Petitions for a change of venue for
the Douberly brothers which were
filed in Superior Court by G. Ander
son Ulmer, defense attorney, were
withdrawn yesterday when Judge
Rourke refused to certify the papers

by the court that the defense had
failed to establish that the Douberlys
were in danger of lynching or "any
other violence,” as is required for a
change of venue, and their plea that
a fair and impartial trial could not
be obtained here because of high local

granting the petition.

three now under indictment for the

TOMMY DORSEY
Tommy Dorsey, world’s greatest
trombone player and conductor of
the band which opens at Tybrisa to
morrow night will make a trium
phant entry into Savannah tomorrow
at 12:30, when a delegation of citi
zens and a fleet of shiny new Ford
V 8 cars furnished through the cour
tesy of the Georgia Motors Corpora
tion will meet him at the Union Sta
tion.
After a parade, in full uniform and
a brief period for lunch Dorsey and
his entire organization will broadcast
for a halt hour beginning at 2:30
over WTOC.
Following the broadcast, the band
will be carried to Savannh Beach to
open there with the first dance pro
gram under his direction.
Because of the fact that at the
close of his engagement Dorsey goes
to Dallas to replace Fred Waring on '
the Ford radio program, there is un
usual interest and Mr. Theron Bures, ’
vice president of the Georgia Motor.
Corporation has decided to give him
a warm welcome.
Tonight at Tybrisa Henry Bia-gini
plays his fare veil pregram at the
college tag dance dedicated to the
University of Virginia and a larg*
crowd is expected.
TALMADGECHARGE
IS DENIED BY PERRY
Governor Talmadge’s statement in
Mcßae on July 4 that ths old Geor
gia Public Service Commission made
no effort to reduce freight rates on
cotton and watermelons was branded
as “absolutely false” yesterday by
James A. Perry, uosted chairman of
the commission and candidate for
re-election.
Talmsdge charged in his Fourth of
July speech:
“I talked with members of the
old commission about the rates on
cotton and watermelons and plead
with them to do something about it.
They said the rates were reasonable
and they cot:ld do nothing about it.
We then held a little hearing and put
in five men who could and would re
duce the rates.”
“There is not a word of truth in
either of the Governor’s declara
tions,” Perry said.
