66's TRIENNIAL.
The class of '88, to the number of about
seventy-five, assembled at the Atheneum
last evening to celebrate two joyous occa-
siens-the triennial reunion of the class
and the presentation of the class cup to
the class boy, Allen Trafford Klots of
Brooklyn. The little hero of the evening
is bright chubby boy of about twenty
months old, having been born in the city
Of Brooklyn September 16. 1889. His
father is Charles Allen ,Klots, one of the
most popular men of the class. Both his
parents were presenta the reunion. Perhaps
of all those present none seemed to enjoy
the occasion more than the young but still
sturdy old son of Yale. The presentation
was made in an appropriate speech by
Harold R. Griffiths and received in most
becoming silence by the class boy of '98.
After three times three cheers the Second
regiment band, which was stationed upon
the stage, discoursed sweet music, during
which the class proceeded to enjoy things
as only Yalensians can at "a -triennial re-
union. No set program of toasts was ar
ranged, but with Il. M. Cooley acting as
POSTMASTER impromptu, speeches were
made by 81. w. Beecher, E. A. Stevenson.
II. L. Simpson, William Fitzgerald, MR..
Waite and others. The cup committee
and committee of arrangements consisted
of Arthur White of Brooklyn, E. M. You
man of New York and Miner Wellman of
Friendship, N. Y. -. <asz..s -

The decennial banquet of the class of

SSS ENTHUSIASTIC TIME.
The class of 8ss had probably the most
enthusiastic and largely attended reunion
of any class that ever graduated from
Sheffield scientific school. They formed
in front of Osborn Hall and had genuine
length of the old fence so fixed that they
could set it down on the walk where the
old fence used to be and the forty-fve
members of the class took turns sitting on
it and singing old time songs. They then,
with the Wheeler & Wilson band, pro-
ceeded, to Prokosky's with Shinkichi
Shigemi astride the fence carrying the
class banner, where the supper was served.
Jesse Damn, whose name is well known
to every Yale man, presided oyer this ex-
ercise and made the presentation of the
class cup to Horace Luzerne Wilcox the
diminutive son of Ralph M. Wilcox of Port
land, Conn. This class had no chance of
being without class-boy at its triennial
for just eight hours and thirty minutes af-
ter the birth of Master Wilcox, a son came
to the household of Frank G. Woodward
of Orange, Conn. Among those present
