OTHER" COLOR 'PG' BPLUS "TRIPLE IRONS" Bori BOTH COLOR R' Town Hall Theatre is located in the South Arcade Seminary South Shopping enter bANU UN aUINUAT nil him Time: 12:15 55 Hang WfStff WORTH M6 14Q 1 him RootHiMuw THCrSTIIMOl ahdot STREISAWD fj THEWAYWEWERE THE WA him i lSllr-llU SREDFCBD uoAicHikky tANt Bury Western-Hills Inn 1 102 EULESS PHONE 283-T531 (JUNCTION OF HWY 183 HWY 1 57) One of the finest Motels in the area NOW FT WORTH- I him Janwt Caan Marsha AAason tli Wallach "CINDERELLA LIBERTY" An Urpeded Low Story Rated In Colof Nothing JACKSBOROHWY- l'J9 can PHONE I StOD fccni Is tverythitMjl 4 1 STEUE DUSTin mcquEEi) mmm the 3345 JCSftO0 HWV 'ON ANY SUNDAY" CASTER RIVERSIDE TPK I IllSt Julia Chriiti Donald Sutwrlond I nl I 1 DOM'T LOOK NOW intv-i M'kii aires?
