Phenix City Jury Expected To Order Vice Indictments PHENIX CITY", Ala. Wl A dramatic new chapter in the tale of vice and corruption in fabulous Phenix City unfolded today with a grand jury report expected to con tain more than 500 indictments. Special Judge Walter B. Jones called Circuit Court into session to receive the first presentment three weeks after the 18-man blue ribbon jury began its Investigation of widespread racketeering. Picked teams of National Guardsmen stood ready to arrest the defendants named in the in dictments, probably the greatest number ever returned by a grand jury in Alabama. Until the arrests are made, the names of those in dicted must remain secret. Multiple indictments against some of the gambling big shots were expected to account for many of the anticipated 500-odd true bills. As many as 50 indict ments were believed likely against some. , Still others may come later In the continuing vice cleanup. Spe cial Solicitor (Prosecutor) George C. Johnson said the jury would go riplit back to work as soon as the initial report was filed. It was almost a-ioregone con cjW.on, however, that the first in tern report would contain no in dictments for the murder of anti vice crusader A. L. Patterson, whose death on June 18 started the unprecedented vice purge in Phenix City, where wide-open gam bling and other rackets flourished for years. , State authorities directing the search for Patterson's killer haven't completed their case. Grand Jury testimony is protect ed by closely guarded secrecy but the identity of many witnesses subpoenaed in the past three weeks indicated the nature of the inves tigation. There were leaders in the cru sading Russell ICounty) Better ment Assn., for example, who have charged repeatedly that rack eteers controlled election machin ery in Phenix City and infiltrated even into the jury boxes to protect their interests. Patterson, who had been nomi nated for attorney general of Ala bama on a cleanup platform, was the RBA's attorney Other witnesses included state Investigators, highway patrolmen and National Guardsmen who seized hundreds of slot machines, Am h W 1 63 1 475 COLGATE IfiENTU CREAM C4RD01 HALO SHAMPOO COLGATE rulAIANIVII HAIR TONIC M S3:49 RAPID- SHAVE I AIKOSOI lATHdt T IV II Mi I f OtODORANT L?
