The Waterbury Democrat., 1942-09-09

NO0AASeSASSNs ard himself may have been the driver.
 MT. Larkin called attention to the fact that a witness had been found who testified seeing Thomas driv- ing the car when the three men left for work on the morning of the accident. In view of that de- velopment and absence of any tangible proof the motor vehicle charge could not be prosecuted, the attorney stated. He pointed out, however, that more serious charges of automobile homicide could be entered against the accused if fur- ther evidence permits.
 The case was one of 18 called in common pleas court today at the opening of the fall term. Seven nolles were entered upon recom- mendations from the prosecuting attorney, one bond was called, and the remainder of the cases were either assigned for hearings to- morrow or continued.
 A $200 property bond posted by Walter J. Mitchell was called when the accused failed to make an ap- pearance to answer to charges of breach of peace.
 Anthony Novakauskas, 21, of Wa terbury was granted a nolle upon payment of a $10 fine when ar- raigned on a charge of rules of the road violation. The charge original ly had been entered as reckless driv. ing but was changed on the recon. mendation of the Prosecuting Attor- ney. The accused was driver of car which struck 8 man at Highland avenue and SoutL. Leonard streets last Feb. 2.
