Freedom of Speech To Be Discussed Today by Local Attorney
Freedom of spesch wlll be discussed by John Beardsley at the Law School assembly this morning at 10 o'clock. Mr. Beardsley, Los Angeles attorney, was admitted to the bar in 1908, and since that time has devoted much of his attention to the defense of constitutional llbetrles.

Chief Justice Hughes handed the decision ln the Yucaipa valley flag ease defendant the decision, declaring that the law by which the defendant had been convicted was unconstitutional Inasmuch as lt violated the guarantee of freedom of speech. In this case Mr. Beardsley was attorney for the defense.
In the Stromberg vs. California case, also it was upon Mr. Beardsley's appeal from the California courts that the supreme court reversed a conviction of a young woman, declaring that the fieedom of spcech guarantee had be-n violated.
Defense of Individuals whose civil liberties have been Invaded and restricted by unlawful administrative and legislative acts have formed the basis for some of Mr. Beardsley's most Interesting eases. His greatest successcs have been In proving some of the acts unconstitutional.
He ls chairman of the committee of constitutional rights of the Lo.s Angeles Bar association, and chairman of the executive committee of the southern California branch of the American Civil liberties union.

Registration at that hour ln the Law building lobby will be followed by morning sessions ln Porter hali, luncheon at the Women's Residence hall, and aftemoon lectures and discussions ln the Administration building.
Three sessions that should prove of special Interest to college men and women have been stressed by | Dr. Osborn. The first, ln Administration 305, at 1:20 p. m., has as Hs subject. “What Makes Personality Attractive?" It's aim Is to distinguish, if possible, what ls meant by “sex appeal,” pointing out what traits one sex admires ln the other, differences ln behavior between the sexes, and how young people can get along together successfully.
"Choice of a Mate” is the second topic arranged particularly for collegians, and, according to Dr. Osborn, one of vital importance to them. “Few people have any real preparation for marriage." he says.

FORT SAM HOUSTON, Tex., Feb. 28, <UR>.—Major William O. Ocker. oldest army pilot ln point of service and pioneer Inventor of flying devices, pleaded not guilty today at his general courtmartlal on charges he “cussed out” a superior officer.
He was called to plead after ths piosecutlon's only witness for the day testified that Ocker had spoken disparagingly and profanely of his superior officer, Lieut. Col. Henry A. Clagett, commandant of Kelly Field.

The small room ln the old medical clinic to the post was crowded with officers, members of ths court and spectators. Only a few civilians were present.
After Major Ocker’s formal plea, court was adjourned until tomorrow. The prosecution, however, moved swiftly In presenting Its case against the veteran pilot who learned to fly with the Wright biothers when they were testing “flying crates.”
For two hours Major C. M. Johnston, the post's flight surgeon was on the witness stand. Johnston's order grounding Ocker brought forth the vilest epithets.
He told about ordering Major Ocker grounded after he had examined his eyesight at the command of Colonel Clagett. Then, several weeks later, ne said that Major Ocker visited him after be-Uitr reinstated to the status of pilot by another examiner.
“Major Ocker waj greatly excited." Major Johnston said. “Hls face was flushed.”
