Opinion:
Order affirmed, with costs, on the memorandum at the Appellate Division, with the added observation that the record reveals that the failure to complete the examination before trial of the defendant Hirsch appears to be attributable in the main to the harassing, abusive and vulgar tactics employed by counsel for plaintiff.
