Four-Day Silence
Three women, occupants of the
same house, were put on silence
today by Judge Olin Price of Re
corder’s Court. The three women
had called law enforcement offi
cials on two occasions after hav
ing heated arguments and near
fights.
Judge Price extracted a prom
ise from a young woman who was
renting from the other two wo
men that she and her husband
would move from the house by
next Sunday. In addition, he en
joined the three not to speak to
each other in the interim.
The trouble between the two
families was, according to Judge
Price, the result of their living to
gether and will be corrected when
the woman moves out of the
house.
The latest call on local police
to intervene in their argument
came Tuesday and seemed to be
precipitated by non-payment of
a light bill by the tenants.
The landlord’s mother cut off
the lights while the third occu
pant was listening to the radio,
and after some disagreement the
tenant woman was reported to
have slapped the older woman.
Other difficulties between the
occupants of the house stemmed
from the presence of several chil
dren and common use of two
clotheslines, :
Judge Price warned the women
that law officers cannot spend
their time running to settle argu
ments, and placed them on pro
bation until Sunday when the
tenants are supposed to move.
The only other case heard in
Recorder’s Court this morning
was in regard to an accident on
Sunday afternoon at the corner of
Broad and Lumpkin. Bus driver
Will Lamar Leggett was charged
with reckless driving. Leggett's
bus hit the back end of a car
which stopped at the traffic light
at that intersection.
After full testimony from sev
eral witnesses, Judge Price de
termined that the bus driver was
not guilty of recklessness, but had
been careless in operating his ve
hicle.
Since the insurance on the bus
is to cover injuries and damages
and the bus driver admitted re
sponsibility . for the collision,
Judge Price reduced the charge
and fined the driver $25.

“I will strive to the best of my

“Athens has a well planned and ‘

to their new dlrector.
“We will plan our program in
two phases. The first as a “SELF

Athens.
“The other phase as a Mutual
Aid or Mobile Support Unit to
help another neighboring city if it
might be the critical target.
“We hope to get out cards for
everyone to sign offering their as

such as Auxiliary Policemen,
Firemen, Engineers, .Wardens,
Rescue Squads, Nurses Aide, etc.
“We hope the citizens of Ath

see that Clarke County has the de

and to know we are prepared to

It is urged that all interested

make the dinner a success. No

It is also planned to encourage

THE BANNER-HERALD. ATHENS, GEORGIA
(Continued From Page One) l
Brown of Ohio tried to get the ad
vantage back on Taft’s side by his
amendment to leave the Louisiana
delegates out of convention con
tests.
In arguing for this motion, the
Taft leaders fell down flat. They
couldn’t make their case clear.
Eisenhower leaders out-argued
them. Governors Dan Thornton of
Colorado and John Davis Lodge
of Connecticut were particularly
effective. And on top of that, the
roar of the crowd was heavily in
favor of the Eisenhower proposal
to take up the seating of Georgia,
Louisiana and Texas delegates in
that order and settle them one at
a time.
Completely Unprepared
Taft forces were caught com
pletely unprepared for this. The
expectation had been that Taft
leaders in control of convention'
arrangements would have the gal
leries heavily packed with their!
rooters at all times, They just |
weren’t there.
The Eisenhower publicity drive
for “fair play” in the seating of
delegates paid off. Outmarted for
political machine tactics that were
too smooth and too ruthless, the
Taft forces lost on every count.
As Sen. Bricker himself re
marked after the battle, “Talk
about a Taft steamroller: it was !
we who were steamrollered.”
In spite of this initial flattening,
Sen. Taft's leaders were in no
mood to admit they were licked
for good. They pointed out that,
though the total vote on the test |
was 658 to 548 in Eisenhower’s |
favor, majorities in delegations |
from 32 states voted for the Taft- |
Bricker-Brown proposals. Only ;'
21 states showed majorities against
them. “
The importance of this was ||
that it indicated a Taft majority
on the important credentials com
mittee, where the delegate seat
ing contests went next.
Under Gov. Langlie’s rule !
change, Georgia, Louisiana and l
Texas would get no vote on the
committee till after their dele- |
gations had been seated by a con- !
vention floor vote. Even so, Taft
wag left with a 20 to 21 advantage
on the credentials committee.
Not Indicative |
The 110 delegate advantage for
Eisenhower on this first test vote
was also considered no indication
that the general would have this
margin on the first convention
ballot for the nomination.
California’s 70 votes would be
taken away for Gov. Earl Warren.
Michigan was not expected to vote
45 to 1 for Eisenhower, but some
where around 30 to 26. Taft forces
expected to get from 15 to 25 more
than the one lone vote they got
from New York on the test vote, |
over rule changes.
What the test vote did reveal
was Sen. Taft's rock bottom
strength of 548. If he lost all of his
Texas, Georgia and Louisiana
votes, this total would be reduced
by 62 to 486. It indicated he was
from 56 to 118 votes of having the |
namination sewed up, as he had |
so confidently predicted. i
