from ellison wash several months ago. He
is the oldest man on the Council. Ee
feels that the people Of his district
elected him because they knew him. They
know the way he works for himself and
takes care Of his family and his hone.

feels that this is the kind of person
who should be elected to the Tribal CoMl-
Gil.
Dick Boni promises he will do his
best as a Council member to help his
people live on this reservation. He feels
he Will be able TO do this because he

WILLIS IT'LL
Tillig Titla, Bylas Councilman,
points out the Importance Of recreation
at Bylas. He emphasizes that it covers
a Lot Of activities and is for all ages,
young and old.
The Recreation Committee started
off with some money given it by the
Tribal Council but it is longer Deepen
dent on the Council. All the money it
has, it makes for itself by giving dances
and movies, by selling soda pop, and from
the ju1e box in the recreation hall. This
money should be spent on all ages.
The basketball season is just start
ing. tournament, called the Holiday
Tournament, has already been set up for
the Christmas holidays. About twelve
teams have been invited to participate.
There are two teams at Bylas: the Nobi1s
and the Coyotes. Both Of them still
need managers. They Will elect their own
managers and captains, and they Will make
their own Basketball schedules.
Every time the Recreation Committee
sponso ors a game at the Fort Thomas gym,
it has to spend more money than it takes
r.in Willis Titla feels the basketball
teams should assume more responsibilities
than they have in the past, so that the
Recreation Comitte viii not 60 broke
and Will h ave money available for other
age groups. The Recreation Committee
furnishes the equipment for the basketball
teams, but the teams should assume the re-
sponsibility for cleaning up the gym after
games, and for most Of their expenses,
such as transportation and food. The

HEADLINE PERSONALITIES
Court Choices Versed in Problems

A man who has worked be-
hind the scenes in the Districts
Juvenile Court for more than
three years has been selected
for the courts top job.
Since 1859 Washington at
torney Morris Miller has served
on the courts Citizens Advisory
Committee. He was the COM
mittee's chairman for two years
and led its fight for two addi-
tional judges to help Judge
Orm w. Ketcham who had been
struggling with a growing court
backlog.
Now he is slated to become
one of the two new judges and
to assume the chief judgeShip
in Juvenile Court.
Mr.. Miller, medium sized and
bookiSh looking. says his inte-
rest in children'S problems
started 90 years ago when he
married the former Sara Levy
in st. Louis, Mo.
Marrying a child psycholo-
gist would normally orient one
into children's behavorial and
education problems" he said.
The interest was kept up
through his four children, as
each of them grew up in the
Districts school system.
He took more than a routine
interest in their schools af-
fairs and actively served in
Home and School Associations
of the Lafayette Elementary
School, Alice Deal Junior High
and Woodrow Wilson Senior
High. He was president of the
board of the Green Acres
School in Bethesda, Md, 10
years ago when his eldest son,
Charles. was a student.
Former Neighbors
Mr.. Miller has kept up on
some Of the problems concern
ing the city's problem children
through his friendship with
Judge Ketcham.
For five years, before he be-
came Juvenile Court judge, Mr..
Ketcham lived next door across
a white picket fence from the
Miller's residence at 5706 Broad
: Branch road NV.
The friendship continued
when the Ketcham family
moved away. The two families
see each other socially at least
twice monthly when the judges
wife, Ann, and Mr.. Miller, who
each play the recorder, get to-
gether for music sessions.
Mr.. Miller for four years has
also served on the Bar ASSo-
cations Committee on Juvenile
Court and Juvenile Problems.
Born in Sheffield, Ala, Mr..
Miller is the son of a dry goods
merchant. Before he was old
enough to remember his birth
place. the Miller family moved
to st. Louis. Mo.
Mr.. Miller went through
schools there and was grad
uated from Washington Uni
versity with law degree. He
moved East to go to New York
University, where he earned a
bachelors degree in education
and a masters in government.
Mr.. Miller took his first job
as a statistician for a utility
holding company while attend
ing NYU. He also won a fell

Dull Michigan Primary
Provides Few Contests

LANSING, Mich, Aug. A
(AP).-Michigan voters choose
nominees for 10 congressional
seats. the Governors chair and
the State legislature Tuesday
in a primary election that once
was partially Cancelled.
For a time last month, Dem
ocrats had visions of loosening
the Republican 2-to-l grip on
State Senate seats.
The State Supreme Court had
called off the primary for the
Senate and ordered immediate
Mapportionment on a popula-
ton basis. Any such rediStrict-
ing would have benefited
heavily populated city areas
where Democratic strength is
concentrated.
But nine days after the
court ruling, United States Su-
preme Court Justice Potter
Stewart issued stay Of execu-
ton and restored the Senate
race to the ballot, pending an
appeal.
The Michigan court had hello
that the Senate was improperly
apportioned because a popula-
ton disparity of up to 12-to-1
between districts violated the
equal protection OF the laws
guarantee of the United State;
Constitution.
At-Large Vote
If reapportionment were moi
carried out, the court said, Sen
ate seats would be filled
through a Statewide at-large
election.

A modest advertising cam

increase the circulation of its
monthly magazine USSR will
meet no objection from the
United States Government,
American officials said today.
Ads containing coupons for
subscribing to USSR, q slick
paper publication introducing

ence, art and other aspects of
Soviet society. appeared in
Washington papers yesterday.
The Soviet Union limits cir
culation Of the United States
magazine, America, In Russia
to the number of copies of
USSR that can be sold in this
country. Therefore, the United
States looks upon increases in
circulation of USSR here as an
opportunity to increase the cir
culation Of America.
The circulation of Amerika
has risen from $4,000 last jan
uary, when the latest two-year
cultural exchange agreement
began, to $4,000 this month.
The Soviet Union circulated
$4,000 copies Of its magazine
in this country last month and
apparently now is seeking to
raise this figure to 72,000.
