The trill also resulted in acquittal for Durooher‘: ctr-defendant, Jos- eph Moore. 50. a special guard‘ at Ebbete Field.

They were accused of beating John Christian, 23-year-old war veteran, who said in court that he was ' owu throughout Brooklyn aa the Dodgers’ loudest critic. Judge Louis Goldstein, who termed the verdict fa fair and just one." told the jury: “l am glad for the- eake of the Brooklyn baseball team that their manager has been vindicated and that no discredit has been placed upon the great American game of baseball." After adlournment Durocher was "mobbed" by admirers. They pounded. him on the back and shook his hand while cheering like enthusiastic bieacherltes. One eld- erly wmnan wept copiously as she shouted her congratulations. According to testimony at the trial. a civil action brought by Christian against Durocher had been settled out of court for $6,- 750. The Dodger manager said he nerd the money because the Brook- lyn Club had told him it would not renew his contract unless the suit was settled.
