In the beginning f-SIC, then, Vg I there were tlnrty members of the Class of '29, Academically, this collection was of as diverse pedigree as a 5 stray cat: actually, as was soon discovered, they were more than closely akin. This feeling of alliance it was I I which promoted thc great discovery that week-ends properly begin on Thursday. Of course, the class dis- - 3 trcssed itself very elaborately at first with the tortuous vagaries of the common and elusive law, but this toil only aggravated the desire for the ritualistic observance of Thursday evening. Between this pastime and the tnrinaltty ol classes, the hrst year ebbcd away. lhe second frame showed the roster a trifle abbreviated-vicissitude having overtaken a half dozen of the entrants. the gallant remainder of the 'crew managed about this time to shake the first frenzy of their legal , curiosity.

Years ago when Bob first entered the University we all thought that he would be another Shakespeare or Milton, but he decided that the bar Cboth kindsj would be more pleasant than to become immortal. Bob has always shown good sense. As is customary in an article of this kind, you must always predict that the victim will be president of something or at least the greatest man in the world, but I wish to leave 'KBob to make his own record of which I know that we will be all justly proud. WILLIAM DALE TINSLEY Candidate for Degree LL.B. Honors, S. C. K A The case of Uiziivfersity of South Ca1'oli11.a vs. W. D. Tinsley, having come up for trial, counsel for defend- ant moved for postponement, his client being then en- gaged in some intense bridge, with two rubbers yet to play. The motion was disallowed as being dilatory. Whereupon, I. N. Frierson, of the defense, whose de- murrer had been overruled, as matter of course, pleaded guilty for defendant to the charge of three years' servi- tude in the Law Schoolg but contended for the mercy of the court on the grounds: 1. That to his own certain knowledge, defendant was as able and accurate a legal scholar as had entered his domain for many years. 2. That he was informed and reasonably believed the defendant to be as devastating socially as he was pro- ficient legally. 3. That it was a matter of common reputation that defendant had an immense poise, a voluble tongue and a common touch with all men. The court charged these matters, the jury returned a verdict of Guilty, whereupon the judge sentenced the prisoner to receive an LL.B. and to serve a score or so of successful years as a lawyer--at which Mr. Frierson clapped his hands in glee, while the prisoner dissolved in tears and began fumbling for his inevitable 0 af.
