THE SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL PARTY

EVERYBODY HAD A GOOD TIME IF CAKE WAS STOLEN

The Naughty Juniors Stole the Cake and Gave One Senior a Mud Bath

The seniors of the high school held a class party Saturday evening at the home of their vice president, Miss Elsa Eberbach. Despite the fact that some wicked juniors interfered somewhat with the arrangements everyone had a good time, playing games, etc, until near midnight. Ice cream was served, but it is reported there was a dearth of cake on account of a raid made on the culinary department early in the evening by some naughty '04 boys. About 60 were present. The house was beautifully decorated in carnations and daffodils.

Progressive games were played. Miss Forbes won the first prize and Mr. Darrow the second.

Last winter, when the juniors held a class party, some of the seniors caught the president, William Belknap, while he was on his way thence, and held him a prisoner until late in the evening. A party of juniors, anxious to retaliate, Saturday night seized upon L. C. Todd, managing editor of the Omega, whom they considered one of the leading members of the class, and subjected him to a disagreeable mud bath. A gentleman who tried to save the cake when the juniors made their raid on the kitchen was not treated as kindly as he might have been. No other instances of disrespect on the part of the '04 boys were recorded on the senior class annals, however.
