_HOT_—Football term. In Twenty-two and Twenty-two, (_v. inf._,) when the ball went out of bounds, it was brought in and placed between the two sides, who all clustered up close round, with their heads down, each party, by weight and kicking, trying to force the ball through the other. This _mêlée_ was called a “Hot.” _HOT END_—A half-burnt faggot stick, with one end red hot. _HUFF_—Very strong College ale. _HUSKY_—Gooseberry fool with the husks in. I. _INFERIOR_—Any boy not a Præfect. J. _JACK_—A large leather vessel for beer. [Illustration: JACK] _JORAM_—A tin can for beer used in Commoners. _JUBILEE_—Any time when there was nothing to do, either in the way of lessons or fagging. _JUNKET OVER_—To exult or triumph over another person in a friendly manner,—_e.g._, “I Junket over you, old fellow; I have leave out to-morrow.” _JUNIOR_—All Inferiors except the seven Candlekeepers and Senior Inferior. The word “Fag” was never used as a substantive except in combination with another word, as, “Breakfast Fag.” The verb and participle were in common use. K. _KICK IN_—In a game of football the bounds on each side were kept by a line of Juniors, whose duty it was to kick the ball in again whenever it passed outside the line. _KICK OFF_—When the football was taken in hand and then kicked into the air; which was done after each Schitt, (_v. inf._,) Gowner, (_v. sup._,) or Goal, by the losing side, and whenever a ball that had been kicked up in the air had been caught by one of the other side. _KICK OVER_—To kick a ball up in the air, when it is rolling along, or lying on the ground. Considered very bad play. _KID_—Cheese. L. _LAUNCH_—To drag a boy out of bed, mattress, bedclothes, and all. _LOB_—A Tice. It will be observed by cricketers that this is not the ordinary meaning of the term, which, I believe, generally denotes any kind of slow, underhand ball. At Winchester a “Lob” may be delivered by a swift, round-hand bowler. _LOBSTER_—To Cry. _LOCKBACK_—A Holiday or Remedy, on which, from bad weather or any other cause, the boys did not go on to Hills, but remained on the school side of Seventh Chamber Passage gate. _LOCKS AND KEYS_—Commoner Peal, (_v. inf._) _LOGIE_—Sewerage. _LOG POND_—A Sewer. _LONG BOX_—A deal box for holding bats, stumps, and balls. _LONG DISPAR_—Part of a loin of mutton. _LONG FORK_—A stick used as a toasting-fork. _LONG GRASS_—All meads except the paths and Turf, (_v. inf._) _LONG HALF_—The Half which commenced in February, and ended in the middle of July. _LONG MEADS_—A field between Sick-house and Commoners, now thrown into Meads. The time after dinner on summer evenings, when we went on to Underhills, was also so called.
