Fellows Arrive By Randy Phillips A former public defender, an ex-prosecutor, a one-time legal aid attorney and the admissions officer of a prominent New England law school. What they all have in com- mon is participation in Harvard's Legal Methods program - the first year student's introduction to the terra incognita of the process of lawyering. Launched in the 1950s, Legal Methods is now undergoing an in- tensive faculty review that could lead to wholesale change. But all th new LM instructors and the program's new administrative di- rector, HLS Admissions Director Patricia A. Lydon, agree the pro- gram is - or can be - a vital part of the law school experience. I feel very strongly that Har- vard should keep Legal Methods, said teaching fellow Fred Moss, who worked last year in HLS's clinical program for 2L's and 3L's.

The last issue to appear in print was dated April, 1976 and that issue appeared two months late. At the time the Record went to print, the May issue was not yet published. Contacted by the Record, Susan Estrich, newly elected Review presi- dent, admitted that it's unusual for us to have ended up this far behind. Dean Albert M. Sacks stated that he could not really say when an issue had been this late before. Sacks, too, thought it was quite un- usual. The dean has made a number of inquiries to the Review and maintains that he has had explanations from them. Asked if these explanations were satisfactory, he responded, I understand what has occurred and I really don't think anyone is happy about it, The Review normally publishes eight issues per year. The editorial board is responsible for getting out the last two numbers of the previous board's volume and the first six numbers of its own volume.
