18. (UP) ware Circular Court at Muncie was ordered by the Indiana Supreme Court, in effect, to appoint 8 county voter registration board. Davis had delayed appointing such a board although state election laws require that when a county passes 80,000 population it must The have board consist of the a county registration board. county clerk must, one Democrat and one Republican nominated by the chairmen of the county political organizations. The high court acted' on request Rogers, who was recof ommended for appointment to the board by his county Democratic chairman.

The court ordered to appoint Rogers or show cause by Feb. 28 why he should not appoint him. The ruling was based on a similar case in' 1947 whenarthe Su-. cuit Judge Lloyd D. Claycombe to preme Court ordered Cirappoint a Democrat to the that regis- it tration board here, holding was the mandatory duty of the judge The court learned that Davis deto so.

clined to appoint a board for reasons of economy. However, it learned, the Delaware counter commissioners had assumed county mark would when pass its the tax 80,000 populations prepared last year and appropriated a sum for the board. Delaware was one of two Indiana counties which passed the 000 mark between the 1940 and 1950 U. S. census counts.

Eby recently ruled that Mayor M. Vernor Woodruff had a right to fill appointive jobs in the city administration. The. council bad filled 27 jobs with its own appointees. So had Woodruff when a new politicallydivided administration took office last Jan.

1. days, sets of workers reported on the job. But the supreme court- justices indicated they would deny a writ of prohibition against Eby, and the council therefore did not file an: appeal to Eby's ruling as they had voted last Jan. 22 to do.
