PLEADS INNOCENT GRANTS PASS, Jan. 14. (AP) Hugo Mayer, "Hermit of the Craggles," pleaded not guilty to the murder of Robert Fantz, lower Illinois river val ley rancher, on arraignment In circuit court here this morning. He was In dicted by the county grand Jury Sat urday. When a&ked for his plea, Mayer said: 'I killed him, all right." "Do you then plead guilty?" Judge Norton asked. Mayer started to reply but his at torney, W. T. Miller, stepped forward and said the plea would be not guilty. Fantz waa Bhot November 9 in the wilderness district on the Curry-Jo sephine county line. If Mayer continues to admit the shooting, It is expected several courses are open to his attorneys: To plead Justifiable homicide. Insanity, or that the shooting occurred in Curry coun ty.

Leaving out all the usual hokum found In college stories and de voted to the thesis that all college life Isn't one long rah-rah, "Bach elor of Arts" shows the students working out their various problems in a human and believable man ner, though always with a sense of humor. 4 SCREEN REVIEW By Dick Applegate It seems as though It la no longer possible for a charming girl to ever marry the right man on the first day, at least if the cinematic world Is to be taken as a criterion, aa I suppose it shouldn't. It would be refreshing If Just one of the several hundred who marry In a year's hordo of pictures could get away from the drudgery of get ting the wrong man in the first reel, either to discover In the last that 6he really does love him, (a fact which she discovers after var ious affairs with other men), or to have the one true man arrive shortly after the wedding ceremony, ruining her life utterly, or breaking the heart of the wrong husband and the true, alike. With such a story It must be difficult to make the party go to turn out a performance which will be exceptional when viewed in the light of a hundred other stories cast In the same mold, and still that is just what Greta Garbo does In "The Painted Veil," which open ed yesterday at the Craterlan. But then, of course, Garbo Is Garbo, and Garbo fans would like her If she were playing Little Eva or one of the witches from McBcth. And Garbo fans are legion. Consequently the picture, combin ing Garbo's talents with those of George Brent and Herbert Marshall, to say nothing of remarkable scenic effects which would make the pic ture a success, If nothing else did, Is good entertainment from start to finish. Herbert Marshall, who plays the part of a brilliant and self sacri ficing doctor who gives his talents In an effort to check cholera plagues In China, and who la the Mr. Garbo of the picture, succeeds in looking the part of a doctor who haa been fighting cholera plagues In China, Really looking tired Instead of Just silly must be truly difficult, yet Marshall la con vincing and sincere. Swell for Garbo fans, good en tertainment for everyone else, and although you might not believe this, a funny comedy, with Thelma Todd and Patsy Kelly. Use Mall Tribune want ads.

The first man-mountain to hold the title paused only a moment. "I think Jack Johnson must have been the greatest. He was a wonder ful boxer and In our fight at Ha vana, he was amazingly clever. He could punch and was hard to hit. Although old and heavy, he fou?ht 3fl rounds under a broiling sun. And that takes courage 1" Wlllard thinks Dempsey caught him on the down grade after four years of Idleness. The next champion?" Big Jess didn't have the answer and said so. "There isn't much in sight now.' he commented. "Lasky la a fine-looking fellow, but can't seem to get the good ones. Levlnsky is big and clumsy tough and that's all.
