...BRIGHAM, '79, has kindly consented to sing first tenor on the Glee Club. By his courtesy the Club is much strengthened, and its first concert at Quincy, next Monday evening, cannot fail to be a success. Mr. Van Raalte will probably play a violin solo...
...RIDDLE'S reading of "Tot Plummer's First Assembly," in Lyceum Hall, last Tuesday, was a thoroughly enjoyable occasion. Mr. Grant has made a great hit, and in Mr. Riddle's hands, the piece is read to perfection. Next Tuesday he will read "The Sewing School for Scandal," by Mr. J. T.

'84 was practically no part of either college when...
...class races, as said before, will train men for the 'Varsity of the succeeding year; and if any man is good enough to row on the 'Varsity in his first year, his rowing in the class races will show it as well as six weeks' more work would; even if it did not, no man ought to be put into the 'Varsity much later than the class races, as it would take some time for him to get in with the 'Varsity men's work. Last year, after the class races, the Captain of the 'Varsity wished...
