Certified Check Value in Gambling Transaction Considered

S.W. Livingston 3L and H.F. Blumenberg 3L of the Pollock-Choate Club won the second semi-final round of the Ames' Competition of the Law School last night, defeating Harry Baum 3L and Logan Fulrath 3L of the Cardoza Club, by decision of the judges. The case was a consideration of whether giving a certified check in the course of a gambling transaction, where gambling is prohibited, destroys the maker's right to stop the check.

Judges Named

Judges for last night's court were: Honorable C.F. Stearns L '93, Justice of the Supreme Court of Rhode Island; Honorable J.A. Lowell '91, United States District Judge for Pennsylvania. By virtue of its victory last night the Bollock-Choate Club wins the right to enter the finals of the Ames Competion with the Edward Waren Club, winner of the first semi-final court of two nights ago. The finals will take place some time in January.
