...given to a man who came to the college green and countrified and suddenly blossomed out into the toughest man in the class. Spurs were given to the one who used the most steeds (ponys and trots) by the men who used them least. Music followed; and then the "Jaw bone of an ass" was received by the man with the most "gall." from the quietest fellow." The "Spade" and "Pillow" were given to the greatest dig and to the laziest man respectively. A "Spoon" was presented to the greatest eater, a Comb to the man who best represented that...
