A The real event of the evening was the hockey game between C.B.A. and Law School. This game was unexpected in its exhibition of team work and good skating. The only score was made in the last of the second half, when C.B.A. slipped the puck into the net. An equip- ment relay race, the egg and spoon race, a suitcase race and the 4.40-yard race were then held. After these many interesting events the R.O.T.C. gave an exhibition of drilling, and athletic letters were awarded to the varsity baseball, track, basketball, tennis and rifle teams.. Everybody had a mighty good time both from the viewpoint of quality of performance and its length. It is interesting to note during this review of the yearls activities that most of these annual affairs have started this year. This is surely evidence enough of the kind of spirit that the B.U. students are showing. About this time Ima A. Shiftah visited B.U. and at once converted C.B.A. heathens into its mystic order. lts victims were people of all types, with our fair co-eds, professors, janitors, ofricers of the military department, clerks and secretaries and last, but not least, our own Dean Lord. The insignia is a product of a well-known paper clip manufacturer, and it is whispered about that the sales manager for that tirm has many original ideas for increasing sales. Naturally such a large and powerful organization created enemies and Anne T. Shiftaz, a sister of Ima, began to operate in full force. Anne Tis insignia is a platinum wire paper clip, and many worthwhile studes were proudly wearing this clip with deserved pride. At present writing it has not been decided which manufacturer has sold more clips, but each organization proudly claims the superior number. The most unusual and unwelcome occurrence of the school year was the explosion on thc third floor in the suite occupied by Oscar Morris. The blast shook the entire building and completely demolished three rooms. The skylight and live windows were shattered, and pedestrians walking along Clarendon Street were hit with flying glass. Two students who were in Room Q were blown into the library, arriving at the latter place after enjoying a short but most exciting journey through the atmosphere. Upon stock-taking of their personal welfare, both discovered cuts about the face and hands. They were extremely fortunate not to have been more seriously hurt, and B.U. was also fortunate, for classes were usually held at the time and place where the explosion occurred. On Thursday, March 16th, about 400 members of the Sophomore and Freshmen classes gathered at Huntington Chambers for the annual smoker given by the Sophs. Corncob pipes, tobacco and matches were provided, and the fellows surely appreciated them, if the amount of tobacco smoked can be used as a criterion. The features of the evening were many in number and assortment. The R.O.T.C. Band gave selections to liven up the fellows at the start. Art Bushell, chairman of the com- mittee, introduced Dean Lord. Following the Dean were Frank W. Cook with impersona- tions and stories, Tim Ward in a chalk talk with sketches of the Dean, Professors Babb and Scammell, Art Bushell and Andy Anderson, and Art Tileston with Erving Plummer at the piano, singing selections of various nature, including one that will be used in the B.U. Show. Professor Babb then spoke of his college days at Oxford, which were mighty interesting. Several boxing bouts were the next on the program, and an exciting time resulted while the boys were in the ring. 1 262
