Yardling Seeks Excitement By Blackout of Navy Dorms

Sedition, espionage, and corruption raised their voices in the Yard last night in the person of a lusty Gray's Freshman, who, bored with the somnolence of his History 1 and filled with the patriotic spirit, decided to call an air raid of his own.

It started as an entry joke, but the Yardling didn't know his own strength, and his raucous call was overheard by a billied Navy sentry, who promptly passed the good word around the yard. It wasn't a call to battle stations, but it was almost as successful, for in a flash the Naval dorms were hermetically blacked out.

But even in a blackout, the Navy worked fast, and it wasn't three minutes before the mistake was discovered. "Better black than Grays," they stammered.
