Mabel Traver, Former
 Baseball Player Wins
 Judge Finn's Ruling
Side-Moral Reasoning Useless, Says Judge After Reviewing Incidents of Case

Mabel Traver, one-time famous local baseball player, is the victor in $1,000 civil suit brought against her by Louise Scarvota. Judge Ed ward J. Finn, who heard the evil dence in the case in common pleas court Monday, today ruled in favor of the defendant, declaring in his memorandum of decision that the alleged assault on which the action was based was "a tavern brawl."
 Miss Traver, now of Brooklyn, N. Y, was sued by Miss Scarvota for injuries suffered last July IT. On that date, Miss Scarvota claimed, Miss Traver kicked and beat her in an East Main street grill. According to the testimony offered Monday,

the dispute bega mover ownership of a hat. Miss Scarvota claimed Miss Traver gave her two black eyes and inflicted numerous injuries on her. Miss Traver's brother and sis ter were present at the time, the brother accompanying Miss Scar vota.
 When members of one family en- gage in a tavern brawl long after midnight" says Judge Finn, "and when a brother strikes his sister or when the sister strikes her brother and when a mother testifies against her son to the detriment of her sons reputation, it is difficult to find that there is any preponderance in favor of the plaintiff who is mixed up in the brawl"
 That she was well beaten is cer- tain," says Judge Finn. Tt is far from certain that the defendant beat her. The defendants sister claims the sole credit. Reasoning along moral lines is useless, since these people were acting more like quar- reling and fighting children than like men and women"
 Resort to the criminal, rather than civil law, says Judge Finn, may prevent 8 recurrence of hostili- ties"
 Attorney Sidney Cassel appeared for the plaintiff, Attorney Harry Spellman for the defendant.
