Alling was on the bench and Prosecutor Joseph G. Woods pre- sented the state’s case.! Immediately after Mr. Thomas had concluded the reading of statistics which tended to show that the milk firm had offered milk for sale which would not mecet the state require- ments in severnl respects, lawyer McDonough demanded that he show wherein . he was eapahle of making a milk test. The witness told the coun- sel for the defense that he was a graduate of Brown university, having specialized in physiology and bacteri- ology for four years; that he had bheen employed in the New York state laboratories at Albany and prior to taking special training at Brown had tested milk at Woodbine, New Jersey. For six weeks he has been connected with the-local department of health in the capacity of bacteriologist. He admitted that he had tested no milk since leaving the university until the Groman and Hatfield samples were brought to him on October 25 by Dr. B. D. Radcliffe.
