NEW HAVEN THEATER GOERS ALARMED BY ELI STUDENTS

(Special Dispatch to the CRIMSON)

New Haven, Conn., Dec. 7--Alarm clocks sounded an important note in the theatrical world of New Haven last night. Patrons of a movie palace largely supported by Yale students were rudely awakened from their enjoyment of a band presentation on the stage by the strident tones of a bell such as pierce the skull of many a student on the morning after.

There was some hesitation at first on the part of the ushers whether to look on the stage or in the audience, but a second alarm, obviously in the rear of the theater convinced them that the orchestra was not the guilty party. The search then started off in earnest, the duet becoming a sextet almost coincidentally. To the consternation of some and the amusement of all--excepting, of course, the management--the six alarm clocks were finally found tied to the hatracks under six seats on the main floor of the theater.

The devilish ingenuity of this form or torment was attributed by the management to Yale students.
