Mulholten Sentenced
On Exposure Charge
James Henry Mulhollen, 82,
of 925 North Central avenue,
was sentenced in district court
this morning on a charge of In-1
decent exposure after he chang
ed a Tuesday plea of innocent to
guilty. Judge Rawles Moore sen
tenced the defendant to one
year In the county jail to be sus
pended at the end of six months
upon satisfactory showing of
good behavior, or earlier, If the
Widening Started
Or Dakota Avenue
Workmen for Contractor
Everett DenHerder yesterday
started work ots the widening of
Dakota avenue from Oakdaie
avenue to King street, city offic
ials said today.
Denherder is moving equip
ment for the job from East Main
steet, where preliminary work
on widening the street has been
completed.
Contractors have also started
paving of Murray street from
Plum to Hamilton streets, a pro
ject which was carried over by
the city from last year because
of the inadvisability of starting
paving work during winter
months.
16 Projects Contracted
The city now has 16 street im
provement projects contracted,
including 11 which were award
ed this year, three carried over
from 1951 and the two widening
jobs. Approximately 18,035 lin
eal feet of street is involved.
In addition, another 10 pro
jects wilt probably be contracted
for at the next regular meeting
of the city eouncii. Bids have
been received on these projects,
all of which involve street pav
ing. Engineer's estimates on the
10 projpets total an amount in
excess of $100,000.
The city has also received pe
titions for 25 other street and
alley paving jobs. Plans are now
being prepared for the projects
and they are awaiting contracts.
Coal is consumed In greater
tonnage than any other commod
ity produced by man.
authorities deem the defendant
rehabilitated.
District Attorney Paul Havi-
land recommended to the court
that the defendant be sentenced
to one year "because his condi
tion was ascertained to be con
tinuous for a long period of
time."
