COLUMBIA’S “OLD GRAD” DAY -A COLORFUL DAY OF MERRIMENT Every Class Since 96, i n Fantastic Costumes, Is There to Do Weird Stunts to See Their Alma Mater’ Trounce Yesterday afternoon was “Old Grad" day at Columbia University Bouth Field. Fifteen hundred of the @lumni, including all classes from 1896 to the present seniors, were there fm colorful costumes, prancing about the baseball diamdnd with banners and other symbols of merriment and uni- versity propaganda. The Class of 1909 imported a one-hump drome- @ary, clean of hoof, but dull of eyo, to head the procession. There was also a black bear in leash—a very strong leash, held by Wallie B. Milk- . man. A white Peruvian bull in the eustody* of Jack Ryan, President of Glass of 1909, and Eugene Kelley, dircled the bases in record time. The ull was later disqualified for* not touching second. The pageant of color and costume ts always the afternoon divertisse- ment of every commencement, and Yesterday's fun served to inspire the Columbia baseball nino with confi- dence because ere the shades of night had fallen the boys in blue had @meared the horsehide sphere all over the lot to the tune of 10 to 3. Cor- nell never had @ ghost of a chanco with such cheer leaders as W. Mur- ray Lee and J. 8. Hedges, nephew of the immortal Job, of Class of 1911, handling the megaphone. Promptly at 4 P. M. the,north gate @f the field was swung open and about 150 members of ‘11 marched eut on the fleld. Brown's Band was merrily and jazzily fluting. All were Garbed in Egyptian attire, not one @like. ‘Those with Island of Yap|¥! multi-colored parasols were R. Klugescheid, President of the J. S. Hedges, Vico President; Demorest, Sam McKeown, W. M Yay Lee. The class was awarded th prize for the most colorfui costumes. Next came the Class of '20, Engi+ neers, with Thomas Barrish, Presi- dent. ‘The class was dressed in brown Overalls with the enginsering tools embroidered on their chests and caps in white, Behind them came a home- made still, in operation—anash, coils, condenser and——. ‘hero was a trailer directly behind. A folding brass rail and a box of sawdust were Provided for customers to use freely. Lech Zychlinski appeared ta be chief engineer of tne still. Roland Soule, Steve P. Burke, Al Lewis and Dick Burman were chief aids ir. keeping ‘the still functioning. Whesling this still and bar over the diamond almost caused a rict m the Bust Stand, where many sat who wert half in- clined to believe prohibition had al- ready set in. Samson Selig, with a ha ner read- ing, “The Bad Men of (vlumbia,” eased a few 1906 classmates through the gate. Samson and his cohorts were sporting pistols at their belts. The cutest flannel trousers with baby blue powder puffs sewed to the legs, and white shirts with blue sashes s Ball Nine Cornell. nival costume of Bombay came the class of 1919, with Dick Rogers and T. J. Farrell holding up the ban- ners, The most dignified members of the alumni were the boys of '96, with their “civies,” blue and white hat- bands and delicatessen canes. An one array. ‘he Quakers, class of 1907, dress th typical Society of Friends style, their blue +blouses long and drawn in by @ belt; their kneo breeches and ‘tall: conical-shaped hate, white hose and old shoes completed a weill- conceived outfit. They carried ban- ners with mottoes. The most sig- nificant one was: “We believe z Peace and ,Prosperity, but Prohibition.® ‘Thos. who carried the evan. were: E. C. Bailey, G. W. Hoyni R. G@ Conried, L. J. Wolf and W. it Schwarz. About a do-2n of the class of 1913 attended the afternoon's fes- tivities—Herb Bertrand, W. J. Tim- mons and C. G. Sinclair were ring- leaders. They had no costumes, but made merry and admitted that while in collpge they were dubbed “the roughhouse class."" Marching onto the field in lockstep were those of the class of 1914. Who doesn't remember that this class copped the boating honors that year for Columbia. And they sailed the pounding main yesterday dressed as fresh-water sailors—Al Graham, Kir- by Grafton, Richaré Roberts, Ernest Slade, Francis McDonald and Georgie Matheson. When the Columbia batsmen began to drop three-base hits in left field the white Peruvian bull and the one- hump camel, which were tethered in that locality, were ruled off tho fleld for disorderty conduct. Hickman Price and T. W. Kennedy had quite a task persuading the W. P. bull and O. H. dromedary that they should refrain from questioning the arbiter’s decision. A nice time was had by all, and all classes agreed to hold another Commencement next ear. As one happy “grad” chirped: “We will now file out singin~ ‘Colum- bia, the Gin of Emotion!’ ——2—— BATTLE FOLLOWS HOLD-UP; ONE SHOT Robbed Taxi Driver Gives Alarm and Negro Drops After Running Fight. A well dressed negro hailed Sydney Burger's taxicab at 140th Street and Fifth Avenue at 1 A. M. to-day, and when he got in ordered Burger to “turn around and go the other way.” As Burger turned the negro poked a revolver into his ribs and said: “Gimme all you got!” Burger had $200 in one pocket and $4 in another. He handed over the $4. ‘The negro jumped down and started away and Burger began tooting his horn. Policeman Herman Gordon heard and pursued the fleeing bandit, being joined by a negro police re- servist, Corpl. A. B. Matthews. The robber turned and fired four shots at THE EVENING WORLD, THURSDAY, JUNE 2, White Plains is to be a thing of the Feo twenty-five years old, at No. 210 West “a jung With Back) past.
