Yale Law School Summer
Session Plan Approved
It is announced from. ' y univer
sity that the Yale law, iool plan
for a continued summer session has
been officially approved and -will be
in effect durine the next summer.
The first term will extend from June
23 to July 27, and the second term
from July Z8 to September i. inere
have already been two such sessions,
the first in the summer of 1919, and
ihe second last year, but these were
for the purposeo f allowing the com
pletion of the. course by students
who had been obliged to drop their
law preparation to enter the service
during the recent war. This arrange
ment permitted them to complete a
full academic year's work in cas.es
where a certain portion of the year
had been uncomoleted. At the same
time students who desired to attend
three such sessions were, enabled to
shorten the time required to obtain
a degree. An additional purpose was
that of allowing second , and third
year students to take extra courses
during the summer.

Empress "Partners of Fate." .
Muse "Back of the Man."
Neighborhood Houses.
Grand "In the Heart of a Fool."
"Earthbound," chief cinema at
traction at the Rialto theater, marks
an epoch in motion picture produc
tion. The' picture is head and
shoulders above the rank and file of
photoplays.' Love is the theme up
on which the story is based, and t
almost reaches a religion in the
heart of the three ,. principal char
acters. . '
"Earthbound" is really a supreme
achievement of motion-picture art.
Nothing approaching it has ever
been offered to the public.
The plot deals with . life after
death, as written by Basil King.
Wyndham Standing, Mahlon Ham
ilton and Flora Revalles are the
leading characters.' ' '
A story so human, so pathetic, so
real is unfolded in "Madame X" that
audiences at the Sun theater yes
terday were moved to 'their; very
depths. The picture is notably with
out mawkish sentimentality, but is
strong in dramatic power in the
climatic scenes. .
"Madame X" will appeal to those
who appreciate acting, rather , than
action, and should find immense fa
vor with those who are tired of the
flimsy romance and broniidic se-1
quences of "and they lived happy
ever after."
As for the star of the picture,
Pauline Frederick, in her lor.fe career
has never . been ; iven greater op
portunities. The picture means her
re-popularit'.
"The, Charm School," playing at
the Strand theater this week, is a
distinct departure for its star, Wal
lace reid. , A romance among a
school of pretty gi'rls is responsible
for the charm in the picture.
There is plenty of comedy that
flows deftly along with the con
tinuity of the picture.
The hero inherits a boarding
school which is rapidly deteriorating
financially because of old-tasnioned
orincioles and orintioals.
The girls are quite modern and
they welcome the chance to wor
ship at the shrine of a new principal.
Reid installs a plant to make the
sub-debs charming. He eliminates
calculus and higher learning, intro
ducing, instead, courses in dancing,
fun-making and love.
The result Is a long series of com
tdy. Of course, the story is im
plausible. For the photoplay patron who
likes action and variety in his screen
entertainment, a trip to the Moon
theater to see "Out of the Snows"
is recommended. -
Ralph Ince, director and film star,
J th leadinc character.
The story itself is unconventional
even if the 6etting of the Canadian
northwest is more or less familiar to
parons of the photoplay. The story
is of a girl who is a foundling and
knows nothing of her parentage. She
is engaged to a member of the Royal
Northwest Mounted police, but she
hears that he was tile man who killed
her father some years before and she
breaks off the engagement. A suc
cession of dramatic climaxes bring
out the truth, and the story ends
happily. There is nothing of extraor
dinary dramatic appeal that marks
the picture unusual.

Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee leased Wire.
Chicago, Jan. 9. Their bizarre
honeymoon ended. Pierre Taul
Auther and Mrs. Charlotte Franzen,
whom he took from her husband at
the point of a pistol, arrived in Chi
cago this evening. They had been
intercepted in St. Louis on their wav
to Mexico.
. Auther ; is fharged with larceny
and abandonment of his wife and
child and Philip Franzen, husband
of the woman, who lives in Madison,
Wis. may prosecute both of them
for violation of the Mann act.
Anther and Mrs. Franzen both
deny that her husband was menaced
with a pistol and forced to surrender
her to Auther.
Admit Statements Untrue.
They admit telling hi:n that
Auther was her rightful husband;
that they had been married in Aus
tralia nine years ago and he had
just located her. Doth now admit
this was untrue.
Mrs. Franzen says she has known
Auther for several years, and first
met him in Milwaukee.
"I love Pierre," she exclaimed,
"and we have nia! a compact that
we if cannot live together, we will
end our lives. We are soulmates.
I don't feel that we have done any
thing wrong. I expect to get a di
vorce from Mr. Franzen."
Auther says it was a cas; of love
at first sight when he met Mrs.
franzen, and added: "My home life
never was happy. My wife nags me.
If Franzen had made a fight for his
wife I would never have taken her
away from him.'But hy did not think
enough of her to fight for her.
Sign Joint Agreement.
"He signed an agreement in dup
licate that none of us was ever to
bother the others. I tore up my
copy of the agreement as soon as I
had left the house."
Both Auther and Mrs. Franzen
say Franzen was perfectly tractable
and accepted the strange trqnd of af
fairs as a matter ot course. When
his wife announced her determina
tion of going away with Auther,
Franzen obligingly cut a length of
rope from an awning to tie her
trunk. This trunk lead to their un
doing. It was traced to St. Louis,
having been shipped over a road dif
ferent from the one they ivere rid
ing on, and detectives intercepted it
and waited for the couple.
