ing for the remaining five weeks that
involved S130. Witnesses testified to
the plaintiffs musical ability as DEM
onstrated in other bands that he had
played with. Leader CianfoEi stated
thai the plaintiff had developed criti-
cism of the band by his inefficient play
ing, consequently he gave Chelli the
choice of being reduced in his position
or be discharged. Mayor Philip 2.
Baker, while being examined by o. l.
Black well, attorney for the defense,
was interrupted by Attorney Thomas

AT the heighth of the wind storm that
suddenly developed early Tuesday eve
ming of last week a cry of distress was
heard from the sound at the Holly
Beach Yacht club house that caused
Morgan P. Hunter, Edward McGinty
and Leslie Hallen to quickly man a
boat for the spot that the cry was heard
from. They located a small row boat
with a lone woman In it who had lost
control of the frail craft and was In dan
ger of being upset by the heavy sea-.
The rescuers, with considerable risk to
themselves, managed TO reach the
- woman and tow the boat to safe
ty. The rescued woman was given the
hospitality of the club until she had
recovered sufficiently to return home.
She refused to give her name and resi-
dence.
