Atlanta, Nov. 4.-Judgc "AndyS
Calhoun, of the city criminal court,
is still considering whether he will
give ten-day Jail sentence to Attor-
ney Tillou Won Nunes, who "sassed''
the court yesterday afternoon.
The case involved what that of a
negro charged with stealing a bicycle,
and Won Nunes didn't approve of the
way Judge candy" let police officers
testify. He aired his views several
times, and at last said:
"By admitting that testimony, your
honor, you have lowered the dignity
of this court"
"Young man, am considering
sending you to Jail for ten days." re-
turned the judge, quietly. 81 haven't
made up my mind yet"
Attorney Won Nunes sat down sud
denly and no more was heard from
him during the progress of the trial.
The court has not yet announced its
decision as to the Jail sentence.
