Some of them even took sick before they left her house and were immediately placed in the care of physicians The Sorenson case, in many of its aspects, appears to be almost an ex- act parallel of the Cunningham pol soning case at Gary, Indiana, in which Mrs. Cunningham, also ad- judged insane, admitted poisoning her husband and four children. Mrs, Sorenson's first husband, Joe Wel: don, two children, one by her first and another by her second husband, and her mother-in-law, were poison- ed, alleged victims of the crazed wo- man’s activities, It differs only in that victims in some cases came from outside the family.

Don’t Be Surprised If You See ~ Casper Girl on the Screen High Compliment Paid Geraldine Airheart by Film Scout Has Casper a future star of the silver screen? R. M. Perry, representative of an eastern film corporation, thinks ¢o. His jmpressions were former of her dancing ability at the recent pre- sentation of the Spanish revue at the high school and they are linked with Geraldine Airheart, one of the cast. “I was much interested in the per- sonality and performance of Miss Airheart,” he is quoted as saying after viewing the production with his wife, who accompanied him to Casper, “Her work is of a high order howing real talent and promise, 1 hope to be able to keep in touch with her, Miss Airheart is a pupils of Miss Genevieve Fitzgerald and scored al £0 las ar when she appeared as Pan in ‘The Pipes of Pan,” given under the auspices of the Casper Women's Departmental el and di rected by Miss Fitegerald, This pro- duction was acclaimed one of the most tistic home staged in Casper, This year Miss Geraldine won the Kiwanis club prize in dramatic speaking, a study in which she shows marked ability She s also been prominent in debating work and was awarded the Phelps Wilson prize of $20 for her work in English and es- say writing. Her ambition finds mi outlets as she is a tireless er and serious in all he en. deavors, being serenely oblivious to the =~ life that occupies the atten- tion of so many young people. Before coming to Casper high Miss Geraldine attended school at Loretta Heights, Denver, and at Ivanson Hall, Laramie, where her record was Productions eyer no less attractive than in her studies here. Bishop Nathaniel S. Thomas of the Episcopal diocese of Wyoming, under whose charge she was while at Ivanson Hall, greatly encouraged her some (wo years ago when he declared that her work in dramtics was extraordinary in one as young and that she would go far in life if she kept her health. It is interesting to note that the object of this sketch is a cousin twice removed, of Eugene Field, the noted author of child verse and a newspaper man whose fame is of lasting recognition. Her father was a talented musician and her mother has been engaged in teaching and in newspaper work in El Paso and Denver. Miss Geraldine is only 15 years of age and is in her second year in high school, She has consequently only begun to realize the possibill tles of her talent, which friends pre dict will carry her far with the same application that she,has shown in early conquests FIGHT INDICTED IN MAIL FRAUD ACCUSED AGAIN Secretary to Governor Morley of Colorado One Defendant.
