RITAIN HERALD [~ NEW BRITAIN, CONNECTICUT, WEDNESDAY, APRIL 16, 1930. Fines Imposed On Amount to $105; Is Lectured for Dash In West End Speeders Hauled in By Mounted Policemen One Man Had No Li-| cense Because He Was Without Funds—Motor- ist Pays $50 for Evasion. Motorcycle and automobile drivers were assessed fines totalling $105 in police court today, the costs being added in the maj y of cascs. Jo- seph W.. Duska, 24, of Southington, was fined $25 and costs for reckless driving and Judge M. D. Saxe told him that a driver who ‘would handle a cdr in the manner described by Motorcycle Officer David Doty “must be cut of his head.” Prosecutinz Attorney J. G. Woods said it was one of the worst cases of reckless driving ever to come into police court and when Duska inquired whether his operator's license would ' Ve suspended as a result of his con- viction, Mr. Woods replied: “Yes, it will.” Duska was driving east on W Main street about 11:20 o'clock ves- terdey. forenoon and almost struck George LeWitt's car while passing i truck, Officer Doty testified. His speed was “terrific,” the officer said, and by the time the latter turncd his motorcyele around and took up the chase, Duska had covered the distance between Bradley street and | Black Rock bridge, the officer sight- ing him at Lincoln street as the mo- | toreyele, going 50 miles an hour, reached the bridge. Duska_kept ahead of the officer down West Main street, although at times the motorcycle was pushed beyond the rate of 50 miles an hour. Duska slowed down to turn into Cedar street, going east on Lake street and north on Washington street, the officer overtaking him af Myrtle and Washington streets. Ask ed why he was going:so fast, Duska. | according to the officer, said he was in a hurry to mcet his brother at Trinity college, Hartford. Duska Nettles Court Officials Duska, who exasperated the court officials by his apparent slow-wit- tedness, began talking to Judge Saxe in such a low tone that nobody clse could hear him, until Prosecu- tink Attorney Woods ordered him to speak louder. “We don't want a whispering campaign,” Mr. Woods told him. Duska had no defense except that he did not believe he had driven at the rate of 50 miles an hour, and the road was smooth so he thought it proper and safe to go fast. He admitted that he was probably go- ing “40 miles an hour or a little more,” and he questioned Officer Doty’s ability to estimate®his speed Decause, he said, the officer passed him in the opposite direction. Tt developed, however, that it was Of- ficer Tanguay who was going in a westerly direction while Officer Doty was pursuing Duska. Judge Saxe said there was no ex- cuse for such driving and numerous accidents are constantly resulting from it. Duska seemed not to com- prehend that it was dangerous and Judge Saxe advised him to look up the motor vehicle regulations, which require drivers to exercise care and | caution and look out for the safety | of themsclves and others on the highways. Duska was unable to produce his registration and said it must have blown out of the car. “It's a wom- der you did not blow out, too, the way you were driving,” Prosecuting Attorney Woods shot back at him. Judge Saxe suspended judgment on the charge of failure to have the | certificats of registration in his pos- | session | No Money.

A fine of $10 and costs was imposed on the first charge, and judgment was suspended on the others. Officer Thomas Blanchette testi- fied that Cincapero cntered West Main strect from Burritt street at.a fast rate of speed about 6:45 o'clock last-night, ignoring the boulevard sign. Cinapero said he had not been in New Britain since the first of the year and did not sce the sign. He produced the certificate of regis- tration and explained that there was a christening being held and he took the chance of driving, even though he knew he was liable to arrest for ot having a license. Judge Saxe, upon hearing that he have the money for a license, remarked that it was the Dbest reason he had ever heard for not having a car. Peddler Uses Pleasure Car Plates A fine of $3 without costs was im- sed in the case of Israel Chinit of 1539 Stanley street, who | pleaded not guilly to the charge of | driving a car with improper markers. He was arrested on Stan ley strect last night by Officer L. I Harper, who saw pleasure car mark P rear seat had been removed and the space filled with dry goods which Chintz was peddling. TFor such use, the motor vehicle laws require com- bination markers which cost more than pleasure car markers, the of- ficer said. Chinitz admitted that the officer’s story was correct, but he claimed not to have known he was violating the law. The agent who handled his insurance assured him that he could carry dry goods in the car with ordinary markers, he said. Ignores Boulevard Sign Joseph Winnik, 25, of 340 Chest- | pleaded guilty to the charge of disobeying a ‘stop” sign at Black Broad avenue and West Main street and was fined $5 with- out costs. Officer Thomas Blanch- otte testificd that a collision was narrowly averted when Winnik drove into West Main street without stopping for the boulevard sign | about 7:30 o’clock last night. Speeds On Motorcycle rett Heath, 21, of 648 West reet, drove a motorcycle c on East Main street at 7:20 o’clock last night and passed Center and Summer streets at the rate of 42 miles an hour, according to Officer L. E. Harper, who arrested him for speeding. Heath pleaded not guilty and said he did not realize he was driving too fast. A fine of $10 and costs was imposed. Evader Fined $50 Pleading guilty to the charge of evading responsibility after an ac- | cident, Carl Kowaleski, 24, of 0| Governor strect was fined $50 and | costs on recommendation of Prose- cuting Attorney . Woods. Officer James Kelly arrested him on com- plaint.of Willlam Howarth of 15 Overlook avenue whose car was badly damaged by one driven by Kowaleski Saturday night on Farm- ington avenue, bits of maroon col- ored paint off Kowalski's car having furnished the clue by which the of- ficer traced the offending drive Attorney B. J. Monkicwicz, repre- senting Kowaleski, said the damage to Howarth's car would be paid for and to do so Kowaleski would be cbliged to dispose of his car, as he was in poor finarcial circumstances. The charge of violation of the rules of the road was nolled in the case of Motorman Charles H. Bron- e, 45, of 220 Center street, South Manchester, who was arrested by Officer John M.

The surest way to live to be a centenarian in Arkkosh's opin- ion, is to do just the opposite of what prbhibitionists and other reform organization suggest. Yesterday he celebrated his 112th birthday and when asked to what he attributed his longev- ity jotted down the following: Hard liquor, strong tobacco, and a man-sized meal, consisting of two good-sized steaks, smoth- ered with onions, plenty of po- tatoes, a head of lettuce, several oranges and threc or four pints of coffee.
