GALVESTON. Oct. 12.—(P)-
When Jimmy Clinch, 24, was assass-
inated he had gone to keep an ap-
pointment with a Galveston police
officer. His sister, Mrs. Mary
Yeager, charged today.
Mrs. Yeager Friday told her story
to County Attorney Owne Baker, to
Police Chief Tony Messina and later
to newspaper men.
“My brother said the meeting was
to take place at 45th street and Ave -
nue P,” the sister said.
Clinch was assassinated at 42nd
street and Avenue P 12; three
blocks from the place he was sup-
posed to meet the policeman.
After hearing Mrs. Yeager's story.
County Attorney Barker said that
he would start a thorough grand
jury investigation into Clinch's
death.
The seven lead slugs that tore in-
to the upper part of Clinch's back
were fired from a special type of
shell containing "riot" bullets.
Clinch had been hiding for two
weeks because of his fear that gang-
sters would kill him.
