E U htFOREWORD
For 1921 this is a memory book! Replete with the thousand-and-one
things that can recall the happy, gravely irresponsible days of our college years —
THE VERDICT is before you. And being but a mere neophyte in the field
of collegiate journalism, we trust that you will judge it with a kindly eye and
attribute its faults of omission or commission to its youthfulness. Undertaken
at a latent hour and carried to completion in face of obstacles which present them-
selves to every premier venture in the world, we take a pardonable pride in tendering
the fruit of our labors.
THE VERDICT is primarily a class publication. As such, of course, it
is concerned, in chief, with the activities of '21, its frolics, its efforts, its achieve-
ments. However, it has been our aim to give it an appealing aspect to all — to
underclassmen, who may discern something of the glories that await them; to our
alumni, who may see herein a reincarnation of their own days, differing only in
degree; to our friends, who may pass an idle hour over its pages.
And yet, it must be to the class itself, that the book makes its chiefest appeal.
The call has come, and we have not been recreant. No one can say how many —
or how few — of us will gather in the afteryears and live anew “the ways of
time’s all-golden yesterdays." It is for THE VERDICT to make certain that
these hours shall live; that Nineteen Twenty-One, hand in hand and heart with
heart, shall go out into the shadowed reaches of the future with ranks unbroken.
We accept the mission. We welcome it! We fancy that there lies the motive
which has inspired us thru the months lying behind. If we come to accomplish such
a task in any degree however slight, may we not feel that we have succeeded in
perpetuating the glories of Albany Law, and in manifesting the true spirit of
" Twenty-One ”!

TwelveCONE TO CREET THE DAWN OF ETERNAL PEACE
E SHALL not say that Landry and Shepard and Ornsteen and
the rest of these have died. Rather we shall think that they
have passed beyond the mists that blind us here and have come
to the end of the Rainbow! “ Not for ourselves, but for our country ”
they flung out at us and crossed the Barrier to greet the dawn of eternal
peace.
Four thousand miles across the blue Atlantic where the Marne and
the Seine and the Meuse bear the fragrance of the flowers around their
graves out to sea and the sun weaves crowns of gold above their heads,
they “ went West ” that no children of the afteryears should have to
go thru their Gethsemane. “ What equal glories could their future years
have won? ” Teaching us that life is, after all, the one great Adven-
ture — a thing not to sift out miserly, but rather to spend unstintingly
— they have left us a story that is at once epic and sublime.
The Crusaders of the Middle Ages died to regain an empty tomb.
I he crusade in which these men fought was to preserve the living fire of
the imperishable cause of freedom and right triumphant. Life was as
dear to them as it is to any of us. And yet they gave it without measure
— gave it that ours might be a world decent and fit to live in; for a newer
and broader life; for liberty and peace.
O, Spartans of Thermopylae, room for them! Up thru Chateau
Thierry and the Argonne they have come to stand by your side and dare
to call you clansmen. You undaunted Six Hundred of Balaklava, meet
these men who tramped blithely up the roads of war to Belleau Wood
and St. Mihiel! O, you of Valley Forge and Gettysburg, place for
these who proved they were still men and worthy of their fathers. They
are your kind, you men of San Juan and Manila Bay. Place! Place
for them — our friends, our classmates, our compatriots! They are ours!
Ours, dear God! Missing them, we shall be worthy of them while we
marvel at the dignity of their destiny.

Law s Most Distinguished AlumnusTO THE TRUSTEES
For their intensely warm support and keen interest in all the student
activities, but more peculiarly in THE VERDICT, the Class of 1921 wishes
to thank the Trustees. This year, beyond all years, their unfaltering generosity
and loyalty in facing the problems of Albany Law have aroused in us a new
sense of responsibility — which, after all. is mutual.

A History
Our college course is ending. We shall soon complete our brief stay
here; and then we shall leave to assume the new duties and engage in the
greater struggles for which we have been training.
Only yesterday we came. The flitting years have left us with precious
memories. We see ourselves in the olive-drab and hobnails, and feel the
hushed, oppressive silence of the ranks, the awe-strained tenseness, the ill-
suppressed emotion. Again we hear the news of peace, await demobilization,
and sense the gradual relief as we discard our martial dress to turn to thoughts
of peace and to our studies. Thus ended our service, in S.A.T.C. or at the
front; and thus we gathered.
May we with pride review the achievements of the past? We need not
mention our memorable freshman banquet, so victoriously held in spite of the
meddling juniors. Rather we will recall our reaflinnanee of allegiance to law
and order when unitedly we arose in support of the Dean to purge our institu-
tion of a sinister element. For our greatest pleasure is to feel that we have
contributed in some small way to the welfare and progress of the school.
Indeed we have seen it increase in numbers to the largest enrollment in its
history. We have honored the quarter century of distinguished service ren-
dered bv Dean Fiero. For the first time the Albany Law School is recognized
and represented in inter-collegiate activities and is engaged in successful com-
petition on the basketball court with proud collegiate rivals. And today, as
our parting tribute we present this annual — a production which has never
before, been undertaken by any Law School class.
But this is not all. Let ours be a greater test. Let the measure, of our
benefaction be the spirit within which we have fostered, the standard and
ideals which we have set, and the faith which we have encouraged. We have
earnestly endeavored to promote and maintain the standards of democracy
and good fellowship, and to build our progressive ideals into practical realities.
If we have achieved this we shall go on with pleasant memories.
For now we have reached another hill-top. A few days more and we will
go down the valley, only to start the climb again. As we go and as we climb
we shall not be forgetful of the debt we owe to Albany Law School. May our
lives do their share in the perpetuation of her glory.

