Judge rules for Roddis Lumber in Klun infant case
Judge O Neil dismissed the personal injury suit brought by Joseph Klun, infant, by guardian Pauls Kion against Roddis Lumber and Veneer Co.

Klun sought 10000 for finger loss and hand injury from a tipping machine, but the judge found the boy old enough to understand the risks and that Roddis was not responsible. Attorneys plan to seek Supreme Court review as term ends. Grand Rapids Daily Reporter.
