IRVINGTON DRYS LOOK TO STATE

Will “Ask " Gommission to Overrule County Board.

Spokesman for a delegation of Irvington residents announced today they would carry their fight to prevent the sale of liquor in their

| community to the state Alcoholic

Beverages commission, This announcement folldwed renewal by the Marion County Liquor board of beer and wine licenses for two Irvington business establishments, the A & P Grocery store and the Wolman drugstore. Lou #Robertson, spokesman for the Irvington “dry” delegation, said he would ask the ABC to overrule the county board on the licenses, Stand Rejected The delegation based its requests for rejection of the licenses on the ground that the real estate deed covenants prohibited the sale of alcoholic beverages. Robert S. Smith, liquor board president, explained to the group that the board had no authority to reject any liquor license on the basis of restrictive clauses in real estate deeds. Renewal of the licenses was voted unanimously. In the past the ABC has not considered cases in which local boards voted a unanimous opinion. The state commission usually acts only in the event of a tie vote among the local board members.
