While the Shellbacks , seated at an L-shaped table nearly 
surrounding the Pollywogs, regaled themselves on succulent 
morsels such as crab-neat cocktails, turkey, et al , the 
"lovly ones” were served soup garnished with brass nuts, 
hamburger without the ham, and dishes of similar tastiness. 
During the meal "never a dull moment” presented itself 
because of the amusing entertainment provided by the polly- 
wogs and because of the sparkling repartee passed back and 
forth by Pa and Steve. The dinner terminated on a note of 
terror for the pollywogs as the Senior shellback himself 
delineated some of the horrors in store for them on the morrow. 
At £000, on the bell, "Davy Jones” boarded the Houston, was 
received with full honors and presented to the Senior Shellback. 
To the assembled Pollywogs (officer and presidential Tarty 
members on the center-line platform in the full glare of flood 
lights) Davy Jones then issued individual "Summons jocose, 
bellicose, and pungent, to the festivities of the following 
day.
