on Monday from Clyde Alvin
Gnegy, of Mt. Lake Park. Gnegy
also presented letter to the editor
of The Republican for publication,
which appears in another section
of this newspaper.
Gnegy wrote that the officers
took undue advantage of Wood and
"frightfully beat and man-handled
him. Even after handwriting him
and tying his feet together, he was
beaten with a broken broom stick. -
Moon asserted that Wood for
chilly resisted arrest and exhibited
teeth bites on his shoulder and
bruises on his shins from the
struggle
Frantz also was bitten, Moon said.
Both used their fists, he said, and
the broom end of a broom stick.
Wood sustained bruises and black
eye and was treated by Dr. E. l.
Baumgartner after he was brought
to the county jail Saturday evening.
States Attorney Slower said he
was investigating but had not COM

who witnessed the arrest.

park idea at Deep Greek Lake a

draft McKeldin took the edge off
Byrd's disclosure last Saturday
that he would try for the Demo-
cratic nomination next year. The
retiring University of Maryland
president entered the race exactly
one week after Baltimore's Mayor
Thomas D'Alesandro h a d an
nounced his candidacy for next
springs primary. A third probable
Democratic candidate is George P.
Mahoney, Baltimore contractor,
who was defeated by Lane in the
Democratic primary. He also was
defeated last year for the U. S.
Senate in the General election.
Party leaders have urged avoid
ing a bruising primary campaign
this term which might weaken the
Democrats for the fall election.
Present indications do not point
that way, however.
