At the command of the dominant "sophs,'' the freshies res ponded with songs, jigs and speeches. Several of the new students proved re calcitrant and special exercises were in troduced. The feature of the evening was a wrestling match between Kilpat rick and Richardson, two giant freshmen from La Grande. Sines a plunj e in the race was to reward the loser of this con test the two big fellowg wrestled des perately, surging against each other like two bears until the mastsr of ceremonies terminated their efforts by ordering both to the cool waters of the race. In the 440 yard run the fre.hies prov ed that tney have material for the tracd next spring, both in the sprints and the distance runs. The main programme for the evening was marked by the best of good fellow ship in both classes and after promising to tip their hats to the sophomores the young classmen were honorably dis missed. Later in the evening a kind of "third degree" was administered to three or four conspicuous freshmen, and tho the pranks of the hazers were well taken by their victims, it is understood today that the University authorities will conduct a vig orous investigation with a view to stamp ing out the practise completely. The sympathy of the faculty and upper class men is strongly against the practice and of late years their efforts have done mu;h to biing hazing into disfavor. In a letter to Professor Hockenberry, of this city, Joel Richardson, who by the way was one of the giants referred to in the above clipping, comments on the re ception tendered the freshies by the sophs in the following words: "Saturday night Earl Kilpatrick, James Neill and I. with several other freshmen attended a re ception given by the sophomores, Per haps the sophs enjoyed it but it is quite certain that few, if any, of the freshies did. 1 never was much of a wrestler, runner or dancer, and cold baths at this season, I always omit when possible However, we carried off our part to the best of our ability and I hope to the satis faction of the sophs."
