The Lawyer who won the trial was Attorney William Jennings Bryan. However it might be important to point out that the verdict was later overturned by the appellate court of Tennessee.Correction: Attorney Clarance Darrow was the lawyer who won the trial. Attorney William Jennings Bryan was council for the defense. The case was still overturned on appeal.Note: the Scopes trial was not "against evolution", it was against teaching evolution in any state funded school or university. See the link below for the complete story of the Scopes trial.
John Scopes was found guilty and fined $100.00. The conviction was later reversed by the Tennessee Supreme Court on a technical point that the fine was excessive. The Court, however, upheld the the lawas consititutional.
The Scopes Trial happened in 1925, in Dayton, Tennessee. The trial took place over eleven days, July 10-21.A high school football coach and teacher, John Thomas Scopes, was arrested for allegedly breaking the terms of the Butler Act which prohibited teaching that humans were descended from a "lower form" of creature.In fact it is unlikely that Scopes ever taught students anything about evolution. Firstly because he wasn't a biology teacher (though he did stand in for the headmaster, who did teach biology, when the headmaster was on sick leave. More importantly, once the trial was over Scopes admitted that he had never taught anyone about evolution and that he had been recruited by local citizens so they could stage a trial in Dayton which would publicise the town at national level.At the end of the trial, Scopes was fined $100, decided by the judge. This was later used as an excuse to set the trial result aside, when it went to appeal, because any fine over $50 should have been decided by the jurors, NOT by the judge.Quite a large number of lawyers took part in the trial - for the defense and for the prosecution - including Clarence Darrow and William Jennings Bryan. The judge presiding over this case was named John T. Raulston.Contrary to widespread claims, the play, film, and TV movies of Inherit the Wind were only very superficially based on this trial, which was in fact an attack on the McCarthy anti-communist witch hunt that took place during the late 1940s and early 1950s.
The climax.
Good point men are very dramatic. One of these days the world is going to end when a man breaks his thumb.
The Scopes trial, formally listed as The State of Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes, was a turning point for the teaching of evolution in schools. John Scopes purposefully incriminated himself to force an upturn on the Tennessee's Butler Act, which made it unlawful to teach human evolution in schools funded by the state.

Crosman distributes 2 brands of Scopes. The "Crosman" and "Center Point" scopes. All you have to do is look at the packaging or Owners manual to see who the scope is made by. I found a few Center Point manuals that stated they are made in China. I also found the same for the Crosman brand.
The climax.
John Scopes was a high school teacher in Tennessee who was charged with violating the state's Butler Act, which made it illegal to teach evolution in public schools. Scopes intentionally taught evolution in his classroom to challenge the law and bring attention to the issue.

The most dramatic point in a work is called the climax. It is where the conflict reaches its peak and is typically near the end of the story, leading to the resolution.
