MOCK TRIAL:
Case Club Finalists Picked
* *
By JON SOBELOFF
After four weeks of exacting
preparation and a couple of hours
on their feet presenting arguments
and answering off the cuff ques-
tions fired by a three-man panel
of lawyers and professors, four
Law School juniors last night won
the semi-final round of the Camp-
bell case club competition.
The team of Donn Miller and
Theodore St. Antoine and the
team of Dave Belin and Hugh
Harness will compete April 29 for
the coveted Henry M. Campbell
Plaque in the finals of the annual
Law School contests.
* * *
DEFEATED IN the semi-finals
were the team of William Parmen-
ter and William Vobach and that
of William Lurey and Ray Trom-
badore.
In the imaginary appelate ac-
. tion argued by all four teams,
a big beer company, which had
been granted exclusive TV rights
by a Detroit football team sought
to enjoin a theater from screen-
ing the games and charging ad-
mission.
Acting as judges in the case were
two three-man panels. Phillip A.
Hart, legal assistant to Michigan
Gov. G. Mennen Williams and
former Detroit district attorney;
Harry G. Gault, former persident
of the Michigan Bar Association
and Prof. Russell A. Smith of the
Law School heard the arguments
in one courtroom.
Presiding in the other court-
room were John W. Neville, chief
of the regional anti-trust office in
Detroit; John W. Cummiskey,
member of the board of commis-
sioners of the state bar associa-
tion and Prof. Samuel D. Estep
of the Law School.

the future. Called the Human Re-
lations Area Files, the small five
by eight inch cards may provide a
short cut to valuable information
about almost 150 different cul-
tures of the world.
CRITICAL EXCERPTS from
books concerning particular cul-
tures and observations from field
studies are the chief sources of in-
formation for the files. After the
material has been collected, it is
first translated into English if
necessary, then classified and
finally filed.
Subject matter is diverse. It
may include anything from an
illustrated description of a Jap-
anese funeral to a dissertation
on how Indo-Chinese women
prepare soy beans.
Items telling how certain crops
are grown and the amount of rain-
fall in a given area, facts of great
importance to prospective trav-
elers, can also be found in the
records.
THEdFILES are the product of
three year's work by faculty of 16
universities, all of which are mem-
bers of Human Relations Area
Files, Inc.
Purpose of this corporation
is to organize into manageable
dimensionscultural data on peo-
ples all over the world, accord-
ing to Prof. Robert B. Hall of
the geography department, di-
rector of the project at the Uni-
versity.
Each university participating in
this venture specializes in a cer-
tain area of the world. The Uni-
versityhas been assigned the job
of gathering data on Japan.
FINANCED BY government and
University funds, groups of fac-
ulty members in the social sciences
visit Japan where they make stud-
ies relating to their particular
field.
When completed the file will
serve as a tool for the compara-
tive analysis of different cultures.
College Deans
Plan Meeting
President Harlan H. Hatcher
and deans of the University's 15
colleges will meet with represen-
tatives from Michigan junior col-
leges today in the Union to dis-
cuss teaching methods and .pur-
poses.
More than 100 junior college
representatives will hear Dean
Charles E. Odegaard of the liter-
ary college speak on "Common
Elements in Any College Program."
A. G. Umbreit, director of Mus-
kegon Community College will dis-
cuss "What a University Faculty
Should Know About the Com-
munity College" in a luncheon
address.
Inter-faculty conferences will
be held in the early afternoon to
exchange ideas on teaching meth-
ods and purposes.
Representatives attending the
conference, sponsored by the Com-
mittee on College Relations, will
have an opportunity to visit the
campus from 10 a.m. until noon.
First LS&A
Conference
To Be Held
The first of this semester's ser-
ies of literary college conferences
will be held at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday
at the League.
It is under the direction of the
college's steering committee.
* * *
THE STEERING committee, a
group composed of students in the
literary college interested in prob-
lems concerning the administra-
tive and educational functioning
of the college, is holding the con-
ference in an effort to obtain stu-
dent opinion on academic ques-
tions.
Coordinator of the group's ac-
tivities is Assistant Dean of the
literary college, Prof. James H.
Robertson.
The idea for the steering com-
mittee originated in 1947 when it'
was felt that there was a need for
discussion between interested stu-
dents and faculty on policies of
the college.
* * *
SINCE Dean Robertson took
over the project in the fall of
ered such topics as introductory
ered such topics as introductory
courses, counseling, exam proce-
dure, grading and foreign lang-
uage requirements.
Dean Robertson explained that
the "intention of the conference
is not primarily to affect reforms
but to insure that when changes
are made, the college is fully
aware of the implications and im-
pact of the changes on the stu-
dents, and that the students, in
turn, gain a clearernotion of the
complexity of running a college."
Although the conferences will
again be open to the public, the
committee has sent special invita-
tions to 60 students whom they
think represent a cross-section of
the campus and will give a fair
sampling of student views.
Loan, Banking

Some 200 delegates from Mich-
igan, Ohio and Indiana will meet
here Tuesday for the annual Sav-
ings and Loan Association prob-
lems clinic in the Rackham Amphi-

Concluding the session, Prof.
Paul W. McCracken of the busi-
ness administration school will
discuss "The Business Outlook for

igan Savings and Loan League.
Courthouse Plans
Change Discussed
The County Board of Super-
visors yesterday considered the re-
vision of office space in the pro-
posed new $3,250,000 Courthouse.
Although the outside of, the
building has remained unchanged
from the original specifications,
the sizes of some of the rooms and
the location of several offices have
been changed, according to the
architect.
Embryo architects are in the
process of drawing up plans for
the new bank building on the
corner of E. Liberty and S. Divi-
sion streets.
The designs are part of a class
project in architecture 77 con-
ducted by Prof. George M. Mc-
Gov. William~s

Conkey of the architecture col-
lege. With at least three of the
seven weeks alloted for the draw-.
ings remaining, Prof. McConkey
said he expects some striking
plans to be turned in.
* * *
THE NEW two-story building
which costs an estimated $240,000
is expected to be completed next
fall. A certified architect has done
the actual work on the building,
McConkey said.
"The students are planning
how they would build such a
structure under similar condi-
tions in the future. The new
excavation in town, however,
does give them a practical prob-
lem to solve," Prof. McConkey
commented.
"The would-be architects are
each designing the building as
though he had been engaged to
do so," the professor emphasized,
"and each of them has his own
conception of how the bank should
be constructed."
ALL OF THE plans are being
drawn on standard presentation
sheets, although some of the stu-
dents are making models of their
bank designs.
When the sketches are finally
completed, Prof. McConkey said,
they will be shown to some local
bankers for their opinions.
"All of the students' bank build-
ings will be fireproof and most of
them will be of modernistic de-
sign," he added.
