THE GREAT FRAT FIGHT AS I REMEMBER IT.

Item

Even from this distance it is hard to say
that the barbarians were victorious. The
fraternities were not defeated, later some of
these same barbarian zealots joined fraterni-
ties, and three at least of the most promi-
nent leaders married fraternity girls. Perhaps
the most remarkable phase of the entire war
was the good fellowship that prevailed
between the leaders of each faction. So
far as they were fighting for principle, each
recognized the fact and respected it in the
other. Even where personal jealousy
appeared, it was forgiven, and what ill feel-
ing had been engendered between friends
died out before the end of the year.
Though they could not agree with the barbs
when it was claimed that the end justified
the means, the fraternities always admired
the daring of the enemy and appreciated
the consummate skill with which their
plans were executed.
