SORORITY ACCEPTS - THNEW MEMBERS Dr. Sprowls Outlines Educa- tional Program of Capital i Chapter. Seventy-five business and profes- sional women of the National Capital were initiated last night into mem- bership of the new Washington chap- ter of Kappa Gamma National Soror- 1ty at a banquet held in the Mayflower Hotel. . The educational program of the sorority, based on the theme, “Psy- <chology and Life,” was outlined by Dr. Jesse Sprowls, noted psychologist, head of the department of psychology jof the University of Maryland and author of articles on “Psychology of Everyday Life” in The Star. Dr. Sprowls will conduct the edu- ‘pational activities of the Washington chapter, beginning with the first of = series of 40 fortnightly lectures, to be delivered at a meeting September 25 at the Grafton Hotel. Aesop Fable Recounted. . Recounting one of Aesop's greatest fables, that of the donkey, Dr. Sprowls "said he “would assume Aesop really lived” and said his purpose was “to play the part of Aesop.” “I wish Aesop were here today to write psychology for us,” Dr. Sprowls ‘said. The psychologist, member of the Maryland faculty since 1927, was in- troduced by Dr. D. M. Vogel of the Society for Adult Education, which as helped prepare the sorority's edu- cational program. ‘The sorority, with established chap- ‘ters throughout the Nation, was or- ganized for the purpose of stimulat- ing among its members a more pro- found interest in the subjects of psy- chology and human relations and to present a modern approach to the study of personality through correla- tion of several human sciences, Mrs. Jordan Appointed. Mrs. Atha C. Jordan, director of the National Youth Administration, “has been appointed president of Kappa Gamma’s Washington chapter for the remainder of the year. She presided over last night's meeting and ban- quet.

Cobb Says: Films Lose WNapoleon, Boone and Balzac In Thalberg. HOLLYWOOD, Calif, September 15—Big an industry as the moving picture industry is, the death of one slender, shy, frail man has stunned it. The old guard of this business has lost its little cor- poral and the second gemnera- L] tion of producing talent is left with a yawning gap where yesterday there loomed a leader who was both & ploneer end & progres- sive, Irving Thalberg ‘was an authentic genius of the films —a master showman, a deft interpreter of that tricky art which finds its medium through story and camera and screen. ¥t will be long before they breed another Thalberg out here. For men of his brain, his energy, his pathfind- ing instincts don’t come in sets, don't often come singly. The name Napoleon has been over- worked to describe ability within some small body, but here, to the limits of his own craft, was not only a Napoleon but a Daniel Boone and a Balzac all rolled in one.
