## Opinion text

BAZELON, Circuit Judge
(dissenting separately).
I agree with Judge Edgerton’s analysis of the testimony. And having in mind that we must view the record most favorably to plaintiff, I think it does not provide a provident basis for directing a verdict in favor of the defendant at the close of plaintiff’s case. But this does not foreclose the possibility that such a basis may appear after defendant puts in his case. Cf. Loketch v. Capital Transit Co., 1957, 101 U.S.App.D.C. 287 , 289, 248 F.2d 609, 611 , citing Peigh v. Baltimore & O. R. Co., 1953, 92 U.S.App.D.C. 198, 202 , 204 F.2d 391, 396 , 44 A.L.R.2d 671 .
