 Rousseon Pleads Guilty
 Victor Rousseon aged 27 years of 422 Main street pleaded guilty to the charge of operating an auto mobile while under the influence of liquor and was fined s100 and costs and sentenced to 30 days in jail. Judge Hungerford, after hearing the plea of Attorney Lawrence J. Colon for leniency in view of the delicate condition of Rousseons wife and her lack of funds, said he would confer with the probation officer later.
 Traffic Officer John c. Steadler testified that Rousseon was driving on Park street about 5:45 o'clock yesterday afternoon, in a zig-zae manner, cutting in and out of traf- fc. The officer signalled him to stop but he continued into Main street, passing the stop signal at the National Bank corner and stopping only when freight train blocked the Main street crossing. Officer Stadler pursued him in another car and arrested him.
 Rousseon was abusive and said no New Britain policeman could ar rest him, the officer testified. There were two young men in an intoxi. cated condition in the car with him
 Attorney Colon told Judge Hun. gerford that Rousseon was asked for a ride by two young men and they gave him something which made him intoxicated. The only mitigating circumstances are that Ronssen's wife is in a delicate con- dition and has no funds.
