The sophomores then came in and told the freshmen to go home, while the freshmen sat back and watched this ab¬ surdity. Chris Ross, the mascot, ran out to get the fresh¬ men to cheer. Reluctantly, they did so. however, once they got going there was no stopping them. Once in a while they ' d get so bold as to tell the seniors to go home. This created chaos in the gymnasium.
