K.U. LAW SCHOOL FINALLY EXPOSED- Photographically, that is
Last week as Jimmy Green patted his persevering student on the shoulder, old timers on the campus noticed that he was a little more self conscious than usual. And well he should have been. For Jimmy and the institution he symbolizes, the University of Kansas Law School, were the targets for the eager lenses of the Sixth Annual K.U. Photojournalism Short Course, held on the campus Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
The action began last Thursday morning as the student section of the short course converged on the Law Building to focus on all facets of the School of Law, from the new dean (below) to a student snoring his right of privacy away in the law lounge. The best pictures from the student assignment are printed on this page and page four of this supplement.
Thursday afternoon the professionals arrived on campus to attack the law fraternity from another angle. This action centered around the county court room Thursday evening as students of the law school staged a mock trial for the benefit of the photo professionals.
It gave the pros a chance to practice up on their court room shooting—and manners—as part of their national campaign to open up the courts of the land to the unobtrusive candid camera. The results of the mock trial—which gave the neophyte lawyers a chance to observe the photographers in action—are displayed on pages two and three of the supplement.
