Condescension.Realizing that the opinions of great thinkers are always appreciated, the U. of U. Moot Court in council assembled, graciously condescended to assist President Roosevelt in the solution of the Japanese question in California. But the nature of the law and the interpretation of it by the learned Justices then sitting on the bench were such that a view quite contrary to that of the President had to be adopted.Sec 2. In the action of Chief Justice Bramwell against Associate Justice Brown for assault and battery committed in practice for the great Lex-Medico football game, the prosecution was ably conducted but nothing could offset the pathetic plea of insanity presented by the defense. Article III. Section 1. Athletics.The "Mighty Eleven" representing the Barristers did decide to defeat the Medicos in a game of football by a score not to exceed 30 points. ,Sec. 2. The Barristers, having lost the shingle from their door and having a good cause to believe that some light-fingered representative from the A. F. Fraternity was responsible for such disappearance, did issue a search warrant which was served by the sheriff of the Moot Court and his posse at the A. F. Frat. house, where the shingle was recovered, much to the shame of the members of aforesaid Frat., who, upon seeing the arrival of the powerful sheriff and his mighty band of deputies, did flee to the woods, leaving the cook to defend the house as best she could.Smenbments Amendment to Art. III. Sec. 1.Inasmuch as the Medical Department of the U. of U. is in its infancy, and none too strong for an infant, and in due respect for a request made by the Faculty that we should not defeat said department, we, the Barristers of the U. of U., did conclude that we would do nothing to humiliate or injure the Medics; that instead of defeating them we should play them a tie game. |
