STRATOSPHERE BALLOON LANDS AFTER 13 HOURS Two Belgian Scientists Are Exhausted by Cold, Bad Air. My Cnitrtf Press ZINOLJE. Yugoslavia, Am?. 20. Max Cosyns and Neree Vanderelst, Belgian stratosphere balloonists, made ready to return home today with information about cosmic rays which they believe will be of inestimable aid to science. The balloon in which they flew from Hour-Havenne, Belgium, to this isolated village in a thirteenhour drift across France, Luxembourg, the Saar. Germany and Austria, was waiting at the MurskaSubbota railway station, to which it was transported. Charles Szmodia. of Perth Amboy, N. J.. medical student at Budapest, who is vactionmg here, was a witness to the descent in a cornfield Saturday night, while people all over Europe were watching for it in fear that the fliers had met disasters. American Aids Landing Zionovlje is three and one-half mile* from the nearest real village, and there is not even a road through it. Residents saw their first balloon Saturday night and many of them saw their first motor car yesterday when sightseers began arriving. “I was walking Saturday night,” Szmodia told the United Press, •'when I saw a silver ball in the sky. I thought it was a near star speeding toward the earth. As it neared the ground I saw flashlight and handkerchief signals. Then the balloons landing rope was thrown down, and signals indicated that I was to catch hold. “I helped to land the balloon. Vanderellst was first to leave the gondola. He was exhausted from bad air and cold. We laid him on the ground half conscious. He recovered only when the peasants gave him hot tea and bathed his face and hands. Cosyns also was exhausted, but recovered rapidly.” Reach 52,480 Feet "W; suffered greatly from cold.” Vanderelst said. "At our highest altitude. 16.000 meters <9.936 miles or 52,430 feet, far below the record) it was freezing inside the gondola and far below zero outside. The lack of movement stiffened our limbs and we had the greatest difficulty in working our instruments. We had no idea where we were. I was tired and had some fever, but I'm all right now.” "We did not establish an altitude record, but we did succeed in reaching a hight which gave us important data.” Cosyns said. The instruments were not damaged in landing. RECOVERY BUILDING TO BE FEATURE AT FAIR Federal Relief• Activities Will Be Demonstrated. The ‘’lnside story” on the newfederal housing administration, how it operates and what the layman can do to benefit from It, will be a feature of one of the exhibits in the new Recovery building at the Indiana state fair. Sept. 1 to 7, Fred Hoke, state housing director and Recovery building committee chairman. announced today. “Since this is the newest of the federal recovery agencies, we feel that this will be a splendid opportunity for us to acquaint the public with us services.” he said. In addition to a graphic pro. mentation of how. when, where and whom it senes, tiiere will be an attendant at the exhibit at all times to answer anv questions visitors may have. Mr Hoke explained.

‘Treasure Island’ Ranks Among Best of Products From Land of Hollywood

LONG John Silver, Jim Hawkins Ben Gunn, Dr. Livesev and many other characters In Robert Louis Stevenson s classic, “Treasure Lsland,” never will die. Thanks for that goes to the movie screen, a great director, a marvelous cast, and a million dollars. It is easy to see how "Treasure Island” cost its producers a cool million.

Brains, money, and intelligence were not spared and the result is that “Treasure Island” is a compliment to the industry. It will rank high and will be remembered for years. This story immortalizes Wal lace Beery as Long John Silver, the murderous pirate, and Jackie Cooper as Jim Hawkins. It is inter-

J ;rr^

Beery

esting to note that although Beery’s Silver is a murderer, he goes after such bloody business with a twinkle in his eye and a smile on his face. Beery makes Long John more of a comedian and even more lovable at times than the character Stevenson conceived. It gives Beery a chance to become a real pal to Jackie Cooper. When Jeckie sees good in the blustering old pirate, the audience feels that the lad is justified in making a make-believe character out of the old rascal. It gives Jackie a good acting opportunity when he discovers that Long John Is a traitor and a murderer. The ending of the story is one that I will remember for a long

time. Shows both Beery and Jackie are fine emotional actors. Otto Kruger is the right choice for Dr. Livesey and the same may be said for Lewis Stone as Captain Smollett. Charles <Chic) Sale is immense as Ben Gunn who always longs for cheese on the island of the buried treasure. I think that too much footage was given to Lionel Barrymore s Billy Bones, although he certainly puts the story in tne right mood at the very beginning of the story. Some of the shots, especially the scene of the ship on water, are works of art. This is a grand picture for every man, woman and child in the world. Now at Loew s Palace. b a a Walker Directs Again STUART WALKER'S first directed picture for Universal is "Romance in the Rain,” a comedy with lots of love making and a song or two. The story is light and fluffy and its theme is as old as the hills. It is another story of a girl being chosen as a modern Cinderella and made a somebody by a clever press agent for a-love tale magazine. The real star of the comedy is Victor Moore, who is a master at creating weak-kneeded and weakminded sap characters. He is the publisher of the love tale magazine. When Walker s direction slows down a bit, it is Moore who swings it into high again. This in no way detracts from the pleasing work of Heather Angel as the modern Cinderella and Roger Pryor as the high-powered press agent. It is good to see Esther Ralston again and she has a smart-cracking

