shoveled into wheelbarrows and carted
off to the paths for distribution. 1t
was spread out to a proper thickness
by gangs armed with tampers and aft
erward rolled over and over again with
heavy roller.
In lieu of horses the students turned
themselves into steeds and dragged the
rollers and scrapers after them. This
idea was conceived by Sam Stow, the
big left guard of last years varsity
football team, who was lucky enough
to be appointed foreman. The steeds
were mostly freshmen, who were forced
to submit to a hitching process by their
upper class superiors
GRAVEL RUNS SHORT.
BY some oversight the supply of
gravel was allowed to run short this
afternoon and it was necessary to call
a recess until thirteen more loads could
be contracted for, the interval being
occupied by the students in running
races and doing other stunts" Among
the diversions was the ducking of Rich
ard O'Connor, former editor of the
Daily Californian. in the stream of
Strawberry Creek, this punishment be-
ing meted to him for playing hockey
for half day and then appearing in
his Sunday clothes.
At noon, regardless of jumpers and
overalls and old clothes, the toilers
formed the lockstep and marched to
the basketball court adjoining Hearst
Hall. There they were welcomed by
the coed contingent, marshaled by
Miss Margaret Henderson, chairman of
the women students committee The
pleasure of passing out the feed" was
for all the women students, who had
gathered there in response to the call
of the president of the Associated Wo-
men Students, Miss Martha Rice. The
committee of assistants consisted Of
Miss Sarah Mclean, Belle Coolidge,
Edith Hatfield, Eva Gray Nettie Haw-
kins, Madue Cope, Bessie Forse, Ma
talie Wollenberg, Bessie Trowbridge,
Alice Phillips and Marion Craig.
Sandwiches and pie and doughnuts
and tarts and coffee were served to-
the hungry and clamorous from tables
spread in the middle of the court.
Among these the students swarmed
and received their hand outs from
their coed friends. Wooden plates
served in the place of the more gen.
teel kind and one tin spoon did duty
for coffee and pie alike.
HANDIWORK OF WOMEN.
The whole feast was the handiwork
of the women students themselves, who
assessed themselves Is cents apiece to
buy the bread and -four and coffee.
Hearst Halls cooking range furnished
the heat and there the coed pastry
cooks toiled and toiled all morning on
the pies, while the less experienced kept
two hands going on sandwiches and
lemonade and beans.
The feast ever the workmen spent
what remained of their hour of grace
in giving vent to their college and
class yells. The "Oski WOW wow and
the Give me the pie" and other IA
miliar yells were hurled back and forth
across the court. Little Mini" the
