As Educational Institution

Boston, Oct. S-(AP)-Ths open
ing Of the Repertory Theatre OF
Boston with Sheridan's 1.-THE Rivals
gives official recognition to a theatre
a. IN educational institution. and
thus is exempted from taxation.
Patterned somewhat along the
lines Of many civic theatres of Eu-
rope, the workers on this stage will
strive not only for the perfection of
their art but also to give earnest
students of the drama chance to
absorb the real atmosphere of the
theatre. It's educational efforts will
be to present plays of artistic merit
to the public, to interest high school
students in the theatre. and to train
and teach embryo actors and ac-
tresses.
Professional actors and actresses
will play the characters while stu
dents look on at rehearsals and re-
ceive their instruction from these
same professionals.
The theatre is the outcome of
years of effort. and for Henry Jew
EFT, its director. and Mrs. Jewett,
who has been the guiding hand in
many phases of the work, it is q
vision realized.
Finances of the theatre will be
handled by a board of trustees and
the entire project will be non-profit
making. Mr.. Jewett hopes eventu-
ally to buy original plays and send
out road companies to show other
cities what the Repertory Theatre is
doing in the hope that similar pro-
jects may be launched elsewhere.
The theatre itself cost $150OOO
and embraces all that is modern.
It will accommodate 400 people.

Greenland's Ice Caps
Responsible for
Europe's Weather

Copenhagen, Sept. IA (AP)-H a
meteorological wireless station were
established in the interior of Green
land, 1t would be possible to warn
Europe of coming storms with abso-
lutte certainty, in the opinion-or Prof.
w. H. Hobbs of Michigan University.
Prof. Hobbs is here assisting In the
scientific program for the expedition
of Lauge Koch across the inland ice
Of Greenland next year.
A similar phenomenon is only to be
found on the Antarctic continent,
where Sir Douglas Mawson. by wire
less from the inland ice. warned the
south coast Of Australia of a terrible
cyclone that reached Australia AZ
hours later. said Prof. Hobbs.
Most Of the weather affecting Eu-
rope comes from Greenland's icy
mountains. Prof. Hobbs believes.
The results Of the long series Of
expeditions on the inland ice, which
We're commenced by Dalager some
$50 years ago, clearly show that the
storms of Northern and Western Eu-
rope originate as cyclones in the
cold air Of the interior of Greenland
and from there range over and be-
yond the coasts with a violence
which surpasses that Of tropical
hurricane" he said.
In the interior of Greenland 1t is,
according to my theory. practically
calm. The clouds there descend on
the mountain tops. which is the
cause of the thick fog with frost rim,
which 1t always mentioned in re-
ports from there. From the interior
the winds are then blown to all sides
out beyond the coasts"
The new Koch expedition across
Greenland will have an opportunity
Of testing Prof. Hobbs theories.
Koch will carry self-registering ap-
paratus for measuring meteorological
al conditions and newly invented APP
pliances, able to stand the shaking OF
sledge travels.

Prince Invitation to Dance
Also Includes Fiance

Montevideo, Sept. 14.-(AP)-The
American colony here believes it has
a joke on the British colony and also
upon select Uruguayan society be-
cause the Prince of Wales preferred
an American girl as dancing part
ner during the social festivities in
his honor when he visited the Uru-
guayan capital.
They think also there is a Joke
somewhere on the Prince, too, for
when the Prince especially invited
her to the dance, the American girl
would not go unless her fiance was
also invited. He was and went,
watched the Prince dance with her
three times in succession, and "cut
in when His Highness begged for
a fourth.
The Prince saw her-Miss veron-
lea Purviance, of Kansas City,
daughter of Charles Purviance,
manager of the Armour packing
plant here-at luncheon given to
His Highness by the British colony.
Mr.. Puryiance had been invited,
with his family. as president of the
American Association of Montevideo.
The next day Miss Purviance re-
ceived card from the British Min
lister saying that at His Royal High
ness request she was invited to at
tend a reception and dance the
Prince was giving. She answered
that, as she was engaged, the invi-
tation would have to include her
fiance. with the result that a card
also went to Leonard WEIGH of the
Buenos Aires branch of the National
City Bank, who hurriediy took the
next boat to Montevideo.
No other Americans and no Eng
lish were invited to the dance, which
was to repay the attentions of the
Uruguayans. The Uruguayan senior
itas of the best families were out in
force. The three dances the Prince
danced with Miss Purviance were
the first three, and it is said that
when she reminded the Prince that
he had duty to perform and should
dance with the others, he replied:
I'm fed UP with duty Dances 1t
was here that her fiance claimed
her.

Influx to Hollywood
Favored by Film Executives

Hollywood, Cal, Oct. S-(AP)-
Some executives of film land favor
ably view the great influx yearly of
thousands of men, women and
youths seeking careers in the motion
pictures.
Cecil B. DeMille, speaking on the
subject, declared that publicity
which advises young men and wo-
men not to come to HOLLYWOOD for
MIN employment is becoming a
detriment to further progress"
Instead Of needing less, we need
more young people Of ambition and
imagination. Motion picture favor
ties lose their hold in from five to
eight years. The raw material from
which a producer picks his new
faces may today be working in a
small town garage, department
store or attending high school or
college in any one OF $4,000 COM
munities.
certainly no helpless or unintelli-
gent individual should be permitted
TO come. To those who are willing
TO gamble with a few years of their
nves, a period of hard work at mea-
ger salaries may result in splendid
reward. A comparatively small per-
centage get to the top, it is true, but
the top is financially so worth while
that young people Of spirit may we'll
consider the opportunity a real chal-
lenge.
Many stars of today stand out as
examples of how success can be at
tanned through acceptance of hard
work"
Inc Universal Corporation is
training a score of screen aspirants
IN small parts who are considered
good material for future picture
personalities. The class will be en-
larged with new material.
