Barker, McCoy, was giv en the grand champion award in the fleece display held in con junction with the show. Twenty five fleeces were entered. And unless you're too old. too deaf, a doctor or a teacher, you're eligible. It was the current case .wherein the supreme court is being asked to rule on the legality of a recent jury drawn in Lane County (Eu gene) that sent The Statesman on the prowl to determLne just bow, under, new laws, a jury is chosen. Simple Process It is a complicated yet simple process complicated because por tions of the law -are open to vari ous interpretations and simple be cause the intent of the law is plain. It is to split up jury duty between responsible American citizens. In all counties except Multno mah (Portland), an act of the 1955 legislature assigns the responsibil ity for making up the jury list to the various county clerks. Pre viously, county courts did ; the work. - 5 Outside of Multnomah County, the new law breaks down counties into two categories one for coun ties wherein circuit courts take care of all judicial duties, and one for counties lesser-populated ones in Eastern Oregon) wherein coun ty courts still retain some of the judicial prerogatives. Clrralt Ceart Category. The explanation herein oeaU with the first category. ' The law requires that In Marion County, and others in this classi fication, the county clerk near tne end of each year must select a list with a minimum of 1500 and maximum ot wo names repre senting alt areas. In Marion, for instance, county Clerk Henry Mattson last Decem ber made up such a list by taking every 15th name off the voter registration lis: until he had just over 1500. He got to the "Ms." Next year .he'll get them from the "Ms" through the Zs." After that, he says, be ll proo- ably start all over and take every 30th name so that he traverses the entire alphabet each year. And he'll try not to include anyone who has served in the three or four years Immediately preceding. Voter or Taxpayer The law says the list may be chosen either from the voter reg istration (nearly 50,000 in Marion County) or the tax rolls. Mattson elected to use the voter registra tion because it's under the Jur isdiction of his office. Anyway, he arrives annually at about 1500 names in the manner described. That's the basic list from which all jurors grand, circuit and dis trict courts are drawn for the subsequent 12-month period. The circuit court list is chosen first. Slips of paper with the 1500 ndmes, are folded and placed la a "souirrel cage" for mixing. Then, in the presence of Senior Circuit Judge George Duncan, Mattson draws 50 names. These are subject to call as circuit court jurors. Then he draws another 7$ names These are reserve circuit court jurors, for call if and when the first 50 are depleted. District Court Assuming there were 1500 names from which to draw, that leaves 1375. Those 1375 are mixed up and Sheriff Denver Young, in the pres ence of the county clerk, draws out 20 slips. Persons whose names are thus drawn are on the panel for district court jurors. The 135$ slips remaining are kept intact and a similar procedure is follow ed each three months of the year. Jurors chosen are on caD for one term of court (three months). But they are also subject to being pand jurors for another three months. Near the end of each term of court, seven names are drawn from the 125 on the circuit court list These seven, for the next term (three months) comprise the grand jury that highly secretive body which determines at times whether a defendent is to face a trial jury later on. Chosen by Lot Jurors also are chosen by lot for individual trials. For instance, when a term of court opens the 50 "active" jurors have their slips in the "squirrel cage" and 12 names are drawn. Those 12 com prise the trial jury-to begin with. But the initial 12 seldom stay in tact. Attorneys more than likely will get some of them moved off. the panel for reasons of qualifi cation or prejudice. Then more slips must be drawn out of the "squirrel cage." And when the first $0 are almost gone, the .names of the 75 'reserves- are dumped in. Mattson, commenting on the procedure, says "we try very hard to conform with the law, though it's true that interpretation for parts of it can vary, because we don't want someone to pop up after a trial and be able to claim a verdict was unfair due to any part we might have played is the selection of a jury." Qty Firemen Report Four Minor Runs Sslem fire stations answered four calls to minor 'fires Satur day, the city fire department re ported.

The IKS sales tax biH providing for a three per cent sales tax was approved by the House but later was defeated In the Senate. The committee, of which State Sen. Rudie Wilhelm Jr., Portland, is chairman, decided to invite League of Oregon Cities officials to appear and express their views on a permissive one per cent sales tax for cities and counties. Such a tax, according to Sena tor Wilhelm, would be levied by localities' in addition to the pro posed State Sales Tax. It is pro posed that the tax involving cities and counties be collected by the State and turned back to local governments. Wisdom Denoted Doubt as to the wisdom of ex empting Oregon insurance com panies from both premium taxes and corporatioa excise taxes was expressed by committee members. The committee said a full review ot taxes on domestic companies would be made. State Tax Commissioner Samuel Stewart informed the committee that the cost of the property re appraisal program, based on sev en counties where the operation had been completed, was higher than the estimate. He added, how ever, that the cost wss not out of line with the percentage ot the whole job. A decision ot the committee ttatl!Vrw.L.J srfi..E3H water snouia do ex em pi irorn in proposed sales tax bill was par tially revised. They, said water could be taxed when frozen and old as ice. The committee held a night ses sion Friday and was on the job at 7:30 a.m. Saturday. Senator Wilhelm said the com mittee was making good progress but some time would elapse be fore any bills are reported out The committee recently went on record for repeal ot the 45 per cent surtax on Incomes at the 1957 ses sion. This surtax was imposed by the 1955 Legislature and has caus ed a lot ot criticism from taxpay ers.
