Wait for Jury Trial
Figured About a Year
Stanford, Calif. (U.R The
editors of the Stanford Law Re
view have found that the na
tional average waiting time for
jury trial after a civil case has
been placed on the docket is
just under a year.
In some places it's worse; some
places, better. A plaintiff suing
in the superior court of Wor
cester county, Mass., must wait
almost four years, and a delay
of two years is not uncommon
in other parts of the country.
"The passage of time causes
memories to dim and witnesses
to die or disappear." said the
Review in a current issue. "And
a plaintiff with a just claim may
be deterred from prosecuting it
or be compelled to make an jn
equitable settlement by finan
cial inability to wait for trial."
The Review, which examined
the situation, held that compul
sory arbitration of small claims,
now receiving an extensive test
in Pennsylvania, offered all
states "an encouraging prospect
for the speedier administration
of justice."

Radio Corp. Evaluates
Qualities of Lenses
Philadelphia U.F8 An elec

first time will enable scientists
to evaluate and grade the per
formance qualities of lenses in
objective mathematical terms
has been developed experiment
ally by the Radio Corporation
of America.
The instrument reportedly
will introduce unprecedented ac
curacy, speed, and economy in
pre-rating lenses of all types, and
will enable users to select by
specific grade lenses with exact
characteristics for given appli
cations. - The electronic lens tester re
sulted from initial research con

U. 5. Citizens Live
Longer Than Europe's
Berkeley, Calif. (U.P.) A
University of California physiol
ogist analyzed disease and mor
tality tables in Europe and Amer
ica and reported that Americans
are living longer and in better
health.
Dr. Hardin Jones said that.
furthermore, Americans in the
middle years are physiologically
four years younger than their
predecessors living at the begin
ning of the century.
More individuals today live to
reach adult life: they contract
heart disease and cancer later in
life, and now it appears that five
to 20 years have been added to
the productive early middle life,
he said.
He said increasing numbers of
people die of arteriosclerosis and
cancer. But the chances of these
diseases striking a given individ
ual in a given year of middle and
old age are decidedly smaller
than they were 50 years ago.
Dr. Jones' studies led him to
the conclusion that aging is the
result of the impairment of the
body's internal chemical proc
esses by infectious disease and
injury.
The deer belongs to the group
of animals called Pecora, which
includes the true ruminants or
cud chewers. with four-cham
bered stomachs. Other members
are the giraffe, antelope, ox,
goat and sheep.

Some issues throughout the