If an accident causes Florence to decide something

some jury gazes across the jury table at her—and, if you

The goodly influence of this wholesome youth has

fasts and clocks never set arc liabilities that the law
frowns upon where Love reigns.

" Dick”
When “Dicky’s” not asleep, bis chief concern is to
make a nuisance of himself in the way of “ rah, rah
Stuff” which, we take it, he (lid not throw off when he
left high school. He looks as innocent as a vested choir
hoy, and yet lie bears close watching. He has an in-
veterate habit of propelling his heels when his gray
matter should be in use. But then—childhood must
have its vent.

“ Steve ”
The Bluebeard of the class! The heartless con-
queror of the Amazons! Oh, what a change is here!
From the most .demure, shy and harmless chrysalis of
“ froshdom ” to the most daring, adventurous “ love-
pirating butterfly” of staid seniorsbip. A veritable
Jckyl and Hyde- for his work indicates only grinding.
Be careful, “Steve,” candle burning at both ends is
dangerous.TOMA Hislory
Out of the chaos of war. when men were easting about, groping here and
there among the professions of life to determine which one would fit them best
to assume the burden of rebuilding, reconstructing a world on a new basis of
law and order, a basis not destined for a W aterloo on the fields of France —
or elsewhere — there gathered together in the city of Albany at the Albany
Law School a group of men known as the Class of 1922.
For had not Seycnkcn-Rc, one of the Hyksos or Shepherd Kings of Egypt
in the year 1973 B.C., given to the world, carved in everlasting stone, this
cryptic prophesy:
“A world built upon the lust of kings cannot last; a world built upon the
shifting sands of desire of nations will not last. There will he darkness, and
chaos and struggle- hut from the maelstrom shall there arise a new spirit
embodied and fostered by the champions of Law and order who shall come
forth in the year .'JSf).1) (1!22 A. I).) from out of a new city of Albany in a far
country to rebuild the world forever.”
They were a mere handful of men. 10:J in all. yet in their soul burned the
fires of achievement and of vision, in their speech is the eloquence of Demos-
thenes and Cicero, and in them repose the example of the leadership of Alex-
ander and Napoleon. Forged in the Hcllfircs of war as they were, tempered
with the heritage of time, even from the dark ages of Egypt thru the splendid
history of the school which is their Alma Mater, from the very beginnings as
a class did they show forth the sterling qualities which are theirs.
No height was too great for them to climb. Where all other classes had
failed, they succeeded. Under the presidency of Charles M. Hughes they
went forth to banquet and to song, to dance and to play, to work and to success.
With Edward Leary as their leader they gathered themselves anew to all this
and more; they launched the first Junior From in the history of the school;
they dedicated themselves to the erection of a new legal home worthy of them,
their progenitors and those that arc to be.
But Lo! their days of preparation arc numbered. The autumn leaves
have but to burv themselves once more beneath the snows of winter, the buds
of spring have but to burst forth again in their eternal mystery and glory,
when the springtime of youth with the class of 1922 will pass away and they
will stand before the bar of the world.
But hold! that is the year of prophesy, the summertime of destiny.
Great Hyksos, may thy word, spoken when the age of man was young, be
greater than even thou knewest, and may the pathless, trackless way be
fraught with thy vision, coming with the passing of the clouds of life to
a glorious sunset.

A History
Nineteen Twenty Three stands gazing intently on the year that has spent
itself. Setting out on law's pathways on September 15 last, ’23 espied an
opportunity to bring to Law something of the old-line vigor and spirit, and
looking back may it not say that it has not altogether failed?
At the very outset the elass election gave us our first taste of that spirit
of enthusiasm which always drives a project or a elass on toward the goal
sublime. We were told the thousand-and-onc things which come to every first
elass in the way of what to expect and what to look forward to when law’s
grind would seek us out in earnest. But we went on. We fancied that some
hard work and something akin to strict attention to the task at hand would
bring us to the end of the trail — if there be an end.
The class banquet on the night of December 9. at the Hampton, was our
initial venture. The morn which followed oped the eyes of upperclassmen to
the possibilities beneath our utter greenness. It was a notable affair and
welded the class as one composite group intent upon a deep-seated friendship,
a lasting unity and a greater Albany Law. And as if to demonstrate that its
premier affair was not of the passing fancy type, the class dance, which came
in latent Spring, again manifested the plan and scope of '23 and all that it
purposed.
But not alone in the soeial swirl did ’23 try its hand. Rather was that
a means to an end — and that end was the maintenance of Law’s high and
unimpeachable standard for scholarship. Long before the six essentials of
a contract were part of a day's work or the Dartmouth College ease was on
the morning calendar, we came to know Dean Fiero and Messrs. Lawyer,
Battcrshall, Watson and Fitzpatrick. Midyears came and went and we with-
stood the shock — somehow. Wc may not have done as well as bygone classes,
but we know what it is to work.
In the field of athletics we must lav claim to glory’s diadem. “ Joe "
D’Aprile of the ’Varsity is ours! And along the side lines we maintained
four bearing the brands of squadmen. We like to think that we have done as
well as our upperclassmen in this respect. Modesty forbids us to sav we
achieved more.
But the hour has struck — and ’23 would move into line as the Junior
class of Albany Law. To do as well as our predecessors is our prayer; to
accomplish even greater glories for Law is our hope. One-third of our College
course lies to the rear of us. Forward lies the future. May we face the
years that remain to us with the same spirit and determination to record in
golden letters tasks done that arc alone worth while..'WFRESHMAN CLASS—1923

