VOLATE ORY LA Gardimanskas Fined $10, Fuz e Hold tor Higher Court Twe restaurant proprietors were convicted of vielation of the liquor law, ia pelice court today, Michael Gerdimauskas, aged 37, of 17 otrest, pleading gullty and & fine of $150 and costs 484 & suspended Sall sentence of 30 days, while Salvatore Fassina of 316 otrest was bound over to the ber term of munq court in $1,600 donds as & third o!ndu. Liebler seized & bottle of Elm street yesterday, but Gardi- mauskas claimed he Rad it for his owa use, and there was absolutely no evidence of reputation or an ac- tual sle. Gardimauskas was col victed twice before on the same charge, but in consideration of his gullty and tite fact that the ‘would have difficulty proving the charge in this (instance, Mhr. the Judge BSaxe told Attorney Mau- rioe Rosenderg, representing Gardi- mauskes, to impress upon the lat- tor that he faces the possibility of & loag term in jail it he continues leaving himseif liable to arrest for liquer law violation. In the Fassina case, Ajtorney Law- rence J. Golon contended, after con- siderable evidence was before the court, that the state had falled to prove the charge, but Prosecuting Attorney Woods replied that the testimony of several policemen was 80 positive that there was no ques- tion of Fassina's gullt, not to men- tion the evidence of & man who had actually bought wine in Fazina's restaurant, known on Arch street as “the spaghetti joint.” Judge Saxe said there was some evidence before the court which, of ftself, might not be convincing, but the cumulative testimony was strong and left no doubt in his mind as to the guilt of Faszina. On the bond, Mr. Woods asked that it be raised from $1,000 to $1,500, and Attor- ney Golon tried to have it left at $1,000, pointing out that Fazzina had mét run away even though he knew full well that he would be Dound over if convicted this time. Judge Saxe felt that the $1,500 bond should be posted but eaid he would hear the testimony in the event that Fazzina was entirely unable to raise that amount. Evidence of Liquor Found Officer E. B. Kiely testified that he and Officer J. M. Liebler raided the restaurant about ' 4:20 p. m. Bept. 15. There were five men in two compartments in which are tables and chairs. Two of the men were under the influence of liquor. The officers asked Fazzina if he had liquer on the premises or sold any and received & negative reply, but a search disclosed a soda water bot- tie partly filled with liquor behind & sled which was against the wall in the kitchen. On a bench in the kitchen was a glass jug partly filled with wine, an- other glase jug with a small quantity. ot-wine, and a milk bottle about one-quarter full of wine. Fazzina told the officers he had the wine for his own use and disclaimed all knowledge of the presence of the bottle of liquor although the name of the soda dealer on the bottle was the same as that on other bottles in the place. Prosecuting Attorney Woods vead the results of the chemist's analysis of the wine and liqior. The alco- helic content of the liquor was $9.32 per cent by volume and 30.50 per cent by weight, while one sample of the wine was found to have an al- coholic content of 6.55 per cent by volume and 5.36 per cent by weight, another was 7.07 ‘per cent by volume and 6.3¢ per cent by weight, and the third was 3.10 per cent ‘by volume and 2.50 per cent by weight. The analysis, according to Officer Kiely was made on the insistence of Attorney Golon. Saw Customer Stagger Out. Relative to the reputation of the restaurant, the officer said he had sat In an automobile a few times and seen men come out under the influence of liquor and he had a direct admjssion from one man that he had purchased two cups of wine for 25 cents a cup. Cross examined by Attorney Golon. the officer admitted that he did no: sé¢ the men goding in and so he could not testify as to where they got their drink. That it is posaible te buy food in the place, the officer admitted, but there 15 no large cof- fee ura in the kitchen, only an ordinary household coffee pot. From the street it is not possible to ste the occupants of the com- partments, the efcer said. . As to the condition of the men sten coming out the officer said he noticed that they wers staggering. Asked whether they were drunk, the officer said he does not consider a MAn drunk it he is able to walk and take care of himself, but it he falls down and cannot get up, he is drunk. Officer Liebler's testimony was similar to that of Officer Kiely in all respects. In reply to Attorney Golon the officer said there were no cups of - coftes on the bench in the kitchen the time of the raid. He smelled of of Connecticut, Sta County of ln.mm the 20th day of 92! to said Court, at Hartford in ¥ on the first Tuesday of October, 1928, claiming a divorce, and custody of minor children, 1t appearing to and being found by the Ibecribing authority that the whereabouty, of the defendant is unkmown to the plaintift.

