l 1 1 1 PREMEDICS Eiga 1Bremehic3Kehietn The Class of 321, better known as the Hgreen horns or wise guys is composed of fellows from the city of Chicago and a few foreign lands. We have, by the way, two young ladies, whose duty it is to keep the fellows on the straight and narrow path. It seems that this path is too narrow at times and so some have fallen by the wayside. Eliminating these, I think there are a few worthy of honorable mention. Little Danny Clark, our president, is a persistent worker, always seeking to elevate the class to the very highest standard. This has made him the most popular young man of the class. Karbowski, the only living mortal envied by Annette Kellerman, is a hero of the park lagoon. His real business is life saving and as a side line he goes to school and acts as vice-president of our class. He almost discovered perpetual motion, but it was on paper and he couldn't make it work. The secretary is a rather quiet sort of a lad. Nobody seems to know much about him. His name is Miller and he is always on the job. Our financier, Johnson, is of the intellectual kind, but his great brain power seems to workin the wrong direction, so we call him the General Mischief lVIaker.,' He comes to school early enough each morning to call the janitor and build the furnace fires. I guess his folks are glad to get rid of him so they send him to school to pester us. ' Old Nicotine, our sergeant-at-arms, commonly called Doctor Loomis, is the speed merchant of the class. He is of the same calibre as our treasurer, only not so loud about it. Miss Lillian 0'Connor, our class historian, was born in Ireland. Altho her preliminary education was completed in America, she is one of the two young ladies in our class, to whom one of our professors referred when he said, ':'No matter what some people say, I think that when it comes to assimilating knowl- edge, the girls beat the boys all hollow. ' Doc Coplon, our class humorist, is another of our popular young men. Without his smiling face to look upon and his funny stories, the class would set a fair example of an old time eastern Quaker lVIeeting. The editor has nothing to say for himself. Page 168

Hear the wailing Freshmen, Heed not his falling tears. His rocking horse is broke of course, His teething age is here. See the gallant Sophomore, Behold his face so fair. How proud he is, how stern he is, His skull is filled with air. Hail the lusty unior His row IS tough to hoe He studies hard to earn his card But then his cake is dough Salute the mighty Sen1or He seems so great to be Appears so wise as he bids good byes And he IS oil to be care worn free DLH There IS a teacher named Danielson IS there not? Who on VHFIOUS occasions gets hot Wlth anger he roars as the floor he paws, While the students m1nd him not Pagz I69 , u J , ,
