Alex Belonizi, aged 19, of Elan ders road, Southngton, who was tried last week in the local court. bound over to the superior court and granted suspended sentence to the Cheshire reformatory by Judge Allyn l.. Brown after plead ing guilty to five counts of forgery, was in police court again today charged with the same offense.
 Judge Traceski continued the case for disposition until tomorrow and Belonizi was ordered taken to Hartford for questioning by Assis- tant States Attorney Donald Calf ney.
 Released under the suspended re- formatory sentence last Friday. Be- lonizi is alleged by the police to have returned to this city and no later than the same night is said to have forged another check for s10 using the name of Joseph Ar bour as the maker and rendering it to Sebastian Biretta, a barber on Washington street. Biretta, who made the complaint 10 the police, alleged that Belonizi went to his shop and after having a haircut, shave, singe, shampoo and massage. offered the check in payment and received $S.10 ill change.
 Biretta also told the police that while Belonizi was in the chair in his shop he disclosed the informa- ton that he was contemplating marriage and was desirous of con- tracing for some soda that might be used at the wedding festivities. At this stage of the conversation, Biretta said, a friend who is in the soda business passed the shop and was called in. Belonizi then con- tracted for several cases of soda and ordered them delivered to Du- dack's hall on North street. When the soda maker went to make de- livery he found no one at the desig mated spot to accept the shipment.
 Biretta later met Belonizi on the street and questioned him about the check which had since been return ed marked mo funds" Belonizi told him that he would straighten the matter out right away and invited Biretta into a taxicab and had him driven to IS Pennington avenue. which he claimed as his residence. Going to a tenement on the seconi floor he returned shortly and told Biratta that there was no one at home at the time but that he had friends on Broad street who would make good the check. When this friend also proved to be away from home BeloniZi is alleged by Biretta to have reached into his pocket and handed him sg bill with the promise that he would return the remainder of the money as soon d. he had it. Biretta then went to po- lice headquarters where he made the complaint that resulted in the arrest.
 Police later learned that the ad- dress which Belonizi is alleged to have pointed out to Biretta as his residence is the home occupied by Captain George J. Kelly of the To- cal police department.
 Belonizi was taken to Hartford by Sergeant Michael Flynn immediately after court today and the previous suspension of sentence to the state rcformatory imposed by Judge Allyn l.. Brown last Friday was revoked and the youth ordered to that in- Btitution.
 Belonzi told Judge Brown that he had secured d job and had already repaid part of the money and re- Questcd that he be given another chance. This was refused by Judge Brown He told him that when he was released he would have learned a trade and would he better fitted 10 enter the world in competition with his fellow men.
