The trouble broke out when 160 occupants of the provincial jail's mental wing clashed with guards and police. The governor, Lt.-Col. Charles Gernaey, said the riotous disturb- ance caused less than $500 dam-| age. The two-hour uprising, sparked by supper - time complaints, reached its height during a soft- ball game in the recreation area. Eight prisoners in all at- tempted to scale the 27 - foot prison wall.
