long heralded motion picture. version
of Edith .Wharton’s famous story,
“The Old Maid,’ will be offered@ on
the screen _of the Nevada Theatre
Sunday and Monday. It is said to be
the most. gripping and_ realistic
showing of human emotions. that
Warner Bros. have offered this season, which has been remarkable in
their history.
Miss Davis and ks Hopkins advance from girlhood to middle age,
as the actian progresses in the story
of two women who dwell in the same
home but whose hearts are filled
with hatred of each other.
It is the tale of two girls cousins
of a proud old Philadelphia family,
and its period ranges from the beinto the 1880’s. Across that stretch
,of years the two live under the same
.roof—-hating each other, never acchieving reciprocal sympathy or understanding until both are well into
middle age, and the young daughter
. of one is leaving the ancient home;stead for matrimony. Miriam Hdp‘kins is a widow, with two children
of her own. The old maid is Bette
. Davis. She has never wed, yet the
. sweet young girl of the house is her
daughter, born of a farewell night
Lwith the man that both she and her
cousin ‘oved, and who was killed in
the war.

BAY BRIDGE ARE
TESTED ATU. C.
BERKELEY, Jan: 4.—Highty huge
riveted steel joints of various types
used in building the San FranciscoOakland Bay Bridge have been tested by being pulled apart at the University of California, with results
highly graitfying to the designers of
the bridge and others interested in
construction. Like the-University’s
previous tests on large’ structural
models of the bridge,. the tests of
joints served as a check on the engineering calculations and as a guide
in future designs to secure ‘even
greater safety and econmy. ‘
e
Prior to the building of the bridge,
‘joints of such record size could not
be tested directly. because of the limited capacity of precise testing machines. The tests were made possible
by the-giant precise testing machine
which had recently been installed in
‘the engineering materials laboratory
of the University. They were made
by the University with the cooperation of the State Department of Public Works.
The machine, largest of its type
in the world, looks very much like
