specially concurring.
I concur, although I think that a verdict for special damages without an award of general damages should be acceptable for the reasons stated in my dissent in Flansberg v. Paulson, 239 Or 610, 618, 399 P2d 356 (1965). Saum v. Bonar, 258 Or 532, 484 P2d 294 (1971), went part way in recognizing the validity of a special verdict without an award of general damages. I think it is time to go the full way and thus avoid the unnecessary litigation resulting from recurring attacks on special damages.
