Ignatius Les- ter today filed a motion to dis- miss the suit of $50,000 that Mrs. Margaret Shaw brought jointly against the City and the Florida Greyhound Lines. He based his plea on the grounds that the City was “Mis- joined” in the suit, since “there was neither concerted action nor concurrence of alleged negli- gence on the part of the City and the Greyhound corporation. He further asks that the action be dismissed because the com- plaint fails to state a claim against the City upon which re- lief can be granted. ‘The City, Lester's plea states, requires the Plaintiff, Mrs. Shaw, to amend her, complaint in order that the City may be advised as to what time of the day the al- leged accident occurred. Further, Mrs. Shaw must iden- tify more specifically on which portion of the sidewalk it is al- leged that a dangerous hole was allowed to remain open and un- guarded and to identify more specifically the size, of said hole. Finally she must amend her complaint to allege specific ulti- mate facts which show negligence on the part of the City, causing the alleged.injury so,that a def- inite issue may be presented for Basekall Standings By The” Associated Press in the West Indies.

By far the largest quantity goes toward canning the well- known “Sea-Ket Turtle Soup.” This is shipped North to the best res- taurants and hotels as well as be- ing sold on the open market.
