Too late to use paper, I used Hal. 1:10.75

Apropos the quote: Hunter is a drop out from that institution.

Contraction was the key. Easy sailing after that.

This one took me a while, I had to start over several times. The contraction, which is usually a superb clue, crossed me up; I finally got it by the short words 10 & 15, then guessed the first word. Thanks a million as always nikos1121!
