CLANCY IS CANTANKEROUS IN POLICE COURT
POLICE HEAD ARGUES WITH COUNSEL
AS BEER VIOLATION CASE IS AIRED
ADDRESSES BALL CLUB SECRETARY: “YOU PEOPLE
... SEEM TO BE UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT
?• YOU ARE BIGGER THAN THE LAW. ’ ’
Sharp and heated interchange of
remarks between Police Captain John
J. Clancy and defense counsel mark
ed the arraignment in police court
this morning of two defendants ar
rested last night at the Municipal
stadium in connection with police re
striction of consumption of beer in
the baseball bleachers.
Docketed for trial at the hearing
were George Gulick, clerk, at the beer
and confectionery stand under the
grandstand, and Harry Ashton, col
ored. Mr. Gulick was charged with
permitting beer to be carried into the
bleachers and Ashton was charged
with carrying beer to the bleacher
seats.
Clancy Testifies
The cases against the two men
were made by Traffic Sergeant Wil
liam L. Dotson and Officer J. R-
McGrath. After Sergt. Dotson had
outlined the case, however, Captain
Clancy came down from his cus
tomary seat alongside Acting Record
er J. C. Hester, stating he would like
to testify.
Attorney I. Clinton Helmly, Jr., had
appeared as counsel for the two de
fendants. Captain Clancy upon tak
ing the stand looked in Mr. Helmly's
direction and declared “you people
aeem to be under the impression that
you are bigger than the law—you and
all of the rest of them think they
can run things at the ball park to
suit themselves.”
The police captain said not only
his officers, but he himself, had gone
out to the ball park and made it clear
that beer purchased under the grand
stand must not be carried away from
the purchase place. These instructions
had been ignored, the captain went
on.
Captain Clancy testified he had
been informed there were a number
of drunks “stumbling into people” last
night at the ball game. Mr. Helmly
asked Captain Clancy If he would
not tell the court that the police de-

A
f partment had refused to provide a
i letter which could be posted at the
- ball park beverage stand, warning
t beer drinkers not to carry their pur-
- chases away from the concession.
1 Refused Letter
The captain retorted that he had re
i fused this letter because it was un
necessary and it was up to those in
5 authority at the ball park to obey
: the law without the aid of any writ-
• ten communications from police for
• the benefit of fans.
i Mr. Helmly in cross questioning
> Sergt. Dotson withdrew admission
I froih that officer that the policeman
• had heard Mr. Gulick warn patrons
last night not to carry bottles of beer
away from the drink stand. The of-
i fleer also admitted that it would be
• impossible even for several policemen
to keep a close enough watch oves the
I crowd of patrons at the beer stand
i at times last night to determine ac-
• curately if any were taking bottM of
• beer away.
s Captain Clancy asked the court to
revoke the license of the operators of
I the beer stand.
William Norris, interested financial-
• ly, in the operation of the concession,
i testified, promising a strict observ
! ance of the law and a hearty co-op
; eraton in the future with police.
I “The only reason I am not going
’ to revoke this beer license and fine
i the defendants is because the viola
tions charged are in conflict with po
’ lice regulations and not infractions of
! a city ordinance,” said Judge Hester.
■ The court warned that if 100 per cent
co-operation was not forthcoming in
. the future from the beer stand con
i cessionalre speedy punishment would
; result in the police court. The cases
against the two defendants were dis
-1 missed but Captain Clancy announced
■ the police department had confiscated
; the 36 cases and nine Ebtues of beer
’ removed from the beer stand when
1 the docket charges were made last
■ night.

Bull street, was dismissed when he
was acquitted in Police Court by
Judge Joseph C. Hester this morning
of the charge of assault and battery
by allegedly severely beating little
Betty Brinson, age seven, adopted
child of the Jones couple. x

A. Moore, policewoman sergeant, who
investigated; Detectives W. B. Gatt
man, and D. B. Graham; Mrs. W. R.

HEATABATES
(CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1)
Arrival of the temperate weather
is checking one of the heaviest death
tolls ever run up in the United States
during a heat wave. Nearly 3,100 peo
ple have died. That total, added to the
number of people who were killed by
the harsh winter and spring floods,
brings the number of deaths directly
attributed to the weather to more
than 4,300 for the first half of 1936.
Midwest Gets Rain
Rain in the midwest toe ay halted
one of the most appalling death toils
ever attributed to a heat wave. Med
ical authorities in many stricken areas
reported the heaviest fatalities since
the dreadful “flu” epidemic of 191 b.
Incomplete reports plaled the death
toll at nearly 3,000 in the midw-est.
In Minnesota, almost 600 persons
lost their lives during the week ana
a- half siege. Michigan had more than
500 victims and Illinois came close I
to this figure. In Chicago alone 234 I
lives were claimed by the heat.
Temperatures fell rapidly, however,
as cooling showers drenched the heat !
zone. Central Michigan reported t.
30-degree drop in the space of a few
hours as did Minnesota and other
states in the farm belt.
A violent thunder storm brought
relief to millions of New Yorkers. A
near cloudburst accompanied the
electrical storm.
The metropolitan area felt the full
wrath of the storm. Hail fell in north
ern New Jersey and several buildings
in the territory were struck by lignt
ning. Power and light lines in Long
Island and Westchester went out of
commission where poles were blown
or knocked over in the storm.
> pagne was used was that of Miss Jane
. E. Henderson and Frederick William
, Symons, which took place in Savan-
• nah, Feb. 11, 1873.
: Mrs. Sturtevant states that she will
; tender the champagne for the chris
tening, because her grandfather, Colo-
i nel William Symons, took an active
i part in the early life of Savannah,
, serving as an aiderman of the city
: under Mayor Richard Wayne and at
a later date as Port Warden of the
■ city.
