The sphere had been painted black and a large white figure eight stenciled on to represent the class emblem, an eight ball. The present senior class, which is due to receive its diplomas at the 192nd commencement exercises on Tuesday, was ordered by its class President to wear white trousers and dark coats for today's parade instead of their traditional beer suits.

They brought up the rear of the marching column. Swinging around the outskirts of the baseball diamond infield, the seniors drew to a halt to wait for the rush order of their President, Mr. Edward W. Hobler, of Bronx-ville. At the order came the halt, skelter rush for the stands, with the less fortunate left in a spraw ling trailing line at the rear.

Once again, the 3,000 alumni, accompanied by the crowds in the stands, stood for the traditional ceremony of singing "Old Nassau," the Princeton alma mater song. Mr. C. Lambert Heyniger, '16, performed his office of leader, and the field once more echoed with the melody that has been sung by succeeding generations of Princeton men. The "grads'' then took up their seats in the grandstand and the first ball was tossed out for the Yale baseball game.

After the contest the crowd proceeded to Palmer Stadium for the sixth annual invitation track meet. Mrs. E. Gordon Oskamp has sent oul; invitations for a tea on Wednesday, June 21st from 3 to 5 o'clock at her residence on Neeb Road. Mr.

The extras, who will not be paid, must be "average height." IHREE THOUSAND gaily garbed alumni turned the quiet little town of Prince ton into a gay wonder land of sparkling color and tunes on Saturday as they staged their annual parade from historio Nassau Hall to University Field and then settled down for an afternoon of athletics. The occasion was the climax of the annual reunion program of Princeton University. "Old grads" have been filtering into town ever since the celebrat ion opened "Thursday afternoon. Saturday's procession, followed by the traditional Tale baseball game and the sixth annual invitation track meet, ended a week end of alumni activities.

A crowd of friends and relatives, numbering at least four thousand, witnessed the parade from along the line of march or from bleacher seats on University Field. The crowd filled bleacher sections on three sides of the field and formed a solid line across thhe fourth side upon the conclusion of the parade. The lines formed early in the aft ernoon on the front campus, and promptly at 1:30 o'clock the procession moved out through the Fitz-Randolph gates, opened but once a year for this occasion. The marchers then proceeded down Nassau Street, the famed section of the historic colonial highway between New York and Philadelphia. After a short journey eastward, the parade moved south to Pros pect Street, the avenue of Prince ton's upper class clubhouses.

Down the shaded avenue to the huge Thompson gateway, guarded by two sculptured tigers, and into the walled enclosure which is University Field. Here the classes passed in re view before the crowd that had preceded it to the site. For 45 minutes the classes paraded slowly by, eleven bands playing and numerous banners flying, while cheer after cheer arose from their friends and followers in the grandstand and bleachers sections. A radiant sun was reflected in the hundreds of brilliant colors seen everywhere, with the result that the scene took on the semblance of a holiday carnival. Heading the line of march as Grand Marshal for the day was Mr.

J. Henry Leh, '21, of Allentown, Pa. Flanked by color guards, Mr. Leh moved through the gate and proceeded around the line of march marked out by "Parade" Committee men. The place of honor at the head of the procession was held by the class of 1914, back on the campus of their alma mater for their silver anniversary.

Attired in white mili tary uniforms and South African pith helmets, the group paraded behind the 244th Coast Artillery Band of New York City. Marching with the class was Dr. Harold W. Dodds, President of the university, made an honorary mem ber of the class of '14 for the occasion. Halfway around the marching course, Dr.

Dodds entered the bleachers and took up his posi tion in the reviewing stand. From this spot he greeted each class as it passed in review. Directly behind the honor class came a small contingent marching behind the old guard banner. The organiza tion, composed of men who were graduated from Old Nassau more than 50 years ago, was headed by Dr. William H.

Vail of Newark, a member of the class of '65 and Princeton's second oldest living alumnus. When the old guard reached the reviewing stand Dr. Vail was invited to join President Dodds for the remainder of the afternoon. The members of the organization took their seats directly behind the Princeton dugout and witnessed the remainder of the parade from that position. Seven smartly uniformed young ladies from the Junior Drum and Bugle Corps of Princeton carried the colors for the class of '94, celebrating its forty-fifth reunion.

