STANDARD MIKES ANSWER IN THE PATRICK LIBEL An answer to the complaint of E. W. Patrick against the Ogden Standard was filed yesterday in the district court in which the defendant In the $50,000 libel suit re-affirms that everything ev-erything said in the story published about Patrick was the truth. Patrick sued the paper for alleged damages to his character because of a story appearing ap-pearing in the paper which reported the alleged occurrences in a local ho-tel ho-tel with Patrick as one of the principals prin-cipals on a certain night several months ago. After the county's prosecution had failed, Patrick sued the newspaper for libel. Later a complaint was filed agalnsl him bv the Mate parole officer, offi-cer, charging that he had contributed to the delinquency of a young girl, and this case has been set for a hearing in the juvenile court at Farmington on April 30. This case was originally to have been heard in the Ogden juvenile court.
