Gant have' Cof Bn Inflames A. and M Students Raleigh April 15.— Carrying a coffin with A. and M."s colors streaming from its handles, the Wake Forest students narrowly mis.sed a riot la^t night in which the police figured handily as a precausion. The Baptists were celebrating their unparelled vic tory and with a coffin and army sets of pall'bearers, they march ed through Fayetteville street to Blount and then to Merdith. Here they haulted while the college girls put appropriate music to t he march. They paraphrased John Brown’s Body and the rest with A and M’s body sing ing lustily “Pass around the cof fin and V/e’ll|AllTikeaPeep,” they^nad the Baptists in martial trim. At 8 o’clock a freight train bore 100 extra students here and they reinforced the rooters in front of the college. Baptist sis ters were as the sands by the seashore, innumerable. They waved their pretty pennants, sang stiring songs and made the coffin rise again to the shoulders of the boys. With two hundred intoxicatedly joyful baseballest, they left the college campus for mid-city again when the A and M. rooters got on the track of the coffin. Members of the faculty came up town to see that nothing seri ous resulted from it. In the mid dle of Fayetteville street, two formidable companies of other college met. There was no cof fin, but considerable cussing. The cadets scoured the city for the vehicle that buried their joy. It couid not be found. There was a rush for Meredith. The A, and M. boys had the crowd, a^id sing ing to the bare dozen of Juliets who leaned over the steps, th- y j recieved the shouts of tlie few who were conspicious their bravery. . By this time there was ment every where, The A. #id M people did nat want to row, the men who had the u ider their daily chfcr^e did Hat they appreciated the humi% tion of those who must stand : ard see themselves being buried on the campus of a girls college^ If there is a thing on earth t|iat makes a man mad it is being! a corpse with several hundred girls trained in singing, f urnishiag the funeral music with such in unco finedjoy. The coffin* w^ finally hidden, and despite a vig ilant search, the local collegiafts never found it. That it was tak en from the public view paoved a great stroke fo. peace. Had it been found early in the evening, there is a probability that several real coffins might have been nec essary today. Coble Grocery will meet any one's prices.
