Biography
Harry Lipschutz, identified as an International Labor Defense lawyer, was one of nine people arrested when Newark police stopped the Collective Theatre performance of Waiting for Lefty at Ukrainian Hall in June 1935. New Masses reports that none of the nine were initially allowed bail; after spending Saturday and Sunday in jail, eight were released on $25 bail each and Lipschutz was released on parole. The initial unlawful-assemblage accusation was changed to technical infringement of a minor city ordinance. The article establishes actual weekend confinement, but no final disposition or complete detention total.
