 Against Campanaro
Less Serious Allegation Made-Accused Given Sus=
 pended Jail Sentence of Four Months

A charge of arson against Ralph Campanaro, AT, was dropped in the Superior Court yesterday afternoon after Il jurors had been selected to try him at the criminal term of the court, and lesser charge of drop ping a burning substance close to combustible material was substi- tuted. Campanaro pleaded nolo contendre to the latter count and was given four month suspended jail term by Judge Alfred c. Baldwin. Judge Baldwin, at the request of Atty. Edward J. Mascolo, counsel for Companaro, recommended that the federal authorities take no &C., tion toward the deportation of Campanaro because of the offense.
 The arson charge placed against Campanaro was the result of an in- vestigation into fire in the Boston restaurant, conducted by the ac- cused at 380 So. Main street last July 18th.
 In changing the charge against Campanaro States Atty. William B. Fitzgerald told the court that the state did not have conclusive evil dence on the arson charge and that the accused was entitled to the ben eft of the lesser charge.
 The fire in question started in two waste paper baskets in which it was the custom of the accused to throw swept-up debris. The debris included cigar and cigarette butts.

 Joseph N. DePaola, of Meriden, was elected president of the state Young Democrats at last nights meeting, which was attended by several Waterbury members. MT. DePaola, state barber commissioner, succeeds Robert Benton, of South Norwalk, who resigned for business reasons.

They will be guests at a luncheon to be given Oct. 26 by the Connecticut Federation of Demo- cratic Women's Clubs, and will al- so appear at major Democratic rally being arranged by the local town committee, which probably will be held the evening of Oct. 26.
 Speakers at the Young Democratic rally will include not only members of the state ticket and officers of the sponsoring group but also May or Vincent A. Scully and local can- didates for senator and representa- tive.

only insured for $1 ,O0O and that the policy was taken out only after an insurance agent had paid twelve visits to Campanaro trying to have him takke out insurance.
 Campanaro was arrested several years ago and it was for this reason that Atty. Mascolo asked that Judge Baldwin request that no deportation proceedings be taken against him by the federal government.
 The change of plea in the Camp anaro case was the second entered in the Superior Court yesterday. John Calvin, 38, as reported yester- day, earlier in the day pleading nolo contendre to charge of gross neg ligence in the operation of an au- tomobile. The original charge against him was automobile homicide.
 Calvin was the driver of the au- tomobile in which James Leary. brother of former City Controller Daniel J. Leary, was killed in an automobile crash On the Thomaston road in Waterville on last Feb. 5.
 Hostile Witness
 Asst States Atty. Walter D. Smyth, who prosecuted the case said that there was evidence in the case that the accused had been drinking but that Miss Beatrice Truelove, who was riding in the death car was hostile witness inso- far as the state was concerned He also said that Calvin had no pre- viouS record.
 Calvin, as reported yesterday, was fined $500 without costs and given suspended term of year in jail.
