1925 HOLDS TRADITIONAL PICNIC TODAY IN STADIUM

ARM BANDS TO BE GIVEN OUT FOR IDENTIFICATION

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

With examination worries past and only Commencement formalities between them and their degrees, the Seniors will revive this afternoon the traditional Senior picnic. The class will assemble at 1.30 o'clock in the Yard and march in a body to the Stadium, where the whole afternoon will be devoted to organized and unorganized amusement.

G. P. Baker Jr. '25 and P. H. Theopold '25, members of the Class Committee, are in charge of the arrangements. They have announced that numerous informal baseball games will be played and that a series of athletic and semi-athletic contests will be run off. There will be obstacle races, three-lagged races, sack races, potato races, and other tests of skill, strength, and agility.

Arm Bands Necessary

The committee has especially requested that the entire class march to the field, rather than motor down and join the class there. Arm bands for identification purposes will be given out in the Yard as the procession starts, and these bands will be needed to gain admission through the Stadium gates, which will be closed to all outsiders. Old clothes are to be worn, is the word of the committee.

Senior picnics were formerly a regular event in the program of the graduating class, but after 1922 were discarded. The custom is being revived this year. The picnic, as has always been the case, will be financed by the money begged from the Freshman class before the latter's picture was taken. The sum collected this spring was larger than any previous one in the history of the Senior beggings, it amounted to $244.24.
