A perfect defense to the charge of operating motor vehicle while under the influence of liquor was shattered in city court this morn- ing when Judge John r. McGrath refused to believe four youths in- volyed In an automobile crash and Impescd a fine of $100 and costs on the alleged driver, Eric Ulrich. 23. of 3G Putnam street. In addition to the fine the accused was sentenced to jail for thirty days. The execu- ton of the sentence was not sus- pended as the court remarked that the charge involving the painful injury of 75-year old woman and serious damage to another car was too serious an offense to consider lightly. Ulrich denied that he was the operator. John J. Green Of Orange street admitted that he was the driver and while not wishing to take any rap" for anyone in- sisted that he wanted the truth known. TWO other companions of Ulrich passengers in the car at the time of the crash, declared that Green and not the accused was the driver.
 An appeal to the court of com mon pleas was taken from Judge McGraths decision and the neces- sary bonds were posted for the ap- pearancc of Ulrich in the next sea- sion of the higher court.
 The accident occurred on Sunday evening, May 22nd on the Mer- iden road. A car, driven by Leo Reiger of Plantsvllle wat proceed ing toward the SOuthington Noun tain when he was sideswiped by q passing machine. Mrs Ellen Seaver, n passenger in the car was pa inful- ly hurt and was taken to St Mary'B hospital.
 When Reiger walked 10 the car involved in the crash with his, Ul- rich was seated behind tho wheel and was eager to show his opera tors license and to assume reBpon- sibility for the collision. When patrolmcn Joseph Mccarthy and John sulleton arrived Green had assumed the role of driver. Ulrich had disappeared but was later found and arrested or three charH- es, operating car finder the in- fiuence of liquor, reckless driving and evasion of responsibility.
 To-day in court Green testified that owing to minor mishap on the Meriden road near Four Naples he had taken charge of the car and was driving when the crash Oc- cured. As he was not q licensed op- orator he and Ulrich switched seats which explained the reason why Relger was so positive that Uirlc was the driver.
 The police officers testified that not only Green. but two otheri were willing to take the rap" to snVe Ulrich. In addition to Reiger and his wife, Arthur Roberts, Ray mond Bsrgih and Eugene Herman of the Mcriden road testified that they were on the scene il few min.
