Freshman h A "f" Dousing Village v First Year Men Lack Ability to Perpetrate Pranks and Escape As Aneir vvuy superiors, the Sophomores, Have Learned to Do. ByJ. D. Winslow There are some freshmen that have an extraordinary propensity for involving them selves in scraps. They see their older brothers, the sophomores, play pranks and escape. In their reasoning they do . not see the reason why this is so; therefore, they essay to - emulate them, much to their sorrow. Perhaps the sophomores escape unscath ed because they have been taught slyness through the entangle ments of their first year. Regardless of all the reasons, freshmen usually are apprehend ed. A particular group of fresh men was holding a bull session, m which they were so inspired by its delights that they were induced to extinguish all lights. TnV watched . the shadowy forms of passersby enter the dormitory. A brilliant idea en- tered the head of one of the Participants. He had seen at least one sopho- more toss water uPn the neads that passed below. This marvel- ous mind conceived brilliant idea of lowering it in paper cups. The first paper he saw was ROOSEVELT GIVES LEAD TO YOUNG IN PARTY FIGHT V i i Hoover Continues to Gather More Votes Than Other Candidates. Owen P. Young supplanted Governor Franklin D.

ICJ Cop With Water stationery with his hometown address upon it. After having carefully made two cups which he filled with water, he stationed himself oX the darkest window. Patiently he , watched for some unfortun ate who would furnish the best entertainment. After a short wait he saw approaching the person who best suited his pur pose. Throwing all caution aside, he disregarded the fact that the man was extremely large and let the water go. The falling water narrowly missed the person. Thinking that he was perfectly safe the freshman prepared to sleep off the effects of all the exhilaration caused by the excitement of perpetrating this contemptible trick. The policeman located him under the shower, and a penitent kid confessed to his crime. Realizing that the lesson was sufficient punishment for the freshman, John Law of the cam pus departed. This freshman now is an excellent - example of goodness becoming an inhabi- tant of the Carolina campus.
