When a small portion of either of the drugs one three-million ,h of an ounce was Injected beneath the animal's skin the tall would curve over Its back In an 8-shape forma tion. A similar Incident occurred when the mouse was given small portions of saliva taken from the mouth of a horse that had been "doped." 4- Crowds Enjoy Talk By "Pinto" Colvig An old friend of Medford'a came home yesterday and, as the pocte art, "a goodly crowd was there" to wel come him at the Craterlan theatre, where "Pinto" Colvig is meeting old acquaintances and making new ones while he shows how sound effects are put Into Mickey Mouse cartoons and the Billy Symphonies at the Walt Dis ney studios. Here to help celebrate Judge Col vlg's BOth birthday, "Pinto" is at the same demonstrating how clever use of everyday objects can create the neces aary sound effect without going to big expense to catch the originals. A derby hat, of all things, emits the put-put-put of a mo tor boat; the famous "yellow clarinet" la used tor the moo of a cow; a "six buck" slide trombone picked up pawn shop, creates the whine of an airplane; a bunch of bamboo when rustled to gether ts the sound of a forest fire, and so on down the line with numer ous little srtlclea Including bamboo sticks, balloons, gravel and what have you, coming In for their share In vari ous noise making roles. "Pinto" even sings a "Pluto" number, and while doing so, emlta some extremely real istic barks. It's Interesting, to say the least, and yesterday's audiences found It very much so. On the screen, the feature picture, "Here Comes the Navy." has two Irish boys. James Cagney and Pat O'Brien (Is that an Irish name!) as two got who hate each other with a bitter intensity. They carry on a feud that ts punctuated with rapid fire action and many thrills, winding up In surprise climax. There are numerous shots of the Pacific Fleet in action and. according to all reports, which seem ably verified by the action of the film, the entire picture was sht with the co-operation of the U. 8. Navy. The rescue of a gun crew from a flaming turret and the saving or a msn carried aloft clinging to a ground wire of a dirigible, are two of the most exciting moments. e TUtihlt Pursuit u tul LI MANS, Prance.
