Mrs. Collins had known Green for
some time. She says he has threat

away from her. but, according to Eer

her. After she threw his gun away
she screamed and several men came

Town Fathers Put
Soft Pedal on
Vienna

CLARENON, Va, April II.
The town of Vienna, near
here, was very quiet yesterday,
nothing being heard but the
signing of the welcome breeze
and the cackle of the joyful hen
over a newlaid egg.
The reason.
Well, at the last meeting OF
the town council it was called
to the attention of the town
fathers that there was alto
gether too much going on dur
ing the Sabbath and that the
noisy activities should be
curbed.
AS a result the community
rulers passed an ordinance clos
ing the Koehlein bakeshop,
Billy Vests barber shop, and
Waggoner's garage to all but
tourists, which just about en-
braces all of Vienna's business
district and gay white way.
The ordinance went into
effect yesterday and as a re-
suit customers sat on Mr..
Vests doorstep rubbing stub
BILE boards, while late risers
gazed wistfully, but breadless,
into the windows of Mr.. Koch
lein's dough emporium.

Virginians who cross over the
