ALTOONA TRIBUNE, ALTOONA, SATURDAY, JAN. 2, 1982 MORNING CROW- 1 haven't did, done something for a year: yesterday Changed license tags on my chug-chug buggy. then I forgot the numbers Andy wandered up and down the terior of every car, avenue, peering into this daitutes before I bethought myself of the registration card reposing snugly in my coat pocket. No damage done, except two girls, sitting: in a car into which I to was flirt peering, with thoughand started to call A. policeman.

But I quickly transferred my investigations to the other side of the street. They retaliated by looking disappointed. These women! A day like yesterday always gets me into an argument with myself: Put the chains on or not to put the chains on, that is the question. The result is always the same: If I put 'em on, the sun comes out, everything dries up and I find myself clanking over bare concrete, making as much noise as a riveting machine in a graveyard. If I don't put em on, everything freezes tight and I turn six circles just getting out of the garage.

Some day I'm going to compromise: Put one on and leave one offand see what happens. Why worry about what the new year is going to bring you? Either you will be successful, or you will not be successful. If you are not successful, there are only two things to worry about. Your health is either good, or you are sick. If your health is good, there is nothing to worry about.

If you are sick, there are only two things to worry about. You are either going to get well, or are going to die. Yoou are going to get well, there is nothing to worry about. If you are going to die, there are only two things to worry about. You are either going to heaven, or you are not going to heaven.

If you are going to heaven, there is nothing to worry about. If you are going to the other place, you'll be SO busy shaking hands with old friends and acquaintances, you won't have anything to worry about. So why worry? 50-Year-Old Visit Is Returned; Bay Clear ASHLAND, Jan. Undaunted by snow furries whipped by strong east wind, 50 Bayfield and Washburn citizens crossed Chequamegon on Lake Superior to Ashland today in two small yachts to carry out a promise made 54 years ago. In 1878 contingent of Ashland citizens journeyed to Bayfield on the tug Wadsworth on New Year's day because for the first time in the history of the white men, the harbor was clear of ice.

Bayfield was so enthusiastic over the visit that a promise was made to reciprocate as soon as the bay was open on a New Year's day. It wasn't until today that promise could be fulfilled. The delegation, after a two hour trip, was welcomed by a band and feted at a banquet where greetings were extended by Mayor M. E. Dillon of Ashland.

WARN OF "RACKET" NEW YORK, Jan. -The Texas corporation, in a statement to stockholders accompanying dividend checks today takes occasion to warn against dangers to the oil industry through the operation of gasoline "racketeers."

TO No Cover Charge GLENN HUMPHREY, Prop. Phone Altoona 9700 Judge Ends Year's Labor, Docket Clean By HARRY P. HAYS A clean docket was the New Year's gift of- Judge Marion D.

Patterson to the people of Blair county. When he closed his office, Thursday evening, all litigation, both civil and criminal, for the year of 1931 was at an end as far as the Blair county courts were concerned. Monday morning the judge faces the work of the new year. The past year was marked by much litigation, and only a few outside of the legal profession appreciate the stupendous work required of the judge to enable him to write "finis" on the last legal issue on December 31. During the year there were 260 cases listed for trial in the civil court, and 379 cases for argument court.

To the criminal courts 681 cases were returned. Divorces to the number of 85 were granted or refused, along with 150 juvenile returns, writs, hactions, corpus and miscellaneous making a total of 1,555 cases. When court adjourns the judge is not at liberty to fold up his papers and stroll out to play golf. He is not bound down by an statute, but by his sense of duty. When all others are rest, he is working, in order that litigants be relieved of uncertainty as soon as possible and reduce their exI penses to a minimum.

While many will hold a contrary view, lawyers are not fond of argument. The court, spring generally from some arguments they, make before the legal point in the case at issue. The court listens, to their contentions, although the moment may be satisfied in his own mind and prepared to make a decision. Score after score of opinions and decrees were handed down by Judge Patterson during the year and they envolved patient labor and long hours and meditation. Locked up in alone intense, with the case, after long and careful consideration, he writes the decision of the court.

He naturally thinks not only of the immediate effect of his decision, but how it will stand in the future as an example of his legal conclusion. Judge Patterson fully realizes that the most appropriate memorial of a public man is a faithful record of his public acts, therefore his opinions always are stamped with the emblem of careful consideration and close reasoning. There is a saying to the effect that there is not so much in knowing the law as knowing where to find it. Before handing down an opinion Judge Patterson must 'search laws and decisions and apply them to the case, at issue. He must seek and comprehensive knowledge where to find precedents supporting, his application of the to marshal them all in a legal document which may be scrutinized by the Supreme court of the state.

