   Annual Red Mass
   Archbishop Karl J. Alter of Cincinnati will
be celebrant of the annual Red Mass  for
lawyers, judges, and governmental officials
at the Chapel of the Holy Spirit, The Fen-
wick, 434 E. Fifth St., on January 26. Com-
mon  Pleas Judge Ralph B. Kohnen, chairman,
has announced that all federal, county, and
municipal courts will be closed until 11 a.m.
on that day to permit attendance at the Mass,
which will begin at 9:30 a.m. and is open to
members  of all faiths.
  The Red Mass has its origin in early Eng-
lish times, when a similar ceremony was held
each year to invoke spiritual blessing and in-
spiration for the legal and judicial professions.
  The Cathedral Boys' Choir will again sing
  during the Mass. Rt. Rev. Msgr. Conrad B.
  Boffa is moderator of the Red Mass.


  Bogus   Lawyer Is Unveiled

  By  Bar   Office   Sleuthing
  As  a result of the alertness of the Better
  Business Bureau, the Cincinnati Bar Asso-
  ciation received a call in connection with J..
  George Murray, attorney at 205 East Sixth
  Street. He had previously called the office
  stating he had just moved here from Mans-
  field, Ohio, and had been admitted to prac-
  tice in Richland County in March, 1950. He
  made application for membership, sending in
  a money order, but stated that he knew no
  attorneys to sign his application.
  The  Cincinnati Bar Association called the
  Clerk of the Supreme Court to determine
  whether any one by the name of J. George
  Murray was  admitted to practice in Ohio.
  The Supreme Court records showed that an
  attorney by the name of George Junior Mur-
  ray was admitted in March, 1950, and was
  practicing in Mansfield. Martindale-Hubbell
  showed him to be a partner in a fine firm in
  that community. Another telephone call es-
  tablished the fact that Mr. Murray was at
  his desk in Mansfield.
  The   police moved in on December 24, and
  it was established that the Cincinnati Murray
  was really Robert D. Perry, a parolee from
  the Ohio Penitentiary.


New York Judge To Address

Gathering At Netherland
  The Quarterly Meeting of the Cincinnati
Bar Association will be held in conjunction
with the Annual Banquet of the Ohio Asso-
ciation of Probate Court Judges and Juvenile
Court Judges on Wednesday, January 27, at
6 p.m., in the Pavillon Caprice, at the Hotel
Netherland Hilton. A subscription cocktail
party will precede the dinner.
  The speaker at the meeting will be the
Honorable Justine Wise Polier, Judge of the
Domestic Relations Court, City of New York.
  Justice Polier, with her wealth of experi-
                  I wledge, is well quali-
                     field to speak for the
                     members  of the Bar.
                     As Justice of the New
                     York  Domestic Rela-
                     tions Court since her
                     appointment by May-
                     o r  La Guardia  i n
                     1935, she has handed
                     down   many  prece-
                     dent - making  deci-
                     sions. He  r recent
                     opinion in the Skip-
                     worth Case, in which
     Jusuire Pnwr Justice Polier held
 that students in two Harlem schools were
 receiving inferior educational opportunities
 because of racial discrimination, is likely to
 become a landmark case in American juris-
 prudence.
   As one of the nation's leading authorities
 on child welfare and juvenile delinquency,
 she has lectured widely on the subject. Her
 book, Everyone's Children - Nobody's Chil-
 dren, is a  standard work  on children's
 courts.
   Justice Polier was born in Portland, Ore.,
 She was educated at the Horace Mann School
 in New  York  and studied at Bryn Mawr,
 Radcliffe and Barnard. Following her grad-
 uation from Barnard, Justice Polier worked
 in New  Jersey textile factories preparing a
 study of racial and social factors in industry,
 and  spent a year at the International Labor
 Office in Geneva, Switzerland.
   Justice Polier attended Yale Law School,
