TALES PROM. FESTIVITIES.
MANY SCENES OF LIFE AND
 GAIFT.

The Teas and Gsrmans-DsliehtfnI Social Evsnts-Benutifui Decorations -GIee club concsrt-A Merry scene. The festivities of Prom. week at Yale opened with many delightful social events yesterday. accounts of which are given below. and yesterdays joy was appropriately crowned with the Glee club concert last evening and will close in blaze of glory with the Prom. to- night at the armory.
 Although the freshmen were not al- lowed their usual pranks. in throwing confetti, cards and paper streamers. their presence was demonstrated by cheering boisterously and making re- marks to the pretty Prom. girls in the pit below. The same old story of pretty girls, attentive juniors and proud mann mas-all were there to witness one of the most attractive events in Yale's social week. One little junior who ar rived very punctually took his seat, sitting next to his Prom. guest, while the mamma was next to her daughter. The naughty freshman up on high sung out to the quaking junior, 'sit in the middle" "sit in the middle" The dear girl was so completely feazed that she moved from her junior friend and sat the other side of her mother, leaving the junior all alone. This further stim- ulated the freshman to guy the poor boy to death. Other instances of bold ness on the part of the gallery gods were in cheering prominent athletes, such as Winslow, captain of the base ball team; Metcalf and Rockwell of the varsity football team. But none of the guests cared what the boys of 1907 did as they were just too happy with their pretty girls. At different intervals dur ing the concert huge flags bearing the figures 1906 s. and 1907 were lowered, which completely hid the performers from view.
 As to the concert itself the clubs were mp to their usual standard and were enthusiastically received. The solos by Messrs. Wiggins, Baxter and Tyler were especially good and it would be hard to choose the favorite. Each was encored a number of times. The negro quar- tette melodies contained good swipes and funny stunts An innovation this year in the glee club was whistling solo executed by MT. Johnson of Shelf It was beautifully done and was most pleasing to the audience.
 The banjo and mandolin clubs came in for an equal share of praise and the mandolin club really approached tonal beauty.
 The concert came teo close with the Inspiring Bright College Years which forcibly presents the motto For God for country and for Yale" The pro- gramme follows:
