ARCHIE GEE CHARGED

WITH BEING DRUNK IN PUBLIC

     Archie Gee, a white man, was placed in jail Wednesday evening on a charge of being drunk in a public place.  Gee stated next morning that jail life didn't agree with him; that as soon as the doors closed behind him he was seized with a congestive chill and that he was not able to stand trial.  He was given further time to permit his temperature to become normal before putting him through the mill.
