Yes, there are 65 of us present waiting the arrival of our transports to take us "over there." The 119th Field Artil lery are stationed here and in this regiment there are 14 officers who hail from M. A. C. and 35 enlisted men who proudly proclaim this same Alma Mater. The 409th Motor Train boasts of six Aggies. The Ordnance Corps has four. The Detention Corps has three and the Ambulance claims the same number. Undoubtedly there are others whom we have not as yet seen. We all have been here since Mon day and each evening have held a reunion. New York received us one eve' but the military authorities have decided not to let the boys loose there again. Patterson, N.

This year's junior hop was an un usual event in more ways than one. In the first place it marked the open ing and was the first use to which the new gymnasium has been put by the college. Secondly, the hop was unique in that it was a strictly home; affair, both banquet and dance being arranged by college people and held on the campus, and the decorations, pleasing and sufficient, although not of the usual elaborate nature, were' planned and executed entirely by members of the class. The banquet and reception were held in the Woman's building and the party adjourned about 9 to the gym nasium for dancing. The banquet was prepared in Club C and served by sophomore girls. The toasts were es pecially good, the general theme of those responding being descriptive of the work of the 1919 class "in the trenches." President J. L. Engels presided as toastmaster and the fol lowing responded: Zero Hour, C. F. Ramsey; Artillery Barrage, Claudice Cober; Over the Top, Russell Mont gomery; No Man's Land, Gertrude Rogers; Rest Billets, Newton Reed. The gymnasium hall was very tas tily decorated with flags and greens. A blue and white canopy effected by parallel strips of crepe paper covered the the hall being draped from the ceil ing to the galleries.
