HANGS UPON
VOTE TODAY
Free Sunday Shows Draw Big
Crowds, As Protests Fill
Church Mass Meetings

BALTIM ORE, May 2.
Friends and enemies of Bal
timore's proposed anti-blue
ordinance are flocking to the
polls in a special election to-
day to decide if this city is
to enjoy "liberalized" Sun
days.
Motion picture theaters, like
churches, were free yesterday on
the eve of the balloting. They
were jammed by supporters of
the ordinance and by many others
who enjoyed the privilege of see
ing a good show without paying.
Mass Meetings Protest
Mass meetings Of opponents of
the measure were held in the
Mt. Vernon Methodist Episcopal
and other churches.
Long queues of patrons waited
at theater doors for the opening
of the ShoWhouseS. The theater
attendance was about 40 per cent
above the average weekday at
tendance. Theater managers esti.
mated that 100000 persons
visited the various houses, and
heard talks by champions Of the
measure.
Liberals" Optimistic
If the ordinance is passed to-
day, it becomes effective imme-
diately and this city will be gov
erned by the new regulations
next Sunday.
While champions of the new
ordinance admit many theater-
goers yesterday may have gone to
the shows to enjoy the novelty
of a free show and not because
they mean to vote for the meas
ure, they nevertheless are opti,
mistic that the ordinance will
carry by an overwhelming ma
jority.
