912 LAWS OF MARYLAND [CH. 527
ing to the number given the juror who has been designated as fore-
man, shall be placed in a box provided for that purpose; after which
the clerk shall, in the presence of the Judge or Judges, draw from
the box in which the balls are placed, in the same order and way that
ballots would be drawn, without in any way looking into said box,
one by one twenty-two of said marbles or balls, and shall announce
the number thereon and the name of the juror on said list whose
number corresponds therewith; and the twenty-two jurors whose
names correspond by number to the first twenty-two marbles or balls
so drawn, together with the juror who, having been already desig-
nated as foreman, and whose number has not been placed in the box,
shall constitute the Grand Jury for the term; and the jurors whose
names and numbers correspond to the remaining twenty-five or fifty
as the case may be marbles or balls shall constitute the Petit Jury
or Juries for the term. The intent and meaning of this section is not
to supersede or repeal the laws now regulating the drawing of juries
by ballot, but simply to provide another way of drawing them, leaving
the Judges in said county free to use either the ballot system or the
marble or ball system as may be most convenient and satisfactory to
the Judge or Judges drawing a jury.
Sec. 2. And be it further enacted, That this Act shall take effect
June 1, 1966.
Approved May 6, 1966.
