CLUE UNCOVERED
BOSTON, April 18. (AP) U. 8.
Marshal John J. Murphy today asked
New York federal authorities to have
Dr. John P. "Jafsie" Condon, ranom
conveyor In the Lindbergh kidnap'
lng case, come here to view a photo
graph believed to be that of the
mysterious "John" who received the
ransom money.
Marshal Murphy declined to divulge
where the photograph had been ob
tained. The request that Dr. Condon
come here was forwarded to the U. S.
marshal at New York.
Dr. Condon gave (50,000 to the
stranger In a New York cemetery in
what was to have been a step toward
ultimate return of the child to its
parents, Mr. and Mrs. Charles A. Lind
bergh. The finding of the child's
body not far from the New Jersey
home of the Lindbergh later disclosed
that whoever received the money
could not -have fulfilled his part of
the bargain.
Frances Dee Star
Picture at Rialto
Timely, universally Interesting and
rlcvh in entertainment quality, "Com
ing Out Party," which opened at the
Rialto theater yesterday, proved to
be a daringly and realistic expose of
the dignified debutante racket, Jesse
L. Lasky, producer, has gone to the
society pages for his material, and
has produced a lavish film that Is
packed with laughs, romance, gayety
and music.
Going behind the scenes, the film
depicts the petty hates and desires of
debutantes and their ambitious, so
cial climbing mothers. Conniving eo
clsl secretaries, ambitions band lead
ers, and "stags" trying to "crash"
coming out parties, are few of the
choice morsels served.
Frances Dee and Gene Raymond
who supply the romantic Interest, are
both attractive and able In their
roles, Alson Sklpworth, Nigel Bruce
and Harry Green are excellent In
their alloted characterizations.
The short subject program with
"Coming Out Party" is above the
average, with a two-reeler, "The
World's Greatest Tftrllls," showing
the most exciting incidents ever
shown in various newsreels In the
past ten or fifteen years. There is
also a cartoon, "A Merry Old Soul"
which was cited by the Academy of
Motion Picture Arts and Sciences as
one of the best shorts produced last
year. A newsreel rounds out the
program.
