To them, this assembly, with the inspirational address given by the Hon. james G. Stewart, was an inaugural dispensation. To some of the Freshmen, at least, the acquisition and satisfaction of pref-legal requirements had been a struggle. The anxiety over the acceptance by and registraf tion with the Clerk of the Ohio Supreme Court, of their education endeavors precef dent to the study of law, was another stride to 'be carefully made before the actual pursuit of the study could begin with avail. Early in the school year, the Freshman class was organized with the following members as its oflicers: President, Wm. J. Bechtoldg Vice President, Ernest Fischer, Secretary, Miss Stella Vitzg and Treasurer, Edwin Heck. Freshmen members of the student council of the law school, elected by the class were Chas. Miller and Murray Paddock. The Hrst year students began the tour on the roadway winding through and over four mountains of legal exploration. Their courageous hope was that the road over the first mountain would be safely traveled and ascended, though fully aware cf the many lurking crevices and rocky surfaces that would impede their course, still render' ing it, however, traversable and of safe passage, The beacon guides, comprising the Freshman faculty, rendered their instruction competent and illustrious. With the willing assistanceiand direction of the faculty, the way was constantly illuminated. The journey, even for the Hrst month or so, readily quickened the mental acumen of these legal explorers so that a nucleus in the law began its accretion as the climbing progressed. Throughout the school year, the brave Freshmen continued their plodding upward in study and hope, so that, by the end of the year, the first mountain would be surmounted. Also, that they could worthily be acclaimed as conquerors, if not embryonic lawyers. ln addition to applying themselves to the curriculum studies, the class published several editions of The Frosh Legal Eye, the Freshman class paper. Many legal propositions, bits of humor and wit, furnished through the versatility of the editorial staff, afforded an instructive and entertaining collateral interest to the year's work. Aaron Weisan was EditorfinfChief of the class paper. In the fore part of the school year, the Sophomore class honored the nrst year class in having the ambitions, yet cautious and timorous, Freshman as its guests at the I I Q f -.- - ggi 1 53, Qt Fi 3 .Xi 2 P--QT4s:ees sig , ' 4 Yue,-,fff 'XS-c ' J' . ,F iilf ' ' PQ 1' x .g?

Here, every Freshman sensed keenly the cooperative and genial spirit of the second year class, This element has been demon' strated throughout the year as a living ingredient of, not only the Sophomores, but the entire student body of the law school. At the annual All Law Banquet, held at the new Chamber of Commerce Buildf ing, on March 19, 1928, a further impetus for diligent study and striving for a cherished goal in the law, was given the Freshmen. The notable speakers there inspired and further encouraged the humble Freshmen, firing them with new and greater zeal for even more serious application of themselves to the unusual opportunf ities offered by the law school. For the Freshmen, the first year of the study of law was, in a sense, one of gruesome and laborious toil, but with this labor and effort, the study was one of most intrinsic and fascinating interest. The first year class, members having climbed the first mountainous obstacle in their pathway, believe that their interest in and knowledge of the law will mount and accrete as time and study carries them over the fourth mountain. After that, the shadows of anxiety and uncertainty will be pierced and broken by the radiating beams. issuing from the rising sun, as the early dawn brightens on the horizon of Life, with a new day of Success and Service. -Granville Brooks WW!
