GEORGE BERNARD SHAW AT 82 SAYS

WON'T BE REJUVENATED”

But He May Write Α Play About The Subject

MR.

[R. GEORGE BERNARD SHAW, who will be 82 in

July, may write a play about rejuvenation.

This is the hope of Professor Siegfried Trebitsch, who trans- lates all the Shaw plays into German.

When they meet in London vigour of youth to the aged by the HOON, Professor Trebitsch will new methods of gland injection and lay his rejuvenation novel, "Der the Voroneft treatment. Verjungte" on the table and! ask Mr. Shaw to base a play on

it.

"It's one of the matters we will discuse," Mr. Shaw Anid, "but haven't decided yet."

Asked whether he was partien- farly interested in the question of rejuvenation, he replied: "Every;| one is interested in 1-myself not more than ofliers, perhaps.

"To live to a grand old nge might) make me happy. Old age is not an unhappy Unie.

"HEART ALL RIGHT”

Our conversation turned to the latest discoveries of medical science for prolonging life, for restoring the

Mr. Shaw, "but I have no opinionh

about his treatment.

"At any rate, I have not been operated on myself, and I don't in- tend to be.

"Not because I think much opera- tions pro wrong or unethical, though there may be circumstances which

make an operation very Inconsiderate to other people."

When I mentioned the experiments of Colonel Lindbergh and Dr. Alexis Carrel on an artificial heart designed | to make man immortal, Mr. Shaw said: "It doesn't interest me. My heart keeps going all right-and that's enough for me at prescat."

"SETTLING DOWN” ATTITUDE HELD

TO BE ERROR

Pasadena, Cal. With nearly 2,000,000 young people scheduled to be married in the United States this year and of whom 200,000 may be divorced, Dr. Paul Popenoe of this city has drawn an outline of the situation as a whole.

As Judge of the Los Angeles County Institute of Family Relations for the past eight years. Dr. Popenoe feels that he has gathered a great deal of information on why marriages fall.

From

the thousands of cases he has handled of trying to reconcile

She is always trying to flirt with some man in public.

She runs to mother for sympathy. She opens her husband's mail,

She permits herself to get fat and untidy in appearance.

She leaves her stockings soalding in the wash bowl when her husband has three minutes to shave.

BLAME PLACED ON BOTH

A few of the causes of the unhappy

situations that result and a few of the possible remedies, Dr. Popenoe has listed as follows:
