Law Student Warned To Silence

He is Mr. Michael Stace, a second year law student who recently had his hand caught in the Denhard Bakery conveyor belt.

He was reluctant to give Salient any concrete information regarding the accident. Asked why he said that he had handed the matter over to the Baking Workers' Union lawyers who had asked him not to state his own opinions—in case they were published.

Stace, employed as a baker's labourer during the University holidays, was loading bread onto the conveyor belt when the accident occurred.

Asked if the machine was adequately guarded he said, "I don't really know, it all happened so quickly. Anyway that's an opinion."

He was also reluctant to state whether his crushed right hand retarded his writing: Stace is right handed.
