No More Nightshirt Parades at Purdue.

Lafayette, Ind., Nov. 16.—-As a result of a conference last night by the student council of Purdue and the Lafayette police commissioners it was virtually agreed that the students will no longer be permitted to cross the bridge that spans the Wabash river and give a “nightshirt” parade here after Purdue wins a conference football, basket ball or baseball game. This has been the custom of the students for fifteen years, but the recent celebration over the lowa football victory, in which certain features of the celebration could have been omitted with propriety, caused complaint to be made to both the city and university authorities.
