Suit Dismissed Against Dr. Peck Over Park Injury
Miss Carrie Kraus sued Dr. A L Peck of Arnold's Park for 22500 in Sioux City but the case was dismissed by Federal Judge George C Scott. The dispute traced to a 1917 toboggan ride at Arnold's Park where Kraus, an Omaha teacher, suffered a three part arm fracture after hitting slide posts. The judge ruled the suit fails since Kraus did not pay the usual fee and used the slide without the owner's knowledge. In other news Dr M B French warned Iowans of rabies after Mount Ayr cases.
