were displayed throughout de
manding a 3-day recess.
One of them high in the jun

Bird at Home." Another which
was carried along the inside
track said "3 Days 4 Turkey at
Home."
At times during the game and
at halftime chants of "we want a
vacation" rose from the student
body. But, these never seemed to
rouse enough support to .continue.
One section even started to
sing "Over the river and through
the woods, to Grandmother's
house we go," but it also died
out, apparently because no t
enough people remembered the
words to sing the whole song.

While the boys of West Halls
