By the Assoclated Press. CLEVELAND, Ohio, January 19.— i Pive years ago there were seven Porello brothers who worked for “Big Joe” and John Lonardo, the corn sugar “kings” of Cleveland. Today the Lonardos are dead, shot fzm their throne. Four of the Porel- 165, too, have had costly funerals—and | imurder reached into the second gen- | j eration the other day with the shooting of Angelo Porello at Buffalo. John, Ottavio and Angelo, all uncles jof the Angelo killed at Buffalo, are the j only surviving brothers of the clan gen- erally credited with toppling the Lo- nardos from their throne. Joe, James, Raymond and Rosario, the other four brothers, are dead. Like other dynasties of gangdom that grew luxuriant in “come easy, go easy” days, waxed prosperous for a day, en- joyed homes in rich suburbs, and wielded power, the house of Porello is| withering away. Feud Began in 1927. Seeds of the feud that was to give Jthe vicinity of Woodland avenue and 110th street the name of “Bloody Cor- ner,” were sown October 13, 1927, when “Big Joe” and John Lonardo were slain {in_a barber shop. Police never found iron-clad proof as to who did the killing, but the barber shop was owned by Angelo Porello, one of the original seven brothers. Once workers for the Lonardos, the Porellos now took over the supplying of corn sugar, the raw material, to bub- bling stills hiden away in cellars, attics land back rooms. 'They adopted the | trappings of power—flashy clothes, big motor cars, showy funerals. The latter came soon enough. First was “Black Sam” Todaro, only a lieu- tenant. Joe Lonardo’s son and cousin were sentenced for life for that, but Wwitnesses were scarce at a retrial and they were freed. First Brother Slain. a Next was Joe Porello, first of the brothers, and his bodyguard, Sam Ti- locco. They met death July 5, 1930, less than three years ago. Echoes of this double murder had scarcely died away when James Porello was killed as he was buying meat in a butcher shop. Two men charged with the murder were acquitted and police were unable to find Dominic Lonardo, only surviving brother of “Big Joe.” In the meantime Rosario Porello had been dwelling -in safety behind prison bars for carrying a gun, but he had less than a year to live after the prison ©*His Geatts wie'p Killing leath was part of a triple at the same corner where theplonlxdos and James Porello had met death, With him in the cigar store was an- other Porello, Raymond, and a hench- man, Dominic Gueli. Four Porellos were accounted for, and every survivor feared for his life. Two Move to Buffalo. The only conviction was that of In the meantime the depression was at work.

When a din was heard emanating from the 200-pound, 6-foot prisoner’s cell, they rushed to the scene prepared for trouble.

Reviews and News of Washington's Theaters. By E. deS. MELCHER “No Shaki ™ Say Lunt and Fontanne.

And the dachshund, you know—we have two new dachshunds. You haven't seen them, have you? You must see the dachshunds.” “Thank you, I should like to.” "‘{:he play is wonderful, isn't it?” “Do you think I have added weight?” “A little.” “I haven't. But I look it. Do you think I look it?” “I'm afraid so.” Miss Fontanne came in just then --radiant in a soft white dressing gown. She said: “Did you see what that man from The Star said about Noel's trousers?” “No,” said Mr. Lunt. “He said that they don’t fit him very well.” Mr. Lunt looked worried. Turned to his now also worried interviewer. “Mr. Coward will be angry at that,” he said. Mr. Coward came into the room neatly robed in a black and white dressing gown with a white mono- gram on his chest. He said: “Now let’s talk about what lines we are going to cut out. They want us to cut out that part about ‘wimple.’” ‘The stage manager came in then, ,” he saild, “we must cut hat about a wimple.” “Do you know what a wimple is?” asked Mr. Lunt. “It’s something you drink out of, isn’t it?” said the stage manager. “No, it is not,” said Mr. Coward, who incidently had just returned from Mount Vernon, which he found much to his liking and where he had learned considerable about American history which he had not known before. “It is something you wear on your head.” m‘l‘he stage manager looked un- Dpy. “Must we really cut out that busi- ness about the vdm?leT' sald Mr. Lunt. *“No,” said Mr. Coward—and turn- ing to the interviewer who was quietly dying in the corner, hoping that the subject of the trousers would not be brought up—he said positively, “We are not going to cut out a syllable.” “Good,” said the interviewer. * ok kX Somewhat later during the inter- view, when the play had begun and Mr. Coward was walting for his cue in his dressing rcom—and after he had hitched up his trousers three more inches, “That's what was the matter with them,” he said, after the first storm had broken—he was - most polite about it, and had only made the person who had said it feel moderately miserable—the sub- Ject of “Cavalcade,” the film version which is now being shown on Broadway, was mentioned. “I think it is the best film I have ever seen,” said Mr. Coward, “and— it has nothing to do with me. They did an extraordinary piece of work on it. And they did something quite new, you know.” “What was that?” “They took a play and used it word for word. They've never done that before.” On the wall, above Mr. Coward's dressing table, hung a large picture of a group of people. Autographed names stuck out on all sides of it, and down below was written: “The “Cavalcade’ .” Signed “Winfield Sheehan.” Mr. Coward seemed quite proud of the picture. It was neatly framed in black. “Nice of them, wasn't it,” he said, Mr. Coward then quietly and amusingly denied that his plays came sall in a minute.

Hy the Associated Press. NEW HAVEN, Conn., January 19.— Prof. Herbert S. Jennings, Johns Hop- kins University eticist and zoologist, sald last night development, “con= material is “developing instead of de- generating.” g et At e g al le University. “The activities of the ma- terial which the physicist okserves, we are told (in some quarters at least), are running down,” he said. “The end that is in sight is a universe of diffused particles, in which nothing occurs but a faint quivering. * * *” On the other hand, he sal ical material is developing. * changes are seen daily in the develop- | h; ment-of an egg into an adult. They occur in a great historical sequence, extending through the ages. * * *” Many physicists are abandoning theo- ries that processes of upbuilding are not overbalanced by compensating break- down and the doctrine of the infinity of the universe is again popular in physics, he said. “If this turns out to be the case,” he added, “blological development may continue without end.” FLYING: TEACHER JAILED ON PLANE THEFT CHARGE PAINT GROUP ELECTS Allentown Man Heads Association at Philadelphia Ieoung: PHILADELPHIA, January 19 (#).— ‘The Master Painters and Decorators’ As- sociation, concluding their 45th annual Stove 8.Egg Sizes ‘This high-grade bituminous soal is mc‘hmleuly treated at the mines—prev Try a ton of this enting dun! if you don't re- dustless coal—see ceive better results at a great savings in fuel costs.
