Show 'News Probe Uncovers Liquor Violations Two investigators hired by the Deseret News to search out the extent of liquor by the drink in Salt Lake County ended their job Saturday and reported there is plenty to drink but that with three notable exceptions -- its They went into taverns. Establishments visited were scattered throughout the valley. A portion of tlietr report reads: Generally, it js very much easier to get into a club and buy a drink if it is located all behind locked doors. are those of private clubs. They are easily opened. The Deseret News team went out on its assignment 31 days ago with orders to get evidence of sale by the drink in as many private clubs as possible. Or beer parlors. They found three beer parlors in Salt Lake County where whisky is being served in complete defiance of the law. in the county. We didn't gain entry or membership in a single club in the city. They slammed the door. In all, the undercover pair either bought or were given membership in seven clubs. All are in the county. The cost of these member Sunny and warmer Sunday.

The investigators say there is one thing all of the clubs have in common: There is no need to buy a bottle and tak it in to get a drink. The idea of the liquor is locker, they report, ignored in all we visited. One of the clubs which asked us to bring in a bottle told us to take it out with us. The manager said: 'We don't have any lockers. " Some other clubs have lockers and make a pretense of using them. One club had the name of the manager on all of a dozen bottles in a locker. Another bartender had a name written on a tag attached facts More and figures on liquor locker investigation, in-dep- th pages and A-- 2 A-- 3. to a string. When the bottle Was empty the string was taken off and looped around a full one. Most of the clubs, however, just served the liquor in the same manner as any bar in a place where sale of liquor by the drink is legal. Is the liquor locker law being violated?" one investigator was asked. Yes. One hundred per cent. It s ignored, dis regarded, even laughed at. The investigators also turned up evidence of bootlegging. That is, bootlegging of whisky bought at wholesale in another state and brought into Utah in large amounts. One bar was visited bv the investigators twice in one day. The first time, for lunch, theie were seven bottles on the bar being used by the bartender. Six of them did not carry state liquor stamps. Later, the pair returned for dinner. This time the place was very busy. There were sixteen bottles on the back bar. Fourteen were bootleg. The investigators were served wine with their meal. The investigators did not try to gain entry into the more exclusive clubs in Salt Lake City because it would have been impossible to obtain a membership on short notice. These clubs have more strict rub's about membership and each application must be passed'by committee which the law requires. Three of the memberships obtained cost $1 each. Two were $4 each and one was $25. One cost nothing. The log written by the invesli-gator- s contains statements which reveal how widely the law is broken and also that club owners are aware of the fact they are breaking the law. A few excerpts from this log: Obtained $2 membership: had to deny we were police. Put PAGES members." Waitress handed us card listing kinds of drinks available. Ordered a Coke High.
