STATE WITNESS
OBL|GES JUDGE
AT First Declines to Look
at Man Who Had
SOcked Him

Prosecutor Michael ]. Galullo's
registered surprise when he asked
Fred Angelone, Of Wolcott, to iden-
tify his assailant in city court today
and got this reply:
II don't want to look at him"
AS spectators snickered, Judge
John L. Gaffney pressed Angelone to
take a look at the accused.
WELL" replied Angelone wrily, II
wouldn't look at him after he
punched me in the face, but for the
court will"
He thereupon turned and identi-
fled Joseph Bianco, 20, of 70 East
Clay street, as the youth who jumped
out of truck last Friday afternoon,
ran over to the grocery store on
Bank street, and punched him in the
face three times as he sat on barrel
outside the store. Angelo said he Is
employed at the grocery.
Bianco, who was arrested yester-
day on a warrant accusing him of
assault and breach of the peace,
was discharged by Judge Gaffney,
after he in turn had testified that
on the previous day he learned that
Angelone was "out to get me-" The
judge warned Bianco not to take
matters in his own hands, but to get
in touch with the prosecutors, who
are in Office for the purpose of pro-
lection"
Attorney Ralph Coppeto repre-
sented Bianco.
