Is Set Free By
A Court Order
(By The Associated Press)
HERRIN, Illinois. May 26th—
A small dog owned by Harvey
Harris, a farmer, was cleared of
a charge of inciting a big dog to
bite. The accusation, contained
in a $5,000 damage suit filed here
against Harris by William Slater,
declared that Slater had suffered
permanent injuries from an at
tack by a “big dog”. The mo
tion alleged that tho the small
dog did not itself actually bite
Slater it did contribute to the
attack “by aiding, abetting and
encouraging said big dog to bite
and wound the person of said
Slater.” City Judge R. T. Cook
threw the case out of court. .

Certain Lawyer
Explains reason
For Rudeness
(Rv The Associated Press)
LONDON, May 26—A lawyer
had his revenge upon a tele
phone operator who was a wit
ness in Old Bailey court here. He
subsequently apologized for his
“rudeness” and explained why
he had gone slightly berserk. “I
felt exactly as an elderly sheep
would feel when confronted by
his natural enemy, the wolf—
gagged and bound in front of
him,” he said. “I remembered
all the wrong numbers I had
ever had.”
