lawyers TO say nothing of laymen. II
8 nothing unusual for County Attor-
tiey NJ. X. Hall or Assistant County
attorney Bascom Cox to answer a
telephone call with a long winded ex-
F~lanation of when the 103rd district
eourt convenes and show it gets that
way" Even the county officials are
stopped on the streets and asked puz-
zIlng questions arising from court
settings. Verbal explanations sound
like the riddle Of brothers and sis
ters / have none. but that bozo's
father was my fathers son."
The inquirer usually mods his head
with a vacant look on his face and
then hopefully asks IL he will be
notified when to appear.
Yeah, / guess So the office holder
will remark.

had enough, and accordingly prepared
