...provisional selection of the best work of the members of the Camera Club, made by F. H. Pratt of the New York Secession at the recent exhibition, will form the basis of the University exhibit. At present the outlook for success is not bright, but when the defects brought out in the recent contest are corrected, the University will be able to present a good display...
Last night the performance was an improvement on the Graduates' night performance. The whole action progressed more smoothly and every character was brought out with increased brilliancy, showing greater confidence and understanding of the parts.

This work cannot be limited in scope to the major sports, for taken as a whole the minor...
