DRUNKEN MOTORIST
FINED £lO AND LICENSE SUSPENDED By Telegraph—Press Association Hamilton, November 17. Oscar Svenson, a milking machine traveller, was fined £lO and being drunk while in charge of a motor-car. The evidence showed that accused steered a most erratic course through the main street of the town, when the traffic was somewhat busy, sometimes on the footpath and sometimes on the carriage-way, and traffic was scattered in all directions. In one case only tlie prompt action of a father saved a child in a bassinette from certain death, and two bicycles were smashed. Svenson, who undertook to make good the damage done, had his license suspended and a prohibition order issued against him.
