Fritz Durein Will not have a new
trial on the charge of selling liquor.
Judge Hazen overruled his plea.
Durein was convicted on two counts in
a case brought by Assistant Attorney
General Redden. The jury was out only
a few minutes and determined the guilt
on two counts and that Durein was not
guilty on one count. In pleading for d
