Tonight comes the seductive senior
promenade which as usual will be held in
Alumni hall and everything in attendance
which always lends charm to this occa-

an enclosure to be made between the hall
and Dwight hall and so constructed that
none but the elect may have admittance.
Tomorrow the chief excitement will be
found at the field, where Yale and the
University of Pennsylvania will contend
for supremacy in base ball. The old
alumni don't like this bit; they have al
ways been in the habit of coming back
commencement week to yell with youth
full vigor against Harvard, and with true
Yale spirit they don't like the innovation.
The alumni will meet in the morning at
Alumni hall. At various hours in the day
the classes of 1881, 1871, 1916, 1851, 1861,

YALE-HARvARD BOAT RACES. N. z. TELE-
PHONE coMPANY's ENTERPRISE.
The Southern New England Telephone
company has arranged q. novd manner of
giving bulletins concerning the progress
of the Yale-Harvard boat race Friday
next. Two miniature eight cared shells,
ono painted blue and the other red have
been prepared which will be suspended
from wires hung across Court street, and
as the race proceeds, one or the other of
the boats will be pulled in advance of the
other, showing exactly which of the or ews
are ahead at the time the bulletins are re-
ceived. This stroke of enterprise on the
part of the company will doubtless be
much appreciated by the public at large
who have in past years thronged Court
street, anxious to secure the latest news
from the scene of the race.
