Although the plan of wearing uniforms in the parade of June 3 has been definitely given up, we should, at least, endeavor to avoid that irregular appearance which a crowd of students, attired in all sorts of costumes, from golf suits to cutaways, would produce. An effect of regularity may be produced without any extra expense if each student taking part in the parade will wear white ducks, and a straw hat with his class ribbon. I believe that this impromptu uniform is as comfortable and convenient as any that could be devised, and I have already heard a considerable...

...result of the mass meeting last night that the students are willing to go into the Cambridge parade with some sort of enthusiasm and to do their part to make the event, which is so eagerly looked forward to by citizens of Cambridge, a success. The decision about the wearing of caps and gows, though likely to detract somewhat from the general effect, will doubtless induce many more men to march. As was suggested by a correspondent a short time ago, it would be a good plan if the Seniors should agree to wear their regular Class Day gowns...
