phia stations.
Big orange chrysthanthcnums fairly
illuminated the stations. Hundreds OF
the fair rooters were garbed in Keeping
with the Princeton coiors. In fact. the
gown appeared to be subordinated to
the flower which was the motif Of the
costume.
Girls In Orange and Black
Here and there among the princcton,
pilgrims were girls in whole outfits Of
orange and black.
Some of them carried little black
sranicls along. their necks encircl"d
| with orange. .colored collars. At West
| Philadelphia station Il little Negro boy
eating a larg" orange gave a realistic
touch To the general color scheme.
Some of the girls incidentally had 50
much root"r rarnphcrnalia with them
| that they made their way through the
coaches with difficulty.
In many cases one saw demure little
| rootcr carrying a camera. m"gaphone.
aud box of candy. These. with a big
fur coat made burden AS big as that
OF the famous white man.
Here and there one could see little
! Of the blue Of Yale. These rooters
went along bravcly with the Prince
tonions. They insisted their color was
not symbolic Of the way they would
eeel after today's battle.
