Bar Group Report
Urges Added Judge
For Police Court
Enlarged StoH Also
Recommended for
Probation Office

An additional judge for Police
Court and an enlarged staff for
the probation Office were recon-
mended in a report of the Police
Court Committee of the Bar As
sociation of the District made pub
lie yesterday by Francis w. Hill,
jr., the associations president. 1t
will be submitted shortly for the
consideration of the officers and di-
rectors of the organization.
There is an acute need for an
additional judge In the court" de-
clared the report, which was signed
by the committee chairman, John
J. Carmody. and his colleagues.
After citing statistics the report
says: 1T thus clearly appears that
each of the four judges disposed
of approximately 1896 cases dur
ing the calendar year of 1899, or, in
ether words, working So weeks in
year, each judge disposed of an
average of approximately 275 cases
per week, or an average of SIS per
day. Such a condition should not
be permitted to obtain in the Ma
tion's Capital. 1t results in an un-
warranted and onerous burden both
to the court and the public and
obviously discloses the need Of an
other Judge"
The committee congratulated the
Police Court jurists on the ere
markable showing" made with the
unusual number Of cases each Judge
handles.
Regarding the probation Office the
committee declared that it Is "un-
derstaffed and the personnel should
be increased" During 1899 the
chief probation officer and his six
assistants each handled some 725
cases. said the report, adding:
"While we believe that despite the
unusual amount of work allotted to
them, the chief probation officer
and his assistants have not failed
to give due consideration to each
and every case, we are definitely of
the opinion that in order to safe
guard the rights of the defendants.
many of whom are first offenders,
the personnel should be augmented
by at least one or possibly two ad-
ditional assistant probation officers"
The committee expressed its ap-
probation to Al Philip Kane, sec
ond vice president of the associa-
tion, for his assistance and pointed
out that the Police Court jurists
gave willing cooperation. Serving
with Chairman Carmody on the
committee are H. Russell Bishop,
James P. Donovan, Arthur c. Elgin,
Charles E. Paine. Norman E. Sill
and William B. Wolf.

fine galaxy of planets, which we enjoyed earlier in the year and only Venus and Mars are left for our ob- servation. Venus is growing bright CT and reaches it's greatest eastern elongation on the 17th; in May It will attain it's greeatest brilliancy for the present period. tIs stellar magnitude at present is about mi nus A." Mars is close to the fixed star Aldebaran in Tauras. As the latter has distinctly yellowish hue, planet and star look very much alike. Mars lies to the north of AL debaran. Jupiter and Saturn are too near the sun for visibility. Mercury, although it is a morning star on about the 18th, will not be far enough from the bright sun for nakeed eye observation.
 The Fixed Stars
 The eastern evening sky already contains many of the stars which form the spring and summer con- stellations but the winter groups still add to the splendor of the

heavens. With the exception of Taurus which must be observed be- fore nine o'clock, Orion and all his splendid companions are still visi- ble at map-time. This is the last month in which Orion will appear on the map and before long the en- tire aspect of the heavens will have completely changed. Almost on the meridian and about halfway up to the zenith is the beautiful blue white star Regulus, the royal star, in Leo, the Lion. Regulus marks the western end of Leo and at the east ern end lies Denebola, the second brightest star in this constellation.
 The widespread constellation of Virgo, the Virgin, follows close on the heels of Leo. This constellation represents Ceres, the goddess of the harvest in the mythology of ancient Rome. Virgin extends long way both east and west, from Spica its brightest luminary, which repre- sents an ear of grain that the god- dess holds out to the world below. The position of the sun when on the autumnal equinox is now i nthe western part of Virgo but was once close to Spica and has been in this constellation since the dawn of his- tory. The nearest bright star to the west of Spica is Gamma Virginia, an interesting double star. In the region extending from Gamma to Denebola in Leo is one of the rich est fields of nebulas in the entire sky. It is appropriately called the field of the nebula."
 Spica itself is bluish- white star of the highest temperature class and is "helium" star, as the light of this gaseous element is very prominent in its spectrum. Although it ranks as the fourteenth in the list of first-magnitude stars, it k really 8 much greater star thar many of those that precede it ir order of apparent brightness be- cause it Is so much farther away The best available data indicates its distance to be about two hundred light-years. Its luminosity is ocel eight hundred times of the sun. Il is many tines more powerful 2 radiator of light and heat thar Sirius which from the earth appear! to be more than ten times as bright

STATE

If you intend to see the deluxe double bill that is currently wowing theatergoers at Warmers State the ater you'll have to hurry as perfor- mances tomorrow evening positively concludes its engagement.
 Errol Flynn and Miriam Hopkins are co-starred in the head-liner virginia City" and if you want to see two top-notch stars in their greatest roles then be sure to see this nightly picture. Randolph Scott and Humphrey Bogart are featured in the huge cast. On the same show is ''The Farmers Daugh- ter" a swell comedy, with Martha Rave and Charlie Ruggles in the leading roles.
 Starting Wednesday the State will smash through again with another of its new season hit pictures, the top laugh hit of 1940, "Too Many Husbands" starring Jean Arthur, Fred MacMurray and Melvyn Douglas.
 The film is said to be gay, grand and glorious with the three stars in the most hilarious roles of their brilliant careers. It was adapted from an original stage success by w. Somerset Vaughan and is said to describe a material mix-up in unbelievably merry fashion.
 Miss Arthur is seen as young woman with two husbands. She is in love with both, is willing to live with either or both, but the law says she must get rid of one. Now just what would you do in this case?
 What Miss Arthur does, according to advance reports (and the ad- vance reports have been unanimous in their use of superlatives) makes the picture thoroughly entertain ing and completely different" type of comedy.
 In the cast, in addition to the star trio, are Harry Davenport, Melville Cooper and Dorothy Peterson.
 AS the second big hit the manage ment will present Warner Bros timely thriller British Intelligence 8 story of England's fearless spy hunters with Boris Karloff and Margaret Lindsay in the co-starring leads.

