" If B
University of Nebraska fresh
man and junior law students,
composing 106 teams in all, will
act as attorneys in appellate cases
in the law school's fourth annual
Moot Court competition which
opens at 3:30 p. m. Monday.
Twenty-eight freshmen teams
and five junior teams will be act
ing as lawyers for every type of
defendant ranging from an ac
cused murderer to a dismissed
school teacher seeking reinstate -
mcnt.
First argument to be he.ard in
the beginning session of the
"mock court" will be by students
. Joe Vosoba and R. Steinacher, at
torneys for the fictitious "Arturo
Valentino," found guilty of mur
dering his sweetheart after she
rejected his proposal of marriage.
Down Town Judges
Vosoba and Steinacher, com
posing one of the 10 junior teams
who will participate in the pro
ceedings this week, will match
wits with the state's prosecuting
student attorneys, G. Stahl and
R. Moodie. Three downtown Lin
coln lawyers, Julius Hopkins,
Royce Harper and Bob McNutt,
will "sit in" as judges of the case
and hand down the appellate
court's decision.
Valentino, ''the man, who when
his sweetheart refused to marry
him, pointed a gun to his head
and said, 'There is nothing to live
for.' " was charged with first de
gree murder. Student attorneys
Vosoba and Steinacher will argue
that the girl, fearing his suicide
attempt, reached for the gun and
was accidentally shot in the en
suing struggle.
File Briefs.
Both "attorneys'' have filed
pleadings in the form of a brief,
which cites the points upon which
the appeal is based, and discusses
them.

by student "attorneys"' J. Jones
and H. Schwartz, arguing against
another team composed of D. L.
Brock and W. D. Blue.
"Judges" for the case of "Wil
liam F. Malsh vs. Garrard Glen"
will be Don Krocger, John Bin
ning and Dick Harnsberger, all of
Lincoln. This case involves an in
surance difficulty on a $50,000
cheese factory which burned
down.
Written By Board
Both cases, as are all others on
docket to be argued between
Monday and Thursday in junior
competition of the court, were
prepared and written- by members
of the Board of Advisors, super
vising the Moot Court.
