1ST APPEAR TO
LEARN SENTENCE
W. G. Nelson, Indicted for failure
to render aid following an accident.
through hie attorney, 'George M. Rob
erts, entered a plea or guilty this
morning, before Circuit Judge H. D.
Norton. Request of counsel that sen
tence be passed was denied, upon the
grounds thst Nelson was not present.
"I thought that. Inasmuch as Nel
son hss a Job In Portland." said At
torney Roberts, "that by not making
a personal appearance all concerned
would be benefited, and there was a
possibility Nelson might retain his
Job."
"There Is considerable variance be
tween what the district attorney says
and what you say," replied the court.
"I desire to have a clearer working
knowledge of the case. From what
the district attorney says, there was
aggravation, and It may be that Mr.
Nelson will not be In need of a Job
ror some time."
Nelson Is charged with seriously ln
Jurlng S. W. Baize, watchman of the
Central Point cut-off road construc
tion, last May, when he failed to
heed Baize's warning to halt.
The court directed that Nelson be
returned from Portland on a bench
warrant, and that Baize appear In
court. Baize la not fully recovered
from hla Injuries.
District Attorney Codding, stating
the state's position, said that Nelson
had passed Baize, who had a flash
light In one hand and a red flag in
the other, at a high speed, that he
struck Baize with tha front of his
auto and sped on without giving as.
sistance. One-way traffic rules on
the cut-off were In effect.
The defense held that Nelson wss
employed by the construction com
pany, that ha was on his way to re
pair some trucks, snd that his ear
skidded, striking Balse, after which
"the young man lost his head and
drove on." Attorney Roberta admit
ted Nelson was traveling at a "con
siderable pace."
The state further contended that
"Nelson wss not engaged on company
business at the time of the accident,
but was rushing to some kind of
social activity at Central Point.
Sentence will be passed on Nelson
when he appears In court.
