Zllrwhman iaiaiurg Ci-Xiternnnn Gllaazj CTOBER 2, 1922, is destined to go down in history and be learned by the children of future generations along witl1 October 12, 1492, July 4, 1776, and the date that the Nationals win the pen- nant. Be it known to all the world, here and now, that on the first mentioned date, some three hundred and fifty members of the Class of 1925, of Georgetown Law School, assembled in Hall No. I to be formally introduced to that exacting but beloved taskmaster, the Law. Modest, retiring Freshmen that we are, we leave to some disinterested his- torian of the future the joy of chronicling our glories to come, and set forth here only a sober, unadorned record of our activities since we have been the Freshman Class. Early in November, with Mr. Al Kane, president of the Senior Class in the chair, the Class held its first meeting and elected officers for the year. XVhen the smoke of battle had cleared, the following had been elected: Albert H. Kirchner, of the District of Columbia, president: joseph H. Hagan, of Rhode Island, vice-president: Maurice Mahoney, of Georgia, secretary: Charles VV. Stevenson, of Pennsylvania, treasurer, Theodore H. Carroll, of Connecticut, sergeant-at-arms.

And now that the semi-annual crisis is passed, it has been discovered that if all the different answers to the questions were put down in the statute books no lawyer would ever lose a case. There would be authority for every kind of action and no client would ever be disappointed. In the fullness of its joy at the passing of the exams the class celebrated by holding its first class function, the Freshman Smoker, at the New W'illard. on February 17, 1923. Eminent Congressmen, distinguished jurists, grave and learned professors, friends from the Senior and Junior classes, and the Freshmen en masse gathered to lay aside the cares that infest the day, to talk and listen, to eat. drink and be merry. The University, and the staid old Willard, too, We think will not soon forget that glorious Coming Out Party of the Freshman '25. Certainly the Freshmen never will, and once again we wish to express our appreciation of the work done by the committee headed by Chairman Albert S. Cain. The history of debating at Georgetown for the past year is a good index to the ability and prominence of the Freshman Class in that line of endeavor.
