PRICK SAYS NO"
 TO PUTTING UMp5
 UNDER CHANDlE ER

NEW YORK, Oct. 21-IR-Pres- ident Ford Prick of the National League declared today he would be l"unalterably opposed" to placing [ the umpiring staff of the two ma- for baseball leagues under the au- thority of Commissioner A. B. Happy Chandler.
 There have been seemingly inspir- ed reports since the World Series that the baseball commissioner means to introduce such a measure at the winter meetings here in December.
 Under the purported plan, the arbiters of both leagues would be hired. fired and administered en- tirely from Chandler's office at Cincinnati.
 The boys in blue, one informed source suggested, might even be made interchangeable between the leagues working National and American League game impartially. In other words one big, happy pool of umpires.

vince their clients that they were taking risks on their behalf. Our courts ought never to be noisy clamorous, irreverent institutions I've need to be sure of that in these confusing times.
 It would be preferable that judges should not be thrown into the hell-fire of party politics. Our campaigns have grown increasingly distressing. Candidates, even fol the highest places, no longer de- vote themselves to issues, nor dc they pursue gentlemanly amenities They hurl imprecations and false hoods at each other.
 For instance, in the New York State campaign for United States Senator, a motif has been injected which must disgust Americans who love our institutions, particularly the right of the people to choose their own government at a secret election at which each person may vote as an individual owing at that moment allegiance to no man on earth or to no party but only to God and his own conscience.
 Into this campaign have been in- jected religious differences and the point has been made that John Foster Dulles is a religious bigot Whoever says that is liar. But that is not what I am discussing it is rather that such things could be, that no sense of decency comes to the rescue of those who are maligned because they would serve the United States. We have lost something in these years and if it is old fogy to expect dignity, then it were better that we revert to dignity and propriety and manli- ness. If our politicians, as our lewyers, need to be buffons to get on, our country needs protection from its own children, and the children need to be re-educated.

MISSING
 SINCE 5EpT.
 BELIEVED SAFE

ANCHORAGE Alaska, Oct. 21.- R-A report that Francis Brown field, Anchorage pilot missing since Sept. 4, walked into a lonely cabin near Tangle Lakes in the Alaska wilds sent hopes soaring today that he is safe.
 Tangle Lakes is about 25 miles west of Paxson's Lodge on the Richardson Highway.
 Brownfield was to rendezvous with hunting party on Labor Day.
 Earl Bogey and Mrs. Mae O'Don- nell walked into the Sheep Moun- tain CAA station Sept. 10. Brown fields slightly damaged plane was found at North Susitna Lake Sept. II. Pat O'Donnell, also in the par ty, walked into Talkeetna after "A days in the wilds. He had waited vainly on a river sandbar for Brownell's arrival.
 Today's report that Brown field was safe came from Amos Fleury of Copper Center. He said he heard an amateur radio report, and emphasized it was not broad cast of O'Donnell's plea to look for Brownfield, which has been heard widely
 Tt sounds so right" Mrs. O'Don- nell said. He could have walked up MacLaren River to Tangle Lakes. He couldn't have crossed any other rivers. Oh, we're pray ing it's true. If only some ham operator can get through to them to whoever sent the messages. He must be alive"
 CAA officials here said their Gull kama employees, who were contact ed by radio. said the report coulo not be confirmed immediately. Al aska Communication System and Alaska Road Commission personnel in the area have been alerted.

