"Over in the shop in Sibley College, half a dozen students were working under the direction of Professor Sweet. Through the open windows came the sound of the President's jubilation on the bells, and Professor Sweet, suspecting the cause, turned off the power and led the boys over to McGraw Hall to help to swell the joyful noise. A rope was hitched by its middle to the clapper of the biggest bell, and the ends were worked effectively b}^ the boys to change the usual deep, dignified tone into hilarious booming. The clappers of the other bells were worked by happy hands and feet, and all the hill and valley awoke and echoed the uproar of rejoicing. "More than thirty years later, I met Mr. White at a reception and told him that there had been a story afloat of his ringing the chimes in celebration of the first rowing victory. Mr. White looked sur- prised and thoughtful, and was non- committal. But a little later he sought me out and said: 'I've been thinking of that story, and I believe I did ring the bells!' " The trio wandered about town, search- ing for landmarks that had survived the half-century, and found only a few. In the "State Drink Hall" they drank water from the Hathorn Spring, that had re- tained the tang and pungency of earlier times. Then they engaged a taxi to take them to the scene of the victorious struggle whose memory had added zest to fifty years of their busy lives.
