Magistrate Gives
Reasons For
Dismissing Case •
Reasons given by Magistrate D.
E. Holmes, for dismissing the case
of criminal negligence against Nor-
man Tyndall in a shooting incid-
ent last year, were made public
at the last sitting of court here
on Tuesday.
The magistrate's statement said
that he felt there was no evidence
showing wanton or reckless (Ilse
regard for the lives or safety of
other persons. He said that for a
charge of 'criminal negligence, the
court must be shown that the "ac-
cused was so negligent that it can
be assumed that the accused did
not care whether he injured ant'
person or not. In this case I find
that this element is entirely lack-
ing."
Magistrate Holmes also expres-
sed his thought that shotguns
should not be permissible before
daylight. He said, "A man going
out hunting with a shotgun (con-
taining 15 to 32 pellets of fairly
heavy weight), shown in the dim
light before dawn an object which.
in mind, assumes the shape of
a deer, will fire, knowing or hop-
ing that some of his pellets will
find their mark, whereas if the
hunter is equipped with a rifle he
would never 'dream of firing at a
vague shape. He must have a
sharply defined object, as he has
only the one shot with which to
bring down the deer."

roughly, going down to defeat in

"Reluctantly,” Magistrate D. E,
Holmes suspended sentence of
theft, on charges. laid by the
crown against four young airmen
from RCAF .Station Clinton,. who
appeared in Clinton pollee court
on Tuesday tifternoon.
The airmen, none of whom had
been in the airforce more than
eight months, pleaded guilty to
charges. According to Crown At-
torney H. G. Hays, they had come
into town on New Year's Day with
the intention of getting a car for
a trip, They split up, arid two of
them found the car belonging to
Elmer Trick. They drove off,
picked up the other t*o men, and
the four of them were later appree
hended in Hensel', at gunpoint by
Provincial Police.
Beecher Menzies, counsel for the
defence, urged leniency, stating
that the men -were French Canad-
ians, finding themselves away
from home for the first time on
New Year's Day and had. difficulty
in adjusting tot their environment
here.
,Haye contended that it was a
deliberate action. However the
magistrate said. that faced with
only two alternatives: committing
the boys to jail, or suspending sen-
