The Cinderella story firmly the imagination from t opening shot and sweeps on in a crescendo dramatic ferce in which actio is balanced against dialogue, spa ling wit and situations against moments of drama. Pygmalion, the ! foreword tells us, was legendary figure who gave life to the woman of his dreams, Shaw’s modern ver- sion replaces the hero myth- ology with the phonetics professor who takes up a challenge to con- vert the illiterate flower girl into a reigning beauty. wrough it all he maintains a cold. scientific di regard of the girl's feelings, ig- | ny the fact that, while he can hold her speech and her manners, he cannot reach her soul. Aghast as his callous disregard of her feei- ings she flees from him, and the professor then discovers that she bound him to her with bonds far tighter than any he has imposed on her. - OFFICERS ARE INSTALLED AT JOINT SERVICE Miss Barbara Hermann and Frank Parsons were installed as heads of the Order of Rainbow Girls and De- Molay Boys at a joint ceremony held Saturday evening in the lodge room of the Scottish Rite Temple In stalling of ers were Miss Mary Stewart, retiring Worthy Advisor for the girls order. and Irving Lowell etiring Master Councillor for the boys Members of the Advisory who were conducted into their fices include Mrs. Howard D.

Romantic Theme The film has to do with a society girl who is propelled by the taunts of her fiance into taking up winter sports. She goes to a big winter resort and, is initiated into the mys- teries of skiing, ski-joring, bob sled- ding and skating by two ubiguitous care-free young men, one tall, the other short, who are constantly be- ing pursued by an irate policeman who is a pretty good skier himself but never quite fast enough to catch them. The girl's fiance comes to the resort and they do some gross-coun- try skiing and bob sledding and end up reconciled and at the point of matrimony. On Trail Sunday About forty skiers were out on the Douglas Trail yesterday. The best skiing was found at the slalom course where the ski tow was oper- ated all day. Although the snow was a bit crusted to begin with it worked into a fine surface which 'made good skiing. | Most of the ddy was spent in | working on technique.
