WHITE SHADOWS rs
A. GOOD PRODUCTION

The most beautiful scenery, the
most interesting characters, the most
thrilling adventures and the most am
azing love story ever filmed.
Thus reviewers everywhere are
characterizing Metro-G -Goldwyn- Mayors
"White Shadows in the South Seas"
which will be shown at the Iris Thea
ire on Sunday and Monday, May IL
and 13, and the reviewers have not
been far wrong.
If ever picture has been filmed
that has everything-a locale never
photographed before, actors who never
before have been seen on the screen,
plot that is new and almost radical
this picture has them all.
The story is laid in the South Seas,
that amazing mystery place of wav-
ing palm trees, soft southern winds
and eccentric scenery. 1t concerns the
fate of primitive race, the native
Polynesians who as every schoolboy
has been taught, are rapidly dying out
and within few years will have van
ished from the earth.
1t opens with a sequence which
hows what terrible hardships the
whites have and are inflicting on the
simple natives-how, led on by the
white mans greed for pearls, they
dive to terrific depths in search of
the jewels; how their bodies are crush
ed by the tremendous depths and their
souls by the white mans Indifference
With this opening, the story goes
into an amazing adventure of Dir.
Lloyd Monte Blue), beach-comber
physician who earns the enmity of
the whites by his friendship with the
natives and who is shanghaied from
the island aboard pest ship.
How he is shipwrecked on an un-
discovered island and meets love n
the shape of Polynesian princess
who has never before seen a white
mans shadow greed-leads him to
betray the princess and her people is
one of the strongest stories ever
brought to the screen.
Monte Blue performs excellently
with the role of the doctor. Raquel
Torres is equally good with Faya-
way, and director w. S. VanDyke
has produced a perfect screen pic
ture. e

Edited Entirely by Carbon
County High School Students
THE CLASS OF '29

Only few more weeks remain be-
fore the Glass of '29 will be leaving
the Carbon County High School. The
members of the class will go their sep
arate ways. Some will attend colleges;
while others will take their places in
the business world without further
preparation.
We have spent four memorable
years in this school, and now as the
last days of our high school life draw
near, most of us feel lost and wish
that four more years such as these
last ones were before us. But this
part of our life is almost past, and
will never return.
AS we gaze back on four of the most
eventful years of our life, we see our
mistakes and recognize the things we
should have been done but didn't. We
see the opportunities we should have
taken advantage of but passed over.
We have a feeling of regret that
we didn't accomplish more but it is
too late. In the future, however, we
will profit by our mistakes in the past,
and our lives will be bigger and better
because of them.
We have worked here and played
here, and now we are leaving as all
classes sometime do. Yet as the years
pass we'll look back on the school, and
the strong ties which we made here
will never be broken, but will remain
with us as some of our most prescious
treasures.
