Lake County Judge Overruled by High Court.
INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana, June 11.—(U.P.) A temporary writ of prohibition against Judge Bertram C. Jenkines of Lake Superior Court to forestall proposed dog racing at Hammond was issued today by the State Supreme Court.
The high court set June 22 for hearing on petition for a permanent writ and ordered the Lake County judge to show cause why it should not be granted.
Judge Jenkines granted a temporary restraining order June 8 to the Calumet Exposition Company, Inc., prohibiting Lake County and Hammond authorities from interfering with proposed operation of a dog track.
Prosecutor Fred A. Egan of Lake County appealed to the supreme court for the writ of prohibition preventing the superior court judge from acting further in the case.
