ing kicked Boothby or banging his head

scribed as of recoverable nature.

SOPHoMoRES PROCLAIM
SPHERE OF FRESHMEN

Brunswick, Me-, Oct. 2.-tSpeciaD.-
The Sophomore class of Bowdoin Col

upon the campus last evening. All
talk of organized resistance by the
unusually large Freshman class was
broken up by carefully planned meth
DDS of prevention on the part of 1917.
Early Friday morning the whole col
lege was set in laughter by the ap-
pearance of posters pasted about the
town which bore the following warn
ing of most dire calamities to Fresh
men in flaming red letters:
A WARNING.
You suckers of the class of 1917.
Beware of Friday night.
tSig) 1918.
Such action on the part of an en-
tering class would be almost unprec-
eden1ed and the members of the Soph-
omore class came in for much good
natured joshing by the upper classmen
until we'll confirmed rumor laid the
deed to certain practical jokers of the
class of 1916.
The proclamation issued by the
Sophomores, a product of the class
''wordist," lays down rules and regu-
lations whereby Freshmen may hardly
dare to claim their own souls.