The bugle corps Itself, attired in orange and black, with flowing capes, pro vided one of the most colorful appearances on the field. The class members wore various costumes, though black coats and white trousers predominated. Straw- hats, because of the heat, were also very much in evidence. Parasols and pith or straw helmets were favored by the classes of '96, '97, and '98. With the class of 1899, back for their fortieth celebration, was the Princeton Municipal Band.

The famous "Sacred Bird" of the class, IL-i 'J atop a large float guarded by honorary class guards. A group of father Divines Angels costumed in blackface accompanied the float. Small groups were on hand to represent the classes of '89, the Century class of 1900 and the class of '01. Each carried a banner bearing the Princeton colors and the class numerals. Costumes were informal, although not uniformed as were most of these worn by the On reunion sections.

One of the largest marching contingents on the field was the class. of '04, celebrating its thirty-fifth reunion on the orange and black campus. Like the class of 1934, the marchers wore Scottish uniforms of orange and black plaid, tartan, kilt and bonnet. White leggings completed the costumes. -Accompanying the '04 boys was the Lovat pipe band which came by the reviewing stand jwith pipes skirling and drums beating in a fast march that brought cheer after cheer from those in the bleacher seats.

Small foliowings marched behind the banners of '05 and '06. Following was the class of '07, clothed in grey coats, the popular straw, hats and white linen trousers. A large group of class children pre-ceeded the marchers while the first battalion naval militia band marked the step with marches. Princeton University's own stu dent band marched with the class of '09, celebrating its thirtieth an niversary. Daughters and wives were numerous among the pa-raders.

The class uniform was of white linen, with the numerals embroidered on the front coat pocket. The group marched four abreast and extended for a full ciyt block on the parade course. The John A. Dean American Legion Band, Post No. 154 of But ler, N.

accompanied the class of 1912. Class members wore striped orange and black jackets with white linen trousers, the traditional costume adopted by the class by official vote several years ago. With the class of 1913 was a small, rotund gentleman attired in the class jacket of orange and black. His shirt open and his sun helmet well back on his perspiring head, the grad drew peals of laughter from those watching the parade as he attempted to lead a musical trio composed of a bass drummer and two guitar strummer. The next large class in line "was that of 1919, back for their twen tieth reunion.

Here again a large group of children of alumni of that year preceded the main marching body. The classmates themselves were attired in solid orange jackets with the number "19" stenciled on the front pocket. The accompany ing band was the American Legion Post No. 29 outfit from Greenwich, Connecticut. Class children carried the ban ner for the class of 1920.

The class of 1921 followed professor Henderson of the Princeton department of physics, an accomplished piper who donned full dress uniform for the affair and turned out to pipe his class down the parade course and past the reviewing stand. A truck, filled with members of the class, bore a large sign stating, "Always in the Van. English sailor uniforms, with blue silk blouses, white linen pants, and colorful sashes, were worn by the class of 1922 marchers. The uniforms were recognized two years ago, on the occasion of the fif teenth reunion of the class, as being the most colorful on the parade ground. Another unique and interesting costume was displayed by the large clas of 1924, back for their fif- teentn reunion.

ine group was at tired in white chef uniforms and followed a float upon which was being prepared a large feast. The class motto; borne aloft on a huge sign, stated, 'We can dish it out." With the '24 marchers was the 157th Field Artillery band from Camden, N. J. Classes of '25 and 25 followed, the latter attired in red jackets and blue pants. The 27 group sported locomotive fire men's costumes -with orange jackets, black pants and large black caps with protruding beaks.

Four men on a tandem bicycle accompanied the class of '29. A man in full dress suit, accompanied by several urchins who shouted and jumped up and down the course, walked under a sign stating, "Top hat to tatters," signi fying the various positions In life held by the class members. Probably the largest and most colorful class on the entire field was that of 1934. Attired, like their forerunners of 1904, in the orange and black kilties, the group marched four abreast and covered In Waterfront Strike When Police Fire Low Info (Jronp Of Union Men Refineries At Philadelphia Tied Up. Kingston, Jamaica, June 18 (AP) One man mortally wounded today when police fired volleys while convoying a group of workers of a rival union to United Fruit Company ships where a strike of waterfront laborers had been in progress.

