Sentenced to Jail The selection of “Shady Dell” for slecping quarters Saturday night proved an unwise move on the part of Paul Hillman, who was booked ‘in court this morning on a charge of {drunkenness. A suspended jail men- tece, which has been hanging over him for several werks, was put into efiect by Judge Joseph M. Donevan. Saturday night, Scout Executive A. H. Breckbill, who is also fire war< den, received notification that a | brush fir> was burning in the “Shady Dell” section, He immediately gath- ered together a group of Loy S and went to the scene, where efs forts were fmmediately made to stem |the blaze. While working through the woods, one of the scouts tripped over Hillman, who was sleeping soundly, oblivious to the fire which was raging all about him. Breckbill, { with the assistance of several others, got Hillman to his feet, placed him into an automobile and escorted him to headquarters. It was at first thought that Hili- man might have been responsible | for the fire, but a later investigation proved this was not so. He did ad- mit to the court that he had a couple of drinks and had simply lain down for a sleep. The fire, which for a time threat- ened to reach several buildings near- | by, was extinguished after a hard -|fight by the scouts and a group of men drafted for aervice | Warden Breckbill. Two Grass Fires The fire department was called upon to extinguish two grass fires over the weck end, both of which were put out before any damage Tre- by Fire sulted. At 4 p. m.
