Paintings such as the "Coast Guard Lawyer 'knows his rights'; can't have 'em in stadium By Hubert Ogden. Apparently, there is no end of "Incidents" between the stadium police and those who must have their firewater at the games. The latest is a threat of lawyer .victim to get Sergeant Reglers job. A certain lawyer in the state was caught in the stadium during the last game with a quart bottle of alcohol, (cheap stuff, too). He threatened the special officers that he would "get" their and Regler's jobs for it These special officers then released him. Regler sharply criticized his men for not bringing the man into his office and having him arrested after he had made such threats. The sergeant then waited until his telephone rang, hoping the mouth piece would come to his office to complain, so he could arrest him. Phone call. The phone call was from the state liquor commission. They said the lawyer was in their office, that he knew his rights and was protesting against the liquor seiz ure. Regler told them to send him to his office and he would give him the bottle. The lawyer re fused to call for It knowing very well he would be arrested If he went to Regler's office. A conclusion to the Incident came when thelawyer phoned the officers and apoligized for his be havior, commending Sergeant Reg' ler and his men for the fine work they do in handling the stadium crowds.
