Jurists Dedicate New Book to Dean Pound

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

Eminent jurists from all over the world have contributed to a book published this month in honor of the 75th birthday of Roscoe Pound, University Professor and former Dean of the Law School. "A man's head swells a little under such circumstances," said Dean Pound yesterday, adding that the book contains the writings of "some of the biggest names in the science of law in the world."

Entitled "Interpretations of Modern Legal Philosophies," the volume was planned for publication at a birthday dinner in October, 1945, but because of the war, its appearance was held up until now.

Among the former students and friends with contributions in the book are former Pound pupil Julius Stone of the University of Sydney and Lord Wright, Chairman of the U. N. War Crimes Commission, called the "greatest of the judges in England today," by Dean Pound.
