On Thursday, November 2, "Idaho Votes No on HJR2" will present the
Palouse Premiere of Seth Randal's documentary film, "The Fall of '55," at 7:00 PM at the Kenworthy Performing Arts Centre in Moscow. The film is free and open to the public.

In the fall of 1955, the citizens of Boise were told there was a menace in their midst. On Halloween of that year, three men were
arrested--accused of being part of a giant "sex ring." There was no such ring, but the result was a widespread investigation which some people now call a witch hunt. Bythe time the investigation ended 16 men were charged with sex crimes.

The investigation attracted the attention of "Time Magazine" and
newspapers across America. The subsequent publicity left scars which remain to this day.

Head of Special Collections and Associate Professor at Boise State
University Albertsons Library, Alan Virta, who was the historian on the film, will participate in a panel discussion immediately following the film.

The film is being sponsored by the Latah County Human Rights Task Force,the Unitarian Universalist Church of the Palouse Social Action Committee,Tabikat Productions, WSU YWCA, and the UI Student Chapter of ACLU.
