MSSING HUB CAP | TRPS OPERATR Driver Canght by Sharp Eyed i Gop Fined $20 | The observant eye of Policeman Louis Harper caused the arrest early this morning of Homidas Parenteau, aged 26, of 16 Pasley street, Chico- pee, Mass., who was fined $25 and costs by Judge Henry P. Roche in police court on the charge of reck- leas driving. Judgment was suspend- ed on the count of evading respon- sibility. Officer Daniel Cosgrove testified that he was on West Main street, | near Vine, about $:15 o'clock last evening when an automobile passed at a rapld rate of speed, and he raised his night stick as a signal to the driver to slowdown. At the cor- | ner of Lexington street, A. Parker | Abbe of 35 Stecle street, had brought ! his car to a stop to allow two cars coming towards the center of the city to pass before he turned left into Lexington strect. Another car, coming from behind, sideswiped Mr. | Abbe’s car and damaged it, yet the driver continued on and appeared to increase the speed of his cur instcad of reducing it, according to Mr. Ab- | be. | Ofticer Harper, who was patrolling | ‘West Main street on a motorcycle, was given a hub cap which had been turned over to Officer Cosgrove at | the scene of the collision and sev- ! eral hours later, Officer Hamper was | going along Main street when he| saw a car with the right side hub cap missing, parked in front of a| restaurant. He believed it to be the | car that struck Mr. Abbe's machine but being without information to the registration, he consulted Officer | Cosgrove, who gave him the num- bers, and when they were found to be those of the car parked on Main street Officer Harper arrested Par- | enteau, who admitted he had been driving on West Main street earlier in the evening. | Aaron W. Carlson of 74 South | Burritt street testified that he was walking on the south side of \\’0.&" Main street and saw Mr. Abbe bring | his car to a stop before making the | turn into Lexington street. He also | saw other car going at a fast rate of speed and expecting 1t would | strike Mr. Abbe's car, he looked around. There was no question that Parenteau was going too fast, | the witness said. | Judge Roche held that the dam- age to the cars was so slight that | Parenteau probably did not realize there had been an impact and for | that reason he would not hold him | for evading responsibility. Parenteau | ~was not represented by counsel and made no statement. | Steps on Gas Louls Swanson, aged 40, of 173 Park strect pleaded not guilty to charges of reckless driving and fail- ure to obey a policeman’s signal. Officer James McCue testified that a car going Bouth on Elm street about 11:45 o'cléck Saturday night was on the left side of the road and he stepped off the curb near the in- tersection of East Main street and called: “Hey, where are you going?"” The car continue across East Main street at the rate of 30 or 35 miles an hour, the officer said. Thomas McKeon of 605 East Main strect testified that he was standing with Officer McCue and saw the car pass. He estimated the speed at 25 to 30 miles an hour. The officer call- ed to him but the driver did not stop. Swanson testified that he was driv- ing south on Elm street at about 18 miles an hour and the only officer he saw was on Elm street, south of East Main. He did not hear any- one call to him. He admitted that | he “stepped on the gas a little,” t cross East Main street but there wa no traffic in sight. Recalled to the witness stand by Prosecuting Attorncy Woods, Officer McCue said the officer Swanson re- ferred to was George Collins, who was putting in a dity call at Elm and East Main streets. Judge Roche imposed a fine of $25 and costs for reckless driving and 1 $5 and costs for failure to obey the officer’s signal. Operates Under Influcnce Charles Gillon, aged 24, of 34 Cedar street, pleaded guilty to the charge of operating an automobile while under the influence of liquor and was fined $100 and costs of which $50 was remitted and sen- tenced to jail for 5 days. Bonds for appeal were fixed at $200. Officer Dombrauskas testifled that Gillou drove a car on the trolley tracks at East, Dwight and Jubilee streets about 2:20 Sunday morning, attracting the officers attention. He was very unsteady and unfit to drive a car, the officer testified. Sergeant Feeney testified that Gil- lon was under the influence of liquor when brought to police headquarters and admitted having had wine. Judge W. F. Mangan, representing Gillon, told Judge Roche it was a case of being unable to drink rather than one of drinking to excess. The ung man was out with friends Saturday night and there was wine consumed. He has learned his les- son and has promised Lie will never drink again. Judge Roche remarked that the court has practically a fixed policy ot imp)sing jail sentences in these cases. The fact that the plea Wi one.of gullty was taken into consid- eration in fixing the fine, he said. Speeder Fined $13 Charles Kordick, aged 32, of 161 Broad street, pleaded guilty to the charge of speeding and was fined $15 and costs. Motorcycle Police- man Alfred Tanguay testifled that he followed Kordick on Broad street about 1 p. m. yesterday and clocked his speed at 40 miles an hour. He turned into Burritt street and in- creased the speed to 55 miles an hour. Kordick declined to make a statement. TWO PL.

Polick was held up by two young men, whose ages he placed at from 20 to 25 years on the Mount Vernon road in this} town, and relieved of $30 in cash.
