The greatest school building program ever known in Los Angeles county is now in progress, and there is a steady influx of teachers into the California school system.
In spite of this, however, because of overcrowded conditions, there are more elementary school pupils on shortened sessions than there were three years ago, according to Dr. C. C. Trillingham, Los Angeles county Superintendent of Schools.
A report inis month by Dr. Trillingham revealed that there are 49.677 students in the county, grades 1-8. who are forced to attend short sessions.
Cannon Speaks -
Dr. W. E. Cannon, associate pro fessor of education, commenting on the report, said that the city of Los Angeles is better off than the majority of cities and towns in California.
However, there seems to be no end in sight to the present prob lem. for the ratio between the California birthrate and the ability to build schools will widen instead of narrow in the future, he said.
Too Many Children The report by Dr. Trillingham was optimistic concerning elimina tion of most shortened sessions during the next few years. It pointed out the fact that $250 million of state money was made available to the schools in last year’s elec tion and that new classrooms are on the way.
“At any rate, short sessions have not had any appreciable effect on learning or on juvenile delinquen cy so far,” Dr. Cannon said.

Invisible Man' Walks Tonight In Film Series
One of the most unusual films ever produced, “The Invisible Man," will be screened for tonight’s Rim Classic program at 8 in Hahcock auditorium.
Claude Rains appears in the title role of H. G. Wells’ fantastic story of a mad scientist who has be come invisible and aspires to world power.
Trick Effects
“The Invisible Man,” produced in 1933 by Universal, set the precedent for trick photographic effects. More trick cinematic devices were invented for this movie than had been previously used. It is disturbingly eerie to hear Claude Rains’ voice issue from empty chairs and unoccupied rooms.
When Rains is first encountered, he is wrapped in bandages. As he begins to peel them off the audience is startled to find he has no chin. This is only the beginning. Cigarettes are smoked by invisible lips, clothes dance along the street, and chairs are hurled about by un seen hands.
Goes Mad
The scientist has discovered s drug which will render him invisible. It has two drawbacks; there is no antidote, and the drug is slowly driving him mad. During his invisible career, the scientist leads a life of maniacal destruction
Throughout the film, only Rains magnificent voice, which ranges from tones of tender emotion to metaphysical horror, is heard. He is never seen until the last scene, where on his death bed the powerful drug wears off, revealing Rains' prone figure.
First Movie
“The Invisible Man” was Rains first movie role. Previously he had done only stage work. It was this film that established him in motion pictures.
Tonight’s program is the seventh in the Film Classics series. Admission is by season ticket only. Tickets are still available at the cinema office, 535 West 35th street, for $3.
