Such a scheme is all very nice and select, but it savors much more of the tea-pot than the open field.

They tried to get in at the rear and at the side doors of the stage, but they met freshmen at every point. The freshmen were too numerous, and the sophomores were forced to swallow their indignation and endure their defeat like men.
