been trying, to hold onto "C" zon-

Their attorney, Rosco 0. Boni-
steel, Jr., said he could not state
whether or not the firm would go.
to court because he had not had a
chance to consult with them. City
officials said they expect court ac-

An ordinance passed last year,
entailing the same zoning pattern,
was taken into federal district
court by the firm and declared
"null and void," by Judge Thomas
P. Thornton.

Councilman Bent F. Nielsen,
who voted for the plan, said he
did so to help clear the matter up,
but foreseeing further court steps,
said he did not share City Attor-
ney Jacob Fahrner's optimism that
the city would win.
"I don't think we have as good
a chance: to win at he thinks,"
Nielsen said.
Ffhrner said he did not want
the council to think that he was
"glowing with optimism," but that
on the other hand if he felt the
city's chances in court were not
good, he would have told them so.
Before the Council meeting
there had been indications that
final council action on the latest
zoning ordinance would be held
over again to enable further acti-

However; Councilman James F.
Brinkerhoff, who moved that the
measurebe taken off'the table and
moved its passage, said that if a
compromise was reached, a whole
new ordinance and related proce-

Ross L. Malone, president of the
American Bar Foundation, has re-
cently announced the appointment
of Prof. E. Blythe Stason, dean of
the Law School, as administrator
of the foundation after Dean Sta-
son retires next year.
In his new post, Dean Stason
will act as chief executive officer
in charge of research activities and
library services.
The Foundation is a division of
the American Bar Association, a
national org9nization with a mem-
bership of 100,000. Headquarters
are in the American Bar Center in
Chicago.

Has Potentialities
Dean Stason said the Founda-
tion, which began operations in
1955, has important potentialities
of leadership in connection with
improvements in the administra-
tion of justice in the United States.
"It is an especial privilege to be
able to work closely with the Foun-
dation and its professional activi-
ties, particularly since the organi-
zation. is still in ,its formative
stages. Careful planning at this
time will help to develop an insti-
tution of great public value and
influence," Dean Stason said.
During 1919 to 1923, Dean Stason
was an assistant professor of elec-
trical engineering while he studied
law and received in 1922 the degree
of Juris Doctor from the Univer-
sity.
From 1922 to 1924, he practiced
law in Iowa, became law professor
in 1924 at the University, served as
provost of the University from 1938
to 1944, and has been dean of the
law school since 1939.
'Recognized Leader'
Malone said "Dean Stason is a
recognized national leader in legal
education and research. His quali-
fications are ideal for the post he
has consented to assume. We are
confident that under his leadership
and direction the American Bar
Foundation's program of research
in many fields of law affecting
both the profession and the public
will grow in scope and usefulness."
The Dean has been chairman of
the research committee of the
foundation for the last two years.
He is interested in the new field
of atomic energy law and recently
headed a special American Bar As-
sociation committee which drafted
proposed federal legislation on
peaceful atomic development. Con-

gress adopted many
tions in the enactm
atomic energy laws.
