PLAN MUSICAL TREAT
Quarter Century old Festival Mass To Bc Played In Bridgeport Church Christmas Eve

Bridgeport. Dec, tF--An unusual musical program will b" rendered at the celebration of the midnight mass at Trinity Episcopal church on Christmas eve, when the festival mass in D Minor, composed by FL mer s. Joyce of this city, choirmas- ter of the church, will be sung by double quartet.
 Twenty-Five years ago, Prof Joyce then organist and choirmaSter at the Church of the Sacred Heart. R. C., composed the mass, which was sung by an augmented choir including singers from Protestant churches The mass won the praise Of musical critics, but shortly after its initial presentation an order was promul- gated in Roman Catholic churches that the florid style of music be supplanted by the Grcgorian chant more in keeping with the traditional melodies, and the work was never repeated nor was it published.
 Recently Prof. Joyce became or ganist and choirmaster at Trinity church and spent two months revis- ing and rewriting the mass Of quarter of century ago.
 Musical critics from throughout the state and from New York are expected to be present at the Christ mas eve celebration.

STAGE AND SCREEN
 IN MORTAL COMBAT
Fox Said to Be Trying to
 Control Drama

New York. Dec. 8 tR - Leading American playwrights have locked horns with motion picture inter- ests in what they describe as a death struggle for the future of the American stage.
 At secret meeting yesterday of forty-seven dramatists, plans were laid for the fight and a committee appointed to carry them into ac- ton.
 The step was taken because of reports that William Fox, motion picture producer, is making efforts to finance five well-known New York producers of plays in eX- change for film rights. The dra- matists interpret this as an at tempt to corner the play produc- ton market and say they are fac ing desperate situation.
 Maurice Keynes. Fox production manager, admits that offers have been made but refuses 10 name the producers, Broadway gossip names five of the largest producers on the Rialto as those in question.
 If the deals are closed and other motion picture producers make similar agreements 10 protect themselves against Fox, the play w-rights argue they will find them- selves with q market limited and controlled by four or five concerns.
 Charming Pollock, author of many stage successes, says that, aside from the official action de- cided upon by unanimous vote at yesterdays meeting, he and sev- eral other leading authors would cease to write for the stage unless the matter were satisfactorily set tied.
 While the action decided upon was not made public, veterans of the show business said that only three courses are open to the au- thors. The first and most feasible, they claim, is for the dramatists 10 join the American Federation Of Labor, in order to ally themselves with the Actors Equity association and It's 10000 members.
 The second course is to make such an alliance with the Actors Equity association without joining the federation of labor, but Equity officers say this Is impossible.
 The third course would be to boycott certain producers, but the- atrical wiseacres point out that this would be a disadvantage in that 1t further limits the market of the dramatists.
 Among those who attended yes terday's meeting were: Eugene O'Neill, Owen Davis, Jess Lynch Williams, Laurence Stallings, Max well Anderson, A. E. Thomas, Don Marquis, J. Hartley Hammers, Cos mo Hamilton. Oscar Hammerstoin and Rita Weiman.

OHIO DRY HEAD
May SUE after
RAID ON HOME
Says Invasion Is Typical of
What Is Going on
Unabated.
BN Times Special

BU IfmeS SDectdt
CLEVELAND, Ohio, Aug. "a
State Senator George H. Bender,
leader Of Ohio "drys" has started
a fight to preserve tho sanctity of
the home against invasion by raiders
seeking liquor upon illegal search
warrants.
The Senator, who has fought con-
sistently for prohibition in the
Ohio State Legislature, has threat
ened to sue Federal agents for
$4,000, because they broke into the
front and back doors of his beautiful
home here and messed things up
searching for booze. They found
none.
Bender learned the raid was based
upon a sorawled note signed only
"Citisen. 1t read
"Riad 1908 Cedar Rd Canada B.
and Wisk."
The agents ransacked the house
in the presence of Bender, his wife
and their pa year-old child.
1.-The raid is only a sample of
what is going on In this State day
after day without redress for the
people whose homes are smashed
into" said Bender.
TT is an outright violation of~the
constitution. A man, in my opinion,
has a right to shoot such trespassers
in his home as he would any other
person who breaks into it."
Ohio Prohibition Commissioner D.
F. Mcdonald announced a letter of
apology for the agents acts would
be sent to Bender and the affair in
vestigated.
