Chief Justice John Marshall made his thlusts while pursuing in odd moments the arts of fashion and cards. His court sat in a small base ment room of the senate. but its l sessions were frightened by the ! frequent presence of beauties of l the day in colorful costume.
 Jefferson Cools Off
 Jefferson was tempted to lay the groundwork of the battle. in this pronouncement of Democratic party (then dubbed Republican, principle:
 ITO make each (of the three i branches of government an ef- fectual check ton the other) it must have a right in cases which arise within the line of it's proper func- tions, where, equally with the others it acts in the last resort and with out appeal, to decide on the valid ity of an act according to it's own 1 judgment and uncontrolled by the opinions of any other department.
 Wasn't that pretty strong?" he must have asked himself.
 At any rate, Jefferson wrote that lsentence into his first address to i congress and then struck it out. Prudent instincts prevailed, and the final draft of the message sly iy said:
 "The judiciary system . will, of course, present itself to the con- temptation of congress-
 Courts Rabbit Punch
 But doughty Chief Justice Mar shall bided his time, then used Q most imposing weapon when he did enter the ring.
 ] Here is what Marshall said in Marberry vs. Madison, a decision which upheld the President in fact, but the Supreme Courts position in the theory:
 Tt is emphatically the province and theory of the judicial depart mept to say what the law is. l Marshal Lands a Blow
 Historians have vied with each other to show that Jeffersons po- litical face turned crimson when he heard those weighty words.
 Historian Warren says it was not that Marshall had held an act of Congress unconstitutional, but had sought to interfere with the ex- ecutive and had proceeded by obiter dicta to deliver lecture to the President :"
 The gong had rung again, and another President had taken the count. But in the next encounter Andrew Jackson showed John Mar shall what it meant to take it on the chin.

J. WASHINGTON HAS MATERIAL,
 TRACK MEETS
Four Husky Stalwarts Ap- pear to Be in Trim
 to Make Marks

SEATTLE, Feb. 23.-For the first time since the balmy days of Her man Erik, Eddie Genung. Steve An derson, and Paul Jessup, the Uni yersity of Washington can look for ward to having one or more of the outstanding track performers on the coast or possibly in the nation dur ing 1887.
 Not since this quartet dominated their events in intercollegiate com- petition from coast to coast has Coach Hec Edmundson produced a top-flight trackman of national caliber. However, with the advent of the coming cinder season, Wash 'ington hopes ride high on four Husky stalwarts-Vic Palmason, Art Morgan, Bruce Humber, and Cap tain Jimmy Angle.
 HeadlinerS
 Headlining the Purple's parade which will go into the time-trial stages as practice progresses this north, is straw-thatched laconic Vic Palmason, brilliant half-milel who promises to hit his highest peak this year, his senior season.
 Only three men in the United States bettered or equalled Palma sons best 880 time during 1886, with only sudden illness prevent ing the slender blond from reach ing the national Olympic trials at Randalls Island. In Northern Di- vision conference competition. Pal mason lowered Eddie Genung's for mer record, stepping 880 yards ip 1:53.6 to dominate the northwest field.
 But it was in the revival of the Coast Conference meet at Los An geles, that he showed flash of the tremendous speed and stamina lie carries in his pipestem pins as he lost heartbreaking race to South Eern California's Ross Bush.

 A Presbyterian missionary's son, Landis wts born in Japan but edu- cated principally in America. He has been called the most bril- liant graduate of Harvard Law School since Justice Louis D. Bran deis' and this year will succeed his former teacher, the famous Dean Roscoe Pound.

