Henderson daily dispatch. (Henderson, N.C.) 1914-1995, 1936-12-17

Durham, Dec. 17-"Those who i'm
agine that prohibition is the law in
North Carolina are mistaken" said
DR.. Ralph w. Mcdonald at Duke uni
.versity this week. The well-known
educator, who was candidate for gov
ernor in TIE last Democratic primary
and who is now studying law at the
University of North Carolina, spoke
before a meeting of the Duke Bar as
ISOLATION.
There was time, only few years
ago, when prohibition was very nearly
the law in the state, because public
opinion in overwhelming preponder-
ance supported the principle of pro-
hibition," he continued; "but certain
ly in many, many sections of the state
prohibition is not law today, and no
statute can make it law.
There is but one residence of the
law: the hearts of the people, col
lectively considered. There is but one
final authority for deciding the law
the thinking and beliefs of the people.
The true law is not written in court
reports, codes of law, or even in con-
stitutions."
Appraising the present status of
legal education, Macdonald stated
that "there is much to justify the re-
spect and commentator of the lay
man. Three things in particular I

Will OF People Is Law
Saws Mcdonald At Duke

shall like to mention with approval:
Cd the movement to elevate the
standards of the bar by means of high
er training standards and more string
ent admission requirements, (2) the
greater emphasis upon ethical con-
siderations, and 90 the development
of an attitude of self-cr.ticism on the
part of the bar"
The speaker also pointed to some
of the weaknesses Of present=day le-
gal education. Logan education he
said, lis in danger of burying justice
undo a maze of rules, technicalities,
statutes, restatements, and decisions.
Xxx AS a layman, fear that the law,
as it is being taught and learned, is
losing somewhat of it's synonymity

GRID STAR TO FIGHT
BurIy Bouts
Slated For
Arena Tonite

Albert Amador, husky
CCC middleweight champion
and former Calexico foot
ball star, will enter the ring
against Bert Birmingham,
colorful Brawley fighter, tonight
determined to uphold the eputa-
ton OF his camp.
The winner of ;onight's main
event will be given a crack at
Herman Graves in the main event
next Friday night. Birmingham,
who has shown vast Improvement
in his last three fights, has been
angling for a chance at the I'm
perial Valley champion for sew
eral weeks and is rarin' to get al
Amador, the only obstacle in the
path to a crack at the Negro.
From the opening bell fans will
witness a knock down dragout
fight-a fight that may eclipse
any match ever staged in the El
Centro arena. Both fighters are
in perfect condition, pack a devas-
tating punch and are first class
mixers.
Willard Big Boy" Hogue is out
TO kill two birds with one punch
in tonights semi-final. Hogue is
anxious to k.o. his opponent, Tuffy
Loudermilk, for personal reasons
and at the same time regain his
laurels lost when he dropped a
close decision to Joe Garcia two
weeks ago.
Loudermilk has been training
for the Hogue match for more than
a month and is prepared to put up
the fight Of his life in an attempt
to knock over the clever twin.
Shorty Hogue, a youngster who
can always be counted on to put
up a great fight, will meet Braw-
ley's baby Joe Louis, Cleo Shans,
in a match that will truly test the
prowess of the undefeated Hogue
twin.
Dale Cooper, tall, lanky Holtville
lightweight, will meet Ivan Lewis
in the fifth match on the card.
Cooper gave Lewis a boxing lesson
last week but Lewis made an out
standing showing and may be able
to reverse the decision tonight.

And even if he did, and 1 found
out about it, where would I. take
my ticket to be cashed? had no
idea of the odds on my selection
and I knew absolutely nothing
about his past performances. For
all I knew he might be milk
horse in a field of stake runners.
In short I represented mother
ignorance as I stood there, cash in
hand
The fact that my tout was able
to maneuver me there SO quickly
was no credit to my basic wit
content. He spoke no English
and his features, while plenti-
full, were a bit short of being
informative. He backed up his
gesticulating by pointing to para
graphs of my program but the
writing was as unintelligible to
me as hieroglyphics written i'm
pig Latin.
The paragraphs undoubtedly were
pregnant with meaning but I'll
copy few lines and let you see
for yourself why they left me cold.
Here is one batch of writing he was
particularly enthused about: AZ

1t looked even worse than that in
the paragraph for my typewriter
hasn't the necessary gadgets to put
all the little swallows, sparroWs,
flying fish, flotsam, jetsam and
general debris over the letters that
Hungarians do.
1 finally rid myself of the tout
by the stern measure of giving him
a fistful of pengoes and filters
and went in to see Hozomany The
Second run his race. That name
was given him by doting parents
for he was no where near secod at
the finish. He was about seventh
after having been held off the
pace as my old friend Paul Hirten-
stein OF the Chicago Daily News
would say for too long a time.
ToutIess 1 went about and made
a study of Hungarian betting by
myself. Betting is of two kinds
