Kvaiuvllle, counsel for Avery, to dismiss the rhnrges was denied. Arguments hy Gill and by City Attorney Robert J. Cunningham closed the formal part of the hearing. The charges against Avery rest largely upon allegations of his associations with Mrs. Betty Grady, 32.

who was with him at the time he had an automobile accident on March 5, 1955. and again on May 28. when the two were in boat on Rock River when It was involved In a crash with boat. City Attorney Cunningham was successful In reopening the city's ease to receive testimony of Mrs, Hartte Mlllus. 219 Court, wife of the pastor of St.

John's Lutheran Church, but an affidavit alleging that Albert a tenant of Mrs. Grady, had withheld vital Information at the previous hearing was not allowed. Gill objected strongly to the city's claim that he had "tampered" with the witness, and said that "there Is reason why we should be penalized by allowing the city to bring In by the back door what It eould not bring In by the front door." ningham charged in the affidavit that Punrel, under pressure, had "toned down" his testimony at the! hearing June 14. Keen al Woman's noma Mrs. Mlllus testified that she aaw Avery at the home of Mrs.

Grady, who lived across the street, from the parsonage at 219 Pease Court of times." The frequent visits, she said, dated from 1951 and before she knew the identity of Avery. The weekend of July 4. 1954, she aatd, "atandi out" In her mem, ory because she witnessed Avery and Mrs. Grady leaving at p.m. on Friday, July 2, not to he seen again until after the holiday.

At 11 p.m. on July 4, she said, aha heard "talking, crying and holler-j ing" at the Grady home, and them Mrs. Avery eame to the parsonage to use the telephone. "She was so upset she did not know what she was saying," Mlllus testified. "It seemed she had Just caught her husband, coming home from a weekend with Mrs.

Grady." She salt! she heard the telephone conversation from a distance of a doren feet and that Mrs. Avery had referred to Mrs. Grady as a trump" and hy other names which she was excused from repenting. Crossexamined by Gill, Mrs, Mlllus admitted that her testimony was based upon "outward appearances GIU read from the Bible, St. Mark 12: 28-31, containing the passage of "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself," and St.

John 8: 1M1 In which Jesus told the woman. "Go and sin no more." asked If the witness had visited Mrs. Grady while she was in a cast for four months after the ar- ctdenl In 1955, and received a negative answer. Mrs. Mlllus said that "we don't condemn these people," and "would gladly see them mend thoirj ways." She said she has nothing against them personally but that she thought "the moral code was not upheld." "Do you think they broke any of the Ten Commandments?" Gill asked.

Soma time was given to questioning her about building Improvements at Mrs. Grady's property, which Avery has said he did for her under a work agreement. Gill entered a motion to strike out all of the testimony of Mrs.

Kalph Hilkin, a fireman, took I the witness stand under protest, and said that hi" had worked with Avery on painting and construction. He said he spent three hours In 1950 hanging a door at an apartment of Mrs. Grady, but that this was the only time he had worked there. He said that employment of firemen by Mrs. Grady was the subject of considerable "kidding and Joshing" at the fire station, but that It was "no secret" that such work was done.

Arguments of Attorneys In his argument. City Atty. Cunningham said that the city makes "no claim that Avery wns not a good fireman," but said that questionable associations is detrimental to the good order of the department, and that lack of respect for a captain could mean that firemen might not "respond at a crucial time." He said that It is necessary that there be "deep respect between the men and their captain." Conduct such as charged against Avery, he said, tends to break flown discipline. "Mrs. Avery has stood up for her husband in a manner which he docs not deserve." Cunningham said.

"He was not a good husband by any standards I know anything about." Gill demanded that the commission limit Its consideration of the icase exactly to the specific charges. He said that the rule requiring firemen to obtain permission to leave the city Is often flouted, and that the practice is to "keep reasonably available for call." Avery was guilly of nothing "subversive" to Ihe good of the department, he argued, reading a Supreme Court decision on what constitutes subversive conduct from the appeal In the Janesvllle police Investigation of 1943. I Avery's artions, he argued, "had no effect on the department." "The city rase is not one of substantiating the charges, hut rather of character assassination," he declared.
