Of the faculty the volume says as follows: Tt beggared description" "The strongest point of the Yale law l school is without doubt it's faculty and as a class there is nothing too good we can say about them. The reason l for more than half of our number choos- | ing the Yale law school was because of | the reputation of it's faculty, and 1t is a l unanimous and emphatic vote that they | have more than satisfied the represen- | tations. That we love and honor our l instructors and appreciate their eff | ciency and ability is shown in the con- 1 and the one we consider the best teach l CT, as we'll as the many enthusiastic 1 compliments sent in by the class. We l think the most important element of | strength in our faculty is the deep and l personal interest and earnest devotion | to the success and advancement of the | school, and, of course, more than all, | the exceptional ability and experience, of all of them. Out of such a star | collection it is really difficult to partic- ularize and choose, especially when l personal admiration is in question.
 But in voting for the one to whom | it is most difficult to recite we don't seem to find much competition. Fifty one men think this honor is due Judge 1 Baldwin, nine men are in favor oi | Judge Gager, Judge Perry and Judge | Prentice receive one vote each, and one man wishes his vote divided, one halt for Judge Baldwin and one half fol l Judge Gager.
 '"There is a dead heat between Prof Beers and MT. Webb for the one tc
 whom it is easiest to recite, each receiv.
 ing sixteen votes. Prof. Robinson comes next with eleven votes. MT Ben ! nett receives SGNcilJ LuSC T Clili liN
 Judge Townsend four, Profs. Phelps
 and Wurtz two each, and the follow
 ing one each: Professors Woolsey
 Baldwin, Gager, Buckland, Bailey ant

 "The vote for favorite professor i! 1 somewhat one sided, though two mer just vote for them all Judge Town
 send seems to be the idol of the class
 and with the exception of a few com
 plimentaries he is the unanimous
 choice. The vote is as follows: Judgt
 Townsend 52, Prof Phelps 4, Judg
 Baldwin 3, Prof. Robinson 2, Professors 1 Watrous, Wurtz and Buckland ] each
 ''The contest for best teacher is nor
 spirited, but the same horse wins a

 follows: Judge Townsend 29 Judg

 each, Professor Watrous 2, and Judg
