At the same time, Jim Cobb, Citizen reporter, dashed out of his apartment just across the hall and nk into the passageway. He and Kerrick dragged the prowler out into the street. He didn’t fight back. I could see he was tall and somewhat lanky, wore a white shirt, tan or light brown trousers and had blonde hair. Two police cars arrived within seconds of each other. They snap- ped handcuffs on the captured man and he was taken to the city jail.

Police Of- ficer Bethel took witnesses into my apartment to question us on what had happened. Kerrick told him that when he first went af- ter the man he saw him stooping down peering into the second wind..7 from the front. Then, said Kerrick, the man moved on down to the kitchen window and just as he stooped down to look in, Kerrick grabbed him and spun him around. Kerrick said, “The guy told me he didn’t mean anything, that he was just going home, and I said, ‘Don’t give me any of that stuff. I saw you look into one window and then move on'‘to the next one before I grabbed you’.” The policeman said he had seen the same man on four other nights walking around in the same area and had been keeping an eye on him. It was learned today that Tur- ner was badly injured during his service as a Marine when he was beaten by four men, one a sailor. The fight, which happened dur- ing the late years of the war, re- sulted in hospitalization for-Tur- ner for over a year. He sustained a fractured skull, broken jaw and other injuries at that time. His original home is Birmingham, Ala. His employer said that he had a good record and that the only time he got into trouble was when he drank “because his in- juries left him in a condition which resulted in inability ‘to hold his liquor’,” Turner told Finch, Citizen staff photographer. Turner said he had had three drinks at a Duval street bar and that after that he didn't remem- ber anything. Police said he did not appear to be drunk when arrested, Chief Joseph Kemp had him photographed and his Yingerprints FULL PRICE 1949 PONTIAC, 4-Deor ..... 194?

Van Fleet as Eighth Army commander never reached him. Pace also contradicted testimony yesterday by former Defense Sec- retary Robert A. Lovett that Lovett Snatched ammunition production away from the Army last Novem- ber and turned control of it over to a civilian expediter. Pace said Lovett assigned a civilian assistant to work with him but that control did not pass from the Army. Lovett told the subcommittee yesterday that he “lost patience” with the Army’s handling of an ammunition shortage and gave con- trol of the problem to a civilian assistant. Pace challenged this statement by saying: “The secretary did not at apy time take the ammunition problem out of the hands of the Army.” Lovett told the senators there was an ammunition shortage and assigned the blame to “the Army tas a whole.” He gave them a story of long, red tape delays.
