 New Milford

Hartford, June S.-Mrs. Virginia E. Zimmer. of 25S West 44th street, New York. an actress, brought suit for s25,000 damages against pr. Howard G. Stevens of New Milford in the U. S. district court here to- day before Judge Edwin s. Thomas charging malpractice. Mrs. Zimmer charges that Dr. Stevens failed to diagnose her injuries correctly when she was thrown from a load of hay on her husbands farm in August, 1923, and that as a result of the insufficient treatment her in- juries were given she may never be able to obtain employment on the stage again.
 Mrs. Zimmer maintains that al- though she repeatedly told Dr. Stevens that something was wrong with her neck he assured her it was nothing but strained ligament and would heal with time. A doctor she went to later took an X-Ray of her neck and found a serious frac- ture. She further says that the bones In her wrist had to be reset later because pr. Stevens failed to observe a double fracture.
 The defense denies all the allesa- tons. Leo Davis of NorwalK repre- sents the actress and J. F. Addis Of New Milford the defense.
