THE CARDINAL
Vol. XXXID, No. 20 UNIVERSITY OF LOUISVILLE, LOUISVILLE 8, KENTUCKY March 16, 1962
Moot ColJ,rt Competition Dr. Kenneth Kindlesperger
To Be Held On March 19 Named Dean Of Kent School
Three judges Will Listen To Arguments ~
The annual Freshman Moot
Court Competition of the Univer­sity
of Louisville Law School will
begin Monday, March 19, in both
the day and night divisions of the
school. The final argument be­tween
the winning teams of the
two divisional tournaments will
be held on Sunday, April 1, at
2:00 in the Allen Courtroom.
The Spring Moot Court, re­quired
of all freshmen, is a round­robin
tournament in which fresh­men
are given the same problem
to prepare in teams for a mock
court trial. In the final argument
between the division winners,
three judges chosen from the
Kentucky Court of Appeals, the
Federal District Courts, and the
Federal Circuit Court in Cincin­nati
are asked to preside. Federal
Judge Henry Brooks of the Wes­tern
District of Kentucky will be
one of the judges this year. In
the division tournaments o n e
faculty member, one junior or
sep.ior Law student, and one prac­ticing
attorney serve as judges.
Moot Court keys are awarded
to the winners and runners-up in
both divisions. An award is pre­sented
to the students presenting
the best written briefs in both
divisions and to the winners and
runners-up in the over-all compe­tition.
The problem this year concerns
a man (A) who represents him­self
to the owner of an art gallery
(B) as the agent for a third man
(C). A buys a picture from Bon
the supposed authority of C. A
then drives off with the picture
but is killed in an automobile
accident in which the picture is
destroyed. B then sues C for the
price of the picture. C says he
will not pay since A did not actu­ally
have authority to buy the
picture.
According to Allen Weis, presi­dent
of the Moot Court, the com­petition
is designed to introduce
freshmen to research work and to
help them learn to "think on their
feet"-to present a case. Since it
is an exercise in debating, it does
not matter, according to Weis,
that all the students have the
same problem and must present
essentially the same arguments.

exciting and history-making."
