Driver With 70
Vio|ationsJa Jailed

! A 25-year- old man who led
police on a chase through North
east Washington and then
walked out OF No. 8 Precinct
Station before he was booked got
240 days in jail yesterday for
driving with a revoked permit
and driving without proper tags.
Traffic Court Judge Mildred E.
Reeves gave Anthony r. Rush,
of the 1400 block of East Capitol
street, a $500 fine. or 1870 more
days for a second offense of driv-
ing with revoked permit. She
also gave him a 5000 fine or 80
days for reckless driving during
a high-speed chase on Novem-
Der 20, when Rush was charged
with 20 moving violations.
Rush got a $65 fine or 40 days
on two speeding charges, but the
Corporation Counsel's Office did
not prosecute him on charges Of
failing to observe seven stop
signs, seven flashing red lights,
and failing to slow down at an
intersection.
! Traffic Division Pvt. Eugene r.
Blakenship said he chased Rush
to Fourth and K. streets N. E.
and told him to drive to No. 9
Precinct Station. Both went in
side but Rush asked to go to
the mems room. When he came
out he walked out the door and
drove away. Pvt. Blakenship
gave chase, but lost him. Rush
was arrested later on a warrant.
Rush's driving permit was re-
voked in 1858 after he got IL
traffic points. In 1854, he was
sent to Jail for 60 days for OPP
Grating after revocation. Later
that year, he got 45-day Jail
term for operating again after
his permit was revoked.
A check of traffic records by
Pvt. Blankenship turned UP an
other traffic violation in May
1856, so Rush was charged with
a third case Of driving after re-
vocation. The November % chase
made the fourth case.

at the embassy by Signora
Brosio.
Following lunch the ambas-
sador Joined the group and in
an informal talk told the
guests that they were being
asked to give their opinions on
some Italian perfumes-from
the packaging to the actual
scent.
The ambassador said that
Italy wanted to widen its selec-
tons of imports to America
and therefore wanted to study
the American market and how
to sell their products.
He said. "As Italians we are
sensitive to the charm Of the
fair sex and so today we start
with perfume-later there will
be other products"
The ambassador went on to
say that they planned to ex-
tend these polls in other States
and communities. He said
that he wanted the panelists
to be completely free and hon.
est in their Suggestions,
judgments. criticisms and how
the product could be sold
better"
Speaking in a role seldom
seen in the diplomatic circle,
Ambassador Brosio said that
it was not enough to have
good products but that you
alsL had to know how to sell
them.
1--WE hope to turn this &C
tivity of promotion into an
activity of big sales" said the
envoy.
In concluding, the ambassa-
dor. who doesn't lack for a
sense of humor, added, For
once you can say we Italians
are systematic"
If the Ambassador or Sig
nora Brosio thought that the
group would be shy in criticiz-
ing the perfumes they were
mistaken. Everything from
the size and shade of the box,
the design of the bottle. the

THE Hungarian people have

only peaceful intentions and
that they are defenders of Co.

sioners held next day that Mr..
Enlow still was sheriff.
