A LONG NEEDED REFORM No longer the fair and beribboned

 Or the lovely young visiting dame, By the freshie or junior or sopn can
 be led
 To her seat at the critical game. No longer her voice she can joyfully
 raise
 In the Hitting and rollicking song, Or fix the great stars with her glori-
 ous gaze
 From the seats where the under-
 grads throng. For even the love of the bully old col Will slip from an undergrad's mind, When he sits by the side of a beau
 tiful doll-
 Unless he should haply be blind. He often forgets to get up on his toes And join in the general cheer If a damsel in pink with face like
 rose
 Is sitting trifie too near. The cheer-leaders moan that . stand
 full of James So affects the young fellows
 around. That in spite of the rushes and zo-
 yard gains
 Ihey seldom will utter a sound fellow intent on the bright shin-
 ing lamps, Filled with light as effulgent as
 dawn. Which gleam from the faces of
 charming young vamps, ForEets there's a game going on And so in the future If ladies appear On occasions when games may be
 tight, They shall not be permitted to put
 on the cheer heavy and dangerous blight. UT course they won't bar from all

 be kept in control For the girls will be parked by
