1Opinion of the CourtWilson, C. J.

Plaintiff appealed from a judgment entered notwithstanding a verdict in his favor for $325.

Plaintiff drove his car northerly on an 18-foot paved highway. Defendant drove his car southerly thereon. They were in plain view of each other. It was daytime. There was a collision. The testimony is conflicting.

The motion for judgment non obstante admits the credibility of the adverse party and every inference which may fairly be drawn from such evidence. That view of the evidence most favorable to the adversary must be accepted. Manos v. St. Paul City Ry. Co. 173 Minn. 402, 217 N. W. 377.
