Lassie Has Thrilling Role In
The Painted Hills/ In Color
Lassie, M-G-M’s popular col
lie star, beloved by every mem
•ber of the family from Grandpa
down to little Junior, has made
a made-to-order role in “The
Painted Hills,” dramatic story
laid against the granite peaks of
Oregon’s Cascade Mountains dur
ing the hectic gold rush days of
1870.
In the new Technicolor picture,
starting MONDAY at the MUSE
Theatre, Lassie is seen as Shep,
devoted companion of the griz
zled gold prospector Jonathan
(Paul Kelly), who has just made
a rich strike in a canyon of the
Painted Hills. When circumstanc
es make the avaricious Lin
Taylor (Bruce Growling) Jona
than’s grubstake partner, he en
tices the latter far up in the
canyon and pushes him over a
cliff to his death. Shep finds his
master’s grave and becomes Tay
lor’s deadly enemy. How, with
almost human cunning he over-

comes Taylor’s attempt to poison
him and leads the murderer up a
precipitous cliff to force him to
fall from a narrow ledge into the
canyon-below is unfolded in a
series of episodes filled with
cumulative excitement and sus
pense. It is by far the most
nerve-tingling and dramatic story
in which the brilliant canine
performer has yet been seen.
Whether in his knowing dem
onstration of loyalty and affec
tion for his master or in such
thrill episodes as Shep’s spine
tingling combat with Jonathan’s
enemy or the wounded dog’s des
perate chase amid the sheer can
yon cliffs, Lassie holds tfie spot
light in every scene and wins
applause for each of his remark
able feats. Paul Kelly is warmly
sympathetic as Jonathan, with
Bruce Cowling creating the prop
er ahtipathy as the avaricous
Taylor. Also prominent in the
proceeding are young Gary Gray,
remembered as the son in “The
Next Voice You Hear ...” and
now playing a youngster who
aids Shep in avenging her mas
ter’s death, and Art Smith, cast
as an itinerant preacher.—Adv.

GOOD HEALTH 1
THE MUMpP?
Answer to Question No. 1:
1. We’re making amazing
progress in defeating many dis
eases. For instance, the death
rate from tuberculosis in 1930
was 71.1 per 100,000 but was re
duced to 30.0 in 1948; the 1930
rate for syphilis was 15.7 while
the 1948 rate was 8.0; pneumonia
and influenza’s 1930 death rate
was 102.50 but by 1948 had
dropped to 33.7. During these
same years appendicitis’ death
rate dropped from 15.2 to 2.9.
On the other hand, the death
rate from diseases of the later
years, such as cancer, diabetes,
and heart diseases, is rising be
cause more people now live long
enough to contract these dis
eases.
Answer to Question No. 2:
2. Mumps is a disease of child

IMPROVING FLOORS
Many farm families, according
to Miss Willie Vie Dowdy, Ex
tension Service home improve
ment specialist, are faced with
the problem of improving scrub
by, rough looking, soft wood
floors. Painting them is a good
answer to this problem she said,
and recommended choosing a
color darker than the walls.

temperature and painful swell
ing at sides of face. It is fre
quently epidemic (attacking con
siderable numbers in a com
munity). When young male
adults get mumps, it can be
serious and needs medical care.
Answer to Question No. 3:
3. An epidemiologist is an ex
pert in determining where an
epidemic has started, where each
individual acquired the infec
tion, the possibility of others be
coming infected and what con
trol measures are needed. This
type of research is being used
with increasing frequency in the
fight against all infections.

Boxing Show
Success; More
Bouts Planned
Middle Georgia boxing fans
were treated to a topnotch show
here last Friday night and heart
ily applauded the American Le
gion post, the sponsors.
lAI (Kid) McCoy of Macon out
pointed Robert Campbell of Fort
Benning in the main 10-round
fight between the welterweights.
McCoy v/eighed in at 146 and
Campbell at 145. Campbell, de
spite the fact that he was running
into McCoy’s gloves all the time,
kept boring in for more, but Mc-
Coy was the master of the situa
tion from the beginning.
In the semi-final, Luther
Whitehurst, a Perry Negro weigh
ing in at 164, showed plenty of
fight and power but he was out
pointed by the more experienced
Larry Jones, Third Army middle
weight champ from Fort Ben
ning. Whitehurst never stopped
fighting but the Army Negro just
had too much ring knowledge for
the local fighter. They went six
rounds and gave a good exhibi
tion of fighting that pleased ehe
crowd.
Other Fights Planned
Emmett King, Perry Negro,
saw ho was outclassed in the
opening minute of the first round
against Norman Clark, Fort Ben
ning Negro, and was counted out
after only a slight flurry of licks.
These boys were welterweights.
Two local fighters, Hudson and
Hightower, tangled in the open
ing battle, with Hudson winning
in three rounds.
Paul Hardy, commiander of the
Legion post, and Dot Roughton,
boxing committee chairman, ex
pressed themselves as being well
pleased with the crowd of about
400 who gathered at Hickson
Field for the fight show, the
first professional boxing promot
ed here in several years. A1 Low,
Perry, promoted the fights for
the Legion and promised even
better cards in the future.
LIQUOR RACKETEERS
It makes no difference how you
feel about legalized liquor or
prohibition, every citizen should
be demanding in no uncertain
terms that the thugs and hood
lums with long criminal records
who have gotten into the legiti
mate liquor business should be
jerked out of it.
The Kefauver Senate commit
tee found that such racketeers,
by contributing to campaign
funds and controlling some pub
lic officials, have a great deal to
do with the breakdown of law
enforcement and the corruption
of public offices.
The committee urged that the
industry itself throw out this
criminal element which it har
bors and recommended that Fed
eral police powers be broadened
to give the government power to
clean out this business.
Brazen Refusal
With consummate gall, the
liquor industry has told the com
mittee and the public to go soak
their heads. The liquor barons
have declared they not only re
fuse to throw out their criminal
hoodlums but are going to oppose
any stronger laws to regulate and
police their business.
And how will they oppose this?
By going to governors and legis
lators and Congressmen and Sen
ators who make the laws and get
ting them to protect the crim
inals, no matter what the public
welfare demands.
We can’t understand why citi
zens will let their public officials
get away with turning the law
abiding citizens’ government over
to hoodlums and racketeers. The
public officials know who these
criminals are—because they ac
cept campaign contributions from
the liquor industry.
Do you want your public of
fices and your government run
by liquor barons and their hood
lums and racketeers? If not,
you should write letters to Gov.
Talmadge, Cong. Forrester and
Senators George and Russell tell
ing them it is high time they
cleaned out this business. “
