"Lawyer" Contributors Have Articles Printed The Notre Dame Law School can be very proud of the record it has attained. Within the past year, four of its mem­ bers, three students and one professor, have been honored by having articles w-hich they A\T:ote republished in Current Legal Thought. Their articles first ap­ peared in the Notre Dame Lawyer, the student edited and managed publication of law reviews and treatises. The Lawyer is typical of the 100 or so law magazines from which Current Legal Thought se­ lects articles to be digested and repub­ lished. These selections are first sub­ jected to severe scrutiny, and have to' excell in correctness aiid subject matter. The most recent of the four articles that were republished was written by James H. Neu, who received his degree last May. His treatise dealt wdth the rights of a copyright owner. Articles by Professor William D. RoUison, a mem­ ber of the N. D. law^ faculty since 1930, and John H. Verdonk, '42, and another student appeared in earlier issues. The Current Legal Thought is widely President-elect Rud holds St. Mary's et al., spell-bound. Coach Coyne Issues Call For Varsity Debaters Tryouts for the Notre Dame varsity debate team will be held shortly after school re-opens in January, Mr. William Coyne, professor of economics and var­ sity debate coach, announced this week. Any student wishing to give a speech in the trials must turn in his name to Mr. Coyne, or any member of the speech department at Mr. Coyne's office by Dec. 13. Any undergraduates, including fresh­ men, are eligible. Because of the press of time, the cus­ tom of allowing two speeches in the try- outs will be discarded and each contest­ ant will iDresent but one speech.
