WINNINGS CAUSE PUNCH IN NOSE DETROIT (AP) - Joseph Glinski who won $140,000 on the Irish Sweepstakes last week, hasn’t collected anything yet but a punch on the nose. Records at the Chene precinct police station show the 64-year old bachelor's troubles started the night newspapers carried reports that he owned a winning ticket. The police account told the story this way: Glinski stepped into a neighborhood bar where he met an acquaintance, Stanley Pluta, 41. Pluta ordered drinks for all. The bartender asked for the money, some $6 or $7, and Pluta replied: “Joe’s going to pay because he just won all the money.” “The heck I am,” replied Glinski declared. “You ordered them; you pay.” At that point, Pluta punched Glinski. Pluta was held overnight by charge.
