The first step toward non- lawyer participation in lawyer discipline proceedings has been taken by the Board of Gover­ nors of the Illinois State Bar association The twenty-three member Board of Governors has recommended the addition of^ public members to the disciplinary system of the Illinois Supreme court If ap­ proved next month by the Assembly of the Illinois State Bar association, the proposal will be forwarded to the Illinois Supreme court for con­ sideration. The proposal calls for adding two public members to the Disciplinary commission and for adding one public member to each of the Inquiry boards which investigate complaints against lawyers and decide whether formal charges should be filed Discipline of Illinois lawyers is the function of the Attorney Registration and Disciplinary commission, an arm of the Illinois Supreme court Every lawyer licensed to practice in Illinois pays an annual fee to finance the disciplinary system Currently, all mem­ bers of the commission and its various boards must be lawyers according to the rules of the Supreme court ' The proposal, to be voted on by the 160 member ISBA Assembly Nov. 11, includes public members at two crucial stages in the disciplinary process - the inquiry process at which point it is determined whether a valid complaint exists and that a formal charge should be filed against a lawyer, and on the commission which sets policy and oversees the entire disciplinary system The action of the ISBA Board of Governors was primarily the result of a Long-Range Plan­ ning conference last April which recommended a large number of goals for the legal profession. Eighty lawyer and lay participants of the Con­ ference strongly recommended public participation in the disciplinary process. Such public participation in lawyer discipline exists in twenty-two other states. The Illinois Courts ^commission, charged with the Responsibility of investigating complaints against Illinois judges, includes public members. The ISBA Board of Gover nors has also recommended that confidentiality of disciplinary proceedings be contineud unless the lawyer facing the complaint waives confidentiality, the complaint is based on conviction of a crime or the disciplinary proceeding has been publicized in the news media. Current Supreme court rules impose strict confidentiality on lawyer discipline proceedings until the Supreme court imposes disciplinary action.

She ac­ companied her sister, Carrie Fisher, to Seminole, Fla. to open her winter home. Mable stayed for a week to enjoy the Florida seen and do some fishing. While fishing on a charter fishing boat in the Gulf of Mexico she had quite an ex­ citing day. The boat was the Datona Cat, a charter fishing boat whose Capt. Ed and his crew, Dick and John, were baiting hooks for their passenger when an unusual sight passed them They were 18 miles out in the Gulf when what looked like bails of hay were sfeen floating on the water. Capt. Ed and his crew picked up four of the bails The Baytona Cat's sister boat, Florida Fisherman, also out with a fishing party, picked up 6 bales. The Coast Guard was called and the fishing excursion ended with the boats meeting them in Tarpon Springs with Bales. The bales contained marajuana. It was learned later that a drug ring operation which was operated off the 44 ft. cruiser, Phoenix, was in­ terrupted. In two days time the Coast Guard confiscated 155 bales of marajuana valued at $3 million out of the Gulf. The third day an addditional 500 lbs. were found. The crew of the Phoenix and several others were arrested for possession. Mable and Carrie were guests for dinner a lobster house. The food is fantastic. Their own trawlers catch fresh seafood daily. " Before leaving for home Mrs. Fisher's neighbors, Ray and Bill King, presented Mable with some fresh caught ocean trout; since her fishing excursion was interrupted. Although Mable did catch some Grouper before coming upon the marajuana. Mable met Carrie at her home in Muncie, Ind., and together they drove to Florida. A nephew Charles White of Muncie is the proud owner of the country's prize Palomino horse. Mable has pictures of Sir Crier with nephew, Charles, and his wife, Pat, and all Sir Crier's awards and ribbons. It was published along with a story about the Whites and their prize stallion in the I'm doin' my Shopping on THURSDAY NIGHTS! ^ual author, Nancy Hunt, makes a revealing point for McHenry County college journalism MCC PHOTO BY DENNIS DALBY "Writers aj-e hams," trans­ sexual author Nancy Hunt told McHenry County college journalism students as part of the 1978 Visiting Professional Series of lectures Telling why she wrote her new book, Mirror Image, Hunt said, "Writing is something you do for money." Before her sex change operation, the author covered the Vietnam War for the Chicago Tribune. "It was a strenuous way of life. You had to dig your own foxholes and find shelter from mortar fire Combat is a stimulation experience, easy to write about. You can see, feel, hear and smell with tremen­ dous clarity," Ms. Hunt emotionally recalled for her audience of journalism students. The veteran reporter, who has been in professional journalism for some 20 years, told of her unique experience in writing and selling Mirror Image. The book's publisher, Holt, Rinehart and Winston, advanced her $10,000 on an initial press run of 12,500 copies. Mirror Image, a revealing autobiography, covers Hunt's childhood in Connecticut, her days at Yale, her World War II infantry experience, her two marriages, her Tribune background and the series of events that led to her sex change operation. "Being a transsexual is a driving compulsion. I would most certainly commit suicide today if I had to go back (to being a man)," Hunt revealed. The incidence of suicide among transsexuals is rather shocking." Addressing the subject of research into transsexualism Hunt said, "It's superficial and scares the death out of most professionals." Hunt's participation in the Visiting Professional series of journalism lectures was coordinated by MCC instructor, Joseph Longmeyer. Urge Public Participation In Discipline Of Lawyers Muncie Star. I'd call that some vacation! PRANKSTERS For, over a week pranksters have been going around the village running rampant with their mischief. Halloween time of the year seems to bring out the pranksters all over. Cars were sprayed with shaving cream, eggs smashed on cars and houses. And trees and shrubs throughout the village were decorated with toilet tissue. Eggs broken on cars can ruin the finish on a car; leaving streaks that bleach the finish. Isn't it a shame that our youngsters have no place to go SECTION 2-PAGE 3 - PLAINDEALER - WEDNESDAY.
