 Dispute Over Trial

 When Superior Court Clerk George Freeman asked for his choice, Johnsky very emphatically stated Jury" His counsel immedi- ately rushed to the accused and apparently instructed him. The ac- cused shook his head and obviously was insisting on jury trial to the amusement of the large number of spectators who crowded the court. Finally the man reluctantly said court" and signs of relief ran through the court from tense spec tatorS and counsel.
