SOPHS WON
Startling Feat With CON b<ings
Down Freshman Flag al Cs&sege-

College spirit and class spirit, muf-
fed for three months by the S. A. T.
C. at Alma college has broken loose,
particularly is this true Of that mad
ness known on the campur a. class
spirit, which made it's appearance
yesterday.
The Freshies, unaware Of the fact
that the flag pole at the college was
not 70 be used for class rushes and
other things smaeking of ~cIass,
conceived the idea Of putting the
class flag bearing %, on the flag
pole, feeling that with their superior
numbers that any attempt on the
part of the Sophs TO tear il rows
would be vain.
The Sophs, like the Freshies, real
ixing that il was foolhaxly for them
70 attempt to fight through the
Freshies and climb the pole and poll
down the flag, thereby winning ths
hchors of the day. They were deter
mined, however, that down il must
come, and down it did come, because
the Freshes had forgotten that three
months of S. a. T. c. training, before
the close Of world war leads TO BIG
ideas.
The SOphs had one and "Bin'
Richards was elected to carry it out
1t was nothing else than to shoot
down the Freshy emblem Now Bill
is the lord OF the campus, in three
shots he had severed the rope that
held the Freshies bunting aloft, and
brought victory TO his class.
