...ballets showed careful training, and were well received. In the first one, E. B. Ahlborn '02, as La Fortune, was painfully careful and seemingly needed more practice to be altogether at his case. The "caprices" were spirited and well-drilled, but showed a great lack of lightness on their feet which detracted much from their otherwise excellent showing. The minuet was graceful and very well executed, though a little too much carelessness was shown, even for a dress rehearsal.

...Woods will be in Brooks House Tuesday and Friday mornings from 10.30 to 11.30 to confer with men who wish to engage in some form of charitable work. Those who from lack of experience are unwilling to commit themselves to regular appointments, can get information regarding the character of the philanthropic work that is being done in Boston.

The question resolves itself into this: whether we wish to go to Soldiers Field on Saturday, to see an exhibition of manly sport, or to attend a musical festival. If the visitors from New Haven deem it a good opportunity to display their vocal talent, is that necessarily a reason why we should do likewise? Let us rather wait until the end of the game, and then, if the result has justified...
