Unofficially, however, stated the secretary, members of the board of directors are in favor of parking meters only if the city will also provide parking lots. Also discussed was the possibility of locating the chamber in an office on a cooperative basis with two other civic agencies. Mr. Cook expects to contact the heads of the city recreation department and the Community Chest to see if such a plan would be acceptable to them. The present Chamber of Commerce office is located in the show room of a local automobile agency.

Crandell had left the hall when she became ill. She was followed by Waterbury. and when Crandall discovered that she was not in the hall, he. too. descended the stairs into the street.

Crandell. who was one of the witnesses called to the stand. asserted that he became furious when he discovered Waterbury embracing and kissing his wife. He admitted striking the blow, and when he saw what had happened, he, with the assistance of others. took the injured man to the hospital.

The Crandells, who had been separated for some time. according to the testimony, had come to Quincy to spend the week with the Waterbury couple. Officers Ernest H. Legge and Robert J. Moore of the city police force, related their version of the affair as revealed in their investigation.

Other witnesses who testified were Mrs. Nora Waterbury and Mrs. Betty Crandall. Mrs. Waterbury been declared that the four had always on friendly terms.

Mrs. Crandell freely related all of the incidents which had transpired. and said that she had been embraced by Waterbury, which bore out her husband's testimony that he had seen the pair standing near a tree a short distance from the entrance to the Eagles' hall. Members of the jury were Ernest W. Luse.
