...house lights dim, a pit orchestra plunges into the overture, the curtain goes up-and then? Well, what follows cannot be properly called a movie musical.

Precious Commodity. Though local bar associations often take an initially dim view of such efforts, the idea that law students should emulate medical students' intern training has now been accepted in varying degrees in Colorado, Florida, Michigan, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York and Wyoming. In Massachusetts, the state's highest court has authorized law students to appear in lower courts and to defend indigents in cases involving less than 2½ years' imprisonment. At Boston University, law students now get classroom credit for courtroom practice in Roxbury, a predominantly Negro slum where 70% of defendants...
