The annual Colby freshman banquet
took place last evening and from the
point of view of the members of that

the grange Of that town served fine
banquet to the 200 or more present.
Soon after the feast was over the
sophomores began to arrive in small
groups. but the freshmen very wisely
allowed them to come into the hall
and the usual battle was avoided. Aft
er dancing for a short time the party
Gisbanded and everyone came back to
Waterville to celebrate Co'by's victory.

snake-danced through the town and
down to Castonguay square where all
OF the members of the team, the
coach and all other athletic authori-
Ties were cheered. One of the great
est pieces of news, to the freshmen
at least, was the announcement by
PRESIDENT Daniel Shanahan that all
OF the freshmen rules would be off
LOT the rest of the year. Returning
up College avenue, the parade halted
In front of President Roberts house
where they cheered 'PreX" long and
loud.
The evening festivities were started

procession leading off. All varieties
