JAMES, C.J.
This is an appeal from an order granting a new trial limited to the issue of damages.
Fifteen-year-old Robert Benjamin was injured when struck by a surveyor's pole thrown by 15-year-old Tim Randell. The pole, 1 inch in diameter and 7 1/2 feet long, with a metal tip on one end, was found by one of four boys who were walking home from school together. Their route was along a 1-lane gravel road paralleling the shore of Puget Sound near Blaine.
