Parking Charge
Is Dismissed
A truck driver, charged with
parking. his _vehicle • on the side-
walk, was cleared in magistrate's
court here Thursday.
Defence counsel Frank Donnelly
Submitted that if the truck driver
was there for the purpose of, load-
ing or unloading, he wasnot park-
ed within the meaning of the by-
law.
Magistrate D. E. Holmes gave
the driver the benefit of the,,tipubt,
but advised him not to do it again.
With -a -ktile change- the- ward,
ing, the' charge might. have a dif-
ferent outcome next 'time, he com-
mented.
The truck, owned by a transport.
firm, was -parked on the sidewalk
on 'South street, beside the{hotel,
on January 28. The driver said
he had to deliver 110 cases of
canned goods weighing about
3,200 pounds.
Beea,use the alley was ' full of
snow and ice, it was necessary to•'
drive up on the, sidewalk to de-
liver, he stated,
Magistrate Holmes .termed the
existing town '` traffic bylaw
"weird," but, as he recalled, it was
drawn up at a time when horses
and buggies were still a popular
form or tf hsportation..
"I haven't seen any sign -
of the
new by-law," added the magistrate
but he understood from what ap-
peared In the newspaperthat Town
Council is in the proces5 of 'giving
birth to a new by-law.
The manner in '.which vehicles
parked and manoeuvered on- local
streets on Thursday—the day the'
new store opened on the Square—
was weird, -too, . the magistrate re-
marked.
A possible explanation was of-
fered by Mr.' Donnelly:
"There were some free pounds
of coffee, your worship. Five
hundred pounds, I'm told," said
Mr. Donnelly, smiling.
FOR OBSERVATION
On recommendation of two doc-
tors, Magistrate D. E. 'Holmes
Thursday committed an 18 -year-
old district youth to Ontario Hos-
pital at London for, a period of
observation. A Wingham doctor
testified that the youth fails to
weigh, the consequences of his ac-
tions. Evidence was aiso given by
