SIDE OF BANQUET Several weeks ago when the Sophs first learned‘that the Junior Banquet was to be a current issue, great as their potential energy. Many theories were advanced and commutated to the Sophs who were in phase with the situation. A lot of pulsations ensued and it was decided that the Juniors would have lots of resistence. The Sophs were puzzled just watt method they would pursue, but finally that the frequency of their meetings should be increased. Quite a bit of current opinion was handed to them but they did not take much of this ohm. The drill field seemed to be the starting box of all their ideas and plans. How all of their plansfarod will never be known due to the re lays established along the line. As both classes were afraid of leakage factors, secret meetings held and very little external knowledge disclosed. The Sophs were undamped in their efforts to get the toastmaster and used all their power to secure him. But alas! their most excited hopes dwindled when they found that they had not abducted the man they were after. They kept up with his bearings but by his multiple winding about over the country and the many paths Jay which he could get ohm proved ^e an overload for the Sophs. By the night of thd Jurrior Ban quet the Sophs were very reactive. The Juniors made their rush at the opportune time and the Sophs were defeated due to the inductive part played by the Juniors in the rear of the Mess Hall. The Sophs, were real sports and took defeat in the right way. But due to the sudden interference with their plans, the energy stored in the Sophs had to be expended in doing woeful work so they invited the few remaining Fish to go on an expe dition! Remote control of the Fish was excellently demonstrated as there is no telling watt hour the Fish all returned to their cells after hav ing spent that night circulating about over the complex areas near College. PARODIES ON FAMILIAR SONGS OLD The Old Oaken Bucket How dear to my heart are the days of enjoyment, When fond recollection presents them to view. When I. W. W.’s out of employ ment. Strikers and Bolshevists numbered but few. The mer^y old p." ol hall, ch _ saloon standing near it Those spots of divers' ui so happy to me. Its mirth and its laughter—forever you’d hear it And even the rude beer keg. I held on my knee. Chorus. The old oaken b ;e • keg, the ,'ron bound beer keg, The joyous old beer keg, I held on my knee. But closed is the pool hall and saloon that stood nigh it, And every loved spot has now van ished from view. How lonely I feel when I chance to pass by it, O, my faithful old pipe, I’m afraid they’ll get you. The beer keg is gone—in a well theyv’e entombed it. That sparkling old treasure so dear to my eye, They have cut off its head, and in chains they have doomed it To moulder and rot, and in darkness to die. Chorus The old oaken beer keg, the iron bound beer keg, 1 r Now a moss covered bucket it hangs there to die. —M. S. S. BAND DISCORD Our College Band struck their first discord the other evening when Crippen tried to make Robert King. Crippen said itwas asley done but first he had to floor-Walker. Walker arose as if going to rev eille and would have crawled his Frame if he had not drawn his Buie- knife. It only tended to Phillup Ben with Glezen when Davidson slipped up behind Crippen and, raising his foot which weighs a Clay-ton, gave him a North-cutt. This was done for a cheap Price but was rather Slovacek. Stetson Hats ..
