today. THE JURY IS attempting to determine whether Mike Gribble, 21, and Jack 28, are guilty of shooting Deputy Frank Jordan, 23, from behind while he investigated a burglary the brothers were allegedly committing at Drug in 'Pe-gram, last Feb. 4. Deliberations yesterday fol burglary of that pharmacy?" Martin asked. "YES, I WAS." Mike Gribble said he was standing just outside the pharmacy door with a walkie-talkie when he heard shotgun blasts.

He said his brother, Jack, was inside the store and Allen was stationed across the street as a lookout. Gribble testified that he earlier admitted to the shooting in a statement to investigators because he was afraid of Allen. "A man that could do what he did the shooting is capable of anything," Mike Gribble testified. With his eyes red and his lips trembling, he testified that he' decided to implicate Allen yesterday because "I didn't want my little girl to think I was a murderer." sfiM "All SWEATS 'Ta 5:10 lSO 1" All DAY TUISOAYI Chancellor Says 'Ernest'.

Allen High ruled yesterday. And Show Biz, the company that markets Pop Goes the Country, may go ahead and distribute 26 programs already taped featuring Varney as a comedian to the approximately 100 television stations that air the show. AUBREY MAYHEW, who became Varney's agent Jan. 1, 1981, had sought an injunction to keep the television commercials and shows off the air, contending they violate his contracts with Varney. "We're insisting that they stop using our property," said Ed White, attorney for RRT, and Dream City Music, the two companies for which Mayhew signed Varney.

But High, while promising to set an early trial date in the lawsuit, ruled that if the two companies are. proven to be in the right in their complaint against Varney, "the proper remedy would be to award them damages. When you have a situation where the remedy available affords adequate relief, an injunction is not proper." ASKED AFTERWARD for his assessment of the hearing, Varney grinned and said, "I'm no legal mind. I do commercials." Joe Lackey attorney for Varney, told High that Mayhew did not so much as telephone his client for 15 months. Then he saw Varney in the TV commercials and suddenly wanted 50 of his earnings, the lawyer said.

"How is a man supposed to live from March of 1981 to July of 1982?" asked Lackey. "There was no contact."

POLICE HAVE identified Mike Gribble as the triggerman who fired from across the street while Jack Gribble was inside the store. Mike Gribble, from the witness stand yesterday, denied killing Jordan. Mike Cribble's attorney, Henry Martin, asked the jurors in his closing argument to use "logic" in their deliberations to keep a second "tragedy" from occurring. "His Jordan's death was unnecessary and tragic, but it is not our place here to cause another tragedy," Martin said. JACK CRIBBLE'S attorney, Henry Todd, told the jury there was "no proof" that his client fired the fatal shots.

The reopening next January of the General Electric plant here will return to work 235 persons employed at the facility when it closed temporarily last September, plant officials said yesterday.

However, 160 additional workers laid off prior to the plant's shutdown will not be recalled, said Larry Jackson, employee and community relations spokesmanor the plant. The air conditioner manufac turing facility closed Sept. 18. Plant officials cited a high inventory from poor sales caused by an unseasonably cool summer as the reason for the work stoppage. Plant officials had predicted that the facility would not resume operations until after the first of the year.

The date now scheduled for the reopening is Jan. 1 8, Jackson sa id. "We were operating at a reduced rate in September because of the high inventory build-up," Jackson said. "We will stay at that reduced level to meet 1983 sales, but the some 160 workers furloughed in August will not be recalled."

fAn rffii Judge Takes Matters Into Own Hands By CATHERINE HANCOCK After waiting three years for the money to renovate badly needed office space, Juvenile Court Judge Richard Jenkins has taken matters into his own hands. Armed with paint donated by the West Nashville Kiwanis Club and helped by two inmates of the Metro Workhouse, Jenkins has had the vacant third floor of the Metro Office Building on Second Avenue, South painted and plans to go as far with the renovation as donations will allow. "IT JUST DIDNT seem like we were getting anywhere," Jenkins said yesterday. "We were kind of sitting on the hold button for so long that we were afraid we'd be on hold a year from now." Metro officials decided in 1979 that the court's cramped administrative offices, which occupy the lower floors of the building, could expand into the third sto-; ry. But as Metro budgets have tightened and other capital improvements have been given, higher priority, the expansion has been lost in the shuffle.

IN THE CURRENT fiscal year budget, renovation of the third floor for Juvenile Court use is slated for funding in fiscal 1986. Three Juvenile Court employ-. ees part of a new special unit that will develop treatment ommendations after juveniles have been convicted of offenses are already using the space. Although it will not be possible to do construction on the third floor without Metro money, Jenkins said, he hopes that addi-' tional donations combined with furniture and a few room dividers Juvenile Court already has make it possible to use the third floor to alienate the over- Steak Monterey Tender sirloin steak smothered in sauteed onions, mushrooms and melted Monterey Jack cheese. $7.50 Chicken Supreme Tender boneless chicken breasts topped with mushrooms, green peppers, i diced tomatoes, scallions and melted cheese.
