LAWYERS. FOR* THE MOST

tot whose emotions are nut easily
lisiurbed because they are accus-omed
to dealing with the seaniv

Mattered to bits last week when
nsidtnt Judge Dannehowei Jolted

that he is going to quit the

The nnnouncemen* came so sud-
Jrnly that it caught most of the
attorneys flat-footed. When lt first

But When the Initial shock wore
off. most realized they were about
to lose their best friend, advisor and
confessor. It was akin to a mother
hen leaving her flock.
Heads were hung In sorrow. legal
eyes swelled with tears and a gen-eral
atmosphere of gloom descended
over the Court House, confeu-nc*
rooms, lunch counters and where-evn
lawyers gathered.
During his 28 years on the bench
Judge Dannehower has rharted the
rournr for more attorneys than all
the other Judges combined In the
history of Montgomery County.
He has listened to their problems,
their troubles and complaints p:;v-ately
and In open court, hour after
hour when more pressing matters
awaited his attention. His patience
was unlimited, his need always
cheerful.
One lawyer summed It up in a nut
shell: "Judge Dannehower," he
said." had such charm he could
give you 20 yean In Jail and you
would thank him for II."
Although it probably won't work.
