iii charge on November 16,
1S.BO received a severe repri-
nxhiid from alagistrate Hays,
besides his jail term.
•`~ consider anyone who
drives while wider suspension
is.'aking a deliberate risk," he
said. "1 have no patience with
people who show such a con.
rept of authorities who have
amended your license."
He -warned the youth, that it
he ever appeared again on the
clierge, he would spend con-
siderable more time than three
days in jail, .

had been picked up and showed

fined. a total of $50 and costs
on the charges.
The magistrate bad original
ly set the fine at $60 for lite

maximum fine for each count
"You are:the beneficiary o

Guilty of fraud
A 17 -year-old Strathrov area
youth. a ward of the Middle-
sex County Children's Aid :So-
ciety, was given a one year
suse en
p ded sentence and was
ordered to post a bond of $200
after he pleaded guilty on a
charge of intent to fraud.
Jason Brown, who obtained
credit from an Exeter merch-
ant by using a wrong name,
wrong address and wrong place
of employment, was: ordered
to keep the peace for one year,
make restitution in the amount
of 515.41, put under- supervision
of a probation officer, directed
not to borrow money or buy
on credit without the written
consent of the probation offi-
cer, and told to obey all in-
structions given by the Chil-
dren's Aid Society,
Brown admitted going into
an Exeter store with a friend,
Bob Wagstaffe, and receiving
a pair, of pants, shirt and. a
pair of stockings.
Wagstaffe also received sev-
eral articles, but paid for
thein, and then gave Brown
55.00' to make a deposit on his
clothing. Brown told the store
owner his name was Ray Pat-
terson of RR 3 Strathroy and
he was working at Canadian
Canners in Exeter.
A. worker from the CAS told
the court that they had not
known Brown's whereabouts
since August,
"There are people who want
to help you," the magistrate
told Brown, "but they don't
want to waste their time if you
are going to act like a hood-
lum."
Dismiss charge
. A charge of failing to remain
at the scene of an accident was
dismissed against Gaston Cas-
tonguay, 31, Sudbury, because
Magistrate Hays "had a reas.
enable doubt" that the ac-
cused even knew he had' been
in an accident,
Castonguay, was travelling
south on Highway four when.
he struck the right fender of
another southbound car that
was in a lineup of several cars
that were stopped to allow a
gravel truck to dump its load
on the construction job south of
Centralia.
The Sudbury man's car
veered into the ditch and he left
it about five minutes later. He
was later picked up by Con-
stables Don Westover and Hank
Reid at the Central Hotel, Exe-
ter.
Douglas Keillor, driver of the
other car, and James Jamie-
son, a passenger in the car,
both of London, reported that
the collision had not made too
much noise and there was very
little damage caused to either
car.
They testified that they went
to Castoguay's car and opened
the door and noticed a strong
smell of alcohol, "He just
smiled sheepishly," K e i 1.l o r
stated.
They also testified that he
would have had to pull. into
the ditch, because there was a
stalled north -hound car in his
lane and Ile would have hit it
unless he pulled into the ditch,
The magistrate agreed with
defense Lawyer, D. T. Murphy,
Goderieh, that Castonguay was
facing a serious situation with
the Car ahead, and niay not
have heard the crash because
he was concentrating on avoid-
ing a collision with the north-
bound car.
