CLARK SENTENCED TO LIFE IN PRISON SAN DIEGO, April 2—E.Drew Clark, tried and found guilty of the murder of George E. Schick, wealthy realtor, was today sentenced to life imprisonment in Folsom prison by Superior Judge Edgar Luce. Application of Arthur Dorn, defense counsel, for a writ of appeal was granted. Pending review and decision by the higher court, Clark will be held in the county jail at San Diego. Judge Luce excoriated Clark for his many contradictory stories, for his conduct with the wife of the missing man, and declared the unexplained possession of Schick's jewelry was ample evidence to prove the realtor was murdered, despite the fact there was no witness to the crime and that no trace of the body was ever found. "That story about the jewelry was all a lie," Clark said as he arose to be sentenced. P.J.Driscoll, alias "Red" Fitzsimmons, Los Angeles newsboy and prizefighter, pleaded not guilty to perjury this morning before Judg.Luce and was held to trial under $1500 bail. Driscoll had testified to seeing George Schick on the streets at Los Angeles several times within the last six months. All other evidence tended to show Schick dropped completely from sight over a year ago.
