There is always a good deal of risk attendant on hazing.
It may lead to discovery---and dismissal.
"I wonder if some of the fellows think I keep away from hazing simply because I'm afraid of risking my neck ?" yawned Dick.

"They practically insist on my sitting in to-night, do they?
Oh, well!" The hop took more men away from camp than usual that night.

Other cadets met friends from the hotel or officers' quarters at post number one.
But over in Dunstan's tent a considerable group of yearlings gathered.
A few, in fact, were obliged to stand outside.

This they did in such a way as not to attract the attention of the O.C.or any chance tac.
Dick was there, and with him were Holmes and Anstey, to both of whom had been conveyed a hint as strong as that which had reached the class president.

Furlong, Griffin and Dobbs were in the tent.
Jessup and Aldrich were there as a matter of fact.
On the still night air came the clanging of eight on the big clock down in the group of barracks and Academic Building.
