CLASS NOTICES.
Ninety-Two Sexennial.
The Sexennial reunion of our class
will be held in New Haven on June 28.
It will be the only Sexennial meeting
we will ever have.
There is not a member of the class
whose presence is not needed to make
the meeting what is should be—an old-
fashioned Ninety-Two game. We used
to know how to do it. Let’s do it
again.
The Committee have decided to
assess ten dollars for sexennial ex-
penses. This will include the cost of a
sexennial record. Ninety-Two is the
only class which has been out of Col-
lege six years without publishing a
class book.
Harmonie Hall has been engaged,
Colt’s band of Hartford will be ours
for the day and night and a tender-
hearted caterer has consented to feed
us. We will occupy a prominent sec-
tion of the bleachers at the ball game,
and trolley cars have been secured to
carry us to and from the Field.
You can greatly increase the chances
of a sticcess and lessen the labors of the
Committee by replying as early as pos-
sible. Please make checks payable to
the order of A. H. Swayne.
Members of the class can, secure
rooms in East Divinity by writing to
FE. F. Hill, East Divinity, New Haven,
Conn. The charge will be one dollar
a day. :
