Many New Features
The book, dedicated to Henry Clay,
(contains many new features, including
a campus favorite section, containing
of the most

done in brown pebbled paper. The
rrrangement of the senior pictures is
'an innovation of the book, and has
' never before been used in the make-.uof a college annual.
The beauty section, containing pictures of the six most beautiful girls
