CAREER OF CASTLES
______
A dhering closely to the real-life
8tOry of Vernon an d Irene Castle,
world-fam ous dancing team of a
q u a rte r century ago, Fred A staire
and Ginger Rogers’ new co-starrin g
vehicle, “The Story of V ernon and
Irene Castle,” is reported to be the
finest musical film of recent years
and the greatest of all the pictures
in w hich these two favorites have
teamed.
The story opens w ith Vernon Cas
tle’s early career as a knock-about
comedian w ith Lew Fields, and his
PAGE T H R U
first m eeting w ith the th en Irene
Foote, who persuaded him to give
up cheap comedy in favor of danc
ing.
How th e two m arried on the pro
verbial shoestring, w ent to P aris and
nearly starved before they got a
sta rt as a team, is revealed in de
lightful fashion. T heir m eteoric
rise to fame in dance engagem ents
which took them across two conti

tablished as the o u tstanding dance
duo of th e ir tim e; the breaking-up
of the team when Vernon enlisted
w ith the British forces on th e o u t
break of the W orld W ar; and his u n
tim ely death in a Texas a ir crash,
are main ingredients in a story
which is depicted in impressive and
tuneful fashion ag ain st typical back
grounds of the period.

In the opening rem arks of S tate
Master Fay G ill’s annual address, he
said, “ It is especially fittin g th a t
the sta te G range should assemble
here a t the home of the land g ran t
college. In a large sense, th e N a
tional G range was th e fath e r of the
movement w hich brought to us the
land g ra n t college and the extension
services, including the county agent
system ."
Oregon now has 377 S ubordinate
G ranges with a m em bership roll of
22,533. Every county in Oregon,
w ith but one exception, has an ac

More th an 2000 boys and girls from
all over th e sta te were there. Many
of them were enjoying G range scho
larships.
Columbia G range could not be
represented at th e S tate G range con
vention, b u t by the issuing of a
scholarship we made it possible for

to enjoy the sum m er school session.
We hope in the n ear fu tu re to have
M arian tell us about her busy week
in Corvallis.
The S tate G range will meet in Sa
