Who’s Afraid of the Disco Alien?

September 1981

Historical September 1981 report or notice. Original dates, prices and contacts describe the source period; current availability has not been established.

Does the thought of Hamilton School students being able to walk through walls fill you with fear? What about a confrontation with a human fly? Test your nerves by attending the neighborhood film festival at Des Peres Branch Library on Wednesday night, Sept. 9, at 7 p.m.

The films The Disco Alien and Return of the Return of the Fly, were made by Roy Zurick’s classes at Hamilton School. Stars are Michael King, Yvette Lampkin, Jeron Navies, Kelly Strickland, Helen Graham, Ronald Robinson and Renee Weaver. Don’t miss them – or some of our new mysteries. Jonathan Gash’s Spend Game is filled with fascinating details about antiques, and Peggy Hermes’ The Phoenix Nest is on its way.

We have something for every fear. Afraid of big books? James Clavell’s massive, but intriguing, Noble House may help you overcome your fear. Worried that your ceiling will fall down or your floor will fall up? Des Peres Branch is one of five city libraries to receive a grant for home restoration and renovation materials.

They will be arriving over the next few months. What am I afraid of? . . that you won’t come to the library unless you are reminded.

Please prove me wrong.
