Robert Vanatta Starting in Right as Superior Judge.
The Muncie Evening Press has the following to say of Robert Vanatta, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Vanatta, of Rensselaer, who was elected last fall as superior judge in Grant and Delaware counties:
The present term of .the Delaware superior court has been the busiest one since the court was established. Not only have more cases been filed and disposed of, but the transferrence of several eases from the circuit court docket has made the superior court a busy place. Judge Robert M. Vanatta has taken hold of the affairs of the court in a most capable manner and is receiving the support of all the attorneys in keeping matters moving. There are only two more weeks in the February term and then an adjournment of six weeks will be taken, the April term beginning April 24th. Judge Vanatta is busy this week disposing of issues and setting cases down for trial. It is hoped to have a special jury for the April term of the superior court and many cases are being set down for the first and second weeks of the April term in order that no time may be lost in clearing the docket.
