Sensational charges of gay midnight
particle. broken discipline and Ina~
rlnes asleep on duty in the shadow
of White Court are expected to re-
sult in a general investigation of the
marine guard sent here to protect
President Coolidge during his stay
at the summer White House.
Two developments marked the
situation yesterday:
Captain Adolphus Andrews, com-
mander of the Presidential yacht
Mayflower. announced that a court
martial board will be selected from
the officers of the President's own
ship to try Corporal Chontos and
Private Key. the marines alleged to
have been found asleep on duty at
midnight on the summer White
House grounds.
Lieutenant Edgar Allen Poe. Jr..
jauniy commander of the marines,
admitted that he had given i"a.
party" to North Shore society folks
in the marine headquarters at Gal-
loupes Point, near White Court. but
he insisted that it was neither gay.
late nor liquor-served. .
Coupled with these developments
was the report that one of Poe's
prominent male guests at the party
heaped such a flow of insult upon
one of the colored chefs "borrowed
from the Mayflower for the occa-
sion that. the chef chased the guest
with a knife. . -
Members of the marine guard
who served as waiters that night as.
sort that liquor was served and they
declare that they know of.their own
knowledge that it had "a kick” in
it. Lieutenant Poe said that the
charge that the marines were forced
to‘ take the canvas covers of the pup
tents and make an arch,through
‘which the party guests could pass
‘without detection is "entirely base.
