Brown, for fif- teen years a practicing attorney of Douglas, Wyo., will succeed Ralph Kimball as judge of the sixth ju- dicial district, comprising Natrona, Converse and Fremont counties. News of his appointment by Gov. Rob: ert D. Carey this morning has been re- ceived in Casper and met with the gen- eral approval of members of the Natro- na County Bar Association. Attorney Eiown will qualify at once for the office wnd will begin. his work Wednesday morning with the opening of court at Lander. Attorney Brown is a Republican, but has never been a candidate for office. He is « married man with a family and a is probable that he will continue to e his home in Douglas, although members of the bar here hope that he will move to Casper as amore central location in the district. The unexpired term for which he § appointed amounts to practically the full term of two years fnasmuch as th€ ‘appointment ¢omes on the date when his predecessor would have begun his new term of office. The appointment, it is understood, was made by Gov. Carey without any general recommendation from the three bar associations affected, no agreement having been reached in various consul tations. It is expected to meet with universal approval, however, since this sentiment predominates here and Cas- per attorneys were loath to concede the appointment to any other point within the district.