Wall street was uneasy when he became a member of the Securi- ties Commission, knowing that he had written most of the new law and had kept it's teeth sharp on it's long journey through Congress. But by 1885, when he was named Chair man of the Commission to succeed Joseph P Kennedy. some of his staunchest champions were Wall street operators.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-Seven presidents have entered the poli- tical prize ring against the Su- preme Court ahead of Franklin D. Roosevelt.
 Three won their tussles by knock cut blows, and the Supreme Court has, delivered the same number of haymakers. One setto was a draw
 Unfailingly the opposing con- tenders have accused each other of invading governmental territory belonging to somebody else. His torians agree this is quite natural in a governmental system involv- ing three coordinate branches.
 The Real Issue
 The issue often has boiled down to the question whether the Su- preme Court has the right of ju- dicial review over acts of con- gress. In other words: Who's got the final say-so?'
 The inevitable conflicts began while the United States was still in swaddling clothes as nation under President Washington.
 The general had hardly declared American neutrality in the war between France and Ergiand in 1793 before legal piracy began on the high seas.
 Hamilton Snubbed
 American privateersmen indulg- ing in this naval sport found them- selves on trial before American courts, and President Washington asked the Supreme Court to lay down few rules of international etiquette Getting Alexander Ham ilton to frame 29 questions on in- ternational law, the President sub mitted them to the high tribunal only to receive a rather neat snub.
 we must respectfully decline, ; the court said in effect.
 Says Historian Charles Warren of this incident:
 By declining to express an opin- ion except in a case duly litigated before it, the court established it. self as a purely judicial body; and its success /. has followed it's ad- herring to this exclusive method of deciding questions of law and of constitutionality of statutes

 Has Good Marks His marks of 9.6 for the century and 21.3 for the 220, do not repre- sent the best efforts of which Hum Der is capable according to Hec E,dmundson who expects the slim blond to reach new heights this year. Before he can claim the hon. ors for which many believe he is headed, Humber must conquer such stellar competition as California's s Mushy Pollock and George Ander- son, George Boone of U.SC., and Ray Kneubuhl of Stanford.
 Completing the big four of the Husky track and field array, Caps tain Jimmy Argle, former state high school champion, looms as one of the finest milers Edmundson has ever produced. Two years ago, as a sophomore, Angle stepped beau- tiful 4:19 which sent the experts into rhapsodies of praise. Last sea- son, however, his best effort was 4.21 and he finished third to War ren Dixon of Stanford and George Scharpf of Oregon in the coast meet. But Hec is hopeful. Angle, under the proper stimulus, has the ability to clip seconds from his best time and may be due for sen- sational season.

within an eyelash of nipping the touted Trojan at the tape. As it was, Bush won in 1:52.7, a new coast record, with Palmason so close that both were clocked in identical time. Following the race, the use. star was carried from the field while Palmason was still comparatively fresh.
 This season the pair will doubt less clash again in the coast classic with the Husky ace this time primed for revenge. A win here would prac- tically cinch a trip to the national intercollegiate for Palmason where he would face such men as Johnny Woodruff of Pitt, Olympic games star, and Charlie Beetham, the sen- sational Ohio State runner.
 Coming Prodigy =
 Art Morgan, the second of Ed mundson's coming prodigies has a different situation to face than has Palmason. As a mere sophomore last year, the tall timber topper with the greyhound build, stepped the 120-yard high hurdles in IA, | two -tenths of second from the world record, and negotiated the 220 lows in 23.6, another confer ence record.
 1 As a result, Morgan was too high Fly built-up for the actual experi- -ence he possessed, and against the classy field of California murders he did not perform so well. Tom Moore of California. and Roy Staley of use. both defeated Morgan, with the Husky ace beating Sammy Klopstock of Stanford in the in- door meet at Seattle.
 Can't Touch Him l In the coming campaign, Morgan has the same field of competition to face, with Leroy Kirkpatrick of San Mateo Jr. College, Moore of California, and Cope and Staley lof use. heading the list. In the Northern Division, there is no hurdler who can touch him. With the breaks and with continued im- provement, Art Morgan may devel- op into another Steve Anderson. Seasoning is all he needs. The surprise package of Edmund sons '36 edition was Bruce Humber, scholarly : looking, Canadian born sprinter. who went to Berlin as an Olympic Games competitor after enjoying only fair collegiate sea- son.
 Racing under Canada's colors, Humber reached semi-final heat before being eliminated. With the experience gained by competing with the worlds leading dash men, Humber is the third member of the Washington quartet of potential
