* a c. : STAR : j DUST j t Movie • Radio ! a * *+*By VIRGINIA VAU IrkH F IVE small boys have just about disrupted Hollywood. They are the youngsters who played on the stage in New York in “Dead End” and who now are in Hollywood playing the same roles in the picture. They don’t like Hollywood, they think acting in movies is pretty silly, and their complete lack of rever ence for glamorous stars frequently makes the girls furious or tearful. One of them will go up to a famous star, and out of kindness let us call her “Miss X," and say politely, “Is it true that you get paid two thou sand dollars a week?” At her nod of assent, the little tough will look her over critically from head to foot, and say “But why?” “This Is My Affair,” a Twentieth Century-Fox picture, has Barbara Stanwyck and Rob ert Taylor as its stars, which is enough to cause a stampede at the box office any time, but in addition this has some gripping historical scenes. It must be thrilling enough to the old folks who can re member Teddy Roosevelt and Ad miral Dewey to see them represented on the screen, but for those to whom these two great historkcal figures are )ust a legend, tt la downright throat-choking.

Prepared by National Geographic Society. Washington, D. C.—WNU Service. M ANY American college men, old and young, find odd contrasts between uni versity life in the United States and that of ancient Cam bridge. These differences are plain in discipline, in daily life, in the relations between faculty and un dergraduates (never “students” at Cambridge), and in certain cus toms peculiar to this venerable seat of learning. There is little about the dingy rail road station at Cambridge to sug gest that somewhere thereabouts stands a great university town. A policeman of whom you ask your way to “The University” of fers no help; he cannot, simply be cause there are so many colleges here, each in itself a little univer sity. However, after driving into town along a wide thoroughfare which your taxi man tells you had been in ancient times a highway used by Roman soldier*, you finally arrive at St. John’s college which you are to enter. Because John Harvard, principal founder of the famous American center of learning which bear* his name, was educated at Cambridge, this university holds a special to- terest for people la the United States.

In many esses the col leges have acquired much landed property. From the beginning it is im pressed on the student that the loy alty of the individual is first to his college. It is by no means un common for the members of a fam ily to send their sons to one partic ular college, generation after gen eration. But in the background there remains the Alma Mater, the univer sity itself. To the initiated it is your college that you mention first; to the stranger, if asked, you announce yourself as a Cambridge man. The university, like a college, is a corporate body with its own en dowments supplemented by contri butions from the colleges and the government. It also has its own lec ture halls and research laborato ries and it alone appoints the pro fessors, who are the elite among the “dons,” or faculty members. While the ultimate governing au thority Is the senate, which consists of those who have taken the degree of master ef arts, the executive au thority R vested A Ae rbaorafWr. sAcSad bp As ssnoA. wbe is mm sheep* s |S pPpCAA, ssp seePerAud bp PA esHAsss sap •Pw R RuwfABpf Aw Lesson for June 27 a survival of the clerks’ uniform of the Middle ages; but the forms of each college have distinctive fea tures, such as the three small velvet chevrons on the sleeves of those of St. John’s. Normally the gowns are black, but those of Caius (pronounced “Keys”) are blue with black fac ings, those of Trinity a darker blue. They,y and their accompanying square mortar-board caps, are often in the most decrepit state, since a tattered gown or a crushed cap is regarded as a sign of seniority; hence, “freshers,” as the first-year undergraduates are called, fre quently indulge in an orgy of near- destruction to acquire this outward mark of seniority. This procedure can prove expensive. It md^ in volve the purchase of an entire new outfit to tecure the approval of out raged authority.

Friendly rivalry among the col leges is shown in the wide variety of sports Jackets, or “bisters.” They appear in all colors and combina tions of colors, and may denote not only membership in soma particular college but also some athletic achievement, such as membership in the cricket eleven or the Rugb/ football team. Most coveted is the pale blue blazer which only those who have represented the university in ath letics are entitled to wear. For the remainder of their lives these for tunate ones will be remembered as Cambridge “blues.” There are “half blues” for the less arduous sports, such as shooting, or even chess 1 “Blazers” owe their very name to Cambridge, for this was the term quite naturally applied to the scar let coats which the Lady Margaret Boat club, of St. John’s college, adopted as its uniform.

LESSON TEXT- GOLDEN TEXT—Tbw not having received the tng Men them afar off. i of them, and ambracad them, and that they war# atrangen and pUgrlma aa the earth.—Hebrews 11:13. PRIMARY TOPIC—Cod’s Honor RaU. JUNIOR TOPIC—Cod’s Honor RoQ. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC- Jleroes of Faith. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC— Faith Tasted and Triumphant. The great “heroes of the faith** chapter, Hebrews 11, provides an excellent review summary of the messages in Genesis, which we have studied during the last three months. Fittingly, the entire ac count, from the Creation to the hope for the future expressed by Joseph, revolves around the word “Faith.” The patriarchs had many noble qualities but these were all rooted in the fundamental of all virtues, namely, that faith in God without which “it is impossible to please him” (v. 6). Our study may well attempt no closer analysis of the text than to note the results of faith as they ap pear in the verses of our lesson. l. Understanding (v. 3). Philosophy and human research frequently hog down in the confused bypaths of unbelief and partial knowledge, but faith cuts right through the clouds and the confu sion arid “understands” that God A the creator of all things. If you want to know, believe God. n. Worship (v. 4). The world abounds with cults and religions of almost unbelievable di versity. and of appalling insufficien cy for the needs of man.

The treat-em-rough crowd here wanted Harold Groves of the University of Wisconsin for the tax job. Economic royalists are Mr. Groves’ favorite clay targets. Secretary Morgenthau insisted on bringing in Professor Magill, as an authority on federal taxation, and as a man who ought to be able to uncover hide-outs and get-aways in the income tax maze. The Magill report on tax evasion spurs a drive for a general overhauling and tight ening of the income tax law. Presi dent Roosevelt, in hA last press conference, made it clear that the swing on big-income tax-dodgers was entirely premeditated and that a congressional investigation would follow.

VIII. Besurrerttoe (w. 17-lt). God gave a promise end the only means of fulfilling that promise wsa about to be taken away, but Abra ham did not hesitate for he believed that God was able and ready to raise the dead if necessary to fulfill his promise. Have all our prospects been dashed to the ground? Is ev erything hopeless, humanly speak ing? God is both willing and able to make all things work together for good and for his glory. IX. Hope (w. 20-22). The forward look—that is the look of faith. Isaac’s blessing concerned “things to come.” Jacob, too weak to stand alone, leaned on his staff and worshiped, and passed on the covenant blessing. Joseph gave commandment concerning his body, looking forward to God’s fulfillment of the promise. Christian hope is not a wishful de sire that an unbelievable thing may somehow occur. That is an unbe lieving misuse of the word “hope.” To a child of God hope means a well-grounded assurance that God will keep his word. •hwri A Rb «bb NB* A PA A A up A (Bp HVri •Pup fwmgA A AflP • RfiBl «*«rt<gw PA PppppR Thug PwiAfi fp Ra Pi fpfftafeff pa Ah fepA ewp Right awd Wrewg Conscience la that faculty which parcptvA right aad wrong A ac- i-wm •;vw** A diPipgfo^A thorn, awtinppflA Baa cupspaapca pr Bar Bp aoppI affmawAferptAp A Goff.
