288 | YALE ALUMNI WHEEKLY A Providence UWniversity Club College graduates in Providence, R. I., have recently been agitating the for- mation of a University Club in that city, and about thirty were present at the first meeting of those interested in the project. At this meeting S. Minot Pitman of Harvard, was elected Chair- man, and Professor E. B. DeLabarre, Secretary. A Committee whose duty it is to make a regular canvass for mem- bers was also appointed, consisting of the following: Professor E. B. De- Labarre of Amherst; S. Minot Pitman of Harvard; Rev. A. M. Lord of Har- vard; W. R. Callender, Yale ’94; . Dr. J. E. Sullivan, College of New York; G. H. Webb of Brown; Judge Loring M. Cook of Brown; Ex-Mayor E. D. McGuinness of Brown; A. A. Baker of Brown; F. M. Day of Brown. Although this Committee has been organized but a short time, it has met with remarkable success, having a pledged membership of one hundred and three, among whom are United States Senator George Peabody Wet- more, Yale 67, and twenty-five other Yale graduates. The Committee has the refusal of a house on College street, which will be engaged when two hun- dred and fifty names are secured. The object of the Club is similar to that of all University clubs throughout the country—sociability and a spirit of fraternity among college men. It is of course the ultimate intention of the members of the Club to erect a club house. 7 a Ninety-Three Dinner. A dinner of the Ninety-Three men in and about New York was held at the Yale Club, Saturday evening, April 20. Twenty-three men were in attendance, as follows: Parsons; Swayne; Chat- field; L. E. Brown; W. E. Dwight; H. R. Dwight; H. C. Allen; A. J. Martin; R. Burchard; J. W. Allen; C. J. Fay; J. MynCooke: Co. Re Mickox. [re 22-1). Bliss; W: J.. Lamson; H. D.. Bradley; T.:-A. Gardiner; John H. Morgan; T. Cy “Lrasxer: bie tea: aoottomes?: BiB. Barnes, Jr.; F. W. Hastings, Jr., and L. A’ Welles. W. E. Dwight reported, for the Sex- ennial Committee, that a hall and band had been engaged for Sexennial cele- bration, and that thus far somewhat over twenty men had paid the amount of the Sexennial assessment to. the Treasurer of the Committee. He re- ported further that the Sexennial Com- mittee had procured a hall for a supper, to be held Wednesday, October 21, 1901, the principal day of the Bi-centennial celebration. This will not be expected to interfere with either the Sexennial or - the Decennial, as it comes two years after the one and two years before the other. . Songs, which they made familiar to the Class in College, were sung with apparently undiminished zeal by Gardi- ner; H. C. Allen; Bottome and Swayne. As Breeze was unavoidably detained in San Francisco, the Scotch song which he introduced and frequently sung for the Class, was sung by all present with great gusto. E The meeting lasted until Sunday morning. ARS SS Kentucky Association. Hon. J. Stoddard Johnston, ’53, Presi- dent of the Yale Alumni Association of Kentucky, has appointed as members of the Executive Committee for the ensu- ing year, Messrs. Charles T.
