Below are tentative key answers to the State court at­
tendant examination held last Saturday. These answers are
entirely unofficial. They were prepared by two experts, but
they are not to be taken by the candidate as the official an­
swers of the State Commission. Some of the questions have
b e e n c o n d e n s e d , for reasons of space; and in multiple choice
q u e s t i o n s , only the correct answer—not the incorrect ones—
are included.
