sailor convicted of trespassing in
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Charles

had heard Harrell's testimony,
which directed that city police
be instructed on the proper
method of making arrests"
"The police were called to
make the arrest of Harrell after
he had been placed under arrest
by the sheriff's office" said a
city official today. And the
police were not called to the
witness stand in Criminal Court
yesterday to contradict the testi-
