CAPS ARE HERE
Freshmen Have Pictures Taken
While Wearing '08 Caos.
A Liiirgo Ilotfy of tho Class AHAomblcs at
Toivnuend'H Studto.
A large part of the Freshman Class
assembled at Townsend'B studio early
yesterday morning and after the '08
caps, which have been looked for for
so long by the upperclassmen, had
been distributed for the first time to
those wfro had ordered them the body
had their pictures taken, while the
much talked of headdress adprned
their brows.
Arrangements had previously been
made with' Mr. Townsend and the
more enthusiastic ones in the class
awakened from their slumbers in time
to gather at the studio at 6:30 a. m.,
when the first setting was taken. The
pictures had to be taken in three
groups in order to accomodate the
large number present. In order to
assure the success of the venture three
plates were "cracked" by each group.
About half of the body consisted of
first year "co-eds."
After the .pictures were taken each'
party was allowed to retain the cap
and was Instructed to keep the same
concealed and all meet at Hay Market
square at 7 j$. m., when the headgear
would again be doned and the streets
paraded.
Unfortunately, however, some of the
more thoughtless in the class allowed
the plans to leak out and the Sopho
mores were informed of the situation
late In the forenoon. They immedi
ately began to make plans for prevent
ing the wearing of the obnoxious caps.
The Freshmen learned of the plans
of the upperclassmen and concluded
to postpone the appearance of the caps
until some "fiioro favorable time.
A crowd of considerable Size, com
posed mostly of Sophomores and Jun
iors gathered on the campus last even
ing to await the Freshmen's appear
ance. When the body 'of the class
failed to put in its appearance they
amused themselves by searching the
more helpless "stragglers" whom they
3uspectfid of having one. of the caps
about their clothing. The Sophomores
succoeded In securing one cap in this
manner:- The crowd dispersed about
9:30 p. m.
The, caps ore said to be among the
neatest ever seen on the campus. The
body of the cap is a lavender color,
the numerals being of a bright red.
The "8" is set Inside the "0."

tion of a play entitled "The.Iri3h

topics of Interest, including "the Uni

System," "Literary Societies and the
School," "pollege Fraternities" and
the "Rise of the Law School," cannot
help but give a certain dignity to the
book. These features coupled with
the number of drawings, designs and
cartoons which has been the work of
real talent. The leather cover and
excellent engarvings all go to make
the forthcoming Sombrero a book that
will be an ornament to any parlor
tabic. Next Thursday the Board con
templates putting on sale a handsome
souvenir of all the best thlng3 of uni
versity life. This year's Sombrero Is
