Overflowing ‘Bowl’ Put 3 Here in Jail

View transcription

Three Camden men have New Year's celebration to blame for their predicament today. All of them tipped the "flowing bowl" a bit too much last night. Today one was sentenced to county jail for 60 days for ending his party by beating his wife; the second paid a $25 fine after he had informed holiday crowds in a loud voice that it would take a riot squad to arrest him and the third will spend 20 days in county jail regretting that he tipped over a number of chairs and tables in a local restaurant while intoxicated. Mrs. Eleanor Reilley, 2231 North Nineteenth street, told Judge Bernard Bertman this morning that her husband, Charles Beilley, 37 years old, from whom she has been separated for two years, broke into her house last night while intoxicated and beat her. Reilley said he could not remember what had happened after he took a few drinks. John Kernan, 31 years old, Second and Market streets, wanted to get into the Stanley Theatre, Broadway and Market streets at 1 a. m. today. When he was refused admission he defied the world to keep him out. "It took the whole Gloucester police force to arrest me once and it's going to take a riot squad to do it again," he is reported to have shouted. George Frost, motorcycle officer, quickly silenced the man and took him to city jail. Stanley Molick, 36 years old, 1155 Louis street, was accused by Patrolman Charles Smith of tipping over chairs and tables in a restaurant at Mt. Ephraim avenue and Everett street. When Smith said that Molick was intoxicated "early every Saturday night" Judge Bertman sent him to jail for 20 days.
