Marx Brothers In
Rollicking Circus
Hit At Craterian
A mirthquake such as only
those Marx Brothers can bring
about opened yesterday at the
Craterian theater in "Marx Bros,
at the Circus." From start to
finish it proved one of the most
successful comedies out of Hol
lywood since the last Marxian
epic.
Having overrun many other
fields for comedy concoction, the
Merry Marxians now run amuck
beneath the Big Top of a stream
lined circus to bombard their
audiences with their new gags
and comedy sequences. Inter
mingled with the Marxes and
their streamlined circus are all
the thrilling acts, acrobats,
equestriennes, clowns and ani
mals typical of the circus world.
They share ths camera with
scores of circus animals, a go
rilla, a seal, an orang-utan, nn
upside-down-girl, a midget vil
lain, the world s strongest man
and a symphony orchestra cast
adrift on a raft. Portraying the
oustanding roles are Kenny
Baker, Florence Rice, Eve Ar
den, Margaret Dumont and Nat
Pendleton.
The picture Is the story of
Kenny Baker, circus owner, who
escapes losing his circus through
the cooperation of Groucho, Har
po and Chico, which is accom
plished through a chain of hilar
ious episodes. Beautiful musi
cal numbers. ' with Harpo and
Chico contributing with harp
and piano, are woven through
the. comedy.
SILL TO BUILD
SERVIGESTATION
Ted F. Hornecker, Medford
manager of the Shell Oil com
pany, today announced virtual
completion of plans to construct
a modern service station costing
$5,000 at 333 North Riverside
avenue, on the southwest corner
of Jackson boulevard and Riv
erside avenue.
The property has been leased
from Mary E. Gustafson and'
actual work will start probably
in two weeks, Mr. Hornecker
stated. The station should he
completed in five or six weeks
after the start of construction,
he said.
The station will be similar to
that built in Ashland recently
and will have four gasoline
pumps, an electric hoist and
complete lubrication facilities.

Butler ranked next to McRey
nolds as the tribunal's leading
dissenter.
Major decisions to which But
ler dissented last term included
rulings holding constitutional
the 1938 agricultural adjustment
act, holding that a group of pri
vate power companies could not
attack the constitutionality of
the Tennessee valley authority
power program, and that a state
may impose an income tax on
salary received by federal em
ployes. Only Catholic
Butler was the only Catholic

cabin, Butler practiced law at

ing, a Republican.
New Watch Testing
Machine Installed
Brophy's Jewelers
Another ancient skill is being
pushed by the wayside, replaced
by a machine. This time it is
the skilled watchmaker who
finds himself pitted against the
perfection of a machine, accord
ing to Leland Brophy who an
nounced today that a new
Watchmaster recorder has just
been installed at Brophy's Jew
elers. The new machine draws out
a complete picture of what's
wrong with a watch in 30 sec
onds. "In the 30 seconds the watch
is on the machine we find out
what it formerly took days to
determine," Mr. Brophy said.
"A watch must be in perfect
condition to get past the ma
chine as it detects many faults
that do not show up readily to
the human eye and ear."
The machine was discovered
accidentally in the laboratories
of the Bell Telephone company,
where technicians were working
on another problem.

fined to four words: "No special
events yesterday."
German sea warfare is more
active than communiques Indi
cate, the olficial German news
agency, DNB, asserted, discount
ing British and French claims
of success against Germany sub
marines. By the Associated Press
Quiet on Europe's battlefields
is giving the world time to con
sider what really lies behind the
war which, aside from Ger
many's conquest of Poland, has
produced no major battles on
either land or sea.
Evidence grows that at least
in Germany that the struggle Is
considered one for world power
between an expanding German
reich which already has wiped
out the independence of three
nations at her borders Austria,
Czccho-Slovakia and Poland
and the old, established British
empire. The Germans have pic
tured France as the misled ally
of Britain.
Russia Enigma
Soviet Russia provides an
enigmatic element of overwhelm
ing importance that both powers
must consider, however.
To Germany it is important
that war be confined to only one
front and that sources of raw
materials be kept open.
Fear of communist Russia in
fluenced British foreign policy
ever since the bolshevik revolu
tion of 1917.
Many observers believe that
even now Britain would look
with apprehension on too severe
a defeat for her German enemy
in fear that a twice-defeated na
tion would be fertile ground for
sovietization.
The western front, as for days
past, remained quiet today and
warfare ebbed at sea.
Weather Hampers War
111 of gout, Prime Minister
Lnamoenaln sent a report on
the war to the house of commons
saying that bad weather had cur
tailed land operations, but that
British forces had improved
their defense positions.
The only report from France
was a recapitulation of sea oper
ations which .said 223,297 tons
of merchandise consigned to
Germany had been captured by
the French navy up to Nov. 10.
