POLLOCK, WILSON WIN IN AMES COMPETITION

Marking a climax in the winter activities of the Law School, the Pollock and Wilson Law Clubs reached the semi-final round of the Ames competition. The other four teams will vie for the remaining semi-final positions next week.

The Wilson club, represented by Robert D. Blaster 2L, and Robert C. Vincent 2L, defeated the Marshall Club team, composed of William W. Foshay 2L and Samuel Spencer 2L in the first quarter-final match last Tuesday, with Justice Fred T. Field '03, of the Massachusetts Supreme Court acting as chief justice. Charles S. Maddock 2L and Martin A. Jurow 2L, of the Pollock Club reached the semi-finals by virtue of a victory over Henry H. Rightor 2L and Malcolm L. Munroe 2L, of the Bryce Club, with Justice John C. Crosby of the Massachusetts Supreme Court presiding.

The eight clubs in the quarter-finals reached this position by gaining the greatest number of points in a series of matches among the 30 clubs in the Law School. The penultimate arguments are held during the spring, and the survivors meet in the final round next year. The winning club will receive a prize of $300 and the runner-up will get $200.

The competition, financed from a fund left by the late Dean Ames, gives law students their only chance to argue actual cases, and lasts three years for those who reach the final round.
