I know we’re not so smart as they, For they’ve gone to school for many a day. But you can bet they’re not so wise That they can’t be taken by surprise.

People looked from their windows to see a large number of children walking hurriedly down the street. They looked neither to the right nor left, but kept on following the sound of the bells. Finally they reached a large building, a door opened, and the children trooped in. The door then closed behind them. The children were awed by some people in this building who called themselves “seniors” and gave them the name of “freshman.” Why had they been enticed into this terrible place? Were they there only to make the rest of the people laugh and make themselves feel foolish? Surely these creatures were inhuman. “But, no,” they thought, “We are only afraid and we will conquer this peculiar race of egotists.” To carry out their plan they chose Elmo Snook as their leader. William Parke, his assistant, and Hoyt Paxton to watch the booty. Although they did not meet with success, the determination of this younger set so won the admiration of that branch of society called “sophs” that they took them to the forest and they all indulged in a weiner roast, and no harm came to any of them. “There is no feeling of uncertainty now.” the children said, “and after all. this is a nice place in which to stay, isn’t it?” Elizabeth Stedman, '32 President, First Semester
