CONNECTICUT COLLEGE

The last two weeks have been busy ones at the Connecticut college. Ey
 erything is full of the spirit of the first graduation and dormitories and dining hall breathe the atmosphere of sweet girl graduates and all the at tendant romance. Examinations have been the center of excitement the past week; it seemed as though exams had neve' been so hard. so long. so awful; and there were so many of them. For the past ten days, it has been nothing but exams for under graduates but the seniors have had the additional strain of rehearsals and meetings. Every mail brings numer- ous packages for the graduates; graduation presents from admiring friends and relatives: and everything IS dropped to see the latest arrivals.
 By Friday night the last exam will be over and the college will breathe a sigh of relief There will be just one night to rest up and then the commencement activities will beeiss No details have as yet been announc-

ed as to awards of prizes and hon. ors and other incidents of the grad uation proper; these will not be forth coming until after the exercises Prizes have been cut down this year from fifteen to two: the tive which will be awarded this year are the Bodenwein prize for excellence in English in the field of the newspaper article and the other in the Graham Hislop prize of $25 for excellence in English for the year. The Bodeawein prize is also of s25.
 Among the aceompaniments of the last few weeks have been the sudden influx of memory books; they came from all directions and in an incredi- ble short time. Each one of these memory books has to be signed and everywhere one goes she is confront ed with Wont you write something in my memory book, something clev- er?' Of course, one has to say, Yes" To make it all the more ex- citing the Kione. the senior class book made its appearance last week and of course that has to be signed too, and each name has to have something clever attached to it; so everyone's brains are quite worn out.
 me afe f1afVafd boat races are the biggest attraction at college out side of exams. Interested groups of girls watch try / outs on the river every morning and night and wonder as to the final outcome Although the college for the most part is partial to Yale, looking upon it as a big broth- CT, there is a fear that Harvard will be the victor on the river on next Friday. As many of the girls are acquainted with members of the crew, there have been many enjoyable par ties over the week ends, in spite of the fact that the men are kept in pretty strict quarantine Practically all the seniors and a large body of undergraduates will stay over for the boat races and are arranging parties for the event with navy men and guests from out of town.
 The latest and last form of amusement at the college is motor boating. There have been more than a dozen parties in the last week; par ties of college girls have been invited by friends in town on several trips out Of ths harbor and out past the
