Some came up from the eighth grade where they had been engaged in filling their minds with the honey of wisdomg some were fresh and green from the far countryg others came from farms, where they had been engaged in tilling the soil. These seekers of knowledge were lead by certain learned women, namely, Sara of the house of Hartzler and Mary, of the house of Myers. And it came to pass, t-hat as they entered this land they were received with great rejoicing and wishes for their welfare by those who, it was decreed, should henceforth lead them in the paths of knowledge. Likewise, it came also to pass that they were received with a certain malicious glee by a renowned band of wild beings, called Sophomorites, and who, because of their fierce taste for Freshmen blood, did pounce upon them daily and nightly and did cause them to suffer great things and to say in their hearts, Behold, olessed be the name of Education, for because of it have we endured great torments, both of the body and of the mind. Verily, verily, have we been martyrs 'to a great and noble cause. But, as they dwelt long in the land, they fell in with the customs of the inhabitants thereof and their strangeness wore away, and they became as one amongst them. Now, it so happened that, soon after they entered the land, they were one and all seized by a strange infirmity, which did cause them to act with much fierceness and strangeness of manner, and to grapple and wrestle with their enemies, called the Sophomorites , Ujunioritesu and Seniorites . Wise men were called who did examine them with much care and pains and did finally pro- nounce the infirmity Basketball , while some declared it Football . The wise men did disagree as to the names of the diseases, because the symptoms were sometimes very different from each other. They did finally distinguish the name in this wise: that, called Football, was a disease which led the people to attack their enemies called Other Schools and in these battles the Sophomorites, juniorites, and Seniorites joined with the Freshmenites to help defeat them. That diseasecalled Basketball only caused them to light amongst the four tribes inn the land. And they, were sore afraid until the wisemen did declare and did proclaim to them that the malady, while it needs must be contagious and likewise sometimes fatal, yet it was a necessary evil, and which even they knew not how to cure. So, with many anxious fears and dire forebodings, did the leaders allow the disease to run its natural course, and lo! none were killed and but few seriously injured, whereat there was great rejoicing throughout the land. - fzsj
