WISER HOT TO ARGUE WITH

THE JUDGE TO SOLVE

f! NT R NATIONAL NEWS SERVICE! . ATLANTA, Ga., Dec. "Don't arsue with the Judge it's costly business." This bit of priceless advice was voiced by Attorney Arthur Ifeyman, who by an apology in court to Judge John Humphries saved himself from a term of twenty days in jail or a fine of j:00. aiivjctd iiffrai.t.cn of ourt rules came In the casa of Elmer Oliver, former,, president of the t 'liver Rim Company, who was befcig tried on a charge of einbezxi ent of rr.crt ii.au fldO.GCa of the company's funds. The verbal tilt between the attorney who represented Oliver and tho court followed a ruling made by Judge Humphries in permitting certain evidence involving a Jl,50 0 transaction Oliver was said to have made while president of the rim company. "They are trying to hatch up ,this item, which never before has been included In the charges," Attorney Ileyman told the court.

Judge Humphries said. "I won't pay It," announced the lawyer. "I'll go to Jail first!"

Later Heyman apologized to the court and asked that the sentence be revoked. Judgo Humphries removed all of the fine but which the attor ney promised to pay. I
