Regents Case Heard Before Supreme Court in Bismarck
Regents' case before the North Dakota Supreme Court centered on whether board members Scow and Power may hold over after their terms ended. Arguments by Assistant Attorney General Brennan contend the regent act lacks a holdover provision, while defense maintains no vacancy exists requiring replacement. The court took the case under advisement with a decision expected next week. The report also notes a convention in Valley City with speakers Miss Anna A. Gordon and Mrs. Ida Wise Smith, and mentions British raids and air actions on the Western Front.
