Initiation Week Is Finally Over, Sophs Get Stung The biggest event -of the school year as far as the Sophomore class is concerned took place on the athletic field on Friday af¬ ternoon. This event was the tra¬ ditional soph-frosh brawl which commenced at 3:00 p.m. and never seemed to end. The men who mow the lawns labeled it a tremendous success; just why I don’t know. The order of events during in¬ itiation week were much the same as they were last year. On Mon¬ day, the majority of the fresh- ment were all decked out in their best attire of ties and beanies, and handed out cigarettes and gum like it was going out of style. CAGE DESTROYED On Tuesday, however, the pic¬ ture seemed to change somewhat. Those frosh who thought they could get away with it, wore noth¬ ing; nothing that is, but their their regular clothes. These were the boys who seemed to occupy the soph's cagё most of the time. However, after long deliberation those who were tired of waiting long hours In this prison of strange smells and crawling in¬ sects, revolted. The cage, under mysterious circumstances, was burned to ashes on Wednesday night, much to the amazement of the sophomores. The bewildered sophs, who took everyone to Kangaroo court, were never able to convict anyone of arson. The frosh-soph basketball game and the tug-of-war went to the superior sophs, while the foot¬ ball game went to the referees. The sophs came out of the base¬ ball game on the short end too, after frosh Tom Terrific pitched a no hitter. BOWL ANTICS On Friday came the big chance for the Frosh to break loose their chains of slavery. Both sides as¬ sembled on the field about five hundred yards apart. Each had handfuls of eggs, lettuce, potatoes, tomatoes; all the. ingredients for a good garbage salad. When emo¬ tions on both sides had reached their boiling point the ingredients were thrown around again and again until a tossed salad was the end result, but nobody wanted to eat it. After it was all over, ev¬ eryone happily embraced and it: vvas all a thing of the past.
