Fifty Princeton students left college on Monday for a three-weeks' trip to Key West, during which they will receive practical instruction in navigation. The men, who are under the direction of Dr. A. G. Mayer, of the faculty at Princeton, have been preparing since last fall to take examinations for commissions in the Navy, and are finishing their theoretical work with actual practice on the water. The cadets have also received instruction in ordnance and gunnery under a naval officer.
