An unscheduled and mrehearsed version of Shakespeare's Much Ado About Nothing" was presented this morning in municipal court be- fore an audience that could hardly De called appreciative. The per- formance came in the case of James Harrison, 3l, of 6 Highland avenue, booked at police headquarters on a charge of breach of the peace early Sunday morning, following a dis tlirbaEce.
 According to Harrison's story, sub stantiated in part by Marcel Chag- non and Frank Pine who appeared on the witness stand. he tried to break up a quarrel between two service men at a party sponsored by a local factory. In trying to sep- arate the men, Harrison said, he became involved with Joseph Libby, but the two were separated before hostilities became violent. Harrison explained that he call c policeman. When Patrolman Walter Overton came, Harrison was taken to the station and later released under $50 bond.
 Evidence presented at today's session proved indecisive and Jucge John L. Gaffney suspended sen- tence, but later continued the case until tomorrow when Prosecutor Frederick w. Palomba explained that there were more witnesses sti- to come.
 Shakespearean enthusiasts who sat in on today's performense hoped that the actors would practice over- night. and do a little more prof fessional job in tomorrow's showing.