Law’s distinguished advent into the field of athletics has. aside from the
team and its most efficient manager, produced for future generations one
outstanding figure — “Marty” Barry, ’22. Unable to go out and achieve
athletic glories for his Alma Mater because of his basketball activities in
the State League, “ Marty ” offered his services as coach and if Albany Law
has fashioned a team worthy of note, it is to him that Law owes its chicfest
debt and appreciation.
Fresh from the courts, where almost nightly he met up with such satel-
lites of the basketball world as “ Barney ” Sedran, “ Chief ” Mueller, “ Dick ”
Leary and Friedman, he gave his time and his wealth of experience as a
league leader to Albany Law’s squad and, from material well nigh raw,
he moulded an aggregation which gave a keen surprise to collegiate contingents
and their adherents.
Standing second on the individual scoring list at the close of the 1919-20
State League season and finishing the first half of the 1920-21 period in
the premier position. Law could have sought no better man to drive her
charges through the traces of basketball. His ability, his supreme courage,
his grit, and the omnipresent stamina long ago set him out as a leader where
leaders foregathered.
To everyone he is “ Martv ” Barry. To us the mention of “ Marty ”
in the years to be will convey the picture of a basketball star. “ Barry ”
will ever signify that on the court he was what he always was away from it —
a gentleman. Star forward and coach immortal. He will forever bring
recollections pleasant and inspiring. In short, “ Marty ” Barry will always
mean to us that “ Marty ” was a great coach, an inspiring leader, a star,
but above all, an athlete with the grace and bearing of a gentleman.

BASKETBALL REVIEW— 920-1921
Fourteen games — and ten of them victories! And this in the initial ven-
ture of Albany Law into the field of athletics since the war and the first time
in the institution’s seventy years that anv of its athletic teams have played a
strictly collegiate schedule.
Defeating aggregations of the calibre of the University oi Vermont,
Tufts. Norwich University and Fordham Law; putting up an aggressive,
intensive, yet losing fight against Niagara and Union; and then to witness the
cancellation of what loomed to be “ the one big game " of the season with
State College thru their seeming cowering fear of the Law quintet was all in
a season’s adventure for the Lawyers, and yet, as unqualifiedly successful as
was the season, it did not come without severe and untiring effort.
Gathering about him a team that had never played together before, Coach
“ Marty ” Barry fashioned a winning combination from Bowers, D'Aprile.
Behan, Conway, Taylor, and O’Connor and if in nothing else, he should find
some slight degree of reward in the knowledge that he has produced a vic-
torious aggregation of men, practically all of whom have another year to
demonstrate their ability on the courts. In spite of the fact that many of
the college managements had dosed their schedules when Albany Law deter-
mined upon a basketball team, fourteen games were arranged thru the instru-
mentality of I’d ward M. Cameron, manager, and as a result some of the best
known college fives in the east were seen in action against the Law men.
The season opened with St. Michael's on the third of December anti the
victory for Law gave the pristine season the impetus it most needed. The
Out Umpired FourteenGreen Mountain trip resulted in cnc victory ami one defeat and as tin; season
aged, .the marked improvement of the team was made manifest and Law sup-
porters may point out with just pride the defeat of Manhattan. St. .John's and
the Kdison Club by safe margins and the bitterly contested Union, Trinity,
Middlcbnry and Niagara games, costly victories for them. The final game
came on March third and when the team had quit. Albany had nosed I’ordham
Law out and won. 81 18.
Thus ended the season of 1920 1921.
As to individuals. Captain Powers was decidedly the big man of the aggre-
gation. not only from the standpoint of the largest number of field baskets
scored, but his ability to pass and follow the ball. But his greatest worth to
the team was his sheer ability in handling his men. As a leader, he cannot be
surpassed.
The big point-gctLr for the team was D’Aprile. who has to his credit for
the season no less than 150 of the 872 points gathered by the Albany men. Ilis
vital work was on the offensive and many of Law’s victories were due to his
keen eye in shooting baskets.
Behan, a veteran of collegiate courts, never failed to astound the spectators
with his brilliant display of dribbling and pass work. Ilis amazing speed and
pass work, coupled with a steady and cool type of playing, brought the cheering
section to its feet time and again.
The center post was ably filled by Taylor, who played a consistent game
on both the offensive and defensive and out-jumping, his opponent was as com-
mon as his assuming the pivot position. He scored 28 field baskets to 12 at
the hands of his opponents.
The remaining links in the powerful chain were O’Connor and Conway.
The latter played at guard with a speed that was vigorous until midyears,
when graduation took him. O’Connor replaced him, and the energetic
defensive game he staged to the season’s close marks him as an outstanding
man for the team next year. It is expected that the entire aggregation as it
left the court this year will don the uniform at the opening of the 1921-22
season.
Valentine, Boynton. Chccgcr, Gcllert. Hcwes, Shync and Zielinski made up
the squad, all of whom were given an opportunity in one or more of the games.
The general supervision of the sport was in the hands of the Athletic
Council, composed of Lewis R. Parker, of the faculty, and chairman; Walter
W. Law. Jr., ’21, treasurer; L. K. Leary, ’22, secretary; S. It. Benson. ’21;
Martin J. Barry, ’22; Nathan Wood, ’28. and Stanley B. Johnson, ’28. Upon
its shoulders devolved the task of organizing the team and the student-body
for the task at hand. How well it succeeded may best be judged by the two-
fold statement that athletically and financially, the season was a noteworthy
success.

