EFighty-Seven Scholarship, The Class of Eighty-Seven is: en- deavoring to create a scholarship to perpetuate the memory of their Jate classmate, John Bennetto. With this end in view a committee was recently appointed from the members of the Class to make plans for raising the money and to solicit ‘subscriptions. The committee has thus far received over thirteen hundred dollars in cash and in addition thas received pledges for one thousand dollars. It is hoped that the fund will ultimately amount to something over twenty-five hundred dollars. The conditions upon which the gift will be presented to the University have not, as yet, been determined. The committee in charge have decided to wait until every member of the Class has been heard from and until al] pledges are redeemed. No notification will be conveyed to the College. at. de . ~ewr Ninety-Seven Dinner. Ninety-Seven took possession of the Yale Club in New York, Saturday even- ing, March 11, the occasion being the first large dinner of the Class since graduation, It was also the first regu- lar reunion of the Class this Winter, and these two causes combined to bring together a large and enthusiastic crowd. Fifty-seven men had signified their intention of being present, and enough eleventh-hour people came in to make Over sixty at the tables. Ninety-Six had about the same number at their dinner recently, and the two classes may therefore be said to divide honors, for the largest and most successful reunions in the history of the Club. The attend- ance was by no means confined to New York men, a number coming from Connecticut, New Jersey and various - cities in New York State. As a result there were many meetings of men who had not seen each other for nearly two years, which added greatly to the enthusiasm and pleasure of the evening, Soon after the dinner had been served, men who* had been prevented fror: attending by other engagements’ beg: to drop in for the smoker which f lowed. In the midst of this a telegrz was received from Chicago, which sai “College Club drinks to Ninety- Seven, (signed) Winterbotham, Patter- son, Nolan, Thompson.” The reading of this provoked great applause and an answer was at once sent to these Chica- go Ninety-Seven men at the University Club in that city, saying: “New York to Chicago, Greetings! Here’s to Ninety-Seven.” It was at a late hour that the gathering finally commenced to disperse, after the most successful meeting yet held—for the three ““smokers” of last Winter did not sticceed in bringing out half the number of men nor one-third the amount of Class spirit. For these rea- sons it would seem probable that the Ninety-Seven dinner will become an annual event. ee er Prof. Harper Will Lecture.
