NEW YORK, Sept. 20--Howdy customers -— we're back on Broadway after our 31,000-mile world tour . , . convinced thai the world’s bigger than Texas, but that Texas has better publicity. * Almost everywhere we weént, my 10-gallon sombrero. inspired somebody to yell “Hi, Tex,” or something similar. Hirtagiey gd : What'd we like best? Honolulu! For Hawaii is Florida with climate. (Note to Floridians I'm kidding.) Biggest kick: In Thailand, or Siam, finding hamburgers and baked beans on the Hotel Trocadero menu—and having them for breakfast. Strangest feeling: Flyirg from Tokyo at 3 p. m. Sunday, staying in the air almost 24 hours, traveling 4288 miles, and arriving in Honolulu tn find it's still the same Sunday afternoon, same time—-thanks to the International Date Line. . Those 35 busy days, averaging 800 miles a day, left the Beautiful Wife a little groggy. “Here are flowers sent to you by the Head Gardener, “I ealled to her at the Royal Hawaiian Hotel in Honolulu. “Ed Gardner! What's he doing in Honolulu?” she called back. La >

HONOLULU gave me “ithe lawn mower to the city”—to cut grass skirts off. We visited Doris Duke’s- Shangri-la. She has stone camels at her front door. We wondered whether there was any conneetion with a cigaret of the same name. Truly, as New Yorker Elmer Leterman says, “Hawaii is ‘the place where you can't remember what you came to forget.” Then we hopped 2607 miles more, to San Franclsco, sitting leisurely in the cocktail lounge of the Pan-American double-decker Strato-Clipper much of the way. “The airplane has miade the Pacific nothing more than a lake,” a man said. Those Pan-Am pilots (who pioneered the Pacific air routes) surely treated us well. Never alrsick once although in India, due to the different food in the cities, we picked up some of the local ailment, unaffectionately known as ‘‘Delhi Belly.” And now we're hack with our souvenirs . . . a hubbly-bubbly pipe from Beirut, bedroom slippers with the Hotel Tokyo's name on them, that gosh-darned lawnmover from Honolulu.

NEW YORK, Sept. 20-— Seems our growing trend to popular tastes in vocal entertainment, at least on the masculine side, is getting louder, larger, 80 the girls don’t swoon any more until somebody busts the filaments in the light bulbs while simultaneously busting his vest. Possibly a sign of the strident times, or maybe I have just beén meeting more loud baritones lately. We have made a new Caruso out of this fat hoy, Mario Lanza, or tried to, and old man Pinza ain't looking for work, and this Robert Merrill man eats real steady, and they all sing loud and low in the register. Same with Massa Middleton, and. he’s the only fairly pretty one of the lot. Frankie Laine doesn’t whisper, either, . : But you could have struck me slightly dead with a tuning fork the other night when I fell into one of the local ginneries, called the Versailles, and there is an ancient and disreputable acquaintance of mine named John Carroll rat-

This guy wasn't even a professional singer until day before yesterday, but he's big, and oh, my Lord, he’s loud, and baritone he is for sure. i * * @ IT JUST goes to show you that a man doesn have to specialize. I know this Carroll from yonder, He studied music, once, somewhere back in the ice age, but an unwise relative left him a half-million bucks and off he went to Europe to perfect his voice. The money became more

intriguing than the mi-mi-mis and the pear-

THE TYPEWRITER: chattered over the years and finally a man like Allen Smith comes into the picture and is willing to sink over $17,000 in a venture that smacks of a gamble, It makes a young punk sit up and take notice of all the wonderful opportunities that are available. It makes a young punk feel mighty good to be introduced to Don Merriman, vice president of the Pauley Company, and his brother, Dick, secre-tary-treasurer, and Jack Glascock, also a vice president. You stand there and crack off about the noise, the greeh ink for the green author, the red ink if the book doesn't sell, Ther they whack you on the back and say it can't miss.

Plenty of Cussings—

By IRVING LEIBOWITZ OME forgotten lawyer not very long ago voiced his feelings toward Indiana’s five-man Supreme Court. “It's a damn good court,” he observed, “but I always reserve the right to cuss the judges after a case.” . And the judges get cussed out Not only by lawyers and their clients but by each other—in private. A : There's a reason for this. n ” » CONTRARY TO GENERAL belief, the law isn't cut and dried. And, in many cases, both sides can claim the law is on

State High Co

their side. That's what makes court cases. And judges, even Supreme

Court Justices, are no different - than anyone else when it comes to taking sides in a dispute. That's one reason why the Supreme Court is composed of five judges and not one. One Indiana judge said it all boils down to one thing— ‘the philosophy of law.” Everybody has his own interpretation.

Why do some judges rule one

wha. |

and cluet ec judges, sit in on the same case. rule another? : v Probably because they each interpret the law differently. But, men who have made long studies of “the judicial process” the way a judge arrives at a decision—say that sometimes a judge decides what is just or unjust because of his own experiences or training. ol LJ » THEY SAY, for example, that a judge's outlook is affected by his family life, as a boy and a man, his religious beliefs, his general scholastic preparation and training, his knowledge of history and economics, his-ac-quaintance with literature, the arts and sciences and a number of other highly personal practices and habits. Naturally, a judge's legal training also counts heavily in all decisions. The Indiana Supreme Court, the court of last resort for the great majority of Hoosiers, setties decisions ranging from the custody of children fo utility

cases, involving millions of dol-

lars. Only when there is a federal question involved can a case be appealed from the state’s high tribunal to the United States Supreme Court. » ” = SEVERAL YEARS AGO, a convicted murderer, Robert Austin Watts, appealed a state Supreme Court decision to the nation’s top court and won. ke was later convicted and eleetrocuted but after he was given a chance to show whether his civil rights had been violated. Rarely, however, does the U. 8S. Supreme Court reverse the state's high court. The

RARE Watts case was an isolated instance. Because of the highly technical nature of holding down a post on the state's high court, it - is usually filled with lawyers and trial judges. However, either political party could run a butcher or baker for the job legally. There are no qualifications required for the. tribunal outside of a residence requirement. All judges on the bench today happen fo be lawyers, each with a vast amount of legal training. » o ” POLITICS PLAYS a big part in making a Supreme Court Judge. although few judges will ever admit it. If the judges weren't in politics, they probably wouldn't even be considered for the bench.

more interesting stories here than anywhere else I've

This unique bit of transportation was supposed to serve as a hearse but Smith also uses it as sort of a bus and to haul wood if need be. They say he charges you $200 a ride if you are lying down and 50 cents if you are sitting up.

However, in recent years Republican and Democratic Justices have echoed the sentiment that politics should be

kept out of all court decisions.

One judge said recently:

“We can't make one law for Democrats and another for Republicans, We've got to make one law for everybody.” Most lawyers agree that the judges have succeeded. » » » CONTRARY TO GENERAL belief, the Supreme Court does not try cases.