PROMS IS PROMSProm Committee
JUNIOR PROM
The first Junior Prom since the time when the memory of man runneth
not to the contrary, was given by the Class of 1922 in the upper ballroom of
the Ten Eyck Hotel on the evening of February 24. Jt was frankly a new
venture and its successful termination easily writes a new page in the social
chronicles of the school.
The Prom is now only a memory, but considered in retrospect, it is not
difficult to ferret the reasons for its success. The charming girls, the perfect
rhythm of the music, the mellow rays of the lights all brought about a set of
circumstances quite sufficient to create a lasting impression.
The Prom, this year, should be a promising precedent. May it not be
hoped that it will come to be the basis of what will soon prove to be a well-
established custom and an integral part of the year’s work and play !
One Hundred Nineteen1921 Verdict BoardIN THE MAELSTROM OF WAR
The service- roll of Albany Law reveals an impressive bit of information
that is well-worth publishing even at this latent day. No less than four
hundred and fifty-two men were in the khaki or the blue and eleven of the
significant total are dead, seven of whom were undergraduates. The decor-
ations and citations run into a full score; the wounded, double that number,
while in the three branches of tin- service, including the aviation, intelligence
and ordnalice, no less than one hundred and thirty-six men won their bars.
But the figures of the classes of 1917. 1918, 1919 and 1920 are what stirs
one’s blood. Practically the entire membership of the four classes “ joined-
up " and in passing it is not too far afield to remark that in I860, when
another danger threatened, it was the college and university men who were
first to make answer. The response would seem to be indicative of the stern
stuff college-bred men are fashioned of and to what degree they may be
counted upon when war clouds loom on the horizon. Nor it is too presumptions
to add that these men who played their part in the Great World War are in the
forefront of those who are now intent upon leading the forces of Recon-
struction onward toward the heights to the consummation of those ideals for
which our war-dead gave their lives.
They have no illusions with respect to war. Their minds, as far as we
have belli able to determine, are not filled with the glamour of peace-time
pageantry. They have come to sec that battles are won bv men of tired bodies
and shattered nerves. They can never fail to recall that an offensive forever
suggests an endless movement of sleepless men and weary animals thru untold
black nights of rain and mud and sleet and storm. They can never forget
that dawn and dusk are transformed into an agonizing nightmare of waiting
for some new, unsuspecting horror — a horror which makes the- whitened
hospital walls and immaculate beds seem havens of luxury and peace.
But these identical men also believe that life without liberty is more-
hateful than all the maelstrom of war. In spite of all they know war to mean,
they still prefer it to the loss of national greatness or the betrayal and loss
of the precepts for which they fought.
And so. 1921 tenders this tribute to those who served, and won and
died. To unseen and seen alike we yield our hearts in deepest affection and
most solemn pride. That on a distant and terrible field of war our Alma
Mater spent herself valiantly, dauntlessly and to a greater victory must
henceforth be our chiefest glory. If what follows comes to be a memorial
to those who gave their utmost for their soul’s desire it shall have attained
its end.

