"He was one of the greatest men I have ever known and I feel his loss very deeply," the Arizona Republican said in Washington. Goldwater said Miller was "a hell of a gin rummy player and a good poker player. He was the kind of a man other men like to be with." Miller died at 3:45 a.m. at Millard Fillmore Hospital where he had been admitted June 5 for diagnostic tests.

Hospital spokesman Bob Pope said Miller was in fair condition when admitted, but his condition worsened after he suffered a stroke last weekend. Miller served seven straight terms as a congressman and was the Republican national chairman for three years before Goldwater selected him as his running mate in 1964. Governors see flood damage YUMA, Ariz. (AP) The governors of Arizona and a Mexican state on Friday surveyed villages, vacation homes and businesses damaged or threatened by deliberate Colorado River flooding that federal officials blamed on botched weather calculations. Emergency releases from three dams continued at more than double force, and people in Yuma and Mexico's Baja California braced for floodwaters raging south through three Western states and across the U.S.

-Mexican border. The flood claimed its first victim Thursday in San Luis Rio Colorado, a town in the Mexican state of Sonora about 20 miles southeast of Yuma. Local Police Chief Enrique Vazquez said Ramon Figueroa, 45, drowned in the swollen river. The National Weather Service said Yuma and low-lying Mexican farmland to the south could expect a 5- or 6-foot rise by next Wednesday. Baja Gov.

Roberto de la Madrid, who met Friday with Arizona Gov. Bruce Babbitt, worried that evacuations from villages in his Mexican state could be difficult. "We don't have any high places to go to in case there were a flood," he said. "There is such high population in some of these towns that we would have trouble evacuating these people." Part-time sentence protested DENVER (AP) More than 150 women, demonstrating against a two-year, nighttime-only sentence for a man who murdered his wife, said Friday that the judge's ruling reinforces the idea "that women are property." At a rally sponsored by the Colorado chapter of the National Organization for Women, speakers chided the judge and cheered their support when District Attorney Norm Early said he would seek a stiffer penalty. The protest was prompted by the sentencing Wednesday of Clarence Burns, 47 to a two-year term in the Denver County Jail.

He pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in the Aug. 15 death of his wife Patti, who was shot five times in the face. The sentence permits Burns to serve his jail time at night only, while continuing to work as a meatcutter during the day.

She has been named to such distinguished publications as "Who's Who Among Women Lawyers" (1939), "Who's Who in the East" (1941), "Who's Who of American Women" (1959) and "Who's Who in American Law" (1981-83). Perhaps the best way to summarize Rebecca Silverman can be found in her own writings: "Throughout our entire years of practice, we were always mindful of the highest ethics required by our profession, and we never veered from them.

Ethics was always our first priority I have a better feeling of my own worth as a lawyer, because I had done right, than any amount of money I could have received for my services. "I recall my father telling us girls that until we were 16 years old, we enjoyed the reputation we got through him but that after 16, it was up to us to make a reputation for ourselves. And it better be a good one." CEMENT URNS AND BIRD BATHS From Page 1. tion, one of whom was Mrs. Silverman.

She practiced law in Albany for one year after graduation and rented a State Street office for $15 per month. In 1930, Mr. Silverman, who was practicing law in his native Glens Falls, came to Albany with a diamond for her. "I told him to take it back," Mrs. Silverman recounted, "get the money he spent on it and open up his own office." And he did just that, renting an office on the fourth floor in the Colvin Building in downtown Glens Falls.

The then-Miss Axelrod came up from Albany and the long partnership, both in marriage and business, was started. Mrs. Silverman said several Warren County offices were located in the same building during those years. They included County, Family and Supreme Courts and the district attorney's office. J.

Clarence Herlihy, who eventually became presiding justice of the Appellate Division, Third Department, began his practice in the da Pottery Plostir Pots Jordinierv She said while each generation had different problems to deal with, "We're now running into the same problems," she said. "We now have to think in terms of taxes no matter what the issue is. We have to know an awful lot about tax law today." There are "too many laws" today, too, Mrs. Silverman said. "No sooner do you learn them, then they're changing them again.

This prolongs the time you have to devote to your client, and you have to keep up constantly on many things." Her reason for retirement is simple: "The mind keeps working but the body gets tired," she said. "I'd rather face it and walk out than be carried out. It has been challenging, interesting and very rewarding to give a good service to the people in the community. My clients always told me how pleased they were. My husband and I never looked at the dollar sign." Mrs.

Silverman received a juris doctorate degree from Union College in 1968. She has two daughters, Gloria Crabbe, also a lawyer, and Lorraine Abrash, a research chemist who teaches in college. Both live in California. She also has three grandchildren. Mrs.

Silverman is or has been a member of numerous religious, civic and governmental organizations. She is serving her 16th year on the Glens Falls Zoning same building at the time, she recalled. After 17 years there, the Silvermans moved their office to 222 Glen remained there for 15 years and then spent another 15 years in the Glen Street building that would later become the headquarters for The Post-Star and Glens Falls Times. Two years ago, Mrs. Silverman moved her office to Pearl Street.

In December 1970, Mrs. Silverman's husband died, bringing to a close their 40-year partnerhsip. Mrs. Silverman said she maintained a general practice of law rather than specializing because "I don't like to confine myself to one field. It is more challenging, more interesting this way." Her work included business contracts, estates and tax work.

Mrs. Silverman said even though she will close her office Thursday, she will finish some income tax work for her clients that should take about a year. She has undertaken "a few" criminal cases in the past, but those kinds of cases "never appealed" to her. "I did them as favors to my clients," she noted. Mrs.

Silverman compared the changes in the legal profession over her 55 years of practice to that in life in general. She recalled a judge saying yearings ago: "You cannot apply the law of the horse and buggy days to the automobile age." rmnsmy stcck 28 CFF SEE US Sol iferm and arborvifa Excluded!
