Billy Jack Fans Know, the Lines By DAVE PRITCHARD Freeman Staff Many of the persons watching at the Pix Theatre Thursday knew the film so well they recited the lines along with the actors. After the movie, in fact, one teen-aged girl said seen it eight times, and was planning to go back for more. released in 1971, is the story of a half- breed Indian who comes home from Vietnam a war hero. He served with the Green Berets in Vietnam, and he learned to kill with his hands and his feet. a crack shot with a rifle, and learning ancient mysticism from an old Indian wise man.

A free school for all types of kids is on reservation, but the rednecks in the local town too fond of it. Among the students at the school, you see, are blacks, Indians, chicanos and tals. Billy Jack becomes the protector. He has the perverted notion that the school has a right to existence, and this leads to much trouble with the law and order townspeople who think everybody should be just like them. He has his own personal code of justice.

politicians break the law there any he declares. a 4 fight for survival I And what is all about. a morality plav, with no at tempt to point out the strengths of the way of life or the weak nesses of the school 59 OUTDOOR But then what morality plays do they take sides. At the end of the movie Billy Jack is holed up in the church with a small arsenal of guns and ammunition. Outside is an army of police waiting to blow his brains out.

not afraid to he tells the pacifist directoress of the school when she comes to try to get him to surrender. She makes him realize, however, that the fight for survival in a lawless society is more than just individual survival. If Billy Jack refused to surrender, the school will be closed. The lawmen give Billy time to decide whether to fight or surrender. He makes a deal with the police and the representative who is present, not to save himself, but to save the school.

He allows himself to be handcuffed and led away by police as the students stand in silent tribute with clenched fists upraised. If you think the Vietnam War was illegal, if you think blacks and Indians been treated fairly in this country, if you want to be moved by a modern- day morality play, then go see Jack" again.