In writing his decisions, he must be at once lucid and concise, requiring power of expression united with more than unusual legal acquirements. The most distressing cases coming before, Judge Patterson are domestic relations and those where boys and girls are concerned. Husbands and wives, many come before him with tales young, of love lost, misplaced confidence and the sad tales of romance lost forever. Judge Patterson must make some ruling, and that ruling, as experience in the court emphasizes, is based upon common sense. Young boys who appear before him are the cause of much concern.

The ordinary father would invite the boy to the woodshed for punishment, but Judge Patterson desires to inflict no punishment upon the boy. Every boy appeals to him for mercy just by his presence and it is of great importance to the boy and to the community just what kind of a sentence is imposed. Many times judge is compelled to order the youthful defendent to confinement, fearful that result will not prove beneficial. love for boys now apthen preciated by many parents whose sons appeared to answer for misdeeds before an understanding jurist.

(AP) Testimony of incendiary speeches urging miners to "get rid of Jim Daniels and his gun thugs." was offered in evidence here today at the murder conspiracy trial of William H. Hightower. "We'll win out even if we have to wade in blood up to our necks," was a statement attributed to the union president by Miller Sergeant, a miner testifying for the state.

Butler Sanders, who said he had been a member of the union, quoted Hightower, as saying "we won't have black mountain gun thugs to contend with much longer." Hightower, 77-year-old miner, who followed closely the testimony with his wife and children by his side, is being tried in connection with the slaying of Deputy Sheriff Daniels, chief guard at the Black mountain mine. The death of Daniels and three other men in a clash at Evarts last May between three automobile loads of deputies and a score or more of miners, climaxed the strike disorders and brought troops into the coal fields. Testimony attributing incendiary statements to Hightower and to William O. Jones, union secretary, already sentenced to life imprisonment and awaiting filing of an appeal, was offered during the day. The commonwealth also, brought witnesses who testified other miners, now indicted and awaiting trial, were sitting in armed groups the roadside at Evarts shortly before the clash.

This was designed to prove a conspiracy existed. A threatening letter warning them not to testify at the Hightower trial was exhibited by John and Hugh Lester.

If you see the Fifth ward bus rolling along waving an illuminated arm at think it's a New Year's greeting. you A new safety device being tried out on the bus by the Logan Valley Bus company attracted much attention in the city yesterday by its novel and somewhat pleasing design. The device consists of two illuminated arms which rise from the sides of the bus, each containing a red light inside a frosted glass, which gives it the semblance of a Christmas or a New Year's greeting.

The effect is further heightened by the gentle waving of the arm after it has been raised into place. The arms are mounted at each side of the bus and when in action are very noticeable. The arm is raised to denote change dileft, rection to approaching motorists. The right arr is used when the bus i loading or discharging passengers. Persons entering the bus, yesterday, all the beckoning arm above their heads the semblance of a greeting it seemed to merit.

The driver of the bus reported that every regular passenger on the line seemed to recognize the waving arm as a greeting from him and responded with wave. He also intimated. that a number of Altoona maids cast fleeting glances the device that seemed to say, "Let's get and just as quickly looked to him fo: an interpretation of the signal.

retaliation against Representative McFadden, of Canton, for his re recent a attack on President Hoover appears unlikely. There will be, of course, opposition to McFadden's renomination from Republican leaders in the state but there is no disposition to mete out immediately any further punishment. A plan to force him out of the secretaryship of the Pennsylvania Republican delegation in the house and possibly to expell him from the banking committee has been announced. Party leaders are afraid such action may aid him in his campaign' for re-election. Since was deprived of his postmaster patronage in his home trict, the fifteenth, letters condemning such a step have been coming to members of congress.

His charges that the President "sold out" to Germany in proposing debt moratorium and subsequent developments put McFadden de very much in the limelight. While they resent the personal nature of his accusations against the President, nearly all of the delegation are sympathetic to his stand against further aid for Europe. Heartened by a favorable response to his anti-debt cancellation star d. McFadden, from all appearances, is preparing to run for re-election. He refuses to answer questions as to his candidacy, saying he never has announced himself until February 1 of a congressional election year.

He is watching the campaign of Mrs. Gifford Pinchot, wife of the Pennsylvania governor, who has announced her candidacy for his seat. Leaders among house Republicans are inclined to treat the matter as "a closed incident" so long a3 McFadden doesn't stir them again. As chairman of the banking committee in the last congress, he will continue to serve as ranking Republican member of that group. Leaders believe an attempt to dispose of him would result in failure.