In in hour when civilization and a constitutional form of government and the laws
of humanity ore being engulfed in the maelstrom of godless, soulless radicalism, if is
good to know that Albani Law lives on. For seventy years the grand old institution
has given to the nation and the far-flung world men and women - - of character the
loftiest, of ideals the highest, of distinction the sublimes ; men who have fitted into the
( rind of commercialism with a keen ability: who have ( raced the realm of government,
the press, the bench and the bar with the very stuff that has fashioned the nation's vitals
and fired the torch of all of them. There is a certain splendor, a peculiar { lory about,
the old school — and yet. its story neijpr has been adequately told. It seems odd enouyh
that the task should have been caught u i by Til 1C VICEDICT. Hut, after all. it could
have met no task -with more poignant enthusiasm. Smacking not of the cloistered pale
of book-racks and briefs, what follows from the pen of Harrell L. Hoyt should be dis-
cerningly perused by everyone.- The Editor.
The Albany Law School is seventy years old. It has had seven decades
of healthy growth; and it has seven times seventy ahead of it. Its founders
budded better than they knew. Their expressed aim. to put it tritely, was
to fit its graduates for the practice of law. And that has ever been, and
is to-day, the foremost policy of the Albany Law School. As was said in
the first prospectus of the institution: “The great object of all the teaching
here given is to fit the student to become a practical lawyer. Its design
is not only to enable him to learn the law, but to endow him with the power
of forming practical legal judgment in relation to its application and also of
impressing his convictions upon others by sound legal arguments, bv training
the mind to the. right use of its faculties, and enabling it to fully avail itself
of its own stores of knowledge.’’ It goes without saying to-day that a legal
education should be eminently practicable, that a young man or woman stepping
out into the work-a-day world should have a working knowledge of the mechanics
of his profession. The founders were Amos Dean, a skillful practitioner and
a man of great executive ability. Judge Ira Harris and Judge Amasa J. Parker,
both of whom were on the Supreme Court bench. To these three men. who
constituted the first faculty, the school owed its early prominence and the
dignity of its reputation. Students from all sections of the country were
attracted to Albany Law School by the scholarly attainments of these men.
In 1851 schools of law were almost unknown in this country. The
young man desiring to study for admission to the bar. entered an office and
after a more or less desultory course of reading, look examinations and was
admitted to practice. There was a law school at Cambridge. There had been
one at Litchfield and a department of law at Columbia University. The first
course of study given at Albany Law School lasted sixteen weeks. This
was extended in 1851- to two terms of twelve weeks each. In 185.0 the
curriculum was greatly broadened and lengthened by an additional term of
twelve weeks. This arrangement continued until 1805 when, conforming
to the requirements of the Board of Regents, a division into two semesters
of sixteen weeks each was made. After 1808 two full years of study were
One Hundred 'Thirty-fiverequired to entitle a student to the degree of bachelor of laws. In 1011
the courses were again extended and three years of study required for the
degree. In the original course of sixteen weeks, one hundred and sixty lectures
were given. Now, attendance upon ten hundred and twenty lectures during
the three year period is requisite for graduation. There arc no elective
subjects and every student is required to take all the work and pass an
examination in every subject in the curriculum.
The life of the school may be divided into three periods of approximately
the same duration. In 1851 there were twenty-three students and the founders
used the lecture system exclusively, laying down the great immutable legal
principles and maxims of the common law and citing cases as illustrations
of the rules rather than with the expectation that the student would master
the principles by close examination of the opinions. In 18( 7 there were one
hundred and fifty students, a high water mark for the first fifty years of
existence. The second period, from 1870 to 1895 was. like the second summer
of a child, a hard struggle for life and strength and the last few years of
this period mark the lowest ebb in the fortunes of the school. The teaching
began to swing from the practical to the speculative and theoretical. But
iti 1895 a reorganization of both the board of trustees and faculty occurred;
Dean I’icro took office and the history of the last quarter century is a
resume of his able administration. The viewpoint of the new trustees and
faculty was stated: “It is the fixed policy of the trustees and faculty
to make the course thoroughly modern and practical. We aim to give you the
law as it is, not as it was or as we think it should be; not intending thereby
to minimize the value of historical study and investigation, but to emphasize
the study of the decisions and statutes as they exist to-day, without giving
undue weight to those which have been overruled, repealed or become obsolete.”
And Dean l'iero has delineated the established policy of the school, then
and now, as: “The law can be best taught by the practising lawyer, who
is not only versed in its theories, enthusiastic with regard to its principles
and full of admiration for its growth, history and adaptability, but who is
also a practical man of affairs, the lawyer at the bar in daily contact with
his brethren and the bench, who is necessarily obliged in carrying on his own
practice to acquaint himself with the decisions of the court and who is fully
abreast with the practical, as well as theoretical, phases of the law. No
hard-and-fast method of instruction is adopted, we seek to glean Ihe best
method of teaching from those pressed upon our attention, and to that end
each lecturer is free to adopt any one or a combination of the most approved
methods of instruction. We avail ourselves of textbooks, of the case system,
of the lecture system followed by the founders, as that system has been
modified bv later investigation and experience. The purpose of the founders
to educate lawyers fitted to practice law continues to be the object of the
school, and this purpose is best accomplished by bringing to the attention of
and impressing upon the student the law of this jurisdiction, the law asDESIGN'FORTHE
ALBANY LAW -SCHOOL
M 'T'REYNOEI S • A RCHIT EOTenacted by the Legislature, and enforced by the courts of this State.1' The
continued prosperity of the institution, and the incontrovertible fact that
Albany Law School students are rarely unsuccessful in passing the bar
examinations,, have vindicated this policy.
The hoard of trustees at Ibis time arc William P. Rudd, president;
Seymour Van Santvoord, vice-president; J. Sheldon Frost,, secretary; Alanson
Page Smith, treasurer; Danforth F. Ainsworth, Frederick K. W. Harrow,
J. Newton Fiero, Frederick C. Fillev. Frank Gilbert, I). Cady Herrick,
Harold J. Hinman, Alton B. Parker, Amasa J. Parker, Lewis R. Parker,
Charles A. Richmond. James F. Tracey, John C. Watson and John X. Carlisle.
The present faculty consists of fourteen members: J. Newton Fiero, dean;
Hon. Alden Chester, Hon. William P. Rudd. Hon. 1). Cady Herrick, Lewis R.
Parker, Fletcher W. Battershall, Frank White, George Lawyer, Frank B.
Gilbert, Charles J. Herrick. Hon. Harold 1). Alexander, Hon. Newton B.
Van Dcrzee, John T. Fitzpatrick and John C. Watson. Andrew V. Clements
is assistant registrar.
Since 1851 more than three thousand men have been graduated, among
them President McKinley. Justice Brewer of the United States Supreme Court,
Chief Judge Parker and Judge Vann of the Court of Appeals, and many
other distinguished leaders at the bar and on the bench.
There arc two hundred and sixty students in attendance this present year.
The present home of the school has been utilized since 1879, when it was
moved from a wing of the Albany Medical College. Prior to 1854, the
lectures were delivered in a room in the Cooper Building at the corner of
Green and State streets and the first course of lectures was given in a
large hall in the old Post-office Building at the foot of State street where
the Federal Building now stands. When the student body was not larger than
one hundred and twenty-five to one hundred and fifty, the present quarters
were reasonably adequate, but with the increase to nearly three hundred, the
inconvenience is manifest and the congestion is a severe handicap to both
faculty and students. Four years ago the dwelling adjoining the school
property on the west was acquired and has been used as an annex in which
the office of the faculty, a senior library and a room for women students
have been arranged. There is. however, urgent need for a new and adequate
building. To that end a movement was started at the outbreak of the war
and nearly thirty thousand dollars had been subscribed and paid in. when
further action was suspended. This matter has now been taken up bv the
committees of the trustees, faculty, alumni and students, the latter, including
the graduating classes of 1919 and 1920. have shown their interest by sub-
scriptions to the amount of over seven thousand, five hundred dollars. The
property of the school is valued at upwards of sixty thousand dollars and
the purpose is to raise by subscription one hundred and fifty thousand dollars
for the erection of a modern and convenient building either on the present
One Hundred Thirty-eujhtsite or on some other to he selected. The requirements for a new buiiding
comprise, in addition to offices of the registrar, dean and faculty, three class
rooms and a library. It is also necessary that there should be an audience
room or hall of sufficient capacity to seat the entire student body. This will
involve the erection of a three-storv building, the cost of which would be
covered bv the sums suggested. In ease another site is selected, the present
site would bring a sufficient sum to cover the purchase of the new site.
The Albany Law School is not ambitious to he known by reason of the
number of students in attendance, but rather by the quality of the work,
and in order that this may be of the best, the view of the trustees and faculty
is to provide a building suitable for the accommodation of from three hundred
to three hundred and fifty students, so that each class shall be restricted
to such a number as that the work of each student will come under the
personal care and supervision of the dean and members of the faculty. In
this way only can the best results be obtained.
It is clear that high standards of professional conduct have always been
advocated by the faculty of Albany Law School. And it was made equally
clear a year ago by the expulsion of a student who had made unpatriotic
and seditious remarks that no kind of un-American radicalism would be
tolerated. It is inevitable that a real student of the law should grow more
and more conservative as his understanding increases. Great lawyers and
jurists are uniformly strong exponents of law and order. The supremacy
of the law is the foundation rock on which the safety and integrity of all
our institutions rest. Harm, and only harm, can come from revolutionary
change. Political reformers find office a veritable cold water bath for their
ardor for change. It is the discovery of what they can not do and ought
not to attempt, that transforms reformers into statesmen. Albany Law School
will continue to stand by tenets of our Constitutions, while it gives instruction
in the ever-changing, ever-progressing laws of the State and of the land,
which, in turn, pursue the ethical standards of the times. It will continue
to preach from its lecture platforms that no kind of knowledge is antagonistic
to our intellectual calling; that all varieties of erudition harmonize with and
enrich the one kind of knowledge to which we are to attach our reputations.
It will teach precision of language, definiteness of viewpoint and an intrepid
attitude in supporting our convictions. To quote Dean Piero again and it is
the most natural thing in the world for men who have been subjected to
his helpful and inspiring influence to quote him — " The future of this school
lies along the lines it has heretofore pursued, and while in no wise disparaging
the educational facilities provided by other institutions, the business of the
law department of Union University will continue to be the preparation
of men for the practice of the law within a period of time and with an
expenditure of money which accords with the opportunities of men of moderate
means.”

