fore noon that day. Mrs. Siegworth said that only Mr. Gammon called at her store and that she did not see Lee. Mrs. Bessie Williams, another eyewitness to the tragedy, testified that she and her daughter were walking in front of Ayres when the car left the line of traffic and headed toward the sidewalk.

“I gave my daughter a push toward the building and I jumped toward thé curb and the car passed between us, brushing my daughter’s dress,” she testified. * Mrs, Williams said %4hat later she was assisted into the store where she collapsed.

describing’ Lee’s treatment at the hospital for epilepsy. Judge Samuel E. Garrison then permitted the cards to be used as state’s evidence. One card was made out when Lee was taken to the hospital after Le collapsed in a grocery store on June 10, and the other was a report of treatment following the accident on July 20.

Advised Lee to See Doctor

Miss Bernice White, hospital admitting officer, identified = the records and said Lee was “extremely nervous” when she saw him on June 10. She testified that she asked him if he was always that nervous. He replied, “when I've been drinking,” and then told her he had been drinking two days before, Miss White further stated that when she saw the defendant again| on July 20, she said to him, “Don’t you remember I told you that you ought to see a doctor when you were here before?” and Lee replied, “Yes, I did.” Another witness, William ' L. Scheerer, proprietor of a drug store at 5229 E, Washington st., told the jury that he had sold Lee two half pints of whisky several times a

The state contends that the accident was due to an epileptic seizure which left Lee unconscious at the wheel of his car, that Lee knew he was subject to such attacks, and that he had ‘been warned by doc-{ tors to abstain from heavy drinking.

Get One Day’s Rest Last night's raid followed a day of rest for allied airmen after a day-and-night offensive—the most intensive of the “war—that lasted four nights .and three days, the most intensive non-stop aerial assault in history. Targets ranged from war factories at Nurnberg in southern Germany to axis U-boat bases on the French Atlantic coast.

‘The present series of raids got under way last Wednesday night with the 74th raid of the war on the northwestérn Germany naval base of Wilhelmshaven. The non-stop phase began 24 hours later.

invasion and an announcement that Maj. Gen. Russell P. Hartle has been appointed commander of American forces in Britain “in the field” was regarded as a further indication that invasion preparations are in an advanced stage. May Take a Good While The British radio bluntly said that Gen. Hartle would command American troops in “the invasion of Europe” from Britain, Naturally no indication was forthcoming as to how long the period of air prepartion might continue. But it would be no surprise if it were accompanied by commandotype assaults for testing the coastal defenses and generally heightening the Nazi jitters. In any event it was regarded as axiomatic that the softening-up period will require considerable time. None here thought that a few successive nights of bombing would knock out the highly efficient German air force and land strength.
