In the fifth installment of a series of opinions on the principal moral, mental, and physical qualifications which make for success in life, compiled from the testimony of men who have achieved success in their respective lines of endeavor, appearing in the Los Angeles Times (Aug. 3), Dr. Roy Malcolm, professor of political science in the University of Southern California, is quoted as follows:
"1. Integrity
2.	Health
3.	Ambition
4.	Energy.
“Success in this so-called “Machine Age” or in any age, is not to be measured altogether in the terms of the market place or high position. Many a man who is the possessor of wealth or enjoys the honors of exalted public office, has dismally failed in the discipline of his own soul. The Apostle Paul cried out, 'But this one thing I do.’ ‘What’s failure or success to me?’ asks Browning, ‘I have subdued my life to one purpose.’

Dr. Gillin, a member of the American Sociological Society and professor of criminology at S. C., pointed out that from 45 to 50 per cent of the inmates of our major penal and correctional institutions are serving a second term. “The United States spends six to ten billion a year on its criminals while the total wealth of Canada amounts to twenty-nine billion,’’ he said.
“We have been sentencing a criminal on the unscientific pr*n-ciple of ‘what has he done?’ when we should take into consideration 'what Is the matter with him?’ Treatment of criminals is not a question of justice but is cne ot the protection of society.
“The courts should decide the guilt of a law breaker and if con-(Continued on Page Four)

Discusses Problems of Modern Science On Afternoon Broadcast.
Situations in several fields of science in which there is a lack of certain definite knowledge were discussed by Dr. R. C. Mullenix, visiting professor of zoology in a radio lecture over KMPC yesterday afternoon at 4:30.
“In many cases it is not possible to determine which of two or more conflictions of nature is true,” states the S. C. lecturer, "but we are under intellectual and practical obligation of holding two views at the same time when it is perfectly obvious that they are contradictory.”
The doctrine of the Mechanistic concept of life with its fatalisUc implications in contrast to the Volistic view which seems necessary to the existance of organized Bociety and civilization was ad-(Contlnued <?n Page Four)

Grainger was a sololBt In the Bowl two years ago, and added greatly to his already extensive reputation. At that time he was married, in the Bowl, to his “Nordic Princess,” Miss Ella Viola Sturm. The couple selected the Bowl as the site of their wedding because it was “dedicated to tbe highest Ideals of art.” Mrs. Grainger is a poet and painter.
Grainger has selected “Spoon River,” “Lord Peter’s Stable Boy,” and “Pastorale” from his many compositions to play tomorrow, “Spoon River” is not entirely original with Grainger, and it ba> an interesting history. A New Wng land family, searching through some old papers in a long-neglected attic, found the music, apparently written by an ancestor of the family, in early colonial days. The music was sent to Grainger, who made a few changes, enlarged upon the theme, and has sinew made it popular.
