AS a matter of completely un-

never in manner that earns
sympathy for either of the

This palpably is not for lack
of trying on the part of the

lgards as the vital detail Of the
picture.
They are collectively handi-
capped, however, by the fact
that the basic theme of 1.-THE
Proud and Profane" is over
worked and that there is little
of surprise in one more tie game
between beauty and the beast.
AS in the case of the principal
roles. the stereotype minor
characters are well cast in THE
Proud and Profane." Among
the latter, Thelma Ritter is
pleasantly workmanlike as a
dryly humorous Red Cross club
director, Dewey Martin as a for
mer juvenile delinquent turned
into an idealistic Marine, and
William Redfleld as a chaplain
whose hands are overfull of the
problems of war.

Canada's National Ballet, one

returns to Carter Barron Am

Highlight of the opening pro-

whose original title was 1.-THE

clearly lost in the transcription
is the magnificence to which
Miss Crockett refers. Without
this quality, an actor of even
Holden's appeal is hard to make
his type in the picture attractive.

setting as beguiling as that of

senting the south Pacific battle

War II.
Mr.. Seaton who combines
one Of Hollywood's surest writer
director talents gives the i'm
preston here of a man who
doesn't quite believe Miss Crock
ett's narrative material.
What she wrote, from her
woman's viewpoint, is the ac-
count of a well-bred Red Cross
girl who meets and falls in love
with a hard-boiled, half breed
Marine colonel. What Mr.. Sea-
ton gets out of this relationship,
from his mans viewpoint, is a
hollow, prefabricated SCREEN
script which suggests the heroine
is not very bright and the Ma
rine officer more of a. say, scoun-
drel, than is good for movie pur-
poses.

BY WAYNE MILLER
TCHS Student

Otto Won Guericke was born
In 1902 and died in 1886. He was
wy interested in Science at an
early age. At the age of twelve,
he was the most brilliant stu
dent in his class. Science was a
mystery to him md he was al
ways trying to find out more
about it. His family was poor,
but he still got a good education
by studying very hard at all
times. He also had to work to
e2rn money for the family.
After he grew up and become
a man, he continued his study of
science and wa elected mayor
o. Madgeburg, Germany, during
the seventeenth century. He
continued to make experiments
and to find out new things. His
outstanding statement was that
Science cannot be studied by
agguement, but that the truth
must be found by experiment.

Farmers To

BY VICTOR ii. LYTTON
Assist. County Agent

Last year l8 percent of the
farms in Columbus County did
not gro wany vegetables. That
means that Is percent did not
have even head of collards or
ia row of snap beans. A lot of
the other 80 percent grow some
vegetables but not an adequate
supply for fresh use as well as
for canning or freezing. A good
home garden for an average
family of five is valued at S44l.-
so. Many people in that l8 per-
cent may not be spending their
.proportiOnatc share for vcgc-
tables but then they are not cat
ing an adequate diet either.
Each year some gardeners are
disappointed because of poor
growth and poor yields which
are due to improper soil condi-

ABOVE-STREET CARS PROPOSED FOR LA. PEDESTRIANS

LOS ANGELES, tR-A series Of conveyor belts carrying six-pass- enger cars some Is feet above the street level is proposed as a solu- tion to this city's transportation problem in congested downtown areas.
 The system (Carveyor) was de scribed by architect Samuel Lun- den to the Citizens Traffic and Transportation Committee.
 A moving belt would carry cars at 15 miles an hour between sta tions and would slow to l12 miles an hour at each station, where passengers could alight on side walk moving at the same speed.
 Cars would leave a station ev- cry three seconds, moving as many as 14,000 persons an hour, Lunden said.

Inter-American Conference Opens With Fl Nations

CIUDAD TRUJILLO, Dominl- can Republic, R-Can a nations territorial waters extend 200 miles out to sea?
 That is one of the key issues to be argued at the InterAmerican Conference on Conservation of Natural Resources and Marine Waters, which opened here yes terday.
 Delegates from the 21 American republics are on hand for the meeting. There are also research experts, geological survey special ists and fisheries officials.
 First arrivals said they consid- cred the conference one of the most important held in the field in recent years.
 The US. delegation is headed by Henry Holland, assistant sec retary of state for Latin-Ameri- can affairs. The attendance of such a high-ranking official is an indication of the importance the US. government attaches to the meeting.
 The extent of territorial waters has become an important issue since Chile, Peru and Ecuador jointly agreed their sovereignty extended 200 miles out to sea.
 Costa Rica and Honduras since have subscribed to the same view.
 Others of the 21 republics set only a three-mile limit. Some claim the waters 12 miles out, or to the edge of the continental shelf
 Fishing interests in the US. and Europe have been outspoken' opo- nents of extended sovereignty.
 Last year several foreign fish ing fleets were seized off the Pa cific coast of South America. Their catches were confiscated and their owners fined for fishing within the 200-mile limit.
 The United Nations has been studying the question of territor- ial waters for several years.

2,OOO Years Since Caesars Death Not Marked in Rome.

ROME, Rl-Great Julius Caesar received another unkind cut yes terday-the city of Rome refused to celebrate this Ides of March as the 2,OO0th anniversary of his death.
 Some scholars argue this is only the 1,999th anniversary of the day on which Brutus and the conspir- ators plunged their daggers into Caesar at the foot of Pompey's statue.
 An official at Rome's city hall conceded "this is the bilmillen- ary" but said the city isn't cele- brating.
 "We celebrate the deaths of saints, not of pagans," he ex- plained
 However, a green wreath did decorate the brow of bronze statue of the old emperor which gazes across Rome's broad Via Dei Fori Imperiali Street of the Inn perial Forum) At its feet was a bouquet of red and white carna- tions.
 Behind Caesars statue, ruins of a forum, erected to his honor long ago, were empty. It was too cold for sightseers.
