LONDON, March Fixing Ed wards head has been carefully measured as one of the first steps in preparations for coronation cere- monies to be held next year, pos sibly in June.
 The head measurements were talk en to a small factory where the court jewellers will adjust the royal crown to fit.
 This is but one item in the task of getting ready for the event. An- other is that the court of claims" must meet to allot coronation duties and hear disputes on privilege.
 Claims will be made for the task of tasting the Kings wine to see that it isn't poisoned; for the right to challenge to mortal combat any one who declares the King is not the rightful monarch, for the right to provide a glove for the Kings right hand; for the title of master  of the silver scullery.s
 Public interest in the ceremony has already begun to manifest it. self. Reservations for seats along the supposed route of the process sion are being made, more than year in advance, with money be- ing paid down in some instances
 Westminster Hospital, which has capitalized on three past coronation ceremonies, is to erect a grand stand seating more than 2,000 per sons.
 By selling seats at Queen Vic toria's coronation the hospital gain ed S2O,0O0 The crowning of King Edward VII placed $35, 900 in the hospitals treasury and $65 900 was netted in 1911 when King George was formally invested with the au- thority of the throne.

On grounds that they had se- cured employment elsewhere or for other reasons the names of the fol- l-Wing were ordered stricken from the prcceedlings Chris Henning Alex Hodoff, Simon Graner, War ren Beavert, Frank Agoff, Gust Ze- treff, Charles Lesher and Carl Blu. koff.
 L. H. Metzgar, General Super intendent of the company, was in- terrogated today by Mir Eagen, government attorney. relative to the general outline of the company, the number of employees and other foundation matters. And just before noon recess, he presented list of names to the Superintendent, de- manding to know if there were any on the list whom MT Metzgar would not re-hire. MT. Croson immed- lately objected, and after the hear ing re-convened this afternon his objection was sustained, the Trial Examiner holding such a question was premature until such time as other matters had been brought up.
 MT Croson conUeno-1 tfis.c until it was shown that the men or any of them had actually applied for employment it woDld be impossible to show they had or had not been discriminated against in giving em- ployment
 Asked To Name Men
 It was brought out during the
The Daily Alaska empire., 1936-03-12

.eariny that the company publish
 d an advertisement inviting all nen to return and make applica- lcn Tor employment. Effort was made by MT. Eagen to pin the Su- 5srintendent down to whom he had n mind after he had replied to a question that at one stage of the negotiation he had reserved the right not to hire from 20 to 40 men. Asked who these were, MT. Metzgar explained he had no one particular m mind, that no list was made LID at the time, and his reservation had 9een made in connection with cer- an negotiations that had been go- .ng on at that time.
 Asked by the Examiner Hone if any committee or group from the strikers had approached him on re- employment, the Superintendent re- piled that they had. No further questioning was made along this line.
 The court room was filled to ca pacity all day With many standing cut in the corridor unable to get inside. Indications were today that if the history of each mans application is gone into, the hear ing may run for weeks.
 Examiner Hope said he was en- dSaVoring to speed the procedure as much as possible, but without overlooking any of the facts in the case. He set the hearing to start at 3 o'clock in the morning, and the afternoon adjournment hour has been set at 5 o'clock with an hour and a half for lunch.
