CONTINUED FROM 1 I guest Kanarick fell that be was dealing wttb a bigger down than he waa becaUl8 bi grln.oecl, bowed. sat down and we tried the case wtthoUt further intenuption. Gladys Towles Root wat another lawyer who was alto a charectar. She was allo an acute~ ment to the bar. Her problem was that she had guts enough to defend the untouchables ol society 7 child molesters, peeping Tomi, sexual ¢Ubitionists and pomogr~. many ot whom made up a tort ot entowage that accompanied her various court appearances. Root was a large, homely woman who lnsilted on appear- ing in court in a hat. and not just ordinary hats, but great sweeping wide-brimmed hats that covered both sides of the counsel table. She had carried on a lively feud with the Los Angeles Superior Court for some years over her hats. The fussy Los Angeles County judges somehow con- ceived the idea that women shouldn't wear large hats in court. I knew all that and so the first time she appeared before me accompanied by her usual group of hangers-on, she swept through the door and took a challenging stance, prepared for the usual llghl over her hat. · Instead. I said. ·i.ove your hat, Mrs. Root.• On that flimsy basis, a lasting mutual admiration was born. I will always re.member her last appearance before me. I had heard that she had been in a seri· ous automobile accident that had resulted in not one buf two bro- ken hips. She swept into court Wlth her hat and her entourage. but this time in a wheelchair. I aid, ·1 understand that you have suffered a severe accident. You may address the court from a attmg po ition. • Root was made of stronger stuff. She struggled painfully to her feet. ·Not in your court. N ev- er tn your court.• That was my last contact with Gladys Towles Root. a woman I admired for her courage -and her hats. • ~ ~NIR Isa Corona del Mar resident and a fOfTMf' judge.
