i sy New Haven, Conn., May 14—"Tap Day” one of the biggest events in Yale | the oldest of the sdcieties, gave elec- undergraduate life—when juniors are societies—was robbed of much of its picturesqueness today. The historic ceremony instead of being held under an ancient oak on the old was transferred to the more secluded Berk- eley Oval, which had been fenced in to keep out all those not invited. This was because of the two years' agita- tion against certain phases of the so- ciety system, one of the objections be- ing that the affair was too public. When the chimes on Battel Chapel struck five today—the appointed e for the “tapping” to begin—only a comparatively few persons were on the oval, although a large number of stu- dents clambered on the fences in an endeavor to see the teremony. The af- fair passed off quietly and there were no_pafticular surprises. To insure elections on merit, forty- five names had been selected by a re- ferendum vote of the junior class. The societies selected all but nine of the men. proposed. Many of those elected were behind the “reform” movement. ‘What is consideréd one of the great- est undergraduate honors—that of be- ing the last man “tapped” for Skull and Bones—went this vear to Thomas B. Denegre, of New Orleans, captain of the crew.

Waterbury Conn. May 14—The thir- ty-first annual convention of the Wo- man’s Relief Corps, department of Connecticut, G. A. R., opened today at Second church with delegates in num- ber to 250, and a host of friends and guests of the department present. Del- egates began arriving early in the morning and during the forenoon large numbers poured into town, and every corps in the department is represent- . The morning session was given over to the introduction of officers and the appointment of convention com- mittees. Mrs. Lotties B. Griswold, d partment president, reported that one corps had disbanded, Mathers, No. 23, at Deep River. The finances of the organization were in good order, she reported, and while membership has not increased the work of the depart- ment has not decreased. She report- ed that many official visits had been made throughout the state and the re- ceptions given the officers had been most cordial. The convention will be in session until Friday afternoon Among the noted guests at the conven- tion are the past national president, Harriet J. Bodge, of Hartford, and Charlotte E. Wright, secrtary and treasurer. | The report of the secretary, Mrs. Rose E. Parsons, of Waterbury, given at the afternoon session showed that the membership of the department stood at 3,502, a decrease over the roster of last year when it numbered 2,810.

GREENWICH SAVINGS BANK TO CLOSE ITS BUSINESS. Bank Commissioners Asked to Liquid- ate the Institution—Depositors Will Be Paid in Full. Greenwich, Conn., May 14—The trustees of the Greenwich Sagings bank, now in the hands of the state bank commissioners, voted last night to have the assets of the bank turned into cash and the depositors paid, and to have bank commissioners liquidate the institution. The bank commission- ers. Messrs. Lippitt and Holt, who came here today agreed to do this. The trustees in a set of resolutions ex- press the Delief that all depositors will be paid in full and that the bank is not insolvent. This action was taken owing to the fact that the time was close at hand when the bank would be called upon to pay out its funds to’ depositors, and to conserve all in- terests it was thought that liquida- tion would be the best course. Commissioner Lippitt today sald that there is $940,000 or so to be paid to 2900 depositors. All will get their balances in full together with inter- est and possibly there will be a small surplus distributed. Checks will be mailed out from the Hartford office in three instalments, the -first and second checks being for about one- third of each depositor's balance.
