United Press Staff Correspondent

 The charge placed against the unemployed laborer, Roy Yost. was disorderly conduct. He said he had been out of work two or three months and that he believed the best way to get job was to ere ate some excitement and then cash in. The plan didn't work so well.
 Yost took no chances on getting hurt during his aerial act. He carried two parachutes and dummy up the tall Trylon - a climb of about 40 minutes-when he sneaked into the Fair last night.

 Under cross-examination by U. s. Attorney General Irving M. Kauf- mann it was ascertained from MT. Phillips that he was a director of the New Haven firm during a period when its president, who was also at that time treasurer, was under fire by his partner and was also ln- debted to the company to the ex- tent of $2O1 ,00O.
 Practically all the early morning period was spent by Kaufmann in hurling questions at Phillips relative to his knowledge of what took place in the Jones company and what his actions as director of the firm were throughout the entire con- troverSy.
