Prisoner Denies Three and Bottle of Beer Made Him Drunk. PITTSBURGH, November 2 (®)- Can three hot dog sandwiches and a bottle of beer produce inebriation? Behind locked doors a jury in Criminal Court here today deliberated that question in the case of Daniel B. Dodd, 26, charged with driving an automobile while intoxicated. A city physiclan said Dodd was drunk at the time. The defendant denied the charge—unless, he said, | “one bottle of beer and three hot dog sandwiches could intoxicate me. And I am sure they did not.” The answer to the question prob- ably will be known tomorrow. Should the jury reach a verdict today, a court holiday, it will be brought in tomor: | row. @330 e HOMER L.
