LIVELY PROC NIGHT.
Rival Glasses Post Their Manifestoes
All over the CITY.

Perhaps the hottest proc night In
years at the University of Vermont struck
all over Burlington Friday night and
Saturday morning. The night was given
up to feasting on the part Of the two up
per classes. This done, the stern and sage
molders of college spirit directed their
attention to the antics of the sophomores
and freshmen, who had been nervously
floating about the city during the even
ing. The preliminary to the posting of
the procs is always a good, old-fashioneu
pell-mel, every-man- for-himself fight,
and that Of Friday night, or early Sat
urday morning, was hummer.
For it was on towards daylight before
the classes crashed, The clans Of the
freshmen had gathered at the Edmunds
high school building at 1890 o'clock,
while their enemies had assembled at the
Strong building. At about four o'clock
the two classes met on the campus The
encounter lasted for about a half hour.
Like most class scraps, both sides
claimed the bone. But because of superior
numbers the new class seemed to get the
better Of It.
Bernard Bristol of this city, a sophie
more, distinguished himself during the
engagement by climbing the flag pole on
the college green, and tearing down the
freshman pennant which had been
placed there In its place Bristol made
secure to the pole a green and gold
sophomore banner
After the scrap came the proc posting
The freshmen exhibited unusual daring
In placing their yellow procs in places
never before utilized for this purpose by
college men. One OF the procs is plastered
near the top OF the north side Of the
grammar school building, while the win

FELL INTO THE LAKE.
Cold WATER Tended to sober Up Bristo
Man and lie Cravvied out.

When arraigncd In city court Tuesday
day afternoon, charged with being In
toxicated, william Allen of Bristol
gave recital OF the occurrence, which,
had incidents which border on n drama
Of the serio- comic order. He pleaded
guilty and was fined IS and costs of
1919 with an alternative sentence of
ten days In jail
Aliens general appearance denoted
that he had been up against the real
thing. He said that he came from
Bristol to Burlington to look up mis-
wife, who left for the Queen City to
secure a mill position. He procured q
little of the balm of life to aid him in
his search and wandered across the
railroad tracks to tho wharf near the
coal yards. On he walked, across the
wharf. only to be precipitatcd in the
darkness into the Icy waters of old
Lake Champlain.
He saurmcd in the water. and, re-
leasing one arm from his overcoat
grasped at the wharf and finally sue
ceeded, unaided, in swinging himself
out of the lake. In the water, how
ever. he lost two e-dollar bills, his
only financial resources, while harsh
contact between his nose and the
wharf made the skin on his nasal APP
pendage equal to X. He pleaded for
clemency on the ground that he ought
to be back in Bristol attending to hi,
, children. He will probably serve the
alternative sentence.
