Pitts Plea Puts Light

light in a petition for writ of er-

yesterday.

half Of G. Bryan Pitts in connec-
ton with a suit in Municipal
Court in which Harold H. Shaller
obtained judgment against the
American Security and Trust
Company, trustee for $3.50 rep,
resenting three interest coupons
In hands Of the trustee.
Counsel asked leave to inter-
vene and show Pitts ownership
Of the bonds and to challenge
jurisdiction Of the lower court
because Of the involvement of the
bonds in several District Supreme
Court suits. The petition for
leave to intervene was denied.
It is revealed that while in

there is no such provision in the
