THE BRIDGEPORT POST, THURSDAY, MARCH 29, 1962. THIRTEEN REVERSAL SOUGHT IN DIVORCE CASE Mildred Slrassburger Vaughan of Fairfield yesterday asked Su perior court to set aside a de fault divorce judgment obtained against her March 20, by Fred erick H. Vaughsn, of 26 Easi Eaton street. Mrs. Vaughan based her motion on a claim she had no knowledge that Mr.

Vaughan's petition brought and granted on the ground of intolerable cruelty, hai assigned for a hearing. Judge Benjamin M. Leipner awarded Mr. Vaughan a decree at the conclusion of an uncon tested hearing. Mrs.

Vaughan did not attend the hearing, and was not represented by counsel. In her motion to set the judgment Mrs. Vaughan al leges she not only has a defense to her husband's allegations, but grounds for a divorce on a cross- complaint. Alleging she was prevented by accident or mistake from attending the hearing of March 20, Mrs. Vaughan claims she depend' ed on a lawyer who is a frient of the family to inform her when the matter would be heard in court.

The lawyer failed to notify her, Mrs. Vaughan asserts, because he was out of the state for three weeks, during which time her husband's cause was assigned for a hearing. She says she did nol treat Mr. Vaughan with intolerable cruelty, and, as a matter of fact, "the reverse is true." They were married June 17, 1944.

HURRY IN NOW! Open Mon. Thru Fri, Til 6 Location Formerly RITZ BALLROOM FREE PARING For Over 100 Cars The World Today By JAMES MARLOW AuodnUd 1'rcil Km Aailjil WASHINGTON, March 29-AP) The Supreme court has an air about it: nine jus- ices, dressed in black, sitting in row behind a high bench in larble palace, dispensing wis- om.

What makes them human is what made Zeus look human: it's he scrapes they get into. They lot only get attacked from the iutside but from the inside by me another. The court has just emerged rom a decade of major decisions and tremendous criticism. And now, because of a ruling this tveek, new criticism is beginning. This was last Monday's decision hat federal courts have a right step in if states refuse to give heir citizens fair representation state legislatures.

This will affect politicians and, to no one's surprise, politicians are already screaming. The criticism may chill the court a while, as criticism in the past seems to have done, but this won't deter the court Irom getting Into new controversy later. President Jackson got Into a dispute with the court in 1833 when It told Georgia not to try to take over Cherokee Indian land. Georgia defied the court. Jackson, sympathetic to Georgia, told the court to try to carry out its decree itself.

And the court brought the house down on its head in 1857 when it said, in the Dred Scott case, Con- couldn't outlaw slavery in territories. But the biggest headon clash came in the 1930s when the high- conservative court, which 'resident Franklin D. Rooseveli said was living in the horse and buggy days, ruled against one liece of New Deal legislation af- er another. Roosevelt focused so much national attention on the justices, particularly when he tried to add new ones to the court, that the nine men may have been rendered self-conscious. At any rate, thereafter they began approving Roosevelt's legislation.

The South is still denouncing the court for its 1954 decision outlawing segregation in public schools. But all these events Involved criticism of the court from the outside. Disputes among the justices themselves on their decisions --and biting criticism of one another because of them--has been going on a long time. None of them was more scathing than Justice Felix Frankfurter who disagreed with the majority this week on the legislative representation case. He didn't think the court should get this deeply into political problems.

But Frankfurter has a long record of sounding off when he disagrees with his fellow justices, even though, like a phonograph record someone forgot to turn off, he repeats himself even to using the same words. Last week, for Instance, he accused the majority with which he disagreed of "asserting a destructively novel judicial power." Back on Feb. 7, 1944, in another disagreement, he accused the justices with whom he disagreed of "resorting gratuitously" to a "wholly novel doctrine of constitutional law." Frankfurter was used here as an example of in-court fighting not because he's the only one who does -it but only because he consistently seems to be the shrillest. Yet he has been through some of the most tar-reaching moments in the history oS tha court. It was in the 1950s that criticism really piled up on the justices, not only for their desegregation order on public schools, but for their decisions on communist activities.
