"You Can't Get Away With Crime" in Waterbury Says
 Judge.

Judge John l.. Gaffney today praised the efficiency of the mo- tor patrol in experiencing auto thieves, said that the city court is making a strong effort to stop such thefts, and warned youths that they can't get away with it."
 The cases tried were those of Albert Shattuck, IT, of l0l Con iston avenue, who was given a nolle: and Laurose Lafere, 16, of 34 West Liberty street, who was given a months continuance.
 Police do a grand job" the judge said after he reminded young Lafere of the speed with which Motor Patrolman James Wagner nabbed him and two com- panions in Waterville five minutes after the officer received radio flash about the stolen car.
 The judge then described how a joy-ride might end in tragedy for which there is no compensation.
 A motion by Attorney Hugo Guastaferri for a discharge on the ground that no evidence was in- trcduced to prove Lafere knew the car he was riding in was stol- en was denied.
