About the Buffers
A lady moviegoer takes me to
task for saying that Ernest Cos
sart, in Accent on Youth" at the

come along on the screen since
Charles Laughton'S RuggleS.
What about Eric Blore in "Top

If may say so, madam, I still

wright with some droll fol-de-rolS,
such as his dance with the master,
and little by-plays that make it a
witty cameo.
Now about Eric Blore. Watch
his Characterization carefully in
"Top Hat" and you will observe
that in at least two of his scenes,
where his features should be Sc
we're and deadly serious when
spouting his humorous speeches,
Mr.. Blore lets a smile tricgle
through. To be sure not much
of q smile, but enough. This is
absolute treason to the So-called
"dead pan" tradition. Zasu Pitts
would never be where she is If
she were guilty Of it. and Edward
Everett Horton is the master Of
controlling any desire to laugh at
the wrong moment. Farceurs
must keep their muscles in COM
plete control.
Reverting again to Flogdell. I
think the playwright gets as much
credit for the butler as the actor.
Since Forrest Orr of the National
Players, by carefully following the
authors directions, managed to
get almost as many laughs for
the part as CosSart did on the
screen.

It was called THE Night of Jan

The novelty comes in the fact
that audiences enter to find the
stage set as in Trial of Mary

from among the regular custom
ers. At the end of the third act
they are asked to render a YER

WEAKNESS or JURIES

Weakness of the jury system as it op-
crates IN these days, is again exposed by
the verdict rendered in the federal court
at Malone, New York, acquitting one Ar
thur Dutch Schulz Flegenheimer of
evading taxes.
Flegenheimer Is notoriously known as
former big time beer boss in the
Bronx, and Is categoried as public en-
emy' by the government, which has,
however, been unable to pin anything in
eliminating upon him.
A packed courtroom appauded the
statement of Judge Frederick T Bryant,
when the verdict was announced. 1T is
a verdict like this the Judge said, that
shakes the confidence of law-abiding
people in the integrity of iuries It is
apparent that you have reached a YER
dict based not on the evidence but for
other reasons"
1t would be interesting to know what
those "other reasons are. Was it fear
of reprisals from gangland, with which
the defendant is admittedly connected
Was it crossing of palms by friends
of the defendant or his counsel?
Whatever the reason it Is quite appar-
ent from the courts statement that some
thing was quite wrong and that federal
grand jury Investigation is necessary.
On all sides we hear violent condem-
nation of parole boards and others who
are lenient with criminals, yet how often
do citizens who consider themselves
law-abiding and outstanding members
of their communities become weak
kneed when they are called to do jury
duty?
The fact that spectators applauded the
statements of the judge indicates that
there were law-abiding citizens who re-
sented the verdict of their fellow-citizens
and gives support to the courts cOnten-
tion that other reasons than the evidence.
presented, prompted the acquittal
1t is unfair for citizens to condemn
courts, judges, attorneys, prosecutors
and the police, when, too often, the cit
izens themselves are at fault by render
inS decisions such as this one.
Perhaps some lawyer can tell us if the
jurors are liable for perjury. They took
an oath to render decision on the evil
dence presented and their verdict indi-
Gates they did not live up to their oath.
Coming nearer home in this jury bus
iness, the juryman at Winterhaven who
frankly stated he would not bring in a
conviction until provision was made for
payment of jurymen. is probably sur
prised that we have "Reds" and ''radi-
Gals" in this country. Which is worse,
an out and out radical who lets all know
how he stands as regards his govern
ment, or the citizen who refuses to do
his duty unless he is paid for it?
