BANG UP WEDDING
ATHENS (JP)—Thirty “bandits”
raided a small village in northern
Greece recently. But there were
no shots fired, no houses burned,
and no casualties reported.
The only “loot” was a pretty
Greek maid whose mother had
t
been holding out against her get
ting married. The “bandits,”
friends of the would-be-groom, i
revived an ancient Greek village ;
custom to whisk the girl away
from home. Still brandishing pis
I tols, the caballeros then routed a
i priest out of bed to perform the
midnight ceremony.

On Statehood Bill
(Continued from Page One)
and if this occurs, the usual
Courts prevelant in all other
States will be stipulated in Alas
ka’s Constitution.
It does say however, that the
State of Alaska shall constitute
one Judicial District, and that
court (U. S. District Court* shall
be held at Anchorage, Fairbanks,
Juneau, and Nome. While it does
not so state, the presumption is
that Alaska's one Judicial District j
will have, in addition to the Uni
ted States District Judge, a U. S.
Marshal and deputies, and a U. S.
Attorney and deputies. There are i
several pages devoted to the man- j
ner in which all legal actions, civ- j
il or criminal, shall be disposed of
at the time Alaska ceases to be a
Territory and assumes statehood, ;
including a declaration of juris- !
diction of the respective courts,
and winds it up by saying:
"All cases pending in District
Court for the Territory of Alaska
at the time the Territory becomes
a state, not transferred to tho
United States District Court for
the District of Alaska, shall be
proceeded with and determined
by, the courts created by the
State of Alaska, with the right to
prosecute appeals or writs of er
ror to the Appelate Courts crea
ted by the State, and with the
same right to prosecute appeals or
writs of error from the final de
termination made by the Court of
last resort created by the State,
to the Supreme Court of the Uni
ted States.

Pilot Fined $100
For 1947 Crash
SEATTLE, (/P)—Afederal court
jury cleared an Alaska airlines
pilot of carelessness last night,
but convicted him of trying an in
strument landing at Boeing Field
with too low a ceiling in 1947.
The pilot was James E. Farris.
After his landing attempt at Boe
ing failed, he continued to the
Seattle-Tacoma airport, where th*
plane crashed and burned with
a loss of nine lives.
For attempting the Boeing land
ing with a ceiling lower than that
prescribed by civil aeronautics ad
ministration regulations, Farris
was fined $100. The government
had asked he be fined $1,000.
Farris denied both the govern- (
ment’s charges, brought by the
CAA. He maintained he did his •
best to make a safe landing, de
spite excessive engine “rough
ness.” poor visibility and defec- J
tive brakes. i
Government attorneys also
charged Farris landed at exces
sive speed and more than halfway
down the runway. Defense attor
neys declared other engine rough
ness and hydraulic brake failure
hampered operations.

TOKYO, (/P)—Maj. Gen. Chas.

“apparrently was a paranoic”—
