Things That Interest Berkeley Circles
Just Now,

The ophomOre-freshman fight on the
heights to the rear Of the university grounds
that ragged Saturday while the track athletic
contest proceeded below did not result, as il
seemed to the spectators and was reported
yesterday. in victory for the sophOmores,
but just the other way. On the night before
charter day the freshmen placed huge
49, in the white cloth on the bill, but the
willy sophomores, biding their time until the
freshmen left tore up the 800" and substi-
tute their own "95." OF course the next day
big fight occurred, which proved drawn
battle, and both figures disappeared. Sat
urday, however, the freshmen determined
to take another stand, and at IL O'clock
twenty-six of their most stalwart men
placed the '96' on the old battle-ground.
At 2 o'clock twenty-four sophomOres,
climbing TO the hill above the freshmen,
locked arms and descended on the enemy.
The battle waged for an hour and the
sophomoTeS at first had the best OF it, but
the freshmen soon turned the scale and tied
up the entire twenty-four of the others. AS
ropes were scarce they tore up their oppO-
nents shirts to serve instead. And then, to
crown the humiliation of the ANONYMOUSLY
bound Sophomores, a camera was sent for
and picture taken of them.

After the severe stand taken by the
faculty last year in regard to the Bourbon
burial it was feared the old custom would
have to go by the board. However, in an
interview with President Kellogg, the UreS-
ldent OF the freshman class learned that
the faculty had no objections to the cee-
bratiOn of the Bourbon burial or the de-
tense OF their procession and coffin if at
tackled by the sophomOres, but that there
could be no kidnapping whatever.
These sentiments are very satisfactory to
