New students, divided into groups of eight, were told by selected members of the junior class of the situation and problems confronting them as beginning law students. lt is hoped to make this a permanent feature of the new student program. The School of Law was proud to have its vice- president, Robert Sniezek, elected president of the Student Council at its regular meeting, Mon- day night, October l8. Credit goes to Robert Knapp, senior, for his time and efforts spent in organizing the sports program. Under his direction, the law school touch football team reached the championship finals. Another new feature of the law school pro- gram this year was a series of daily afternoon lectures on The Use of Law Books, given by The Kangaroo Secretary. .....,,,c Audrey McCalley Treasurer ....,,,.

Robert Meacham, Bernard Ruysser, Charles Davis, Jr., Robert Knapp, and John Stark received their choice of a copy of any legal publication by the West Publishing company for successfully com- pleting library reference problems. Faculty and students working together have instituted a Moot Court program in the curricu- lum, open to interested upperclassmen. Those participating organized the Dean Ellison Club and elected Sidney Rappaport, president, Her- bert Rope, vice-president, and Harvey Shackel- ford, Jr., advisor. Written briefs were submitted by each team, and oral arguments are now in progress before an appellate court composed of a faculty member and two senior students. The winners in each case are decided on a point basis and the twelve high teams will prepare another brief and argument for the semi-final competi- tion. Page 29
