'95. Last Wednesday at noon, in St. Paul's Church, Rochester, Miss Anna Bayard Dod, of Hoboken, N. J., and William Sortore McCoy, of Rochester, were united in marriage. The ceremony was performed by the Rev. Murray A. Bartlett, rector of the church. The bridesmaids were Emma McCoy, of Rochester, a sister of the groom, and Miss Anna Viele, of Geneva, the bride's cousin. The groom's best man was Oliver Dudley Burden, '96, of Syracuse the ushers, Albert W. Me Coy, of Austin, Pa., Joseph R. Webster, and Dean L. Simpson, of Rochester. The two flower girls were the little Misses Elsie Viele and Margaret Eddy, dressed in white. After the ceremony a wedding breakfast was served at 24 Thayer Street, the future home of Mr. and Mrs. McCoy, to the members of the wedding party. The prevailing colors in the decorations at the house, as atthe church, were violet and white. Mr. and Mrs. McCoy left in the afternoon for an extended trip over the New York Central.

The Designs Submitted.
The program of competition issued by the Alumni Committee was worded so as to leave a good deal of the solution of the problem to the individual competitor. The sizes ofthe rooms were left almost entirely to the judgment of the designers. Even the uses of some of the rooms were not specified but were left to individual interpretation. This has resulted in plans which differ materially in some important considerations for instance, where one designer has a large lounging room in proportion to the auditorium, believing that the chief aim ofthe

character of domestic architecture were given preference by the judges. Very well studied designs were handed in in colonial and rather formal Renaissance, which in themselves would have been considered excellent possibly had they not been placedin competition with these freer and less restricted compositions.
The committee desires to receive criticisms on these drawings from the alumni throughout the country and after a report has been prepared, as to the wishes of a large number of the alumni, a new program of competition will be written which will contain, as far as possible, definite dimensions of rooms, with their proportions carefully studied, and with descriptions of the use to which the rooms will be put. Competition will therefore be equal from these points of view, and will rest entirely on the relative merits of the drawings as shown in the arrangement ofrooms and in the artistic composition of the exterior.
Cornell Wins the Fencing Contest With Syracuse.
At Syracuse, on Saturday, teams

The high hopes of victory which filled our breasts when the 'Varsity left Ithaca on Friday to do battle with the "Tigers" at Princeton, were rudely broken on Saturday. The game at Brokaw Field was won by Princeton mainly through the splendid fielding of the Princeton team and the pitching of Hillebrand.
The contest was brilliantly played throughout and was in great part a pitchers' battle between Hillebrand and Young, the former being the more effective.
In the field, Bedford at second for Princeton stopped liners time after time, that looked good for hits, while Kafer's catching was also a feature of the game.
Princeton scored one run in the first, on a base on balls, asteal, and a two base hit by Kafer.
In the second two bases on balls, a combination steal, and an error netted Princeton two more runs, after which no more scoring was done.
In the sixth, Cornell filled the bases, but Hillebrand's magnificent control retired the next batter on strikes.
Following is the score :
