Paddock Case
AT Lakeside
End Abatement
Order Is Signed

An abatement order closing q
small building at the rear OF the
Lakeside Gardens. on the Stella
COON highway. for a period Of q
year was signed by Presiding
Judge Ernest NJ. Card late Monday
afternoon when the owner and
operators of the place failed to
appear in court.
Deputy Prosecutor Hugo Metz
Ter. jr.. cited five arrests and con-
victions for Illegal sale or posses
sion Of hard liquor during the lat
ter part of 1899 as grounds for the
abatement. Enjoined by Judge
Cards order were Rizien Buona-
guidi and Robert Stevens. as
operators of the place. and ID. A.
Lenzi as owner.
The order was the second one
involving the same persons. Less
than a year ago the larger build
ing on the property was abated
but the bar was re-estsblished in
a made-over garage.
The abatement order gives the
three defendants the alternative
Of staying closed year or posting
a bond OF $1,000. to be forfeited
in case of any further violations
Of the state liquor law.