WALTER W. LAW, JR., ’21
"But the laic schools suffer from remoteness from the luxe courts, and from the
exclusively academical character of their teaching
Coming from the pen of no less an authority than the eminent Professor
Maitland of Cambridge University, that phrase should grip the hearts of
Albanians and men of Albany Law with a forcefulness that is vigorous in the
extreme and make clear the city’s distinct position at the forefront of intel-
lectual America. The legal center of the greatest financial, commercial and
industrial State in these United States. Albany’s educational aspect keeps pace
with its legal environment in a measure that is at once glorious and cestatical
and forces one to linger along the wayside in its discernment of the peculiar
post it maintains in meeting the eternal debt which Maturity owes Youth — the
debt of Education!
Almost from the inauguration of the State government at Albany, the
opinions of the New York Court of Appeals have served as beacons along the
pathway of the development of social opinion and the trend of social necessities
the country over. In this age of rapid advancement in every sphere, leaders in
thought in every State watch the opinions of the court with a concerning
interest, and in similar vein the work of the lesser tribunals — all of which
convene here — manifest great interest at the hands of men of affairs on every
hand. Within sight of each other, the Court of Claims, the Appellate Division
of the Third Department and the Federal District Court gather in session,
bringing a great number of the leading professional men of the State to the
confines of the city and furnishing a notable example for those who care to seek
out the capabilities of the leaders of the nation and their peculiar mannerisms
which invariably go toward winning in the “ last quarter of the hour.”
The State, itself, with its manifold departments and bureaus, its Legis-
lature and an occasional meeting of a constitutional convention affords student
or layman a unique opportunity to observe the practical ramifications of the
vast organization which constitutes the legal system of a modern progressive
community.
But it is to Albany’s tribute to America educational which chiefly concerns
one. For more than a century it has been an intellectual center. The Albany
Academy, one of the oldest preparatory schools in the State, was established
in 1813 and from the upper rooms of the Academy, Joseph Henry, a professor
of mathematics and natural history, made himself immortal by the discovery
that communications could be made over long distances by means of an electric
current — and made possible the sending of America’s first telegram.
For five decades, the Christian Brothers’ Academy has afforded a gram-

