[I don't think this made it out before.  Sorry if that's false]

What flinn says about the e^x cheer may have been true in his day.
We used it occasionally later, but our favorite cheer was
the Caltech spellout.  It goes like this:
Gimme a 'C': F
Gimme a 'A': U
Gimme a 'L': C
Gimme a 'T': K
Gimme a 'E': Y
Gimme a 'C': O
Gimme a 'H': U
What's that spell?  CALTECH

It also works nicely if you wish to make a special salute
the 'referee' for instance.  Anything with 7 letters will do.
