er to reach the screen, U~niversal's
eerie "Frankenstein" will make its
debut at the Iris theater, Sunday

Boles and Boris Karloff in the fea-
tured roles.

wear makeup weighing AS pounds
in itself. Colin Give, of Jour

pressly from London to enact the
scientist, and Dwight Frye, of
"Dracula" plays the important
Dwarf of the picture. Edward Van

probably would be more obliging
and less gruff.
He suggested particularly that
people stop calling policemen such
names as '~flatfeet," cops" and
"bulls." And it also would be a
great help. he said, if residents
would get acquainted with traffic
police and patrolmen, "just to help
