One Firm Violates
Stute Lobby Laws

ANNAPOLIS, June ! tH).-The
Maryland secretary of States
Office said yesterday only one
firm would have to be reported
to the attorney general for fall
ing to comply with State lobby
laws after a last-minute rush Of
reporting over the holiday week
end.
Administrative Assistant James
p. Brock said the Master Electro
clan Association Of Prince
Georges County in Hyattsville
would be turned in for failure to
report expenses of Lee Power, its
lobbyist at the 1855 General AS
sembly.
This will compare with 20 to
80 firms being delinquent in the
past, Mr.. Brock said. He called
it "the best year we've had yet"
in receiving detailed expense re-
ports for legislative agents.
He said this was even more
remarkable since there were 1870
lobbyists registered this year,
compared to about $50 for pre-
vious sessions.

Court DisInisses
ChargesAgainst
BottIeCIub Pair
GriIlos Fuce New
Counts in Test of
Prince Georges Lows

Two Prince Georges County
operators Of a bottle club were
freed yesterday Of charges they
permitted the after-hours con-
sumption of alcoholic beverages.
when Circuit Court Judge
Charles C. Marbury ruled that
warrants against them were
faulty.
States Attorney Blair H.
Smith said the pair, Vincent r.
Grillo and his wife Mildred, OPP
orators Of the Lyre Club on Marl-
boro pike, will be recharged in
new warrants under a mutual
agreement with the Grillos to
test validity of the county's
anti-bottle club laws.
MIR. Smith ended a short hear
ing yesterday on a total Of five
charges against the couple, when
he conceded the warrants were
faulty as contended by Defense
Attorney John F. Lillard, jr., in
a motion to dismiss them.
Mr.. Lillard said the warrants
were insufficient to properly
charge an offense in that they
failed to name the persons
who allegedly consumed the
liquor.
Mr.. Smith said, after the
hearing, in a press conference
on the case held jointly with
Mr.. Lillard, that he will con-
tinue his fight to fulfill a cam
paign promise to eliminate
bottle clubs from the county.
He said he is convinced the
Grillos are as anxious as he is
to determine legality of the bottle
club operation and that they
will comply with a previous
offer to submit to a technical
arrest in order to bring the dis
pute to a showdown.
The new arrests apparently
will lead to a test of an old
law under which the Grillos
were charged. 1t prohibits the
consumption of alcoholic bever-
ages in licensed restaurants be-
tween the hours of 2 and 6 am.
Also tested will be the county's
new all-inclusive law, passed by
the last session OF the Legisla-
ture, prohibiting the consump-
ton Of alcohol in any public or
private place during the early
morning hours.
Mr.. Lillard has contended both
the old law and the new one,
to become effective in June, are
unconstitutional.
MIR. Smith announced that new
cases against the Grillos will be
prepared for trial before q panel
sof three Circuit Court judges.
