FRESH NEWS???? -- OF MOOT COURT TEAH Due to a Fall strike of the New England Hay Turners the Pony Express Stations between Ann Arbor and the Atlantic Coast have been suffering from a serious fuel shortage. Horses having been supple­mented by Inca runners from Mexico, the express service has finally delivered to our office the results of the National Moot Court Finals held in New York during Christmas vacation. The Michigan squad drew a by in the first round of the finals; and then met and defeated t.Jashington University and S.M. U. before losing a split decision to the eventual winners, N.Y.U., in the semi-final round. Thus the team fj_nished t,.:i:-:-d in the orals. On the briefs, which were graded separately, Michigan finished second, losing to N.Y.Uo by one point. For their participation in this contest the team was awarded a number of law books which were pre­sented by Dean Smith at a faculty luncheon, March 2, 1962. PHOTO BOOK UNDERWAY The final preparati.ons are being made for the Senior Class Photo, which swept the Res Gestae popularity poll.
