MOOT COURT CONVENES
Young Lawyers Make Strong
Arguments in Civil Case.
The Moot Court held its regu
lar weekly session Wednesday
night in the law room. C. T.
Graydon, who graduated in law
at Carolina last year, acted as
judge at this session.
An important civil case was
argued by the young lawyers.
The case was, Gerald Sampson,
plaintiff, suing Curtis Bros., de
fendant, for injuries received
while doing some plumbing work
around town hall, the amount
sued for being $5,000. Witness
es appeared for both sides. The
case was tried by a jury, which
decided in favor of the defend
ant. Attorneys for the plaintiff
were Levy and Nicholson; for
defendant Griffith and Horton.
Judge Graydon's charge to the
jury could not well have been ex
celled, and deserves especial
mention.
This is the first time this year
that a case has been tried in the
Moot Court when attorneys for
both sides were juniors. All
made able and logical arguments
in behalf of their clients.
Boys: Messrs. Langston, Ed
munds, Sligh, Farrell, Shuler,
Wilds, Dabbs, Sawyer, L. Ston
ey, W. Stoney, Mills (Big Boy),
Stevens, LaMotte, Edens, War
ing, Dougherty and Heyward
("Slim'')
Especially designed souvenir
programs will be distributed
among the audience on each oc
casion. The matinee Tuesday af
ternoon will be given by special
request for the benefit of chil
dren and ladies who for various
reasons will be unable to attend
the evening entertainments. The'
prices are exceedingly small for
an entertainment of the high
class which this will be and
should give the performers hou:
es to overflowing on each occa
sion of the rendering of this de
lightful musical comedy.
Polka Dot press agents have
skilfully spread the rumor that,
Slim Heyward will positively ap
pear in a purple .ig and green
tights and the ticket sales are
soaring.
