Selection of a Jury In the damage
suit of I. I. McReynolds, against the
Medford Domestlo Laundry, and A.
Hamilton, one of lta employes, was
underway In circuit court today. Mc
Reynolda seelu $7700 damagea for al
leged Injuries received while riding as
on "'"eged guest passenger." in a
laundry wagon of the defendant.
The ault Is based upon an auto ac
cident on the Crater Lake highway,
two miles from the Lodge, in July
1934, when the laundry wagon driven
by Hamilton, went over an en
bankment, MoReynolda charges In his com
plaint that the accident was due to
the reckless driving of Hamilton,
down a steep grade, which caused the
laundry wagon to go over a cliff at a
curve.
The laundry charges that McRey
nolds was a "guest passenger." asked
Hamilton to ride from Prospect to
Union Creek, and later requested per
mlslson to continue to Crater Lake,
which was granted. The defendants
claim that u . "guest passenger," he
wss under no obligations to assist
Hamilton In the handling of laundry,
which he avers he dld.
The defendants cite that Hamilton,
aa the laundry driver, was proceeding
down the grade at a moderate rate of
speed and that at the curva,an ap
proaching truck travelling at high
speed was met. To avoid a crash,
Hamilton turned to the edge of the
road, whereupon the edge caved,
causing the laundry wagon to drop
down a short distance.
McReynolds Is represented by At
torney A. E. Reames. and the defend
ants by Attorneys George M. Roberts
and William McAllister.
