“

An interpretation A free interpretation of the work starts at the left with the lonely bewildered figure of a freshman hiding behind a Signal Corps insignia, half of him dressed in clothes of loud civilian check, the other half of his identity lost in the regimentation of freshman life. Next comes the flambeau of the Ordnance behind which is a foaming mug of beer with musical notes trailing off which represents the traditional wine, women and song of college days. Arrayed around this part are some of the cadet non-com- missioned officer ' s stripes and officer ' s diamonds and buttons which are interspersed throughout the mural. Overhead two bombs fall on the scene. Next a military figure whose head is in the shape of the Engineers ' castle insignia comes marching along. Off to his right are two abstractions which represent well-known Clemson expressions of speech. One showing a bullet piercing a fried egg stands for that every day messhall term shoot the eggs. The other with a bullet piercing a bullseye represents the old expression shoot the bull ' ' used when referring to meat or conversation. After some floating abstract forms comes the head of a tiger holding between his sharp teeth a small Carolina gamecock. Beneath this tiger are the crossed rifles of the Infantry and to the right the wings and propeller of the Air Force with the three buttons of a cadet captain in between. Next comes two hand grenades pictured by their nicknames pineapples with leaves attached. Sticking up from behind a mass of objects, including sleeve bearing first sergeant ' s stripes and the swords representing Armor, is a face with a puzzled expression and two sides; one the same as the first freshman figure, the other a military one with a cap. This apparently represents the dilemma of a Clemson student pondering the civilian versus the military. Symbols dominated by the insignia of the Quartermaster Corps and the ROTC, bring up the end.
