Prosecutor’s Dramatic Eyeglasses Defeated by Opponent’s Little Joke E”;é:.';‘ Even the tilt of pince-nez glasses on a lawyer's nose and his grandiose flourishes in adjusting them there, can wield a telling psychological effect on a jury, according to Assistant Corpora- tlon Counsel Walter L. Fowler of Police Court. He ought to know, because he ad- mits that his pompous use of such “tricks of the trade” in & recent intox- fcation case went down to defeat before the surprise tactics of a colored lawyer with a keen sense of humor and & “hunch” that juries, too, enjoy their little joke. The “battle of the spectacles” began when Fowler purchased not long ago a pair of glasses of imposing appearance, attached to a long black ribbon. ‘The glasses have an extremely high bridge and are of the type whose lenses fold together and are snapped open with startling effect by a slight touch of the fingers. Fuwl%r wore them for the first time in prosecuting the case of a colored motorist charged with driving while under the influencé of ardent spirits. He was opposed by a well known colored attorney. As the first defenso witness was turned over to him for cross-exami- nation, Fowler, with great deliberation, cieared his throat, pulled out glasses, snapped them r/:en suddenly and grandiloquently perched them on the bridge of his nose. The witness’ eyes popped out and his demeanor immediately wilted. The process was repeated before each of the defense witnesses, while the jury gaped open-mouthed. Witnesses and g.urymm seemed duly impressed that ere was a distinguished prosccutor whose words were not to be smirked at. When court adjourned for the day all the witnesses had heen heard and it remained only for the attorneys to gr(vsvm thelr arguments to the jury. 'owler was confident of a victory, as he fondled his glasses in retrospection. ‘When court convened next morning the prosecutor addressed the jury with an- other display of bespectacled serlous- ness. eanwhile the colored lawyer had VAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALAALAALALALALLAL UPID no longer uses an old-fashioned Bow and Arrow to convey amorous messages.

Thus prepared, he arose slowly and faced the jury with solemn mien. an air of Rrent ostentation he forth from his pocket & pair of essive - spectacles, chained to his coat by & black ribbon at least’ an inch and a half wide. With a flourish he snapped the glasses open and placed them on his nose. g Before he could say a word the jury roared with laughter, and the judge re- 1s | dtored order only by insistent poundini with his gavel. The speech was brief, but punctuated with much gesticulation and flourishing with the ',um. The rebuttal of the prosecution was weak and_half-hearted. ‘The jury retired and returned in less than five minutes with a verdict of “not gullty.” . e A memorial window was dedicated in Bunyan Church, Bedford, England, re- cently, to 14-year-old John Steven, who gave his life in trying to save a young friend in a boating accident last June. ottt Lotttk CANNED SOUPS rival the best home made when each canis seasoned with LEA & PERRINS’ SAUCE _— (R o \ 7S SN Dexdale hascreated a Service Weightin “Hindu", “Zdaz", “Charme” .. . and other fashionable hues +..that keep proud company with you and your escort.
