REAL UNKNOWN CORNERS OF UNIVERSE BARED Giant Telescope May Force Scientists to Change Present Theories. parts of the universe discovered to date with the world's greatest telescope was described &t Princeton University Thursday. The talk was by Dr. Edwir world-famous observer on the 100- telescope at Mount observations recently stéin and others to begin rev their ideas of creation Dr. Hubble described the the nebulae, 30,000.000 of ther & separate universe, much like way, which is the “universe million light years in diame: the earth belongs Seen Beyond Vast Void. ‘The 100-inch telescope which, he said, could distinguish an arc light on the moon, shows the Nebulae lying bee ond & vast void surroun: ay. It shows them as 300.000.000 light years ‘These island universes are rushing around in space, ezch in its own direc- tion, at an average speed of about 100 miles a second. But all of those very far out appear to be receding from the earth at speeds increasing with the distance. The fastest one seems to be speeding away at 12,000 miles a second One of the most startling facts shown by the big telescope is that the distribution of the Nebulae, when con- sidered on a grand scale, is approxi- mately uniform in space. “Evervwhere and in all directions,” said Dr. Hubble “the observable region appears to be very much the same OM Conception Changed. On the basis of this uniformity and other observations a different concep- tion.of the nature of the universe is possible. The present interpretation accepted as the most probable one is the r!lltlvlfitlc idea, which limits space. An example of another possibility is » Tevival of the old idea of a super system of nebulate, the Milky Way be- ing just one of the 30,000,000 and more parts of a system too vast for any telescope to discern the outer limits. ‘This super-system would not go on forever, according to the scientific con- cept, but would finally reach an end Space, however, could extend beyond the super-system and might be much larger and different than the limited epace postulated by relativity MILLINERS IN TURMOIL AS EUGENIE HAT PASSES Accessory Dealers Prevent Factory Shutdowns as Second Empire Model Dies Away.

The only American I have gone out h at all is Mr. Gilbert. Many things have been written about my friendship with Mr. Gilbert. But it is only a friendship. I will never marry. My work absorbs me. 1 have time for nothing else. “But I think Jack Gilbert is one of the finest men I have ever known. He is a real gentleman. Ie has tempera- ment. He gets excitea. Sometimes he has much to say.” Greta smiled as she said this “But that is good. I am very happy when I am told that I am to do a pic- ture with Mr. Gilbert. He is a great artist. He lifts me up and carries me along with him. It is not scenes I am doing—I am living.” As far as 1 know, that is the nearest Greta Garbo ever came to discussing her feelings toward Jack Gilbert Abowt this time an article was pub- lished in which the author said he ps choanalyzed Garbo. He said that pature she was shy, withdrawn, aloof, Jonely; that it was not a pose. It was something with which she had been born. Worked Well Alone. At any rate, Garbo appeared to be a one-man woman. For vears she devoted herself to Mauritz Stiller. Then Jack Gilbert seemed to be the only person with whom she cared to associate | But Jack was a friendly soul. There were times when he wanted some of his | old_friends around him. Then Greta Garbo would sometimes refuse to join his parties. That caused argument. Days would pass and Jack would neither see nor hear from the star | When “The Divine Woman™ was re- leased, audiences adored Greta Garbo | | as the little Prench girl who showered | passionate kisses on her soldier lover. | She proved that she could wield the Garbo magic without the inspiration of | Jack Gilbert. But the public was clam- oring for another Garbo-Gilbert picture. The producers announced that in | Greta’s picture “A Woman of Affairs,” taken from Michael Arlen’s story “The | | Green Hat,” Jack Gilbert would be her ! leading man. That was to be the last | picture Greta and he were to make to- | gether. Off Again, On Again. Garbo was eager to make “A Woman of Affairs.” It was to be her first por- | trayal of a modern American girl. While the story had romance running | | through it, it was not filled with the | | passionate, exotic type of love-making that had been seen all through -her cther pictures. Garbo and Gilbert had several scenes heavy with romance. But the fact that their own relations were in a perpetual | state of turmoil seemed to detract from | the glamour of their love-making. The public appeared to sense that the Gar- | bo-Gilbert Tomance was coming to an | Hn]l)\lo’-d could not keep track of the | affair.” It was a case of “Off again, on again.” Greta soon started work in "Wlld] Orchids,” with the Swedish actor, Nils | HED HOME | was excellent, she asked eager GRETA GARBO _As she appears today.
