COLLEGE OF LAW, WILLAMETTE UNIVERSITY PEDESTRIAN DAMAGES The defendant motorist made a At about six o'clock in the even- timely motion, denied by the trial ing. six-year old i'aul, dressed in I white shirt, light colored pants and white tennis shues, dashed across the street to get some bal loons from a service station. A motorist, driving 30 miles per hour in a 35 niile-porhour zone, suddenly saw Pail running in the street and braked his automobile but the left headlight struck the youngster. A dimly lighted street lamp, lo cated at the southeast corner of Ihe intersection of "X" and "Y" streets where the accident occur red, flickered as dusk settled over the business area. Across "X" Street Paul, it was determined, was running north across "X" street in the west crosswalk, while the defendant motorist was driving west on "X" street in the north traffic lane. Just north of the cen ter line of "X" street, the car and youngster came together. John, Paul's brother, later testi fied in court (hat after one car went by both he and Paul started running across "X'' street. John noticed the car coming at them and he stopped and frantically yelled for Paul to stop, but Paul did not hear him. THE LAW A PUBLIC SERVICE OF THE ( court, lor a directed verdict the gro ind that the evidence fail ed to show negligence on his part. At the conclusion of the trial, the jury, nevertheless, found in favor of the motorist. The case was ap pealed. Four Findings In viewing the charges of neg ligence against the defendant, the Oregon Supreme Court found: 1. No evidence of failure to keep a lookout. Plaintiff ran out fast into the street from behind one moving vehicle and in front of an other and it appears that Ihe de fendant saw plaintiff as soon as it was ..'easonably possible to have seen a pedestrian under tho cir cumstances. It appears probable that the eastbound traffic effec tively blocked defendant's vision toward the south curb, and there appears nothing to have put de fendant on notice that children or other pedestrians would be or were running into the street. 2. That any control defendant could have exercised toward avert ing the collision under Ihe circum stances shown is speculative. 3. That Ihe posted speed at this location was 35 miles per hour. The estimate of defendant's speed was 30 miles per hour. 4. That it is apparent defendant made a reasonable effort to stop and there was no opportunity to have yielded the right of way to plaintiff. The court held that the evidence failed to establish negligence on the part of the defendant. Defend ant was entitled to have had his motion for a directed verdict al lowed.

Heading the list of stale legisla tors to win approval of the voters was .Mrs. Julia Butler Hansen, veteran Calhlamet Democrat, who will seek the 3rd District seat vacated by the dealh of Kep. Russell V. Mack. Her selection gives Washington voters a chance in November to send two women to the House of Representatives, since Mrs. Cath erine May of Yakima was unop posed in the Republican nomina tion for the 41h District. The only incumbents to face opposition from within the party were Walt Horan, Wenatchee Re publican, and Don Magnuson, Se attle Democrat. lloran's opponent for Ihe 5th District nomination, Mrs. Dorothy Rochon Powers, Spokane newspa perwoman, conceded early in the evening.

Ashley of Co ville with only 110 precincts unreported. Ihe race for Ihe Republican nomination in Magnuson's district was a tight one between John Stender, Auburn union leader, and former King County proserutor End To College Criticism Asked By Conway SALKM (AP)-A plea that col leges and high schools quit criti cizing each other so much was made here loday by John S. Con way, director of secondary educa tion in the slate Department of Education. He told a joint meeting of the state boards of education and higher education such criticism is partially responsible for the pub lic's lack of confidence in the schools. Conway pleaded for closer rela tionships between colleges and Searchers Find Missing Capsule VANDENBERC AIR FORCE BASE, Calif. (AP) An Air Force search plane Wednesday night spotted the missing capsule of the Discoverer XV satellite. The capsule had been all but given up lor lost when a JC54 plane found it bobbing in the sea, near Christmas Island. Beeping' and flashing, it was about 1,000 miles southwest of the recovery area north of Hawaii where it should have landed. The Air Force said an amphib ious plane will land as soon as there is enough light. "The sea condition is favorable for a landing to pick up the cap sule," an official added. 11 would be the third straight lime the United States has sent a capsule into orbit and recovered it. The capsule of Discoverer XIV was plucked from the air Aug. 19 as it parachuted into Ihe recov ery area near the Hawaiian Is lands. Discoverer XIll's capsule slipped past air-catch planes but was pulled from the ocean. The 300-pound capsule of Dis coverer XV had popped loose from its rocket carrier on sched ule on the satellite's 17th trip over the Arctic Wednesday afternoon. But as it parachuted seaward it missed the recovery area where flying boxcars circled, trailing snaring devices. A radar station al Kaena Point Oahu, made a fleeting track of the capsule plunging toward the sea. ' Discoverer XV was launched Tuesday at Vandenberg Air Force Base into a nearly perfect polar orbit. 11 carried nothing but in struments, some of them being tested for use in later reconnais sance satellites.

In another close contest, three Democrats battled in the 1st Dis trict for the chance to run against Rep. Thomas M. Pell, who was unopposed in the primary. Carl Viking Holnian, Richard K. Pell and Carl Carlson, all of Seattle, were only a handful of votes apart. .Mrs. Hansen's November op ponent apparently will lis Slate Sen. Dale Nnrdquist of Cenlralia.

In the 3rd, the vote was nearly even, while Ihe Democrats held a healthy margin in the Tth. - High School high schools, asserting Ihey have too much in common to engage in public bickering. Dr. John R. Richards, chancel lor of higher education, said "pro fessors often look down their noses at high schools. There is an intel lectual conflict between the high schools and colleges." Conway said most Oregon school administrators approve the new plan whereby a C average is need ed, for admission to the state, uni versity and colleges. He said they probably would favor a little more highlening of entrance require ments. But he urged that colleges give greater weight to recommenda tions made by high school prin cipals as to whether the students should go to college. Answering criticism by colleges that high schools do not prepare students for college, Conway said many high school honor students report college freshman work dull and repetitive. To make college more fruitful for brilliant students, the univer sity is starting a separate four year honors course this fall. Richards said advanced stu dents will take special courses in lilcrature. history, social science and natural science in freshman and sophomore years. In junior and senior years, the schedule will include honors seminars, re search, honors papers and Inde pendent study, In addition to regu lar work. Oregon State College started a similar program last fall in science. Oregon College of Educa tion is working on such a plan.
