NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

On Thursday, October 22, of the present year, Princeton College will celebrate its 150th anniversary. The celebration will take four forms. There will be held an academic festival lasting three days, beginning October 20 and ending October 22. Then it is proposed to celebrate the anniversary by raising a large endowment for college and university work; it is desired to develop Princeton both as a strong college and a great university; it is proposed to announce formally the assumption of the official title of Princeton University. Three committees have been at work for over a year. It is expected that nearly all the living alumni will be present, and other universities, both American and foreign, will be invited to send delegates. President Cleveland is to deliver an address on the occasion.
