Talk:plumbum

Maybe also obsolete US slang for a fraternity pledge

I found this:

• 1927, Alpha Chi Sigma, Hexagon (volume 17, issue 4, page 207)

  This year the pledges, who are termed "plumbums" by the chapter, were given a good, stiff week of pre-initiation "razzing." They held up remarkably well.
