Q E F THE - E , E Unlike the Biblical hero, our Sampson's strength lies in his mind rather than in his limbs. Here! Here! Here! Here! This was all that Michalak heard in his sleep for the first three weeks after he started to call the roll. Something should be done about procuring -a Carnegie Medal for this boy. I Boy, page Miss Solon, She is going to lecture us on what a lawyer should be and how she intends to live up to her name. One of the outstanding events of our school career was the evening when judge Kavanagh called on Mr. Torm, and bless us, if Arthur Torme did not respond to this misnomer, this last to his undying credit. ' T Buck, a back-east warrier, claims that he would rather be with those at the rear in order that he may save those in front. Perhaps there is some merit in his contention. - as On the other hand, we have never been able to fathom Dick Baker's preference for a chair in the back row. A Were it not for the fact that the young man has been mentioned else- where in this volume, we should like to comment at length on the meta- morphosis of Kid Sproger. This has been done by us and we shall only pass briefly, on the fact that within the year he should reach grade A in the mustache competition. We can never forget the first time that Terry drove us wild with clinking coins in his trousers' pocket while making a recitation. Even those directly behind him were unable to get the benefit of his remarks, but no kind of per- suasion would induce that boy to refrain from such a habit. A good deal of grass has grown since the day when Johnny Setecka was ushered into the class on the arm of his fond parent, and we have seen this boy emerge from his status as a' comparatively unknown youngman to that of a bustling younglaw clerk who liddles around the Municipal Court and makes hay whether the sun shines or not. ' Another boy who has undergone a great change is George Engh. George came to us about three years ago as a rather quiet young chap. Now we have him around in a cast-iron derby and talking loudly of absque hoc and other dog latin. George, why have you done this? Among those prominent on the benches of the last row during our sessions has been Eleanor Larson. This has been regretted by all, as we would like to see so charming a young lady as Eleanor in the front row. Our first impression on hearing K. G. Meyer's name called was that he was a Cagey bird, but we have since learned that he is so in point of initials only. . u 1925 or N? 4 ,X. ref? Page 151

THE. , THE MUSTACHE SQUAD E As mustached studes We show our airiness. Each content in his sphere of Hairyness. And the ladies are bound, . To have reasons sound, For being tickled into Wariness. CAN YOU IMAGINE- Dick, Baker performing an aesthetic dance? Stanley Buck delivering a perfect recitation? Doc Clark flunking Medical Jurisprudence? Oscar Strom forgetting to say: I forgot ? M. Ethel Corcoran saying: I don't known? Mary Solon reciting without blushing? Bill James attending every class in the Week? Kid Sproger not rivalling Demosthenes? Macauley coming to class on time? EHelmer Hansen Without his apple? DO YoU REMEMBER WHEN- g i Our Mary got sore when the back row boys said: Louder, please ? Prof. Pringle thanked Stanley Buck and apologized for disturbing him aftera brilliant discourse on Torts to which Stanley contributed by saying: Yes, sir ? n The private dances of the class became rough? i John Dillon with his gavel in Practice Court: Little order, please ? Little order was all he got. . ' Whence comes this disturbance? Our back row boys, Buck, Kennedy, Cervenka, Ballantyne, Gubbins. y Whois the most popular man in the class? Mike, mark me present. If some inventor could harness the jaws of Rice and Sproger, the problem of perpetual motion would be solved. y ZX 1925 C ax Page 153
