 drawn From Docket

Two civil actions pending in sti- perior court, one for $15,000 dam ages and the other for $7,500 were withdrawn today. Terms of settle rnent were not disclosed in either case.
 David LaDue administrator of the estate of Kenneth LaDue, of Vol colt, has settled out of court the $15,000 suit agains; Allen c. Pro- vost of Waterbury. The litigation Jas based on the fatal injuries sus- tained by his son July 19, 194O, when he was involved in an acci- dent with car driven by the de- fendant.
 The boy was said to be riding on @ bicycle in Wolcott when the car allegedly struck him, causing in- juries which resulted in his death that same day. The driver was &C., cused of driving at excessive speed and while vision was defective.
 Frank Zapko of Beacon Falls has withdrawn the $7,500 action brought against the Connecticut Railway and Lighting Go. of Bridgeport and Raymond K. Mcdonnell of Water bury as the result of injuries sus- tained August 6 when he was pas- senger in a bus. The complaint stated the plaintiff was thrown to the floor of the bus when it was struck, while parked, by the car of the other defendant.
