Canny Sophs Outwit
Frosh in Bag Rush

BY clever maneuVerS carried on un-
der cover of darkness the S~Ophomores
at State college succeeded in carrying
sufficient Freshmen out into the coun-
try for a days vacation, to win the
annual bag rush which was held Sat
urday afternoon. Friday evening was
the time of the most excitement. The
freshmen were banded together in a
large army and the sophs were unable
to do anything with them. When
drOwsiness called the wearers of the
green cap to bed, their numbers dwin-
died to a mere handful who were i'm
mediately seized by the sOphs and
carried away in autos. When these
were disposed OF in comfortable quar-
tiers some distance from town, the
sophs returned and invaded the sleep
ing quarters Of a large number OF
freshies and carried them off before
they were aware Of it. At 2:30 p. IN.
Saturday afternoon the bag rush was
scheduled to begin and only a few
freshmen were at hand to take part.
The sophs couldn't delay the rush in
order to give an opportunity for more
to arrive, SO the battle began right on
the dot, il not a little ahead of time.
The freshmen were not easily downed,
however, and re-infOrcements came in
from the country every few minutes.
When the final whistle blew, the sophs
were the winners of two bags, the
freshmen had one.

this week holding a hearing on the
Davis compensation case which re-
suited in a decision in favor of Mrs.
Davis. The amount involved was
about $2,40O. This case grew out of
the death OF Mr.. Davis, an employee

accident he suffered while working on
the streets. The city had insured its
employees under the workmen's COM

DR.. McBrien of Terre Haute, Ind,

common sense, and self control, among
many other qualifications. His other

pupils a chance because they often
had some talent latent that might be
developed. His lecture Saturday
morning, An Hour With Great Men,
was very much enjoyed.
Prof. S. Lincoln Smith, formerly Of
Aberdeen, but now leaving for Cali
fornia, is always appreciated by the
teachers of this county. His talks on
Noted Pictures are an inspiration to
every one. He had with him a won
derful collection of pictures and teach
ers were given a chance to secure very
good prints.
Mrs. Grace G.. TruaX of Sioux Falls,

able to help the beginning teachers

warnings have been given this nation

fields relative to the unrestricted i'm

Il is doubtful whether any other
American problem presents so many
