By FREDDI LOEWENBERG
Law is taught in England pri-
marily as an undergraduate sub-
ject, according to Prof. Frederick
H. Lawson of Oxford University.
The English barrister, in Ann
Arbor to give a series of lectures,
noted several differences in legal
eudcations offered in the two
countries. He said that there are
no regular graduate law schools
as'in America but that the would-
be la.wyer serves as an apprentice
to learn his trade.
A SQLICITOR, who takes care
of the "business end" of the law,
has to serve, three years "in arti-
cles" after completing his school-
ing, he explained. Those without
undergraduate work have to serve
five years, according to Prof. Law-
son.
In contrast, a barrister who is
a specialist, needs a year "in
chambers" studying the law un-
der the guidance of a lawyer, the
attorney said.
The English separate the practi-
cal aspect from the academic, he
said. Englishmen do not study tax
or patent law in school but obtain
this knowledge from practical ex-
perience.
Players Group
To Meet Today
Student Players will hold its sec-
and general meeting of the semes-
ter at 7:30 p.m. today . In the
League.
Composed t students who are
interested in play production as
an avocation rather than a vo-
cation, the group considers itself
in a distinctive position.
"We're interested in the theater
as entertainment," Jim Brodheaft
'54, president of Student Players
said, "not as education." Studept
Players has opportunities for work
in acting as well as in stage work.
Next production of Student
Players will be -decided at today's
meeting. All those interested in
working on the production must
be present, according to Brod-
head.
City Seeks Action
On Buildingr Issue
Ann Arbor's city council decid-
ed late Monday night to get down
to legal brass tacks on the several
months old controversy involving
building permit fees for the new
senior high school and the new
Courthouse.
The council instructed the city
attorney to attempt through dis-
cussion with Board of Education
and Washtenaw county attorneys
to reconcile the existing difference
of opinion of the groups. If this
remains a stalemate he is to obtain
a declaratory judgement from the
courts on the questions at issue.
Hutchins To Speak
Lee Hutchins, president of a
Grand R a p i d s pharmaceutical
firm, will address members of the
Pharmaceutical Association at the
student branch of the Ameri-
can Pharmaceutical Association at
7:30 p.m. today in the League.
In undergraduate work, a simple
exam is given after half year to
determine whether the student is
qualified to continue in law. The
remaining exams are not given un-
til the third year.

TURNING to differences in the
two legal systems, Prof. Lawson

in England no brief is submitted,
but oral argument is used.
