-n 4,44 I N Qlhargv nf the Qbuigg Erigahe With Apologies to the Shade of Tennyson. This poem is respectfully dedicated to the present senior class, and was inspired by results of their last year's work. I. Half an hour, half an hour Half an hour onward. All in the smoke of exams Ride the half hundred. Forward the quizz brigade Charge for a grade, they said, Into the hell of exams Rode the half hundred. II. Forward the quizz brigade, Was there a man dismayed? Many there were appalled. Who had missed out or stalled. That was their reason why, They went to ride or die. So into the week of exams, Rode armed the half hundred. III. Wheeler to right of them Langsdale to left of them Morrow in front of them Admonished and thundered. Charged on with board and chalk Nobly they stood the shock Warned that they mustn't talk Within that awful den V IV. Flashed they their ponies there Whispers' soon filled the air. Boldly a man would lend A helping quizz compend, To his weakened brother. What if Hill could see That small epitome Straddling a junior's knee. All the class wondered. V. Burkhardt to right of them Roberts to left of them Sutton in front of them, Cautioned and thundered. Watched o'er with eagle eyes, Dauntless the squad defies The Profs to devise Why none had blundered. Then out from the medics hell Came those who rode so well, Nervy half hundred. VI. When can their glory fade O, the high grades they made. All the school wondered. Honor the ride they made, Honor the quizz brigade, Noble half hundred. Fought the half hundred. -J. F. N..

Apnlngia K J , It is with conflicting euzotions of satisfaction, aim-lfgfyj hope and fear that we present for the consideration and criticisni of the college and its friends, this first year book of the University 1Uedical College, KKTHE SCALPEL,H We realize that there are niany things we could do better on a second trial. It is always niore difficult to follow an uublazed trail and to create souiething without a pattern or a guide, than to pursue the beaten pathways of precedence. But we hope that our efforts have served to awaken an interest in this field of college endeavor in U. lll. C. and that the succeeding Junior classes inay profit by our errors and gain e.1'perieuce in our iniperfections. We have not attenzpted to produce a wofk of literary genius, but nierely to- leave with you a true picture of our college days, and if, in future years you chance to turn the dusty pages of this book and it brings to niind incidents and nienzories of happy days filled' with fellowship and good cheer, driving away the inists of tiine and distance, our work will not have been in vain. To the faculty, the nurses of the training school and the student body we wish to express our appreciation for their enthusiastic support and encourageinent. We are especially indebted to MR. F. B. IQYGER and W. R. DILLINGHAM of the Senior class, for their assistance in procuring Senior history, and to MR. D. S. LONG and' W. C. GADDIS of the Sophoniore and Freshnian classes. With the publication of this book the Scalpel board leaves the strenuous for the siniple life. May you be pleased with the results of our labors and your sentence be Well donef' Requiescat in pace.