Police said the strikers threw stones as the workers were convoyed to the docks, and that one shot of the volley fired over the workers' heads proved low. The strikers denied stoning police. The injured worker was taken to a hospital "where he died after an amputation of an arm. Philadelphia, June 18 (UP) Negotiations were at a standstill today in a walkout of 2,700 employees of three sugar refineries here, the largest refining center in the world. The strike was called Friday by the Sugar Refinery Workers' Union, an American Federation of Labor affiliate.

Spokesmen for the union said negotiations collapsed when the companies asked a 15 per cent salary decrease, said to be necessary to meet competition of sugar refined in sugar-producing countries. The union sought a 10 per cent increase in the basic wage of 63 cents an hour. There was little picketing and no disorders were reported at any of the three plants. The refineries affected were the Pennsylvania Sugar Company, employing the Franklin Sugar Refining Company, with 900, and the W. J.

Mc-Cahan Sugar Refining and Molasses Company, with 800, Washington, June 18 (AP) Th National Labor Relations Board said today that the Wagner Act had saved the nation $33,000,000 by "conservative estimate" last year. This conclusion was reached by David J. Saposs, NLRB chief economist, in a study which showed that operation of the act cost $2,700,000, or $1 for each worker involved in the 11,488 cases handled by the NLRB in 1938. Saposs estimated the law saved $16,700,000 in wages and an equal amount for employers and communities by averting the loss of 4,779,907 man-days of strike. CHURCH SCHOOL OPENS.

ER WET EYES opened childishly wide. He would have died all by himself, "And now you're getting him a job." The young man was undeniably interested. "Is he hard up?" "Yes, but it isn't that. He's got to find his place again. He's got to think he belongs.

"He needs people. "If you could talk to him, give him some little job, tell him you need him Kay had never put hr heart into anything a3 she was doing now. The red-haired young man thought it over, his narrowed, speculative eyes on Kay. So this little lady wasn't Larry Corbet's girl, only his wife. It was funny and, on the other hand, not funny at all.

Kay leaned forward, eager eyes on his face. "Look," he said at last. "Every one of these ranches has to be surveyed, then a plat has to be made for the buyer. "I could send the figures to your husband and he could make the plats. We'd pay him so an hour we'd fix that." KAY TREMBLES.

Kay put the back of one hand across her tremoling mouth. Her wet eyes thanked him. 'It means a lot to you, doesn't it, little girl?" he asked. She nodded without speaking. He got up and she also rose.

"You give me the directions and I'll drive out in half an hour. 'I'll sty I heard he was a civil engineer and explain wnat we want. How's that?" "Swell," she breathed, eyes shin ing. Simply swell. 'My name is Judd Simpson, by the way." "I am Kay Kay Corbet," hesi tating over the name.

Judd Simpson watched her out of sight. If a man could find a girl like that, he thought. She isn't his girt, only his wife. Poor little kid. He went out and changed a tire in the.

heat, preparatory to going into the hills in search of a engineer. About a quarter of a mile from the cottage Kay came upon Larry. He sat on a rock at the side of the road, he tried twice before to get to his feet. Painfully he hobbled to the car. "You live fer 'bouts here, little boy?" she called gaily, coming to a stop.

"Too durn far," he sighed, set tling in the seat beside her. It took so little to encourage her. Wonderful that he missed her. Sometimes she thought him un conscious of her presence for days at a time. "Oh, I'm the original little cheer bringer," she said, and added to herself, "and such cheer." "Wait till you know what I know." "I got to thinking suppose you never came back," he went on.

You could do that, Kay. Just drive away in your car "Our car," she corrected him. and never come back. I would not blame you." "What brought this on?" lightly. "I'm such a burden to you and myself.

