The freshmen of New Hampshire Hall were required to carry cats on their shoulder in the parade before the stadium at the time of Delta Alpha and the Norwich game. Hence the following note appearing in The Dartmouth two days later.
An Appreciation
We desire to hereby express our heartfelt thanks to the student who on Memorial Field caused a freshman to release our thirteen-year-old cat, "Sir Launcelot," which he was carrying.
PROF, and MRS. F. E. AUSTIN
