THE FIGHTING 9th"
OFFERED AT CAROLINA

The Fighting 69th," current at
the Carolina theatre is a master
piece.
1t is more than just the story of
a famous regiment, though it tells
that story faithfully and we'll. In
a large sense The Fighting seth is
symbolic of all the regiments which
have served under the American
flag. In terms of vigorous drama it
presents the soul of the regiment,
the serious, determined side, and in
so doing brushes aside the usual fur
bellows.
In the making of this picture
something in~describable has been
captured which, in today's cata-
clysm-fearing world, leaves pro-
found confidence in the invincibil-

PAROLE FIXER" MARKS
ROYAL THEATRE BILL

Another intimate page in the an
nails of crime is exposed on the
screen when Paramount's Parole
Fixer' comes today to the Royal
theatre. This is the inside story OF
the racketeers in justice who give
freedom to dangerous criminals fol
"a price. It is based on the startling
revelations of corruption in our
parole system contained in persons
in Hiding" the book by J. Edgar
Hoover.
The parole fixer of the picture Is
a crooked lawyer, played by Paul
McGrath, who accomplishes his UNI
derhanded work by putting financial
pressure on members of the parole
board, and by enlisting u~nsuspectine
society women in his campaigns to
free convicted felons.
Dramatic tension of the story rises
when McGrath orders two of his
puloled convicts to kidnap the
daughter of one of his society bene-
factors. and when the G-Men are
called in to solve the case.
Behind-the-scenes glimpses of the
federal men in action, lend parti-
cular interest to the rapidly-paced
plot. Lots of excitement for action
fans is promised in the clashes be-
tween law and fugitives, and in the
suspenseful development of the
story.
Robert Florey directed Parole
Fixers' with William Henry and
Anthony Quinn in the leading roles.
"Zorro's Fighting Legion" and
News complete the program.

STATUE ERECTED

Repudiated Machine Leaves
Reform Forces Gaudy Re-
hinder Of It's Past

BATON ROUGE, La, March Il
9-The repudiated Long polltlca
machine today left incoming re
form" forces a gaudy reminder o
it's past power by erecting snowy
14.foot statue of the late Huey T
Long over the grave of the slalf
'Kingfish."
Workmen with power drills ant

advent of spring on the state
Towering capitol lawn while the!
rushed into place the statue OF tn
former dictator, which tops an elab
orately carved 21-foot granite bas'
in striking contrast" to the simple
plaque that previously marked the
grave.
The action was taken by Gov
Earl K, Long, who was cast aside
by the electorate a month age
when Sam H. Jones was chosen
governor on a reform platform
which he has promised will be-
come effective on his Inaugural
May IA.
Long planned for the dedication
of his brothers monument mex
month. Long charged during the
recent bitter gubernatorial cam
paign that opposition candidates
proposed removal Of his brothers
grave from the lawn, where finger
ing spotlights illuminate it nightly
from the 33-story capitol which
Huey built and in which he was
shot to death.
The accusations were denied or
ignored by various candidates.
After efforts to memorabilia Long
with contributions which brought
in only $75, the administration leg
islature authorized $50, 600 in 1888
for the statue. 1t was executed IN
New York and sent here recently.
Meanwhile the dying administra-
ton recently drew for the first time
on the $4,000 fund authorized by
the same legislature for another
statue Of Long, in Louisiana's
niche in Statuary hall in Wash

If trash and rubbish along the

visitors, tourists, and especially to

such dumping grounds.
All suburban residents were urged

rise to many complaints as these

both of which are transmitters OF
