t X . 6 i E Torts and Reiorls 'Member the time three years ago when we bashfully and quietly matricu- lated at 305 Lake View Building? Everything was new and strange. The first year we industriously waded through the fundamental subjects of the law. When we entered our junior year, we had made many life-long friends, had learned how to study to get by, and our beloved teacher, Mr. Guernsey, had issued his annual warning of the traps and pitfalls of real property, evidence, etc., in the second year. The third year found us comfortably situated in our new home. Of course, being Seniors, we had to dignify the place. And now, fellows, we're through. Wally ' O'Brien and Osk Strom are seriously considering going into the pugilistic class in order to make expenses until they get established. Kid Sproger has consented to be their trainer. During the entire three years, Bernie Garner has maintained his position as the highflyer, of the class. Whenever the air gets too thick and hot for him, he borrows an aeroplane and drifts along on the cloud banks. T Dick Baker, the mascot of the class, sure can grow a mean mustache. But, Dick, it is sapping all the life away from your hair. Soon it will be too late for Herpicidef' The Chicago T 81 T is now so firmly established by the addition to its staff of such capable men as Tom Smullin, our quiet friend Modjeska, jack Dillon, and Wally O'Brien, that the state will undoubtedly permit it to reduce its reserves. . The class is mighty proud of the Misses Corcoran, johnson, Larson and Solon, who stuck it out for the three years. More so. because they are real good scouts with a twinkle in their eyes and not just grinds. When it comes to gray matter they top the class. - V Wonder if we'll find Michalak calling the roll up yonder ? Be a good boy, 'Mike, we want to hear your voice again. e The gentleman of the class-our good friend Art Vlfatson-maintains that passing the ,Bar in july means an awful lot to him. p Jennings and Jurewicz believe that every man should have a most liberal education. They say that their Senior year has made a graphic impression on their cerebellums which will always bring backpmemories of dear old Kent. Don't forget, fellows, we are now alumni and must support Kent athletics. . Miss Scheiner's cheerful voice and smile, and Mr. Grover's stub cigar are synonymous with Kent 192 s Page 147