If I could only die then you'd be free." Even when he whittled furiously his face was never so white and drawn. FRIGHTENED GLANCE. Kay cast a frightened glance at him. Had he come to meet her because he was afraid of what he might do? She decided her trip to the Improvement Office had not been a day too soon. Larry dropped to one of the big chairs on the terrace and Kay went to the kitchen.

Passing through the living room she glanced about with pride. All her labor and plans had worked wonders. It was a charming place. The windows shone. The old leather chairs, cracked and fuzzy, had been disguised with gay slip covers.

Kay had toiled over the slip cov ers, stitching them by hand, fitting them carefully. A great bowl of mountain flowers, flanked on each side by a bronze candlestick, sat on the pol ished table. Magazines, books, and smoking things were scattered conveniently about. la the kitchen the pump worked Jack A. Meyer, 12, son of Mrs Ruth Meyer, 2353 Chickasaw Street, Clifton, a graduate of St.

At last Judd reluctantly got to his feet. "Try it out, old man," he said. "Let your wife bring the drawings down to the office every day or so and I'll send back more data." He did not wait for Larry's reply. Kay walked with him to the car. "I have no doubt you're the nicest man that ever lived," she said warmly, her glowing face flushed with gratitude.

DUTIFUL WIFE. "A dutiful wife shouldn't say things like that," he returned lightly, "nor turn such a gaze on a mere man." She dropped her eyes. "Of course I meant with the exception of Larry," she said demurely. "If this job turns the trick for him you will have done your good deed for today and many days to come. She was radiantly happy uon iorget tnat you had a important part in it." Leaning from the car he looked down at ifier.

'T should think he'd be the hap piest man in the world, but he looks nckea. "Is something troubling him?" Kay noddid, her face shadowing. 'His girl Brenda Kent, you know. "He loves her very much." It was a simple statement of fact. "You mean now?" incredulously.

"After what she did to him and when he has you?" "Oh, yes." "Well, 1 11 be." Backing out of the drivewty Judd frowned and muttered to himself. FINDS LARRY. Kay found Larry in the living-room, tugging at a heavy table. can use this for a drawing table," he panted. "'Get it over by the north light Kay threw her we'ght against the table.

She found a chair of the right height. Larry spread out the rulers and queer appliances. His mouth was set determinedly, a faint pink tinged his pale cheeks. "Can I do it, Kay?" he asked, waiting for her encouragement, seeming to need it. He must have seen the love in her eyes, the glorious, self-sacrificing love.

It was there to be seen. "You can do it," she said with gentle firmness. "Take one at a time, work it out slowly. "It will be hard, but you can do it." Larry straightened his shoulders and took a deep breath. "Shall I shall I start tonight?" He was pathetically unsure, heart-breakingly boyish.

"Start right now before the light fails." Sitting down, he learwd over the table. Kay went to the kitchen and cried into a clean tea towel. (TO BE CONTINUED.)

A tightly covered bucket, lowered in the well, did duty as an ice box.

The stoves were blackened and shining. Keeping one eye on the road Kay iriade a pitcher of lemonade and cut thin slices of pound cake. Then, at the distant hum of a motor, her pulse quickened. A moment later Judd Simpson, true to his promise, drove through the gate. Standing at the window Kay saw Larry struggle to his feet and, after a scant hestitation.

extend a cordial hand. The two men sat down and soon were engaged in earnest conversation. Judd went to his car and re turned with paper, pen, ink, rulers with nnepp attachments, all man ner of unfamiliar articles. Kay saw Larry handle them hungrily. He gave the impression of being slightly out of breath.

After a while she went out to the terrace. Larry got up slowly, Judd with swift ease. LARRY INTRODUCES. "Mr. Simpson," Larry said, want you to meet my wife." It was the first time he had introduced Kay, she wondered if it might be the first time he had thought of her as his wife.

His voice was different, not so flat. It had an encouraging quality of repressed eagerness. "How do you do, Mrs. Corbet." Judd said easily. "I came out to see your husband Larry broke in.

"He heard I was an engineer, Kay, he needs help on the project down at Los Robles," rich pride coloring his words. "You mean the big Improvement Company?" as if amazed.

"Seem to be having a little trouble getting my strength back." Kay sat down near Larry. Her eyes adored him.
