Bullock. The Freshman is a favorite study of
the Seniors. Some even specialize in it. Harry Bixby has
been especially studious in this line. The Freshmen are very
timid. They never venture out of their room unless sent to
the office by Miss Ridnour. The doors have been locked to
keep them out. The Seniors have them so well trained that
they never enter the Senior room unless accompanied by an
older person. The Seniors first begin their study
of the Freshmen by noting their expressions as they appear
before the Seniors for the first time in Chapel. It has been
found to be an invariable rule that ninety-nine out of every
hundred try to look as if they weren't scared -- with the
result that they have a sickish and simple smile and are
chalky white under the strain. The next interesting point in
the study is listening to the shrieks and wails as they
implore Mss Brown not to let the Seniors come in to hear
their Rhetoricals. The studiousness of the Freshmen is
something the Senior cannot understand. And when the Freshmen take finals
for the first time -- ah -- and when they flunk for the
first time, the Juniors give them their first lesson in
cheating and the Seniors tender their sympathy and wish them
better luck next time, and at last under the excellent
tutelage of the Seniors and Faculty, they will bloom into
Sophomores.
Ziss-boom-bah!
Freshmen! Freshmen!
Rah! Rah! Rah!
