"Shall I toss you down soap and towels ?" "Say, fellows," cried Lucy Little, "don't you think it is rather warm out this evening ?" "Hello! hello!" shouted Rattleton.

"Has it been raining, or did we have a small shower ?" Then Merriwell's beautiful baritone voice pitched the chorus of a familiar negro melody, in which the triumphant and delighted freshmen joined: "Git erway from de window, mah love an' mah dove! Git erway from de window--don't yeh heah?
Come eround some odder night, For dere's gwine ter be er fight, An' dar'll be razzers er-flyin' through de air." The sophomores retired to a safe distance and then challenged the freshmen to come out and fight.

They called them cowards and other things, but the freshmen laughed and taunted them in return.
"Is--er--King Browning present ?" yelled a freshman, leaning out of a window.

"If so, I'd like to inquire if he means to attend the party this evening." "If he does," said another freshman, "he will be able to obtain a dress suit down at Cohen's, price 'von tollar ber efenin' to shentlemen.'" "Oh, you wait till we get at you fresh ducks!" shouted back an angry sophomore.

"We'll make you sweat for this!" "Go on! you're only fooling!" sang the freshmen.
"We'll show you we're not fooling!" excitedly declared Punch Swallow.
"We'll scalp a few of you!" "Ah!" cried Bandy Robinson.
