year ago but as no one was appointed

year ago but as no one was appointed to act in his place he has continued to act in that capacity. Henry Dem ing has been mentioned as possible candidate for the position but he de- nies that he has taken any steps to- ward securing the place. Another candidate many consider would make a good prosecutor is Richard Mur- ray. MT. Murray's name has been well received and popular opinion would indicate that he was strongly favored for the position. He has had some experience iE law work which" is another point in his favor. Judge Griswold, with whom the appointment of prosecutor rests Is expected to soon select his man.