The first of the two eclipses scheduled to take place during the present calendar year will be ob- served on April 7th. While this is only an annular eclipse of the sun and does not have nearly the scientific interest and importance of a total solar eclipse, like the one to follow next October, the phenomenon will be visible in the United States and Canada. An annular eclipse is one in which the center of the lunar and solar disks coincide but in which the moon is too far from the earth to fully cover the bright surface of the sun. Thus ring of the brilliant photosphere of the sun is seen around the dark disk of the moon and there is altogether too much light for the study of the solar CO., roma and for the observation of the chromopshere and prominences. Of course, the latter can be studied at any time with special astronomic in- struments but the corona is still observable only at the few moments of totality The name of the present type of eclipse, annular, is from the i Latin word 'annulus" which means ring.
 The annular phase of this eclipse v'ill be visible along strip approxi- mately one hundred miles wide, the middle of which enters the United States from Mexico at Big Bend on the Rio Grande and runs eastward and Austin. The belt then runs through southern Louisiana, Ala bama, Georgia and northern Florida, passing out into the Atlantic Ocean. between the cities of San Antonio New Orleans, Pensacola, Talla- hassee, and Jacksonville also lie on the favored belt. Practically all the rest of the continent will see the phenomenon as partial eclipse with the percentage of coverage lessening with increasing distance from the path of the annulus. While the exact time of the middle of the eclipse varies in different points as i the shadow of the moon sweeps eastward, we can say that the an- nular phenomenon will be visible in Texas at about a quarter of four in the afternoon (central standard time) and in Florida at about five by eastern standard time. In New York the suns disk will be about two-thirds covered. It is interest," ing to note that the first glimpse that the earth will have of this eclipse will be from a point west of the international date line and this will be already April 9th there; the shadow then sweeps eastward into regions of the earth where 1t is still only the 7th.

BUST OF POPE XII
 TO BE UNVEILED
Forty Bishops to Witness Ceremonies At Catholic
 University Tomorrow

Washington, D. C., April 1 - A marble bust of Pope Plus XII exc cuted by Tommaso Tommasi at Pie tra Santa, Italy, will be unveiled in the Mullen Library of The Catholic University of America at Washing ton, D. C., tomorrow afternoon, in the presence of His Eminence, Den- his Cardinal Dougherty, Archbishop of Philadelphia, and more than forty Archbishops and Bishops at tending the Conservation ceremonies of the Most Rev. Joseph M. Cor rigan, Rector of the University, as Titular Bishop of Bilta.
 The gift of Giuseppe Tommasi of New York, brother of the sculptor, is in gratitude to the American Heirarchy for the benefits he has received and for the recognition &C., corded his work since he came to this country in 1925. MT Tommasi will make the formal presentation next Tuesday at the University Li- brary.
 Carrara Marble
 The bust, which will remain per- manently on exhibit at The Catho- lie University, is made of Carrara marble. It stands 2 feet high, on a 3 feet g inch pedestal of royal yei- low marble. The Pope's Coat-of- Arms on the face of the pedestal is a masterpiece of Florentine marble mosaic, held by a carved frieze in the palm motif-symbolic of peace on a Venetian gold mosaic back ground. The Italian newspaper, H. Telegrafo, described the bust as "an excellent likeness" of Plus XII. An unusual feature is its real pair of removable spectacle frames.
 Giuseppe Tommasi, the donor ot the bust, is an artist specializing in ecclesiastical work. He was born in Pietra Santa, Italy, in 1902, and is descendant of Blessed Maria Cardi- nal Tommasi, Duke of Palma, Whc died in 1713, and a nephew of Ben- edetto Tommasi, Archbishop of Si- ena, who died in 1908. His father and his grandfathers on both sides of the family were pioneers in the design, execution and export of ec- clestiastical marble art work to all parts of the world.
 When only 12 years Of age, MT Tommasi became a student at the Academy of Fine Arts in Pietra Santa, graduating at the age of 19 After serving in the Italian Army he entered his fathers studio and his work has become widely known in Europe, Africa, Asia and the United States.
 American Citizen
 Since coming to the United States in 1925, he has become an American citizen. Among his works in this country are the Shrine of Our Lady of the Miraculous Medal, Holy Name Church, New York City, ot which the Most Rev. Stephen J Donahue, Auxiliary Bishop of New York is Pastor; the interior ap- pointments of St. Peters Cathedra in Marquette, Michigan; and the Cathedral of the Incarnation ir Nashville, Tennessee. He also made a replica of the famous DonatellC Altar of Padua for Saint Casimir's Church in Baltimore.
