REAL FOOTBALL PIC TURF IS AT
 THE CAPITOL.
That's $ My Boy Features Richard Cromwell, Dor
 othy Jordan, MaeMarsh

The Columbia picture That's My Boy" an adaptation by Nor man Krasna of the football novel of the same name by Francis Wal lace, aut hor of "Huddle' and Touchdown" is the feature this evening at the Capitol Theatre; The stars are Richard Cromwell, Dorothy Jordan and Mae Marsh
 Cromwell, as "Snakehips" Scott, football idol of the moment, starts all the commotion when he de- mands that his graduate manager pay him $50,o00 for his services instead of the $6.000 a year which he gets for selling bonds (which he doesn't sell at alb. The demand seems reasonable enough in that it is Scott who has made his col lege team a winning team, and it is a winning team, and only a winning team, that fills vast col lege stadiums.
 It is the method employed to raise the money that involves Scott in an ugly scandal, turning even his team mates against him. His mother and dad alone stand stead fastly by. Everything straightens out in satisfactory fashion and Scott ends his college sport career in a blaze of glory in one of the most logical climaxes of any grid film.
 That you may be sure of seeing the real thing in football sequences, let us remind you that the Uni versity of Southern California C931 National Champions and St, Mary's who beat U. s. c. in an early season game last year, are the principals.
 Dorothy Jordan is the girl in the picture, niultimillion- -heiress in love with Cromwell. Mae Marsh plays heart appealing m ct h CT role. Lucien Littlefield gives very creditable ch haracter portrayal. "Dutch'' Hendrian also plays a small part in the film, along with Russell Saunders. Arthur Stone, Douglas Dumbrille, Leon Waycoff and Otis Harlan complete the cast.

LOS ANGELES, Cal, May 1.- A divorce suit has been filed by Joan Crawford against Douglas Fairbanks, Jr., charging "grevious mental cruelty attributed to Fair banks jealous nature.
 Miss Crawford did not mention the $5O,00 alienation of affections suit brought against Douglas, Jr., by Jorgen Dietz.

Postofffce officials today were
pondering the jumbled liquor ad-
Vertisement situation, response
bility for which was placed in
their hands yesterday by Attorney
General HON S. Cummings.
In the absence of Postmaster
General Farley, the question was
turned over to Joseph C. O'Ma-

eral, and Horace j. Donnelly,
acting department solicitor, who
indicated "they may have an an
nouncement of Importance to
make today"
Attorney General Cummings, in
placing in the Postmaster
hands responsibility for liquor
ads sent through the mails
pointed out that the Reed
amendment, which provides a
fine up to $1,000 and a six-month
prison term for mailing liquor
ads into dry States, is still in
effect.
The opinion was interpreted
0S meaning that newspapers,
magazines and periodicals will
not be able to publish liquor ads
until Congress acts on the Reed

Chicago. Nov S.-(UP)-Edward
J. (spike) o'Donnell, chatterbox
gangster, to-day put the blessing of
the remnants of g once powerful
beer barony upon "the repeal"
AS an afterthought he added the
blessing Of the Good old God
fearing Irish mother that brought

1.-THE repeal is the merits" said
O'Donnell who ten yeras ago was
one Of the southside's most motor
ious beer barons. "The day Of the
Chicago gangs Is over, don't have
to worry anymore"
O'Donnell expanded as he waxed
warm to his subject. OF late, the
demon beer peddler who ruled his
territory with a handy trigger fin
ger has devoted his time to haunt
ing courtrooms in hopes reporters
and newsreel photographers would
record for posterity his philosophy
and opinions.
"The repeal" said O'Donnell, "is
going to take the lettuce away
from the hoodlums. And when you
take away their lettuce you break
up the booze syndicate.
Lettuce, O'Donnell explained, is
underworld argot for money.
"I've spent plenty of lettuce to
prove was an honest business
man." O'Donnell said. "I'm not for

The b1unders of the drys, the
gradual organization Of their op.
ponents, the desertion of promi-
nent members Of the dry cause, the
business depression which lent ex-
pediency to the repeal campaign
all were cogent factors in the
trend. Yet as recently as 1891
Dudley Field Malone was calculat-
ing solemnly that it would take
25 years to annul the Eighteenth
Amendment. And nearly twelve
years before that, when prohibi-
ton became effective on the MORN
ing Of January 16, 1920, there were
many who agreed 1t would remain
for at least half a century.
Opposition From Start.
The record, however, shows that
there was powerful opposition from
the first. Brewers and distillers and
organized labor had champiohed
the doctrine of states rights. The
hard-liquor men had carried the
fight into state legislatures to try
to prevent ratification. The beer
men were the ones who briefed the
case against the Volstead Act and
asked q presidential vote. They
also hired Elihu Root to carry an
appeal to the supreme court in
1920.
"Now for an era Of clean living
and clear thinking" benevolently
acclaimed the Anti-Salloon league.
But on the very next day, when
four stills were seized, 1t became
apparent that enforcement might
be more of chore than had been
anticipated. Shortly thereafter two
federal agents were arrested for
corruption. By March the state Of
Mississippi had voted down a pro-
posal to aid federal, enforcement.
In June, prohibition agents seized a
stock of liquor from the special
train of the Massachusetts, dele

which would scientifically define
Intoxicating strength" Senator
Edge of New Jersey had proposed
an amendment which would In
clude the words "non-intoxicating
in fact" instead of the one-half of
one per cent maximum.
Three days after President
Hoover's inaugural address, Mrs
Charles II. Sabin resigned from
the republican national committee
and formed the women's organiza-
ton for National Prohibition Re-
form. There are now 100000
members. The Crusaders, another
national organization committed to
the cause Of temperance through
changes in the dry laws, were in
corporated in January 1880, with
Frederick Clark of Cleveland as
commander. The membership soon
spurted to about a million and o
quarter.
Rise Of Repeal Forces.
The repeal fight soon began to
roll up impressive results. In 1880
decocrats of twelve states and
republicans in five states included
repeal planks in their platforms.
Two wet governors, Ely of Massa-
chusetts and Cross of Connecticut,
were elected, as were 70 anti-pro-
hibitionists in the house and four
in the senate at Washington.
Nicholas Murray Butler, the late
Dwight w. Morrow, Cardinal
Hayes, and General Pershing were
only few Of the prominent men
who had declared themselves
against the existing law.
Then on June 6, 1882, John D.
Rockefeller Jr. reversed his stand
on prohibition in a letter to Butler.
Franklin D. Roosevelt hailed the
shift Of sentiment. Alfred p.
Sloane, another former dry, chang
ed his mind too. So did Charles
Edison, son Of the inventor. Jouett
Shouse, former chairman of the
executive committee Of the demo-
cratic national committee, succeed
ed Henry II. Curran as president
of the Association Against the Pro-
hibition Amendment. Walter p.
Chrysler headed the Crusaders
'vlctory-fund" campaign. Mr. Roose-
welt endorsed the wet plank Of the
democratic party. And the stage
was soon set for abolition Of the
most controversial piece Of legis-
lation In the history Of the ma
ton.
