MONTHS OF SERVICE
 FATE OF JURORS IN
 SICILIAN MAFIA TRIAL
Assootqted Press Photo
BY ANDRUE BIRDING Associated Press Staff Writer

SCIACCA, Sicily, Aug. 14.-Six, seven or eight months out of ones regular occupation is what it means to be junior in the monumental trial here of 241 members of the Mafia. the Sicilian source of rack eteers.
 The trial began early in July and the steady seemingly interminable grind on the jurors-as well as on everybody concerned-has begun too.
 Judge Allcati had tremendous difficulty in getting a jury. None wished to give up from a half to three-quarters of year from his business or profession. or, if he had no occupation, to sit steadily listen ing to a drone of testimony month after month.
 In one sequence, the Justice had to fine dozens of prospective jurors for absenting themselves from court. In the end, several lawyers, some teachers, an auditor, clerk, two druggists, and retired tax collector, were empanelled.
 The trial is highly important to the people of Sicily. If it results in the condemnation of the defend- ants, it will remove the last remain ing group of any size associated with the hated but feared Mafia and virtually complete Mussolini's work of cleaning up the racketeers, many of whom already have trans ferred their activities to American cities.
 The jurors must hear testimony on 43 murders, 26 attempted mur- ders, host of assaults, mountain of extortions and multitude of minor crimes. A thousand witnesses have been subpoenaed.
 And after the thousand witnesses and the scores of attorneys are heard, the jurors will have to re- spond to no fewer than 50,000 in- terrogatories in connection with their verdict. They will be out several weeks doing nothing but writing answers to questions, like schoolboys sitting down to exam nations that never stop.
 Before them every day of trial will be about 200 of the defendants in cages. By Italian procedure, de- fendants are not permitted to sit be- side their lawyers. When the trial opened, there were 1855 men of all ages in several great cells. The re- mainder were reported i'll. Among the accused are some prominent citizens of Sicily who according to the prosecution, have made millions of lire from their racketeering operations. One ot them is Vincenzo Baiamonte, a monsignore of the church. ] Almost every lawyer in Sciacca has been drafted by the defense SC except for the trial there will be very little legal business done in Sciacca for some months. Other attorneys have come from Palermo and cities on the Italian mainland Chief of them all is Senator Abissa

the magic Of good and sincere act
ing. Elliott Nugent, formerly q
member of the Stuart Walker com
pany here. wrote the story in con-
nection with his own dad. It IS Just
a story Of home life, filed with what
one may call the dramatic and
emotional license of the authors. The
truth is, that Adolf is just too good,
sweet and lovely in his home re-
lations, to live and get by. He Just
suffers and suffers as one by one his
children go wrong on him and treat
him very badly. But the story ends
with one of the sons bringing home
the bacon, meaning that Pa and Ma
Wagenkan1p will not have to go to
the poor house and that the wolf
will never call again The ending
shows all the children dropping in
on Christmas to treat Adolf and his
wife as real sons and daughters
should. Sort of a scene that made
"Abie's Irish Rose" so effective in
the last act.
You may call the story too the
atrica1 and artificial, but it seems
to go back to the days when we
liked our home stories to be senti-
mental and eye dripping.
You will notice that Louis Mann
brings to the talking screen the
same legitimate methods he used
on the stage. He probably made
his direcor go about nuts by the
way he did certain things, but
Mann knows how to act in the War
field school and get human re-
suits Mann does some fine acting
Elliott Nugent, besides helping to
write the story. plays the role of
one Of the SONS. The other son
is Francis x. Bushnan Jr.. and
the daughter is Leila Hyans. The
cast IS good
But it is Louis Mann who really
makes this picture He will get
into your heart.
