Woodward* white primary nominee for mayor of Atlanta, and William Old- know, former councilman and police commissioner, will be arraigned In the recorder's court tomorrow afternoon on chargee of disorderly conduct aris ing because of rocent charges in local papers. The Accusation. Mr. Woodward was accused of being Intoxicated In a questionable section of the city. It Being alleged that po licemen had helped him into a cab and had failed to make A case against him. He left the city on the day the state ments were published, but returned yesterday. Ho admits having been drunk, and says that he Is sorry that he once more strayed from the paths of strict sobriety, alleging that this was the first offense In a period of three years. His’ Excuse. .. While not condoning hls own o'ffonse, the prospective mayor states that he had been 111. for some time, and thnt hls physician had advised him to drink some corn whisky. He took a drink, and second and third drinks, with tho result that he lost self-control and became completely Intoxicated.

Mr. Woodward had not been back In the city many hours .before no was served with a summons to. appear In court and answer to the charge of vio lating the city ordinance against be ing Intoxicated on the streets.

Itets have been made at largo odds that ho cannot be beaten. In case the primary nomination Is bolted, a lively campaign and a sen sational election .will probably result.
