A proposition was made to the
Board of Directors of the Cham-
ber of Commerce on Monday to go
on record for or against moving
picture shows in Norman on Sun-
day. They accepted the sugges-
tion, and went on record "against"
by a two to one vote.
One argument in favor of the
proposition is that while the ,.e
to-do people in their automobiles
can take their pleasure by kiting
5 around the country in their ma-
' chines Sunday afternoons, breath-
ing the sweet, soft ozone and mak-
ing life one long,' happy dream,

at home, sweltering in their lious^

pavements, with no place to go and
nothing to do; no parks where
they can go themselves and take

whatever. Another argument is
that if Norman doesn't furnish
such amusements, the young folks
and older folks flock to Oklahoma
City to attend the theatres, oi
they must have amusements ol ^
some kind.
On the other hand, it is felt that
whatever other towns may do,
Norman cannot afford to antago-
