On account of the death of Patrick
Murray, the veteran hackman, the car-
riage arrangements have been turned
over to Mr. Kirk. The system of tak-
ing carriages to and from the concert,
germans and Prom. will remain the
same as under Mr. Murray’s manage-
ment.
As usual, the Prom. will he held in
the Armory on Meadow street. Last
year a new floor was laid which, when
polished, proved a better dancing sur-
face than that afforded in previous
years by covering the floor with crash
or canvas. This year the floor will be
Price,
thoroughly cleaned and waxed, and ~
shouldbe in even better condition than
last year.
THE DECORATIONS AT THE PROM.
Koster of New York has had charge
this year of the interior decoration of
the Armory. The prevailing colors he
has chosen to use are Turkey red and
white. The ceiling will be festooned
with light blue. Combinations of the
‘red and white will cover the walls and
will be brought into contrast by black
and gold Japanese hangings so ar-
ranged as to form alternating panels.
Smilax will be used to cover the
girdérs which support the roof and for
the floral trimmings in general. _Banks
of palms and both cut and potted flow-
ers will be used for decorations at the
entrance, stairways and background.
All the floral decorations will be fur-
nished by Champion of New Haven.
The supper arrangements are to be
in the hands of Maresi of New York.
As usual, there will be eighteen regu-
lar dances, eighteen intermissions and
five extras. The music for the Prom.
will be furnished by Landers of New
York. His orchestra will play the
waltz music and his band will play for
the two steps and in the intermissions.
The dance orders for the ladies are
white leather, having a blue and gold
seal, with gold streamers on the front
and the word “Yale” woven about a
wooden spoon. The orders for the
men are slightly smaller, of dark russet
leather, with the same seal. Both con-
tain the regular dances with composers
and spaces for dances, intermissions
and extras.
NO FLOWERS.
In the line of eliminating unnecessary
expenses, the Ninety-Nine Committee
has followed the lead of previous Prom.
Committees in voting that flowers
should not be sent to the young ladies.
It is to be hoped that the men who
attend the Prom. will abide by their
decision, so that the custom may be
well established.
