The sophomores and freshmen of the Renssalaer Polytechnic Institute at Troy held their annual rush last Saturday. The freshmen won the rush by strategy which so disgusted the sophomores that they threatened to take revenge if the freshmen paraded. On Tuesday evening the freshmen engaged a band and started out to parade. The sophomores were waiting for them and before the parade had gone far, attacked the freshmen with clubs and anything else they could lay their hands upon.
