Musical Program of Catholic
Church Observation-Disclosures.

After one of the most hectic trials
in many months, Frank Carter of
ForestVille was acquitted last night
on Il charge of reckless driving. Not
only was the trial n lengthy one but
personalities flew fast in the cross
examination by Attorney Charles +.
Conlon, who represented Carter.
Carter had been arrested Saturday
night by Motorcycle Officer Fred
Callen following alleged speeding
and general rccklcssness along tho
New Britain road and East Main
street, being stopped by the consta-
BILE on West Main street after a long
chase. a different aspect was placed
on the matter when it was aired in
court. The testimony showed that
Carter had stopped twice behind
standing trollcys land seemed to
point to moderate rate of speed.
When stopped by the officer, he said,
he was ordered to submit to a search
for liquor and refused liquor and re-
fused. Callen is then said to have
made Mr.. and Mrs. Carter wait for
an hour while he procured a search
warrant, armed with which he went
through the automobile and found
nothing. He then arrested the au-
toist on the reckless driving charge.
Carter said that once before he
had been stopped and search by
Callen in Forestville. When tho Of
ficer was placed on the stand, he was
| given n very uncomfortable 90 min
utes OF Quizzing by Attorney Conlon.
Justice Merritt Q. Ryder found Car
ter not guilty and dismissed the case.

mary steps to put building opera
tions here On a more modern basis.
