 A short time was pleasantly spent in the beautiful library in conversation During the reception Mir Charles Van Baar's orchestra of nine pieces rendered several selections while the Citizens band of Winsted, seated on the lawn, played inspiring airs.
 Soon after ', President Coy called the meeting to order and Acting Secre- tary Beverstock read the report of the Torrington meeting held last fall.

The interior of the hall contained B tables, each laid for eight persons Hundreds of candles flooded the room with light, the walls were decorated with college banners, etchings, paint ings, pipes. beer mugs and athletic paraphernalis.
