CLEVELAND, Ohio, Oct. 3.-Four young women, sophomores in the Cleveland Medical college, led the sophs in a victorious defense of the class colors at the college entrance today, and the melee became so lively that someone sent in a call for the patrol.
Miss Dora Horn from Michigan tackled a towsled-haired freshman and lost both sleeves of her dress. She promptly donned a knitted jacket and returned to the fray. The girls downed him promptly and three set upon him, while Miss Horn went after her jacket. The set-to ended in a repulse of the freshmen. The sophs declare that the fact that four of their number are women is no handicap.
