COLLEGE LOVE DRAMA DEPICTS
 MODERN YOUTH
The Age of Consent at Capitol Tomorrow Shows
 Love Under New Rules

A college love match is the basis of the drama in The Age of Con- sent" RKO-Radio pictufe which is coming to the Capitol Theatre tomorrow.
 Dorothy Wilson, a charming, new young star, who jumped from being a stenographer at the studio into the lead of the picture, plays Betty, who is engaged to Michael, taken by Richard Cromwell, when the picture begins. They are stu dents at a small Eastern co-edu- cational college and the gay, half promiscuous life of the campus disrupts their romance.
 Story Appeals to All
 The story is one that should ap- peal to all ages and persons be- cause of the universal character of it's theme, the eternal problem of youth trying to face life alone and a bit afraid, though conceal ing the fear under a cloak of bra zen sophistication.
 Dorothy Wilson gives charm ing, natural performance and Richard Cromwell handles the part of young manhood at the cross roads of life in superlative man. ner. The cast is excellently chos- en and is refreshingly young and unspoiled in appearance, and man. ner.
 ModerE Life
 The story shows the modern col lege life of today; there are no football games, no sweatered rom ances, it's illustrations, noble re- solves and nibblings at forbidden joys The story of Betty and Michael is one that is true of many moderns in college life today and the story of their affairs, their misunderstanding. the reconcilia- tions is extremely interesting.
 A bottle, some innocent necking and sudden outburst of emotion get the situation into a tangle. A serious automobile accident, an irate misunderstanding father, all are factors to make this picture that all should see.
 Laurez anc Hardy in one of their screamingly funny comedies, County Hospital' will be a per- feet addition to the splendid pro- gram.

POWERFUL POST. WAR ORA MA IS. SHO W N SUNDAY
Broken Lullaby with Splendid Cast, at Coli
 scum Tomorrow

Broken Lullaby Paramount's ire m n d o usly heart-stirring TO- nance of days after the war comes to the Coliseum Theatre tomor- row. It has a distinguished cast, an entirely new plot and is di- rected by Ernst Lubftsch.
 Broken Lullaby" is based on the original French play by Mau- rice Rostand. It tells of the post war events in the life of a former soldier in the wartime army The principal roles are played by Lionel Barrymore, Nancy Carrol and Phillips Holmes.
 Sensitive Soldier
 Holmes is seen as the soldier of France, sensitive, romantic minded who, in the performance Of his duty, kills young German soldier during a big enemy drive. As soon as the deed is committed, he begins to suffer a profound re- morse. From letter on the per- son of the victim he learns the name of the dead soldiers Ger man sweetheart, Nancy Carroll. and the name of the town in which she lives with the deaa mans fa- ther, Lionel Barrymore, stolid German Nationalist who harbors great hatred for ali Frenchmen
 After this brief wsr-scene pro- logue the picture is occupied with the events in the lives of these three after peace has been declar- ed. Holmes, driven by a sense of remorse and contrition, goes to Nancy's home town, to confess to her and the father that he was the man who killed the youth she loved. She intercepts this errand when she meets him at the grave of the deceased lover, and per- suades him to say nothing about the war to the stern father. Bar rymore meets Holmes, likes him, and soon forgets his old ai1imosity for the French. But the sensitive youth feels that it will be dishoA- orable to wed Nancy until he tells Barrymore the truth about this wartime deed. She tells him it will be best to say nothing about it and the remainder of the pic- ture is concerned with dramatice events which take place before the lovers smooth out their prob 1ems, @f
 Others in the excellent cast are Fully Marshal, zaSu Pitts, Lucien Littlefield, Tom Douglas. Emma Dunn and Frank Sheridan.

industrial self-government in the

1t makes no difference and most
certainly the whole thing is a
challenge to the thinking of both
sides and all of us. Very soon
the lessons of hard practice of

OUR VALLEY
Bv s. P. WERNER
| Y

The soil Of our valley has been
studied by experts Of the L. S.
department of agriculture, CLASH
fled and given special names ac-
,cording to the classification. It
is not necessary here 10 cnum-
crate these technical details,
meaningless to the average read
er; the main point is that there
arc at least eight distinct types
commonly recognized. Three of
these are clay-red, white or
greyish. and yellow; two loans
light and heavy sandy; and heavy
humus, black mack, and micace-
Gus silt. Of these the red clay
and the silt arc perhaps the most
valuable-thc one on the uplands,
the other in the bottoms.
A notable fact about these soils
is that frequently one may find
all of them in one small area.
The writer had a garden in which
every one of the eight types were
present. He planted sweet po-
tatoes and tomatoes in the red
clay; corn and cabbage in The
white clay; peas and beans in the
yellow; cucumbers, carrots, pars-
nips, and turnips in the light
loan. watermelons, onions, and
beets in the heavy loan, more
onions and potatoes and corn and
other vegetables in the humuS,
celery in the muck, and corn and
beans in the silt. The way in
which Dame Nature managed to
get all those varieties Of soil on
one acre is truly an amazing per-
Torrance.
This variety in the soil pro-
notes one important objective
it emphasizes the "live-at-homc"
possibilities of the valley. 1t has

