Charles Hutchison, of gerous than pettin^ studied your arith
By George
natural hankering for the binomial theorem— a motorcj'cle speed demon who toys with quadratic equations — a boxer who is as familiar with the Newtonian laws as he is with the Rules of the Marquis of Queensberry — a wrestler and strong man who makes a pet of the nebular hypothesis; then combine all this in one personality, and you have Charles Hutchison.
Briefly, Mr. Hutchison puts to practical use the mathematical and scientific knowledge he gained while matriculating at the Western University of Pennsylvania. The foregoing somewhat exaggerated statement of his case is merely by
According to Hutchison, riding a horse
across a fallen tree that bridges a chasm
is merely a matter of confidence in yourself
— and the horse.
TO the list of natural affinities, such as Romeo and Juliet, ham and eggs, springtime and poets, and the like, now add mathematics and muscle, science and '"stunts." Heretofore it has made no difference whether a motion picture star was even on speaking terms with a rejjeating decimal so long as he could act or accomplish feats of physical prowess commonly known as "stunts." But now comes a young man who turns this situation inside out. Strictly speaking, he is a ''stunt'' man, although his ability as a dramatic actor has won high recognition, and he plots his nerve-racking leaps and dives and jumps and swings and what-not by the infallible laws of mathematics and the hard and fast rules of physics. Charles Hutchison, now appearing on the screen in the Western Photoplays serial, ''The Great (iamble," a Pathe release, is the scientific "stunt" man and mathematical athlete who gi\es the lie to the statement that brains and brawn do not mix. Imagine a daring trapeze performer to whom logarithmic tables are as common as any other kind of household furniture — a bridge jumper with a
