Deputy Sheriff Slugs Driver At Showboat

- Sheriff's Men Harass Night Spot; Dailey Hints Grand Jury Probe

i (Photo, Page 8) Sheriff Cunningham’s harassment rajd of the Showboat, 4425 N. Keystone Ave., finally erupted into violence last night when a deputy slugged a patron who was recalcitrant in producing his driver's license. Two other deputies pummeled the victim when he lashed out at his assailants. The victim was identified tentatively as James McGill, who drove into the parking area of the club with two other men and three women. The car was halted by” Deputy Smokey Davis who told the occupants: “All right. Get out of that car. I'm telling you in advance that if there are any jugs in that car you're going to jail.” Three pints of whisky were found under the front seat and one man who admitted being the driver was arrested. When Mz. McGill, angered by

Meanwhile, a grand jury investigation loomed as an aftermath of the battle at the Show-| boat early yesterday between! sheriff's deputies and club] bouncers. Prosecutor George 8. Dailey said he had evidence that the raid staged at the county night spot Friday was “illegal, unlawful and totally unwarranted.” The prosecutor said this was “just another case of poor judgment” on the part of Sheriff Cunningham. Mr. Dailey branded as a “bald lie” the story of the sheriff's deputies that they were “attacked and beaten up while trying to uphold the law.” \ “Definite Information”

“I have definite information from reliable sources,” Mr. Dailey said, “that the raid staged by the sheriff and his men was more in keeping with Gestapo raids than those of an American law enforcement officer.” While at no time in previous accounts ‘was the sheriff men-| tioned as being present at the! pre-dawn raid, Mr. Dailey said he had information that the raid was engineered and executed under the sheriff's direct supervisfon. He said a witness saw the sheriff lurking in the shadows outside the club.

NEW YORK, Oct. 8 (UP)~— Vic Raschi, the ace 21-game winner of the New York Yankees, was named tonight by Manager Casey Stengel to “go out and wrap it all up for us tomorrow” in the fifth game of the World Series against the Brooklyn Dodgers.
