3 Oyez Oyez Bull. Sec. Jud. Admin. [1] (1960)

handle is hein.journals/oyzoyz3 and id is 1 raw text is: O yezs! Oyez! a,4'es of/a. Section of Judicial Administration American Bar Association Vol. 3, No. 1I MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN The Annual Meeting is upon us once again and I extend to each of you a most cordial invitation to attend. The schedule of events for the Section is a full one, and I feel certain that you will benefit greatly if you will but take advantage of the opportunity to participate. The Section's Law and Laymen program for the meeting promises to be an excellent one. The moderator of the panel will be Lawrence E. Spivak of NBC's Meet the Press, and the panelists will include, among many other noteworthy personages, Mrs. Perle Mesta, former Minister Plenipotentiary to Luxembourg, and Ratymond Burr of the Perry Mason television series. Another interesting-and controversial-program to be presented by the Section at the meeting is the Demonstration of Modern Theories of Procedure which will be put on in the Ceremonial Court Room of the United States Court House. This show has already been on the road and has proved itself ready for the big time in Washington. It was presented at the Regional Meeting in Portland where it stirred up a great deal of controversy and caused some heated discussion con- cerning the principles advanced in the course of the demonstration. I think you will also find the format of the program slightly different and more than a little entertaining. Our Annual Dinner in honor of the judiciary is always the high point of Section activity at the annual meeting. The speaker will be one of our distinguished English visitors, The Right Honorable Lord Evershed, Master of the Rolls, London, England. The luncheon at this year's meeting is to be held jointly with the Section of International and Comparative Law and the Junior Bar Conference. Another of our English guests will be the speaker at the luncheon. He is The Right Honorable Lord Justice Pearce, Judge of the Court of Appeal, London, England. His topic will be Our Common Problems in the Common Law. The program in rull is set forth in another part of this Bulletin. The Section was handicapped this year because of the untimely passing of Judge James Alger Fee who was to have been Chairman of the Section. Although I was ill-prepared to fill his shoes, it has been possible for me to carry on with the able assistance of our Administrative Assistant, Ben MacKinnon. Stephen Chandler, Chairman, 1959-60 Chief Judge. United States District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma. The Section has this year done much toward the promotion of the administration of justice. We have distributed materials; participated in and presented pro- grams; have started, continued and finished various projects; all of these things with the view of bringing the legal profession out of the Dark Ages so that it can and will keep pace with modern times. Our task is not a small one, but tangible results of our work do appear from time to time and serve to encourage further effort. I know that the Section will render even greater service to the legal profession next year under the competent guidance of Judge McCoy. I will see you in Washington. STEPHEN CHANDLER, Chairman August 10, 1960
