Munger, in City Court this morning the case of Joseph Kerekes, Black Rock, charged with shooting a sea-gull at the break water on Oct. 5t1l, attracted consider able interest, when it was shown by Game Warden A.

Although the testimony of three witnesses was produced by the defense in an effort to break down the statements of Charles w Sturte- want, a special policeman at the Bridgeport Yacht club who witnessed the shooting, Prosecuttng Attorney Alexander Delaney riddled their ale gations with inconsistencies and a fine of $5 and costs was imposed. It is stated that the body of the bird has been requested and will be turned over in the interest of science to an air ship constructor named Stokes who re- sides on the Penf1eld estate at Black Rock. Game Warden Williams later stated Kerekes' hunting license had would be continued in the future against all guilty of shooting gu1ls.
