F. Cook com- mitted Grant B. Webster, RR 1, Varna, for trial at the next competent sittings, of a judge with jury as the accused bad elected at a previous appear- ance. Webster was charged with dangerous driving in connec- tion with a traffic accident on March 25 on Highway No. 8 just west of Mitchell which took the life of Herbert Stev- enson of Toronto. Magistrate Cook heard five witnesses testify at the prelim- inary hearing before deciding that there was sufficient evi- dence to commit the accused for trial. In prosecuting the case, act- ing crown attorney W. G. Cochrane called Scott Powell, RR 2, Seaforth, as his first wit- ness. Foggy Conditions During the examination, Powell testified that he was driving east on Highway 8 on the morning of the accident. He described the conditions as foggy, and although it was day- light at the time, he had his headlights on. Mr. Powell stated that he was traveling between -40 and 45 miles per hour when he ob- served a car come up behind him some distance from where the accident occurred. The car made two attempts to pass him, stated •Mr. Powell, but Varna Driver Committed for Trial On Charge of Dangerous Driving When it was even with his car, he saw the' front end go down before hearing a crash. • Lights On At the time of the crash, he estimated the visibility to be about 200 feet and stated that the on-coming car had its head- lights an.

They will make their home on Princess Street, Clinton. The bride will be a meinber of the teaching staff at Clin- ton Public School, The groom and two companions then phon- ed the police and proceeded to stop cars coming towards the accident. In cross-examination by Mr. Webster's lawyer, Mayer Lern- er, London, Mr. Powell said the car had been following him for about one mile at a distance up to 17 to 19 feet. He added. that the density of the fog varied at times. A passenger in the Powell vehicle, Jim Strong, RR 2, Sea- forth, stated that traffic on the morning in question was light and that the fog at the time of the collision was fairly thick. Mr. Strong said he did not see the eastbound car until it was about 75 feet ahead. About 100 Feet Junior Storey, Seaforth, told the court that he ,was driving a milk truck along 'Highway 8 on that particular morning when he was flagged down by Strong and Powell. He esti- mated the vision at the scene of the accident at about 100 feet. Const. Kenneth Armstrong of the Sebringville OPP was also called to the stand and he identified eight photographs that he took at the scene of the accident. Const. Glen Mueller of the Sebringville OPP, who investi- gated the accident, told the court that he measured skid marks for 48 feet from the .west-bound car and 68 feet from the east-bound car. He added that the pavement was wet and would be slippery if brakes were applied hard. The officer said that the skid marks from the west-bound car were located 18 inches north of the broken centre white line while the skid marks from the Webster vehicle showed the car skidded from the west-bound lane to a spot a short distance over the white line. Const. Mueller stated under cross-examination that there was no fog in Sebringville when he received the call but that he ran into' it around Mitchell, operates Beattie Furniture and works with his father in the Beattie Funeral Home business.
