CAPS AND GOWNS.

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

On May first the Yard will once more see the Seniors flitting from class to class attired in flowing black robes and balancing awkward square caps on their heads. For its final six weeks of undergraduate existence, 1919 will for the first and last time assume a scholarly aspect. The sedate Seniors will stumble along in unfamiliar skirts, to the detriment of their own good humor, until they receive the coveted sheepskin. Thus will one of our oldest traditions be continued.

All this will transpire provided the Seniors do not delay ordering their caps and gowns. To some men the price of a new outfit may seem excessive but none should find the cost of hiring one a deterrent from adhering to this time-honored custom. Caps and gowns are essential on Class Day and the burdens of the Class Day Committee will be greatly lightened by immediate action on the part of each individual Senior.
