The Senior, Junior, Prep, each in his turn: Bui Eddie's curves and Slugger Pearson's stop 1 Were far beyond tin* other players skill And cadi one fell an easy victim to our team. Proud were we all, and well we thight have been, Of our brave boys who carried off the palm. At last the sturdy Soph we had to meet. Great crowds assembled 'round the base ball ground ' r To sec the game that settled our career. Excitement ran extremely wild and high As '93 meandered to the field To face the champions of the year before. First one and then the other side did lead Till after many a hard and furious fight Proud '92 was seen to be ahead Though only l>y a score of six to four. Now as the term drew nearly to a close The Freshman once again took to his hooks For each day brought him nearer home again. And now his work was almost fully o'er. We scattered far and wide when June arrived With various plans in mind. Some spent their time In rest and travel; some at home; and some In earning money for the next year's work. So they might seek again stern wisdom's halls. v * SECOND STEAK. Lgain we turn our faces to the place We've [earned to dearly love, but no more called Gay Freshmen, hut wise Sophomores sedate.
