SOPHS WIN BAG RUSH
FIVE THOUSAND SPECTATORS
WITNESS ANNUAL EVENT.
Battle Lasts Twenty Minutes After
Which Varsity Band Leads
Downtown Parade.

Mad1son.-Before a crowd esti-
mated at more than 5000 townspeo-
pie and university folk, the sophie
mores won the annual bag rush from
the freshmen on the lower campus.
When the final gun was fred the
sophomores had corralled eleven
bags, while the freshmen had only
four behind their goal line.
The rush was handled better than
any previous class scrap and there
was none of the disorders that have
usually characterized the event.
Bleachers were erected around the
field, which was lined off so that the
battling classes had the enclosure all
to themselves.
Shortly before the rush the sophs
were around the campus with big
auto trucks, picking up any 1919 men
they happened to see. Whole wagon
loads of ''freshies' were deported
from the city, and it is estimated that
nearly 800 men were kept out of the
rush by these methods. The yearlings
were bound and hauled out into the
country by their tormenters.
The battle lasted twenty minutes
after which the varsity band struck
up the varsity march and led the
downtown parade.
The only casualties that were re-
ported were 400 shredded shirts,
few tattered trousers and several
ruffled dispositions.
