Asked whether he was aware of the furore resulting from his dis closure, Hanley said: “I had, of course, authorization from superior officers to publish the records." tractive. Carl Fitchett, Jr, report- i I ed on the low bid for the. project. Commander Paul White, who pre sided, pointed out that some of the members had suggested the In stallation of a television set and pool tables in the clubhouse to make It more' inviting and -more attractive to members. The discussion was led off by Carl Fitchett, Sr., longtime leader of the post and prominent Dunn business man. Mr. Fitchett recalled that in earlier years pool tables had brought criticism to the Legion and advised against a repltion. •*1 don’t , mean to leave the im pression that I’m a •goody-goody’,” said Mr. Fitchett, “but I believe we should consider the matter thor oughly.” Earl Jones, who formerly oper ated a pool room here, told the post he would-be happy to loan his Pool table for the nurnose. DOFFESMYRE OPPOSED At that point, Attorney Everetts L Doffermyre arose and rigorous ly argued again* the pool table idea and poel roams in general. “Aa a ettisen and as lawyorwho has assn a good deal of the effects at crime, I tall you that no possible good can eatae from a pool room or a pool table.” " NO. 245 Superior Court Judge A.
