Ths atat»* high court upheld th* Franklin elgotiit court in the case ot Earl Sizemore, sentenced to one to three years tn the state prison upon conviction for operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor. Stiffness of the penalty was explained, in

part, oo the fact Sizemore had been twice convicted on the same charge. In his appeal, Sisemore presented an affidavit from a witness which stated that Pearl Green, an employe of Sibemore’s, was the driver, and not Sisemore at the time the vehicle was in mbtion. The truck had halted between Laurel and Andersonville, and the arresting officer had testified that i when he approached the truck Sizemore was behind the wheel. The supreme court ruling held that the evidence was not “of such compelling nature as would have caused a different result at the trial . . . Thera was no error in overruling.” The court also held that the appeal came more than 30 days after conviction. Ship Ammunition To Saudi Arabia U. S.
