Spokane, Wash, July 14-What to dr with women who will be called to serve as jurors with men when the Spokane county superior court convenes next Sep tcrlber, is one of the vexing problems confronting the five members of the bench, headed by Judge Henry l.. Ken nan. The various women's clubs of the city have given it out that their mem . bers ar ready and willing to do jury duty.
 The Judges hope that a modern Solo, mon or Portia w.4. come forward to un- ravel the tangles presented by these pos sible situations:
 If twelve women are selected to try a case and six disagree from the other six.
 If four women decide they are right in a civil action and six men jurors hold opposite views.
 If a jury disagrees and stays out all night settling some momentous question.
 If mixed jury of men and women are kept together on felony case until All are agreed upon verdict.
