Training table represents a start in the athleticizing of the debaters. Uniforms more distinctive than Tuxedos should come next; perhaps the editors of the Lampoon would offer suggestions for delicate tones of color and graceful designs of robes. Scouts at other universities, larger and handsomer platforms, overemphasis, with squads of ambitious candidates going through their paces in every room in Sever, and English A sections changed to more debating practise: a gloomy outlook, but the unavoidable result unless the process thus initiated is checked. In the interests of already overworked sporting editors, the coaches should reconsider their decision, and call...

...Henry Osborne Taylor '78. The majority of them are by Shunsho and Hiroshige, the great print artists. Two of them, by Hiroshige, are especially worthy of note. They are long and thin, well adapted to the scenes they portray. The green and purple shading is some of the finest color works to be found in the Museum...

...people who came to church that afternoon was Haldane MacFall, then a London art critic, now the author of a biography of Artist Aubrey Beardsley. His book says little about Beardsley's family, his schooldays, his friends. It conveys scarcely any of the color of the period, already so remote and glittering, in which Beardsley drew his astonishing pictures for The Yellow Book.
