PAGE EIGHT 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.

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.

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.
