MOOT COURT FOUND
POPULAR IN SCHOOL
National University Admits
240 Students to
practice"

Actual court practice of the kind
which the law school moot court" pro-
vides has become one Of the most popu-
lar forms Of legal training, 1t was dis
closed last week at National University
where a survey In that institution
showed that twice as many jury cases
had been tried by student lawyers this
year than during 1929.
According to the university officials,
this tremendous increase In law school
court" activity in that one institution
alone is attributable to the almost daily
press comment on crowded court dockets
throughout the United States.
National University admitted 240
student lawyers to practice in its moot
court during the Fall and Winter terms
this year as concrete indication of the
desire law students of today have to be
as thoroughly trained in court pro-
cedure as possible when they are gradu-
ated. With such large practicing
field, Prof. Glen Willett OF the National
law faculty who presides as moot court
Judge, tried twice as many jury cases
this year as he handled throughout the
academic years of 192S-29.
Prof. Willett's court report figures
show that actually 469 cases were filed
for trial; 323 motions were argued and
disposed Of. and large number Of
ing the Spring term which begins to-
morrow. The coming term will be
marked at this institution by moot
court practice in equity, probate and
appeals court work.
James D. Herman and Stacy M. Reed
were chosen by Judge" Willett as the
best moot court trial lawyers during the
past term, In the Anal Jury trial of
the Winter term, Herman represented
the Government and Reed was defense
counsel.
Spring term classes will open through
National tomorrow.
The repeal of the Jones flve-and-ten
law will be the subject Of debate in the
preliminarieS for the selection of the
third interclRss debate teams next
Saturday night. The meet will be held

GOVERNOR PUTS 0. K.
ON DRIVE TO STOP
DARYING BY STATE
Says He Is in Sympathy With
Lions Club Protest Against
Sales by Commonwealth

A study of the use of oleomargarine
and other butter substitutes in state
institutions is under way, with a view
toward their elimination, Governor
Shafer said today.
Commenting on the action of the
Bismarck Lions club protesting
against the sale of dairy products by
the state and use of butter substitutes
in state institutions, Governor Shafer
said his administration is in sympathy
with this action
He declared a study of the situa-
ton had been undertaken some time
ago In the hopes that substitutes could
be eliminated from use In state in
situations, without causing any deficit
in the operation expenses.
In the case of the state peniten-
tiary, the governor said, use of butter
substitutes has been found necessary
to keep within the budget allowed by
the legislature. Should the legislature
appropriate sufficient money to buy
equipment to handle surplus dairy
products, he believed the prison would
not have to sell its surplus. This
would also lead to an elimination of
substitutes in feeding prisoners
The local Lions club at their meet
ing Monday moved to abolish COM
petition of state institution diaries
with legitimate dairymen. Protests
were voiced against the system at the
state prison where surplus milk and
cream is sold, and oleomargarine pur-
chased.

Demands Education as Proper Test
For Entrance Into Political Life

University, Va. Aug. 12.-R-Will
Durant, New York author, told the
Virginia institute of public affairs to-
day there was no way out Of the
domination of political life in the
United States by men of third-rate
ability, except to make education a
qualification for public office.
In his address on lis democracy a
failure?" Mr.. Durant asserted the
final breakdown of democracy ap-
peared in the increasing insecurity of
life in u cities, where political ma
chimes were in league with the world
OF crime and in the inability of con-
gress to face the complex economic
problems confronting it every day."
Il should like to see in all our great
universities. schools of public admin
istration in which students would be
prepared as specifically and technical
ly for the tasks Of government as they
are now prepared for medicine, for
engineering and law: and no n
should be eligible to municipal office
unless he had received such training"

First M Clusky Wheat
Is Grading as No. 2

McClusky, N. D., Aug. 12.-Felds
of Marquis hard spring wheat in dis
tricts south and southeast of Nc
Clusky are yielding from 81 to 10
bushels ar acre.
New wheat has been brought to To-
cal elevators during the week, one
firm reporting a full carload up to
Wednesday. Wheat marketed to date
has all been No. 2 grade, on the aver
age 81 pounds to the bushel. No No.
! has been received. The new Mar
quis has good color but kernels are
shrunken.
It is believedN that crop conditions,
in 20 far as wheat is concerned, will
be similar to those Of last year, in
that all wheat from south Of town
graded below No. l, while virtually all
of that from the territory north of
town graded No. l.
The grain brought to McClusky
elevators this week was threshed by
both combines and threshers, hence
the weight Of the grain may be an &C.
curate indication of the weights of the
remainder to be threshed.
Carl j. and Fred VAIL, Andrew
Beck and John Senior were among
the first to thresh wheat this year.
There has been. some movement of
last years wheat surplus during the
past two weeks. Several farmers who
have been holding wheat have sold
in order to get ready money for their
present harvest needs.
