State Patrolman Ed Goodins faced a puzzling case after an accident on Market Street in the San Palento River bottoms. Johnny Lee Baker, a Bayshore Bus Lines porter, was struck from behind and knocked about 100 yards. A station attendant recalled a damaged car leaving the scene. Lindell Miley of Houston, 23, claimed no memory of the event and admitted the wrecked car at the station belonged to him. Miley somehow evaded identification, and Goodins finally issued Miley a ticket for failure to pass on the left, noting the other car’s damage as reported.
