and was the lord high steward's deputy, responsible for internal law and order. Today, his duties are purely ceremonial and concerned mainly with stage managing coronations and royal funerals and with running the royal college of heralds, where armorial bearings and family trees are kept. The office, first created in the 14th century, has been held for the last 300 years or so by the Dukes of Norfolk. The office of lord great chamberlain dates back to Norman times. In those days the lord great chamberlain used to be the monarch's financial wizard, responsible for keeping the royal coffers filled.

His duties gradually fell to his deputy, the lord chamberlain in these days the man who runs the monarch's household. Today, the lord great chamberlain's job consists mainly of looking after the royal palace of Westminster the official name for the Houses of Parliament and making the arrangements when the sovereign formally opens the parliamentary session every year. In the old days, the lord great chamberlain was responsible for dressing the sovereign on the morning of his coronation, and could claim as his fees the royal bed and nightclothes. This job came to an abrupt halt in the days of Queen Anne, who was reportedly extremely annoyed when the lord great chamberlain of the day arrived in her bedroom on coronation morn and announced his intention of dressing her. Nominally, the office is hereditary, but is claimed equally by Lords Lancaster, Cholmondeley and Carrington.

To save undignified squabbles, the three families agreed some years ago to take the job in turn. For this reign, the 70-year-old Lord Cholmondeley is lord great chamberlain. The lord high chancellor is the only great officer of state still retaining his political powers. He represents law, justice is "keeper of the king's conscience" and is the monarch's chief legal advisor. His office is a political appointment carrying a 28,000 dollars a year salary, plus a palatial a-partment in the palace of Westminster.

He acts as speaker of the House of Lords and presides over the Lords when they sit as the country's highest appeal court. Present holder of the office regarded as the plum of Britain's legal profession is 72-year-old Lord Simonds, a lawyer. State's Second TV Station Is Tested GREEN BAY UP) WBAY-TV, Wisconsin's second television station, began test patterns and signals early today.

JONES LONDON UPr Just for coronation day. Queen Elizabeth II will have an official champion ready to fight anyone who challenges her right to the throne. And in theory, she will also have a lord high constable to command her army, and a lord high steward to help her run the country. In practice, of course, the trio will do nothing of the sort. It's a one night stand for them their historic, centuries-old jobs are only brought out of cold storage for coronations.

The queen's champion 26-year-old John Dymoke, a captain in the British army will carry one of the royal standards instead of fighting duels. The lord high constable Brit- JOHN DYMOKE Hypothetical Duelist ain's wartime chief of staff. Field Marshal Lord Alan Brooke will hand the queen her regalia instead of leading her troops. The lord high steward naval hero, Admiral Lord Cunningham will carry the massive St. Edward's Crown instead of acting as the queen's right hand man.

All three will arch in the glittering procession traditionally called the "grand procession" that precedes the queen up the aisle of Westminster Abbey to the high altar, where the actual crowning takes place June 2. Dymoke will be the only commoner in this aristocratic company of 22 noble lords, chosen specially by Queen Elizabeth herself for the high honor of carrying her standards and regalia the crown, orb, scepters, golden spurs and jeweled swords of state. Three other wartime heroes Field Marshals Lord Montgomery and Lord Alexander and Marshal of the Royal Air Force Lord Portal march with Alan Brooke and Cunningham in the procession. Montgomery will carry the queen's own personal standard, Portal will bear the scepter, and Alexander Britain's defense minister the golden orb. Dymoke, slim, shy and bespectacled, gets his hereditary job of queen's champion as head of the Dymoke family.

Dymokes have been royal cham pions since 1377, when Richard II hit on the brilliant idea of getting someone else to do the fighting for him. It was a signal honor in those days, when kings were touchy about who they allowed near their royal person. It's been a sinecure job no one has ever publicly contested any monarch's right to the throne on coronation day but until 120 years ago the Dymokes always dressed for the part. Clad in their best armor and mounted on their fiercest war-horse, they would clatter into Westminster Hall where coronation banquets were once held hurl down a mailed gauntlet, and challenge to personal combat anyone "of what degree soever, high or low," who disputed the king's right to "the imperial crown of this realm." But in this, as in many other traditions connected with British coronations, dignity sometimes turned into low farce. On one occasion a souvenir hunter made off with the gauntlet as soon as the champion threw it down: Another time a portly Dymoke, unused to wearing medieval armor, fell down and could not get up.

The last Dymoke to ride into Westminster Hall borrowed a circus horse trained to walk backwards out of the royal presence and was embarrassed to find himself being backed in as well as out. The lord high constable and lord high steward both figure in a list of five "great officers of state" that reads like a cast list from "The Mikado." Heading the officers is the lord high steward, followed by the lord high chancellor, the lord great chamberlain, the lord high con stable, and the earl marshal. Two more great officers never appointed now were the lord high admiral and the lord high treas urer. These great officers of state were the king's right hand men in the days when monarchs ruled as well as reigned. In two cases the constable and the steward the posts became too important and were abolished by prudent monarchs.

