Annex Party's Bottle Lands After 36-Year Trip at Sea

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

A bottle with a 36-year-old message in it from two 'Cliffedwellers of the classes of 1915 and 1917 was found last week by C. V. Davey at Martha's Vineyard and returned to Radcliffe College.

It was thrown off a boat in 1915 during the then-traditional senior sophomore boat trip, with the following message; "Thrown off the 'King Philip', Many 15, 1915, by a Senior and a Sophomore on the Harbor Trip made by the Seniors and Sophomores of Radcliffe College."

The party-girls were advised to wear "white skirts, white middy blouses, and yellow ties, black ties if you have no yellow."
