Verdict to Defendants in Practice Law Case
Moreau Says Counsel for Both Sides Handled Trial Well
In the practice court of the School of Law, which was provided over by C. A. Smart, Lawrence lawyer and former lawyer after deliberating about 15 minutes returned a verdict for the defendants. Dwight Wallace, 133, and Owen C. 133, who were said by Bruce Atchison, 734, for Senate counsel. The "trial, what," white
lasted from a simulated accident at the corner of Thirteenth and Massachusetts streets, began at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon. A few minutes later, Green Hall and was over by 5:30 p.m.
The attorneys for the plaintiff were Lee Vaughn Jr., T32, Wyman Wickersham, T32, and Charles Hoover, T32. They were opposed by Charles Hassett, T32, and Phil Cook, T32, who represented the defendants. Charles Mengtze, T33, was the bailiff, and Clark M Fleming, T33, was the Clerk of the Court.
The 13 witnesses were chosen from the second year law class. With some difficulty a jury of six freshmen was selected John A. Herlocker, Richard A. Carber, Horace Bertford, Charles H. Anderson, and Sallian Sullivan on the jury.
For the audience the trial affords moments of libidity, but for the litigants it was a serious, hard-bound battle between situations, situations and the legal procedure found in the regular courts. F. J. Morano, professor of law, who had charge of the case, said, "The case was very interesting because there were so many situations in the trial to which the jury would have to deal. The vital shifts of position and the counsel for both sides handled those situations remarkably well. The law school is proud to have had such a veteran jurist, who enjoys a high reputation among the lawyers in this jurisdiction, as its guest. He took a very vital and active interest in the case."

Walter Simmons Will Fill Vacancy on Men's Council
Action Follows Closely On F. H. Guild's Judgment Regarding First Election
TWO MEN CONSIDERED
Walter Simmons, c34, was last night elected by the Men's Student Council to fill the vacancy of the two-year position at the university. The action of the Council followed closely after F. H Guild, head of the political science department, had judged that the action of the old Guild required the vacancy have been unconstitutional.
At a meeting a week ago Wednesday the Orend-Kayhawk council had elected Melvin C. Burnett, c'33, to fill the unexpired Melin. Harold Denton, c'33, a member of last year's Council and the president of the council, protested that the election was not in accordance with the constitution.
Not needing Denton's opinion, the Council filled the vacancy as it had planned, agreeing to refer the validity of the letter to the politico- science department.
Council Went Ahead
Professor Guild held that the constitution did not permit a special meeting of the Council to act on the petitions and further that the petitions would have to be in the hands of the petitioners two days before action could be taken.
Just before the close of the first meeting of the new Council last night there was an expectant pause. Denton unled.
Consider the Election
"We have one more matter of business to be considered tonight," he said. There was a scruffling of chairs, smiles and laughter as he listened to Davies' dumbless read of the opinion of Professor Guild as regards the election hold at the last meeting of the Council. Is there any need for me to read the prepared by Pro-Guild?
Several members declared that it was unnecessary to read the statement.
Denton again offered to read the opinion of Professor Guild. There were several cries to proceed with the business.
It was moved that previous action of he Council concerning the election of man to fill the unexpired term be enaid. The motion carried.
Move to Set Aside Action
The petitions of the two candidates were read to the Council and voted愈 rapidly. Simmons was elected with only three dissection votes.
As the Council now stands it is composed of 17 Pachamamas, 5 Oronde Kaywhacky, and 1 Independence the Graduate School representative is not in school.
Engineering Club Organized

Deputy Sheriff Stationed at West End of Campus Gives Warning
"Speeding and reckless driving has got to stop," a deputy sheriff warned this morning. "We're starting to enforce traffic rules on the road at the west end of the campus and out in West Hills."

