The browS Of those who like
their liquor late had new reason
today to wrinkle with worry.
After-hours bottle club inbibers
face the possibility of having to
tell the court. some day, about
their nocturnal alcoholic activities.
For some 200 patrons Of the
Piccadilly Social Club at 1901
Fourteenth street NV, the day is
September II. That's when three
club officials and two mattresses
will stand trial before a Municipal
Court jury on charges of selling
whisky without a license.
They were arrested early Sum-
day, when Is policemen, led by
Capt. Otto p. Fuss of No. 13
Precinct, swept down on the place.
Undercover men had made illegal
buys Of liquor in the club before
the raid, Capt. Fuss said.
In addition to collaring the five,
the officers seized more than 800
bottles of various shapes, sizes and
colors. Most were opened and bore
names of drinkers, police said; but
86 unopened bottles were found in
the basement.
The officers also painstakingly
jotted down names and addresses
Of all persons present.
Assistant Corporation Counsel

Clark King plans to subpoens
every one Of these. He wants te
tell the jury, under oath, how they
gained entrance to the club anc
whether they bought any liquor
there.
Mr.. King insists the move is no,
part of a breakdown on the clubs
He has no quarrel with them until
he shifts a violation. He is using
the mass subpoena to help clinch
his case against the Piccadilly
Club. But he thinks the threat
of day in court win put late
drinkers on their guard.
Suggestions to Payments.
"It behooves the after-hours
club patron" he declared. ''to be
sure the place he visits is operat-
ing legally. That means no sales.
