A motion picture production with much of tbe muni oil charm of "Viennese Nights" and with an appeal very like "Only Yesterday," has been booked for first run show inn In Eugene starting next Sunday at the Colonial thenter, it Is announced today by Vern Godfrey, mnnnger.

This picture is entitled "Beloved" and has for stars John Boles and Gloria Stuart. The picture Is now showing at the Broadway theater in Portland, where is was accorded an enthusiastic reception at Ha opening Saturday night. It will come here direct from its Portland run. "Entirely off the beaten track of song-and-dance comedy Is 'Beloved'" writes Fred M. White, dramatic critic of The Oregonlan, In reviewing the picture.

"Jt is serious entertainment, but beatiful and sincere, classically motivated, yet larking none of tbe essential elements of drama, thrill and topical humor. "Mr. Boles appears as a musician, a man born Into a world of fine music and possessed of Inherent good taste. His ambition Is to write a grent American symphony, inspired by the country's growth and progress through the strife of three wars. The musician's life, however, is fraught with disappointment.

(Spe- tinctive. There is a whimsy and deli cacy of the design thnt appenls perhaps more to adults than to children. The cat is not just a cat, but a very personable puss. The squirrel nibbling his nut almost moves while you look at it. All the grace nnd beauty of the deep woods is reflected in tho deer.

That Mr. Harbison "has something" in these new creations of his is perhaps reflected in the unusual demand for them at a time when money for "trinkets" is scarce. A grenter indication is shown in the story of one artist on the campus who picked up the first wooden deer Mr. Harbison made, inquiring the price. When he was told "one dollar he said, ''Surely you mean ten dollars haven't you forgotten one of the ciphers?" Roans it red thnt "one dollar" was correct he purchased the piece, nnd "took it home In triumph." Since then several members of the art faculty have put In orders with Mr.

Harbison. That Harbison has taken something with which he is familiar nnd converted it Into renl art is of interest not enly to ortists but laymen. He used animals for his subjects, instead of attempting something ethereal or abstract, and his nnimals are artistic, laymen enn "understand" his art interpretations. He has utilized odd bits of the fragrant Port Orford ceikir, which combines softness with beautiful grain. He realized that although this wood had not been used as much ns the more pouplar myrtle, it could be worked with just as results.

A third will be a figure of a splendid, spirited wild horse of the eastern Oregon plains. It has already been started.

These figures stand about J5 inches high when mounted on a base. Besides all this work, Mr. Harbison has made numerous, toys and game boards for the development room for handicapped children which was established in the Koosevelt school this year. He Is making plans now to extend his work to creating hand-carved wood, book-ends, ash traye, and other articles. The animals remain, however, the most intriguing and interesting of his work.

Before he starts whittling, Mr. Harbison makes sketches of the object he wishes to create. He draws these sketches for all sides of the finished article. Then he starts in on a pungent Port Orford cedar block. After the animal is completely shaped, the wood must he sand-papered and polished until (he surface is slippery-smooth.

The final job la mounting and polishing the whole with a colorless wax, leaving the beautiful grain of the cedar clearly visible. Not only is the actual workmanship on these animals beautiful for E' J' Fay's Drams -e "Sweet Magnolia" Zi For Z-25 "Sakra" display at the Corcoran uanery oi art in Washington, D. C.
