dent has proved that he has the
spirit and the ability to measure

All the time before | had never

for the White Military Police in

the highest praise for that group
who went to look after the dis
turbance up around the corner of

afternoon.
Up there a Negro soldier who
had took on heep too much
"allcy water had been raising a
disturbance for almost four hours
threatening civilians, cussing am;
raising hell, and refusing to take
the advise of his comrades Wh1
tried to show him the error of his
ways and get hird off the street
When the Military Police finally
came he made at them with a long

his teeth like mad dog.
With guns drawn clubs in hand
they kept him at bay until MS
comrades came in numbers and
overpowered him put him in tht
