new PRODIGY
HELD SMARTER
THAN EINSTEIN
Boy, 7, Whose Quotient Is
1856, Put in Shade by
Latest Find.
By United Press

~ Cnitcd Press
NEW YORK, Dec. 4-"What do
you mean, child almost as smart
as Professor Albert Einstein?" the
Bureau Of Child Guidance in effect
demanded of the Educational Clinic
this afternoon. Why, we have a
child who is smarter"
The bureau then announced exist
ence Of IL -year-old boy, who has
an intelligence quotient of 230,
which makes him the smartest per-
son in all the world. Professor Elm
STEMS intelligence quotient is 205.
one OF the highest ever recorded
heretofore, and the quotient of the
Educational Clinics prodigy, who is
z, is only 1876.
The new prodigy is a pupil at the
Brooklyn Ethical Culture School,
and his teacher, Mrs. Henry Neu-
mann, was disturbed because news
papers had made much over the
clinics prodigy. She refused to di-
Vulge his name. fearing publicity
might hurt his future.
Likes Music, Mathematics
The child's mind, like that of
Professor Einstein, seems predispoSed
toward music and mathematics, she
said. He has devised a numerical
alphabet with which he writes with
ease and has invented a system of
musical notation using numbers that
competent music technicians have
pronounced entirely practical.
The Bureau of Child Guidance is
a part of the Board of Education
A few months ago. Brooklyn sec
ond grade teacher grew weary of a
little boy who knew all the answers
before she expounded them, and
sent him to the bureau.
DR.. Morris Krugman gave him the
10" test and before he had finished
the child had comprehended the in
volved method by which his test ar
rives Tin theory at an appraisal of
intelligence. Astonished, DR.. Krug-
man began propounding mathemat-
ical theorems which the child solved
with ease.
Parents Are Inte!lectuals
The new prodigy, like the 7-year-
old mental giant of the Education
al Clinic, is of Jewish parentage,
but his parents, rather than having
little education, are classed as pro
feSSional intellectuals."
He did not walk until IA months
old, and did not talk until 20
months. But when he did begin
talking, it was in complete sem
fences without trace of garbled pro-
nunciation.
His physical and social age is
only a little more advanced than
his chronological age and he there
fore enjoys the company of other
young children. He is taught in a
class of other exceptionally bright
children, although none approach
his 10" rating. No effort is made to
push him. He is large for his age
and has a strong, sound body.

Inc most amazing mo1cStlon on OuE
change Of tempo was shown when
John Gilbert and his wife. Virginia
Bruce, announced their impending
divorce on the heels Of . great farrago
Of publicity about the old Gilbert
Garbo reunion on the screen. Did
the gossips de luxe Of Hollywood VII
lage spring into action with rumors
that Gilbert,s revived affection for
oreta precipitated the matrimonial
schisn?
They did not. They yavned,
shrugged at the idea Of John Gilbert
being unhappy with his third wife,
recorded the facts as nearly ~ pos
sible and went back to their pinochle
games with WY smile.
True, La Carlo was playing the
game known as fascination, with .
somewhat more public deal than she
gives her romances as . general rule,
with handsome Director Reuben Ma
moulian. Even this episode did not
bring all Hollywood to the 0arbo
hide-out with hungry ears. Most Of
the cinemaites were perfectly willing
to wait and see what the enismattc
Greta would do about her director ad-
mirer. When the two were rumored
as visiting one Of the matrimonial
hjde-outs there were pictures and
r1mcrs in the casual manner. but no
fireworks as Of gore.
The New York tabloids went berserk
about Katharine Hepburn after dis
covering that this lady was living un-

least, 80 they alleged-and they ran
photographs Of friend husbands mod

forties and more photographs Of La
Hepburn's imposing home also In the
East forties s-just around the corner,
to be exact. They ran stolen snap
shots of the two, made with candid
cameras by concealed camera crafters.
They made . big hullabaloo over the
private life Of the newest 1ilm rage,
In Manhattan.
And what Of Hollywood? Did they
seize avidly on the fact that Hepburn

thing which have been neglected 10

This ID the compliment paid to the
star by no less . parsonage than Mrs.
Patrick Campbell. distinguished Brit
ish theater star. who. IN her own
right, has achieved international fame
In the creation Of many outstanding
characterizations.
Mrs. Campbell, perhaps best known
for her sreat triumph In 'The Sec
ond Mrs. Tanqueray," the first 'be-
smirched heroine" role the theater
ever witnessed, and her portrayal Of
George Bernard Shaw's famous works.

MIN.
TO my way Of thinking" declares
Mrs. Campbell. Miss Shearer Is e.
great mistress Of the screen art as
the others were Of the theater- And
make no mistake about It, the screen
b . very dimcult taskmaster."
Had she 30 chosen, Mrs. Campbell
believes, Miss Shearer might have
made as great . mark on the stage
as she has In hlmS.
"Of course" she says. "the two
mediums are vastly different. It Is
. pity to me that Miss Shearer chose
to give herself to the screen rather
than the theater. ] must be frank
In saying consider the theater the
greatest institution Of artistic express
don Of the modern world. But I
am sure she would quickly master
sage technique. With her rapier in
telligence, capacity for assimilation
Of new ideas and natural gift, Miss
Shearer should win great success In
the theater.
'.Besade her vibrant talent, Miss
Shearer has, too, breathless beauty
and an unaffected charm that rings
true. Her personality has perfume
that would carry across the footlights
and delight theater audiences and give
her their sympathy, without which no
stage actress can hope to succeed"
