‘CUT EXPENSES,'' IS PRINCIPALS’ PLEA TO GRADS Commencement Exercises to Put No Extra Load on Purses. Economy will be the keynote of the high school commencement programs, it has been indicated by the various principals. All the executives have announced to parents and to pupils in the senior class that simple, useful clothing should be preferred as graduation garb. DeWitt S. Morgan, principal of Technical high school, stated In a recent letter to the parents of all senior girls that “in view of the present economic situation, we hope to keep the coat of the commence - ment season at a minimum for our graduates.” Press Economy Plea An additional plea for economy was made at a senior meeting, when Morgan stated that every senior boy should feel free to wear any suit he now owns at the graduation exercises. Walter Gingery, principal of Washington high school, hopes to cut graduating expenses to a minimum by ordering the use of caps and gowns in the commencement exercises. Rental costs of the gowns is $1.50, and Gingery believes they will make it unnecessary for any pupil to buy new clothes. For class day exercises, the Washington principal has recommended that simple sport clothes be worn. In a special meeting of the senior class of Broad Ripple high school, Karll V. Ammerman, principal, urged that strictest economy be observed in clothing for graduation season. He also urged that pupils keep other commencement expenses at a minimum. Decide on Simple Garb In a letter to parents of all seniors, George Buck, principal of Shortridge high school, stated, “The depression makes me feel sure that I will get every co-operation when I ask for a commencement without any unnecessary expense. I hope to make this graduation beautiful without great cost to any one.” Buck said the senior class had decided to dress simply and uniformly. Boys are to wear dark coats, white trousers, white shirts, blue ties, and black or black and white shoes. Girls are to wear white semi-for-mal dresses. “This year is no exception for us,” declared E. H. Kemper McComb. principal of Manual Training high school, when asked if he had urged I any economy measures. “I have told the pupils to keep expenses down every year. Os course, the same is necessary this year, but in greater degree.” CLASS TO HEAR AQUARIUM TALK Children’s Museum Program Is Announced. R. T. Wilcox, authority on tropical fish, will talk at 9:30 Saturday morning on “Tropical Toys of the | Aquarium,” before the nature study : class at the Children's museum.
