Another Mem Hall tradition is Mr. Test When you take your first Mem Hall exam you will see him; a rotund man, his bald pate rimmed by electro-shock curly hair, a bottle of soda surgically grafted to his hand and his mellifluous bass vice oozing out of the corners of the giant mead hall in which exams are given...

Now, however, a determined posse of federal and state officials have mounted a strenuous effort to rein in the freewheeling Ritter. The U.S. Attorney for Utah, Ramon Child, last month filed an unprecedented petition with the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Tenth Circuit, demanding Ritter's disqualification from any case involving the Federal Government. Last week Utah Attorney General Robert Hansen filed a similar plea for all cases involving his state. In Washington, the Senate has authorized an admittedly superfluous third...
