 ''The Captive and Sex" were re- gently acquitted of immortality or in- decency by the citizens play jury, sponsored by District Attorney Ban ton who had pledged acceptance of their verdicts. Sex" had been run ming II months. "The Captive" is in it's fifth month. and "The Virgin Man" is in it's third week.
 Will Boost Bail.
 Higher bail will be required if any of those arraigned last night are taken into custody again, Assistant District Attorney Albert Unger, aid- ing in the prosecution, said. Arrests will be repeated at every perform ance, authorities said, unless the plays are withdrawn or modified to confer with the penal code section prohibiting indecent productions. Acting Mayor Mckee voiced the confidence of the authorities for victory in the campaign. Regarding the possibility of an injunction pro- ceeding against the police" he said, "the city has the utmost confidence that the courts will stand for de- cency.'
 Walker Approves.
 Mayor James Walker, on vaca- ton trip In Cuba, is aware of the cleanup procedure, MT. Mckee said, and has voiced his approval of the crusade. Mayor Walkers order to producers several weeks ago to clean house started the censorship, discus sion that led to the present cam paign.
 The arrests last night were made quietly on warrants issued by Chief City Magistrate McAdoo. Cordiality prevailed on all side as the officers handed the producers and perform CTS in the three plays warrants al- loging producers and performers taking part in an indecent show"
 Shows Were Finished.
 The plays were in progress when the police arrived but the arrests were not made until after the final curtains fell. The shows were pre- scented in their usual form and the audiences in virtually all cases left the theaters unaware of what had taken place.
 Preparation for the crusade had been under way for several days. District Attorney Banton and Police Commissioner Mclaughlin have had representatives at Broadway plays for the last two days recording lines, action and costumes that might tend to corrupt the morals of youth or others"
 Out With The Dirt.
 Decision to use warrants instead of warning was reached at confer cnce between the police commission CT, the district attorney, Chief Magistrate McAdoo and acting May or Joseph V. Mckee yesterday. Out with all this dirt" MT. Mckee de- manded at the conference. Lets
