each, the referees shall count the
number of hands on the top of the
barrel. Each hand shall count one
point. The class having the largest
number of hands on the top of the
barrel shall win the scrap. The
hands of athletes in training shall not
count. There shall be three refer
ees ; the presidents of the two up
per classes and a third (not a stud
ent) who shall be appointed by the
two presidents. The winners of the
scrap shall be allowed to dispose of
the barrel and its contents as they
see fit. The referees shall have
authority to make any ruling not cov
ered by the rules already established.
In regard to the flag scrap there
was considerable discussion, pro and
con. The committee recommended
a tying-up contest, such as is prac
ticed at some colleges, but the stu
dents were opposed to any move to
abolish the flag scrap entirely.
Suggestions for modifying it were
made, providing that the height of
the pole be limited, that no sharp
tools nor machinery of any kind be
used, that the pole shall not be
greased, and that no Freshmen be
allowed on the pole. Tying with
rope, however, shall be permitted.
The consideration of the flag scrap
was then referred back to the com
mittee once more, to be presented in
detail for discussion and adoption at
a future mass meeting.
