INCREASES BAIL OF THIEF SUSPECT
Magistrate HUGHES raised the bail of Anthony MELOSCI, 16, of 1412 Neck road,
arrested on a charge of felonious assault March 12, from $1,000 to $5,000
when the boy appeared with his attorney in Coney Island court today to ask
for another adjournment until April 2.
The adjournment was granted, and the bail was raised at the request of Louis
JOSEPH, an assistant district attorney.
MELOSCI, it was alleged struck Daniel REYNOLDS, son of John J. REYNOLDS,
custodian of P. S. 206, Neck road and East Twenty-second street, when
Reynolds ordered MELOSCI and four other boys to get out of the school one
afternoon immediately after the reported loss of a purse containing earrings
valued at $1,000. According to the complainant, MELOSCI and his four friends
had returned because of the lost purse, and not because of school work.
COURT CONVINCES DISOBEDIENT SON
Solomon KORNBLUTH, 19, of 1962 Sixtieth street, haled into Coney Island court
before Magistrate HUGHES today, left court feeling a lot happier, and more
firmly entrenched in the belief that all bad luck is only comparative. His
appearance was the result of a complaint filed by his mother, Mrs. Annie
KORNBLUTH, who asserted her son struck her several times, was disobedient,
and sulked around the house because he couldn't go to college.
Magistrate HUGHES told him of his struggles to get an education from the age
of ten to the present day when he holds three college degrees. Solomon was
finally convinced that a night school education would serve the same end as a
college degree, and left feeling that perhaps the magistrate was right and to
put on his rose-colored glasses in the future.
