MARX WE'LL PLACED

1t is especially fortunate, not only
because of the character of the
times, but more especially because
of the fitness of the man that Adjt
Gen. Emil F. Marx should become
by law, the head of the Ohio Nation
al Guard for the rest of his life
The Ohio law was passed to make
the Guard status and condition COM
ply with those of the national de-
fense act and Marx was in exactly
the right position when the law took
effect.
From the moment of his enlist
ment in Co. K, ST. Marys, AuglaiZe
county, back in 1915, his efficiency
and capability have been noteworthy.
After Mexican border service he was
ready, when the World war broke
out, to go overseas as an infantry
lieutenant in the thirty-seventh di
vision. His service in that strife
was in line with his Guard career
and deserved promotions came in
due course.
Recently there have been two ex-
amples of his knowledge, capability
and dependability. The first was in
the January food, when he direct
ed the huge task of relief along the
Ohio river. The second was when
he, as what may be termed Ohio's
secretary Of war, brought peace in
the strike-troubled steel area of
northeastern Ohio.
Under the old law it was possible
to reward political friends and dis
cipline political enemies through ap-
to the position which
Gen. Marx holds and which he will
now hold for life. The fact is, GER
tainly, that a soldiers political
alignment should have nothing
whatever to do with his appoint
ment to high command. And if the
political fortunes should change,
this high-grade and efficient soldier
will remain in his position, without
'ear of interruption by a new adj
The new law is good:
the original appointment by Mr..
Davey was wise; the state and the
Guard which is it's military arm of
defense are fortunate in having En-
Il Marx right where he is and where
ne will remain.-Ohio State Jour

North responded to South's third
hand club bid with 4 diamond. Mr..
Bale put in Z one-spade overcall,
and scuth's one no trump was followed
by two passes. At this point Mr..
Balfe reasoned that North was evi-
IDENTIFY weak. Thus, If he doubled,
the opponents would probably be
set, and the worst that could happen
would b that one no trump doubled
would be made. Mr.. Ralfe's partner,
having fair hand, was quite content
to leave in the double, and opened
small spade.
Declarer, gloomily surveying the
dummy. decided to attempt to estab-
lish his club suit. A small club was
ducked In dummy, Mr.. Balfe winning
with the queen and returning q spade.
Declarer ducked once, then won with
the ace and played the ace and
another club. As West cashed his
two club tricks, Mr. Bale discarded
two low hearts and, feeling that this
was . request for . diamond lead,
West led the ten.
Completely woe-begone, declarer
won the trick with the ace Of dia-
monds, whereupon Mr.. Balfe spread
his hand, claiming the balance. Op-
portunities to double q one-no-tr,lmp

might Must Fall" starring
Robert Montgomery, and Rosa
lind Russell, returns to the Col
urnbia Friday for a repeat en-
gagement.
Directed by Richard Thorpe,
this story presents an entirely
new technique for crime fiction
on the screen. without the ele.
ment of mystery, the story intro
duces a pathological killer whose
mission is known to the audience
before he starts to act.
Montgomery chose deliberately
to step from heroic roles to this
peculiarly difficult characterize
ton. He saw the London stage
play and urged Metro-GoldWyn-
Mayer to buy it so he might play
the killer role.
The supporting cast includes
some members of the original Lon
don cast who appeared during the
run of Sc consecutive weeks. Dame
May Witty. Merle Tottenham,
Matthew Boulton and Kathleen
Harrison.

sents its problem to the audience
in it's initial sequence and from
then on to the last scene one thrill
follows another. The drama is
lightened with liberal comedy and
an amazing romance between
Montgomery and Miss Russell.

"Coptoins Courageous"
Coming to Palace

,ducerS, with characteristic vigor,
have omitted no detail that would
bring into visual and audible
play the genius of the master
writer
Freddie Bartholomew, as the
boy who is swept from the deck
of a liner to be rescued by a crew
of Gloucester fishing men, per-
forms his first American role and
it is described as surprising any
thing that he has ever done on
the screen.
Spencer Tracy scars higher into
the star armament in the role of
the Portuguese fisherman for
whom Freddie acquires an affec-
ton that is greater than his love
for his own father. And Lionel
Barrymore rounds out a great star
ring triumvirate with his robust
characterization of the pictur-
esque skipper.
Others contribute distinguished
portrayals in this magnificent tri-
umph, said by all who have seen
it to be one of the finest pictures
that this or any other year has
created.

Studio Insures
Film Stors

Insurance policies for $3.50, 900
each were recently taken out by
Warner Bros. studios on the lives
of Pat O'Brien and Henry Fonda,
stars of Slim" the movie dealing
with high-tension wire workers,
which will open Friday at the
Earle Theater. Separate clauses
also provide for large benefits in
case of accident.
While the studio naturally took
every possible precaution to pro-
tect the two players, their work in
slim" involved considerable
danger.
A series of towers ranging from
IS to 100 feet in height were built
for the production and O'Brien
and Fonda were required to do
much work high above the ground,
along with professional experts
hired by the studio.
"Slim," featuring also Margaret
Lindsay and Stuart Erwin, was
directed by Ray Enright.
