down town while u crowd, wmich in-
cluded their best girls, looked on.
Later on in the week, the pledges
were taker blindfolded out into the
country, turned loose separately in
strange places and told to find their
way back to town. As this all occurr-
ed at night, it ma le the situation
doubly bad. To add to this umbarass-
ment, they were deprived of their
trousers ao that they could not catch
a ride bark to Denton. Two of the
pledges, after finding each other, mis-
took Uteir positions and walked in
the wrong direction. Their journey
took them to Argyte and finally
back to Denton at five o'clock the
next morning. Another, pledge whose
walk back took him by C. I. A., had
to wait on the front lawn of an iso-
lated home until all the lights around
the college had l>eei turned out.
To add to these humiliations, the
pledges were compelled to go down to
the "corner" dressed in nothing but
tow-sacks. Here Uiey were given two
blocks of ice and told to run around
the campus with a block under each
arm. As this took place at mid-day,
there was no lack of an audience.
Finally an aD-night secret init-
iation was held at Lake Dallas. Thin
initiation ended the formal initiation
program, so now the pledges have'
become full-fledged members of the
Talon organization.
