The motion picture "My Son John," the story of a traitor who goes across the screen dodging its point with all the deftness of suspense yarns. Plotwise, a bright shy boy goes into government work and becomes a top Soviet spy. Back home for a rare visit, he mentions a speech he is to make to the graduating class of his old Alma Mater and the content of that speech gets him into a dozen angry arguments on communism with his folks, who are charter members of the church and the Legion, and inspire each other with lingo from the gridiron.
