Constable Francis Dryden of the OPP told the court the ac- cused had chopped down one pole in August because the phone company disconnected his phone, "He hadn't paid his bill for two months so they disconnect- ed the phone from the pole,"' re- lated the constable. "He decided that he wanted phone service and that he would hook it up himself. He couldn't do it on the pole so he cut the pole down. He actually got the phone working again, too. "The linemen from the com- pany expressed fear at going back to disconnect the phone a second time. They said that Glass had threatened to "'take a shotgun to them", -- The constable added that the linesmen did return on Sept. 2 and took down the wires lead- ing to the house. He said that Glass. then went out and chopp- ed down a corner pole and tha the wires went across the road, disrupting traffic. Glass said he needed a phone So that he could get groceries. He said he was too sick with the flu to drive' his car. "IT can't see why anyone. who is strong. enough to chop down two telephone poles cannot drive a car," commented Magistrate Baxter. Constable Dryden said tha Glass had told him that he would never come to court. 'So IT went and put him in the cruiser and brought him here." Glass was remanded in or- der that he might be examined by a psychiatrist, ; WINS PROMOTION 'Frank O. Salt, son of Mr. and Mrs. F. R. Salt, Town- line Rd.

THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesdey, September 4, 1963 3 BOWMANVILLE (Staff) -- A Bowmanville man, who purport- edly made $6,000 a year as 4 bootlegger was fined a total of $2,000 and costs or six months in jail for his activities by Magis- trate R. B. Baxter here Tues- day. : * Chief Constable Bernard Kit- ney of the Bowmanville Police told the court he estimated Lorne Stevens' profit yearly from the illegal. sale of alcohol at $6,000, He said he based this figure on receipts found when police raided Stevens' home, Stevens pleaded guilty to charges of bootlegging and the illegal obtaining of alcohol. He was fined $1,000 or three months on each charge. : Chief Kitney testified that on the night of Aug. 11, Corporal Kays Freethy and Constable Tracy Davis stopped a car they had. observed leaving Stevens' home. FOUND LIQUOR "The found two men in the car with three pints and one quart of rye. They told the offi- cers that they had paid Stevens $16 for the liquor; "The officers returned to the house, which had been declared a public place last April, and found 20 pints of rye in a case hidden in a cold air register. 'It has been illegal for him to purchase any liquor since April 4. He was convicted of charges similar to these at that time and his home was declared a public place and his right to purchase liquor was revoked, "T feel that he is being sup- plied by the agent of some dis- tillery," the chief concluded. ENTER GUILTY PLEAS Defence Attorney Dick Love- kin, of Newcastle, entered the guilty pleas but asked the court to believe that his client's action was one of stupidity and not of disregard for the law. "My client told me that the last police raid not know it wa then." Say Bootlegger Made $60 00 Year may have been there at that time. , : Mr, Lovekin reminded the. court that there was no v. of liquor found, as would cate that the accused was ac- tively bootlegging, in disrespect of the law. J "He said that those four bottles he sold to the men in the car were the last ones he. had. He was unaware of the stuff in the duct." "Sort of a going-out-of-busi- ness sale," quipped Magistrate Baxter. Mr. Lovekin asked leniency - from the court, stating that his client was not a well man and that he was well-liked popu- lar citizen of the town. : ACT OF STUPIDITY "If I were in your position, your Worship, and thought for, one minute that he went out and flagrantly disobeyed the law, I would take a dim view of him. However, I am convinced that his act was one of stupidity in not disposing of the liquor in some other way, not one of evil intent." Mr, Lovekin asked for a fine, rather than a prison term. The Crown did not object to this. Magistrate Baxter stated that he feared that the fine he in- tended to impose might send the accused back to bootlegging. "It is a boomerang type of thing," his Worship warned. "In many cases the accused reverts back to his old trade in order to pay his fine." ; CITY AND DISTRICT NO DAMAGE The Oshawa Fire Department reported a small fire Tuesday @ 460 Montrave Avenue. The fire was caused by a cutting torch. The fire department said there liquor had been there from the}was no damage. that he did confiscated!
