Judge Edward M. Lockwood has put
his foot down hard. and hereafter the
force of that stand will be felt by all
motor cyclists brought before him for

of the watcbiuiuess oi the Norwalk

Lockwood has decided to push all oth-
er offenders to the limit of the law.

Anthony Aurlllo, of Bridgeport, was
arrested yesterday by Officer Jarvis
8. Murray, who has a reputation for
being on the Job in regard to license
numbers on both autos and motor
cycles Aurlllo Was coming up West

Murray stopped him to administer. the
usual warning. Tlibn he noticed that
numbers were scarce and began an
investigation. which disclosed the fact
that the machine was a borrgwed one
and that the young man had no ll-
cease. ,

Auriilo is a straightfdrwsrd youth
and told all the circumstances of the
case truthfully. His father is to buy
him the machine when he learns to
irun it. and he was trying it out. He
is to study law. and discoxered some
ioi the first points in his chosen pro
tesslon this morning. when Judge
Lockwood lined him 85 and costs.
