Judge Parker Gives Robinson Robin-son Thirty Days and Fine A severe blow was dealt the "Green Onion" club Saturday when Judge Parker in the District Court sentenced Marion C. Robinson to pay a fine of $50.00 and serve thirty days in the County Jail. The Jail sentence how ever, was to be suspended providing the club was closed by May 11th and pool playing discontinued. Robinson furnished bail and took steps to appeal the case to the higher courts. He contends that the court overstepped itself in handling his case in that the city tried him on Sunday pool playing and the district court gave a decision on operating a public pool hall. He says the club is now willing to abolish Sunday playing. o Public Invited To Free Concert and Program A concert and program will be' given next Wednesday night, May 20th, on the lawn of the 1st ward chapel to which the public is invited free: The entertainment is under the direction of the recreation committee of the ward whose object is to provide clean and wholesome refcreatiion for which no charge is made.
