The petition formulated at the monthly meeting of the Bridgeport Automobile Association requesting the police head to secure enforcement Of the present traffic regulations pertain ing to vehicles on the main streets is likely to have very safutary effect
 When called to the attention of the superintendent of police to-day 1t was said that the rule would be enforced to the letter. That individual patrol men should have been guilty of con doning it's violation, and thereby cast ing reflection upon the department seemed to greatly. incense the head of the force, to whom intimations have already come that the bicycle ordin- ance requiring lighted lamps and bells on all rubber tired vehicles was being ignored by the men.
 The manner in which he annOunc- ed for publication: ftI will see the or dinances are enforced to the letter. bodes i'll for. the next patrolman ob served to let a. vehicle pass by him in violation of the rules.
 The particular rule mentioned in the petition requires s1ow-n owing ve- hicles to keep to the right.

 LAW INTO HER OWN HANDS

Ethel Lucas, is dininutive in sta ture but she is plucky and like her husband Kid" Lucas, pugtlist. is not afraid to use her hands in defense. This little habit not only caused her to deliver the solar-plexus blow upon the gigantic frame of John Konczoe, 4O1 Hancock avenue, which caused a suit for $100 damages to be filed against her, but now threatens to in volve many others.
 According to allegations in the com plaint fled May ', Ethel Lucas of III Hancock avenue did come t0 the house of John and not only slapped his face but struck him as well. According to the statements of those involved ] ohm has not recently lived with his wife. Ethel is a friend of the wife and after listening to the woes of the larger woman decided to cTastise the husband. She went to the house and is alleged to have accused him of mis- conduct with another woman who now threatens a suit for islander.
