Sake, when convicted of second offense Of driving an automobile while ln- toxicated. Williams was convicted of this offense at least once before and served a term in jail He was sen- fenced to six months this morning, but because of his age and the fact that his health is not so good, Judge Sake suspended execution of five months on recommendation of As- sistant Prosecuting Attorney William M. Greenstein.
 Steve kaminski. who went out Saturday night for the first time after being ill for a week, got into an argument with some friends and landed in hospital after he had sent two friends to their physicians, was dismissed with judgment sus- pended. Steve said he became ex- cited in an argument over a card game. A fight ensued in which he gave Walter Mycoski black eye and is alleged to have inflicted injuries of similar nature on another friend.
 To show his temper, or so he in formed the court, he showed his hand through a plate glass window. Pa trolman Gustave Hellberg took him to the New Britain General hospita l with a badly gashed left wrist. He remained in the hospital from Sat urday night until Monday morning. Judge Saxe said he had been pun ished enough.
 Some sympathy was manifest for Joseph Murphy, 2s, of Pittsburg, Pa. who was charged with driving while under the influence of liquor and without an operators license. Murphy has a Pennsylvania license. He admitted that he had been drink ing. It was shown that he was a passenger Tn car owner by friend. The friend had gone into a restau- rant and Murphy thought it would be good joke to move the car far ther up the street. He drove it less than 200 feet but was arrested by Patrolmen Thomas Tierney and Joseph Gigliotti as he got off the car. Murphy is a travelling salesman. The court was convinced that he was a young man of good reputation. He has wife and two months old baby in Pittsburg. Judge Saxe im- posed the minimum penalty of $100 fine and a suspended sentence of five days in jail, and remitted $50 of the fine. The charge of driving without Connecticut license was suspended.
