Between 11:30 and 12:30 two ar—
rests were made for failure of owners
of cars to carry numbers on the front
of their machines. Both arrests were
made by Chief of Police Thomas Tirad-

was required. after a consultation be-

The first arrest was that of William
E. Henebry, a Danbury liquor dealer.
Henebry and four companions were
on their return from a two days‘ trip
to the White Plains fair, in his forty
horsepower four-cylinder Winton, with
semi touring body, and one of the
members of the party was "Doc" Gin-

ly the result of a. little detective work
on the part of Mayor Wallace Dane,
who discovered the state of affairs on
theoar with resistance to the noun-
bers while a stop was made In front
of the Norwalk Hotel. The mayor
told the chief and the arrest followed
shortly afterward. ‘
