Three members of the Boston Committee Against Racism (CAR) were arrested last Saturday by Boston Police while picketing the movie "Snuff."

The picketers said they were protesting the racist nature of the Argentine-made move, because it degraded Latin Americans through the use of torture scenes.

Nancy Scollard '63, a second-year Divinity students and a member of the Harvard-Radcliffe CAR said it is rumored that a woman was actually killed during the making of the movie.

"This could just be an advertising hoax," Scollard said yesterday, "but even then it would be objectionable, because the implications are racist and degrading."
