ators from the newly created districts
has been called by Gov. Hugh Dorsey

with the opinion given him by At
torney General Clifford Walker to the
effect that it was his duty to name a
time for the selection of representa-
tives from the seven new senatorial
districts, leaving the matter of the le-
gal seating of those already elected
to the senate itself. In the letter
which Attorney General Walker pre-
scented to the governor he says: while
the electors were selecting senators to
represent the forty-four districts then
in existence, they were also voting
upon an amendment to the constitu-
ton providing for seven new senate
rial districts. When these votes were
consolidated and the governor issued
his proclamation declaring the amend
ment ratified, seven new districts were
in fact created The act submitting
this amendment also required the gov
ernor, upon the issuance of said proc
lamation, to call special elections in
each of the seven new senatorial dis
tricts so created for the election of a
senator to represent each of said new
districts. This proclamation having
been duly issued, it is clearly your
duty to call the election SO provided"

There Is. however. the thrillinEly in

For that reason. The Italian Bat
