I enjoyed the article by Hallie Graham ’27. I was in the first group of students to be housed in the Princeton Inn in fall 1970. As I remember, the first T-shirt created there was purple with “The Crystal Palace” emblazoned on the front. This was in honor of the crystal wall sconces in the main dining room. When the 50th reunion was held there, one of our clean-up activities was taking each crystal down and hand washing them. When we were done, the dining room glistened! I still have my shirt, but it is badly faded and the lettering is gone. Wonder if anyone out there has one in better shape.
