Jury IS ORDERED
IN SECOND TRIAL
Colts Reckless Driving Case
to Be Tried Again
Thursday.

The reckless driving case of William
H. Colts, colored. which was carried to
the United States Supreme Court from
Police Court year ago to determine
whether the defendant was entitled to
trial by jury. is scheduled for trial the
second time in the low court Thursday
before a jury.
Colts was arrested by Policeman Miles
znamenacek on o street southeast July
1929, and Judge John P. Mcmahon SUBJ
sequently refused the mans demand for
Jury trial. convicted him and sentenced
him to 30 days in Jail. Attorneys for
Colts took the case to the District Court
of Appeals, where the Police Court
judgment was reversed The District,
realizing the cost of hearing similar
cases before iuries. as well as different
charges which were affected by the rul-
ing, asked the Supreme Court for final
decision
The tribunal on November "a, 1880,
handed down an opinion in which the
Appellate Court was upheld They
ordered that another trial be given
Colts in Police Court, and this time
by jury.
Today Attorney Louis Whitestone
counsel for Colts. filed a motion to
ouash the case. stating that the court
arraignment papers are illegal because
they charge the man with more than
one offense. Whitestone contends that
the wording Of the papers. which ac-
cuses Colts of driving recklessly, at
an unreasonable speed, and without re-
gard for life and property" Is too gen.
eral. The attorney said that the charge
in reckless driving cases has been made
more specific since the Colt case origi-
mated.
Judge Ralph Given is expected to rule
on the defense motion before the trial
opens.
