nouncing motorists who take delight
in forcing pedestrians to jump and
warning that 'jay walkers" have
some protection under the law,
Judge Lynn, in City Court, continued
the case of Medford Cole, charged
with assault and battery by Mrs.
Rebeecca Feldman. The judge indi.
Gated a need of more rigid enforce
ment of automobile laws. or a
stricter examination Of drivers.
Mrs. Feldman suffered a fractured
right leg when Coles car struck her
ON November %. Henry r. Isaacs,
who represented Cole, contended
Mrs. Feldman was Jay walking" at
the time and stepped into the street
between intersections.
Judge Lynn, continuing the case,
said: "The running down of pedes-
trians, whether they are jay walk
ing or not, is no excuse. Many
drivers of cars appear to delight in
forcing pedestrians to jump to
safety. Right now the death cases
from automobiles on the roads and
in streets is tremendous and some
thing has to be done, whether in the
criminal courts or by having rigid
examination as to the fitness Of
drivers"
