The largest football celebration in the history of Yale will be given by the New York Yale Club tonight to the 1916 squad, coaches, and football committee.

Among the Yale men coming from all parts of the country will be ex-President Taft, Chauncey M. Depew, Vance C. McCormick, Chairman of the Democratic Campaign Committee; Cornelius Vanderbilt, Otto T. Bannard, Frank Woodward, ex-president of the Golf Association, and many others.

Yale's old time athletes will give the team a dinner at the Club; the men who have represented Yale in football, baseball, track, and crew, or who have been awarded a "Y", are, for the first time in Yale's athletic history, combining to do honor to a team, and with the further object of founding the Yale Varsity Club. Walter Camp, the father of Yale football and baseball; Bob Cook, the father of Yale rowing; Harry Brooks and Charlie Sherrill, the fathers of Yale track athletics; "Pudge" Heffiefinger, "Dutch" Carter, Fred Stevenson, captain of the '88 crew, which held the record of the Thames River course for twenty-eight years, and a host of others from Yale teams dating from the early sixties down to the present day, will be among the diners.

The Yale Club has engaged the entire Century Theatre, where the team will witness the Yale performance of the "Century Girl."