RAYMOND 6. CALNEN, Amistast Clork of said Court. were seated and did not get the odor of alcohol. Tells of Heavy Saturday Trede Officer Delbert Veley testified that he has been on day duty for five months on Arch street as far south as Winthrop street. He has been men of drinking habits go into the restaurant snd has observed that there is heavy patronage on Saturday afternoons. Among the custome: re men who live at “101 Ranch,” so-caljed, at 90 Arch street. He could not say that he saw the same men go in sober and come out drunk but he had lunmuno\nut ‘wine could be purchased in the place for 25 ceats & drink. Ofticer Bdward Carroll testified that he has been on the Arch street beat since June from 7 p. m. to 4 a. m. and he had observed that a number of men came out of the restaurant under the influence of liquor, especially Saturday nights, He ejected a number of young men one night because they were under the influence of liquor and Fazsina told him they had brought their drink with them. He warned Fas- zina that if he was selling liquor he must discontinue. Fe admitted in reply to Attorney Golon that he had never seen liquor sold on the prem- ises in the four visits he made to the place, Officer William O'Day testified that he heard men arguing in front of the restaurant on two ,occasions. A man in the group told him “his &irl” was working in the place and it was “a booze joint" and Re had bought liquor there. Attorney Gol- on objected to the admissfon of the officer's testimony and Judge Saxe ruled it out when the officer ad- mitted that Fazzina was not present when the man made the accusa- tions. “101 Ranchers” Like Place Sergeant T. J. Feeney testified that he has been on Arch street a number of times and has seen men from “101 Ranch” go in and out of the restaurant. They did not stay long enough to have a meal, he said. He never received a com- plaint about the place but he told Ofticers Kiely and Liebler to watch it and get a search warrant. Hjalmar Carlson of * 74 Church street, who was arrested for breach of the peace in the restaurant five weeks ago, testified that he bought wine on two occasions with his meals and paid 25 cents a drink. He admitted that he had Fazzina had a disagreement because the lat- ter refused to sell him some wine on a particular occasion. He often saw men served wine wi(’ their meals in the restaurant but/he could not say whether they paid for it or note. At this point the state rested and Attorney Golon moved for a dis- charge. Judge Saxe denied the mo- tion and Fazzina was called to the stand. He testified that he did not n the place but merely worked there for $25 a week and his board. He denied ever having sold Carlson any alcoholic drink, and in reply to Prosecuting Attorney Woods he said he used the wine in salad. He was surprised to have the police find the boftle in which was the whisky. FLOATS WILL MEET ON CENTER STREET Must Be At Starting Point Not Later Than 2 p. m. James E.

Ginsburg Feted At Bachelor Dinner Approximately fifty-five friends and colleagues of Attorney Harry Ginsburg gathered last night around the banquet table at the Sequin Golf club, Maple Hill. at a party given in his honor. The constant downpour prevented the party from partici- pating in a golf tournament which was to have taken place in the aft- ernoon.

