TAKE TESTINONY IN 52 ROBBERY Prosscutor Starts Proceedings Against Gacek and Bazylewicz ‘The trial of Michael Gacek, aged 31, of 23 Farmington avenue, and Edward Bagylewicz, 22, of 151 Ly- Ons street, on the charge of theft of $52 from Dominick Toczko of 563 Burritt street, was staited in police court today us ordered yesterday by Judge M. D. Saxe, but on account of the engagcments of the attorneys In the cases, in superior court at Hartford, it was necessary to ad- Jjourn until tomorrow, when it is ex- pected the trial will be concluded. Officer Louis E. Harper testified that he went to a store at 235 FFarmington avenue about 12:15 m. on. S8eptember 23 and received a complaint from Toczko that he had been robbed. Subsequently, a house at 31 Richmond avenue was raided and the occupants arrested for keeping and frequenting a disor- derly house. It was learned that Toczko, who was among the fre- quenters, was leaving the house to make a purchase of liquor for one of the others, when he was set upon and robbed. He told the officer that Gacek jumped on him &nd held him, while Bazylewicz took the money. On requesy of Prosecuting Attorney Woods, the officer demonstrated the manner in which the robbery was committed, the prosecuting attorney taking the part of Toczko and the officer play- ing the role of the alleged robbers. A bunch of ekeys which Toczko claimed was taken with the money, was found on Bazylewicz by Officer Harper. The officer noticed that Bazylewicz favored one side while being searched, and on reaching in near belt, the officer found the kews. The officer demonstrated to the court that one of the keys fits the lock on Toczko's house door, another tits his automobile, another fits the door of a garage at 494 Burritt street where Toczko keeps. his car, and another fits the lock on a ga- rage in the rear of his home. Identifics Assailants Toczke, according to the officer, fdentified Gacek and Bazylewicz as his assailants. At thé time of the arrests, none of the principals were intoxicated, the officer said under gross examination. Bazylewicz was taken out of bed at 3:15 a. m, and dressed in the presence of the po- lice, who noticed nothing unusual about his appearance or demeanor, but at the police station he seemed 1o be feigning drunkenness, Officer Harper testified. Attorney B. J. Monkiewicz, who, with Attorney Martin F. 8tempien, tepresents Bazylewicz, wanted to know the source of Officer Harper's Information implicating Bazylewicz and the officer gave it. Then the at- torney insisted on learning the source of the information implicat- ing Gacek and the officer started to give it when Attorney Thomas F. McDonough, representing Gacek, ob- Jjected. “Well, he's only answering & question,” Judge Roche said, and Attorney Monkiewicz at once with- drew the yuestion. Sergeant P. A. McAvay was the next witness for the state, and told of seeing Officer Harper take the keys out of Bazylewicz's trousers. |At this point adjournment was tak- en. speeder Fined $10 Gunard Johnson, aged 24, of 355 South Main street, pleaded guilty to the charge of speeding and was fined $10 and costs on recommenga- tion of Prosecuting Attorney J.
