In the case of Helen Noble, 50, charged with drunkenness and vagrancy, Judge Caro also made her sentence retroactive to the time of her arrest 14 days ago. Mrs, Noble was arrested by Police Officer Serge Hernandez in Pepe’s Cafe. She said to the Judge: “I was drinking a cup of coffee, Judge, with a shrimp boat captain who was telling me sweet nothings, close in my ear, but I didn’t listen to him.” Hernandez said that he wanted to help Mrs. Noble, that he feared she might wind up in trouble, since she “hangs around the shrimp docks.” Her rooms were burned last and since then, the officer “She flops wherever she Mrs. Noble said that she was. at present living at the quarters of and caring for an old blind man. On the night of her arrest she said she was merely going out at 3 a.m. to buy a pack of cigarettes for a friend, and one-fifth of wine for a “wino.” She is a hard worker, according to court officials, but has a diffi- cult time staying out of bars, ac- cording to them. The Judge said that she had serv- ed her time, and recommended that she take a job she said was offered to her, and stay out of bars. He also suggested that she help herself well as helping others, which she is prone to do. 11 YACHTS STOP (Continued From Page One) most outstanding yachting have to have a cruising range of 150 miles.

A Citizen photograph- jer, who accompanied the police on |their rounds Saturday identified her costume as in a photograph made then. It was extremely scan- ty. Miss Martin amused herself in court by making faces and stick- ing her tongue out at Lt. Cerezo and atone point declared im- patiently: ‘I don’t care what the court says, my dance is not in- decent. I’m an exotic dancer.” She described her act as a “‘Bal- inese Mambo” and attorney Wat- kins said it is an “exhibition of graceful movement and artistic perfection.” Under questioning, Lt. Cerezo averred: “I don’t know what you’d call that dance but it wasn’t de- cent. She was wiggling and shak- ing all over.” Lt. Hernandez, with a blush, said the same. At this time attorney MARCH ASKS COURT (Continued From Page One) |May 9th, 1952, insofar as it con- cerns, March, reading as follows: ‘Mr. Cabanas moved - Mr. Park- er seconded that the title of As- sistant Superintendent be abolish- : i.

Hernandez paused reflectively and agreed: ‘‘Nope, I guess you’ve os got to wiggle during a Mam- In an effort to prove. her inno- cence, Miss Martin asked for an op- portunity to demonstrate her dance before the crowded courtroom. “Y'd rather not have any demon- stration here,’”? Judge Esquinaldo said quickly. Two others showgirls testified on her behalf, saying that in their opinion, the dance was perfectly proper. One of the girls, Carmen Pearce, admitted that she was just an “amateur showgirl.” She was in the Preview at the time of the raids auditioning before Gor- don Wolfson, owner of the club. “Did you get the job?” City At- torney M. Ignatius Lester asked interestedly in an effort to deter- mine whether she was an employee of the club. “No, I don’t think Mr. Wolfson thinks much of my singing---I seem to need more training. But I can do the Mambo.” All of this. repartee went for naught though, when ,Judge Es- quinaldo ruled that s Martin’s costume was outside the bounds of propriety and in accordance with the city ordinance he found her guilty. z “After all,” he pointed out, “there is a distinction between shorts and panties.” He was speak- ing of a city ordinance which states that females above the age“of 16 must be attired in shorts and top. He then assessed the $50 fine. Earlier, in the case of Miss Tan- ia Houser, M Gras dancer, the two officers said it they went into the club and watched the show for ten minutes at which time they arrested Miss Houser for dancing nude and indecently in public. Her costume was presented fn court yesterday and again the Cit- izen photographer testified that it was her sole attire at the time of the raid. Cerezo held up the costume, which consisted of, among other things, a pair of gloves. “This is all she had on,” Cerezo averred. But Miss Houser claimed that she had more on at the time but ; {lost it during a struggle with Cer- LEGION REVEALS (Continued From Page One) sion, two will be selected to be sent to Washington, D.