55555B555D55555555555mar. academic and commercial education to more than 200 students annually
and sent out into the world or to college an average of 30 hoys yearly. Along
with the Hoys’ Academy, the C. 11. A. maintains a military course and the four
classes are instructed in the science of militarism to a degree which has brought
forth commendable criticism.
It is doubtful if it is generally known that the Y. M. C. A., as it is regarded
in this country, had its beginnings in Albany in 1833. Amos Dean, building
better than he knew, in that year launched a mutual improvement association,
the early purpose of which was the maintenance of a library and reading room,
and the establishment of literary and scientific lecture courses. And later,
Judge Amasa .1. Parker, with his characteristic insight, transferred to this
institution the Harmanus Bleecker fund, which, with additions, amounted to
approximately $200,000.
Early in the nineteenth century, the city responded to the call for educa-
tion for women and the year following the founding of the Albany Hoys'
Academy, the Albany Academy for Girls was instituted and to this hour it has
been in the vanguard with the other institution in waging a heroic warfare
against ignorance. Its present habitation is on Washington Avenue.
With somewhat the same aims, the Academy of the Holy Names has given
unstintinglv for thirty-five years a primary, grammar and high school educa-
tion to 200 girls annually. Nineteen nuns compose the faculty and five
instructors, skilled in music and arts, come from the metropolis weekly for the
more advanced courses in the curriculum. Special attention is paid to music
and painting, and domestic science is given ample space on the programme.
The buildings, gray-stone in character, arc situated on Madison Avenue at
Robin Street, and to a visitor in the city their castle-like mien gives an impres-
sion of lasting service to the great cause for which they were set up — stone
upon stone.
Turning one's attention to those institutions of higher education which go
to make Albany essentially a collegiate town, the State College for Teachers,
successor to the one-time State Normal School, is at once the largest and the
oldest, it having been founded in 1844. More than 500 students are in attend-
ance at the institution, intent upon one of the two degrees, A.B. or B.S., and in
the seventy-seven years of its existence it has climbed toward a spot in the
State’s educational system which is astounding.
Kenwood, on the outskirts of Albany, is .justly proud of the Convent of
the Saercd Heart, founded in 1859 and purposed to the training of girls for
their life's work as Christian women. A pretentious red brick building looking
down upon the Hudson, surrounded bv 50 acres of campus and recreation
fields, is the home of 100 girls under the tutelage of 15 nuns. The curriculum
includes history, English and foreign languages, literature, mathematics, draw-
ing, domestic science, Latin and elements of philosophy, and brings to the
student one year of college work.

JSfm,W!Of -- »n -wrN ;v J . The Albany Medical College, the Albany Law School and the Albany
College of Pharmacy, founded respectively in 1839, 1851 and 1881, are almost
too outstanding part and parcel of Albany to need detailed description. In
conjunction with the Law School, the most complete and best equipped law
library in the world is found in the State Education Building. Its 80.000
volumes include complete sets of the court reports of the Federal and State
courts, of Great Britain and Ireland and the British colonics, with their digests
and all leading text books, comprising the most complete set of American
statute law in existence.
The city maintains four complete libraries which, with the 500,000
volumes at the beck and call of the student in the State Library, render Albany
the greatest fund of knowledge within the limits of New York State. Then, as
if to recruit the forces for the propagation of this great store of worth-while
elements, the State has set up, unbeknown to thousands of its citizens, a
Library School on the third floor of the State Education Building. The first
of its character in the world, its rolls evidence the attendance of half-a-lnmdred
students annually from 'round the far-flung world. Far-off China and the
Philippine Islands add their quota to the Scandinavians in attendance and make
the school perhaps the smallest cosmopolitan institution on the face of the
globe. 'Phe two-year course leads to a degree of bachelor of library science
and the five years will be rewarded with a degree of master of library science.
Special emphasis is accorded for training along administrative lines and at the
same time thorough attention is given to the details and routine of the varied
phases of library work, by the twelve members of the faculty and the seven
additional lecturers, in charge of the courses.
Of lesser prominence, but as zealous for the cause of education as their
more stern compatriots, is the Albany Deaf Oral School on North Pine avenue;
the Cloister Studios, Elk street; the Dudley Observatory, Lake avenue and
St. Rose’s College on Madison avenue. Could a community want for more?
With its history running back to an age when primitive America nestled along
a thin stretch of the Atlantic seaboard and the camp fires of the Indian were
to be seen a few miles off, Albany has steadily marched forward in the way
of education and left a heritage for Youth that is good to find. Year upon
year, decade after decade, century upon century, the great work has gone on
and this year brings only new visions and a future more illumined.
But the chiefest possessions of the city are the countless lives that would
never have been educated if these institutions had not been founded; the
intelligence that would not have been made greater by learning and literature;
and the unrecorded influences for the betterment of this and countless com-,
munitics to which those who have been educated here have gone to play a part
in the development of the country along the scope of America as we find it
in this hour. ,

“ Both. I have a wooden leg.”— Exchange.
Minister: “ Would you like to join us in the new missionary movement? ”
Miss 1921 : “ I’m crazy to try it. Is it anything like toddling? ”— Chap-
arral.
Deep gloom and difficulty was spread over the young stude’s face; the
experiment required mineral wool. He scratched his head and muttered,
“ Now, what the h—1 is mineral wool? ” Then the idea dawned. He set out
to sheer a Hydraulic Ram.— Voo Doo.
Little Boy (to lady scrubbing steps): “Say, Missus, is Johnnie home?”
Lady: “Sure! Can’t you see his shirt hanging on the line?”—Brown

She bent over him and gazed longingly into his one good eye. ‘‘Je
t’adore,” she murmured, every syllable a caress. He looked up at her and
answered gruffly, "Aw, go shut it yourself.”— Gargoyle.
“ Yes,” smiled one co-ed sweetly as she kissed another, “ I am doing
unto you as I would have all men do unto me.”
Some are born poor, others have poverty thrust upon them, and still others

“ Stephens is morally wrong.”

