Officers win Be Trained in
Proper Presentation of
Cases in Court.

Formation Of q special school of in
stxuction for the United States Park
Police. to supplement the regular pro-
gram Of training that is carried for

Ray C.. Montgomery, United States
Army, superintendent of the force, who
explained that the school contemplates
the training Of the policeman in the
proper preparation and presentation OF

United States attorney, is slated 10 de-
liver the first lecture In this course to-
morrow evening at 7:45 o'clock in the

object of the course, Capt. Montgomery
explained, is to afford better instruction
for members of the park police in the
legal points of police work, as II comes
out in the proper charging of an
offender. The captain pointed out that
Q policeman is the first judge in case,
as he has to decide on The spot II an
offense has been committed, what
offense it Is, and II an arrest has to be
made and the proper preparation OF the
case. so that it will stand no in court.
The course, the captain pointed out,
will stress the proper handling of juve-
nile cases, as these constitute con-
siderable part of park violations and
must be handled with great discern
nent and care to avoid bringing erring
young people into court when they
should merely be given an adronition
by the oficer on the spot.

ter of courtesy and aid to the public. A

LulnmOx' Plays
At Fox Imperial

When Fannie Hurst writes a
story, it is read and praised by
millions of people. Perhaps no other
author in the United States in re-
cent years, has written so many as
sured "best sellers" as the author of
"Lummox", which forms the basis
for the United Artists picture
showing tonight and tomorrow at
Fox Imperial Theatre.
Winifred Wcstover, after an alb
scnce of eight years from the screen,
returned to play the leading role of
Bertha Oberg, the "Lummox". She
is supported by notable east in
Guiding Dorothy Janis, Willie Collier
Jr., Edna Murphy, Ben Lyon, Sid
nev Franklin, and others.
"LummoX" is an unusually strong
play dealing as it does with the life
of drudge who continually strives
to help others, only to be msunder
stood and abused. Her life is one
succession of rebuffs, and though
she eventually enjoys 4 triumph, it
is known only to herself. To all
others she is still a dumb-witted
slavcy.
Miss Hurst has handled drama
tic novel with skill and understand
ing. Miss Wcstover has added to
the character her own exceptional
ability as an actress and Herbert
Brenon, who directed the picture,
has combined the talents of the two
women to produce one of the pie
lures that is certain to be an ont
standing one Of the current year.
