Cent a Pound Makes Up for
Weight Lost in Love Affair
One cent a pound for tlie ten pounds
of weight lost by Miss Elsie Skoog
during the week she missed school as
a result of a breach of promise to marry
her, made by Arthur Rosebraugh, was
the verdict of the jury at the court
hearing Tuesday evening.
Miss Skoog’s complaint as justice to
her wounded pride, broken heart, and
lacerated feelings, against Rosebraugh
was $250,000.
The couple, according to Miss Skoog,
became engaged on the night of April
20 in the Odd Fellow Cemetery, com
monly known as the ‘graveyard.’ The
engagement had been announced at the
Delta Zeta house of which the plaintiff
is a member and Mr. Rosebraugh had
told her he was going to order a pin
for her.
Mildred Burke, accompanied by Leith
Abbott overheard Rosebraugh ask Miss
Skoog to marry him. Miss Burke and
Mr. Abbott had been to a dance but
had left early coming to the cemetery
to rest,. Miss Burke testified that she
had been engaged several times and
was quite an expert in engagements.
She said Roesbraugh had told her he
intended to order a pin for Elsie and
that they were to bo married this sum
mer.
A letter sent to Miss Skoog from Se
attle bearing Rosebraugh’s name told
her he did not intend to murry and
that he was engaged to Mary Smith
of the University of Washington. Roso
braugh admitted ho wrote the letter
but said it had been changed. He de
clared he had never been engaged to the
plaintiff nor had never kissed her. He
said Miss Skoog was just trying to get
his money. He had told her that ho was
worth two million dollars in his own
name and that his father was a multi
millionaire.
Howard McCulloch, witness for the
plaintiff and a retired capitalist, de
clared that lie had proposed to the
plaintiff once but she did not accept
him because she did not love him. She
said she held love above money. He
said he had noticed a change in the
plaintiff and that her friends did not
hold her in such high esteem as before
she was engaged to Rosebruugh.
Leith Abbott^ president of the matri
monial bureau, declared he was engaged
to the plaintiff. He said he had gone
to a dance with her the night after the
track team had gone to Seattle and she
seemed in the best of spirits. He said
she told him she didn’t care for Rose
braugh, but he had lots of money. Ab
bott declared that he kissed the plain
tiff when he wanted to.
In the rebuttal Gladys Everett, coun
cil for the defense, made an extremely
appealing talk, bringing in the loss of
weight, the plaintiff had had to suffer,
the disappointment, the absence from
school, the blighted plans of a home, a
loving husband and a social position.
Ogden Johnson, attorney for the de
fense contended that the ten pounds
lost, the week’s absence from school
did not compensate the amount of
money and that the plaintiff being en
gaged to Abbott proved her scheme to
try to get the money. He further con
tended that the plaintiff was poor and
her tastfls had been cultivated and she
thought that Rosebrnugh being a mil
lionaire would afford an easy opportun
ity to satisfy her tastes.
Miss Skoog put up a very dramatic
fight throughout the trial and only once
during the examination did her voice
entirely fail when she was questioned
as to whether she still loved the defen
dant.
Mr. Rosebraugh appeared to be con
fident throughout the trial and dur
ing the examination willing to answer
in detail the questions of the opposing
council.
Judge Kendall of Marshfield declared
that both the councils put up excellent
arguments and showed much promise as j
amateurs. These moot eases will be i
staged every Tuesday until the end of ■
school.
LAME DUCK LINE
TO FORM TODAY
Defeated Candidates’
Ranks Add Recruits
Well, it’s nil over now. They’ve
gone ami done it. The political batter
has been smeared about considerable.
Yet there remains something to be
done—a deed of charity and mercy, and
the Lame Ducks are supposed to do the
good turn.
After the smoke of battle cleared
away, it was found that several had
been maimed and wounded. Crushed
in the rush for the best seats, they
found themselves groping in the dark,
groveling in the dust of their fortu
nate competitors.
So today the right royal prder of the
lame ducks will waddle forth and res
cue those unfortunates by the wayside.
Gather them in and comfort them in
their sorrow, for the lame webfooters
know what it is to stagger and falter
bv the roadside.
So they will parade today and gather
the unlucky ones into the order. They
will flaunt themselves before the world,
happy in the thought that they have
found a haven of refuge, even if it
hasn't a political atmosphere.
The lame ducks are the good Samar
itans. They will see to it that all the
stray sheep are brought to the fold.
GEOLOGISTS PLAN OUTING
Annual Campfire Party Set for June 1;
Scholarship Cup to he Awarded
June first has been selected as the
date for the annual campfire party
given by the G. and M■ Society. This
is one of the events of the season in
the geologists’ life. The miners and
rock artists journey forth to some dis
t int woodland nook and regale them
selves in company with the maids lucky
enough to secure bids.
The committee in charge taciturnly
refuse to discuss the plans for the af
fair, shrouding their activities in mys
tery until later. It is safe to predict
that beside a roaring fire, the profes
sors of the geology department will di
reet the cooking of the grub. The
miners will demonstrate to their fair
i friends that their ability in culinary
arts is as superior as their activities
in digging.
At the party, a silver cup will be
awarded to the junior in the geology
department, who has the best record
in scholarship. Previously a pin has
been given, but a cup, bearing the name
of the winner, has been decided upon
as a more fitting token.
