PRINCETON SENIOR COUNCIL UPHOLDS FRESHMAN CUSTOMS

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

That the present Freshman regulations requiring black ties, socks, garters and shoes, and forbidding fur coats except in exceptional circumstances, should be respected as part of the most time-honored traditions of Princeton, was the unanimous sentiment at a recent meeting of the Princeton Senior Council. Ways and means for enforcement of these regulations were discussed at length.

One of the most interesting of the conclusions of the meeting was the institution of a new Freshman, custom with regard to attendance at the movies. Beginning with next year's Freshman class, only on Wednesday and Saturday nights will the first-year men be permitted to attend the movies. This rule will be in force until the day of the Yale Freshman football game. If that game results in a victory, the restriction will be removed, but if the Princeton Freshmen lose, the rule will be enforced until Christmas vacation.
