THREE GIVEN
SENTENCES TO
PENITENTIARY

Three men were given penltet-
tiary sentences and two county Jail
terms by Judge r. D. McPherrin
In superior court Friday.
Jay Merritt was sent to the peni-
tentiary after pleading guilty to
morals charges involving boys in
the country area near FL Centre.
Forgery convictions earned peni-
tentjary sentences for o. j. Ring
and John Herbert. The court re-
commended a minimum sentence
for Ring Ramon Perez. charged
with robbery, was transferred to
the juvenile court while his bro
ther Frank applied for probation
after pleading guilty.
A. Kerkorian will spend one year
in the county jail for operating as
a produce dealer in Imperial VAL
ley without state license.
1T is time the court protected
the growers in Imperial Valley
from persons unwilling to comply
with the state laws" Judge R. D.
McPherrin said from the bench.
The bad checks given to growers
for their products would have been
impossible for a man with a IL
cense because the state agricul-
ture department does not issue
licenses TO men not capable of pay
ing for their purchases. This prac-
tice must stop"
Between $400 and $500 in bad
checks were involved in the case.
William Anderson and John
Masters will serve from one to
five years in the penitentiary after
pleading guilty to driving an auto
mobile without the consent of the
owner.
Probation was granted Ben PEN
tecost Filipino, after he pleaded
guilty to charges of failure to pro-
vide for his family.
