DUPEN, superintendent of the county home, refuses to resign. He is under fire following decision of a superior court jury that he must pay Mrs. Laura Foster $2,000 damages for assault while she was working in the county hospital. County commissioners are expected to decide at a conference Monday whether or not they will discharge Dupen as a result of the jury’s verdict. Saturday they were undecided. é Commissioner William Brown i “up in the air” con- cerning Dupen. “When Mrs. Foster first made her charges I thought it was all the bunk,” he said. “I’ ve got to confer with the other commissioners now before deciding.” Chairman William Gaines could not be reached Memorial Day. Commissioner Frank Paul says he favors dismissal of Dupen if he does not sign. “Everything said against my honor and reputation was untrue,” Dupen told The Star Saturday. “I've filed a motion for a new trial.” Mrs. Foster, a middle-aged widow, charged Dupen assaulted her while she was a waitress and he the chef at the King county hospital. She asked $30,000 damages.
