Gasch Asks Review
OF Buckley Case
By Appeals Court
Double Jeopardy Ruling
By Judge Newman in
Police Court Attacked

Assistant Corporation Counsel
Oliver Gasch yesterday filed petit
ton in the Court of Appeals ask
ing it to review the reopened driving
while-drunk case against NJ Edward
Buckley, jr,, an attorney. Judge
Hobart Newman of Police Court
upheld on June % plea of former
or double jeopardy made by Mr..
Buckley. which automatically ruled
out trial on the reopened charge,
unless a court higher than Police
Court decides otherwise.
In upholding the Buckley plea,
Judge Newman reversed a ruling
made earlier by Judge George D.
Nelson of Police Court. who held
that Mr. Buckley must stand trial
on the reopened charge.
In the petition filed yesterday,
Assistant Corporation Counsel
Gasch alleged Judge Newman erred
in reversing Judge Nelson's ruling
and not accepting it as the ruling
of the Police Court
The petition also alleged that
Judge Newman erred in ruling that
trial on the reopened charge would
constitute double jeopardy.
The original driving -while-drunk
charge was preferred last July and
nolle pressed in october when Judge
Newman heard Mr.. Buckley's plea
of guilty of driving on the wrong
side of the street and fined him $25
on the latter charge. The case was
reopened in January. Mr. Buckley
in his plea of former or double
jeopardy maintained the driving
while-drunk charge had been taken
care of in the charge of driving
on the wrong side of the street.

All Dupont Circle Tenants
Asked 10 Move by July IS

The Government, in need of addi-
tional office space at once, has
rented the 500-room Dupont Circle
Apartments Building on Connecticut
avenue at Dupont Circle and the
management has asked tenants to
vacate by July Is.
B. w. Anderson, manager OF the
building, circulated printed letter
70 his tenants telling them I'VE are
in a time of great emergency and
are meeting our portion of it to the
best of our ability. The sacrifices
we are making for the national de-
tense we are compelled, of course,
under the circumstances, to ask you
to share

Grafton as a hotel and apartment
building would bring in many
thousands of dollars more than
rental to the Government for an
office building.
While it was not definitely known
which agencies would move to the
building, it was rumored that parts
of the Federal Bureau of Investi-
CATION and the Federal Housing Ad-
