Contention Of
 Union City Man
 Suing For $5,OO0
Samunir Klimasiesh Claims Chester Zemorosli Forced Him to Hold Freezing Material in Hand Two Minutes v Bet Involved = Now Samunr Wants to Collect

The question before the court , is - Who made the bet?
 And the subject before the court is-dry ice.
 At least those are the issues on which Judge Ernest A. Inglis in superior court must decide the S5,OOO civil action of Samunir Klimasieski of Union City against Chester Zemoroski, Union City store keeper, which went on trial today.
 Satumnir claims his left hand was burned by piece of dry ice which he held for two minutes in order to win drinks for nine of his friends in Chester's store on May 10, 1881. Samunir testified he and his friends went into Chester s store after attending 8 dance of his Polish society in Union City on the night in question.
 Chester had something in a pa per bag and taking it out, told the group it was dry ice. The first time he had ever come in contac: with 1t. He wagered Samunir could not hold the ice in his hand for two minutes without dropping it, If Samunir held the ice for lIdL lCuE LII Ol IAAACs nv SASoNSe, would buy drinks for the crowd.
 Samunir said the ice was placed ia his left hand and then Chester held Samunir's hand, closed tightly between Chester's two hands, for two minutes. Chester then let go and asked Samunir to try and close his hand. Samunir said his hand was numb-he could not manipulate the fingers. Chester, according to Samunir, then told Samunir that the ice was "poison' and to hurry and place his hand in cold water, Samunir said. Sa- munir said Chester informed him the ice was 190 degrees below zero. Samunir said Chester gave him a drink of hooch to help him along.
 Samunir said that as a result of that experience he did not work

Anthony Colletta of 169 South Elm street. was found unconscious this morn- ing on South Main street. near City Corners and rusned to St Mary's hospital At 2 o'clock this afternoon he was still unconscious, although slight improvement was observed In his general condition. Efforts are now being made to de- termine the cause of the boys con- dition. Reports first reached the police that it was an instance of "hit-and-run" driving. Later it was stated that the lad was suf- fering either from an attack of sleeping sickness or infantile paralysis. No definite record of the diagnosis of his condition has yet been made. Doctors have the youngster under observation and are endeavoring to get a history of his case. There is no evidence of him having suffered injuries.
 The youngster was found by Frank LaPorta of 320 Washington avenue about 6 o'clock this morn- ing. He had collapsed while crossing the street and was i'll danger of being run over by passing machines. A handful of address slips indicated that he had been delivering papers. Mir LaPorto started for the hospital with the lad, but was met on the way by the police ambulance in charge of Patrolman Jerry Hunihan. The un- conscious lad was transferred to the ambulance and the trip com pleted.
 Lieut. William Pollard and De- tective William Foley disproved on investigation the hit-and-run theory.

He said he was cafrylng the ice from the rear room to place 1t around some ice cream when the bag dropped and the ice broke into small pieces on the floor. Samunir picked up one of the pieces and wagered he could hold the ice for two minutes and if he did not, the drinks would be on him.
 There were nine in the group. Five are expected to substantiate the defendants story and four, the plaintiffs story. Attorney Michael J. Galullo appears for the plain tiff. Attorney Edward Mascolo represents the defendant.
