It is no exaggeration to say that this is, even now, not the exception, but almost the custom, in spite of the rulings of the umpires.

...freshmen and take them a little farther along and give them another grasp on the fence. This goes on until the sophomores have reached a position along the fence so that the freshmen can go no farther. Rarely a freshman class go the whole length of the fence in spite of the sophomores.
