## Opinion text

Schwellenbach, C.J.
(concurring in the result) — I am in sympathy with the views expressed in Judge Finley’s dissent, but feel that the repeated decisions of this court interpreting the host-guest statute preclude a result other than that arrived at by the majority.
If the injustices enumerated by Judge Finley are to be relieved, it will require legislative action.
December 18, 1951. Petition for rehearing denied.
