...concerts the Glee Club of Columbia College introduced a banjo duett, and now the Acta Columbiana desires that the college have a regular banjo club. That would do, but they should have jig dancers also. - [Progress...

In the absence of a regular trainer, men who wish to compete in any events have been compelled to rely on what instruction and training they could obtain from their friends and the few athletes in college who have volunteered their services. Such an arrangement, at the best, can be but a temporary...
