SERJEANTS AT LAW. HORIZONTAL: K. Ptakovich. SEATED: S. Stevens, B. Miller, L. Broun, R. McAulay, P. Vinnicof, K. Britton CPresiden0. STANDING: K. Kaye, R. Rogers, M. Greene, G. Buftington, B. Lynch. Witness Britton starts to go topless and the Judge' warily observes the proceedings SERJEANTS AT LAW Under the sterling guidance of ex-cattle rancher Ken Britton the cause of the courtroom lawyer surged ahead this year at Stanford. The Serjcants was established several years ago to give law students some jury trial experience by conducting mock trials. The Seijeants have also campaigned to raise the status of the trial lawyer at Stanford. The organization was successful in adding to the curriculum a course in Trial Advocacy which starred Professor John Kaplan, Professor Thelton Henderson, and advocate Bill Keogh. President Britton along with retired politician and ex-motorcycle racer Rod McAulay and Paul Vinnicof, vice president for jury recruitment, attended a course in autopsy analysis and forensic medicine given by Melvin Belli. This year the Serjeants were extended credit at L'Omelette French Restaurant, gained the active support of the local bench and bar, had their typewriter refurbished and doubled the number of mock trials. Part of the glorious success for the year was due to the passionate participation of ex-jet navigator Roy Broun, vice president for judicial relations, and fearless Ben Miller, chief trial advisor. The real peanut butter between the slabs of bread, however, was none other than the beaautiful Karen Ptak whose long eyelashes and ability to write and act gave the organization a continuity which was the envy of the school.

jouaivat o Nrr NATIONAL STUDIE JOURNAL OF INTERNATIONAL STUDIES. SEATED Adlhock, G. Jones, M. Wright STANDING: J. Anderson Rowles, E. Fischer. The Stanford Journal of International Studies is a student-edited, interdisciplinary publication centered at the School of Law. It is designed to offer students the experiences and training derived from a rigorous writing and editing process. In addition, the Journal is designed to contribute to a broad based approach to international problems by facilitating communication and cumulative interaction among specialists throughout the academic and professional community. Institutionally, the Journal supersedes the annual Proceedings, published for two years by the School's International Society. The Proceedings contained symposia dealing with East-West trade and economic development, and though oriented toward the legal pro- cess, the Proceedings was successful in bringing together economists, political scientists, and businessmen in addition to lawyers. In early 1968, the members of the International Society thought that the Proceedings ought to be expanded into a regular publication which would offer students increased opportunities to write and publish and to work with graduate students in other disciplines. The result was the Journal which appeared for the first time in June, 1968 and contained a symposium on foreign interventionin civil strife. Each issue of the Journal has focused on a single theme, such as ocean resources, thereby presenting the reader a substantial body of scholarship providing an in-depth and interrelated treatment of international problems. This line of development is based on the growing recognition that academic divisions are, in large part, mechanical and that such divisions obscure the real nature of the issues. Any thorough analysis of the problems requires the collaborative efforts of men with varied perspectives, each contributing his expertise toward a sharper delineation of issues and the ultimate pursuit of solutions. This year's issue on ocean resources brings together articles by lawyers, scientists, oceanographers, and engineers, as well as articles by students. Editorial responsibility is vested in a staff composed of students from the law school and other graduate schools, and the staff is responsible for the preparation of student articles and for a careful editing and cite-check of all articles prior to publication. All professional and graduate students are eligible to participate on the staff. While the staff remains independent of the faculty, the editors have found that the advice of professors is invaluable. -ul gs P. P' E 5 Q 3 E. 'E O P1 LT CD 5' :1 gn.
