on his appetite. Judge Traceski told him he would probably be able to eat with greater relish if he let that stuff" alone entirely.
 Before disposins of the case. Judge Traceski impressed upon Mikulak that he and his family would be better off in the long run if the money used to purchase the ingredients and accessories necessary in the manufacture of liquor. was spent for foodstuffs and similar necessities in the home. He also pointed out that If he did not have liquor in his home he could not be suspected of selling 1t and it would be the part of wisdom for him to avoid all the appearances of violat- ing the law on the premises.
 Father andsS0n Fight
 William Sokolski. b9. and his son, William, 2+. of 3S Silver street, were charged with drunkenness, breach of the peace and assaulting each other. to which they pleaded not guilty. The father was fined 35 and costs and placed on probation, while Judgment was suspended on the son but he was ordered to make imme- diate payment of a. fine and costs imposed some months ago. He had been on probation to make payment but Judge Traceski ordered proba- tion revoked.
 Officer Charles Weare testified that he and Supernumerary Officer Henry Zajkowski heard a racket about 12:30 this morning and found the elder sokolski out in the street near his home. shouting at the top of his lungs and demanding that everyone be arrested. In the house they found the young man in an in- toxicated condition and covered with blood, as was his father. Indi- cations were that father and son had been fighting and the entire neighborhood was aroused by the racket. / Mrs. Sokolski testified that she worked until 5 o'clock yesterday aft ernoon and when she got home she found her husband intoxicated. He called her vile names and chased her from the house. About midnight there was more trouble, she said. The. husband called his wife liar before he left the pen to testify and after he took the oath. Judge Ira ceski advised him to tell the truth about the entire affair Immediately he denied being intoxicated. He and his son and two others had . pint of liquor between them after they finished hauling wood from the Caldwell property on South High street near the post ofiice, and hia wife accused him of being intoxicat- ed. which he contended was impos- sible in view of the small amount of liquor distributed among the quartet.
 He was in bed late at night. he said. when his c1 year old son came in and started choking him. It waa this son who should have been ar rested but four policemen came in and took the other son.
 William Jr. admitted that although he has been an probation for si, months he has not wiped out a fine | and costs. He denied that he wal intoxicated and the only part he
New Britain herald., 1929-06-27

had in the fight was to try and pro- tect his father from the other young men.
 Asked how it happened that his face was covered with blood. he re- piled that Officer William O'Day took . sucker shot' at him when he gave the cops an argument" He had not done anything to justify his arrest and he did not want to sub- nit. he admitted.
 Florence Sokolski testified that her father was intoxicated and her brother William showed signs of having been drinking when she ar- rived at home shortly after 10 o'clock. Someone was discharstng fireworks on the street and her father complained about it. A rumpus started and her father threatened to chase her mother from the house.
 Refused to Move For Policeman
 Michael sinko. 20. of 3ss South Main street and Andrew Melnyk, IS, of 75 East Main street, pleaded guilty to the charge of breach of the peace and were ordered to pay the costs of the court. amounting to $40 each. judgment being suspend ed on finding of guilty.
 Officer Otis Hopkins testified that the young men were sitting in front of . store at the corner of Elm street and Franklin street shortly after 12 o'clock last night, eating cherries and throwing the stones on the side walk. Ordered to move. they ques- tioned the authority of the police and when asked where they lived they replied ''in house." They also told the officer the police were ''yel. low" as indicated by being shot in the back.
 Sinko admitted that they should have moved when ordered to do SO Melnyk likewise admitted that they took the wrong attitude. He said he was sorry he was so stubborn and he was ready to apologize to the of. flcer. He asured the court it would be his last appearance.
 Judge Traceski told the young men the officer was entirely right ir ordering them to move and the, were absolutely wrong when the, did not do so. They should have had sufficient civic pride not te throw cherry stones on the sidewalk for someone else to pick up. How. ever. he was pleased to observe thai they had changed their attitude owe, night and he hoped their experience would serve as a lesson to them ir the future.
