 In the Berlin Court.
 Illegal hunting cases occupied the greater part of the time in the Ber- lin town court yesterday morning. Four cases were heard, all the men being arrested yesterday morning, the beginning of the open season for snipe. Those brought to court were Carl Carubba of Newington. Steve Carnova and Fred Bucholz of New Britain, and J. stanza of East Ber- lln' the charge being that they had taken snipe that were protected by law. All but Carnova were assessed the costs of court proceedings, but in Carnova's case Judge Griswold gave him the benefit of the doubt, when he said that he had applied for a hunting license and had re- ceived fishing license. He said he has, had a hunting license every year and was under the impression that he had one this season.
 Fish and Game Warden Ryan made the arrests, assisted by a dep- uty.
