THE CO-OPERATORS ECORD BREAKERS -that is the distinction the Co-operators of '24325 have won for themselves. The activities of this organizatioh of the School of Commerce marks the fourteenth annual round of sociability and mutual helpfulness among the students. This organization had its origin in 1911, being at that time a class club promoted by Rev. John McCormack. The election of officers on November 28th was the signal for an outburst of the most spirited electioneering in the history of the Co-opsV After the clamor ceased the ttIdeal Ticket emerged victorious having succeeded in elect- ing Miss Marie B. Schenke as president, Leo. J. Wimberg, vice-president and Clarence Tabeling, treasurer. Miss Margaret Strotman of the Andy Gump Ticket was chosen secretary. Tuesday evening February 24th, the Hotel Alms was the scene of the annual card party and dance, the banner event of the year. Nearly one thousand persons attended, the largest number ever entertained by the Co- Operators. Adolph W. Haas, successful campaign manager of the Ideal Ticket was also the chairman of this affair. Miss Anna Schrage and Ed. C. Heile served as vice-chairmen. As a fitting ciimax to the yearts activities the banquet held on May 12th fulfilled its purpose. The members of the faculty were guests of honor on this occasionea tribute to their untiring efforts in behalf of the students. Ed. C, Bernhold acted as chairman Page One Hundred Twenty-six

The Jurists HE Jurists, a society open to all the students of the Law College, was organized in November, 1919, and has come down to us thrhugh the ensuing years with an ever widening scope in its purpose and activities. Originally designed as a debating society to foster interest in legal topics and also to promote forensic talent, it now includes in its program for the year a series of moot trials and entertainment of a social nature The moot trials have been of inestimable value in acquainting the members with the practice and procedure in court, and have always been replete with humor and fun usually arising from the earnestness and overvzealousness of the counsel and the mock-seriousness 0f the presiding judge. It might be said here that the Jurists have been greatly aided in their work by the best library facilities in the United States. Through the courtesy of Mr. Gholson, Librarian, they had access to the Hamilton County Law Li- brary, containing all the State and Federal Reports and Digests and more English Reports than have been collected in any four English libraries. Judge Marx 0f the Superior Court of Cincinnati has generously given of his time to instruct the students in the use of the various reports and digests, thereby instituting a course in legal bibliography only afforded by a few of the lead- ing law schools of the country. The members of the society have also gained much by attendance at trials in the State and Federal Courts Eocated in Cin- cinnati. To relieve the strain of constant application to study the Jurists have sponsored several dances at opportune times of the year. That held at the Claremont in May served as an exhaust for all pent-up gaiety held in reserve since the advent of Spring. Thus amid scenes of unconfined joy the Jurists marked the close of the Scholastic year. Page One Hundred Twenty-eikhl