Yes, sir’ee. He wouldn’t even take a drink while he was traveling in
Cuba.”— Pelican.
“ I’m on my last lap,” gurgled Pctrarchia, as she held up her finger for

One Hundred Sixty-oneHis Last Words
A North Carolina negro was brought out on the gallows to be hanged for
murder.
“ Henry,” said the sheriff, “ have you anything to say? ”
“ Yes, suh,” said the condemned man, “ I’se got a few words to say. I
merely wished to state dat dis suttinly is going to be a lesson for me."—
Delta Chi Quarterly.
Famous Sayings of Famous People
Adam: “ It was a great life if you didn’t weaken.”
Plutarch: " I am sorry that I have no more lives to give to my country.”
Samson: “ I’m strong for you, kid.”
Jonah: “You ean’t keep a good man down.”
Cleopatra: “You’re an easy Mark, Antony.”
David: “The bigger they are, the harder they fall.”
Helen of Troy: “So this is Paris?”
Columbus: “ I don’t know where I’m going but I’m on the way.”
Salome (tiring of the dance) : “ Let’s have done with wiggle and wobble.”
Nero: “ Keep the home fires burning.”
Solomon: “ I love the ladies.”
Noah: “It floats.”
Methuselah: “The first hundred years are the hardest.”
Queen Elizabeth (to Sir Walter Raleigh) : “ Keep your shirt on.”
Diogones: “I’m all fixed for Saturday night.”—Panther.
Gleaned from the Movies
This is the way to make a woman love you:
1. Enter the room. As the female starts to speak, grab her by the throat,
hold her at arm’s length, and shake her like a dog. This is always a winner.
She will follow you to the end of the world.
2. Keep her eyes well blaeked. This is the most artistic way of gain-
ing affection.
3. Knock her for a goal if she starts to remonstrate. A straight left is
fairly good.
4. Never, above all, show the slightest regard for her. If you do, she will
regard you as a weakling, a being incapable of love, and one unfit for civilized
society.
One IIumlred Sixty-twoGLEANINGS FROM PRACTICE COURT
“The shutter fell and struck the plaintiff on the shoulder — and so on
down.”— Pardi, counsel for plaintiff.
“ We’re satisfied! ”— Purdy in trying cause.
“We’re satisfied!”—The same man in the same action a few moments
later.
Justice Watson: “ Your witnesses — these women — what do they do? ”
Attorney Eager: “They arc all married and — and reside with their hus-
bands.”
Most anyone when the papers arc not prepared: “My partner is deliri-
ously sick.”
“ She’s a widow lady.”— One of the wits.
“ My client’s credit will be ruined beyond repair.”— Goldstein.
“ We’ll hold this over; it is too good to let pass by on default.”—Justice
Watson.
“ The biggest liar always wins these cases.”— Heard from the spectators’
gallery.
Stearns: “ I have been out of town, your honor, and have found it
impossible to answer or demur within the time allowed.”
Justice Watson: “ Where? Atlantic City? ”
Stearns: “ No, in Boston, trying a murder case.”
Dean Fiero (dictating to “ Frosh ”) : “ There is a marked increase in
actions to restrain wastes------”
Following interrruption by laughter of class — “ Now, I don’t mean the
kind of wastes you think I do; there are other instrumentalities to restrain that
kind.”
“ I remember all my aunts, uncles, and cousins, but I give them noth
ing.”—Mr. Van Derzee in Wills in outlining the eccentricities of testators.
One Hundred Sixty-threeThe Dean (gazing upon a pile of Senior excuses for the month): “ I find
some by way of denial, and others in the light of special pleas, and still others
in the nature of pleas of abatement. Then there are the time-honored pleas,
most of which are satisfactory, and others of which are not satisfactory at all.”
Dean Fiero (in the Development of the Law): “I firmly believe in the
conservatism of the bar.”
In the wake of the remark came the Law-r-r hcel-razz, whereupon he
added: “ The bar you are apparently thinking of is seldom conservative.”
“ These Blue Laws we hear of so much would make it unlawful for a man
to kiss his wife on Sunday. But then, that wouldn’t be a great hardship for
a good many men, so long as it wasn’t someone else’s wife.”—Mr. Lawyer in
Contracts.
Mr. Lawyer: “ Would the father be responsible for the debts of an infant
son ? ”
Kcmpf: “ Why — (hesitatingly) — I should think so; a father is more or
less related to his son.”
“ Most men are only agents of their wives, anyway.”— Mr. Lawyer in
Bankruptcy.
Frosh: “ What is the first step toward obtaining a divorce? ”
Junior Shark: “ Marriage.”
" I couldn’t bear sending a woman to jail for refusing to testify; it seemed
so unnatural that a woman should act that way.”— Mr. Van Derzee in Wills.
" Of course, giving you the Practice Act is experimental. In theatrical
parlance— I am trying in on the ‘ dog.’ ”— Dean Fiero.
Mr. Alexander: “ Suppose a man should enter a shed and kill a pig found
therein. What crime would the indictment set out? ”
Pardi: “Murder, first degree, sir.”
First Frosh: “ I wish I had some fire insurance.’
Second Frosh: “What for? ”
First Frosh: “ I’ve got a date with the Dean.”
IN PASSING
If in some slight measure you have enjoyed this volume;
If you have passed a few idle, yet pleasant moments over its pages;
If you found a deeper joy in being a Law man or a revived enthusiasm for
the institution;
If in the years to be it can recall these memories of the mad, glad under-
graduate days which at their best are the sweetest for some, the saddest for others —
and yet the dearest for all----
Then most fittingly will 7HE VERDICT have achieved its mission.

THE 1921 VERDICT
Dollars vs. Service
Satisfactory Service is what you want when you
buy hats, shoes or furnishings. The question for
you to decide is, how much satisfaction do you
want for your money? 50 per cent? 80 per
cent? If you are a keen buyer you will demand
100 per cent satisfactory service.
The price you pay for use, for satisfactory service, is the final
cost. The day by day service cost is the real test.
