If YOU'RE Called
BAD Names DON'T
FIGHT. Tell COPS

Calling man bad names never
justifies disorderiy conduct. although
it may instigate the seriousness of
the offense. Otto Andrich was told in
City Court this morning, when ar
raigned on a charge Of disOrderly
conduct.
Andrich was alleged to have said
He would not take that from any
man." and accompanied the remark
with a vile expression, at the same
time removing his coat as if TO fight
The action occurred near the plant
of tho American Vulcanized Company
yesterday. George Stewart. the COM
planning witness, was declared by
Andrich to have used bad names first
This charge could not be sustained
but in view OF the fact that Andrich
had used the words alleged only
once. the fine was made as light as
possible. Andrich was directed 10
pay 81 and costs.
