The jury, a motley assortment of ex-cons and crowd-pleasers, was one of the District Attorney ' s major assets. With unbiased jury support, Coach Robert Reid, the D. A. of the day, subtly accused one comely newcomer of trying to be a big cheese on campus. She was one of the few given a guilty verdict and righteously chastised by having to wear Limburger Cheese on a chain for the remainder of the day. Two other worms refused to honor the sacred tradition of Button-Froshing and were condemned to digest a cup of raw egg. The executioner aptly hum- bled the brazen bravado of another freshman by feeding him a meal of flower, and applied punitive measures of a mudpack to one more defiant freshman for splashing mud on upperclass- women. Such trials were typical as the neophyte Freshmen were inaugurated into the collegiate social life by a concerned group of upperclassmen, who joined their wits, talents, and resources to form the esteemed judicial body of SCC, Kangaroo Court.
