Grubb. - Monett Times - 1953 - Pie Throwing in Local Cafe at 4 a.m. Isn't Amusing to Cook: There were two mad women down at Dalton's Cafe early this morning, according to a report handed to Chief Dan McDonald early today by night officers. One was Miss Rosalee Morris, night waitress and the other Mrs. Cora Bradley, night cook. Miss Morris called the police after two well-known youths had been raising a disturbance in the restaurant at about four o'clock. Miss Morris told police that they threw water on the floor. When she told them to leave they started out through the back door. In the kitchen they saw a fresh pie. Mrs Bradley, who had made the pie ordered them to lay it down. Instead they heaved it at her. Officer Gene Lambeth, who was one of the cops called to the scene, didn't have all the details of the case. He wasn't sure about where the pie landed when it was given the heave-ho. Lambeth said that the women told him they were "going down to see Tom Croddy Thursday and swear out a warrant for the arrest of the two boys." Croddy is in Lawrence, Kansas and won't return until Saturday. By that time, perhaps their tempers will be cooled down, perhaps not. In event that charges are filed, Monett will have an interesting crime story to report. It might be called "The Case of the Misguided Pie" or "Philbert Flew When He Flung the Filler." | Census Log Book News Item Phyllis Long Photo Jay Trace |
