THE UNIVERSITY COURIER.
7
A NEW BIRTH.
Another University Paper is brought into Existence-The K. U. Lawyer.
A meeting was held in the court house on Monday evening for the purpose of organizing another University paper. Mr. Troxel thinks there are not enough University publications here. This new Journal is to be a law school paper exclusively and will from time to time exhibit the bright sayings and also the "masterly efforts" of the law students W.H.H.Piatt and C.R Troxel each claim to be the head of the new paper.
After a most interesting discussion and the construction of great air-castles, the staff of the paper was finally selected.
Mr. Galen Nichols, whom the girls say has most bewitching eyes, will attend to the heavy editorial work. He will be shadowed by Wm. Win ers, John L. Games and the only C. R. Trogel, or as the world would say "that curly headed war stallion."
Judge Lamb will carefully "stasche" all publications which come to his table and reproduce the most interesting items in the exchange column.
John Little will arrange the "literary" matter, and incidentally cuss the printers, should any typographical errors occur. Rolla Mitchell will see that the paper has an extensive circulation, and last but not least, the ad-rustling will be done by no other than W.H.H.Piatt,whom everybody knows.
The name—well it is to be called the "Kansas University Lawyers."
That is a pretty big name, but Mr. Troxel says it will be a big paper, too.
