Dr. L. E. Prowse, anesthetist at the hospital, was with the patient and started intravenous injections and taken measures for shock sl-

ihough the patient was not in severe shock. X-ray pictures were taken.

Describes Wounds

Telling of the wounds Dr. Laid- law said there was ii. large gaping wound and the elbow Joint was open with the ends of the bones showing and the soft tissues sev- ered. He cleaned up the wound, removed several "foreign metallic bodies", and then- finally closed the wound with dressings and s cast. He presumed the metallic hodies were small shot and pro- duced ll bottle in which were sev- eral of the objects.

The hip wound was ii dark rag- ged puncture at the anterior sup- erior iliac spine back of the pelvic crest. He probed it, cut away the

rays had shown that there were foreign mctslllc bodies in the area.

Four days later when .the pa- tient's condition was still good he took the cast off the elbow and re-dressed it. Also re-dressed the hip after removing the shots. These also produced in evidence .in a bottle. At the time Biaisdell ar- ii-lved at hospital all possible pre- cautions were taken to prevent any infectloii. Among injections receiv- ed by him were streptomyecin, penicillin and the sulplias. 1 He said that all shots seen by Luse of the X-rays were removed 'imd the patient was discharged from the hospital on January 2'1. 1

There was little cross-examins- tion by defence attorney Mr. Lee- ter P. O'Donnell, and when he sat down Crown Prosecutor Mr. S. S. Hessian, Q.C., told Ml1glstrateMac- Donald that that was the case for the Crown.

Accused Gives Testimony

Mr. O'Donnell then called his only defence witness. the accused. Russell Brown said he had been married in 1951 to Mary Blaisdell. He had previously lived with his mother and father. After his mar- riage he acquired a house about

in move in his own home farm but Allan Blaisdell said he would give them one-half acre of land on which to put it. He and his wife accepted the offer and he and some friends hauled the house to the duignated area. He had made only minor changes in the house since he got, it, obtaining the mon- ey to purchase it by selling pulp- wood. .

Later his father-in-law refused to give them s. deed for the prop- erty and he said he would haul his house on the land. But he was told by his father-in-law to leave it where it was, and was refused when he wanted to buy the half acre. His house is in a wooded area. .

The witness said he earns his

living by working with nearby farmers and for himself in the woods. The general rate of pay is 33.50 or 94 per day. He had worked for Blaisdell last. fall, building from the ground up it born 16 by Z) feet. He started in October and finished in Novem- her after spending 15 days at it. In talking about his pay for the job before h started he had asked for 35 a day ut Biaisdell had said sit. After finishing his work he had twice asked for his money but got none. All he received was s at grocery order sent from iv. store.

Other Incidents

There had been other incidents and he finally told Mr. and Mrs. Blsisdell if that was the way things were to be between the familim he did not want them near his place. However, they came again and were told to stay away and they came twlcs afterwards when he was not at home. He saw tracks on his return and his wife told him who had been there.

On Sunday afternoon, January 4. he went to his father's place to visit. His wife and two children were at home. she said that she intended going out but did not say

that afternoon and his family was all out. He heard someone coming and went to the door. There was ii. horse and wagon there; in it were his wife, two children, Allan Blaisdell and his youngest daugh-

r.

He told Blaisdell to leave the placc but "he said nothing and did not even look at the door". The accused then got' it shotgun and aimed under the wagon. He want- ed to scare him on and absolutely did not intend to hit him. After firing the one shothe went into the house and put. the gun away. He did not know his father-in-law had been hit until his wife came back into the house and told him.

The gun was owned, by a rela- tive in Charlottetown, who goes to his place each year to fish and shoot. He had left the gun at Brown's.

Later that night the Police came. and got the guns from his house and he went with them to sauna and later to Georgetovi

He said there had be n frit-tioii between the two men for some

time. Cross-Examined

Cross-examined by Mr. Hessian he readily identified the gun in court as the one he had at home from which the shot was fired. In it had been 8. BB shell as he had been shooting geese. He fired the gun at. the ground and said he had been shooting for is years.

After being told of the wound- ing of Blaisdcll he had not gone to the latter's home and had render- ed no assistance. "I don't know why I should". Mr. Hessian then read from the statement the sc- cused had given the R.C.M. Police in suurls after his arrest. He con- firmed the particulars read and when questioned said he did not deny shooting Blslsdell.

