The average innocent bystander thinks
life, with a "buzzer" like that at ones
elbow and the authority attaching to
use it, must be a complete and utter
joy
But Fielder takes no joy in his "buz-

would be almost a disgrace to any well

he uses the "buzzer' regularly, the while

The attorney generals procedure

after this fashion:

knows better than to come then. He
