by psychopathology
 Probably the most famous case in recent years was that of Nijinsky the dancing partner of Anna Pav- Iowa, who imagined himself a horse. The degeneration in his personality was noted by his wife when he began to initiate the prancing of a horse and it's neigh ing. When asked to explain his queer antics he replied that he had been transformed into a steed. He was committed to an asylum where it is said, he cantered out into a meadow and proceeded to graze on clover.
 Children brought up by wolves, bears and other animals are fairly common in literature and tradition. The story of Romulus and Renus, the founders of Rome e, is well known. The emblem of the Eternal City still bears a figure of the mother wolf in remembrance of her maternal care.

Sound effects and music, perfect ly synchronized with the action of the picture by Paramount's new processes, enhance the natural beauty and majesty of Richard Dix's latest starring picture, Red skin" The picture, more than two thirds filmed in natural color is a new epic of the West, a compan- ion-piece for the famous Richard Dix masterpiece, "The Vanishing American"
 No pains were spared to make this picture, which will show at the Coliseum Sunday, one of the greatest ever placed on the screen Newly perfected Technicolor pro- cesses, designed to photograph the scenic beauty of the famous his toric places of the West just as they appear to the eye, were con- tracted for and used with remark able results.
 "A special theme song, "Redskin, which has already won universa approval from radio and dance or chestra audiences, is introduced 1T the picture and splendid chorus oi men and women chants the origi. nal Indian songs, including the vel known wedding chant of the Maya, jps.
 xDuring the ceremonial dances il several sequences of the picture, ths Heat of the tom-toms and the lov singing of the Indian braves ant suuaws add to the realism.
 Miss Helen Clark, Victor record ing artist, sings the theme sonl during the showing of the film and the Paramount orchestra of q pieces carries the musical SCOT throughout. The song was writer by J. s. Zamechik and Harry s Kerr.

 Across the Potomac in Virginia they selected a spot. And there were laid out two 18-hole golf courses, a battery of tennis courts, a large outdoor natatorium and two polo fields. Tn addition, space was reserved for 8 flying field where officers may park their planes while playing golf.
 The golf course was laid out by means of an alrplane Maj. R. D. Newman did the job. Obliquc and vertical pictures were taken at alti- tudes of 5000 and 1000 feet on a scale of approximately two miles to one inch.
 So perfect were the majors pic lures that a Chicago landscape art ist is supervising all of the plant ing and landscaping of the grounds without ever having seen the club He is guided only by a plethora oi air pictures and topographic infor- nation submitted by Newman.

Fees Are Low

At present the club membership is approximately 2,200 Developments thus far have been supported en- tirely by the small initiation fees and dues of the members.
 It is the ultimate ambition 10 enroll every army, navy and marine officer who comes to Washington on the club roster. The success of the army and navy club, long a vital factor in the social life of Washington, is due to this and the same principle is to be followed n regard to the country club.
 Historically appropriate is the site of the club It was here that Jeb Stuart led a force of 5000 con- federate cavalry within five miles of the White House during the civil war. The smaller union force fired on them near the elevated first tee of the present golf course

 ca, to the final fadeout of the hero inc in the arms of the flying ace, Won in the Clouds" is breath taking, hair-raising, seat-gripping thriller as was shown by the pack ed house of "firstnighters."
 Al Wilson, the star, will un- doubtedly gain many new fans from his daredevil escapades in this pie ture for he has by far outdone any of his previous productions. With his usual calm, uneTring skill he pilots the entire action of the story to the most spectacular and dra- matic climax ever seen in picture of this type.

COMEDY IS PRESENTED
 SCHOOL CAST
Tommy Goes Over 1T Fine Fashion Last
 Performance Tonight

"Tcmmy," the three-act comedy given by the students of the Ju- neau High School, was presented in Elks Hall last night to a large and enthusiastic audience.
 The plot has to do with the fi- nancial troubles of MT. and Mrs. Thurber, whose efforts to sell their land to the town for a municipal golf course, leads to complications between their daughter Marie and Tommy Mills, her fiance. David Futile, Maries uncle, apparently favors the suit of Bernard, another of Marie's beaus, who owns spif- fy orange and green car, but is se- cretly on Tommys side. There are plenty of laughs all through the show and the last act causes the greatest of hilarity.
 To Elsie Jensen undoubtedly goes the honors for genuinely good act ing. She played the part of Mrs. Thurber with the ease of an old trouper The other members ot the cast follow so closely, however, that it would be hard to name second choice for skill in acting, as all of them entered into their parts wholeheartedly and played them well
 1 MT. Thurber, riaycd by Harry Brandt, and whose name was inad- vertently left off the program, has good comedy part and makes the most of it. Tommy Mills, played by Bennie Messer, was rather a difficult part because of the lengthy dialogue and the change in char acter from a nice, clean, upstandlAg young man to an impertinent ano incbriated fellow whom no p2renl would like to have around the house.
 Marie. played by Ceceilie Larson was hard part because her lovt affair with Tommy was serious bus lingss, and it is always harder to bt serious than to be funny.
 Earl Lagergren, as Bernard, i gcod in his part. His entrance 1T plus fours in the second act, wa lgreeted by a chorus of "oh's."
 John Hellenthal plays the part O the astute uncle, David Futile astute in affairs of the heart a well as in politics. By following his advice, Tommy-but this " mustn't tell-see it.
 Mrs. Wilson, played by Alice Mer ritt, and Judge Wilson, by Elliot Robertson, are small parts by wei carried out.
 great deal of credit is due Mis- Tishcr for the splendid musica program and the excellent rendl tion by the school orchestra. Sev
 eral of the violinists deserve com pliments for the grace with whicl they handle their bows. Credit also belongs to Miss Israe! for her choice of a vehicle and goo' taste in casting and excellent dl rection. Scenery by A. l. Whyte
 makeup by Harry Sperling an management by Henning Berggrol
 all deserve credit for the way Il which the performance was handled
 The play will be repeated agail tonight at 8:15 o'clock in the Elk Hall. and if one wants to laugh hi lariously, the comedy should be ol the amusement date book for to : night.
