BicycLes Come Back
In Buddy Rogers Film.

BICYCLES are rolling back into favor
with college students if one may judge
by an episode in RKO Radios modern
campus comedy set for the musical
comedy, "Old Man Rhythm" which
features Charles Buddy Rogers and
appears at the Opera House Sunday,
Monday and Tuesday.
There is no football game or college
rally in the story and the closet thing
to athletics is the moonlit bike" party
in which the pretty co-eds Betty
Cradle, Jane Hamilton and Evelyn
Poe have parts.
Appearing with Rogers are Barbara
Kent, Grace Bradley, George Barber,
Dave Chaser, Eric Blore, Erik Rhodes,
and Donald Meek. Edward Ludwig di-
rected the new filmuSical.
1t is not generally known but Rogers
is an expert on shorthand having
learned speed writing while a cub re-
porter for the Olathe, Kan, Mirror,
which was owned by his father. His
newspaper career came to an abrupt
end, however, when a friend of his
father gave Buddy screen test and
thus put him on the road to stardom.

Arriving at the northeast corner of
Fall Lake we may again be hauled by
motor launch to Winton or can continue
our padding efforts down six miles of
water that in many ways has lost its
attractivenesS.
We have seen such beautiful lakes,
with shore lines supporting large mon
archs of the forest, that when we ar
rive at Fall Lake and notice the logged
over and burned over condition of the
shore line, our thoughts turn back to
the beautiful scenery we have just
passed through in the past several days
and we wonder how long it will be be-
fore these lakes whose shore line have
been so despoiled will again be growing
a big stand Of white and Norway pine,
adding to the attraction and scenic
values of the shore line, as well as
again producing commodity and raw
product which is so urgently needed to
provide labor in the woods and a
natural resource for northeastern Min
nesota.
If we are fortunate enough to find
Fall Lake reasonably calm, we may
logically expect to arrive at Winton in
about two hours of steady padding
Arriving at Winton, which is deserted

Here we may also note some of the
large huskies used by this department
in hauling their toboggans and dog

months. Dogs are used almost entirely
in the winter to supply the interior
cabins and the wardens stationed back
in the interior.
