Turnabout Day - Sometime in February 1965
Co. I, Class of '68, VTCC
Turnabout Day -- A wild and crazy day in the middle of the sometimes hellacious, sometimes hilarious Rat Year.
You go to sleep a Rat the Night Before - the Lowest Thing on the Planet - and the next day your fondest dream comes true:
You awaken an Upperclassman, and the Upperclassmen are all now Rats for a day!
Ah, Revenge is So, So Sweet!
"Do you call that a chin tuck, Mr. Bradford...Oooooooooh...you WILL read about this in the Yellow Pages!"
"Did your mother dress you funny this morning, Mister Spitzer?"
"Mr. Shannon, don't you know that the sum of 34 and 34 is 68, not 67!!! Are we going to have to refer you to the Honor Court???"
[The late] John Sears enjoys the hilarity!
"There are eager slopes on a hat, and there are Very eager slopes on a hat. But THAT, Mister, is a *Meager* slope!"
Dan Scwebel, R.L. ("Smuck") Miller, and Darryl Williams enjoy the fun.
Four of the 'new' rats fall in for close order drill.

-- wearing the stripes of a *corporal*!

Are you ready...One, Two! One, Two!
