WYNEKOOPCASE THEORY LINKED TO GREEK MYTH Oedipus Complex Angle Traceable to Poem by Euripides. BY TRISTRAM COFFIN Times Msff Writer Dr. Alice Wynekoop. that strange unemotional figure, has captured the morbid imagination of the nation more completely than did the eccentric ‘pig woman - ’ in the famous Halls-Mill trial. Trying to account for the grim murder which she is alleged to have committed, alienists have described her as gripped by the Oedipus complex, the victim of an over-developed love for her son. Earle. The Oedipus complex is as old as man. Animal mothers have fought fiercely with tooth and fang to protect their young. Mothers develop the protective urge as the baby suckles at the breast. The Greek dramatist. Euripides, wrote the stirring poetry’ of 'Oedipus, the King,” before the birth of Christ. Reared As Own Son The myth, according to John J. B. Morgan, eminent psychologist at Northwestern university, concerns a Greek king, Laius, who was warned that he was to die at the hands of his son. Mr. Morgan continues in liis book. “The Psychology of Abnormal People”: “When his wife, Jocasta. bore him a son. the child was given to a faithful herdsman to expose on Mount Cithaeron. Ignorant of the prophesy, the man. in pity, gave the child to the shepherd of Polybus, king of Corinth, and the ruler, who was childless, reared him as his son. ‘‘Oedipus, becoming suspicious of his origin, due to the taunts of some drunken comrades, sought the oracle of Delphi, who informed him that he was doomed to slay Ms father and wed his mother. Horrified, Oedipus fled from Corinth, and shortly afterwards met Laius with his servants. ‘ They tried to force him from the road, and in the fight which followed. he slew Laius, not knowing the identity of his victim. Going on to Thebes, he found this place harassed by a Sphinx, who propounded a riddle to every passerby and devoured all who failed to solve it. The hand of Jocasta was offered to any one who solved the riddle. Not Extreme Bond Now “Oedipus solved the riddle, slew the Sphinx and thereby won the hand of Jocasta, his mother. At I first he prospered and had fourj children. After a time a pestilence ! came to Thebes and the oracle de- ! dared that the murderer of Laius was the cause and should be expelled from the country. “Oedipus institutetd an inquiry which resulted in his learning the truth. Jocasta hanged herself, and Oedipus put out his eyes.” However, the Oedipus complex as it is known today is not such an extreme bond between mother and , son as it was in the Greek myth. It is, according to psychological definition. a love so intense between mother and son that it excludes any other love. It follows logically, if the Oedipus complex really exists in the case, that Earle Wynekoop never could have loved his wife with any tender affection. Alienists’ Views Differ. Some * alienists have contended that instead of a Oedipus complex being a factor, the entire family is held together by a matriarch complex. When a mother so dominates the mental and social life of her family, they say. it is known as the matriarch complex. Family loyalty, the good of the clan, is the paramount issue in life. Probing deep into this fascinating mental study of a shocking crime, psychologists have pointed out that Earle Wynekoop is a probable example of “narcissism." and 'Exaggerated self-love. Frequently intellectual persons, alienists declare, have a highly developed ego. Earle repeatedly has referred to himself as of "superior metality.” The psychoanalysts, following the Freudian school of thought, interpret his numerous love affairs as an expression of the ego—the superior conquest of woman by man.

‘Little Women’ One of Greatest Movies Ever Produced, Says Walter Hickman

Joan Bennett

‘lt’s Sweetest and Loveliest Story of Home Life Which Ever Reached Screen,’ He Says. BV WALTER D. HICKMAN The year 1868 placed the crown of literary immortality upon Louisa M. Alcott for the w’riting of “Little Women." The year 1933 places the crown of acting immortality upon Katharine Hepburn because she has created the role of Miss Alcott's “Jo” in the movies' ever-living “gallery of fame.” “Little Women” is the sweetest and loveliest movie of American home life which ever has reached the screen.

Into the movie “hall of fame” move Miss Hepburn as “Jo,” Joan Bennett as "Amy,” Frances Dee as “Meg,” and Jean Parker as “Beth.” If perfect casting ever existed, it docs in the way George Cukor has assembled and directed the many players in this lovely story of four sisters under one roof. Mirrored with Telling Effect The virtues of American home life in Miss Alcott’s day have been mirrored by the director with such telling effect that the photoplay becomes a guide of morals, customs, and home life of the period. “Little Women” has not gone Hollywood, but remains the period classic which it was on the day of its publication. As the story starts to unfold on the talking screen, the snow-covered yard of the New England home of the Marches becomes an old-fashioned playground as the tom-boy Jo makes a huge snowman as she looks longingly at the window in a rich man’s house next door for the face of a boy to appear. The first big scene in the March home opens on the afternoon before Christmas as the four sisters, all widely different in temperament, await the return of their mother for tea. Old-Fashioned Fun Jo, Amy, Meg and Beth are in the old-fashioned living room of their home. Even in those days, girls complained of being poor and not having enough money for fine clothes. But the girls remember that their father is a chaplain in the army during the Civil v 7 ar. which was then going on. Into this beautiful scene arrives Marmee, the mother, played in a great human way by Spring Byington, well remembered here for her many fine characterizations with the Stuart Walker Company at the Murat. An unforgetable scene of domes-

Dickey, as trustee of Pipecreek township Madison county. Thomas F. Moore, who has been contesting Mrs. Dickey in an effort to obtain the office, will work with her as poor relief investigator. They made the arrangement in a compromise. Controversy arose after Mr. Moore had been appointed trustee bv Albert Hupp. Madison county auditor, and the commissioners appointed Mrs. Dickey. Suit was filed here by Mr. Moore in an effort to prevent Mrs. Moore from serving as trustee. The case was tried on a change of venue at Tipton where a jury disagreed.

tic loveliness is revealed when Marmee reads a letter to her daughters from their father, asking them to be good girls and grow up to become little women that he and their mother would be well proud of. Beautiful Characterization Amy, Beth, Jo and Meg do that—become little women of whom the entire world was proud. You will relish the direct and positive characterization of Miss Hepburn as Jo, w’ho loved to write books and plays and who was in love w’ith love. Watch this actress become the top-ranking emotional actress of the screen as she awaits the angel of death . . . the angel of death which takes Beth away from the ones she loved so much. Cast Is Splendid At this point comes some of the finest emotional acting that the screen ever has reflected, Jo is a girl of many contrasting moods and Miss Hepburn mirrors every one of them as only the first actress of the screen could do. Watch the way Joan Bennett becomes little Amy with girls.. Here is a marvelous transformation. Miss Bennett is another big surprise among the many big surprises in "Little Women.” The cast follows: J .° Katharine Hepburn Fritz Bhaer Paul Lukas SKI Frances Dee Aunt March Edna May Oliver Laurie Douglass Montgomery Mr. Laurence Henry Stephenson Mamtee Spring Byington ,Ir.

In nineteen years of reviewing plays and movies, “Little Women,” as produced by RKO-Radio. is the best photoplay I ever have seen.
