most important of the county
offices and one which con-

didate for the gubernatorial

qualities of leadership and
executive ability, said he was
a candidate who would at

Dr. Edwin R. Durno, Re

seeking the nomination for
the state senate post, exhibit

units.

operation of the body and
stressed that he would be in
the favored position of being
a "veteran" if elected.
Speaking of his campaign
for the same office, Melvin
Lattie said he believed he had
the necessary qualifications,
that he would be able to work
in harmony with others and
touched on his knowledge of
county problems, including
his work with a board which

Mrs. Evelyn (Stephen G.)

of the county and added that
"we have a good team for the
county court:
Chester Wendt, seeking re

duties of the county court
and said his record could be

ord."

assessor and clerk's office in
another county and added
that she also had gained ex

business and a ranch.
Mrs. Bereth Hopkins, in
cumbent seeking reelection as
clerk, pointed out that many
new functions and duties have
been added to the clerk's of
fice in recent years and added
that she believed "we have
done a good job in reorgani
zation of the office to make
it more5 effective."
Three Republican candi

ience as a peace officer and
has studied police methods:

with youth agencies. Joe

and said he was interested in
promoting volunteer groups
to work with law enforce
ment agencies.
Judge Candidates
Walter Nunley, seeking
nomination for the office of
circuit court judge, said few
laymen understand the judic
ial branch of government and
said there are different phil
osophies as to how justice
should be administered. He
added that he believes in
realistic and objective jus
tice" as opposed to "soft justice."
Another candidate for the
circuit judgeship, Robert
Dames, spoke of his war ex
periences, said he was deeply
interested in youth and
agencies devoted to their wel
fare and that he is dedicated
to "service to . humanity."
The third candidate for the
non-partisan judgeship, Man-
ville Heisel, said that regard
less of "personal philoso
phies" a circuit judge is ob
ligated to protect the people's
rights and that it is an office

ground an an ability to work
with and for people.
District Judge
Roy Bashaw, unopposed for
the office of district judge,

believed he could "wear the
mantle of the judgeship well."
The two candidates for
county coroner completed the
list of candidates. Frank Perl,
who has held the office in the
past, said he was for the "ro
tation plan" which he be
lieves to be fair. Carlos Mor
ris, incumbent, pledged him
self to continue to give good
service "at the same place"
and said he could see no point
