The county judge admitted the petition, which is lawful when the district judge is absent. He went farther: He issued a re straining order which, in effect, was designed to restrain the city from further obstructing the in stallation of the meters. By this time the natives were in a quandary. Proceedings re sembled a game. What fouls had been committed and who com mitted them, if any, wasn’t the question. Everyone wanted to know: What about the meters, wanted or unwanted, do we get them or don’t we? The petition drawn by Grumminger named all num bers of the council. Mayor Da vis and Attorney Griffin as defendants and hearing was set for December 2. Grummin ger charged that the Duncan representative was "threatened with jail" and that the O'Neill police department had orders to uproot the machines if they were installed. The petition prayed that the court would terminate that sort of goings-on. City Councilmen Emmet Crabb, Joe Stutz, M. J. Golden, L. M. Merriman, Norbert Uhl and Marvin Johnson were served summons. Next day—Saturday— Griffin filed in district court a petition asking the court to restrain Dun can from proceeding with the installation of the machines. Meanwhile, a generous flow of statewide publicity focused at tention on the progress of the meter melodrama. Just as a full-dress legal battle was brewing, the Duncan offi cials contacted Mayor Davis and Attorney Griffin by long dis tance phone, suggested the whole thing be called off, and Mr. Coffee ordered an O’Neill truck ing firm to load up the equip ment that had been in storage lo’ these many months. Some incoming meters, in tended to round out the origi nal order for 150 arrived Mon day but were never unloaded. cThe truck driver handed tho assignment of rounding up the frustrated machines which al most-but-not-quite got into ac tion—had initial trouble locating them. They were finally found at the Municipal airport. Somewhere along the line the storage place had been switch ed. Someone figured they had decorated city hall long enough and they were removed to the airport for some rural seasoning. The Duncan officials express ed hope no ill feeling existed and that at some later date, perhaps, meter conversations could be renewed. There was no Chopin “Funeral March” as the machines passed quietly from the scene Monday night. Only the rumble of the big truck. Gillespies Plan An Open-House (Continued from page 1.)