Mr. O'Donnell then stated that was all the evidence the defence intended to introduce at this time and the attorneys began the cus- tomary arguments. The defence attorney quoted several previous cases where a lesser charge had been used on committal to a high- er court based on the lack of in- tent. He maintained that a shot mad at hsrd ground could scatter and spread and that I. blast, from a shotgun was less effective at 10 feet than at 30 feet where the "pattern" usually starts.

He said the area where the prin- cipals lived was poor farming country and they were poor form- ing people. A trial before the Supreme Court would be costly and the people did not have the money. He thought" the ends of Justice could be served just as well if the accused were commlthd on the laser charge contained in sec- tion 1!; of the criminal Code rs- ther than 274.

The Magistrate then read both sections and stated that undoubt- edly ths accused should be com- mltted under one or the other of the two sections. But. he said, the crown had refused consent to the lesser count.

He then committed him for trial so charged. The next sittings of the Bupremsoourt open in George- town on the second Tuesday in July. The prisoner was remanded in custody.

A large number of people were in the court on each of the two days of the hearing.

Tho first basketball team is up- holding the mark set. by the foot- ball team last fall. Although the latter had one defeat at the hands of the Acadians, thus for no de- fects have been met in the field of basketball. Saturday night the Saints did not play as well as they usually'dio but judging by the average of each player, they were far from being inactive. Their opponents, the St. John Junior Jacks. last years' Eastern Can- ada's junior champs, were I. very smart and able grou-p.and kept the Saints bsack especially in the first, quarter. but were no match for the Red and White barn- storming tactics. Jackie Rcardon. shooting below average, scored 18 points his lowest mark this year. He'wa.s followed by Pete Dunphy. Johnny Taylor and Bob Mooney with 13 each. Clarence MacDon- ald with 10. Gus Dorsis 8, Joe Mullally 5. Cy Mclsaac 3 and Earl MacKinnon 1. The local boys lost the help of Earl Macxinnon early in the game because of ii. head in- jury which will keep li.tm out of action for at least another week. This was the second game for the Saints in two nights following one of their most successful thus far. At Mt. A. the sky was the limit as they towered to the stagger- ing lieights of 104-66.

Thursday night proved one of the most successful for St. Dun- stan's "Man of Sports", when Jack Reardon chalked up his greatest number of points in 9. single game -53. In their game with the Ab- bies. Reardon accounted for more than half of the Saint.s' 94 points and more than enough to quench the combined 41 points of the Ab- bies. The Saints played without the services of Earl Macxinnon, Johnny Taylor and Cy Gus Dorsis with 17 points was run- ner-up in the scoring list follow- cd by Mullally, Dunphy, Mac- Donald, and Bob Mooney.

The second basketball team un- der Bob Mooney, defeated the Ab- bles on Tuesday night with a score 58-50. Frank Slowey led the parade with 22. followed by John Kelly with 13. Roche 7. Kane 1, Farmer 6, Shea 5 .and Lawlor 0.

At 9. recent meeting of the st. Duiistan's Students' Union. the student body voted in favor of rejoining the National Federation of Canadian University students tNFCUSl. St. Dunstsn's was form- erly a member of this organization including almost every university in Canada. but for two or three years now, took the inactive role of associate member. Gerald Steele who attended the NFGUS national conference last fall in Quebec City, briefly reviewed the objectives and work of the Federation and after 9. discussion. a motion was for- worded which President Regis Duffy put To the house to be ac- cepted almost unanimously. Ne- gotiations are now underway wit) the National Office in Ottawa ant in 3. short tlmr: st. .DllllsNll'l': will likely be a member of thi' large student organization. . . .

. Mr. Arthur Pendergsst, the genial chairman of the local Mari- time Intercollegiate Debating Lea- gue tMIDLi, reports that dates are now fixed for St. Dunstan's entry into the debating lisw. Date- flxing negotiations which were begun with Acadia before Christ- mas, have only been settled late- ly as the 17th and 20th of Feb., next Tuesday and Thursday. On Tuesday Emmett Roche and Dick Wedge will be at Acadia. On Thursday Cril Mclsasc and Clair Callaghan will debate with Mt. A. in the college auditorium. That same evening. Canada's debating champ, Allen MacDonald, will be at St. Mary's with his capable col- league, Bob Croken. Due to the unavoidable delay in arranging dates, next week will be one of great apprehension for all those interested in debating. Three de-' bates in three nights mean three decisions - decisions which could well mean another try at the Do- minion title. The boys did it last year, and Judging by the work they've done so far under the di- rection of Father Cass and Mr. O'Grady, they're still in the win- ning ranks. "The Week" wishes you the success you had last yen, boys, and surely that's the best. 0 O I
