Need we mention names? XV'ell, if we tried very hard to impress these two men We might have gott-en green trying! So, here goes: Along about the latter part of August, when the desul- tory days were well in vogue, two men, student-like in ap- pearance, met on the street, shook hands, wept a few tears over each others shoulders, and, sojourning to a nearby 'lrestaurantf seated themselves at a table, ordered two, and, in a very few minutes, were deeply engrossed in their half-whispered conversation. Little did either one of these sun-burned, smiling-facecl yOuths imagine the innocent- looking man nearby was their mutual friend ttheirs and the faculty'sl, Btolz. What a metamorphosis can take place in one single manehow little did this man with hat pulled down over his eyes, collar turned up to his ears teven though it was AugustL paper jammed into his face, look like the one-time few-days' President of the Class of l071 lTwas true, too true, and yet our world-famecl Historian. Williard C, Gott, sayeth, tho lo7 will stoop to conquer! We will leave this third party, to be resurrected in his proper role later in our narrative. These two l'Glsi' fm- ished their Hluneheonf' got up, wept once more on each others shoulders, as did Joseph of old, and departed But these meetings were resumed at intervals during the re- mainder of the summer, and when the day for college ar- rived these men were prominent on the scene with a candi- date for the Senior Class Presidency! Up and down the rooms strutted the two bosses? with the proud and promv ineht candidate, with locked 21mm, between them! Who can this favored candidate be? Head erect, chest far out into space, high stepper, and Where, or, where, have we seen him before? Ahehaea! ,Tis the Duke of Splindeman, in all his glory! By the shrewd, clever and indefatigable work of his two cohorts. each and every man in the Senior Class was duly ap- proached and spiked for the coming election, being spoken to later by the candidate, who was extremely enthusiastic about his platform, which3 as he explained to each man individually, was to this effect: that winning smile!
