The Baccalaureate address, the con- ferring of degrees, the Alumni lunch- eon, the Alumnl meeting, the Univer- sity reception, the 1492 dinmer, etc., are to be held exactly as usual. The most important change is in connec- tion with the exercises of Tuesday afternoon, when a patriotic celebration ‘has been substituted for the usual in- tercollegiate baseball game. The matn features of this celebration are to con. sist of an assembly of the graduates on the campus, a military parade, fol- lowed by the graduates marching in procession to various memorials on university grounds to Yalemen who have dled in the war of the Revolu- tion, the Civil war and the Spanish war, with the placing of wreaths on the Nathan Hale statue, the Civil war memorial, and the three memortals to Yale men who died in the Spanish war, namely the Cheney-Ives Gateway, the Miller Gateway -and” the Ledyard Flagstaff. The procession will end in the University Quadrangle between Woodbridge hall and the Dining hall where patriotic songs will be sung and two addresses delivered from the bai- cony. of Memorial hall .from which President Taft spoke on his return to New Haven. These addresses will be by George .E. Vincent, °85, president of the University of Minnesota and president-elect ;of the Rocketeller Foundation and by Captain Robert M. Danfold, U. 8.

Students who are meéembers of the Reserve Officers” Training Corps wil be asked to remain in Néw Haven aft- er the completion of their examina- tions for intensive training so as to take part In the parade on Tuesday afternoon, and it is hoped that many wil] do so, as 511 members of the corps who are 20 years and 9 months old have been formally recommended by €aptain Danford to the various Of- ficers’ Training camps and their pres- ence will not be expected at, com- mencement. .Any -wtadent. wko is net remaining in New Haven to take his degree will, however, be excused at the close of his examinations on ap- plication to Captain Danford.

This statement was made fol- lowing conferences which W. L. Saul.- ders and other members of the sub- marine group of the naval consulting board with Secretary Daniels and offi- cers of the navy. One officer asserted after these con- ferénces that the scjentific lines along which the Saunders group had been experimenting had reached the point where definite results of an important tangible nature were in prospect. ‘At said thig officer, “we are get- ting down to brass tacks and believe we have something .definite of value accomplished. We are now much bet- ter able to make our plans for deal- ing ‘with the submarine than we were a month ago.” - X .

U-Boat Victims Become Less. London, May 9.—A substantial de- crease in the number of sinkings by submarines in the past week will be shown in the forthcoming weekly re- port of shipping losses. In fact, it is stated, the report will show the smaliest losses in the past three weeks. No reason for this is given out by official sources, but it is plainly in- timated that considerable progress has been made in the anti-submarine campaign. . There is no guarantes that the weekly losses will not again as- sume alarming proportions, but the fact that they have been substantially reduced is very encouraging to those in charge of the campalgn, and .t w believed that the new memsures 0 combat the under-water craft are al- ready showing gratifying results. \ DENY SINKING HEALDTON.
