|2-Year Fugitive
Up

PHENIX CITY, Ala, June ls
IA.-After eluding officers for
two years, Clarence o. HEAD
Revel gave himself up here yes
terday to answer a long list of
charges resulting from Phenix
City's vice cleanup of 1854.
Revel was released on $29, ZOO
bond after being questioned for
two hours by officials from the
attorney generals Office.
State authorities also were
waiting to question him about
the A. L. Patterson murder two
years ago yesterday that touched
of the wholesale vice breakdown
and brought an end to the racke-
|teering empire that fiourished at
Phenix City for years.
Revel surrendered to United
States Commissioner o. K. Park

ally prescribed, a treatment pro-
gram which recognized no men,
tai illness as "incurable" and ac-
cepted realistically that crime
was an effect of mental disease
and that the tendency to crime
was rooted in mental illness.
There was no guarantee that
every "criminally insane" pa
tient would be cured-but there
was instilled in every staff ply
stefan, every professional and
semiprofesSional worker, and
every employee, the idea that
there was a cure for every form
Iof mental illness-for every in
dividual sutherland that it
could be found. This is the phi
Ilosophy of st. Elizabeths Hos
Ipital that has always, during its
hundred-year history, stemmed
down from the superintendent
to the attendants. DR.. Winfred
Overholser, the present superin-
tendent, again and again tells
his staff, There is a cure. Find
It'll"

been a patient in mental hos
lpital. Joe had a pattern of sex
offenses; Harry was a booster"
the vernacular for shoplifter,
John had choked a woman to
death in her apartment after she
had leased him. AS for the rest
there were a murderer, an armed
Irobber, a man charged with
terminal assault; one man
already serving a 10-year SEN
tence in the District of Columbia
Reformatory for arson but SO
mentally i'll that it became expe-
dent to transfer him to st,
Elizabeths for treatment. There
was one patient, never charged
with any criminal offense, who
was housed in the maximum Sc
Icurity section because, while a
patient in an outside" ward, he
had become uncomfortable.
Only 10 Of the 100 patients
housed in Howard Hall were UNI
Idergoing this particular form of
Itherapy. Twelve or fifteen others
were spending several hours each
week with trained psychothera-
pists in individual psychoanal-
ysis. Other patients were under
going hydrotherapy, insulin sub
shock, electric shock treatment;
some had undergone lobotomies
(the cutting of a nerve in the
BRAIN; and a number had been
given expensive plastic surgery
to overcome anxiety causing
physical Disagreement.

All of it was part of the over.

phase Of childhood. every Incl
dent. naming names. and trying
to preserve some dignity, dress
ing up much of our telling In
fancy phantasy and telling lies
that the rest Of the group tore
to pieces to make us face the
truth. They were not conscious
lies, but lies that were made UP
of the phantasy in which we es-
caped from reality, the phantasy
which has more substance thar
actual fact in the mind Of a
mentally i'll person--the phan-
tastes which led us to commit
unnecessary crimes, to commit
social suicide. and to destroy
ourselves.
The murderer told of the voices
the delusive grandeur that led
him to kill. The thief told OF
his sex hungers, the running
away. the inferiority he felt. The
sex deviate assumed a pose of
self justification and self-right-
eousneSs to have it knocked out
from under him by the realities
of the group comments. And
each of us began to identity
with the others. Soon all of us
became mirrors of each other
revealing our faults and ankle
ties, our Illustrations and emo
tional disturbances; our imma-
turity and childishness. It was
a slow process and time-con-
Stunning. Hundreds of hours OF
treatment were needed in most
cases to tear through the rigid
layers Of patterns formed in
years OF living in an unreal
world.
But it was worth the invest
ment Of time. So many of us
managed to catch a glimpse Of
the inner man, to gain a new
residence, a recovery from frus-
tration and fears and setbacks
a growing up and a realistic
acceptance of life. For those
of us in the group who got this
there was the promise of a new
life with freedom from mental
illness and, with that, freedom
from crime.
To us-the forger, the MUIR
derer, the uncomfortable, the sex
deviate, the robber-the anti
dote for crime is in mental
hygiene, not in prisons; the cure
for delinquency is in psychiatriC
clinics and not in jails and
reformatories.
In the treatment program at
Howard Hall at st. Elizabeths
there is a new hope, a new wis
dom and a new faith that many
of us will emerge from the ex-
perience as socially acceptable
men. free from mental disease
and its consequent compulsions
to criminal acts.
But psychotherapy alone can
not heal. 1t takes other ele-
ments.

Back In Them Thar
Days Whisky Was
Cheap By The Barrel

Speaking of the good old
days, this one scraped the bot
tom of the barrel!
Vernon Farmhouse, of Belle
Valley, has in his possession
receipt dated Dec. IA, 1883,
which was given to Thomas
Ralph when he purchased one
barrel or 5O.42 gallons of
whisky from A. Dixon. of
GAINESVILLE.
The receipt was found by
Farmhouse in an old cedar
chest in his home, formerly the
home of Thomas Ralph.
The possessor of the receipt
stated Thomas Ralph was a
great uncle Of Miles Ralph, of
Belle Valley.
Other receipts found in the
old cedar chest are dated back
as far as 1919, but according to
Farmhouse they lacked the
punch" and failed to record
any actual transaction that
would give rise to the idea that
we are living in a more pros
porous age price versus
quantity.

New Farley Park"
Al Sulnn,eriieId Is
Recreation Center

Under the supervision and
planning of the Summerfield
council, plans are being perfected
to dedicate the new Farley Park
in Summerfield in the near
future, which will be used as a
recreation center.
The land, located on North
Pike street, was purchased from
the heirs of Wesley Farley,
prominent residents of Summer
field for many years. The pur-
chase price was reduced by the
family with the stipulation that
1t become community park.
The Homemakers club of Sum-
merfield is now in the process
OF raising money which will be
used to buy playground equip
ment. They recently held bake
sale at the Carl Danford farm
and this money will be the first
to be applied for this purpose.
Former residents of Summer
field, who wish to contribute to
this worthy project, should con-
tact Mrs. Kathryn Dysert

A sign, designating this area
as the "Farley Park" has already
