Some U. S. surgeons can graft windows into damaged eyes just as effectively as Professor V. P. Filatov of Odessa, who last week told the U. S. Press that he does. Thus Columbia Medical Center's Dr. Ramon Castroviejo has successfully grafted the cornea of a stillborn infant upon the opaque eye of a grown man (TIME, April 15, 1935). But, by publishing in plain language an exposition of his surgery, Dr. Filatov, famed scientist of the U. S. S. R., violated the mores of U. S. ophthalmologists. On the other hand ordinary U. S. doctors learned...
...shootings in the chamber were not the only sad incidents in Mexico last week. As secretly as possible trainloads of Federal troops were hustled north to Sonora. Rumors persisted along the border that seven separate rebel armies were drilling in the dusty mountains, preparing to overthrow Governor Ramon Ramos, a stanch Calles adherent...
...coating of the eyeball, occasionally becomes clouded, so that light cannot get through to the retina. Result: blindness. Eye surgeons recently perfected the operation of replacing such a clouded cornea with a corneal graft from the useless eye of an-other human being (TIME, Oct. 29). Last week Dr. Ramon Castroviejo of Manhattan performed that operation on the left eye of Fremont Clark of Wadena, Iowa with this new twist: Instead of waiting for another patient to give up his cornea, Dr. Castroviejo gave Mr. Clark the cornea of a still-born baby...
...delightful tradition of semi-Viennese operetta "The Night Is Young" succeeds in achieving a good deal of the champagne in three-quarter time atmosphere. Evelyn Laye is physically charming and vocally superb as the ballet girl with whom the Hapsburg heir falls in love. Ramon Novarro is smilingly efficient as the unfortunate prince who must give up love for the duties of the throne and the good of his people--a decision which carries little conviction to a 1935 audience which likes to see its princes happy in the arms of their commoner sweethearts. Charles Butterworth and Una Merkel carry...
...Night Is Young (Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer). This pallid operetta deals heavily with a princeling's love for a commoner. The Austrian emperor's nephew and heir (Ramon Novarro) is enamored of a big-eyed, winsome ballet dancer (Evelyn Laye), hired to cover his dalliance with a countess. Duty demands that he marry a princess and in the end he does so but not before he and the dancer spend an apparently comfortable night on top of a Ferris wheel...
