CARMODY, Justice, and SPIESS, Chief Judge, Court of Appeals (dissenting)- The majority decides there was sufficient evidence presented by the plaintiff to raise a jury question. We cannot agree. In our view, there is nothing in the record which would support a finding of negligence or any inference of negligence. The direction of the verdict by the trial judge was proper and that action should be affirmed as was done in the factually similar case of Daugherty v. Montgomery Ward, 102 Ariz. 267, 428 P.2d 419 (1967). The majority having determined otherwise, we respectfully dissent.
