If each alumnus will report all the news about himself as fast as it is made, this department of the Weekly will reach its highest value and usefulness. The alumni rightly demand such news of one another and the Weekly is the place for them to get it and get it promptly and correctly. A great deal of time and money is spent in testing the accuracy of the notes that are handed in about 10,000 Yale men who live all over the world.

Those who know news about others, which has not ap- peared, are also strongly urged to con- tribute that news. <All communications ought, of course, to be signed, and when they are about any others than the writer, it is well to indicate the source of the in- formation, in order that every item may be safeguarded. ’25—The New Haven Board of Edu- cation have decided to name the new Canner Street Public School ‘“Worth- ington Hooker,” after the late Dr. Hooker, who was a member of the Board for several years. °46— Frederick J.
