WENT TO A WEDDING

Wedding music and wedding wine
went to the head of Frank Greno, ESQ
Bronson street, on Saturday night, so
that early Sunday morning after all
the celebration, instead of waking
safely home in bed, he "came to" on a
cot in the city lookup, which is still
in the basement of the city hall. He
then found himself charged with driv-
ing an automobile while intoxicated.
The arrest was made Sunday at
1:45 a. M, by Detectives Frank Nc
Clusky and Perry Tusler of the police
department. Greno at that time was
driving Studebaker touring car east
on Salem avenue, lodging imaginary
poles as he careered down the street.
He told the police that he had been to
wedding at the Slovak hall on Mil
waukee avenue.
"I had three shots and two glasses
of beer" Greno told Captain Clausen
in the police office after his arrest,
"and then l went out in the country
to cool off, and try to get some fresh
air."
His country trip had done Greno no
good for he was caught on his return
to town.

on the drunken driving charge. Po-

skis car. Both cars were damaged
somewhat.
One Says Guilty.
Frank Greno pleaded guilty this
morning and pleaded for mercy at
the same time, asking the judge to
remember that he had four little
children.
"This is a most serious charge"
said Judge Slater, "and every one who
is convicted of driving while intoxi-
Gated must be punished. The state
legislature has increased the penalty,
and 1 have used the power the law
allows me to punish, yet it seems not
to have the the desired effect. A man
like you with four children to sup
port, and who does not know how to
handle himself and an automobile
anyway, should not have one. Sell
that car! You will pay a fine of $50
and costs or thirty days, with an adj
ditional sentence of twenty days at
hard labor. The sheriff will find you
job for that period and during that
time you will spend your nights and
Sundays in the county Jail. In addi-
tion you can not drive any motor
vehicle for period of one year"
