Tierney's 5th Drunk Charge -- Film star Lawrence Tierney (27), is sitting glumly in an inebriates cell under orders to "look at the other drunks sharing the cell and meditate on their fate." Judge Fay told Tierney, "They were once as good-looking, as straight and youthful as you. "You're headed for the same fate that has overtaken them". He sentenced Tierney to 60 days for intoxication, but suspended all but five days of the sentence - the number of times Tierney has been up for drunkeness this year. October 10, 1940.
