Hello! Yes, this is the law firm of Schoenburg 8: Root of the M. H. S. Bldg. Yes, this is Mr. Root speaking. just one moment please. Mr. Schoenburg, have you finished that document that I gave you? Well then come to the phone and read it to the president of the graduates. Hello. listen closely to this and tell us if you like it. YVe, Bernard Schoenburg and Sydney Root, attorneys for the ,Tune class of 1927, do hereby in compliance with the wishes of the aforementioned class, make, Qrdain, establish, surrender, bestow, impose, leave, bequest, and publish this, our last will and testament. We, the Class of June, 1927, being about to pass out of this sphere of education, do hereby appoint the above mentioned sober and sane attorneys as trustees to dispose of our valuable estate as follows: I. To the school as a whole, we leave the skating rink, football campus, baseball diamond, swimming tank, spacious assembly hall, pool parlor, and Phi Beta Kappa society. 2. To Mr. Hall and Miss Kavana we bestow the privilege of closing school on the day of the Cub vs. Sox opener. 3. To the dignified Miss Mason and the Tiny Mr. Chada, we endow the greatest privilege of conducting these gorgeous affairs, graduating exercises. 4. To Mrs. Knauss we turn over the BLACK DITCHERS BooK. May her pen be eternally dry. 5. To our beloved Dean, Miss Adams, we endow the exclusive privilege of teaching our ladies and gentlemen how to conduct themselves in public without reference to their books of etiquette. 6. To Mr. Davies, the obese marker, and to Mr. Kimmons, who wears those fire producing ties, we give the honor of trying to make chemists and inventors out of a bunch of blockheads. 7. To Mrs. Stevens and Miss Harries, we leave the tremendous duty of teach- ing the students about their respective lovers, the handsome Milton and the bald- headed Caesar. 8. To the rest of our esteemed faculty, fwe shed tears of sorrowj we surrender the dear little undergraduates. May the dears be disciples of Satan for the pleasure they give the faculty. 9. To the innocent Freshies, we impose the use of the lunch room. May they obtain their indigestion there. To the sophisticated Freshies, we leave the political graft of keeping all the wet towels they can find in the lavatories. Io. To the frivolous suffer-mores, we give the sole right to plant straw- berry bushes on the football campus. Lord bless them if they do not know their hectogons and oxygens, in Geometry. II. To our Juniors, for that last wise crack of theirs about we Seniors, we sentence them to guard the Welcome Mat in front of our school. I2. To the budding Seniors, we surrender all stubs of pencils, scraps of paper, inky blotters and elephants that we leave in our haste. May they safely keep these treasures in their stockings. IN THE WITNESS or A NUTTERY PUBLIC, we set our seal. Pagz 60 ' BERNARD SCHOENBERG SYDNEY Roo'r vf E. ..4..,,Ks - V-14..,,.mw1 N Mhu Adi? -- -E J-L-H e as -Q f..- T..-T. -

Our expectations were verified in the form of Ruben Landsman's face. Ah Ha-a-a-a. The strong and husky br-r-rute. Cave- man. We felt our biceps enviously. Soon many couples began to enter and among them we noticed together Mr. Marra and Miss Malpede, Mr. Meyer Goldberg and Miss Libofsky, Mr. Geller and Miss Geskins, and Mr. Ziman and Miss Ostro- vitz! Oh did they look gorgeous and how I craved to be there for just one little dance. In a lit of anger I gave the beam a fierce turn and suddenly it stopped. Looking into it we noticed a beautiful car rolling down a boulevard and in it, the fountain revealed to us, were seated our friends Eva Fine and I-Iymen Cohen. At the wheel was Max Taitz and beside him sat Mr. Harelich. Another car was trailing behind and in that was seated Jeanette Hirsch and Sam Jastromb, who was driving the car, and in the rear Mr. Rabinovitz and Miss Ostretsky. As the day was quite warm and from the baskets on the side of the car we could guess that they were heading for some place outside the city to spend the day. Soon we heard a burring in the air and sweeping the air with the light we saw an airplane traveling at the rate of about two hundred miles an hour. In it, as the fountain revealed to us, was seated Herman Weinberg, Sam Rosenberg, and slim Sloan. We also noticed a minister standing in it and something told us that nuptial rights were going on. Lo! to our surprise we saw Sam Mason and Sylvia,Lieberman being married. Now why in an airplane? I asked. Uh, said the guide, it is the belief of Sam that if he has an ethereal marriage he'l1 becomd a more prosperous astronomer in his future days. Suddenly the light was turned off and we felt ourselves slowly sinking into oblivion. The shining figure beside us vanished and we were asleep. How long we slept we know not, but we suddenly awoke and found ourselvesback in the old place with the guide by our side, the light of the beam shining, and the Fountain of Youth bubbling. Ive started to speak, but our guide put her hand to her lips and shook her head silently. VVe had to be satisfied with that. ' This time she directed the beam herself and soon it struck upon a beautiful marble edifice upon which was written in golden script Medill University . The powerful light penetrated the building and the guide informed us that a banquet was being held in one of the large halls of the school. All the Medill Alumni had come together for one great Reunion. At the head of the table sat Mr. Hall and about him the faculty. The hall was beautifully decorated and the toastmaster called on Mr. Hall to give his phase in adding to the merriment. As he did so we looked and wondered and suddenly with a great abruptness the scene around us vanished and we awakened to find ourselves in the big dark room raising our heads from the sea of imagination into which we had willingly dined.
