The first Infant has left the Golden Goblet at the fountain you did leave it there; didn't you, you 'fraid-cat?" she demanded sharply, of Helen. Helen bobbed her head and sobbed. "Then," said the leader of the hazing party, "you go and bring it here." Ruth stared at her in surprise. She did not move. "Take out her gag. Lead her to the door.
Nor was this accomplished without serious, and even sensational, opposition from the representative of a rival submarine company. Hence the boys went through some rousing adventures. Incidentally, they fell against practical instruction in hazing at the Naval Academy. Adventures enough had befallen the submarine boys to last any man for a lifetime.
The man was naturally a bully, and loved to display the little authority he had by "hazing" those under him, to use the technical sea phrase.
Readers who may not be familiar with the careers of Lieutenant Jack Benson, Ensign Hal Hastings, and Ensign Eph Somers are referred to the volumes of the Submarine Boys' Series. In "The Submarine Boys and the Middies" will be found the account of the hazing that Jack, Hal and Eph had received at the hands of midshipmen.
He entered upon his office, August 27, 1640, and left it, October 24, 1654. It was during his administration that most of those unique rules were established which I have quoted. We can see in them the evident origin or occasion of hazing the Freshmen, which would naturally follow such rules. At the present day, be it known, the custom has entirely ceased.
Not only was hazing not practised, but it scarcely obtained even the recognition of mention; it was not so much reprobated as ignored; and, if it came under discussion at all, it was dismissed with a turn of the nose, as something altogether beneath us. That is not the sort of thing we do here.
In a moment more he had shaken them off; and before I could intervene, he had seized a belaying pin in either hand, and was hazing them up and down the deck. "Mutiny, would you?" he shrilled. "You poor swabs! Forgot who was your captain, did ye? Well, it's Captain Ezra Selover, and you can lay to that! It would need about eight fathom of stuff like you to tie me down."
Straight at the big gray he drove, "hazing" him off the road and stopping him abruptly. At the same time, he leaped from Panchito full on top of Loustalot, and bore the latter crashing to the ground. The chase was over.
At the next session with the youngsters the commandant questioned them as to the truth of the statement that Darrin had tried to protest against the hazing. "Why, yes, sir," Eaton admitted, "Mr. Darrin did say something against what we were doing." "As an upper classman, did Mr. Darrin order you to stop?" "No, sir," Eaton admitted; "he didn't command us to stop." "What did Mr. Darrin say?"
I hate to think of it, but I reckon a fellow has got to submit." "That depends," answered Dick. "I'll not stand for everything. I'll not mind a little hazing, but it mustn't be carried too far." "That's the talk," cried Tom. "If they go too far well, we'll try to give 'em as good as they send, that's all." "Right you are!" came from Sam.
