O'BRIEN BELIEVES IN
ATHLETICS A-PLENTY

II there is one thing that keeps
man ft, mentally and physically.
and helps him stay at the top notch
OF eficiency-that one thing is sth-
letics and plenty of it"
This is the belief OF Eugene
O'Brien, who comes tomorrow to
Crandalls Metropoliton and Knicker-
booker Theaters in his second SeIznick
picture, Sealed Hearts" Not only
does he hold to this belief, but he
practices il day in and day out the
year round and has for the past ff-
teen years.
Eugene O'Brien's devotion TO ath-
letics first became apparent when he
was attending the university of his
native State, Colorado. His athletic
name was Versatility" he having
heen captain OF the baseball, football
and basketball teams. His only COM
plant at that time was that there was
no polo and soccer teams on which
he could play.
But despite his enthusiasm for
sports, OBrien was not a one sided
college man. The power of his body
is matched by the keenness of his
mind. He is said to have been one
of the brightest students graduated
from the university.
