MINISTER BLAMES
CHICAGO CRIME ON
HIGHER EDUCATION
Modern Universities Tend to
Develop UnbeIief in Deity
Pastor Says.

By United Press
CHICAGO, June 3.-Murder Of
Robert Franks by Nathan Leopold
and Richard Loeb is the logical
result Of modern non-religious
methods in high education" the
Rev. Simeon Peter Long, leading
Lutheran minister in Chicago and
nationally known lecturer, declared
today.
DR.. Long. in an interview with
the United Press, bitterly attacked
the "so-caIed great institutions of
learning" declaring that they de
velop the intellect at the expense of
the SOUL
These boys were taught that the
intellect is all-important. They came
to worship their intellects and be-
cause they were unusually brilliant,
they believed that they We're great.
They were egotistical and conceited.
Unbelief Greatest Sin
What Leopold and Loeb lacked
was belief They we're professed
atheists and were proud Of it. They
thought it was smart to be unbeliev-
ers. That, as a matter Of fact, was
their greatest sin
DIR. Lang said he believed the
tendency in the large universities is
to emphasize the intellect and to
destroy the fundamental faith in the
Deity-soUething more permanent.
These wo young men" ne said,
were highly polished products of
the University of Chicago and the
University of Michigan. two Of our
greatest institutions of learning. One
of them had been honored with the
Phi Beta Kappa key as a symbol Of
exceptionally meritorious work.
ITO me the difficulty seems to be
in high training Of the intellect
without encouraging belief in the
Deity. This murder is the logical
outcome of great intellects without
belief.
Good May Result
DR. Long said he believed some
good might come out of the Franks
murder.
THE doctrine of intellectual free.
dom is particularly dangerous" he
said, because of the fascination it
exercises over young students. Alb.
solute freedom Of the mind is an ex-
hilarating idea, perhaps because of
it's very danger.

Hero Worship.
IN George Washington, jr.,

IN George Washington. jr., Wesley
Barry, is shown as the son of a
United States senator whose hero is
George Washington.
AS a model of truthfulness he is
painfully so. His valor often gets
much the better of his discretion and
results are some unusual and funny
situations.
Boy psychologists have determined
that the quality in boys who in their
adolescence are called Hero wor-
shippers" has more to do with deter
mining boys future than any other
thing.
The Boy Scouts of America, one of
the greatest boy organizations ever
started. was put into being by men
who had studied boys. They found that
every boy at a certain age is a hero
worshiper and that each boy is pretty
apt to start building his character
unconsciously along the lines the
character of the man he worships
seems to suggest to him.
The scout program capitalizes this
tendency in attempting to furnish
boys at this period with men of
known character as scoutmasters,
who, by their work with the boys,
instill hero worship and at the same
time teach them worthwhile things
that will be of use to them all
through life.
The great successor the scout pro-
gram lies in the fact that the psy-
biologists had the right angle on the
situation and their plan worked ard
worked big.

Ut WET my way into the movies.
That's Mary Philbin's version of
how she broke into the motion pic
lures, but you don't know the half
of it, dearie," as the late Bert Savoy
used to say. Mary's real start was
the result Of an Elks' beauty contest
in Chicago-the tears came when she
broke down from screen fright" dur
ing her first screen test.
Mary's beauty was embryonic and
still undeveloped when she entered
the beauty contest several years ago,
but something wistful and appealing
in her face caught the attention of
the judges and she was awarded
honorable mention. Most beauty con-
rest winners are, in the vernacular of
the studio, "busts," but Carl 1aemmle.
who had promised the successful con-
testant an opportunity to appear in
Universal pictures, had greater vision
than the judges. He saw charm and
pathos in the Philbin girl, whereas
the judges could see only promise
of beauty, yet to be unfolded.
