ORMISTON Editor and Manager PHONE 703 - THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE, Saturday, May ' 9, 1953 WHITBY AND DISTRICT NEWS -- A CHUBBY ONE-YEAR-OLD Stephen Gallo, one-year-old a few days ago, is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Stephen John Gallo, of 417 Byron Street South, who have been residents of Whitby for some time, $32,174.44 Damages Awarded at Whitby Damages totalling more than $32,000 have been awarded three) laintiffs by Mr. Justice Wilson, at | Bapreme Court, non-jury sittings, in Whitby. Mr. and Mrs. Paul Holliday, | formerly of Bowmanvillle but now | of Winnipeg, and Robert Spencer, | of North Oshawa, have been award- ed damages totalling $32,174.44 in a | suit against Carman Choate, also of | Oshawa. . | A, W. 8. Greer, QC, of Oshawa, | presented the case for the three] lantiffs and Charles R. MacMil- | an, of Toronto, represented the de- | fendant. The action arose out of a | motor vehicle accident on Septem- | ber 22nd, 1951, on Highway 2, east | of Oshawa. : ; The case began in Whitby on Thursday morning and it required the entire day for the taking of the evidence. On Friday morning, Mr, Greer and Mr. MacMillan present- ed their arguments and at 12.30 | Jn, His Lordship had completed | assessment of damages. His | judgment awarded Paul Holliday, 28, a total of $18,943.28, of which amount $2,948.38 was claimed for out of pocket expenses incurred as @ result of Mr, Holliday's injuries. Mrs. Holliday, 23, was awarded $600 for loss of employent. Mr. Spencer, 22, was awarded a total of $12,626.06, of which amount he claimed $6,126.06 out of pocket ex- nses. ENCE Giving evidence in the case be- sides the plaintiffs, were nearly all the physicians and surgeons who {when the car which Mr. Spencer recover from partial paralysis of had attended Mr. Spencer and Mr. Holliday. The accident occurred was driving east along the highway, carrying Mrs. Spencer and Mr. and Mrs. Holliday, was struck from the rear by a car driven by Carmen Choate. The impact shot the Spenc- er vehicle into the ditch where it overturned. Mr. Holliday, he test- ified, suffered back injuries which necessitated his immediate remov- al to the Oshawa General Hospital and later to the Toronto General Hospital for further treatment after he had become partially paralyzed. | At the time of the accident, Mr. Holliday was a student of Theology while acting as assistant pastor at Bowmanville. He has since been appointed pastor of Ashburn Street Church, in. Winnipeg. Evidence by physicians indicated that, although was able to leave the hospital, he would very probably never fully the bladder and a lock of sensa- tion or numbness in the lower part of the body. Mr. Spencer, an employee of Gen- eral Motors at the time of the ac- cident, was taken to the hospital at the time for a sprained ankle, learning, after he had returned to work, that he had suffered more serious injury to the ankle. Since then, he has undergone two opera- tions and an arthritic condition has developed. At the hearing he was walking with the aid of two canes but physicians forecast that he might be able to return to work in September of this year, WHITBY BRIDGE The following eight couples re- | eéived the top scores in the bridge | game held this week: NORTH AND SOUTH Mr. and Mrs. Ed.
