the Little's picture.
There Is force in this realistic ex-
pository area of Thunder Rock" i"
but 1t does not begin to compare
with that the photoplay takes on
when 1t enters the realm Of fantasy.
Artfully and with more sureness
than usually Is accomplished, the
camera takes you into the mind Of
the young author, q mind that Is on
the verge of madness with its sense
Of human futility.

It Is at this point that Robert
Ardrey's play, adapted by jeffrey
Dell and Bernard Miles with more
skill than the original author
showed, filings out its message that
there is no escape for the think
ing, creative human being.
There Is a resemblance to "Out-
ward Bound" in the dramatic situ-
alton in which six characters who
died in q Shipwreck near the light
house 90 years before come to life
again in the young mans conscious
ness. They take complete possession
Of his mentality and, in doing so
make him responsible for them
proving to him that there is no es-
cape, neither from the living MOI
the dead.
These are fascinating people the
writer evokes from the Swirling
waters around his solitary, tomb
like tower. They are q varied lot
and are brought to life with COM
plete plausibility by the imagina-
tive use of the camera in Thunder
Rock"
Most OF them were little people
but there Is q passion in them all
Most engrossing of the lot, perhaps
Is the character portrayed by Miss
Mullen. She was q lady of gentle

breeding and she fought for wom-
ems right. She was unjustly i'm
prisoned but she fought on sem
tence until her heart broke and she
died a spiritual death before the
material one overlook her on her
flight from further conflict.
Another equally dominant in the
story Is a surgeon who was crushed
morally and professionally when he
experimental with a new anesthetic
and his patients died. His loyal wife
and lovely, spirited daughter share
his defeat and his death and figure
intensely in his passionate claims
upon the mind of the cynical young
writer. The others in the fantastic
parade Of characters are q disspirit-
ed unskilled laborer and the philo-
sophie old captain of the Land O.
Lakes who went down with her and
with his passengers.

easily and logically outlast the same
at the same house. And which holds
the record for long-run, first-run
pictures in Washington. That is a
lavish expectation for any screen
play, but Thunder Rock" inspires
lavish kind Of confidence.
Thunder Rock" made in Eng
land, is that comparatively rare
phenomenon, a dramatic fantasy
that has something to say and holds
its audience spellbound while 1t is
saying it. It's power derives basically
from the story, but 1t Is no little
intensified by a series of excellent
performances. Those of Redgrave
and Miss Mullep are outstanding
but the producers Of Thunder
Rock" have been eleborately sue
cessful in finding the equally right
players for the lesser parts.
Thunder Rock" is the dramatic
account of q talented, greatly zeal
Gus writer whose anger with the
world reaches such q feverish pitch
that he undertakes to run away
from humanity. He finds mankind
stupid and brutal and his one con-
soling philosophic conclusion Is that
the war which broke in 1889 will be
its doom.
His ivory tower is a lighthouse
on the Great Lakes. To it he retreats
as keeper, taking with him no books,
no papers or periodicals, no writing
paper except the forms on which he
keeps Official records. The world and
mankind are rarely SO completely

as sled teams for evacuating wounded

Council Ends
Specialist Art
In KenneWiick

Our pioneers may be turning In
their graves with the knowledge
Of the changes being made in the
present era and the city council
Tuesday night added q n OF h er
chapter to our changing way OF
living.
This came with the final passage
of ordinance 428 which states In
its title that Il IL an Ordinance
for the protection Of the public
health, prescribing rules and regu-
lationS therefor, and providing
penalties for the violation thereof"
Going into detail the ordinance
declares all outside prtvies within
the city as q nuisance and gives
residents until the first Of June
to connect with the city sewers or
to construct septic tanks. This
length Of time was allowed be-
cause of the difficulty in securing
materials and labor.
Also passed was ordinance 432
which amends ordinance 427 re-
garding the operation Of taxi cabs.
The earlier ordinance had provid-
~ AVA VIC 4S4SAAA SAAsSAAS Va AAAo0A-
ance in the amount Of $1,000 and
SO, 900. However, the state re-
quires an amount Of 81, 900 and
S. 900 and insurance companies
seldom write taxi insurance for
more than that amount. The
amendment reduces the figure to
that amount.
The council heard q report from
Ralph Reed, chairman Of the
Board Of Directors Of the housing
authority, on the recent conven-
ton Of NAHO In Seattle. Mr.. Reed
stated that the authority plans to
continue the operation Of the
housing units where they are nee
essary until such q time % private
housing becomes adequate. Cities
are. TO be given greater authority
IN the management and have been
assured that they win get firyt
opportunity 10 take the units over
when the government decides to
dispose Of them. Board mamber
Paul Richmond and Director Z. G.
Smith also attended the cooven-
ton.
