Prisoner Beating Charged In Court Case DALLAS <dP> — Four inmates testified before a federal judge Tuesday about “hectic scenes’* in cluding the beating of prisoners by deputies following last week’s jail break attempt at the old Dal las County jail. All said they were stripped of clothes and bedding and left to pace barefoot on the concrete floor of their cells. They were fed a restricted diet of coffee and rolls. The bid to break out of the old jail annex came on the night of the general election within about half-an-hour of closing of the polls. No prisoner escaped but a jailer, Arthur Pickering, was shot. He is now in fair condition at Parkland Hospital. Bobby Lee Williams, 29, con victed of burglary and appealing a 12-year sentence, said he was repeatedly beaten and marched naked down a corridor before television news cameras. He said deputies took him to a room where “they stood me up against the wall and started flail ing away with their sticks and fists.” “When I lowered my hands from my head to break the blows, they handcuffed my hands behind me and stomped on my bare feet,” he testified. Williams said a chief directed the deputies “working on me not to put marks on my face.” Asked whether he had com plained to Sheriff Clarence Jones when taken before him later, Wil liams replied: “No, I didn’t think it would do much good. I figured he authorized it.” At one point U.S. District Court Judge Sarah T. Hughes directed Williams to pull up his shirt so she could see bruises which he said were caused by the beating. She made no comment. Williams said that “except for two paper plates, one on Friday and the other on Moriday,” he had eaten nothing but rolls and drunk m V/ I I SKAGGS > ALBERTSONS DRUGS & FOODS A WEGIIff BONELESS HA* SMOKED LEAN NO WASTE LB.

Ecology Boy Gets Rich On Trash DOWNEY, Calif. <A>i — When Carl Zflambo Jr^stav^ foUect- ing trl^'TwO y^ai-'s 'ago, 1 at fne age of 10, ecology was his main concern. But now, according to his fa ther, Carl has made $8,000 with other people’s discards. He’s do ing so well, he plans on putting himself through college — and taking his family to Italy. Carl works an average three hours a day following a regular trash route that leads from neigh bors’ homes to downtown bars. “All the people in the neighbor hood know I want their bottles and cans, and they save them for me,” said the blond, freckled sixth-grader. He sells the trash to glass and can manufacturers, and he says he can make as much as 10 cents a bottle. He says he gets 10 cents per pound for aluminum cans and 30 cents a case for beer bottles. He also collects newspapers and turns them over free to his church. Carl said he doesn’t think of himself as a laborer, but as an “independent businessman.” “I’m saving the money for col lege,” he said. He’s an accordion ist and he plans to study music. “But really I’m more interested in keeping the neighborhood clean,” he added. Carl plans to use some of the money this summer to take his mother and father, a foreman in a machinery plant, to visit his paternal grandparents in Rome. For others who would like to take up trash as a business, the youth had some advice: “Start with a pair of gloves, because you get cut pretty easy.” Do It Yourself Christmas Gift DIP & DAP SHOP Louise Pairett 206 S.
