The Spike: or, Victoria University College Review, June 1916

"L'Enfant Terrible."

"L'Enfant Terrible."

We understand that there has been quite a flutter in the dovecots of the Science Laboratories, through the idiosyncracies of the lab-boy, who, unable to remember the names of the students, whose record of work he keeps, hit upon the ingenious in place of their names. The "Spike" has been handed a number of these descriptions and they certainly are too good to allow to languish and die unknown. We therefore insert them here, and invite our readers to send in guesses as to the originals of these pointed descriptions—"Spots and specs": "High Cheek bones": "Tall and dreamy": "A pug": "Skinny": "Fat arms, talks."
