The exercises were closed with the presenting of diplo
mas to the thirty-six members of class ’04.
In the afternoon competitive company drill for the How
ell flag began at 4:15 P. M. This beautiful Texas flag is
presented, at each commencement to the best drilled com
pany to keep during the next session. The flag was won by
D company.
At 6:25 P. M., the last drill call for the session of ’03-04
blew for the annual graduating dress parade. During the
parade the Howell flag was presented to D company by Capt.
Sargent. With the close of the graduating dress parade,
ended the session of ’03-04.
Tuesday evening right after graduating dress parade,
Mrs. Neibert gave an informal reception to “her boys,” the
classes of ’03-04. She was assisted by Miss Mary Hutson
and Miss Helen Bittle. It would be very hard to tell how
much Mrs. Neibert’s “boys” appreciated her kindness, but
the reception will long be remembered as one of the most
pleasant incidents of a very pleasant commencement.
