Although commercial uses are outsldo her aims, Miss King has suggested that rats with curls or un usual coloring might have commer cial value for furs. Among her rats ore breeds with chocolate, cinnamon and pale lapln colored coats. In 20 years of study she has found evidence that the mutations the changes which produce new varieties of plants and animals occur most frequently among rats Jin the) litters of very old or very young parents.

AT THE LIBERTY The picture of lire in a great mod ern hospital Is one that has been painted again and again on stage and screen, so that the shdbr phenomena of hospital activity ore no longer se crets to anyone. But rarely has this been shown with any point of view beyond the idea of revelation and ex pose. In "Men in White," the new Metro-Gold wyn -Mayer film co-starring Clark Gable and Myrna Loy, now playing at the Liberty theatre, the medical background Is used In vivid nnd thorough detail but only as an Illustration of the conflict in the life of a young interne. Plans to Mnrry Clark Gable appears as Dr. Fergu son In "Men in White," a young In terne who realizes all the obligations of his profession but has not yet been able to resign hlmsoTT to the de privation of a personal social in stance. His love for a society girl (played by Myrna Loy) Is something he considers entirely natural; he plans marriage and a vacation abroad. Ironically, and unfortunately, It is his very talent and promise as a sur geon which brings about an Impasse, for, the surgeon under whom he Is working (a role taken by .Jean Her sholt) objects strenuously to his tak ing any time out from the studies which will take him years and years before ho can call himself a good surgeon. Out of all this conflict grows an Important realization about sacrifice and devotion to the cause of caring for humanity's ills.