United Press Staff Correspondent

HOLLYWOOD.-(UP). - The
return" of musical pictures is
nothing more than the American
public's recovery from a bad at
tack of musical indigestion" in
the belief of Herbert Fields, the
composer.
Fields. the son of Lew Fields,
famed partner Of Joe Weber,
came rightly by his heritage of
musical successes that helped him
turn ont such stage shows as
Fifty Million Frenchmen," "Hit
the Deck" and "Pardon My Eng
lish."
Talking about the return of
musical films would imply that
public interest travels in uncer-
tain cycles. and this is not So"
said Fields. looking up from his
work on "The Hollywood Revue
of 1888" at M-G-M.
"The only thing that happened
in pictures five years ago was that
producers were bit unfortunate.
Music in films was a new thing,
and they made too many musical
pictures-more than the public
could digest. The result was 'mu-
steal stomach ache
"That condition need never re-
cur. Producers realize now that
a picture program must be dlvld-
ed among numerous elements,
comedy, drama. westerns, melO-
dramas, musicals, and so on, and
that no one section should outbal-
ance the rest.
"There seems to be a current
intent to limit the number of mu-
steals to a certain percentage Of
the whole program. This is sound
logic, and if it's followed, there
should be no reason for musicals
ever again to go out of picture
programs"
Fields is working on his musical
with Howard Dietz, author OF
"The Band Wagon" "The Little
Show" and others. Joan Craw-
ford, Wally Berry, Jean Harlow
and others will perform in it.

a typical valley bottom field, one
often comes across a loose, shiny,
fine, soft, and almost greasy soil,
sometimes covering many acres.
Close inspection reveals particles
of finely divided mica scales
abundantly distributed through
the soil. 1t is noticeable that
the corn there is better than al
most anywhere else. 1t appears
that this soil is adapted to two
apparently opposite uses. 1t dries
quickly after a rain, and SO Ia
cilitatcs drainage; and 1t Is so
fine that it holds moisture under

mirablv adapts it for quick and
full termination of seed. The
writer once had trouble in get
ting a good stand of beets and
turnjps on clay soil. On tlSh-
ing trip he collected some OF the
silt and used it to cover his next
nIanting of those vcgetableS-and
Tho result was little short Of
marvellous. One of the most sue
ccssful and intelligent of the
Pennsylvania truck gardeners,
Mr.. Clarence Youngc. showed
the writer how he used the silt
as a base for compost in his
nropagating boxes in his green
houses, with the most gratifying
success. The writer uses it for
terminating tomatoes and finds 1T
better than the usual woods,
earth. This silt is truly a gift OF
GOOD mother nature to the pco-
pie of the valley. If it should be
conserved and used, it would, in
the course of ages, be worth
more than all the gold mines in
the state. 1t also seems to be
unique-the writer has not found
it in such quantity anywhere else,
or read of its occurrence. To
cover up that precious soil with
a fluctuating reservoir would be
an economic crime, if another
method of flood control could be
devised.

also contributes to the growing OF
truck for the summer camps ana
hotel trade. It also maintains a
balance against seasonal caprlces
If the sandy soil dries up under
too much dry weather, the red
clay holds the moisture, and vice
versa. Any man who can rent
his acre and can WELD a hoe and
starycs in the valley between
June and November deserves a
monument for laziness or stupid
ity.
An old friend of the writer, DR..
William Weston, executive head
of the commission on natural re-
sources Of South Carolina, and
one Of the originators and pro
moters Of the iodine campaign"
in that state told the writer that
he and his associates had about
concluded that the source of the
iodine in the vegetables there was
in the soil washed down from the
Blue Ridge. from the decomposl-
ton of the granite, feldspapthlc,
and schistosc rocks. If that IS
true, then our vegetables ought
to have as much Or more iodine
in them as those from beyond the
ridge, since our valley soil IS
practically all derived from the
Wcathering of our mountain
rocks.
The fertility of much of our
soil is no less pronounced than It's
variety. For generations 1t pro-
duced heavy crops without Ter
tilization. With the use OF COM
mercial and barnyard fertilizers
and lime, its productivity is still
very high. The writer knows

WASHINGTON, D. c., July IS.
The national recovery adminiStra-
ton is to operate publicly, as far
as that is humanity practicable.
That means something to the man
in the street of cities far from
Washington. 1t means duty, a
part in this administration, that
is up to him, and that seems to
me worth explaining.
Here we are holding hearings
on the first of the codes to be
submitted. which are to become a
body of industrial law for the
the different industries. It's all
being done in goldfish bowl.
Not because we are fond of being
gazed at, but so that the action
and method of code making and
administration can be seen from
far off.
We want it seen so plainly that
everybody everywhere can under
stand. and by studying can pick
out his home town part in recoy-
erv. There's no time write each
person a letter about 1t. But
neither is it time to jump IN,
head first.
Use your head. grst - we ask
every citizen; study sharply the
broad aims and detectives of this
recovery law, then the codes and
rulings as they develop in regard
TO your own business, and then
you will be picking out exactly the
wheel to put your shoulder to, for
the national push. Study first

They're no ballyhoo; they are the

This is a vastly bigger thing

1t is terrifically complicated,

The writer is facing splendid
crops of corn and cabbage on
those soils as he writes, and he
would never have believed they
would be possible from a super
fetal glance at the soil.
The good drainage everywhere
in the valley except in certain
areas in the bottoms is one OF
the advantages enjoyed by its
soil, while the alternate plan OF
development referred to would
facilitate complete drainage, on
the one hand, and irrigation, II
necessary, on the other.
