words 10 the sweet music OF the waltz
song, Dreaming"
Dreaming dreaming,
You're playing in your sleep;
Wandering in dreamland,
Where victories are cheap.
When you awake
The scores are not what they seem;
You thought you had ''cnch,' but it was
Just an idle dream.
Another good example follows:
Air-'I Love Thee, / Adore Thee"
loathe thee. l abhor thee.
For you certainly played dirty hall;
You are cutters; take your bittersi
For today you will lose crawl.
These songs are only INDUCED in by
those of the boys who can sing, but for
those not gifted with voices (and one is
assured that there are many such) the
following is a good example of song TO
be yelled, rather than sung:
Air-"Every Cheer in the Crowd Was for Toolan.''
Then wen cheer long and loud for old George
town,
Hooray,
The boys of the blue and gray.
Then well cheer long and loud for old George
Hooray,
The boys who licked Vir-gin-i-ay!
Georgetown's war cry is probably lit
tie mild, owing to her large number of
vocalists who preserve their voices for
the song. Here It is:
Che-Hing Ch-Ha.
Ch-Ha- -Ha-Ha.
Georgetown!
In the Columbian University the scribes
have contented themselves with writing
almost entirely for the yelling element,
although they have written one or two
songs to simple. sweet music. An example
s-t
Air-"My Country, 'Tis OF Thee
Columbian, we sing of thee,
And cheer for victory,
On this bright day.
We love thy spires and halls.
We come when duty calls,
Long may your grand old walls
Withstand the fray
Air-"The Streets OF Cairo"
They have never seen game of football,
OF the touchdowns they have never heard;
Yet they came and thought that they could beat
us
Poor little Georgetown lads
The college yell of the Columbians is of
a fierce, blcodthirsty character, and the
author is young Kentuckian, whose
class prophet prophesies a great future
for him in Indian wars and other full
dress events. 1t follows:
Give them the AK, the ak, the AK!
Give them the AK, the Az the axi
Where2
Right in the necki
Righ: in the neck!
Who?

The Maryland Agricultural College can
also boast of original songs. The follow
ing. was written by member of the '9S
class, to a rollicking air:
| Hike, Iske, there's nothing like US,
| We are the boys that can play football;
| We've got cinch boys!
Well rub it in, boys!
We were never known to fail.
o give us show. and We will win
For we're the team of '9s!
| So fear no harm, fear no harm, fear no harm
| For we're the team of '9S.
| So fear harm.
| Only in the screeching act is the M. A.
C. lacking in originality and in this she
uses the old standard yell:
| Rah, Rah! Rah!
Rah! Rah! Rahi
Maryland Agricultural College!
Sis-Bo-oo-om- Ah-h-h-h-h!
Among the city high schools many and
various yells are used. The combination
song and yell, which the Central boy:
employed to the discomfort of the East
ern High School in their recent football
| encounter. is a good example of the higl
schools reproducing qualities:
Umh- YAM Yam! Umh-Y Yam,
| Eastern High School
| Amt worth -.
Mary had little lamb
Little lamb,
Little lamb;
Mary had little lamb
| Its fleece was white as snow.
1t followed her to school one day,
School one day;
| School ore day;
1t followed her to school one day,
1t was against the rules.
Three cheers for Mary!
Three for the lamb!
Three for the teacher
That didn't give -!
Rah! Rah! Rah!
| Sis! Sis Sisi
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Baa! Baa! Baal