The men were told and then |J their wives arrived in a dody, un- invited and unexpected, interrupted the meeting, discharged the Rotary sang their own songs, took the au- thority of the presidency away from Rev. William H. Alderson, forced the club speaker, advertised as Sen- ator Merriwaite from Missouri off speaker, who addressed the women only, permitting the men to listen in but forcing them to submit to the indignity of being ignored, made their own motions, réad their own treasurer's report, elected their own president and literally ran the meet- ing. It was all & surprise to the Ro- tarians. Once each year it has be- come the custom for the wives of Rotarians Yo invite themselves to a Rotary meeting and in explanation today they said they found it nec-| essary to come in and show their ‘“‘poorer halves” how to run a meet- ing. The club meeting opened in the same manner as all meetings do. The only thing to indicate anything unusual was a white ribbon roping Off & section of chairs and tables where Rotarians were forbidden to sit. “Just to separate the sheep from the goats,” was the only ex- planation given. Rev. Mr. Alderson ‘opened his meeting with the singing of “Amer- ica” and prayer. As the Rotarians sat down and began to eat their lunch, their wives, who had previ- ously assembled in the Elks' hall across the street, marched in, head- ed by a seven piece orchestra. Ben I Parker, who usually plays for the Rotary club, was summarily eject- ed from the piano stool and an in- terloping musician took his place. The women stood and sang “Amer- ica” with a great deal less volume and, probably due to a slight nerv- ousness which soon wore off, less tone than the men. They sat down. |1 Mrs. Av A. Mills took the chair and announced that the meeting was open for the election of a presi- dent. Mrs. Leon A. Sprague was elected president and took the chair. At this point someone in the Rotary club realized how things were go- ing. Secretary T. P. McAuliffe in a brief address, stating that since there seemed to be a division of authority it was only fitting that each presiding officer have a gavel, presénted Mrs. Sprague with a large box, which he said contained her emblem of authority. The box con- tained a rolling pin, tied with lav- ender ribbon. Mrs. Mills, as acting treasurer, then read the following “treasurer’s report.” ‘ Quarterly report, New Britain Ro- tary club, September 20, 1928: Cash on hand last report.. $267.39 Received from dues 70.00 Received from fines ; 3.75 Received for badge B 1.75 Total receipts wreee. $342.89 Expenaes Centribution, 100 tickets, benefit New Haven Chil- dren’s Home Deficiency last ladies’ lunch- eon, due to men not pay- ing for tickets ..

They also voted that fines of 75 cents for each woman for coming in late and not wearing a badge be charged to the husbands and dedueted from the next weekly allowance of the wives. Both mo- tions were carried unanimously, the president refusing te entertain mo- tions from the men. At this point Rev. Mr. Alderson having recovered his breath in time to catch a waiter who was getting away with his pie, arose and an- nounced, with what turned out to be his last chance to assert himself, “If there is going to be any business transacted here, it will be from this end of the room.” He was immedi- ately informed that all business would be transacted from the other end. Making several unsuccessful attempts to interrupt the women again the surprised minister finally threw up his hands and in a tone of disgust sat down, saying to his guest Senator Merriwaite who was borrowed from the Salvation Army for the occasion, “Oh, what's the use.” A Mrs. Sprague imtroduced to the women their speaker, Senator, Alice Patterson Merritt. Mrs. Merritt taking her cue from the preliminary program, addressed the women and ignored the men, assuming, she said “our absent husbands are here in spirit.” She spoke on the responsibility of the parent fn the home. Telling the woman that the Rotary motto 18 “He profits most who serves best” she suggested to the women a new one “She weighs most who eats best.” “We are living in an age of thirgs material, mechanical and spiritual™ Senator Merritt satd. ‘Everyone 18 governed by the standards of things spiritual and material.

Rossant, French en- gineer who is visiting American plants in the interests of Parisian in- dustries, called at the Stanley Works, Landers, Frary & Clark’s and at the ofiice of_ City Engineer Philip A. Marian today. Mr. Rossant spoke interestingly of his impressions of American cities with their huge buildings and manu- facturing plants, but expressed a be- lief that the country has progressed commercially but not artistically. He prefers American politics to those of his native country, contrast- ing the smooth operation of elections with but two major parties and of the government once have been chosen, with that of France where there are dozens of parties and where he has seen cabi- nets change as often as twice a day. The Frenchpeople are greatly in- terested in the presidential election and are following the campaign closely, he reports. In his opinion France regards the republican party with greater favor than it does the democrats, feeling that the G. O. P. has a more liberal policy and better understanding of international af- fairs. Mrs. Warner Substitutes For Governor Smith El Reno, Okla., Sept. 20 (P— Serving as a substitute for her father.
