DRUNKOMETER, BUT
mot THE JUDGE

MIAMI, Fla, Jan. 26 (P).
William Rose downed 20
shots of whisky in court, but
failed to discredit a police
"diunkometer' reading with
the judge.
Municipal Judge Francis
A. Sobiesky ruled yesterday
that a drunkometer reading
Of .246, reported by police
who charged Mr.. Rose with
driving while under the in
fiuence, was correct. Judge
Sobiesky set February IA for
a hearing on the charge. He
added:

PENDANTS reading of 1872
could easily have been .246
with II or IA more drinks.
Any person able to consume
such an excess should not

be out of session to avoid in

Customarily, when heads of

Congress issues such speaking
invitations to them.
But some congressional leaders
suggested today Congress might
lengthen its customary Easter
recess so 1t would be out of town
while Tito is here.
Although there has been no
official announcement, there have
been indications from diplo-
