Well, here is the Student Volunteer Convention again. The last one was in February, so they must have it more than once a year.
I'm guessing the young men were singing their Union College yells and songs on the train to pass the time as they journeyed to their conference.
The 1921 Union College Yearbook records the yells and songs of their class. Below are two pages from that publication containing samples.
