Kevin Becker of RR2, Walkerton pled not guilty to both counts, April 16. The charges were laid after an incident July 19 in Morris Twp. Const. Karavelus told presiding Judge Garry Hunter that he had activated the radar after seeing a speeding car, coming towards him from the south on Hwy 4 at 11:15 p.m.. After locking in the speed at 120 km., he turned the cruiser to follow. The officer said it appeared the car was. actually pulling away from him. As he followed the radar showed a speed of 130 km. Upon stopping the car, the driver identified himself as the accused. Another man was with him. Detecting an odour of alcohol and noticing that Becker's eyes were "bloodshot and watery" the officer asked him to step from the car. When asked for a breath sample, Becker said he understood, but as People Lou Maloney and Ken Preszcador took first place at the euchre games at Walton Hall last week. Ruth and Bill Jenkins were second place winners with Delores Howatt and Margaret Anderson taking third place.

Cranbrook and Atwood ladies are to supply the light lunch for the 10 a.m. coffee break on Wednesday at the meeting of the Synod for Southwestern Ontario, Hamilton and London. The synod is meeting on April 21 and 22 in 'Stratford. Plans were made for the lunch. Eleanor Stevenson took the topic from the second chapter of the resource book "Loaves and Fishes". The Bible story for this chapter is taken from Genesis 45, verses 13- 16. Joseph took all livestock from his he followed the Karavelus back to the cruiser Becker ran off into a field. Karavelus said as the man was identified, he didn't give chase. During his investigation he later learned that the accused was on a bail recognizance with a curfew order stating he must be home between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m. Defense Counsel Colin Campbell noted, however, that an amendment had been made days prior to this allowing Becker to be out during those hours for purposes of work. Campbell questioned Karavelus on when he learned of this and if he had checked to see if Becker had been travelling from work that night. The existence of the amendment made it possible to assume that his client was perhaps working at that time of night, he said. This was an issue that Campbell felt should have investigated. Judge Hunter didn't agree, however. "Isn't that the-knowledge of the accused? Once the evidence is in that he's out after curfew there's an onus shift and the obligation is on the part of the accused to show why he's out." Campbell argued, however, that he didn't feel it was incumbent on the accused to prove a condition he's under. "But the only one who knows if he's employed is the accused," -brothers in ruurn for land and life in Egypt. The brothers sowed the seed on land which Joseph gave them and in return they had to give a fifth of the crop back to Pharaoh. This is an example of showing hospitality to the poor, even to those who cannot give hospitality back. There are several examples of helping the poor from congregations here in Southern Ontario. Churches have banded together to send cows to Guatemala and goats to Nicaragua to supplement the food intake for the children and give them a more proper diet. These animals have specially built quarters for their life in a hot humid climate. countered Judge Hunter, to which Campbell replied that the amendment is proof of employment. With regards to the other charge, Campbell said there was reasonable doubt that his client had consumed over 80 mg. During questioning Karavelus said that he had not arrested Becker on the spot for impaired as he did not feel he had the evidence to support it. Other than speeding the accused had not shown any other signs of erratic driving. However, after smelling alcohol, Karavelus said he wanted a breath sample to determine whether Becker was driving with over 80 mg. of alcohol in his system. Questioned as to why he had asked Becker to step from the car, Karavelus said it was for his own safety. "It was dark, there were two men in the car and I was alone on the side of the road." In finding Becker guilty on both counts, Judge Hunter said he accepted the officer's evidence on all events leading up to the "point where he and the accused parted." He also stressed with regards to the second count that the onus to prove he was employed was on the accused. Because Becker lives with his mother and is the sole source of income, Campbell asked that sentencing be postponed so that arrangements could be made.
