Show CONVICTS SEE MOVING PICTURES Joliet, III, Dec. 4. Convicts laughed laugh-ed and applauded like children yesterday yes-terday when the first series of motion mo-tion picture entertainments was given giv-en at the state prison by Warden Murphy. Two comedies and one Alpine Al-pine scene were shown. Only a few of the prisoners ever had seen a motion picture, many of the spectators being long term men who had spent years behind the bars before the "little theaters" came into vogue. Similar entertainments will be sv-en sv-en weekly. Only prisoners with good records will be permitted to view the pictures All films "will be censored and none dealing with, crime will be exhibited. |
