On the G S brochures are application blanks for attending the teacher training programs at Dor­ chester* I hope that you and one other person from the Greenville area will be able to attend the November workshop to be held on November 18-22, Please work with Mrs. Mary Q.

The Legal Defense Fund will pay the legal cost of these cases as well as court costs, but we cannot pay any appeal bonds which is what I gather you were referring to in connection with the $500 discussed in your letter. We do not have a Legal Handbook out but we are in the process of preparing one. It is something that involves a great deal of effort while we must at the same time try all our cases. As to the question concerning a bonding company I do not have the answer but I am referring it to John Pratt of the National Council of Churches who may be able to help in this area although I am not at all certain.

I Introduction The First Amendment, often hailed as the great protector of free expression and speech, has not always meant what it means to us today. Though it boldly prohibits Congress from enacting any law "abridging the freedom of speech," the exact meaning of that phrase has changed over time. The modern First Amendment grants "special protection" to "speech on matters of public concern."' And though the United States Supreme Court recently referred to the First Amendment as "the essence of self-government,"2 such a view * J.D.

PRACTICAL BENEFITS OF LITERATURE IN LAW, AND THEIR LIMITS James L. Robertson* My literature is confined to the effort to make it in the form of judicial decisions, and I occasionally manage to slip a phrase past the negative vigilance of my brethren. - 0. W. Holmes to Lewis Einstein (1914) I. INTRODUCTION AND OVERVIEW The job description for a good judge should include "the wisdom of Solomon, the patience of Job and the humanity of Shakespeare." 2 Many do not always understand the humanity component. At best we sense it least, but this is like not sensing how our lives would be lacking if all music had ended with Mozart, if we never had Beethoven's odd number symphonies, Wagner or the great Russians among whom only Tchaikovsky is appreciated appropriately. Or if baseball had remained in the Dead Ball Era, so that we celebrated only the glories of Cy Young and Ty Cobb and Honus Wagner. Or if we had nothing beyond Newtonian physics with which to understand and explore the natural world, or could see only what Galileo could see of the wonders of the Universe.

Gemmette: Law and Literature: Joining the Class Action LAW AND LITERATURE: JOINING THE CLASS ACTION ELIZABETH VILLIERS GEMMETTE" When once the itch of literature comes over a man, nothing can cure it but the scratching of a pen. 1 Samuel Lover I. INTRODUCTION: THE WHERE, WHAT, AND WHY OF LAW AND LrrERATURE When my first article on law and literature was published in 1989,2 it did not occur to me that I would once again undertake another survey related to the same topic, although I had noted that "the itch of literature" was upon many law professors' minds and that there was much "scratching of [the] pen."' Yet, when I was asked by several law school professors and one liberal arts college professor whether I would consider updating my earlier work, I must confess that I found myself wondering whether the pen-scratching spiders were now revealing their "curious" wares to more flies and whether they were making the parlour a more "habitable" place.4 In an attempt to determine which law schools offered some version of a law and literature course within the law school curriculum in 1987, questionnaires were sent to 175 American Bar Association accredited institutions, and the , Union College (B.S., 1979); College of St.

  • Chapter Two Genesis the Creation of the Clergy Consultation Service
    Chapter Two Genesis The Creation of the Clergy Consultation Service The Clergy Consultation Service on Abortion was conceived at a luncheon on September 6, 1966.Larry Lader met with three ministers interested in the abortion issue: two Episcopal priests, John Krumm of New York and Lester Kinsolving of San Francisco, and Howard Moody, a Baptist minister from Greenwich Village's Judson Memorial Church. The ministers asked Lader what they could contribute to his abortion rights campaign, and he replied, "Start with the women. Organize the clergy to refer women to qualified doctors. II Though the abortion issue was a pre-planned topic of conversation, a clergy referral service was not. "I had no idea what [the ministers] wanted [to do]." recalls Lader. "The clergy service probably just popped into my head at lunch that day." This seminal meeting has faded from Moody's memory, but he wrote that "out of Lader's encouragement was born the first concept of what later would become the Clergy Consultation Service on Abortion."! The fortuitous consequence of Lader's lunch meeting on September 6 was not only the birth of the clergy referral movement, but the drafting of Howard Moody into the growing ranks of abortion activists. Lader and Moody were not strangers to each other in 1966,and though neither of them can remember exactly how they met, Lader speculates that they probably became acquainted through Democratic reform politics. Lader remembers their relationship as an inevitability, as though two such members of New York's City's elite circle of progressives would necessarily be acquainted prior to any significant collaboration.
