Carpenter announced that he

testimony regarding acts of the

mony from the record.
With this stipulation agreed
upon, Needer began his testi-
mony, while the defense objected
to each question and answer con-

RESIGNS TO

HEAD OF STATE UNIVERSITY
LAW SCHOOL WILL BECOME
CANDIDATE ON PROGRESS
SIVE PLATFORM.
vermillion, S. D.-Dean Thomas

Vermillion, S. D.-Dean Thomas
Sterling Of the law school Of the uni
versity of South Dakota, rendered
his resignation to the board CT re-
gents yesterday, to take effect with
the end Of the present school year.
He resigns in order to make the pri-
mary race for the United States
Senate to succeed Senator Robert j.
Gamble. The resignation was ac-
copied with many expressions of re-
greet by the regents.
In conversation this morning,
Dean Sterling frankly stated that he
expected to be a candidate for the
Senate, but said that no formal an
nouncement of his candidacy would
he made until he had formally sew
cred his connection with the univer-
sity. At that time, he said, he
would make the announcement, to-
gether with a declaration Of his po-
litical PRINCIPLES.
Rated as a Progressive.
Dean Sterling is rated as a pro-
gressive republican. In fact, he said
himself this morning that his SYM
pathies were with the progressive
wing of the party, but beyond that
he expressed a wish to delay making
any statement of his views for the
time being. 1t is expected however.
that his candidacy will command a
strong progressive following.
1t is regarded as Gel tain that Sen
ator Gamble will make the ace for
reelection. Elected as the result of a
combination with the p~rogressives
the last time, Senator Gamble has
voted almost uniformly with the
standpatters in the Senate. 1t is pos
eible however, that Congressman
Charles H. Burke, Of Pierre, may be
the regular %standpat. candidate.
Dean Sterling's Services.
Dean Sterling has been at the
head of the law department of the
University of South Dakota from the
foundation of the school, and under
him have graduated hundreds of
members of the South Dakota bar,
with whom he is universally popular.
He began his work under many els
couragements, but the school has
constantly grown in importance until
1t now ranks second to no western
school of law. Twenty of his alumni
are now holding important offices in
South Dakota, among them Attorney
General Royal C.. Johnson and sew
eral district judges.
