Gets Sixty Days
For Striking Man

Because his victim lies in local
hospital with a basal skull frac-
ture, David Wynne, 80, of Seattle
learned Thursday that intention
does not always determine the
penalty for a crime"
Judge Joseph Mallery pointed
that fact out to Wynne when the
latter pleaded guilty to disorderly
conduct, and sentenced him 70
serve 60-dsy jail term. Wynne,
it was testified, struck Nolin NJ
Barron, 80. 1917 So. X st. on
downtown street Saturday night.
Barron fell to the sidewalk, suf-
fering a skull fracture.
f. C. Simpson testified he saw
Wynne strike the blow after hear
ing Barron ask to be left alone.
Wynne said he was drunk at the
time. and that Barron called him
a "dehorn bum"
The quarrel started when Wynne
panhandled the Tacoma man, who
refused to give him any money.
Judge Mallery pointed out to
Wynne that had Barron's injury
proved fatal. he would have faced
a manslaughter charge.
In the event Barron improves
rapidly and is in good health, part
of the sentence may be suspended,
Judge Mallory stated.
