such a move was without precedent.
However, he instructed the jury
that if it's members read the news
papers to disregard and wipe from
your minds" any of his reported
remarks.
In absence of the jury, Judge
Yankwich late yesterday denied a

dict of acquittal, excoriated Hunt

ficient evidence to sustain a guilty
verdict.

17-year-old Delight Jewett from
Denver to Los Angeles for immoral
purposes.
Mrs. Elizabeth Peters, one OF
the four defendants with Hunt,
was called as the first defense wit
ness. She is charged with con-
spiracy to violate the Mann act.
