A note from Eric Kelly states that Elon Pratt, whose wife, Mirabel, gave the famous jade collection to Dartmouth, has recently sent the College some mighty good Dartmouthiana, consisting of circulars and newspaper clippings. Among them was an old Delta Alpha poster, which is in demand among feature writers, who dig up stories of old time hazing every year. There was also an original Junior Honor list and a first edition gem in his poster of Cap Kelly's "FRESHMAN." And by the way if anyone has a copy of the play itself Eric says the College would be mighty glad to get it.
