THOMAS MCGUIRE
DRAWS $500 FINE
Prospect Man Appeals
Drunken Driving PEN
atty; $500 Bonds Set

Thomas Mcclure As, of Terry
road, Prospect, was fined 500 and
costs in municipal court today when
arraigned before Judge John L..
Gaffney on charge of operating an
automobile under the influence Of
liquor. The accused appealed the
sentence through his attorney, John
F. Tobin, and bonds Of 5000 were
fixed by the court.
Mcclure was involved in an acct
dent Dec. 20 on South Main and
East Liberty streets after his car
collided with one operated by Ed
mund j. Landinskas, 26, of 229 Al
der street.
Jan. 8 his case was partly heard
before the same judge who ordered
principals in the case to proceed
with the testimony of the witnesses
who were available. He then con-
tinued the case until today to hear
the remainder of the testimony.
Attorney TObin said Mcclure had
the green light in his favor, but
that 1t changed so abruptly he was
unable to stop and the ensuing crash
with Landinskas occurred. This
phase of the contributory cause was
emphasized and the attorney told
the court If additional information
was wanted he would obtain police
electrician to testify the mechan-
isms work suddenly.
Judge Gaffney informed Atty.
Tobin it would not be necessary as
no reasonable doubt existed in his
mind that the accused was guilty
and imposed the sentence.
Mcclure was arrested by Motor
Patrolman Matthew Guarini, who
at the first trial testified he helped
MCGUIRE into the police station from
his car when he drove the accused
to the station.
Attorney Tobin recalled this por-
ton of the officers testimony today,
citing that the assistance Officer
Guarini gave, was customary, re-
gardless of the charge against the
man being brought to police head
quarters.
Mrs. MCGUIRE testified she came
into town from Prospect to meet
her husband where the accident &C.
Cured. She denied her husband was
under the influence although Nc
CURE said he had two highballs be-
fore he came to town.

Glorting Yourself
Ry Alicia HaEs

You don't have to be like Holly woods current favorite scream = the dear old lady who insisted on having her purchases wrapped be- cause she wanted the paper to save for Uncle Sam = to take an inter- est in beauty economy. You can save the stuff as sensibly as does beautiful and busy Lucille Ball.
 Though she was a pre-war tex perimenter," always looking for something new, Lucille reports that she sat down and wrote out what she really NEEDS, and she Luys that only, and only as much of that as she's going to use in current season.
 Of course, as every budgeter knows, there's economy in buying larger size packages, usually. So you might, for the present, choose those. However, you'll find your self using more than Is necessary when you take from 8 great jar. and therefore you would be wise to transfer some of 1t to small container. That's much handler, too. And by the way, keep the jars in time you may want them to bring home your refills.
 Another talked-up habit of the pre-war glamor era "slathering 1t on" has been abandoned by Lucille Ball. She knows, and so do you when you put your mind to your beauty routines, that it's not the amount of cream you use that counts; it's the message you do as you spread it. Making 1t go fur ther, hence, actually makes 1t more effective.
 Lucille also suggests these:
 Repair clipped nail polish in- stead of re-doing 8 whole hand lavishly every time you notice a flaw. When polish thickens thin 1t with prepared solution. Screw cap tightly and don't spill on bot tleneck - this prevents sticking. unopenable caps.
 Use lipstick down to the bottom

ADVOCATING THE USE OF NOR. PHINE, COCAINE AND ALCO-
 HOL IN MEDICINE

The other day correspondent cited a book on the subject of alco- hol by one Dr. Archdall Reid, editor of London Lancet. The book. said the correspondent, advocates ration al use of liquor. The author, said the correspondent, is a great auth ority.
 My book dealer was unable to find such a book. But then, any views on the use of liquor which might be expressed in such book would have no more and no less weight than the views of any othA. physician, in my judgment. I never have had much reverence for medical auth orities". Before I can defer to a particular physicians or laboratory workers ideas want to know some thing about the mans background, experience, yes, and his character. And want to know by what course of reasoning he has arrived at his conclusion. So I shall probably pur- sue the hunt for Reid's book no further.
 Come to think of 1t, I believe in, advocate and practice the rational use of morphine, cocaine, castor oil, strychnine and alcohol in medicine.
 But I imagine that was not the rational use" of liquor the corres- pondent says the book advocates, for on the same postcard the cor respondent challenged me to name a non-drinking race that ever amounted to a tinker's dann." Evi- dently the correspondent meant the use of alcoholic beverage or liquor to intoxicate. or shall we say to help l the drinker forget cares, responsi- bilities, worries for a while?
 If that isn't just the right term for 1t, then why does the drinker drink? I'd welcome all answers to this which our readers may be dis ] posed to give. I don't mind anony-
