ENFORCING LAW IN PHILADELPHIA CAUSES FURORE Exclusive Clubs, Legion Homes Have Liquor Confiscated. Thi* lx tb .ronl of a xeriox of throe rlirl dexrriblnr the law enforeement arllrltlrx of Tomuel B. Srbofleld. director of public **fetv of rbiladelpbia. BV PAUL COMLY FRENCH I nlted Prexs Staff Correxpondent PHILADELPHIA, March 19—It was not until Lemuel W. Schofield, director of publicity safety, personally raided the Manufactarers’ Club that the city council took cognizance of the situation here. The director was a member of the dub, which listed hundreds of the social and financial leaders of the city on Its rolls. After discovery of the liquor in a room, which he said was fitted up as an old-fashioned bar, he phoned city hall and Instructed William B. Mills, superintendent of police, and James Taylor, assistant superintendent, to come to the club, and directed that several

patrols be summoned to confiscate the seized liquor. Immediately after the liquor had been taken from the clubhouse at Broad and Walnut streets, in the heart of the business section, Schofield tenders his resignation as a member. At a hearing the following morning. when the club steward was charged with ownership of the liquor. Schofield announced that he was considering obtaining the names of the individual owners of the liquor and issuing warants for their arrest. Then, almost on the heels of the Manufacturers’ Club raid, police of ♦he Twelfth and Pine streets station raided the ultra-exclusive Philadelphia Club and confiscated thousands of dollars’ worth of choice liquors. The raid caused a furor. Never before had the portals of the club been crossed by other than a member or the guest of a member. Membership came by birth, and money could not buy admittance, nor could it place one without the proper ancestry on its roster. The .steward was held by police and again Schofield announced that he was considering whether to issue warants for the real owners of the seized liquors. “It’s poor sportsmanship, to say the least,” he declared at the hearing, “for the members of the club to allow this setward to be the goat.” During the course of Schofield’s official career, hundreds of homes were raided. Many of the persons protested that they had made home

brew and wines for their own consumption. They indignantly denied that they had ever sold any. Moreover, members of the police "mystery squad” entered the headquarters of the Howard McCall post of the American Legion in West Philadelphia and confiscated several hundred bottles of what post officials said was near beer. More Legion homes and clubs frequented by the foreign bom were raided and liquor confiscated. Organizations commenced to protest to the mayor and the council. Church groups stood solidly behind the director and he emerged after each raid or clash over strict enforcement of the Sunday law as the victor. Finally a resolution was introduced into council by William W. Roper, Princeton football coach and Germantown councilman, demanding an investigation into the legality of the police raids. The resolution was tabled. PLAN STREET CHANGES Board of Works Passes Resolution for Three Improvements. Resolutions for three street improvements were adopted by the board of works Wednesday. They included: Improvements of Ogden street from Sixteenth to Seventeenth street, estimated cost, $4,410; McKinley street from Stanley avenue to Allen avenue, estimated cost, $663.75; Twentythird street from Montcalm street to Harding street, estimated cost $16,997.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

FRED STEWART TO BE GUEST AT THE CIVIC Comedy “Find” of Stuart Walker to Play Important Role in “Holiday” for George Somnes. AS a friendly gesture toward George Somnes of the Civic Theater. Fred Stewart is to come up from Cincinnati to play the part of Ned Seton in the Civic Theater production of Philip Barry’s comedy, "Holiday,” opening Saturday night. It is really vacation time for Stewart because he has just closed a long engagement as actor and stage manager for Stuart Walker at the Taft Auditorium in Cincinnati. He gives his services partly out of compliment to Somnes and partly because he says, in looking back, that he enjoyed playing this role as much as any other in his recent experience on the stage.

To those persons who saw “It s a Wise Child,” when that play visited English’s not so long ago, Fred Stewart's characterization of the young man will be pleasantly remembered and the fact that this is a somewhat similar part, promises an amusing characterization. At the close of the season, a Cin-

It seems that in addition to frequent stage appearances, the young man has acted as stage manager, in - dulged his flair for scenic novelties, designed costumes, composed verse, experimented with derelict motor cars, helped amateur producing groups and occasionally eaten and sometimes slept.
