McWhorter was granted a new trial in a suit tried more than a year ago in which a Mission couple won a $5.577 judgment for water damage to their home.

Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Blackburn filed suit against Sears Roebuck Co.

and two plumbers, C. C. Harvey and Donald R. Young. They contended that a water heater bought from Sears and installed by the plumbers caused the damage.

The plaintiffs said the safety valve on the heater did not have a connecting pipe running outside the house to carry' off water. They said that while they were out of town on a visit water from the heater flooded their home, causing extensive damage Both sides asked a new trial on technical grounds.
