Remains Of Pre- Historic Animal Found In Texas (Intercollegiate Press) Ann Arbor, Mich., Nov. 3.—The The Museum of Paleontology of the University of Michigan has an nounced discovery of the dorsal armor of a giant phytosaur of the Triassic Age. The discovery was made near Amarillo, Texas, by an expedition composed of Dr. E. C. Case, direc tor of the museum, and several aids. Dr. Case describes phytosaurs as large carnivorous reptiles, like crococdiles in form and hapits. The specimen was part of the skeleton of an animal about 25 feet long which lurked in the swamps some 50,000,000 years ago. The phytosaur’s back was cov ered by an armor made up of thick bony plates, and the Michigan ex pedition made the first find of a set of the armor plates in undis turbed position. A novel mystery thriller with a good cast, comes, in .“Guilty Hands,” with Lionel Barrymore, Kay Francis, and C. Aubrey Smith. The story is something new in mysteries, and with such a cast, should be a relief from the old type. “The Beloved Bachelor,” is a beautiful heart interest story, fea turing the love of an artist. The plot is interesting, and carried well by an excellent cast. Paul Lukas, Dorothy Jordan, and Charles Rug gles play the leads. As a great lov er, Lukas does not know with whom he is in love, until he realiz es that a young lady he had rais ed from babyhood has his heart strings, but it is almost too late. Ruggles does well in supplying the comedy. And now for another stage show on the screen, “Flying High." Tak en from George White’s Broadway comedy hit, and led by Bert Lahr, star of the original stage success, it is a real comedy. With Lahr, the new screen comedian, is Charlotte Greenwood, the longest laugh in pictures, and Pat O’Brien, Broad way favorite. You shouldn't be dis appointed in this humorous story of the air ways.

Co-eds Rejoice To Learn The Dean Of ^ 1 Women Pitched Hay DOllbterS 83$ l (College News Service) Walla Walla, Wash., Nov. 3.— Recalcitrant co-eds at Whitman college engaged in mental retrench ment this week following the rev elation that Miss Thelma Mills, dean of women, spent the summer pitching hay on a farm near Forest Hills, Oregon. Murmurs among the bobbed heads were to the effect that house rules, lockout rules and other some times troublesome regulations were fairly safe from infraction after all.
