JUNIORS The junior class of this year found itself a good deal smaller Walter Borreson, who would have proven valuable to the basket- than it was as the sophomore class last year. Some of the fellows, in ball team had he not received an injury in a game which took him addition to this, have dropped out during the year. William Mullinger, from SChOOl for tWO months, and from the game for good. model of quietness, left on account of illness. Joseph Hackman, our JOSeph Weber who is to be next yeaiJs editor of The Micrometer. superlative in minuteness, left because of the illness of his mother. -JOS- G- Weber George Gerdes while not a regular member of the group, deprived us of the advantages of his extraordinary powers of disseminating non- -mia- sense by leaving us at Easter. This brought total membership down to nine, and we sincerely hope that each one of us will be back YE GOOD OLD JAMESON 35 TRIMBLE' next year. The following nine make up the class: Edward Dorsey, whose work on the basketball team did much toward bringing about such success as it did meet with. Stanley Riesenberger, who, by his acceptance of the position of business manager of next years Micrometer, helped Dorsey to keep the class out of the utter oblivion into which some of our bright young men from other classes warned us it was sinking. Loren Boerstler, who takes Mr. Thayer in earnest, but who shOWs his good sense in every other way by refusing to enter into any under- taking without thinking about it first. Oscar Immer, who made himself famous, first by migrating from Iowa, and then by demonstrating his propensity for memorizing trig- onometry formulas. Harry Heasel, who could never be induced to Work for The Mi- crometer, but who proved his good fellowship by saving many a rep- utation and sometimes a hunk in room 2V, just after lunch.

IHTETISIDE A handsome young fellow named Gust, Vowed heid get his mechanics or bust, But the stresses and strains, Gave him so many painse That he soon gave it up in disgust. tiCharlieh Wolfgang, who hails from New York, Had one good leg and one made of cork. He went in to swim, And'the good leg went in, But the cork floated back to New York. A spry little fellow, Glen Connor, Was a high steppin' rippin, dog gonner. But one autumn day He was married, they saye thd have thought that of young Glenny Connor ? Young Brenner, his hair full of hay, Came down from the country one daye He looked north, east, and south Till the roof of his mouth, Was terribly sunburned, they say. Clyde Ross, who's a farmer by trade, Worked as farm hand where candy is made. When asked to explain, His incongruous name, tiYou see I milk chocolate, he said. 24 The ambition of young Arthur Case, Was to be an American ace, But while up in the sky His gas tank went arye And Case camedeWn right on his face. An industrious young fellow named Ditchen, Chose concrete rather than switchini, But he made such an ass Of himself in each classw That now he slings hash in a kitchen. Now E. VViIliam Oesper, the Third, Was a likable sort of a bird, But wine, women, and song, Made the poor boy go wrong, 01' at least thatis what everyone,s heard! Ray Herweh, a young- engineer, Liked to have his good old fashioned beer, Till the yeast with a pop Brought a neighboring cop, And now he,s locked up for a year. ttHob Atchison, who's usually late, Hopes Ecker wont give him the gate, Since the mechanical ad. Of his Ford is so bad That it's closer to nine than to eight. E. William Oesper, Jr.
