They then went to Ann's and one of ttiem got Into a itr that had bee* parked there over "i?H and drove it oM. The lev. Mvia Paaiei paster of Wildwood Presbyterian Chgrch, was the next witness. He said be wanted to go on record as being opposed to the place since he felt it was a bad influence on the com munity. Mr. Wheatly asked him whe^e he thought beer outlets should be and Rev. Daniel said they cert-ia ly shouldn't be in residential dis tricts. Lawyer's Appraisal After Rev. Daniel's testimony, Mr. Wheatly referred to tbe hear ing as a fight between Ann's Place and tbe Presbyterian Cburch. County ABC Officer Ma-phail Ayscue said that he did not wish to testify in the hearing since his testimony at a previous hearing by tbe board was already in the record. Mr. Wheatly had one question for Mr. Ayscue. He wanted to know if he had received any re ports since March 12 that would 'tend to show that Ann's Place was an unsuitable outlet for beer. Mr. Ayscue said that he had not. Lee Murdoch was the next wit ness. He declared that the place had a bad reputation. Mr. Mur doch operates a grocery-service station a short distance from the drive-in. He said that people com ing in and out of the store used the drive-in as a frequent subject of conversation. The number of beer cans scat tered along the highway In front of his business was not so big while the place was shut down, he testified. Sheriff Called Sheriff Hugh Salter was called next and he said that his testi mony, too, was already recorded. Deputy Bell was called next and he said the place had a bad repu tation. Capt. John Dean of the Cherry Point provost marshal's office gave the results of an investiga tion of Ann's Drivc-ln which he conducted personally. Captain Dean explained that his. investigation was made some time after the place had been put off limits. The purpose of the investi gation was to determine whether or not the drive-in should remain off limits. Following the investigation. Cap tain Dean recommended that the drive-in be kept off limits because of the defiant attitude and lack of cooperation on the part of Mrs. Sykes. The captain read a statement he said Mrs. Sykes made to him. "She said abe didn't give a damn about the general, the board or the Ma rine Corps," Captain Dean de clared. The board mentioned was the disciplinary board at Cherry Point. When Mrs. Sykes took the stand later, she said Captain Dean must have been wrong. "'I don't curse," she declared. Others testifying to the bad repu tation of the place were Mrs. Earl Murdoch, Mrs. Margaret Bell, Earl Murdoch, Mrs. Jake Wade and R. W. Davis. The witnesses called by Mr. Wheatly generally agreed that the drive-in was operated In a lawful manner and had either a good rep utation or at least one "average for beer Joints" as one witness put it. Those testifying for Mrs. Sykes included Alfred Rouse, Jaaper Long, Marine Sergeant Larry Els worth (he i? cornered lao* by Captain Dean), Mm LOUan Me Robert White and Mrs. Bessie Wit son. labtaiMltti Mr*. Sykes took the (tend next. She txean bar taytog she had op erated under ajto* license .toe. January 1#50.

She aaid she co operated with law enforcement of ficers to every Way she knew how. Mrs. Sykes, under questioning by her lawyer, said that tta loud speakers bad hot been turned on since Manch 12. and that before then they were always off by U:30 p.m. She aaid she did not permit un lawful or boisterous conduct in the Coastal Termite Control U honoring cactr*ct?

Before going iota business in 1850, Mrs. Sykes said that she had ? J <;?? .klLb-LR ITsuL>? ? uvr cnuureo. voucc cross examination she said the only work she bad done before that was to "pica cotton, chop cotton and milk cows." Judge Hamilton then asked her about firearms being kept in the drive-in. She replied that she kept one pistol, for which she bad a li cense. to protect her business. Judge Hamilton then asked her about the off limits signs. Mrs. Sykes said they were hurting her civilian trade and "denying me the right to make a legitimate liv ing." It was then that Mrs. Sykes told Judge Hamilton that Captain Dean had misquoted her. She said she doesn't curse, drink beer or sell beer to anyone who has bad too much. Defines 'Too Much' Judge Hamilton asked her how much was the most she had ever sold anybody to drink at the drive in. She answered, "four or five or six cans." "Do you want to tell us about the girls who lived there in the trailer?" was the judge's next question. "There weren't any girls," Mrs. Sykes declared. There was one girl who worked at the drive-in and lived in the trailer, and she had two children, according to Mrs. Sykes. When Judge Hamilton asked her if Ma rines ever went back for "social entertainment" she informed him that the girl in question was a "nice girl" who was going to mar ry her son. Still answering questions of Judge Hamilton, Mrs. Sykes said there had never been any fights in the drive-in and except for the March 12 incident, there had never been any shooting there ? this de spite the fact that her lawyer, when the recording machine was turned off, told the hearing officer of one other shooting in which a man was hit in the foot. Mrs. Sykes said the bad reputa tion of her place was the result of talk by "people across the street ?that's where it all started," she declared. Inspector Explains Vance Wrenn, former beer in spector for this county, came for ward, saying he wanted to explain a few points. He said he had never seen any drunks hanging around Ann's Place even though he had received a number of reports that they did. Mr. Wrenn said the reason Mrs. Sykes had never received a warn ing letter from the board was that he usually tried to talk to people in person rather than having the board send a letter. I He mentioned one instance when Mr. Sykes allegedly hit a man over the head with a hammer. Mr. Wrenn said that he had warned 'them on that occasion. The physical pk.it, accordin; to Mr. Wrenn, is suitable for the sale | of beer for on-premises consump tion. Mr. Weathersby concluded the hearing by saying he would try to have the record ready for presen tation it the Aug. 6 meeting of the board. He promised that if he did not have it ready by then be would present it at the September meet ing. Burreuoh't mmatttm ? mm?
