 Action of some sort is necessary and probably ethere will be a. start in the right direction when George Pitzip1o of New York who drove Garrett w. Winant's on Sunday is to be given hearing before Justice Wakeman oni Thursday. He is out on bonds Of $500 now on the technical charge of reckless driving. q It is not altogeth- CT improbable that Daniel Williams, driver of the Bridgeport car will also be arrested on the same charge, Teck- less driving. The facts concerning the auto smash have become some what distorted. Those in the Will Hams car claim they were travelling about 25 miles an hour and that the Winant car was going at a greater speed and furthermore was crossing main avenue of traffic on a very seldom used automobile road. MT. Winant- makes the claim that his car was not proceeding more than twelve miles an hour. He does not concur with several witnesses, residents of Center street who claim that the car was proceeding so fast that it was inn possible for them to discern the figure Of the person at the wheel. It is 4o1lS CN10C4tC LhoI I10IS WS1S SO1tlS- thing out ofsthe ordinary when a spec tator will run into the roadway to as- certain how a machine would take the corner.
