Show Tuesday, April 22, 1947 DAILY HERALD Judge Assails Motives Of Driver In Appealing Case Chareinff the defendant with' previously admitting the essence of the charges and appealing the case only with the hope of saving his driver's license by getting a confused jury. District Judge W. Stanley Dunford slapped a total fine of $150 on Archibald Edgar Overman Monday after conviction convic-tion on two traffic counts. Overman, Salt Lake City motorist, had appealed speed-ins- and improper passing charges to the district court after conviction in the Spanish Span-ish Fork precinct court. A district court jury deliberated deliber-ated two hours last night to return a verdict of guilty on both counts after a day long trial before Judge Dunford. Following the verdict. Overman's Over-man's counsel told Judge Dunford that the case had been appealed in attempt to save Overman's driver's license, endangered by previous traffic convictions. Judge Dunford delivered a stern admonition ad-monition to the defendant that he felt the court had been put to a great deal of unnecessary expense ex-pense and trouble in view of this, and reminded Overman of the record in the precinct court on the case. This record, the judge said, related that Overman had admitted the esence of both charges, but said he would plead not guilty and fight the case in an attempt to save his drivers license. It cost Overman exactly $110 in increased fines, plus his trial expenses, to appeal the case. Had he accepted the ' precinct court verdict, he would have escaped with $15 on the improper passing charge and $25 on the speeding speed-ing count. In the trial Monday, Overman pleaded mistaken identity as his defense, claiming that State Highway High-way Patrolman Charles Allred had confused him with another motorist.

"This reduction crushes the hopes of countless veterans for homesteads in the west. "The west is not asking for a subsidy or a dole ...

Needle Removed From Lung In Rare Operation PORTLAND, Ore., April 22 (U.R) Denise Yancey, 15, of Boise, Ida., was reported recovering re-covering satisfactorily at St. Vincent's hospital here today after the removal of a needle from her lung, an operation hospital attendants described as seldom performed. Her physician, whose name was not disclosed, said the operation could be classified as "rare" because an injury of the type suffered by the Boise girl was very rare. Denise fell back on the needle Friday night while sewing, forcing it into her lung. She was flown here Saturday, accompanied by her father, E. H. Yancey. The end of the needle was not apparent at first, but as the lung partly collapsed the end appeared, and the doctor extracted the needle with an instrument late yesterday.
