Under application of principles there stated, we conclude that paragraph 7 of the complaint contains some factual allegations which withstand the defendant\u2019s motion to strike. Watkins v. Furnishing Co., 224 N.C. 674, 31 S.E. 2d 917; 65 C.J.S. Negligence, Sec. 234.\nConceding as we may that the challenged paragraph contains irrelevant and redundant matter, nevertheless it is noted that the refusal of the court to strike all three subparagraphs is challenged by a single broadside exception. Such exception does not require this Court to go through all three sub-paragraphs of paragraph 7 and separate the \u201cgood from the bad.\u201d Nance v. Telegraph Co., 177 N.C. 313, p. 315, 98 S.E. 838. Ordinarily, an exception taken to several distinct matters, some of which are clearly correct, is insufficient to present any error for review. Wheeler v. Cole, 164 N.C. 378, 80 S.E. 241. See also Harris v. Light Co., 243 N.C. 438, 90 S.E. 2d 694; Dobias v. White, 240 N.C. 680, 689, 83 S.E. 2d 785; Insulation Co. v. Davidson County, 240 N.C. 336, 81 S.E. 2d 925; Rader v. Coach Co., 225 N.C. 537, 35 S.E. 2d 609. In 3 Am. Jur., Appeal and Error, Sec. 275, it is stated: \u201c. . . where an exception covers several propositions, it is a general one, and is unavailing if any one of them is correct.\u201d\nThe judgment below is\nAffirmed.",

Appeal and Error \u00a7 22a\u2014\nAn exception to the refusal of the court to strike designated sub-paragraphs of a pleading is a broadside exception and must fail if the paragraphs challenged contain any proper factual allegations.\nOn writ of certiorari, treated as an appeal, to review order of Sink, E. /., at 27 May, 1957, Special Term of Buncombe.\nCivil action by the plaintiff to recover damages for personal injuries alleged to have been caused by negligence of the defendant in the operation and maintenance of an automatic \u201cmagic eye\u201d door in the entrance to its retail store in the city of Asheville.\nThe defendant, before answering or otherwise pleading, moved under G.S. 1-153 to strike certain portions of the complaint, including all of paragraph 7, wherein the plaintiff alleges injuries of a similar nature sustained by other persons, before and after the occurrence in suit.\nThe motion to strike paragraph 7 was allowed in respect to a portion of the preamble, but was denied as to all allegations contained in the body of the paragraph, including subparagraphs a, b, and c, in which the plaintiff alleges three similar occurrences. To the order entered by the court, the defendant excepted to so much thereof as overruled its motion to strike sub-paragraphs a, b, and c of paragraph 7 of the complaint, and petitioned for writ of certiorari under Rule 4 (a), 242 N.C. 766.\nThe petition was allowed 28 August, 1957.\nMeeJcms, Packer & Roberts for appellant.\nN.
