HEADLINE PERSONALITY
Coach Jones Lifted
To Law and to Bench
BY DANA BULLEN
Star Staff Writer

A one-time college football
coach who got his first job
through Notre Danes Knute
Rockne is the newest judge of
U. s. District Court for the
District of Columbia.
Confirmed last week by the
Senate was William Blakely
Jones, SIS, a partner in the
Washington law firm of Ham
ilton g. Hamilton. He was NOM
mated by President Kennedy
on March 10.
Judge Jones - in depression
1881 took the job that Rockne
landed him at tiny Carroll
College at Helena, Mont, on
one condition: That he could
practice law on the side.
81 wouldn't have gone other
wise" said the judge, who re-
called that since his boyhood
in a small Iowa town he had
always wanted to be an at
torney. Football just helped him
get there.
Coaching freshman teams for
Rockne at Notre Dame helped
Judge Jones through the last
two years of law school. Ear
lier, he played second string as
a guard. Nothing remarkable
he said.
Met Mansfield
Judge Jones, armed with an
ABB. in philosophy and his
LIB, left coaching after two
years at Carroll for a full-time
legal practice. He also became
active in State Democratic pol
itics.
The judge was president of
Montana's Young Democrats
during the 1886 Roosevelt cam
paign and came to know Sem
ator Mansfield, Democrat of
Montana, then a history pro-
fessor at the State university.
In 1887, after six years in
Helena and a stint as a special
assistant attorney general for
the State of Montana, Judge
Jones came to Washington as
an attorney with the Justice De-
partment's lands division.
He became chief counsel of
the tire rationing section of the
Office of Price Administration
in l943. Later. he moved to the
State Department, where he
worked on wartime British
American patent exchanges.
Firms Trial Man
In 1916, Judge Jones left Gov
ernment service to join Ham,
ilton and Hamilton. where he
was made a partner within six
months and has been the firms
principal trial man" for close
to 16 years.
He was one of three candi-
dates Endorsed for a District
Court vacancy last June by the
District Bar Association. He was
backed by Senator Mansfield,
now the Senate's Majority
Leader. but lacked local indorse-
ment by either political party.
Judge Jones has served for
IL years on the American Bar
Associations Committee on
Professional Ethics and has
worked on bar committees to
modernize Federal agency ad-
ministrative procedures.
1t is his extensive trial ex-
perience mostly In civil cases
that especially equipS Judge
Jones for his new post. The
ABA has indicated it considers
such experience highly desir-
able for judges.
In court, associates have
rated Judge Jones as a for
midable, extremely well-pre-
pared" advocate. II have never
seen him surprised in the
courtroom" said one former
bar colleague recently.

The board also discussed
land valuation for another

area containing some 10000
dwelling units in apartments
and town houses. The area is
roughly bounded by the South

ANNAPOLIS, Sept. 81 (AP).
David Hume announced to-
day that he is resigning from
the Board of Natural Resources
as a result Of recent agree

The Redevelopment Land
Agency is preparing to turn
over the development Of Len
fant Plaza and a garage under

New York real estate promoter
This was disclosed yesterday
by Executive Phil A Doyle after
an executive ession of the
agency's board. The garage
will be somewhat smaller than
the 2400-car structure origi-
nally planned, but the Plaza
will probably conform to origi-
nal plans, he said.
Originally, Mr.. Zeckendorf
was only to construct four
buildings surrounding the pla-
"a in Southwest Washington.
The plaza and garage were to
be built under direct public
control.
The building Of the garage
publicly hinged on legislation
authorizing the Districts Mo-
tor Vehicle Parking Agency to
own such a structure. Under
an appropriations rider, the
agency is banned from acquir-
ing any additional parking
garages.
