counsel to retiring Chief Justice Michael Bender.

Swarthmore College, which operated with a volunteer
staff and a shoestring budget.
Andy Low was a managing editor at the Phoenix
in the spring of 1971. He helped put out the Friday
edition of the twice-weekly paper. And Thursday,
April 1, he was preparing for another late night at the
newspaper's office in the student center, getting the
paper ready for press.
Late that afternoon, Low, now an attorney at Davis
Graham & Stubbs in Denver, was contacted by the
paper's editor, Martha Shirk. She needed to show him
something, right away.
