Cora Sue Collins, Former Child Actress of Hollywood's Golden Age, Dies at 98
Cora Sue Collins, a former child actress known for her contributions to Hollywood's 'Golden Age' of cinema in the 1930s and 1940s, has died at the age of 98. According to her online Born on April 19, 1927, in Beckley, West Virginia, Collins appeared in nearly 50 films over the course of her 13-year acting career. The actress made her onscreen debut at the age of 5 with a role in the 1932 comedy 'The Unexpected Father.' She went on to star in four other films that year: 'The Strange Case of Clara Deane,' 'Smilin' Through,' 'Silver Dollar,' and 'They Just Had to Get Married.' Collins landed parts in nearly a dozen films the following year, famously portraying the younger version of actress Greta Garbo's title character in the romance drama 'Queen Christina.' After landing a contract with MGM in 1934, Collins and Garbo appeared together in the 1935 film Anna Karenina, which was based on Leo Tolstoy's 1878 novel of the same name.

They include Claudette Colbert, Irene Dunne, Merle Oberon, and Bette Davis via the films 'Torch Singer' (1933), 'Magnificent Obsession' (1935), 'The Dark Angel' (1935), and 'All This, and Heaven Too' (1940), respectively. Some of Collins's other standout film credits include 'Keep 'Em Rolling' (1934), 'Treasure Island' (1934), 'The Scarlet Letter' (1934), 'Little Men' (1934), and 'The Adventures of Tom Sawyer' (1938). The actress's death triggered an outpouring of touching tributes online. 'RIP to another special friend, one of the last major movie stars of the 1930s,' pianist Adam G.

Silver Dollar Completes Initial Exploration Drilling Program at the Ranger-Page Project in Idaho's Silver Valley
Near-surface discoveries include 17.4 ounces per ton AgEq over 3.04 metres at the Wyoming Target Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - March 11, 2025) - Silver Dollar Resources Inc. (CSE: SLV) (OTCQX: SLVDF) (FSE: 4YW) ("Silver Dollar" or the "Company") is pleased to announce assay results from multiple near surface discoveries at the Ranger-Page Project, located on the west side of the prolific Coeur d'Alene Mining District in northern Idaho. Mineralized intersections at the Wyoming Target indicate exploration remains open along strike and down dip, with mineralized continuity established up to 165 metres east of the Blackhawk Mine. Multiple intersections at Crown Point Target extend mineralization west of historic workings by 100 metres. The Ranger-Page project is ideally situated within two miles of the Bunker Hill Ag-Pb-Zn Mine, where the restart of full nameplate production is expected in the first half of 2026. Figure 1: Plan Map of Ranger-Page Project Showing Exploration Target Areas (Sections Lines) and Drillhole Traces (Black). To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: Wyoming Target Exploration drilling at Wyoming focused on testing ground induced polarization (IP) anomalies identified adjacent to the historic mine workings, extending mineralization below the historic Wyoming underground workings, and investigating the gap between the Wyoming Target and the Blackhawk Mine. All four drill holes discovered silver (Ag), lead (Pb) and zinc (Zn) mineralization, demonstrating continuity along strike of 103 metres and a depth extension of 75 metres below ground surface. Hole RP-2025-005 (Figure 2) intercepted 3.04 metres of 17.4 ounces per ton (opt) AgEq, demonstrating the exploration upside for this target in future drilling campaigns and the potential to relate Wyoming mineralization to the on-strike projection of the Blackhawk Mine.

To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: Crown Point Target Exploration drilling at Crown Point has extended near surface mineralization roughly 100 metres west of the historic mine workings (Figure 4). Two separate mineralized zones have been identified thus far, with the best intersection from hole RP-2025-002 returning 1.1 metres of 6.2 opt AgEq, including 0.21 metres of 18.7 opt AgEq (Figure 5). This target remains open for exploration along strike to the west, and down dip below the Ranger-Tunnel crosscut (Elev. 805m).

QAQC Quality assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC) procedures are overseen by the Qualified Person. Silver Dollar QA/QC protocols are maintained through the insertion of certified reference materials (CRM), blanks and duplicates within the sample stream. Drill core is cut in-half with a diamond saw, with one half placed in sample bags and the other half retained on-site. The chain of custody is maintained from the drill to the submittal into the laboratory preparation facility. Analytical testing was performed by SVL Analytical in Kellogg, Idaho. The entirety of each sample was crushed to <3/8" before a 200-gram split was pulverized to minus 200 mesh. Multi-element analyses were quantified by Inductively Coupled Plasma (ICP) after an aqua regia closed-vessel microwave digestion. Higher grade silver samples were selected for fire assay with gravimetric finish.

Cinch World's Toughest Rodeo returns to St. Paul this weekend
ST. PAUL, Minn. — Cinch World's Toughest Rodeo returns to the Xcel Energy Center Friday and Saturday night. This year, the rodeo has added new, free (for ticketholders) pre-show events when doors open at 6 p.m. Pre-show events will happen before both Friday and Saturday's rodeo. Some events they're offering this year include pony rides, meet the cowboys, hop in the clown's barrel, take a seat on Silver Dollar the bull in the bucking chutes for a photo, or get up close and personal behind the chutes. Official event information on Xcel Energy Center's website advertises this year's rodeo as, "Expect edge of your seat action, eight seconds at a time." Tickets are still available. WCCO's Shayla Reeves visited the rodeo on Friday morning and showed off her lasso skills. To see her lasso a bull, watch the video above.
