Modern Frankie and Johnnie play shut by Chicago police
The Adelphia theater in Chicago closed tonight after a two week run of John Kirkland's Frankie and Johnnie amid claims of indecency. Police Commissioner William Russell led the action with municipal authorities. Attorneys argued the work was a simple 1849 romance inspiring writers like Eugene Field and Carnaby. An injunction failed and a matinee proceeded amid the dispute as producers planned a move to another city. Tractors imported to the United States in 1928 totaled 57 790 units valued at more than 37 700 000.
