University
and College
Princeton

Work on the new gymnasium will
commence early in the spring, If the
enthusiasm of Princeton Alumni and
undergraduates is any criterion. This
building has been planned to surpass
any college gymnasium in the world
Such a structure at Yale cost $3.50, 900.
1t took four years to raise the funds.
Much of this amount was spent in
purchasing a site and in constructing
a swimming tank. Princeton will spend
S225,00O of rthe gymnasium alone, with
the site free, and a magnificent swim
ming tank, the Brokaw building all
ready in existence and needing only a
connection with the gymnasium proper.
Not only in cost but in size it will out
rival every college gymnasium in the
country. 1t VIII be made large
enough to accommodate nearly twice
the number of students now in the uni
versitv
All but $4,000 of the $225,OOO have
been raised. The Alumni decided to
allow the undergraduates to have a
hand in the making up the balance.
Wednesday night an enthusiastic meet
ing of undergraduates in the old
gymnasium was addressed by Presi-
dent Patton, trustees and men inter-
ested in the athletic life of the uni
versity. 1t was decided that the
classes enter into a friendly competi-
ton for securing the balance The class
which raises the largest amount by
Feb. ], 1902, will have its numerals en-
broidered on a banner to be hung on
the tower of the trophy hall.
The basketball team lost its first
game of the season with the Silent FIVE,
in New York, Wednesday, but is de-
termined to improve on practice. Class
games in the gymnasium are arousing
interest in the sport. The makeup of
the team at present is Langdon, Con-
ter, forwards; Wrightson, centre;
Roper, Mccoy, backs.
The Princeton University hockey
team played its first game of the season
Thursday night with the st. Nicholes
team at the St. Nicholes rink. The
team practices occasionally in New
York and takes long daily walks
Exercises of the university will be
suspended for vacation, from Dec q
to Jan. s, but students are expected to
reach and leave their homes on these
dates

this ribbon encircles the crown, and to
it is attached a bunch of pale green

of green and white variegated holly

FLAG DAY.

If we remember rightly, so the chron-
icler says, on this day in 1776 that the
Stars and Stripes were adopted as the
national flag of Republic, which has
become a world power. The celebra-
'ton of the day, by the men of all ma
tionalities, who have left their own
flags and countries, is natural. There
must be a great feeling of pride in
the heart of every American today, who
can point to the flag which started with
thirteen stars and which today holds
forty-eight stars in it's corner (and Ha-
wall yet to Gomez.

While looking over soma official
records in the Board OF Health. we
we're painfully surprised to notice
that the Hebron Drug Co., few
days ago, was granted contract for
furnishing crude carbolic acid to
the Board at the rate OF S3 cents a
pound while much lower figure
was asked by the Benson, Smith Co.,
and the previous contract with the
Hollister Drug Co., amounted only
to 10 cents per pound. A great
deal OF crude carbolic acid ia used
by the Board OF Health, aud the re-
markahle discrepancy in bids should
have the immediate attention Of the
Legislature. There is evidently
something rotten in D.nmsrk or 10
