D. Saxe said in police court today he found G. Everett Herre, aged 22, of 37 Wake- fleld court, guilty on the charge of speeding and fined him $10 and costs, after Herre had accused Mo- torcycle Officer David Doty of harassing him. A few weeks ago in | the police station Herre said, Officer Doty told hign he would like to be the officer who arrested him, the in- cident being in connection with Herre's arrest by Motorcycle Officer Harper on West Main street the afterndon of the monument dedica- tion exercises, and when he drove past the officer at the traffic post at Bassett street and Rockwell avenue, the officer shouted to him: *Hello, speed king,” and also chided him “for playing the high school girls,” Herre said. Officer Doty denied that he had made the remarks. He testified that | he was on Broad street about 1 p. m. Saturday, October 6, and saw Herre's car stopped for the red light at Washington street. Keeping about 20 feet behind Herre, the officer saw him pass High street at the rate of 32 miles an hour, Grove street at 34, and Silver street at 36, without sounding a horn. Near Booth street the officer clocked him on the speed- ometer and arrested him. Herre, ac- cording to the officer, replied 25 or 30" when asked as to his speed. Attorney Willlam E. earty, | representing Herre, asked Officer Doty his reason for not making the arrest as foon as he saw him speed- ing. and the officer answered that he preferred to wait and observe how far Herre intended to go and at what speed. “Well. it is dangerous, isn't it. to drive throngh Broad street at the rate of 32 miles an | hour?" the attorney asked. “T| should say it is."" the officer replied. “Well. T should think you would have made the arrest at once.” the | attorney continued. “Well, T didn't.” Officer Doty replied. Miss Ethel Stromaquist of 9 Strat. ford road and Douglas Norton. who were with Herre, testified for the Jde- fense. Miss Stromquist said she did not look at the speedometer hut she observed that Herre reduced his| speed at all intersections and! “tooted"” his horn. while Norton satd he glanced over his shoulder and raw the motoreyicle officer. Tn- stinctively. he glanced at the speed- ometer and noticed that it was rec- ording a speed of 22 miles an hour. He recalled that when the officer pulled alongside the car and asked Herre about his speed. Herre did not reply at once but then said he be- Yeved he had been going ahout 25 miles an hour. . . Assistant Prosecuting Attorney Greenstein remarked that it was a | deplorable state of affairs when a | man gets the idea that the police are going to extremes to arrest him, and Judge & said he believed |auainted with Hall. ihe truck driver for speeding when the truck ,was in front of Herre's car, according to the testimony. Too Many Avoidable Accidents “There are entirely too many ac- cidents caused by reckless driving, which are avoidable,” Judge Saxe remarked as he fined John Dorbuck, aged 32, of 328 Oak street, $35 and costs on the charge of reckless driving. Motorcycle Officer Louis Harper made the arrest on October 12, following a collision between Dorbuck’s car and one owned by Alphonse laFlamme of 157 Wilcox street, on Elm street. Dorbuck claimed that the driving wheel sud- denly locked and he lost control of the car, causing him to go to the side of the road, where the other car was parked. Judge Saxe said he felt from the testymony that Dor- buck was not in the exercise of | proper care or he would have been | able to bring his car to a stop soon- er than he hdd done. On request of Attorney Thomas F. McDonough, Judge Saxe set bonds for an appeal at_$100. Hall Discharged Herbert N. Hall aged 27, of 96 West Main street, who was in police | court yesterday on a technical charge of breach of the peace, was | discharged by Judge Saxe ‘today. Sergeant P. J. O'Mata testified that Hall's statements were found true.| He works for R. J. Dixon, a local| contractor, and was at a christen- | ing on Eilver street prior to his ar- rest. Mr. Dixon told the court he has, found Hall industrious and honest | since entering his employ six | months ago.

Johnson late funday night at Black Rock bridge on complaint of Walter Paskowski of 534 West Main street. Hall denied yesterday that he had been near Paskowski and had no intention of holding him up. Judge Saxe remarked that he was pleased at having continued the case, in view | of the results of the investigation. Slaps Sister in Face Antonio Giantonio, aged 38, of 111 | Orange street, pleaded guilty to the | charge of breach of the peace and | assaulting his sister, Mrs. Marie | Zicandi of 467 Myrtle street. He a cused her of Insulting his wife and | said he finally slapped her in the | face. Judge Saxe suspended judg- | ment and warned Giantonio not to ! take the law into his own hands. | Fight Follows Christening | John Krouse, aged 26, of 136 Booth street, and Stanley Kulas, | aged 29. of 40 Gold street, were | charged with breach of the peace | and assanlting each other. Attor- ney A. £ Aharonian represented Krouse and Attorney P. F. McDon- ough represented Kulas. The arrests | were made about 3 a. m. yesterday by Officers Lee and Zocco. Mary Robrowski of 97 Rroad | street testified that the cause of thn fight wae a flashlight. It followed a christening party at | Krouse's home and teok place at | Kulas' home, where the policemen found a considerable amount of Dblood on the floor. Kulas was trea Picking it’ up, Krouse was about to leave when Kulas rushed out of arother room and seized it. In the meantime, Krouse's wife came in and Kulas struck her on the hand with the flashlight. She's my wife and I'm supposed to fight for her when someone attacks her,” he de- clared. “We had a rovgh and tumble fight for about five minutes and 1 hit him with my fist and pushed him against the sink.” Cross-examined by Attorney Mc- Donough, Krouse admitted that he drank home brew at the christen- ing but he was not intoxicated. He felt that he had the right to go after the flashhight of his brother- intlaw. He admitted that wine was served to the guests but he stuck to home brew. Attorney McDonough wanted to know the quality of the home brew. Krouse told him he did not know how many drinks he took from 1 p. m., until midnight but the home brew had no effect on him. “Well, did it have any kick it?” Attorney McDonough asked. isten,” Krouse replied. “T've got some up to the house and I'll give you some if you want it.” “Oh, you're distributing it that freely, are you?” the attorney rec torted. Mrs. Kulas testified that Krouse and another man named John God- zik of Farmington avenue attacked her husband. A tea pot and dishes were smashed in the melee, she said. Krouse was under the influ- ence of liquor and so was her hus. band. Kulas testified that Krouse gave him the flashlight at the christening and then came to his home and attacked him, striking him on the torehead with the tea pot while Godzik held him by the throat, after to | Kulas told Krouse to leave because of the lateness of the hour. Five stitches were taken t» close the cut in his forehead. e Kulas denied that he struck K-ouse first. He also denied that he struck Mrs. Krouse, although Dr. Moses Kupelian testified that he at- tended her for bruises and swelling on the hand. Judge Saxe found that Krouse was the aggressor and he fined him $20, discharging Kulas. Passes Light, Fined $5 Mike Sablosky, aged 40, of New- ington, was fined $5 without costs on the charge of passing a traffic signal. Motorcycle Officer W. 8. Strolls testified that Bablosky was driving east on East Main street about 11:50 yesterday forenoon and made a right turn into Elm street while the red 'ight was show- ing. Sablosky admitted that he had made the turn but felt justified in so doing because he has seen many others pass lights. It is a common occurrence in Hartford. New Britain and other places, according to his observations. Judge Saxe told Bablosky never to do as other motorists da unless he is certain it is right to do so.