THESE DAYS
GEORGE E. SOKOLSKY
THE COMMUNISTS LAWYERS

Our courts have for some time
 been under barrage of criticism
 Men have been appointed to the Supreme Court of the United States who do not command the respect of the legal profession or of the peo- pie. It has been rumored that candidates for elective judicial of- flee buy their nomination either by direct transactions or by con-
 tributions to party funds. Lawyers
 have been appointed to receiver ships and other references" whose very appointments give the impress sion of impropriety, if not of cor ruption. And lawyers have been seen to behave in court as though
 they were on street corner soap box exhibiting themselves without regard to propriety or their posi- tions as officers of the court.
 The lawyers who represented the
 II convicted Communists have been held in contempt by Judge Harold Medina and have been sentenced
 to Prison terms. Their behavior in
 court has outraged every sense of , to prison terms. Their behavior in of the dignity of the court. Judge Medina's patience was obviously taxed and at enc time he collapsed under the stress of their bad con- duct. It does not matter whether they are or are not Communists, or whether they represent Commun- ists. What does matter is that they failed to realize that apart from their proper function of protecting their clients, they also must pro- tect the dignity of our courts and of our judicial process. A lawyer should be gentleman even while defending a criminal.
 These men will probably serve their prison terms and come out to sin some more. But that is not too important. What is very serious is that trial such as this could have happend; that the judge should have been forced to accept humiliation, insult, personal abuse to avoid a mistrial, or to prevent some higher court from accepting something that the judge might have said as the basis for a re- versal of the decision of the jury. The procedure in the court ought to have been revised to protect the judge and the process of law from the irresponsibility and impropriety of lawyers who fail to recognize their full duty Certainly the bar associations owe it to the good name and integrity of their pro- fession to undertake thorough study of this problem.
 In this particular case, the law yers undoubtedly were more than advocates: they acted as though they were themselves part of the very apparatus of which their clients were the servants. But other law yers have acted badly in our courts, for no reason other than to con-

HIGH OFFICIAL OF S0R0pTIMISI5
 IS HERE BRIEFLY

When Mrs. Lois Bell Sandal, in- ternationaly prominent Soroptimist, was here in July, she seized eagerly every opportunity to "get the feel' of Alaskans.
 On her present trip, she is having an experience familiSr to Alaskans during the winter season.
 Mrs. Sandal took passage yester- day from Seattle to Ketchikan.
 Mrs. Sandal arrived in Juneau
 Assured that she could get to Ketchikan today, the Seattleite en- joyed breakfast with several mem- bers of the Juneau Soroptimist Club. Mrs. Robert (Alice) Thorne, President, especially welcomed the opportunity of discussing plans for the Juneau clubs participation in the coming convention in Seattle of the American Federation of Sorop- timist Clubs.
 Mrs. Sandal is chairman of the committee planning the biennial convention, which will be attended hy delegates from Soroptimists all through the United States, Alaska, Canada and South America.
 "The convention in July said Mrs. Sandal this morning, lis be- ing held in the Northwest for the first time. We want delegates to get the western flavor right away, so the Alaska clubs have been asked to stage the opening reception. This huge affair will be Sunday evening, July ?, in the beautiful Spanish Ballroom of the Olympic Hotel
 Miss Lois Jund of the Juneau Club is chairman for participation by Soroptimist Clubs in the Terri tory.
 Alaska had three clubs today, and will have four before tomorrow, as the Ketchikan group will receive its charter from Mrs. Sandal at formal installation ceremonies tonight. Mrs. Sandal also will make the main address.
 The Ketchikan Soroptimist Club is sponsored ty the Juneau Club, with Mrs. Jessie McCrary, Miss Mildred Maynard and Miss Anita Garnick as the organizing com- mittee. Miss Maynard is chairman for the evening, and will conduct the installation ceremonies.
 Mrs. Leonard Hopkins of the An- chorage Club will make the presen- tation of the presidents pin given by the Northwestern Region. Mrs. Bertha Mckay, city clerk and trea- surer, is the first president of the Ketchikan Soroptimist Club, the 68th club in the Region.
 The Soroptimist Club in Fair banks was the first to be founded in Alaska. Its installation in Janu- ary, 1859, was a novelty. as Mrs. Sandal conducted it via broad cast from Portland, which was re- broadcast from the then-new KFAR in Fairbanks. Miss Miriam Dickey organized that club.
 Mrs. Sandal gave a public lec- ture about the United Nations in the Governors House while here last summer. She had been re- presentative to the United Nations from the American Federation of Soroptimist Clubs, of which she is past president. Mrs. Sandal IS immediate past president of the Seattle Club.
