Fannin, jr., to nine months impris-
onment, the Navy today formally
completed the series of courts mar
| tial that followed an Investigation

At Norfolk, he will be imprisoned
with two others convicted of part
in what Navy investigators charged

in the North Severn brig early last
winter.
Marine Pfc. Joseph C. OLeary of
Buffalo, N Y, and Seaman 1/c
James E. Childs of Camilla, Ga,
were given sentences last week.
Both were prisoners in the brig at
the time they were accused of beat
ing fellow prisoners. Fannin was a
guard.
Three other marine guards
Corpl. William E. Harrison of Tenn
pie, Tex. Corpl. Harold N. st. Clair
of Chattanooga, Tenn, and Pfc.
Roger E. Fontaine of Grand Coulee,
Wash.-were acquitted.
Fannin himself was convicted only
of four of the six counts leveled
against him. These accused him of
striking two inmates, burning one
with lighted cigarette and threat
ening ito get" one after the charges
of brig irregularities originated.
