BRADSHAW TALKS TO FRESHMEN AT CHAPMEETING Advises Them Against Staying Up Too Late at Night Study ing for Examinations. Dean F. F. Bradshaw in ad dressing the freshman chapel group yesterday told them to guard against staying up late at nights in studying for the quarterly examinations. He warned the students that after studying all night they would probably know less about the subject than if they had not studied at all. He ventured that a review of past work would help to keep the subjects fresh in their minds, and suggested that the work of the last two months be divided into fourteen groups so that students might study one of these groups each night until the examinations. Dean Bradshaw told the group some of his own experiences in studying for examinations and advised the students to keep themselves physically fit during the examination periods.

C LAW GROUP LAYS FOUNDATIONS- -FOR NEW STATE CRIMINAL CODE TTniversifv Criminal Lnw Professor an rl SmriA YAimtrpr IVTpTwhorc : r ; " or .North Carolina liar cooperate on Draft to Be Sub mitted to 1931 or 1933 Legislature. By Albert Coates (Professor of Criminal Law and Procedure in the Law School of the University of North Caro lina.) The gradual- development of procedural rules in criminal cases in North Carolina is re corded (I) in statutes scattered through the Session Laws from 1915 to 1929, (2) in decisions scattered through the Reports from Volume 1 in 1797 to Volume 199 now in the press, (3) in the practices of courts and officials which have not found their way into printed pages, but which reflect no less the habitual processes of the law. From time to time digests have been made of the decisions: by Iredell in 1839, Jones in 1854, Battle in 1866, Buzbee in 1880, Walser in 1899, Michie in 1916. From time to time com pilations have been made of statutory changes, with the judi cial constructions placed upon them: The Revised Statutes in 1837, the Revised Code in 1854, Battles Revisal in 1873, The Code in 1883, Pells Revisal in 1905, Jerome's Criminal Code and Digest in 1916, The Consoli dated Statutes in 1918. The North Carolina Code in 1927. ! The decisions represent the tra ditional common law as it has continued into the life of our time. The statutes represent merely patch-work changes in the common law made in scatter ed moments to meet obvious evils as they raised their heads. No comprehensive study of these de cisions, these statutes, and their relation to each other or to the unwritten practices of admini strative officers, has yet been carried through. In short, no critical analysis of the theory and the practice of our criminal procedure has yet been made. In 1848 the Field Code of Civil Procedure was completed. It furnished the basis for a com plete codification and revision of CHRISTMAS SEAL DRIVECONTINUES Jack Ward and Friendship Coun cil in Charge of Sale of Seals on Campus. The annual Christmas seal sale sponsored by the National Tuberculosis League has begun in Chapel Hill. Each year this society sells Christmas seals in order to get funds with which to combat tuberculosis. The society provides food and camps for tubercular children and in many other ways renders a great service in fighting the disease. House-to-house canvassing started yesterday, continues to day, and will finish tomorrow. Mrs. M. S.' Breckenridge, Mrs. G. B. Logan, and Mrs. H. D. Car ter entertained the canvassers at a luncheon on November 28. Mrs. Breckenridge, chairman of the Chapel Hill Tuberculosis Committee, spoke of the unusual demands likely to be made this year to carry on preventative health work. Jack Ward has charge of the sale of the Christmas health seals in the fraternities. Students appointed by the freshman Friendship Council are respon sible for canvassing of the i dormitories. TUESDAY, DECEMBER 2, civil procedure in- North Caro lina in 1868 In the spring of 1929 the American Law Insti tute completed its Model Code of Criminal Procedure. It is based upon an intensive study of the procedural systems in the . dif ferent states of the union and the leading countries of the world, by a group of distinguish ed law teachers, judges and practitioners- It furnishes the basis for a complete codification and revision of criminal pro cedure in North Carolina today. Plan of Procedure This work has been under taken by the teacher of Crimin al Law and Procedure in the Law School of the University of North .Carolina, together with a number of the younger members of the North Carolina Bar living in different parts of the state. Each lawyer is (1) studying one or more chapters of the Model Code in terms of its com mon law and statutory back ground, (2) traeing the North Carolina law bearing upon it as it has developed through our statutes and decisions from Colonial days to the present, and (3) comparing its present status in detail with the provisions the Model Code s0 M to indicate the similiarities and differences between them. As the first draft,. of each chapter is completed it will be rotated among the lawyers who have been working on the other chapters and then rewritten in the light of the criticisms of all who are associated in the work and the greater grasp derived from a study of the Code as a whole. As each chapter is re written it will be circulated among the Judges and Prosecut ing attorneys of the Supreme, Superior and Intermediate Courts for the invaluable cri ticisms and suggestions which can come from men daily en gaged in the administration of (Continued on page four) MANY STUDENTS USE LOAN FUNDS Dean Bradshaw Requests Early Applications for Next Quarter's Loans. As financial depression con tinues to make both credit and employment, difficult, the Uni versity loan funds, managed by the office of F..F. Bradshaw, dean of students, are in great demand. Many students who have borrowed to remain in. col lege this quarter are having to continue borrowing in order to Other students who were able to arrange for the fall quarter without a University loan find it . necessary to apply for such help as they make their plans for the winter quarter. Dean Bradshaw urges that all stu dents who plan to request loan fund assistance for the winter and spring quarters notify his office as soon as possible. Juniors and seniors, who will register before going home, will need to take such steps imme diately since fees are collected at the time of registration as was the case this fall.

Braune, dean of the school of engineering suc cumbed to an attack of pneu monia, at six o'clock last Wed nesday evening. The late Mr. Braune accomplished a great deal in raising the University's engineering school to the rank of one of the most prominent in the country, and was also active in research in engineering fields. The community was shocked by the suddenness of the Dean's demise. He had been about the village apparently healthy Sat urday before his death but a cold with which he was seized Sunday developed into pneu monia and proved fatal. So quickly did the disease reach its conclusion that few of -his friends and associates even knew that he was ill until they heard of his death. Mr. Braune was born in Eu taw, Alabama, fifty-eight years ago. After his graduation from Spring Hill College, Mobile, he attended the Royal Polytechnic Institute in Dresden, Germany, and completed the course lead ing to the degree of civil en gineer. From 1897 to 1903 he was engineer for the Southern Bridge company in Birmingham, and thereafter was for several years, connected with construc tion enterprises as designer and consultant. At one time he was a member of the engineering staff of the New York barge canal. Dean Braune's first venture as a teacher was made when he joined the faculty of the Univer sity of Cincinnati in 1912. He had become head of the engin eering department there when he accepted the position at the University in 1921. In the next year he was appointed dean and organized the engineering school. One of the innovations which he favored was the system whereby the students spent part of their time away from the University at work for transportation, manufacturing, construction, and power companies. In research, his best known achievements were concerned with the determination of earth pressures on culverts. Some of his experiments were conducted in cooperation with the North Carolina highway commission. He contributed frequently to engineering journals, and for three years he was a director of the American Society of Civil Engineers. Mr. Braune was a member of (Continued on page four) dim MEET i ANNUALDEBATE Society Teams Clash on Subject of Luxury Tax. The Mary D.
