•• The vicious beast is lured by thirst And mad desire for human gore. But if we watch we see him first And fell him to the earth before He lacerates us with his claws. But we can ' t dodge the hypocrite, That masks his face, conceals his cause; But duped and flattered, we submit. The man who dares not face the foe That red with anger seeks to slay. We brand a coward, so all may know The craven heart that runs away. But weak, ourselves, we all condone The sycophantic, bland, poltroon. Who lacks the courage to disown What may not leave him quite immune. And yet we all who know his breed, And know the poison in his veins. Let him still live and thrive in greed. When he should rot in clanking chains. Give me a man. a candid man. Though blunt and brusque and hoarse, That speaks his mind and shows his hand. Though rough and soiled and coarse. The yugca

•• ' A THE COLLEGE SENIORS HE College Seniors, though few, make up in quality what they lack in actual numbers. Each in his own way is illustrious, notable (not notorious), and distinguished. There is a certain general distinction attaching to the class as a whole, because they are the first to get degrees from this school, blazing the trail and all that, you know. There is a rule that the first shall be last, but then — there are exceptions to all rules, and we hope that the case of the College Seniors will be one of them. Really, each student in his own way is representative of the school along some line, and each leaves behind him a record of scholarship of which he may well be proud. Takino them up in alphabetical order (two of the alphabet include them all), we come first to Mr. Graham. Remember it is the alphabetical, and not the chronological arrangement which we are pursuing. Wynne has been prominent in many ways since he entered the school. He played football in 1917-18 and 1918-19, and basketball in 1915-16, 17-18, tnd 18-19; was Athletic Editor of the ' Tucca in 1917-18; was Associate Editor-in-Chief of the Yucca in 1918-19; was a member of the Students ' Publications Council in 1917-18. and 18-19; was a member of the Press Club in 1917-18 and 1918-19; a Reagan; Top Sergeant in the S. A. T. C, and President of the College Senior Class. Next comes Mr. Guest, whose ability seems to be evidenced most decidedly in two activities — namely. Athletics, and driving a King car. The school is proud of Fatty for his work in football in 1918-19. Miss Hancock is third, middle-man of the five. She has been prominent in the school throughout her attendance here. She was a member of the Students ' Publications Council, and secretary of that organization 1917-18 and 18-19. She was secretary of the Press Club in 1917-18, and was a prominent Mary Arden. We believe Kathryn would be a good lawyer; not that she has any of the well known characteristics of the profession, but in her picture she looks as if she would make good doing that or almost anything else. Miss Hatch comes next, with a splendid grade-record. Eva was a member of the Students ' Publication Council 1917-18. and 18-19; a member of the Mary Arden Club, and of the Lillie Bruce Dramatic Club. Mr. Horton brings up the rear. Carl is really overworked, as he himself has said. He is a strong Reagan, and was president of that organization in the second term of 1918. He was vice-president of the Senior College Class, vice-president and a cabinet member of the Y. M. C. A., a member of the Lillie Bruce Dramatic Club, and sergeant in the S. A. T. C. The yugca
