FRANCE BOOSTS

Vast Extension Mapped Out

PARIS, Aug. 27.-France is about
to, embark upon a vast program Of
educational extension. This is large
ly due to the persistence of the
present minister of education and
fine arts. M. Edouard Herriot. In
spired by the initial success of the
Cite University. which soon will
provide quarters for the students Of
nearly a score of nations, he has
seen the possibility of giving France
unique position in the intellectual
world.
The next French parliament will
be asked, M. Herriot has informed
his colleagues, to vote credits for
the extension of the Cite Univer-
sitaire movement to the provincial
universities. In addition, more eX-
tensive interchange of professors
with foreign universities and
awarding of scholarships for study
abroad are to be arranged. Offices
are to be established in the prin-

concerning the curriculum of
French universities and colleges.

LINK RESEATING
WITH ELECTION
Failure to Pass Law May
Defeat Hoover.

BIZ Times Special
WASHINGTON. Aug. 27.-Failure
of Congress to reapportion member
ship of the House of Representa-
tives may decide the presidential
election this year.
The presidency goes to the man
who wins a majority of votes in the
electoral college. And each State
is represented IN the electoral col
lege on the basis of its numerical
representation in Congress.
If reapportionment had been
made on the basis of the 1920 CEN
sus at any time during the last ten
years. twelve electoral votes would
have been taken from States no
longer entitled to them and trans
ferred to others. Twelve is a small
part of the total of 53l votes in the
electoral college, but the contest be-
tween Wilson and Hughes was set
tied by as small a number.
The change, if it had been made,
would have worked to the
of Hoover. Three of the
electoral votes transferred would
have gone to California, and alto
gether eight of the twelve would
have gone to States he has an ex-
cellent chance. of winning.

The story con- "J WAY
Germs an old southern family, which
has run to seed to the extent that
the present generation, instead of
upholding the traditions of former
years, has sunk to the low level of
poor white trash"
Cooper is cast as the only am
bilious one in a group of four
brothers, the remaining descendants
of their once powerful family. The
other three brothers have acquired
the habits of their father and are
worthless hangers on, leaving all the
work to Mulligan Talbot, played by
Cooper.
Mulligan, through the death of
his father, decides to run the family
himself and put new fire in the
blood of his brothers. He is deeply
in love with Anna Lee Marshall,
played by Fay Wray, the daughter
of one of the richest men in town.
Anna Leeh as promised to marry
him, but his chance of happiness
must wait until his brothers have
been taken care of.
To get the money to pay for his
brothers schooling Mulligan be-
comes famous river pirate, stealing
just enough to keep his promise of
education for the family.
Eventually the brothers graduate
with honorS. Mulligan'S debt is
paid His next act is to sell the one
thing left to him, the boat he has
built for himself and Anna Lee.
From the sale of this ship he makes
enough to return all the money he
has stolen. In doing this he is
traced and caught, and finally
brought into court to be tried as a
thief.
The story never lags and is in
tensely interesting all through.
Cooper and Fay Wray make a
strong appeal in their roles of two
youthful lovers, who have the
patience to wait. 1t carries lot of
truth and is human.
Mitzi Mayfair is the most appeal
ing of the stage attractions this

honest sweetheart, played with
charm by Carmel Myers. The young
gangster is getting along on the
straight road when Monk" a mem
Der of the gang, shows up and tells
him that he has captured the gang
as well as his sweetheart. John Gill
bert is cast as the young gangster
who served time. Of course, there
is always the bad woman Just
around the corner, and she is played
to dashingly cruel satisfaction by
Joan Crawford. She sure shows up
Splendidly in this role. In fact. you
will remember her as the cruel bad
woman who took a lad away from
a good gal.
To my way of thinking, Gilbert
does not have the chance that he
had in Twelve Miles Out" but he
does give a good, legitimate per-
formance of the young gangster who
had a tough time in going straight.
1t is the unusual handling of the
love of the bad woman and the
love of the good one for the same
man that commands attention.
Gilbert proves that he can create
a character along convincing lines
when the theme is not romantic.
There is good acting on the part
of the entire cast.

and other events.

Jackie and his dad do a hoof1ng
number together. Jackie recites a
poem which is supposed to be tragic
but turns out to be just a wise
cracker. I felt that Jackie realizes
that he is no longer the kid at
thirteen that he was when he was
seven. He gives you the impress
sion that he is seasoned actor
who knows that baby talk is not
artistry. He pulls none of that in
nocent baby stuff on his audience
but seems anxious to give the i'm
preston that he is adult in mind.
In other words, we have growing
Jackie Coogan who is not going to
keep on telling you that he is the
lad who made such a hit in 1.-THE
Kid some years ago.
There will be many who will cry
out loud that it is too bad that
Jackie could not remain just kid"
and. I think that Dad" Coogan is
mighty wise in not keeping his son
any longer in the cradle. Jackie is
entering the long pant era of his
life and the elder Coogan is wise
in making his son as adult as his
changing years.
Here is a smart act. No SlapStick
hokum, but just wise remarks done
in a very modern stagelike way. I
like the act and do not find fault
with the adult showmanship way Of
Jackie.
The Coogans appear as the tea
tured act in the stage show at the
circle. Dick Powell has a corking
good Spanish number and the
dancing girls and chief dancer
have g splendid shawl number. This
number is splendid. beautifully done.
There are two athletes in the
stage show; I forget their names
but they know their bushes. They
work with speed while doing some
very amazing things.

to indianapolis that the citizens OF

unusual ability of Konjola to re-

1T was the first medicine that has

treatment and this medicine GER

Conrad arrives just as his brother

His brother was to be made the
