INITIATION To the tune of Button, Frosh two hundred fifty upperclassmen brutes and brutesses f?l proceed to torture and torment one hundred miserable, knock-kneed, cross-eyed poor excuses for human beings-freshmen to you, sir! In the silence of an inky night at Sanford ghostly shapes can be discerned floating down the hallways, figure after figure fcarefully camouflagedl descends the creaky staircase to weird dungeons below. Suddenly a muffled sound and a cry of tenor fill the air. One poor wayward freshman has met her doom: upperclassmen groan in heart-felt sympathy-she was such a pretty child! Watson holds no greater terror for an ignorant frosh than that of the paddling machine. Say what you will-cold water at dawn, alarm clocks in the graveyard hours. spring bouncing, any of the other methods are but child's play compared to this, the greatest of all sufferings. But didn't they look cute? Nothing like a bit of green to set off a frosh! Freshmen, freshmen everywhere-barefooted, horribly dressed. Students emerging from chapel one day were greeted by the sight of a lonely figure twirling a baton, animal sounds issuing from trees, and numerous other idiocies. Practically the last straw for the poor things was the 'convocation on Sanford's lawn and in Watson parlor where, under great pressure, they were forced to resurrect any hidden talent. But they all came through laughing and now there exists in no other place in the world such peace and harmony as reign o'er the campus eat Iamestown.
