Princeton has at last decided to follow the action
Of her sister colleges in adopting a special blazer and
cap for the various athletic organizations Of the uni
versity. AT recent meeting Of the executive DO ard
q committee was appointed - appropriate de-
signs which will be submitted 10 the board fJr ap-
prevail The distinctive feature Of each association
Will be its monogram embroidered upon the cap and
pocket Of the blazer. III the introduction Of such
blazer the committee fully undcTstan how much
its success depends upon the good VIII and hearty ap
prOVal OF the college: yet IL Is beyond doubt that
the studeDts VIII willingly confer the small amount
Of honor which may accrue TO their athletic repre-
sentatives by the exercise Of the exclusive right to
such blazer. 10 has been learned, through the
graduate advisory committee that the construction Of
the new grand stand the athletic field VIII be begun
In the future and is expected % be completed
by April l. The work upon the grounds winch was
begun last fall, will also be resumed soon and an
effort will be made 10 have the baseball field ready
