The Moline Theater owners oppose a proposed fire safety clause requiring a regular fireman and policeman at all performances, arguing it would cost $500 annually. After a director addressed council, Alderman Gluesing moved to defer action until proprietors meet with the committee. Meanwhile, plans proceed to expand and convert the Industrial Home building into a 1,200 seat opera house slated to begin after the current season, with remodeling costs exceeding $5,000. William Emert, a yardmaster, was fined $5 for assaulting East Moline photographer George Allen, with an appeal planned. A cafe patronage pledge of $5.60 monthly will be required from members for the noon lunch, or 40 cents after New Year’s. tickets may be used for other meals, and prices for la carte remain unchanged.
