CHICAGO, November 29.—William Coleman, whose bulk of 372 pounds made him the county's problem pris- oner, has been sentenced to a year's confinement, but he will not serve it in the customary lock-up for that term —the Bridewell—because all the brawn and ingenuity of jailers cannot get him in. Arrested three months ago in Wash- ington on a charge of passing $2,800 in worthless checks, Coleman was re- turned for trial, but could not wedge himself through the Bridewell portals, “Besides, there isn't a cell big'enough to hold him,” Supt. Edward Denemark remonstrated. Unable to enter the gate of the wit- ness stand, Coleman was sworn, flexwded guilty and sentenced—stand- Coleman probably will serve the sentence in the county jail hoépital, where he was kept while waiting a hearing. s NEWEST 1936 MODELS WITH ALL METAL TUBES To_be modern. make sure your new radio has metal tubes.
