Two bold juniors advanced ln- to too close proximity to the seniors and were thereupon captured. The snlors tied up their hopeless prisoners and detained them for few hours. When they were liberated, their free dom was not voluntary on the part of the seniors, for these captives made their escape by a unique and unex- pected method. When the seniors saw their prisoners had no knives, hey felt that the poor juniors could lot effect an escape. They were -hereupon left unguarded. The cap- Ives watching their chances some now extracted some matches from thelr pockets and burned the ropes which bound them -.. ..
 The Juniors bound to take down the opnoxlous banner, arose in the dark or an early morning and arrived soon on the spot and started to pull down the banner. They were unsuccessful, though they worked unmolested for two hours. They decided to let their allies, the freshmen, have a chance at removing the senior ensign.
 This morning a band of freshmen arrived on the scene while three upper classes lndustriously studied the ex- plo1ts Of Caesar the orations of Cicero and tried to find the unknown quanti- ty in algebra.

But then some one looking from the win dows of the school discovered them The bell rang ending the first recita- tion and the seniors united with soph- omores rushed out, terrified the fresh 1es and returned in time for the second class.
