        "text": "OPINION\nSUTIN, Judge.\nThis is a \u201cslip and fall,\u201d \u201cmother and daughter\u201d social guest case which occurred in defendants\u2019 home. Plaintiff,'Mrs. Till, the mother of defendant Bobbie Gray, slipped and fell on a waxed floor and injured herself. The trial court granted defendants summary judgment. Plaintiffs appeal.\nWe reverse.\nThe following facts appear from the record:\nMrs. Till, 54 years of age, arrived at her daughter\u2019s home with her dog the night before the accident. The following moriiing, March 18, 1969, mother and daughter were chatting back and forth between two bedrooms. The mother was dressing. Suddenly, with a yell of surprise to the mother, the daughter shouted: \u201cMother, hurry and get this damn dog, she is going to wet on my carpet.\u201d The mother, with one sock on and one sock off, hurried across the hall to the daughter\u2019s \u2022 bedroom1. She reached down, scooped up the dog in her left arm and ran out of her daughter\u2019s bedroom, turned left in the hall, and when she did, her left foot with the sock on hit the waxed floor. Her feet went straight up and she fell down. She usually watched herself while walking on the floors, but when her daughter hollered \u201cHurry/,\u2019 she just hurried and jumped and ran. . This caused her to give no thought to the floor, nor to the sock on her left foot. The floor had just been waxed the day before, and the daughter believed that if she had pot then waxed, the accident may not have, happened. She kept the floors too slick and did not warn her mother. However, the daughter had kept her floors highly waxed, slick as glass, for the preceding eleven years, and the mother knew this.\nThe rule applicable to a social guest is stated in Jellison v. Gleason, 77 N.M. 445, 423 P.2d 876 (1967). The \u201churry\u201d situation of this case was not present in Jellison, so there are factual issues concerning the adequacy of the disclosure of a dangerous condition and whether that condition was apparent. Thus, there are issues to be decided by the trier of fact concerning negligence and contributory negligence. There being material issues of fact, summary judgment was improper.\nSince the case must be remanded for trial, the assumption of risk defense will be governed by Williamson v. Smith, 83 N. M. 336, 491 P.2d 1147, decided December 13, 1971.\nReversed.\nIt is so ordered.\nWOOD, C. J., and HENDLEY, J., concur.",
