Opinion

HUGHES, Justice.

Rayford Cooper, appellant, sued the City of New Braunfels for damages for injuries sustained by him while swimming in the municipal pool in Landa Park within the corporate limits of New Braunfels.

This case was tried to a jury which returned a verdict unfavorable to appellant and the court, in accordance therewith, rendered judgment that he take nothing by ■his suit.

Appellant has presented several points of error upon which he relies for a reversal but the view which we take of the case is that, as a matter of law, he was guilty of contributory negligence and cannot recover. This conclusion renders all trial errors immaterial and dispenses with any necessity for us to consider them.

We insert below a photograph showing the location of the accident which occurred April 25, 1950.
