...wise move for the Musical Clubs not to attempt a trip this year during the Christmas vacation. Last winter, after a long and strenuous campaign, permission was secured to make a trip into the Middle West at Christmas time, but it was fairly well understood at the time that the granting of the privilege should by no means be considered a precedent for future organizations. The trip last year was a success in every way. Musically, the clubs were considerably above the average and the trip afforded a good opportunity for the graduates and others interested in Harvard...