In two more cases the earl marshal and the great chamber lainthe posts have been whittled down to a fraction of their former importance. At one time the earl marshal LNULi.

lation that such a purge might come soon after Stalin's death. But the speed and apparent orderliness with which Malenkov emerged as the potential new strong man raised, at the least, some doubts whether the group which put him in power was in fact divided in any important way. The other two strong figures from the Stalin administration V. M. Molotov and L.

P. Beria both have key posts in the new Council of Ministers. Earlier estimates of what would happen in Russia after Stalin died had given rise, in some degree, to a propaganda line developed by the Voice of America since Stalin became ill and to much specula tion about "bloodletting" and purges. In the past the Soviets have not hesitated to use purges at home and in satellite nations to consolidate power where they wanted it. Stalin himself set the pattern in the years after Lenin's death in 1924.

One of the assumptions about what would happen proved to be wrong. State Department broad casts over the Voice of America to the Communist countries had emphasized a long period of un certainty over who would really be Stalin's successor. Malenkov's appointment as chairman of the Council of Ministers apparently answered that question weeks or months ahead of Washington's guesses. There had been considerable belief that Malenkov, as the ranking man in the Communist party machinery, would have party control while Molotov, as ranking man in the government, would for a time head the Council of Ministers. What happened instead was a complete shakeup of the government.

Not only has Malenkov taken over as council chairman, equivalent to premier, but Marshal Klementi Voroshilov has replaced N. M. Shvernik as the chief of state. Men who were in key Cabinet positions during World War II but retired several years ago to relative obscurity as deputy chairmen to Stalin have returned to the front lines of government administration in charge of specific ministries. Gloom (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) Beria retains his directorship of the secret police.

Hayden said the pattern of Communist rise to power always seems to be traced through the secret police. Rep. Taber of New York, chairman of the House Appropriations Committee and a Republican economy spokesman, cautioned against slashing the defense budget on the theory that Stalin's death has lessened the chances of war. Taber said he still thinks the military budget can be reduced "but not at the cost of adequate preparedness." Chairman Wiley (R-Wis) of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee said: "We can only wait for the results to become apparent in the policies adopted by his successors, and meanwhile remain on guard against any threat of our own security." Sen. Ferguson (R-Mich) saw in the new Soviet leadership "A continuation of the Joe Stalin conspiracy." Americans ought to quit guessing what the Russians are going to do and "proceed with our program of defense, mutual security, foreign aid and other foreign policies," Sen.

Humphrey (D-Minn) said. Funeral Services Held For Former Resident Funeral services for a former Marshfield man, Michael Lecher, 58, who was fatally injured when struck by a car Feb. 25, were held in Milwaukee Monday. Local residents attending the rites were his sisters, Mrs. Leone Blackwood and Mrs.

Daisy Hahn, and a cousin, Mrs. Nick Wiltgen, all of route 4. Mr. Lecher, who grew to manhood here, was a mason by trade. He left Marshfield 30 years ago to make his home in Tripoli.

Three years later he moved to Milwaukee. Survivors include his wife and nine children, all of Milwaukee; two other sisters, Mrs. Margaret Koepke, Neillsville, and Mrs. Mathilda Bohn, Milwaukee; and two brothers. Harry, City Point, and Nick, Wisconsin Rapids.

Khruschev, Bulganin, Kag- anovich, Mikoyan, Saburov and M. G. Perukhin, chief of the chemical industry. The old Presidium elected at the big Communist Party Congress last October included 25 members. The Communist party newspaper Pravda said in an editorial the changes were "directed toward preventing any kind of interrup tion in leading activities of state and party organs." To aid the 53-year-old Bulganin at the Armed Forces Ministry, the government named Marshal Georgi Zhukov, Russia's first com mander in occupied Germany, as one of two deputies.

The other subordinate post went to Vasilevsky, the former minister. In his first order of the day, Bulganin pledged himself to strengthen the Red Army's fighting might. He declared the Army will keep "vigilant guard over the USSR state's interests." The Foreign Ministry also promised to "struggle for further strengthening the international au thority of the peace-loving Soviet state." The statement, issued as Molotov took over, said Soviet diplomats will aim at "consolidating and developing fraternal friend ship" with other Communist nations, "developing international collaboration and business like relations with all countries" and furthering "peace throughout the world."

Farmer Given Probation on Cruelty Count WISCONSIN RAPIDS A North Wood County farmer charged with cruelty to animals, after several head of livestock were found dead in his barn, was given a year's probation Friday in County Court. Judge Byron B. Conway had withheld sentencing for Roger Stoflet, 30, route 1, Auburndale, who had previously pleaded guilty to the charge.

He placed Stoflet on probation with the condition that he pay costs of $25. Stoflet was arrested Feb. 17, after county authorities discovered seven head of cattle and a pig dead in his barn. The farmer admitted to Robert Papke, county humane officer, that the dead animals had been in the barn for several weeks. Another 38 head of cattle were still alive in the badly run-down barn and some were in poor condition.

Judge Conway, commenting on his decision in the case, said that there had been considerable illness in the Stoflet family and that Stoflet himself had been ill with the flu and unable to care for the stock. He added that reports showed the animals had died of pneumonia and not starvation. Several Town of Auburndale officials spoke in Stof-let's behalf. "The boy has a good record and is well thought of in his community," Judge Conway said. "His mistake was in not calling in help when he needed it."
