which show the famous outlaw
in different poses and scenes

Dick Tracy in

Last week, at the end Of the
first episode Of the exciting
serial, "Dick Tracy Returns" !"
the ace Oman, Tracy, was last
seen in a flaming airplane as it
plummeted toward the ground,
apparently carrying him to sure
death.
Fans are able to see whether
or not the redoubtable Tracy
was able to survive the crash
by going to Loew's Columbia
Theater, where Episode No. 2,
entitled THE Runway Of Death, !"
is now showing.
"Dick Tracy Returns" Is the
story of an arch criminal fam

Hold That COED" is the first

Since one great essential Of
this type of picture is that it
seems veritable factual docu-
ment, Racket Busters" was
cast with an eye mainly to the
CONTINGENCIES of its charac-
ters and the studio executives are
sure they did a swell job when
they put Humphrey Bogart,
George Brent, Gloria Dickson,
Allen jenkins and Walter Abel
in the leading roles.
While the city in which the
plot of Racket Busters" un-
folds is obviously New York. the
film treats of a condition which
is common to virtually every
large American city. And it is
not so much the story of what
any one man has done or can
do to eradicate the manifold
evils of racketeering as it is
the story of what an aroused
citizenry can do to put an end
to this civic cancer.
It depicts the ruthless meth
ods employed by sinister racket
eers, played by Bogart, to ex.
act tribute from the trucking
business Of a great city. It
tells of the efforts of a special
prosecutor played by Abel to
end the racket.
But, mainly it tells Of the
heroic fight against the mob
sters put up by a small number
of truckmen and how eventu-
ally this fight is successful
when Brent, first a leader in
the fight and then forced by
domestic troubles to make peace

recognize the petulant express
sion, but will find the petite
actress proving that she is Of
possibly greater interest in a
more serious role.
The fact that "Mayerling" is
remaining at the Little on a re-
turn run for the Capital should
be a sufficient recommendation
for those who have not seen it,
but it might be added that this
death-pact version of the
tragedy at Mayerling involving
the unhappy Crown Prince Ru-
dolph of the Hapsburgs and the
Baroness Vetsera, whom he was
forbidden to see again, is one Of
the most touching of film
dramas, that the performance
Of Charles Boyer opposite Mile.

the rocks Even their name means
''rock- jumpers"
These antelopes are only % inches
high. They have coat of very un-
usual thick hair that is more like
bristles, and these ere hollow. Only
the males have horns.
The range Of the klipspringer Is
from the Cape through eastern Africa
as far north as Abyssinia. Here in
Abyssinia these beautiful little crea-
lures are found as high up as 5000
feet above the sea.
They have beautiful uniform olive
color, with under parts that are buff
or silvery white. The small, straight
horns of the males are rarely over
four inches in length. They rise
straight up from the head, slightly
forward at the tips. The ears are so
large that they often hide the horns
and thus the males have been mis-
taken for their mates.
AS you can see, the legs are very
slender, and the hoofs, though rather
clumsy In appearance when COM
pared with the beautiful symmetry
of the animal, are so shaped and
small that the natives claim the ami
NAL can stand on a penny piece and
leap upon point no larger. 1t is
said there is no animal in the world
who has the power to make such long
leaps with so few fatalities. The very
small hoofs are SO constructed that

would be perilous point to another
creature less suitably equipped.

leap through space to gain.
With their reluctance to live any
where but in the hilly section of their
country, they are seen in only these
parts. At one time, these antelopes
were very numerous at the Cape. The
natives are very fond of the flesh
which they say is most tender and
well-flavored.
Because of being hunted so extern
sively. the klipspringer has had to
resort to more inaccessible spots to
live. Sometimes today a pair will be
seen together, and on rare occasions,
three Or four. There are numbers of
them left. but they have gone to far
