with Small Town Girl"
MONS brilliant production OF
Ben Ames Williams hit yarn, you
will find q new and even greater
Janet Gaynor-a Janet with all
her whimsical traits coupled with
. moderniZation Of style and Q
certain rare bit Of comic SophiSti-
cation.
Personally, I wish Small Town
Girl" had been made Immediately
following Seventh. Heaven" It
Is that fine and that superlativs
in entertainment value.
I have always enjoyed William
Wellman's rather virile and no
bust directorial manner. But with
this film he offers o pleasant sur
priSe-a softnesS that Is charming
and q flare for natural comedy
that Is noteworthy. A definite
slap on the back to Billy for q
task he obviously tackled with
enthusiasm and q job well done.
Mr.. williams story is not the
usual small town girl makes
good" yarn, but rather o well-told
angle on the village gal marries
rich city Slicker" plot. At least,
the scenaristS have done an ex.
eellent job in unfolding the theme
for the screen.
Because the village belle was
tired Of doing the same thing
every day, she ups and marrieS a
promising young doctor who had
celebrated q football game too
strongly and didn't know what he
was doing. Morning brought Q
slight headache and the realiZar
ton but the little heroine, for
the sake Of his medical reputa-
ton, decides to stick 1t out for
six months and then agree to an
annulment. But I'm telling you
too much Of the plot
Don't miss seeing o new, greater
Janet Gaynor swept off Of her
romantic feet by dashing Robert
Taylor, who, incidentally, gives q
grand account Of himself in the
acting line. Then there is Andy
Devine doing exceptionally well
with q small character role: Binnie
Barnes IS q seductive villainess:
James Stewart, Charles Grapewin,
Lewis Stone and Willie Fung shine
brightly in supporting roles, while
Edgar Kennedy Is seen much too
briefly IS q yacht captain. Isabel
Jewell, Nella Walker, Elizabeth
Patterson, Douglas Fowley, Frank
Craven and others complete the
cast.
A special bow TO Producer Hunt
Stromberg for the criSpnesS, the
pleaSantly!laviSh and general pro
duction quality.
And to Janet >Gaynor for Q bril-
liant performance!

Rules officials have decided that
only colleges which do not play
freshmen on their teams will be
eligible to compete in college elimi-
nations. Schools using freshmen
must enter Y. NJ C. A. or A. A. U.
divisions of competition if they care
to participate in the Olympic try
outs.
The provision limits the Indiana
collegiate field to eight teams. They
are Purdue, Indiana, Notre Dame,
Butler, Wabash, De Paw, Ball State
and Indiana State.
New Plan Suggested
1t was planned originally to have
the ruling committee in each of the
10 districts select eight outstanding
teams to compete in a tourney for
the district championship District 5
includes Indiana, Illinois, Michigan
and Ohio.
However, it is now planned to
throw out "feelers" to all eligible
colleges to discover how many de-
sire to compete. Then. if most In
diana colleges wish to go after the
Olympic honor, they will meet in a
subdivision" tourney, with the
winner and runner-up to meet sur
vivors Of similar events in the three
other states of the district.
Play Here Before March "a
Postal cards asking for reactions
to the plan have been sent to the
state college directors by William
F. Fox Jr., indianapolis, chairman
of the District committee.
The District tourney, in which
eight college teams are to compete,
has been assigned to the local
Butler Ffeldnouse, and must be
played off some time before March
"a, since the inter- district meets are
set for March %. Finals will be held
in New York on April 3, 4, and 6.
Inter district Journeys are to be
played between winners of the 10
district sessions to determine the
five college representatives in the
New York finals. Two A. A. U.
quintets and the national Y. M. C. A.
champion will complete the field for
the finals.
Since Indianapolis is to have
divisional meet, it is likely that .
diana University in Bloomington.
will be host to the planned sub
division tourney. Assignments of
