COLLEGE MEN
 AT BANQUET Enjoyable Reunion of the Class of '9S of the University
 of California. Delnnonico's Made to Ring With Col lege Songs and Class
 Tells.

Twenty-one members of the class of 'Ss, University of California, attended the decennial banquet, given at Delmonicos last evening, the occasion being the first big reunion of the class. To James Sut- ton, at present recorder at the un1yer- sity, is due the credit for the marked suc- cess of the affair, for it was he who orig mated the idea of decennial reunion and carried out the arrangements.
 A fine orchestra was stationed In room adjoining the banquet hall, playing the most delightful music during the dinner and accompanying the men, who became rollicking boys again, when some familiar class song was started up.
 James P. Booth was toastmaster, the principal speakers being c. Stoney, H. U; Monroe, c. w. Reed, H. M. Holbrook and Finley Cook. Letters and telegramS or re- gret were received from classmates who were unable to be present, and their health was drunk, after which they were given three cheers.
 The banquet was entirely informal. one of the stipulations on the invitations be- ing that dress suits were barred, as the members planned a good, easy-going time, which they realized. College songs were sung class yells given until the dishes rattIed, and stories told of the good old days of Berkeley.
 reunion will be present at the alumni luncheon at the university ana the dinner in the evening at the California Hotel.
 The class of SS is justly proud of It's record. Of the forty-one graduates only two have died. Most. of the members re side in this city and are. prominent in business and professional life. Among those who attended last nights reunion were C. F. Allardt, A. Bachman, J. B. Beard s. Bloom J. F. Booth. l: l. Brown, Deas. H. K Bells, H. M. Holbrook, Rev. w. I. Kip Jr., G. A. Merrill. H.
