THE RUSH AT YALE.

The News gives the following account of the recent rush at Yale: At the close of the sophomore-freshman game the two classes formed their phalanxes and had a fair rush. The numbers in each were small, but the invaluable assistance of upper class men on both sides made it interesting. As the columns met both wavered an instant and then went off to one side. Then the freshmen had it all their own way and pushed '86 around the field, circling all around. When the rush was over rings were formed by hard struggling for the wrestling. Here the sophomores were very successful, winning nearly every match. A break for the gate was made by a false alarm

of "faculty," and there the work of passing out the freshmen was undertaken. It was not remarkably successful, but there was lots of fun in it and all along the sidewalk. Through the constant persuasions of the seniors and juniors the freshmen were spurred to take and keep the sidewalk in spite of all the efforts of the sophomores, as far as the vacant lot this side of the orphan asylum, where the long struggle was stopped. The freshmen showed unexpected "sand" and pluck throughout all the rushing and well earned their victories.
