Cool, dry, breezy overcast day. Arose 8:05 A.M. Breakfast etc. Helped father. To College 9 A.M. to 12:15 M. Dinner. Candled eggs. To rhetoric 2:30 - 3:30 P.M. Cleaned and dressed up. To tea 5 P.M. Prexy's house. Supper. Studied. To bed 11:15 P.M.
**********
Don't know who Prexy is, but . . . tea? I think Prexy is the college president. There are other examples of this usage at the time. There was a President's Tea in 1951, so that could be what Stanford is jokingly referring to here. Perhaps they have them every year?
