Pennock proved easy for his pitching opponent, fanning in_short order, and Combs died on a roller to Meadows on the first ball pitched.

Hall, 2 27 years old, and years old, former police agents. who admitted a charse | of perjury in connection with the sup- posed purchase of liquor, were sen- tenced to the penitentiary today by Justice Frederick L. Siddons in Crim- inal Division 2. Davis was fined and given a term of two years in the penitentiary, while Hall was also fined 0, but his term was placed at 18 months in prison. Justice Siddons declared that it was inconceivable to him how men em- ployed by their Government to aid in the enforcement of the prohibition law should betray their Government and make false affidavits by means of which innocent persons might be sent to the penitentiary. If it were not the first offense of each of the ac- cused, he said, he would have im- posed a more severe sentence. Davis told the court that he had not been able to leave whisky alone and declared that having to drink so much of the purchases had got the better of him. Hall expressed his regret that he had joined in the adventure and the court took his youth into consideration in fixing the term of im- prisonment. The men swore to an affidavit be. fore United States Commissioner Turnage last July that they had bought whisky from Danny Mills at 612 L street southwest, which is the home of a policeman and wheré police officials had laid a trap for the ac- cused.
