- Filmed Under Yale Supervision -|* By the Associated Press. - . CHICAGQ: “August 1.—History was fewrjtten here today, shorn of*much of #fs romance and amplified by Tacts, by the ¥ale Univerzity Press.-To do thisy‘medieval saflors dressed in gay- 1y icolored tights and jerkins, with huge knives in their belts, clambered || through the rigging of the Santa Mg ria off Jackson Park, and Christo- pher Columbus leaned over the rail, crucifix in hand and gazed At the re- ceding shores. Meanwhilg;two cam: era men kept grinding away. Y All this was done that the popular idea of history might be revised and: the school children of America might | have saccurate information, unnon-. taminated by the legends and myths which have grown around the dis- covery of America during the last 400 years, it was stated. Spain Bullt Ship. The Yale University Press is mak- inx a series of historical pictures for | school! use which the history” depart- ! ment of the college {nsists will be as! acourate s research and study can: make then. The exterior and voy- age views are being made‘in Chicago, because In the oon gt Jackson Park, held fast by Columbus’ own an- chor, lles dn exact reéproduction of the great navigator's flagship, the Santa Maria. The Spanish govern- | . which built the boat for the| 3 rld’s fair, says it is cor- rect in every detail. The historic anchor was drawn up today and the Santa Marla was towed ' into Lake Michigan just opposite the point where the cross of La Rabida, a | replica of the convent from which the mariner 1ok to the sea, points; yward. Here accuracy comes into Dl o “shots” except silhouettes| are being made of the convent be- cause the history department at Yale ! says it is accurate only in outline and not in detail. Doubt Jewels Pawned. On board the Santa Maria there were mutinies and troublesome times. Martin Alonzo Pinzon, a Spanish gen- tleman who owned the Santa Marla, commanded the Pinta, and furnished the cash for the trip, climbs aboard for a conference with the navigator. Much more s made of Pinzon in the film than of Queen Isabella’s jewels, for the history professors at Yale do not believe she pawned them at all. They say, according to the men making the pictures, Pinzon furnish- ed most of the money and that al- though Isabella was willing to part with her gems it was not necessary. “We are trying to make this pic- ture a model of accuracy, not only in details but in facts,” sald Roswell Dague, assistant production manager, in explaining the work. “We are not writing In 'a_love story to make it more interesting. This picture, which is the first of a series dealing with American historical events, will be ‘hecked over foot by foot by the Yale history professors and everything thev do not like must come out or be maae over. Pictare Has No Plot. “There are no actors playing thel | parts of priests on board this boat. While Columbus was an extremely | deliglous man, I might say almost fanatically religious—he did not have a priest on his first voyage, and the popular picture of him landing, fol- lowed by a priest bearing & banner, is not accurate. Extracts from Co- lumbus' log book tell us a lot about the vovage and we are producing ev- erything in thesjourney which has any bearing on -the story. There is no plot to the picture. “We take up Columbus in Portugal, where King John received him and then double-crossed him by fitting out his own expedition. We show the mariner fleeing for his life from the <gurt and then his_solicitations to e French and English courts. Finallly he is accepted by the king SEA SLED SAVES SCORES. Rescues Passengers From Grounded Vessel Near Lachine Rapids. MONTREAL, August 1.—A modern sea sled, driven by engines of 300 horsepower, collaborating with sim- ple skiffé manned, by Indians from the Caughnawaga reservation, skilled for generations in combating the treacherous Lachine rapids, yester- day carried several hundred pnuen-] s of the steamer Rapids Prince from the rocks upon which they had been marooned since last night, to! the mainland a half mile away. | The vessel is now resting on a ledge of vock, with_little danger | of sinking, J. W. Noreros president of the Canadian st iines, owners of the Rapids Prince, | said last night that all of the 400 ma- | rooned on the ship would be rescued before morning. - MONTREAL. August ‘1.—Cha; Ross, i cording to a wireless message re- | ceived from the ship. The message stated that Ross and his assistant, Robert Armstrong, were returning to the steamer in a' lifeboat, when it upset. Armstrong was saved. —_—_— Helium, the gas used in the latest army balloons, was duco\g‘::s fifty-four years ago in the sun by means of a Spectroscope, twenty- stven yeats before it was found on earth.
