WILLIAMS GETS
EIGHT MONTHS
In LOCAL JAIL
PLEADED GUILTY TO CHARGE
OF BREAKING AND ENTER
ING IN CRIMINAL COURT
THIS MORNING

Charles Williams pleaded
guilty in criminal court this
morning to a charge of breaking
and entering with intent to COM
nit a misdemeanor and was SEN
fenced to eight months in the
county Jail at hard labor.
Williams was arraigned Satur-
day and entered the same plea.
When quizzed by Judge Harris he
denied being guilty of the crime.
The Judge said he could not I'M
derstand the plea of guilty and
the subsequent assertion Of not
guilty.
Attorneys George G. Brooks
and Allan B. Cleare, Jr., were
told by the judge to hold con-
ference with the prisoner relative
to his plea. This they did and
afterward withdrew the plea and
stated the prisoner would go to
trial.
The trial was set for this morn
ing and jury Of Is summoned
for the case. When the prisoner
was arraigned this morning he
stated he had decided, if the
court would permit him, to enter
a plea of breaking and entering
with intent to commit a mis-
deameanor and not go to trial on
charges of theft of a magnetic
from the Porter Dock company.
The judge lectured the prisoner,
telling him that it was within the
power of the court to sentence
him to 10 years in the state
penitentiary. Taking into con-
sideration the circumstances sur
rounding his early life he was in
clined to be lenient, and never be-
lieved in giving a penitentiary
sentence for the first offense. if
it could be legally avoided. He
then named eight months as the
period Of the sentence.
Attorney Cleare then addressed
the court stating that he and his
associate attorney, Mr.. Brooks.
had advised against the prisoner
pleaded guilty. but he insisted
that was his idea and he intended
to do so.
The jury, summoned to hear
and dispose of the case was dis.
charged on order of the court. as
county solicitor Busto said there
were no other cases on the docket
ready for trial.

KEY WEST HAS
UNUSUALLY HOT
DAY ON SUNDAY

Yesterday, July 80, was
considered an exceptionally
hot day, old citizens remark
ing that it was the hottest day
in many years. People meet
ing on the streets complained
of this excessive heat, and all
were of the opinion that the
Thermometer had exceeded
all past records.
And the folks were right.
The remarkably high tempera-
ture reading of 90 degrees
was recorded at the weather
bureau bulletin sent out this
morning.
This seemed so unusual
that The Citizen asked the
bureau if this was correct. M.
F. Kennedy, official in
charge, stated il was a fact
and that 81 was the hottest
temperature recorded in Key
West since 1886.
Some other places were
much hotter. Boston had 90;
Huron, 1O2; Minneapolis, 100;
and several other cities were
equally as torrid. And even
though Key West did show it
hotter than for almost 20
years, a delightful breeze
from the ocean was felt
throughout the day and night.

From the Yakima Herald:

From the Yakima Herald:
Commissioners of Benton county, it
seems to the Herald, have adopted a
sensible policy in deciding to wait
watchfully the advent of beer before
they rush at the new business with a
set of rules and regulations. BY the
time the first furry of buying and
celebration has passed, the commits
sioners will have better knowledge
of what should be done by the county
in setting up control measures. At
worst, the beer business will not raise
cain or wreck the county in the first
few weeks. The Benton commissioners
are saving themselves lot of reneging
by waiting until they can get closer
view of the traffic In beer.

Mr.. Field arrived here Tuesday
to look over his new properties. It
has been indicated that Ace Berry

will be retained in some managerial
capacity. Before the Indiana closed,
he was general manager of all the
properties of the Circle Theater
Company that leased the Circle and
Indiana to Katz and his associates.
II ability and past experiences
amount TO anything my personal
opinion is that Berry should be re-
tanned He is an experienced Show
man from every viewpoint and above
ALL know he is a gentleman with
all of us who review shows.
The leasing of these two theaters
removes Leo M. Rappaport, Herman
Lieber and their associates from the
active management Of local movie
theaters.
These gentlemen still own and
operate Englishs. Mr.. Lieber told
me that no definite date has been
set for the road show season at
English's, but that a number of
bookings have been "pencilad in"
OF course the booking map
changes over night and I can make
no predictions but this I am sure Of
there will be more shows on tour
next season than in the last five
years.
Both Our Houses" the Pulitzer
prize winner. and Dinner at Eight"
should be available for Indianapolis.
The leasing of the Circle and In

sumo that Paramount features will
