One of them, Fred Ronkey, aged 36, was charged with non support, and was scored by Judge Saxe who told him he should be med to be living on aimlessly, going to the state farm and neglecting his wife and family. He would be much happier if he | lived with his wite and children and supported them properly. Ronkey said he has been em- ployed at a gasoline station at Hart- ford avenue and North street for $15 a week but he wants to find a more lucrative position so that he can go housekeeping with his family..