FORMER PROFESSOR TO TALK BEFORE COMMERCE BANQUET

Being curious as to the basis for the statement by a speaker at the recent Law gruddition dinner, it is clear that Kansers who went to Jefferson City to take
the Missouri bar examination tailed a pass, a reporter for the Daily Kansas braached the matter to Dr Frank Strong, of the School of Law faculty.
K. U. Laws Fail Missouri Bar Exam Because They Lack Full Preparation
"The trouble with the statement," said Dr. Strong, "is that, taken by itself, it is likely to be misleading.
"In the Missouri bar examination in February, 1982, about 251 applicants tried the examinations, and of this entire number only 29 were successful in passing all subjects required for admission to the Missouri bar.
"None of the students from the University of Kansas who tried the examination is a graduate. They are keen to look at least a full semester of graduation and all were examined in some subjects which they had never studied and in general they were not."
The "Missouri examination covers 23 subjects grouped in 10 categories. An average of 6 students among the 10 groups to qualify for admission to the bar, but applicants who pass in some of the groups are not qualified to take part in such groups upon a second examination.
"One of the University of Kansas students, although not yet a graduate, was successful in being admitted to the university, but only in one of the 10 groups, some in seven and none in less than six. They have that much to their credit upon a second examination required to pass in such subjects again."
"It has been intimated that examining boards in general are reluctant to admit to practice candidates from law schools who have not completed their course of study leading to a degree. This is because the final year of a law course is much the most important part of a law school's curriculum and consolidate the earlier subjects. In case of doubt such partially equipped applicants should not be passed, but sent back for further study. This falls in with the position of the University of Kansas School of Law which has given its students the option nottingham to the bar examination any law student who is not a graduate. The policy of bar examiners in discouraging the admission of applicants who have taken only a portion of a standard three-year course will have a wholesome result. It is welcomed by law schools throughout the country."
Full Military and Civil Honors Given Doumer
France in Mourning for Murdered President of Republic
of Republic
Paris, May 12—(U) Heavy leader skies cast mourning over France today as the nation buried its murdered Presa- tionist in a mass grave and the fullest military and civil ceremony.
The funeral procession was two miles long, which meant that mounted troops at the head of the line arrived at Notre Dame before the final delegation led the Elysse. Mourning was observed throughout the nation.
The most solemn part of the ceremony took place at Notre Dame where the President's body was placed on an catafalone 17 feet high, draped in black beneath a canopy of black lined with the French tri-color. Castles on the mountain were also decorated and was said by Cardinal Viverrier, archchancellor of Paris.
The procession then went to the Panthenon, where the body will rest until it is removed to the family cemetery. There the body will be placed by the bodies of Daumer's four sons who were killed in the World War.
Pollution not allow photographers or newspaper men to approach members of the British royal party. Thousands ofarians and pilgrims from all parts of France assembled along the funeral route long before dawn. Balances of buildings along the route were named tourists along the route. There were many tourists.
Award Winner on Campu
Dr. Edward C. Franklin a Universit; Visitor; to Leave Sunday
Dr. Edward C. Franklin, 88, is making a short visit in Lawrence while on his way to Chicago to receive the Willard-Gibbs gold medal for scientific achievements as he has accomplished much in the field of chemical research. Dr. Franklin entered the University in 1884 and after graduating from here he studied in Berlin, Germany, for several years.
"The only buildings that were on the campus in my state," states Dr. Franklin, "are Fraser hall and what is now the Journalism building which was formerly the Chemistry building." Dr. Franklin is one of the most prominent scholars in the United States, having been president of the American Chemical society, i.e. guest of the British Scientific association, and a member of the Scientific Congress to New Zealand. Shortly after his college days he made an extensive camping trip throughout the United States with General Fred Funston and William Allen White. While a student at Columbia University, he was a member of Pi Delta Theta social fraternity, Dr. Franklin intends to leave for Chicago Sunday afternoon.
"Were the students who took the Missouri examination coached for it?" Dr. Strong was asked.
"In line with the policy of all reputable law schools," he replied, "the University of Kansas School of Law does not in any way coach its students to pass the bar examinations in any state. To a considerable extent bar examinations are based upon local statutes. Such preparation is outside the scope of a law course dealing with fundamental legal principles."
