SUSSEX Court NeOs

George Samuel PettyiOhn, 40.
Ellenda4e. was found guilty of
speeding by a jury il Superior
Court last Thursday afternoon and
give fine Of $50 plus costs by
Judge James B. Carey.
The case came to tNe higher
court through an appeal from a
guilty verdict Of Judge Isaac d.
Short in Court Of Common Pleas.
The appeal was heard before a
jury at the October term of court
but a mistrial was declared when
the complaining witness, Trooper
William s. Walls Of the State Police
at Georgetown, told TIE .court that
Pettyjohn had told him at the time
Of the arrest that he thought it
looked funny Tor the same troop
er to arrest him at the same spot
near Glendale for driving exactly
the same speed 68 miles an hour
as had figured in a previous arrest
and conviction.
The mistrial was declared be-
cause under the law, mention Of a
prior conviction may not be made
before a jury on the basis that the
jury is to consider the guilt or in
nOcence Of the accused merely re-
garding the specific onense before
it. The Judge in passing sentence
later, may take the prior offense
into account.
Before the trial began, Judge
Carey told both Houston Wilson,
attorney for PettyjOhn, and Meyer
Ableman, assistant deputy attorney
general, that no mention of the
prior conviction was to be men,
toned.

Deputy Prime Minister of
Ireland William A. Norton
came to Washington Saturday
night with Mrs. Norton spe-
cifically to see what can be
done to start the smoke of
successful capital curling above
his pastoral land.
To start things of on Q
proper pitch the attractive
Irish Ambassador and Mrs.

Nortons Saturday night and q
big reception yesterday after
noon where they were toasted
in Ireland's most-prized prod
uct, Irish whiskey.
This party came just two
hours after the dryest club in
Washington had feted Con-
gress' newest and youngest
couple, the John D. Dingell,
jrs. Since this affair at the
Congressional Club also drew
droves, one can surmise that
nobody objects to drinking
only coffee and fruit Juice as
early as 4 in the afternoon.
