Clinton News-Record, 1961-11-02, Page 12Peg. 12--Cli10on N,wln*Rncor4—<-Thurs., Nov, 2 , 1961 'Teen Agers Are Charged Under Liquor Act 1Vlagistrate• Glen Hays .refus- ed to believe the story of Dominic Gabwiler, 19, RR 2, Clinton, who claimed he had found a full bottle of wine in the ditch with the seal not broken, and had set out to drink it. Appearing in court ,here .on Wednesday morning, Gahwiler was fined $25 and costs, It was a ffirat offence. Magistrate Hays pointed out that actually there were two offences: consumption under the age of 21, and having fin a place other than one's resi- dence. Constable A. Shaddiek had discovered the boy in: the back seat of his car with the bottle of wine, with one-quarter of it gone, Magistrate Hays reason- ed that the boy's story was most unlikely, and that he had probably .gotten the wine from a bootlegger, and if he had sufficient money to pay boot- legger's prices, then it . natur- ally followed that he could af- ford! a heavy fine. Thomas J. Shanahan, RR 1, Clinton, was fined $60 and costs on a charge of having beer in a place other than his residence. Constable C. Perdue had discovered the beer in the Shanahan car as it was parked on the Huron Fish and Game lot. Magistrate Has warned' that this was a second offence,• which carries a minimum fine of $200. However, "Since the crown and the police have seen fit to Ibe lenient and not mention this in their charge, • then the fine will not be so large." Gerry Becker, 16, Clinton, was fined $15 and costs on a careless .driving charge arising out of a • rear end collision some weeks ago on Victoria Street, Clinton, and his licence was suspended for 30 days. James George McAlpine, 18, RCAF Station Clinton, was fin- ed $30 and costs for having Jackpot Won By Beattie Shopper Mrs, Wiuia Batkin, inion is the luc- ky winner of the weekly .jaekpat of $5.00. S'he made her purch- ase at the Beat- tie Furniture st- �1 ore, .one of the merchants tak- ing pant in the ,jackpot feature. The News -Record Jackpot will continue until mid-Decere- bet, with, big draws for $50 and $15 (in addition to the weekly $5) taking place on November 21 and December 19. These wins should be handy for Christmas shopping. Check the ,advertisements of the Jack- pot stores on page four. There are numbers of bargains there. unlawfully obtained beer. Con- stable M. Groves found the Mc- Alpine car parked in a field in Stanley Township, with 15 pints of ale, and a lady friend, also from the Station, who, however, was over 21. Crown Attorney Bushfield noted that McAlpine had got- ten the beer in some nefarious manner from the mess at the Station. Since 'the person re- sponsible for supplying it was severely dealt with by the RCAF, no charge was laid by civil authorities, Magistrate Glen Hays re- marked upon the "doubtful privilege" of those under 21, getting beer on the Station, a privilege which "does not pre- vail legally to civilians." McAlpine, on course at Sta- tion Clinton since June, is un- dergoing 14 days detention and pay is cut off meanwhile, so time was given for payment of the fine.
