. [ Youth Rominds Policeman of QUOTES LAW TO COP Lawper's Remark But Is Hod During the trial of a police court case Monday, Judge W. F. Mangan, defending & man who had refused to move when ordered to do so by an officer, with the resuit that a scuffle ensued, made the statement that there was no law which compels one or two persons from: standing on the street unless they are creating a Jdisturbance or blocking traffic. An- toni Romani, aged 16, of 121 Whit- ing street, having learned of this declaration, reminded Officer An- thony Ustach of it last night when the officer attempted to disperse several young men who had as- sembled in front of a store at the corner of Cherry and Whiting streets. Romani, according to the officer, walked as far as the crosswalk and would not continue on his way, al- though his companions dispersed. He t0ld the officer he was waiting for a friend and when the officer insist- ~d that he move, Romani defied him, with the result that he was arrested. In reply to Prosecuting Attorney Woods, Romani said he and his friends had been at the corner from s o'clock until 9:45, when the offi- cer disperscq them, “What were you doing?” Mr. Woods asked. “Just chewing the fat,” Romani replied “Well, it must have been pret well chewed in an hour and a half,” Mr. Woods rejoined. Judge Saxe told Romanl that in the future, when an officer orders him to move, he should do so, and it is not good policy to stand on rights he does not know whether he has or not. In this instance, he sus- pended judgment. Jakubinas Case Continned A continuance for one week was ordered in the case of Frank Jaku- hinas, aged 51, of 353 Chestnut street charged with assaulting his wife vith a dangerous weapon. Attorney Thomas J. Cabelus asked that the hond be reduced from $5,000 to 500 and Prosecuting Attorney Woods offered no objection. Judge Saxe sanctioned the reduction. Attorney Cabelus said Mrs. Jakubinas is on the road to recovery. The non-support case of Fred Gigliottl, aged 22, of 105 Clark street, was continued until Tuesda: January 17. Sergeant P. A. McAvay made the arrest last evening, and Attorney Thomas F. McDonough ap- peared for Gigliotti. Mrs. Gigliotti was not in court, but Attorney Me- Donough said he wanted the case continued at any rate. The Gigliottl's have been married only a few months, it is said.

Newington Man Taken Into Custody While On Rampage in Home Gardens ! John Evanich, aged about 45 years, of Home Gardens, Newington, was arrested yesterday afternoon by Constable R. V. Halleran of New- ington, and lodged in the local po- lice station on charges of drunken ness and breach of the peace. He will be arraigned in Newington town court Saturday night. Evanich, who has a court record in Newington, is said to have created a disturbance yesterday by chasing his neighbors. He is said to hav threatened to put one woman in frying pan, and later he was seen tantalizing a dog, which he struck on the head with a flat boad when | the animal left the protection of the dog house. Evanich has been drinking for | the past few days, and according to the authoritis, he purchased his liquor in New Britain. He had sonu in a bottle in his pocket when ar- rested. . He states that, as | KNOCKED DOWN BY AUTOS Two Men Painfully Hurt at Miffer- ent Points On Stanley Street Within Hour of Each Other Joseph Mayeska, aged 47, of 101 Winter street, and Hollis Smith, aged 21, of 21 Black Rock Avenue, were knocked down by automobiles last evening, and painfully injured. | The accidents occurred within one hour of each other and were simi- lar in nature. About 6 o'clock, Mayeska was crossing Stanley street, about 200 feet north of East Main street, and stepped into the path of a car driv- en by Charles Marshall of 41 Win- ship street, Hartford. The fender and one headlight struck him and threw him to the ground, causing abrasions and bruises, for which treatment was given at New Britain General hospital. The injuries were not considered serious. £ About 7 o'clock, an automobile driven by Leroy F. Strong of 251 Wells street, struck Smith on Stan- ley street, between Church and | Dwight streets. Strong reported to the police that he did not see Smith soon enough to avoid the accident.

RBow and Arrow Fxpert As an archery expert he has taught between 25 and 30 boys to become proficient in the use of the bow and arrow. He was the organ- izer and president of the Scarlet Archers’ club, which met at his home every Monday evening, and supesvised archery target practice at his home several times a week. Last fall he attracted the attention of Joseph Hergstrom, physical director at the Y. M. C. A, and with the latters’ aid and counsel was plan- ning to widen the interest in arch- ery and to enlist the facilities of the Y. M. C. A. in this connection. As a craftsman, he has made and sold hundreds of bows and arrows. He maintained a workshop in fi rear of his home, and so busy was he in this work that he ofttimes had to procure help. It was his ambition, by the sale of hows and arrows, to finance his own education in the Yale school of art, which he planned to enter next fall.

He was a former member of Troop 2, Boy Scouts, when it was organized by Frederic L. Fay. In the high school he was known as a quiet boy, interested in school |athletics as & supporter and specta- |tor, but never as a participant. He {was said to rank high in his art studies, and at the Washburn resi- dence are several specimens of his skill in high school art studies. Said Archery Saved His Life Harold was not an unusually ro- bust boy. Last May it was feard that his heart and lungs had grown weak. It was then he took up arch- ery. “Archery saved my life,” he told a Herald representative in an interview last September. few years ago,doctors gave me but three years to live, my chest was so weak. Now I am as hard as iron.” On December 17, when he plan- ned to make a number of bows and |arrows to flll orders he had for |Christmas gifts, he was taken {ll and |spent two weeks In bed.
