Court Comment

Atty Gordon was at his best
in the rape and incest cases as a
pleader, and scored heavily in all
the other cases he was in. His
pleading is along the lines of
good sold horse sense, and al
ways effective.
Atty Col. in the cases he was
iH, showed his usual acumen in
his own moves aud in anticipat-
ing the moves of his opponent in
the case.
His examination and cross OK
animation of witnesses is always
careful, painstaking, and clever,
bringing out every material fact
possible for his client; and his ar
guments in pleading are always
along the same lines. Atty Cole
is fast coming to the front as a
first-class lawyer.
About all that needs to be
said, of Attorney Alberti at
this time is that C won his
cases. When a man wins his
cases he has done what he is
hired to do, whether he is on the
right side or on the wrong side.
Attorney Gordon paid Alberti a,
high compliment when he said
he was the best with witnesses
he had ever seen. In the rape
case, however, the feeling was
that he won his case by his cleav-
er pleading. The facts are that
when the best of them beat AL
berti, either in a law case or in a
game of checkers, they've get
something to boast about.
We are sorry Deputy District
Attorney Merrill was not able to
take an active part in the pro-
ceedings to help enliven things,
and hope by another year 8 court
he will have entirely recovered
fro-o his nervous affection.

Some at the Crystal theater next
Tuesday light as produced by the
students of the university for while
1t is an amateur production, il will be
amateur only in that the players are
working for the athletic association
of their Alma Mater. As regards the
merits of the performance they will
put on the smoothness with which the
play will be produced, it will he up
to the average of professional per-
Torrance. This fact, coupled with
the opportunity Of presenting the
funniest comedy ever written for coll
legians, insures one Of the most pre-
tentious productions ever attempted
locally.
The scene of the play Is a New
Mexico cattle ranch. The characters
are cowpunchers and boys and girls
from Stanford, Yale and Smith. The
action of the play hinges around a
foot race which has been framed by
the punchers of the Flying Heart
ranch where the collegians are visit
ing to win back from the Centipede
punchers an Echo photograph which
the latter won some time before when
Humpy Joe of the Flying Heart was
defeated by Skinner, the cook of the
Centipede, in a crooked race. Hum

he kept right on running and never
came back Speed" Yale, who cam
not run fast enough TO keep warm,
in order to make hit with one of
the girls who is "just crazy about
athletes" touts himself as a foot rum

bluff and give him to understand that
il is a case of win and die. much to

raw meat and eggs and give him ice
