CONNECTICUT COLLEGE

F. lACU NOl4C6O Ou1CIdl6Q lOI- lllO | first time at. the yesper services on l Sunday afternoon. Quarantine regula- !; tions prevented the holding of the ex- ercises in the temporary chapel, the | gymnasium, but the college body i grouped together on the lawn at the
 side of New London hall out in the
 open and with President Marshall" of ficiating and Dr. Coerne, with the as-e. ! sistance of small hand organ con ducting the choir, a very impressive l service took place The Sunday ves-
 tine have been held in either Bolles- l wood or the many attractive sites of the campus are looked forward to with much pleasure by the college body as the only means of community gather ing permissible under the circum- stances.
 Much enthusiasm is being manifest ed at the college with the recent de- cision of the college authorities ito
 provide the choir with vestrnents. A vested choir at the college will be a
 decidedly attractive addition and add
 much to the dignity of the religious
 services at the college At the present
 time there are 3S girls in the choir
 which is well proportioned and splen didly trained under the conducting of
 Dr. Louis Coerne of the department. of music. Included in the choir member ship are Evelyn Gray, New Haven; Ruby Tracy, Hartford; Helen Cook, New Britain Evelyn Bitgood, Daniel
 son; Kathryn Hubert, Groton; Marie
 Taylor, New London: Margaret Pease,
 Saybrook; Loretta Higgins, Norwich;
 Maud Carpenter, Putnam; Mildred
 Duncan, Brooklyn; Dorothy Wheeler,
 Ashaway, R. I.
 Nine o'clock, o'clock, 12 o'clock. dinner time, sleeping time, philosophy
 time, any old time of the day and
 night, the fire bells have been ringing
 and the wild rush for doorways and , the open taking place The first drill
 of the year was held on Monday in all
 the college buildings, dormitories, reel tation hall and dining hall, and there
 have been several subsequent drills
 owing to the slowness of the first drills
 In a drill in New London hall the : building was clear of PTS students in 7 a minute and half, while in one of the campus dormitories 40 girls were out of the building in 30 seconds. The . dormitory drills are the bugbear of : : existence; at 12 or at in the morn = ing off goes the fire bell, every girl
 jumps up out of bed, shuts her win dows, turns on her light puts on a heavy coat and shoes and runs down : and out as quickly and orderly as could be imagined.
 !, Hockey and soccer practice are the . moods of the moment and all is aaft- f ter in preparation for the interclass l games to be arranged by the sport: I committee of the athletic association | within the next week. The faculty s have accepted the challenge of thu senior class to play a game of soccer e and the game will take place some tint = between now and the Thanksgiving
 vacation. The students are divided e into two sections, blue and white, un. e der supervision of section captains ant e leaders, and are the basis of all ath : letic contests in the college year.

At the college everythini 2 is fine. There are no cases of sicknes = and the ranks of students are com II plete. There have been no class meet
 ings and freshman class elections hay If been considerably delayed
