TALE ALUMNI WHEEKLY O15 a a MASSACHUSETTS ALUMNI. Their Meeting at Worcester — Prof. Richards on Athletics. The twenty-second annual dinner of the Yale Alumni Association of Central and Western Massachusetts was held Thursday evening, April 5, at the Wor- cester Club, Worcester, Mass. About twenty-five alumni were present, most of them from Springfield and Worcester. The Faculty was represented by Prof. Eugene L. Richards, ’60, who was given a very warm reception. Herbert Par- ker, Harvard ’78, former District Attor- ney and one of the leaders of the Wor- cester bar, was present and made an earnest address expressive of the cordial relations existing between the two Uni- versities. At the business meeting preceding the dinner, the following officers were elected for the year: President, Edward Gilbert, 81, of Ware; Vice-Presi- dents, Hon. Henry L. Dawes, ’39, of Pittsfield, Dr, Frederick H. Baker, ex- ‘OI, of Worcester, Hon. William G. Bassett, of Easthampton, William N. Washburn, ’74, of Greenfield; Treas- urer, Jonathan Barnes, ’85, of Spring- field; Secretary, Franklin J. Abbe, ’93, of Worcester. _ : Philip W. Moen, the retiring Presi- dent, was toastmaster. In his opening remarks, he extended a hearty welcome to Prof. Richards, whom he had known, he said, as a stern disciplinarian but eminently fair. Such a reputation was preferable, in his opinion, to any other. PROF. RICHARDS’ SPEECH. Prof. Richards was given three rous- ing cheers as he rose to speak. He said in part: “President Hadley could not have sent any member of the Faculty, with possibly one exception, who knew more of the old days at Yale than I do. The changes have been many since I came to Yale in ’56. I am glad to say that I am authorized by the Presi- dent to tell you that Old South Middle will be kept standing as long as possible. I can also announce that a new Yale fence, like the old fence, is to be put up. It will have three rails, too, and the middle one will not be left out, either.” | After reference to the extension of the elective system, Prof. Richards touched upon the cohesive community spirit at Yale which he said was kept alive, in a great measure, by athletics. He expressed the opinion that the new fence would be useful in this connec- tion. “I’m glad,” said Prof. Richards, “that we have a President now who be- lieves in athletics. With such men as Camp, Brown, Allen and Johnson at the head of their respective teams, the athletic interests of Yale will be well taken care of. If they win they will win like gentlemen, if they lose they will lose like men.” (Long applause. ) Herbert Parker said Yale men had al- ways made it warm for Harvard, and the reception given him was no excep- tion. He remarked that it was the first time he had ever been permitted to sit on the Yale grand stand and that there had been occasions in the past when his feelings had been much like the weather. “Nobody rejoices more in a victory of Yale than we of Harvard,” said Mr. Parker, “and though we have often battled together we have both been actuated by the same high ambition.” 5 as Keep’s Collars, 15 cts. each.
