The placing of' false alarm or crank calls is a misdemeanor, and the fire department could file charges against anyone using 911 for non-emergency use. "I really don't think we'll have to file on anyone- said Childress "but. i circumstances warranted we would do so." He said the system appears to be working quite successfully over-all and it should get even better as local residents get used to the fact that it is for emergencies only. "I believe it will be even more successful as more and more cities install 911," he said. "Then, you will nave only one number to remember to get emergency service almost anywhere you go." of Midland talking.

Another policeman, Bill Mur ray, told the jury there had been much "side taking" In the police department since the last election of a police chief. He had overheard several offi cers plotting to testify alike in order to get James removed from his post, Murray said. Detective Lou Balentine testi fied he was warned by James that an investigator for the dis trict attorney might "change the ballistics" on clothing worn by ffiirnTOfimFr7KVK1 The police chief said that if McNelly 's mother gave her son'l" shirt to Charles Martin, the investigator; Martin would change the bullet holes because he did not like James, Balentine testified. Martin Is a former member of the city's police department. Detective Bennie Plummer told the court that the defendant had asked him to confiscate Mc- Nelly's clothing and "change the ballistics.

Plummer said he got the cloth ing, but did not alter the bullet holes. A Texas Department of Public Safety chemist said tests had shown no powder particles on the shirt McNelly wore the night of the shooting. almost every instance we have found that these calls were placed by children, without their parents' knowledge." He said the department keeps a special file on every call that is traced and, thus far, there1 hasTioFbeen a repearcall from any of the numbers on file. "What puzzles me," said the chief, "is how most of these children can dial 911. Most of the calls in the last couple of months were from pre-elemen-tary children who can't even read.

I think they must just dial us by accident." The chief noted that during the summer months there were a lot of calls from children in the 10 to 15 ace croup but. for the most part, these calls ended about the time school started. Fire Chief Pleased By Success Of 911 SAN ANGELO (AP) Thei trial of San Angelo Police Chief Melvin James came to a sudden halt today when James entered a plea of guilty to the charge of aggravated assault: and was fined $1,000. At the same time he submitted his resignation. James was being tried for as sault with intent murder in connection with the wounding of 17-year-old Negro youth.

John McNelly. The trial began in 119th Dis trict Court before a jury Mon- dayrJameswas to-have-aken thstaffd-46dayv- During a morning conference, the state agreed to drop the assault -to murder charge and James pleaded guilty to the lesser charge of aggravated assault. Judge Glen R. Lewis assessed the fine. uspecf In Ruled Sane Doyle McCullough, a 23-year- old Odessa resident, was declared sane Wednesday and ordered to stand trial on a burglary charge.

District Judge K. L. McKim took the case away from the seven-woman, five-man jury Wednesday before the state presented its case. McKim said the defense had failed to raise any legal doubts about McCullough's sanity at the present time. Dr.

James H. Kreimcyer. ac ting superintendent of the Big Spring State Hospital, was the only witnesses called during the one-day sanity trial. He said thought McCullough was only acting and pretending to be in sane. In his opinion.

Dr. Kreimever said, McCullough is able to tell right from wrong and able to assist his attomey-iirpirparing defense. No date was immediately tor trial on the. burglary charge. McCullough is charged with breaking into the office of Dr.

Marvin Grice. 313" North Alleghaney, on Dec. 20, 1969. McCullough also faces another trial to have five years' pro- oation on a narcotics conviction prior to being nabbed on the burglary count. McKim indicated he would seek an early trial on the pro nation case after McCullough said he wished to hire another attorney.

'M By GARY STEMM American Staff Writer Despite the fact that more than half of the calls logged last month on Odessa's 911 telephone were classified as crank or information, calls, Fire ChieTBill Childresnays-the 9n system continues to be a success. The system was designed to make it easier for local residents to obtain emergency service by providing a single, easy-to-remember number to call for the fire, police and sheriff's departments or for an ambulance. The number is supposed to be used only in case of emergency but in October, 299 of 576 calls were of a non-emergency nature. "Most of the non-emergency calls were from persons requesting information," said Childress.

"Some of them were crank calls but not many. "Although we listed fhtr 299 calls under the cank and information heading, it's really hot a true figure as far as crank calls are concerned." The chief said the number actual crank calls has been decreasing steadily for the past few months. i "Most of the ones we get now are from childrenr," he said. "In most, cases, they don't say anything. They just hold the line for a few seconds then hang up." The 911 calls-are received by the fire department dispatcher who has the capability, by simply pressing a button, to "lock" the call into the system, Then, even If the caller hangs up, the dispatcher can contact telephone officials and have the call traced.
