The reunion was arranged by a com mittee composed of John Mcllhcnny Smith, Ehrman B. Mitchell, Jr., and \V. C. Dunlap, which, by dint of great I endeavor, secured the first big list of I alumni and by greater endeavor got the men to the Academy. Before the talks there was singing by groups and | classes with the assistance of an or chestra composed of David Fleming, rird, Albert H. Stackpole and Daniel Kunkel.

He was followed by Vance C. McCormiek, president of the board of trustees of the Academy, in a speech in which he told of old days in the Academy in Front street, and of being catapulted down the river bank as a form of hazing and of kicking goals with an arc light as the goal post. Mr. McCor miek outlined what he hoped to see I the Academy some years hence. Ed i win S. Herman, one of the trustees, | went into the business end of affairs, ! referring to his old days and telling how the alumni could help the insti ; tution grow when it needed aid. Headmaster Arthur E. Brown was given an ovation when Mr. Smith pre sented him and his discussion of life at the school, his hopes and his de sires were received with the closest attention. Dr. Brown said that the Academy had an opportunity pos sessed by few schools in the country and pointed out how the institution could be made a great help to' the city. He emphasized the need of a dormitory to make the place self-sup porting.

Boyd Hamilton, chairman of an alumni committee which aided the school to secure equipment of Seiler field. A committee was then named to name officers and start things, consisting of E. Z.
