Such ingredients as excitement,
love and adventure are said to be
combined in the production of
“Green Hell.’’ initial Famous Pro
ductions film for Universal re
lease, which comes to the New
Orpheum Theatre on 'Thursday
and Friday.
With Douglas Fairbanks, Jr.,
and Joan Bennett heading an out
standing cast of 11 principals,
“Green Hell” is declared to cap
ture a realism seldom brought to
the screen in films of this type.
Big Undertaking
According to advance reports,
a part of this realism is due to
the authenticity of the enormous
upper Amazon jungle sets, con
structed after months of re.search.
But the major reason probably
I lies in the players themselves—
' Fairbanks, Bennett, John How-
jard, Alan Hale. George Bancroft,
George Sanders. Vincent Price.
Gene Garrick, Francis MacDon-
aid, Ray Mala and Peter Bronte.
Each a distil.ct type, these
players invariably make their
screen characterizations ring true.
They’re natural human beings
who do things in a convincing
manner.
Distinguished Writer
Frances Marion, for years one
of Hollywood’s ace scenarists,
■wrote a story about a beautiful
woman marooned in the heart of
an Amazon jungle with six men.
Harry Edington sele-ted this
story for his first offering as a
producer. He is said to have pro
duced it on a lavish scale, sparing
no time o- expense in making it
one of the most outstanding
dramas ever filmed.
Lenoir, Feb. 25.—Walter Fur
man Crenshaw, 30, died in a lo
cal hospital of injuries received;
in his plane crash on the Mat-1
thews Wilson farm near Lenoir j

power stalls at the time of the ac
cident and apparently stalled the,
ship too low. The experienced
amateur pilot was a member of
the Lenoir Flying club. The ship
was a complete wreck.
He suffered a crushed skull
and died in a hospital shortly
after the accident. Funeral serv
ices will be conducted Monday
morning at 10:30 o’clock at the
home on South Main street. Dr.
A. A. McClain, pastor of the First
Presbyterian church, of which he
was a member, will conduct the
services. Burial will follow in
Bellevlew cemetery.
Mr. Crenshaw was a native of
Lancaster and was an employe of
the Barnhart Furniture plant
here. He is survived by his wife,
Mrs. Sara Creijshaw, his grand
mother, Mrs. .1. C. Crenshaw, of
Atlanta; three sisters Mrs. L. H.
Murray of Rock Hill, S. C., Mrs.
W. K. Thompson of Winston-

an early lead and the outcome of
the game was not In doubt at the
end of the first half with Ronda
leading 15 to 6. R. Tharpe. who
wore jersey number 13 and
proved a sensation in Wednes
day night’s play by scoring 21
points, was again a leader in the
attack with 11 hut Hemric was
high scorer with 13. Mountain
View girls played valiantly, will
Whitley being the high scorer
with five points.
The boys’ game was a thriller
throughout and very fitting for
a tourney finale. Enthusiastic
fans were fairly frantic at several
points in the game as each team
fought hard but clean to win
the title.
Millers Creek drew the first
blood with a free throw but
Mount Pleasant was quick to fol
low with a field goal. At the end
of the first period Millers Creek
was on top 5 to 4 but at half time
Mount Pleasant was ahead 8 to 7.
The third ;:eriod’s end found
Millers Creek leading 12 to 10
and the lead was Increased to 18
to 12 with but three minutes to
play.
Mount Pleasant took time out
and came back strong to score
five points. The last play of the
game was an attempted long goal
by a Mount Pleasant player,
which went around the basket
and on the outside, leaving vic
tory with the Millers Creek lads
who were figured in pre-game
dope to take a boating.
Trophies to the winning teams
and individual awards to out-
itanding players will he present
ed in a public program to be
held soon at the North Wilkes

Puneral services for Marvin
McNeely Mayberry, 44, of Jones-
vllle and Elkin, who died Satur
day night, were conducted this
morning at the home in Jones-

after returning home, he was
planning to return to the Wash

ing a few days grew suddenly
more serious and he was taken to
the hospital only a few hours be
fore his death.

Mayberry, of Jonesville. He had
spent most of his life in Jones
ville, with business Interests in

about a year. Exposure suffered
during his army services was
probably the cause of a decline in
his health which had necessitat
ed periodical treatment In hos
pitals in recent years.

of City Cabs of Elkin and a tran
sit bus service in the town and
