The child was hit late yesterday by a car driven by John Hemminger, 2109 E. 31st-st, as he left a playmate, and started across the street to the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Moorehead 1510 E. 31st-st.

Hemminger had his car under control, Budda said, so far as he could learn from a group of children, only witnesses to the accident.
