Policeman Takes Stand in Suit Over Fatal Crash
SANTA ANA (OCNS)—Costa Mesa Police Sgt. Roger E. Neth, testifying in an $850,000 damage suit here yesterday, said that a photographer placed a beer can in one of the pictures submitted as trial evidence.
Neth was on the stand in the huge four-way suit stemming from a tanker truck-auto crash at Superior Ave. and Coast Highway, Newport Beach, April 10, 1954. Two teen-agers were killed and another gravely injured in the smashup.
Neth also testified on examinations and investigations he made at the accident scene. He was the 16th person called to testify.
Superior Court observers predicted the case may be submitted to the jury this afternoon.
Jurors Tuesday were taken to Orange County Hospital for a view of Diane Doolittle, 15, formerly of Baiboa, who was knocked unconscious in the crash and remains in that condition with little hope for recovery.
An OCNS reporter-photographer was refused permission to cover the trial proceedings at the hospital.
The Doolittle girl was described as "a living ghost" by one of the court attaches. Her eyes remain open most of the time, but she is unable to talk, according to the testimony. She is restricted to a hospital bed.
Jurors also journeyed to the accident site before returning to the courthouse for recess at shortly after 3 p.m.
Parents of the accident victims have brought the suits against Armour Oil Co. of San Diego and its driver Charles Bennett.

NEW YORK UP)—The long fight against polio already is at the beginning of the end," Basil O'Connor, president of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis, said today.
Announcing 31 grants totaling $11,652,741 for polio research and the support of respirator centers, O'Connor said that while the battle against the disease was not yet over, "We know that polio can be defeated."
"So long as there are patients who need care," he said, "the battle against polio can and must continue.
"We have come a long way in the last year and a half. The greatest vaccine field trial in history has been completed. It showed that the vaccine developed by Dr. Jonas E. Salk, properly manufactured and tested, is safe and effective in preventing paralytic polio."
The 31 grants O'Connor announced included several new projects. One is the search for a drug to prevent or treat polio. Another is the quest for a normal human or animal cell for breeding polio virus which would eliminate the use of monkeys from the Far East.
The grants for research, in various amounts, included the California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, Calif.; University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minn.; University of California, Berkeley, Calif.; California State Department of Health, Berkeley, Calif.; University of Kansas, Lawrence, Kan.; Washington University, St. Louis, Mo., and the University of Colorado, Boulder, Colo.
