Dinner to honor founder of MSSU film festival

(From Southern News Service)

A dinner to honor Harrison Kash – founder of the International Film Society at Missouri Southern State University – will be held at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 15, in Room 356 of Billingsly Student Center.

The Film Society was founded in 1962 by Kash, Alma Doan, Arthur Boles and Philip Jones as an activity of the Ozark Artists Guild. It has been supported by a combination of ticket sales, contributions and funding provided by the Missouri Arts Council and the MSSU Institute of International Studies.

Nearly 500 foreign films have been screened for audiences since its inception.

Kash, an assistant professor of chemistry at MSSU from 1958-1997, provided a $50,000 endowment to the Film Society in 2014. It was renamed the Harrison and June Kash International Film Society in his honor.

The endowment will help fund guest lectures by film scholars to accompany screenings. The first undertaking will be the “Kurosawa: Sword of Cinema, Force of Life” symposium on March 15 featuring Stephen Prince from Virginia Tech. Prince will speak at 11 a.m. in Cornell Auditorium on “Akira Kurosawa: A Life in Cinema” and participate in a 3 p.m. panel discussion in Phelps Theater.

“That’s something we’ve always lacked – bringing speakers here,” Kash said. “But we also want the endowment to honor the people who have contributed so much all these years by volunteering their time. There were dozens and dozens of people, and my wife was one of them.”

The cost of the dinner is $20 per person. Reservations must be made by March 10. To RSVP, contact Cindy Jordan at the Institute of International Studies at ext. 4442.

Apparent drunk on playground causes lockdown at Irving

(From the Joplin Police Department)

The Joplin Police Department received a “Lock Down” activation from Irving School at 12:06 P.M. on today’s date.

Irving Elementary is located at 2901 S. McClelland Blvd. Joplin, MO.

When officers arrived in the area it was determined that an adult male contacted staff on the playground asking suspicious questions.

The male appeared to be intoxicated and initially refused to leave the property.

A teacher utilized the “Lockdown Mobile Application” to notify the school and law enforcement of a potential problem. The male then left the area on foot.

Officers began checking the area around the school and located a male matching the description of the subject who had been on the playground. This person was identified as Steven Sneed, age 41 of Joplin. Sneed was arrested for trespassing. Investigation determined that this was an isolated incident.

 The lock down at Irving has been lifted.