SOLDIER OF FORTUNE WINS: DR. DAFOE’S SIGNATURE IS PROOF

By ticrippg-Hotcnrd Setcgpuper Allinure CALLANDER, Ontario, Aug. 20. —“Jimmy” Howe, Alaskan soldier of fortune, traded a tooth for an autograph and headed for home today, happy, even if he hadn't seen the Dionne quintuplets, with the signature of their physician. Dr. A. R. Dafoe. “We've heard all about the babies up home, and my friends wired me to be sure and see them,” he said. Refused permission to enter their nursery, he viewed the home and “met the family.” Dr. Dafoe modestly refused Jimmy’s request for an autograph. Jim was crestfallen. Up in Alaska they like to have backing for the tall tales of their globe-trotters. "Doctor,” said Jim. “ I have an old molar that's been bothering me for some time. How about yanking it?” It was yanked. The doctor was pocketing his $1 fee when Jim demanded: "How about a receipt, Doc?” He got it.

to elicit many a quiet smile in appreciation of the realism with which the household of George Brent and Ann Dvorak is brought to the screen. Seldom has a representation of the trials of householders, ranging from washing machine payments, leaky faucets and stupid but willing servants, been produced with as much finesse. The story—if you’ve heard it try and stop me—has to do with a young married couple, Mr. Brent and Miss Dvorak, and their young son living happily, though not brilliantly, on his salary as an advertising office manager. But the wife has ambition and Brent opens an agency of his own. Success immediate. Enter the other woman. This time it’s Bette Davis, a former schoolgirl sweetheart of Brent, who has made a name for herself as an advertising copywriter, and who has loads of what men call “glamour.” The marital harmony of the Brent union is threatened, of course, with Miss Dvorak refusing to agree to divorce proceedings. But Brent is determined, flinging himself out of their house. His flight is temporarily delayed, for he accidentally runs- over his son with his motor car. Pride rises in Ann and she sues for divorce. But when the case reaches court, neither has the heart to go through with it. The union survives. And the old, old story has been told again. Miss Dvorak is quite acceptable as the devoted and understanding wife. It is probably her best performance. Mr. Brent walks through his role with assurance. Miss Davis’s characterization is disconcerting. In “Os Human Bondage” she did not point up every line with a nervous twitching of her shoulders and dropping of her head. This mannerism goes unrestrained in “Housewife.” The result is certain to be confusing to those who saw her magnificent performance in the Somerset Maugham piece.—(By the Observer.) tt tt tt WILL ROGERS’ "Handy Andy” is in its fourth and final week at the Apollo. Enough said.

Indiana in Brief

By 7 i met .Special MUNCIE. Aug. 20.—Fred Rowlett, furniture dealer, isn't too optimistic. but he's hoping very hard that the violin sold him recently by a stranger is. as the seller indicated, a genuine Stradivarius. The instrument at least has all the "earmarks.” Glued onthe inner side of the violin and visible through the sound holes is a strip of paper, or possibly tape, on which appears the legend: “Antonius Stradivarious, Cremonentis—Faciebat. 1723.” Translated this means. Antonius Stradivarious, Cremona—made in 1723. Musicians who have viewed the violin tell him it is genuine. Mr. Rowlett says. Mr. Rowlett was in his store one day recently when a stranger entered and opening an old sack brought forth the "Stradivarius." He bought it, but so excited was he that he forgot to obtain the stranger's name. The seller told him taht he had retrieved the instrument from an attic where he knew it had been stored for more than 100 years, having been brought to this country by his grandfather. Mr. Rowlett did not reveal the purchase price, but said he had purchased it for a fraction of its true worth if genuine.

a a a Stadium Ceremony Set By Times Special CLINTON, Aug. 20.—The American Legion fife and drum corps has been holding a series of rehearsals preparatory to leaving Thursday for Brazil, where they will participate in ceremonies incident to dedication of anew stadium. tt tt tt Insult Added to Injury By Time Special HAMMOND. Aug. 20.—Being run over twice within the space of a few seconds, with ones own car, was the dubious distinction claimed today by Arthur Mulhall, 36, of this city. Mr. Mulhall, after working on the car in his back yard, cranked it while it was in gear with the wheels turned. The vehicle started up and bowled him over, made a circuit of the yard and before he could get out of the car’s path, knocked him down again. His wife finally ended matters by jumping on the running board and cutting off the switch. Mr. Mulhall was taken to the hospital with several fractured ribs and bruised ankle. tt tt tt Tax Rate Slashed By l imes Special BLOOMINGTON, Aug. 20.—Because of budgetary reductions totaling approximately SIO,OOO, the proposed county tax rate will be reduced to 40 cents, a reduction of 2 cents under this year’s rate. Estimate necessary for next year’s expenses is $173,201.77, including the sum of $46,163.72 for county road bonds. In lc/33 the original estimate submitteed called for appropriations of $219,129.37, but these were reduced

WASH OUT 15 MILES OF KIDNEY TUBES Win Back Pep .. . Vigor ... Vitality Medical authorities agree that your kidneys contain 15 MILES of tiny tubes or filters which help to purify the blood and keep vou healthy.
