[Sidenote: “Three Deep”]
Prof. Walsh, principal of Burrell High School, observed his pupils
playing a game called “Three Deep.” This game, played by the boys and
girls together and calling for choices of confederates to be made,
seemed to him to lead to romance and he therefore talked against it. He
finally demanded that the pupils quit playing this game altogether.
Attaching more importance to the game than it really merited, the pupils
played it all the more after school hours.
