investigation is expected to begin some
time Monday. Brewers bond, it is
said, was first set at $500.
Brewer .was arrested in Birmingham
several days ago, while attempting to
enter a house, being transferred later
to the county jail on warrant issued
by w. d. Watkins, clerk in Judge III.
B. Abernethy's court. Bond, fixed at
$500, was made for the prisoner by
Robert Montgomery, Jr., his attorney,

Davis Opens War On Delinquent
Election Officers

Election officers who failed to show
up at their precincts as required by
law will be cited for appearance before
the grand jury and prosecuted in Grim
inal court, Solicitor Jim Davis warned
Friday. 1t is estimated that more than
IS persons will be involved in such &C
tions and upon conviction viii be sub
ject to fine or Imprisonment, or both.
Solicitor Davis made it plain that he
did not include among violators of the
law those election officers who were
prevented from serving because of sick
ness, as they are automatically excused.
His efforts would be directed, he said,
at those who regard their obligations as
citizens lightly and are unwilling to do
their part in seeing that elections are
properly conducted, after being appoint
ed representatives of the state to do so.
He added that many complaints had
reached his office from voters who were
handicapped last Tuesday by the alb
sence of several officers at the various
polling places.

is q far cry from the crude. clumsy
sweater of former years to the light,
smart "pull-over" of today, which has
become indispensable to the sportsman,
vacations seeker and traveller.
The knitted jacket used to be slipped
son merely to keep warm, but, as with a
muffler, it is worn nowadays for its
convenience and picturesqueness, and
also for its ruggedly athletic look. OF
the two types of knitted jackets, the
coat style and the pull-over, the last
named is more in favor, because it is
lighter and has smarter snugger lines.
1t has the disadvantage, considerable
or negligible, as one may regard it, of
tousling the hair, scraping the nose
and tweaking the ears when it is drawn

peels it off.
