Zane Grey’s hard-riding, quick
shooting gang is with us again,
this time in "The Rainbow Trail,”
a sequel to “Riders of the Purple
Sage,” which appeared at the Mc
Donald a few weeks ago. George
O’Brien is again the hero, though
playing a different part. The
talkie is good, as westerns go,
showing some fine shots of the
Grand Canyon. Supporting O’Brien
is Cecilia Parker, a newcomer, and
stuttering Roscoe Ates, besides
some of the swellest villains you
ever saw.
The story concerns the attempt
of Shepherd (O’Brien), to reach a
secret valley where two people
have bjen imprisoned for 15 years.
After uiRcaping death by the width
of a horse hair several times and,
yes, iu the end, wins the girl.
There are the usual improbabili
ties for which these dramas of the
old West seem especially licensed.
Roscoe Ates appears once more
in a two-reel comedy \vhich has
its humorous moments.
At Heilig Tomorrow
One of the largest groups of
comedians to ever appear in one
talkie is playing in “Her Majesty
Love,” which begins its three-day
run at the Heilig tomorrow. Mari
lyn Miller, the vibrant dancer and
singer, heads the cast and is sup
ported by able Ben Lyon and the
following old troupers: W. C.
Fields, Ford Sterling, Leon Errol,
ami Chester Conklin. The picture
is by no means flawless, but there
ire many laughs, some good music
ind considerable romantic atmos
phere.

E. T. Hodge Deliver Paper
Exposition To Deal With Oregon
Mineral Deposits
Dr. Edwin T. Hodge, professor
of economic geology, will be the
principal speaker this evening at
a meeting of the Oregon section
of the American Mining and Met
allurgical Engineers in Portland.
He will deliver a paper on mineral
deposits of Oregon.
As a result of extensive re
search in geology in the Oregon
district, Dr. Hodge has discovered
that various mineral deposits can
be related to four periods of de
velopment. At four different times
intrusions of volcanic rock have
produced mineralization. This dis
covery, according to the geologist,
will enable researchers to look for
mineral deposits m ore intelli
gently. This furnishes the first
clue they have had in Oregon of
any systematic occurrence of min
eralization.
Dr. Hodge presented these dis
coveries before Christmas at a
meeting of the Western Mining
Engineers at Spokane.

Dying Student Aids Science
From Boston comes the story of
a heroic Harvard medical student
who dedicated the last four months
of his life to medical science in a
careful study of a heart ailment
that resulted in unusual observa
tions not generally known.
The student was Alfred Sey
mour Reinhart, 24, who had
worked his way through Harvard
by scholarships to graduate "mag
na cum laude” and had spent three
years in the medical school pre
vious to his recent death.
Rather than take drugs which
would have prevented his record
ing of any final reactions, he en
dured excruciating pain.
The ailment resulted from an at
tack of rheumatism that affected
a heart valve when Reinhart was
still in high school. During his
student days at Harvard he dis
covered that tiny particles were
breaking off from the scar on the
injured heart and lodging in his
blood vessels.
Last July symptoms appeared
which he knew meant an early
death. He then decided to spend
the remainder of his life in an ef
fort to aid medical science and en
tered a special laboratory set aside
for him in a Boston hospital.

Scholars Not Depressed
Financial losses of their parents
in the depression have caused stu
dents of Bowdoin college in Bruns
wick, Maine, to display a marked
increase in desire and ability to
obtain good grades. This is the!
opinion of Dean Paul Nixon, who
discovered that the number of mid
semester warnings for poor grades
has dropped noticeably this year.

Beowulf, about 500 or 600 years

We Wonder
A survey of Indiana high school
seniors on the basis of their choices
of careers has showed that those
planning to be journalists register
the highest ratio of intelligence.
The intelligence rating of the stu
dents on this basis was in the
order:
Journalists, scientists, ministers,
lawyers, farmers and physicians.
Girls planning to be lawyers
showed a higher rating than boys
with the same ambition. The low
est class among the girls was those
who wrere planning to do clerical
work.

Honor students and “flunk
