New Haven, Jan 22—Probably the alumni of no other university return more frequently o in larger numbers than do Yale men, the Alumni Week- Iy thinks. During the winter the elass dinner is an expected:function which | refreshes class associations, while the alumni dinner is the occasion for a general foregathering, in June, the Jmerest excuse will serve to bring a man hack.te a formal or informal re- union, and at other times various af- filiations draw the alumnl back to fa- miliar scenes. And so l’a Yale Alumnt University Day, plans 'for which on Feb, 23d were announced last' week, will it in naturally with “Yale gradu- ate community life” and also comsti- tute a gathering that hasa significance unigue among the other reunions and returnings. For in attending lectures, classes and undergraduate exercises, in inspecting the university equipment and in conferences with faculty, t! alumni are to get Yale with all the festive glamor removed, and to see it in its daily life, as a teaching organ- ization, a seat of learning. To be su if some of the alumni get back a da; early they may see a Washington birthday rush between sophomores and freshmen—but in general it's to be a period of informal study of educational conditions and problems at Yale, under the auspices of the Associated New England clubs, a member of which group 1s the Alumni_Association of New London county, Charles H. Has- kell, '3, of Norwich, secrefary There is to be a seating arrangement | for the body of graduates in Battell chape!, if the alumni can summon the courage to go back to the old dayvs to the extent of rushing for college chap- el at_S8.10. Then for a couple hours the visitors will visit class room and laboratory, and at 11 o'clock will come the opening meeting, President Hadley presiding, with addresses by Secretary Stokes ‘en’ the significance of the day and by Treasurer Day on the Univ sity Press. This will be followed by a visit to the new university laborator: quadrangle, en Plerson Sage square, Juncheon in Memorial hall, followed by visits to the library, thé art gallery or to other points of interest. At 3 o'cloc in Lampson there will be talks on stu- dent problems by undergraduates; and then a general conferen led by Dean Jones and Director Chittendent, fol- lowed by another led by President Hadley on the graduate and profession- al schools. Informal dinners and meet- jugs with students will come early in the evening, and finally a smoker, with members of the faculty, will bring uni- versity day to a close. Every effort on the New Haven end is being made to insure a day that will please and enlighten the men wi\e‘ have come back, and to this purpos the members of the faculty will pro- vide hospitably for Sunday or Monday nights,” Feb. 22 or 23. On the other hand, it is earnestly desired that all graduates give a little thought to the meaning. and importance of uniyers v, and/lend their support, preferably y attendance, for its success.

There is an unusual lack of interest in the Junior Prom. this year, and the attendant festivities, judging from the | diffieuity with which the dance tick-| ets are being sold, and particularly the | Prom. boxes. At the first sale only| about half of the 35 boxes were taken, and so the committee was obliged to offer the remainder at an open sale. After the last sale, Wednesday night, there were still nine boxes left unsold, and the Prom. committeo Is at a loss to know what to do. One of the rea- sons why the Prom. is going to be smaller this year is that the three davs' vacation will give many men the op- portunity to leave town. “There will not be a tango danced at the Prom.” said Dean F. S. Jones of the academic department today. “There isn't one om the card, for I have looked it over. The boys\ won't dance i, anyway, I'm sure. There will be 100 many men of good breeding there. In fact, the whole tone of the. Prom. is against it” he added. The Prom., which is the social tri- umph of the juniors during their col- lege course, will be held Feb. 2.

The oportunity was (oo good to be lost and freshmen from Wrizht and sophomores from Durfee and the other halls piled out and for an hour and a half filled the air with fiy:ng balls until, i fact, they had to stop for that corner of the campus had been practically cleared of available snow, and if in intervals when they | became tired of throwing at each other, the volleys were turned toward inviting open windows up in the do mitories,»and sometimes to windows that were not open, not over a dozen | panies were shattered, notwithstanding the hundred or more that appeared in the New Haven papers next day. It's' quite true that one Yale professor was waylaid in the battle.

But on Tuesday, a &oup of senio got out on the roof of Vanderbilt and began to drop little reminders of the winter season on the heads of inoffen- sive passersby—not promiscuously, naturally—but on these they thought would appreciate them.
